A1 - Meybohm, Patrick A1 - Wurmb, Thomas T1 - Simultaneous treatment of trauma patients in a dual room trauma suite with integrated movable sliding gantry CT system: an observational study JF - Scientific Reports N2 - The trauma center of the University Hospital Wuerzburg has developed an advanced trauma pathway based on a dual-room trauma suite with an integrated movable sliding gantry CT-system. This enables simultaneous CT-diagnostics and treatment of two trauma patients. The focus of this study was to investigate the quality of the concept based on defined outcome criteria in this specific setting (time from arrival to initiation of CT scan: tCT; time from arrival to initiation of emergency surgery: tES). We analyzed all trauma patients admitted to the hospital’s trauma suite from 1st May 2019 through 29th April 2020. Two subgroups were defined: trauma patients, who were treated without a second trauma patient present (group 1) and patients, who were treated simultaneously with another trauma patient (group 2). Simultaneous treatment was defined as parallel arrival within a period of 20 min. Of 423 included trauma patients, 46 patients (10.9%) were treated simultaneously. Car accidents were the predominant trauma mechanism in this group (19.6% vs. 47.8%, p < 0.05). Prehospital life-saving procedures were performed with comparable frequency in both groups (intubation 43.5% vs. 39%, p = 0.572); pleural drainage 3.2% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.708; cardiopulmonary resuscitation 5% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.387). At hospital admission, patients in group 2 suffered significantly more pain (E-problem according to Advanced Trauma Life Support principles©; 29.2% vs. 45.7%, p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the clinical treatment (emergency procedures, vasopressor and coagulant therapy, and transfusion of red blood cells). tCT was 6 (4–10) minutes (median and IQR) in group 1 and 8 (5–15.5) minutes in group 2 (p = 0.280). tES was 90 (78–106) minutes in group 1 and 99 (97–108) minutes in group 2 (p = 0.081). The simultaneous treatment of two trauma patients in a dual-room trauma suite with an integrated movable sliding gantry CT-system requires a medical, organizational, and technical concept adapted to this special setting. Despite the oftentimes serious and life-threatening injuries, optimal diagnostic and therapeutic procedures can be guaranteed for two simultaneous trauma patients at an individual medical level in consistent quality.

T1 - Six commonly used postoperative radiographic alignment parameters do not predict clinical outcome scores after unrestricted caliper-verified kinematically aligned TKA JF - Journal of Personalized Medicine N2 - Background: Unrestricted caliper-verified kinematically aligned (KA) TKA restores patient’s prearthritic coronal and sagittal alignments, which have a wide range containing outliers that concern the surgeon practicing mechanical alignment (MA). Therefore, knowing which radiographic parameters are associated with dissatisfaction could help a surgeon decide whether to rely on them as criteria for revising an unhappy patient with a primary KA TKA using MA principles. Hence, we determined whether the femoral mechanical angle (FMA), hip–knee–ankle angle (HKAA), tibial mechanical angle (TMA), tibial slope angle (TSA), and the indicators of patellofemoral tracking, including patella tilt angle (PTA) and the lateral undercoverage of the trochlear resection (LUCTR), are associated with clinical outcome scores. Methods: Forty-three patients with a CT scan and skyline radiograph after a KA TKA with PCL retention and medial stabilized design were analyzed. Linear regression determined the strength of the association between the FMA, HKA angle, PTS, PTA, and LUCTR and the forgotten joint score (FJS), Oxford knee score (OKS), and KOOS Jr score obtained at a mean of 23 months. Results: There was no correlation between the FMA (range 2° varus to −10° valgus), HKAA (range 10° varus to −9° valgus), TMA (range 10° varus to −0° valgus), TSA (range 14° posterior to −4° anterior), PTA (range, −10° medial to 14° lateral), and the LUCTR resection (range 2 to 9 mm) and the FJS (median 83), the OKS (median 44), and the KOOS Jr (median 85) (r = 0.000 to 0.079). Conclusions: Surgeons should be cautious about using postoperative FMA, HKAA, TMA, TSA, PTA, and LUCTR values within the present study’s reported ranges to explain success and dissatisfaction after KA TKA.

