  abstract  = {This compilation focuses on adolescent mental disorders and their prevention. It comprises three distinct studies, each contributing to a deeper understanding of this critical topic. This work addresses a critical gap in the understanding of, and approach to, adolescent mental health, and as a result reveals a critically important and urgently needed policy implication for action. The thematic structure of these studies begins with an examination of the epidemiology of child and adolescent mental disorders. Baseline data were collected from N = 877 adolescents with a mean age of 12.43 years (SD = 0.65). Mental health problems, such as depressive symptoms, non-suicidal self-injury, suicidal ideation, symptoms of eating disorders, and gender differences, are thoroughly examined. Results revealed a significant portion of our sample displaying mental health problems as early as the 6th and 7th grades, with girls generally being more affected than boys. The findings underscore the importance of early adolescence in the emergence of mental health problems and thereby emphasize the need for preventive measures. Moving beyond prevalence estimates, the compilation delves into the etiology of these disorders, exploring their potential correlation with a COVID-19 infection. Understanding the early signs and risk factors is crucial for timely support. While numerous studies have investigated potential risk and protective factors during the pandemic, our focus shifts to adolescents' coping when an infection with the virus was involved (N = 2,154, M = 12.31, SD = 0.67). We hypothesized that students infected or with close family members infected, would exhibit an increased psychopathology and a decreased functioning of protective factors such as self-efficacy or self-esteem. We found no connection between infection and the mental health status within our sample, but protective factors and mental well-being were positively associated. Thus, universal primary prevention appears to be the preferred approach for promoting mental health. Lastly, the compilation introduces LessStress, a noteworthy contribution to more evidence-based prevention programs. This universal approach is designed to reduce stress in schools, accompanied by a cluster-randomized trial to evaluate its effectiveness (estimated sample size N = 1,894). Existing studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of stress prevention, leading us to introduce a short and easy-to-implement prevention program. There is positive evidence for one-lesson interventions in schools for promoting well-being and health behaviors among adolescents. LessStress is designed based on a life skills approach that not only imparts psychoeducational content but also teaches skills relevant to everyday life and directly applicable. Throughout these studies, a common thread emerges: the pressing need to address mental disorders during childhood and adolescence. These formative years play a pivotal role in the development of mental health problems. These formative years play a crucial role in the development of mental health problems. They highlight the importance of epidemiological data collection and analysis based on the latest models to develop prevention interventions that are not only effective but also reach young people on a global level.},

  abstract  = {Background: Revision in failed shoulder arthroplasty often requires removal of the humeral component with a significant risk of fracture and bone loss. Newer modular systems allow conversion from anatomic to reverse shoulder arthroplasty with retention of a well-fixed humeral stem. We report on a prospectively evaluated series of conversions from hemiarthroplasty to reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Methods: In 14 cases of failed hemiarthroplasty due to rotator cuff deficiency and painful pseudoparalysis (in 13 women), revision to reverse shoulder arthroplasty was performed between October 2006 and 2010, with retention of the humeral component using modular systems. Mean age at the time of operation was 70 (56-80) years. Pre- and postoperative evaluation followed a standardized protocol including Constant score, range of motion, and radiographic analysis. Mean follow-up time was 2.5 (2-5.5) years. Results: Mean Constant score improved from 9 (2-16) to 41 (17-74) points. Mean lengthening of the arm was 2.6 (0.9-4.7) cm without any neurological complications. One patient required revision due to infection. Interpretation Modular systems allow retainment of a well-fixed humeral stem with good outcome. There is a risk of excessive humeral lengthening.},

  abstract  = {Die vorliegende Arbeit liefert einen historischen Abriss {\"u}ber Erkl{\"a}rungsmodelle des Down- Syndroms im Zeitraum von 1866 bis 1959. Es wird dargestellt, wie ausgehend von Einzelsymptomen das Syndrom Down definiert wurde und welche Thesen in Bezug auf {\"A}tiologie und Pathogenese aufgestellt werden. Dem Down-Syndrom liegt nach heutigem Wissen eine autosomale Chromosomenaberration zugrunde. Statt einer zweifachen Ausf{\"u}hrung des Autosoms 21 liegt ein weiteres Chromosom 21 vor, man spricht von einer Trisomie 21. Der Ph{\"a}notyp des Down-Syndroms ist schon seit mindestens 150 Jahren bekannt, m{\"o}glicherweise existierten sogar bereits im Zeitalter der Jungsteinzeit die ersten Krankheitsf{\"a}lle. Der Erstbeschreiber J. L. H. Down war medizinischer Leiter eines Heimes f{\"u}r geistig Behinderte und stellte eine scheinbare {\"A}hnlichkeit zwischen seinen Patienten und bestimmten Menschenrassen fest. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten wurden verschiedenste Theorien zur {\"A}tiopathogenese der Trisomie 21 aufgestellt. 1959, mehr als 20 Jahren nachdem Waardenburg (1932) auf die M{\"o}glichkeit einer Chromosomenaberration hinwies, entdecken Lejeune und seine Mitarbeiter ein zus{\"a}tzliches Chromosom im Karyogramm von Down-Patienten: 47 Chromosomen anstelle von 46 Chromosomen, Trisomie.},
