Festschrift zum 6. Würzburger Wirtschaftssymposium N2 - Am Montag, den 29. November 2010 fand das 6. Würzburger Wirtschaftssymposium unter dem Leitmotiv "Chef, lass uns mal Kultur machen!" statt. Die gemeinnützige Veranstaltung versteht sich seit jeher als Ort der Begegnung und des gemeinsamen Gedankenaustauschs, Studenten und Mitarbeiter aller Fachbereiche nahmen ebenso teil wie interessierte Bürger außerhalb der Würzburger Hochschulen. Die Festschrift enthält Interviews mit sowie Gastbeiträge von Referenten des 6. Würzburger Wirtschaftssymposiums. Darüber hinaus greifen Gastbeiträge von Experten aus Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft, Politik und Gesellschaft weitere Facetten auf und stellen das Thema damit auf eine breitere Grundlage.

We show that China's growth model, with its dominant role of the banking system and "the banker", is a perfect illustration of the necessity and power of Schumpeter's "monetary analysis". This approach has allowed us to elaborate theoretically and empirically the uniqueness of the Chinese model. In our empirical analysis, we use a new dataset of Chinese provincial data to analyze the impact of the financial system, especially banks, on Chinese economic development. We also empirically assess the role of the financial system in Chinese industrial policy and provide case studies of the effects of industrial policy in specific sectors. Finally, we also discuss macroeconomic dimensions of the Chinese growth process and lessons that can be drawn from the Chinese experience for other countries. T3 - Würzburg Economic Papers (W. E.

T1 - International Network of Chronic Kidney Disease cohort studies (iNET-CKD): a global network of chronic kidney disease cohorts JF - BMC Nephrology N2 - Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health burden, yet it is still underrepresented within public health agendas in many countries. Studies focusing on the natural history of CKD are challenging to design and conduct, because of the long time-course of disease progression, a wide variation in etiologies, and a large amount of clinical variability among individuals with CKD. With the difference in health-related behaviors, healthcare delivery, genetics, and environmental exposures, this variability is greater across countries than within one locale and may not be captured effectively in a single study. Methods Studies were invited to join the network. Prerequisites for membership included: 1) observational designs with a priori hypotheses and defined study objectives, patient-level information, prospective data acquisition and collection of bio-samples, all focused on predialysis CKD patients; 2) target sample sizes of 1,000 patients for adult cohorts and 300 for pediatric cohorts; and 3) minimum follow-up of three years. Participating studies were surveyed regarding design, data, and biosample resources. Results Twelve prospective cohort studies and two registries covering 21 countries were included. Participants age ranges from >2 to >70 years at inclusion, CKD severity ranges from stage 2 to stage 5. Patient data and biosamples (not available in the registry studies) are measured yearly or biennially. Many studies included multiple ethnicities; cohort size ranges from 400 to more than 13,000 participants. Studies’ areas of emphasis all include but are not limited to renal outcomes, such as progression to ESRD and death. Conclusions iNET-CKD (International Network of CKD cohort studies) was established, to promote collaborative research, foster exchange of expertise, and create opportunities for research training. Participating studies have many commonalities that will facilitate comparative research; however, we also observed substantial differences. The diversity we observed across studies within this network will be able to be leveraged to identify genetic, behavioral, and health services factors associated with the course of CKD. With an emerging infrastructure to facilitate interactions among the investigators of iNET-CKD and a broadly defined research agenda, we are confident that there will be great opportunity for productive collaborative investigations involving cohorts of individuals with CKD.