T1 - Six Sesamoid Bones on Both Feet: Report of a Rare Case JF - Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research N2 - There is a variation of the total number of distinct bones in the human in the literature. This difference is mainly caused by the variable existence of sesamoid bones. Sesamoid bones at the first MTP are seen regularly. In contrast additional sesamoid bones at the divond to fifth MTP are rare. We report a case of additional sesamoid bones at every metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP) of both feet. A 22-year-old female Caucasian presented with weight-dependent pain of the divond MTP of the left foot. In the radiographs of both feet additional sesamoid bones at every MTP could be seen. This case reports a very rare variation in human anatomy. A similar case has not been displayed to the academic society and therefore should be acknowledged.

In contrast to SQUAD, there is systematic and not just heuristic calculation of all system states. These specific features are not present in CellNetAnalyzer and BoolNet. JimenaE is an expert extension of Jimena, with new optimized code, network conversion into different formats, rapid convergence both for system state calculation as well as for all three network centralities. It allows higher accuracy in determining network states and allows to dissect networks and identification of network control type and amount for each protein with high accuracy. Biological examples demonstrate this: (i) High plasticity of mesenchymal stromal cells for differentiation into chondrocytes, osteoblasts and adipocytes and differentiation-specific network control focusses on wnt-, TGF-beta and PPAR-gamma signaling. JimenaE allows to study individual proteins, removal or adding interactions (or autocrine loops) and accurately quantifies effects as well as number of system states. (ii) Dynamical modelling of cell–cell interactions of plant Arapidopsis thaliana against Pseudomonas syringae DC3000: We analyze for the first time the pathogen perspective and its interaction with the host. We next provide a detailed analysis on how plant hormonal regulation stimulates specific proteins and who and which protein has which type and amount of network control including a detailed heatmap of the A.thaliana response distinguishing between two states of the immune response. (iii) In an immune response network of dendritic cells confronted with Aspergillus fumigatus, JimenaE calculates now accurately the specific values for centralities and protein-specific network control including chemokine and pattern recognition receptors.

Dazu wurde in den medizinischen Datenbanken Medline und Pubmed nach relevanten Studien recherchiert. Nach der Literaturselektion entsprechend festgelegter Auswahlkriterien konnten 44 Studien im Zeitraum von 1962 bis 2005 in die Bewertung einfließen. Diese wurden der Evidenzhierarchie nach der Cochrane Collaboration zugeordnet. Entsprechend der Evidenzstärken und der kritischen Beurteilung der externen und internen Validität wurden die einzelnen Stabilisierungshilfen bewertet. Dabei zeigt sich, dass ältere, weit verbreitete und langzeiterprobte Maßnahmen wie der adhäsive Tape- Verband innovativeren und ausbaufähigen Methoden wie dem propriozeptiven Training weichen. In diesem sensomotorischen Bereich konnten übereinstimmend positive und größtenteils signifikante Ergebnisse ermittelt werden. Auch die Anwendung semirigider und rigider Orthesen zeigte bei der Mehrzahl der Studien einen signifikanten Supinationsschutz. Der präventive Effekt von (Schnür-) Bandagen äußerte sich vornehmlich in der Verbesserung der propriozeptiven Fähigkeiten vor allem instabiler Sprunggelenke. Beim Tape-Verband steht die initiale signifikante Supinationsrestriktion im Vordergrund, was unter anderem mit den Materialeigenschaften sowie vielfältigen und eingeschränkt reproduzierbaren Techniken begründet wird. Die Untersuchungen zu Schuhen unterschiedlicher Schafthöhen konnten keine übereinstimmend signifikanten Ergebnisse liefern. N2 - In the submitted paper, the purpose was to assess the effectivity of different external stabilizers (taping, orthesis, bandage and shoes) to prevent ankle injuriers doing a metha-analysis. From the medical databases Medline and Pubmed 44 studies werer chosen between 1962-2005 and were assessed following the evidence-criteria of the Cochrane Collaboration. This has shown that the older more common and longterm-proven methods, such as adhesive taping are now slowly being replaced by more innovative and improving methods. One of these is proprioceptive training. The preventive effect of bandages was mainly characterized by the improvement of proprioceptive abilities, above all for unstable ankles. Where semirigid and rigid braces have been used, a significant supination protection was shown in the majority of the studies as well.

