    Abstract Introduction: Scapholunate instability frequently leads to chronic pain or even severe osteoarthritis of the wrist. Most favored reconstruction techniques of chronic SL-ligament injuries are based on the usage of a tendon, although there is still a lack of consensus which technique is superior.
    Materials and methods: In a retrospective cohort analysis we compared 9 patients who underwent SL-ligament repair according to Van den Abbeele and 12 patients who underwent modified three ligament tenodesis according to Garcia-Elias, performed at a single institution.
    Results: Follow-up of Van den Abbeele group was 36-120 months and 13-39 months in the Garcia Elias cohort. Although both techniques showed good functional outcome in most cases, modified three ligament tenodesis seemed to be advantageous regarding wrist range of motion (162°) compared to Van den Abbeele cohort (87°). Moreover, pain score showed significant differences between the two cohorts during follow up (VAS Van den Abbeele 4.2; VAS Garcia Elias 1.7). Interestingly, DASH-score (16.1 Van den Abbeele; 16.8 Garcia Elias) and modified mayo wrist score (72 Van den Abbeele; 69 Garcia-Elias) did not show any differences between the two patient cohorts.
    Conclusions: Via implementation of modified three ligament tenodesis as a standard of care for our patients we could improve the functional outcome after SL-ligament injuries and effectively decrease postoperative pain.

    Abstract Objective: Non-invasive Remote Ischemic Conditioning (RIC) offers an approach to reduce tissue damage in various organs/tissues. Besides attenuation of Ischemia-Reperfusion injury (I/R), beneficial effects on cutaneous microcirculation of free microsurgical flaps have been reported. Given the recency of this technique, there are considerable gaps in the current understanding of its mechanism of action. As a result, clinical transfer of RIC is prolongated in several fields. We aimed to optimize the RIC protocol by examination of different RIC-cycle numbers and its effect on changes of cutaneous microcirculation and duration.
    Methods: 80 subjects were divided into groups (1, 3, 5, 7 RIC cycles). RIC was applied via an inflatable tourniquet. Cutaneous microcirculation was continuously assessed at the contralateral anterior lateral thigh utilizing a ©O2C-device continuously.
    Results: RIC caused significant and sustained changes in microcirculation. Four hours after completion of RIC, a maximum increase of +80.8% (CI 1.395-2.221) in blood flow and +23.5% (CI 1.098-1.372) in tissue oxygen saturation was measured (three-cycle group). A higher number of applied cycles was accompanied with significant higher mean pain.
    Conclusion: Acute improvement of cutaneous microcirculation due to RIC lasted for at least 4 h after completion of the RIC-protocol. Dose-dependent effects of RIC are likely. With regard to the increase in pain, we recommend a RIC protocol of 3 cycles for future clinical application.

    Abstract Introduction: Patients experiencing thermal injuries with an extent of over 20% of total body surface area suffer from systemic catabolic disease. The thermal trauma-induced loss of muscle mass causes a higher incidence for comorbidities and subsequently a higher mortality. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of myostatin in the interplay with follistatin during muscle cachexia.
    Methods: Patients with burn injuries (>10% total body surface area) between the ages of 18 and 75 were prospectively included within the first 48 h after trauma to determine deviations of parameters connected to muscle catabolism. In the chronic state of burn injury (9-12 months after trauma), we re-evaluated myostatin and follistatin concentrations as well as muscle strength of the non-dominant forearm.
    Results: We were able to show a time-dependent alteration (9-12 months after burn injury) of myostatin with an initial decrease (
    Conclusion: With regard to the muscle metabolism after thermal trauma, our data suggest an acute anabolic response, presumably to spare muscle mass, which is converted to catabolic conditions accompanied by muscle strength reduction in the chronic phase. Myostatin plays a crucial role in this orchestration and initial myostatin concentration may predict the long-term muscle strength.

    Abstract Enacted into law by Congress in August 1996, the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) is the most significant piece of federal pesticide legislation since the 1988 amendments to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act. FQPA was hastily drafted and approved towards the end of the 1996 Congressional session. The new law was advertised as resolving some long-standing problems; however, it is clear now that it has also created some new ones. Since the FQPA's passage, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has issued numerous rules and regulations that are being used to evaluate and judge the safety of pesticide use on foods. This article discusses some of the major provisions of the new law and their impact to the U.S. pesticide industry.

    Title translation Regulation of bone metabolism by the Wnt signaling pathway.
    Abstract The development and homeostasis of multicellular organisms depends on a complex cellular interaction between proliferation, migration, differentiation, adhesion, and cell death. Wnt signaling pathways coordinate these different cellular responses. Wnt signaling plays a role as a regulatory pathway in the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. The Wnt signaling pathway is an attractive therapeutic target with the potential to directly modulate stem cells responsible for the regeneration of skeletal tissue. Recent studies indicate that Wnt ligands are capable of promoting bone growth, suggesting that Wnt factors could be used to stimulate bone healing in osteogenic disorders.

    Abstract The RSH SPECT scanner provides parallel-beam attenuated projections for a fully 3D acquisition geometry. The geometry can be represented by circles on the unit sphere of projection directions, one circle for each position of the detector head. Unlike most other fully 3D geometries this one is particularly challenging because there are no 2D subsets in the data. When no attenuation is present, it is well known that an unmeasured projection can be synthesized if it lies inside one of the measured circles. The main result of this work is that under some assumptions on the attenuation distribution, attenuated projections within a circle can be synthesized from available attenuated projections. One consequence is that RSH SPECT projections can be rebinned into a conventional SPECT geometry for which analytic attenuation correction techniques are available.