Etablierte Sternum-Verschluss-Systeme fangen longitudinale Scherkräfte zwischen den beiden Sternumhälften nur eingeschränkt ab. Für die Entwicklung stabilerer Verschlusssysteme sind zusätzliche Informationen über die Sternumanatomie erforderlich. Methode: Single-Center Kohortenanalyse von Patienten, die sich einer Sternotomie für einen elektiven chirurgischen Eingriff unterzogen haben. Datengrundlage waren die präoperativ angefertigten CT-Thorax-Aufnahmen sowie der postoperative klinische Verlauf. Mittels definierter Messpunkte wurden Länge, Wölbung, Breite und Dicke des Sternums sowie die Ausdehnung der angrenzenden Rippen und Interkostalräume erfasst. Weitere statistische Untersuchungen umfassten die Suche nach Korrelationen der einzelnen Sternummesswerte untereinander, die Überprüfung möglicher Einflussfaktoren auf die Sternumausdehnung (Geschlecht, Körpergröße, Alter, COPD-Erkrankung, BMI) sowie das Auftreten einer sternalen Wundheilungsstörung. Ergebnis: Von insgesamt 120 Patienten lag eine CT-Bildgebung vor Sternotomie vor. Patienten mit vorbestehenden anatomischen Variationen und von einer longitudinalen medianen Sternotomie abweichendem Zugangsweg wurden ausgeschlossen, sodass 83 Patienten in die Analyse eingingen (51% weiblich; 73 ± 10 Jahre; 167 ± 9 cm). Aus jedem CT-Datensatz wurden 40 Messpunkte für jedes Sternum erhoben. Höhergradige Korrelationen der einzelnen Sternumparameter untereinander konnten nicht festgestellt werden. Den größten Einflussfaktor auf die Sternumanatomie stellt das Geschlecht dar. Körpergrößen-, alters- und gewichtsspezifische Modulationen der Sternumanatomie sowie ein Einfluss durch eine COPD-Erkrankung konnten nicht nachgewiesen werden. 5 Patienten (6%) entwickelten postoperativ eine oberflächliche oder tiefe Wundheilungsstörung. Eine Aussage über Anatomie-bedingte Risikofaktoren für eine postoperative sternale Wundheilungsstörung kann aufgrund der kleinen Fallzahl nicht gemacht werden. Schlussfolgerung: Die Größenausdehnung des Sternums in allen drei Raumebenen ist sehr individuell ausgeprägt. Die anhand der klinischen CT-Bildgebung erarbeitete Datenmatrix ist Grundlage für die Konfektionierung neuer Verschluss-Systeme für den operativen Sternumverschluss. N2 - Objectives: After a sternotomy, both sternal halves must be fixed sufficiently to each other. Longitudinal shear forces between the sternal halves cannot be retained adequately by established sternal closure systems. For the development of more stable sternal closure systems, additional information about the sternal anatomy is required. Methods: Single-center cohort study of patients who underwent an elective surgical procedure with sternotomy. The data basis consisted of the preoperatively acquired CT-thorax- images and the postoperative clinical data. Length, breadth and thickness of the sternum, as well as the extent of the adjacent intercostal spaces and ribs were measured. These values are, henceforth, referred to as sternal values. Statistical analyses examining the correlations between the measured sternal values (between length and breadth, length and thickness, breath and thickness), testing of potential impact factors (gender, body height, age, obesity, COPD) on the physical sternal extent and occurrence of sternal wound healing disorders were performed. Results: CT-thorax-images were available for analyses from a total number of 120 patients, of which patients with preexisting anatomical variations, malformations, and deformations of the thorax or sternum and surgical approaches other than a medial sternotomy, were excluded. Thus, 83 patients were included (51% female, age: 73 ± 10 years; body height: 167 ± 9 cm). From every CT-thorax-dataset, 40 sternal values were determined, from which no strong correlations between those values were observed. The most important impact factor on the physical sternal extent was the gender of a person. An impact of body height, age, obesity and COPD could not be detected. 5 patients (6%) developed a sternal wound healing disorder. Due to this small number of cases, risk factors for postoperative sternal would healing disorders based on the sternal anatomy could not be evaluated. Conclusions: The sternal extent and constitution varies in a patient-dependent manner. Data obtained from CT-thorax-images, might serve as the basis for the development of new sternal closure systems in future.