Es wurden 48 Patienten und 53 Hüften mit primärer Hüftdysplasie nachuntersucht. Das mittlere Nachuntersuchungsintervall betrug 2 Jahre, 9 Monate und das mittlere Alter zum Zeitpunkt der Operation lag bei 24 Jahren (11-43 Jahre). Klinische und funktionelle Parameter wurden mittels Harris Hip Score bewertet. 59 Prozent zeigten dabei sehr gute Ergebnisse, 9 Prozent gute und 13 Prozent zufriedenstellende Ergebnisse. Im Harris Hip Score konnte eine signifikante Verbesserung von 66 Punkten auf 83,5 Punkten im Mittel gesehen werden. Subjektiv waren 92 Prozent der Patienten mit dem Operationsergebnis sehr zufrieden oder zufrieden. In 79 Prozent wurde eine signifikante Schmerzreduktion nach der dreifachen Beckenosteotomie beobachtet. Die radiologische Auswertung erfolgte durch die Ermittlung der prä- und postoperativen CE-Winkel (Wiberg), VCA-Winkel (Lequesne, De Seze) und TF-Winkel (Bombelli). Der CE-Winkel vergrößerte sich durchschnittlich von 10,6° auf 32,3°, der VCA-Winkel wurde signifikant von 18,6° auf 33,5° verbessert und der TF-Winkel verkleinerte sich signifikant von 20,8° auf 3,8° im Mittel. In keinem Fall wurde eine Verschlechterung der Osteoarthrose gesehen. Die Autoren mußten einige Komplikationen zur Kenntnis nehmen; heterotope Ossifikation in der pelvitrochanteren Muskulatur ohne klinische Symptome bei 27 Patienten, Dysfunktion des N. cutaneus femoris lateralis bei 19 Patienten. Es zeigten sich drei Pseudarthrosen im Os pubis und zwei Pseudarthrosen im Os ischium und eine kombinierte Scham-und Sitzbeinpseudarthrose. Unsere Nachuntersuchungsergebnisse zeigen die Effizienz der dreifachen Beckenosteotomie nach Tönnis in der Verbesserung der Position des dysplastischen Acetabulums und in der Schmerzreduktion bei einer großen Prozentzahl der Patienten. N2 - In this study we compare the preoperative situation of the dysplastic hip with the postoperative clinical, functional and radiological results after Triple Pelvic Osteotomy by Tönnis in juveniles and adults. The results were evaluated for 48 patients and 53 hips with developemental hip dysplasia. The mean follow-up was 2 years, 9 months and the mean age at operation was 24 years (11-43 years). Clinical and functional criteria was scored by Harris Hip Score. 59 per cent showed very good results, 9 per cent good results and 13 per cent satisfaying results. The Harris Hip Score improved significantly from mean 66 points to 83,5 points. Subjectively 92 per cent of the patients were completely satisfied or satisfied with the operation results. In 79 per cent we saw a significant reduction in pain after Triple Pelvic Osteotomy. The radiographic evaluation included determination of pre- and postoperative center-edge-angle (Wiberg), anterior-center-edge-angle (Lequesne, De Seze) and acetabular angle of weight baring zone (Bombelli). Center-edge-angle improved significantly from mean 10,6° to 32,2°, anterior-center-edge-angle increased from mean 18,6° to 33,5° and acetabular-angle of weight baring zone decreased from mean 20,8° to 3,8° significantly. No deterioration of osteoarthrosis was seen in any case. The authors noticed following complications; heterotopic ossification in the pelvitrochanteric muscels without clinical symptoms in 27 patients, dysfunction of femoral cutaneus nerve in 19 patients. Three pseudarthrosis in Os pubis and two pseudarthrosis in Os ischium and one combined pseudarthrosis in Ischium and Pubis were seen. Our follow-up results demonstrate the efficacy of Triple Pelvic Osteotomy by Tönnis in improving the position of dysplastic acetabulum and in minimize pain in a large percentage of patients.

A1 - Rudert, Maximilian A1 - Nöth, Ulrich T1 - Stem cell- and growth factor-based regenerative therapies for avascular necrosis of the femoral head JF - Stem Cell Research & Therapy N2 - Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a debilitating disease of multifactorial genesis, predominately affects young patients, and often leads to the development of secondary osteoarthritis. The evolving field of regenerative medicine offers promising treatment strategies using cells, biomaterial scaffolds, and bioactive factors, which might improve clinical outcome. Early stages of AVN with preserved structural integrity of the subchondral plate are accessible to retrograde surgical procedures, such as core decompression to reduce the intraosseous pressure and to induce bone remodeling. The additive application of concentrated bone marrow aspirates, ex vivo expanded mesenchymal stem cells, and osteogenic or angiogenic growth factors (or both) holds great potential to improve bone regeneration. In contrast, advanced stages of AVN with collapsed subchondral bone require an osteochondral reconstruction to preserve the physiological joint function. Analogously to strategies for osteochondral reconstruction in the knee, anterograde surgical techniques, such as osteochondral transplantation (mosaicplasty), matrix-based autologous chondrocyte implantation, or the use of acellular scaffolds alone, might preserve joint function and reduce the need for hip replacement. This review summarizes recent experimental accomplishments and initial clinical findings in the field of regenerative medicine which apply cells, growth factors, and matrices to address the clinical problem of AVN.

However, revision rates are higher in comparison to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). One reason is suboptimal fitting of conventional off-the-shelf prostheses, and major overhang of the tibial component over the bone has been reported in up to 20% of cases. In this retrospective study, a total of 537 patient-specific UKAs (507 medial prostheses and 30 lateral prostheses) that had been implanted in 3 centers over a period of 10 years were analyzed for survival, with a minimal follow-up of 1 year (range 12 to 129 months). Furthermore, fitting of the UKAs was analyzed on postoperative X-rays, and tibial overhang was quantified. A total of 512 prostheses were available for follow-up (95.3%). Overall survival rate (medial and lateral) of the prostheses after 5 years was 96%. The 30 lateral UKAs showed a survival rate of 100% at 5 years. The tibial overhang of the prosthesis was smaller than 1 mm in 99% of cases. In comparison to the reported results in the literature, our data suggest that the patient-specific implant design used in this study is associated with an excellent midterm survival rate, particularly in the lateral knee compartment, and confirms excellent fitting.

Methods In the present study, we induced the overexpression of the growth factors bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and/or Indian hedgehog (IHH) in human MSCs by adenoviral transduction to increase their osteogenic potential. GFP and nontransduced MSCs served as controls. The influence of the respective genetic modification on cell metabolic activity, proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization in cell culture, and osteogenic marker gene expression was investigated. Results Transduction had no negative influence on cell metabolic activity or proliferation. ALP activity showed a typical rise-and-fall pattern with a maximal activity at day 14 and 21 after osteogenic induction. Enzyme activity was significantly higher in groups cultured with osteogenic media. The overexpression of BMP-2 and especially IHH + BMP-2 resulted in a significantly higher mineralization after 28 days. This was in line with obtained quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analyses, which showed a significant increase in osteopontin and osteocalcin expression for osteogenically induced BMP-2 and IHH + BMP-2 transduced cells when compared with the other groups. Moreover, an increase in runx2 expression was observed in all osteogenic groups toward day 21. It was again more pronounced for BMP-2 and IHH + BMP-2 transduced cells cultured in osteogenic media. Conclusions In summary, viral transduction did not negatively influence cell metabolic activity and proliferation. The overexpression of BMP-2 in combination with or without IHH resulted in an increased deposition of mineralized extracellular matrix, and expression of osteogenic marker genes. Viral transduction therefore represents a promising means to increase the osteogenic potential of MSCs and the combination of different transgenes may result in synergistic effects.
