Authors: Gleich J. , Fürmetz J. , Kamla C. , Pedersen V. , Böcker W. , Keppler A. M. 
Published: March 2020

ZusammenfassungEs wird von einem 42-jährigen Patienten berichtet, der sich bei einem opiatinduzierten Liegetrauma ein gluteales Kompartmentsyndrom mit Affektion des N. ischiadicus und nachfolgender Rhabdomyolyse zugezogen hat. Im Gegensatz zum Kompartmentsyndrom des Unterarms oder des Unterschenkels stellt dieses eine Rarität dar. Nach notfallmäßiger Kompartmentspaltung und Anlage eines Vakuumsystems zum vorübergehenden Wundverschluss konnte mittels forcierter Diurese eine Hämofiltration bei akutem Nierenversagen vermieden werden. Die Sensomotorik der unteren Extremität besserte sich bereits nach der initialen Versorgung; nach einer Woche konnte der sekundäre Wundverschluss durchgeführt werden, elf Tage nach Aufnahme konnte der Patient mit intakter Sensomotorik und normwertigen Retentionsparametern entlassen werden.
Insulin-like growth factor 1 is related to the expression of plumage traits in a passerine species

Published: March 2020

AbstractAvian plumage colors and ornaments are excellent models to study the endocrine mechanisms linking sexually selected traits and individual parameters of quality and condition. Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is an evolutionarily highly conserved peptide hormone. Its regulatory role in cell proliferation and differentiation and its high sensitivity to the nutritional state of individuals suggest it as an interesting candidate, possibly providing a link between body condition and individual capacity to grow elaborated ornamental features. We investigated whether IGF-1 levels during molting correlate with the expression of multiple ornaments in a sexually dichromatic passerine species, the bearded reedling (Panurus biarmicus). We collected blood samples of males and females shortly before the molting completed and measured the size and colors of ornamental traits. Our results indicate that in males, structural plumage colors, the size of the melanin-based ornament (beard), and tail length are independent traits. IGF-1 levels are associated with the length of the tail and the expression of male structural plumage components (UV coloration), but not the melanin-based ornament. In females, plumage color and tail length were independent traits, which were not related to IGF-1 levels. To the best of our knowledge, this study provides the first evidence that IGF-1 could play a role in the development of secondary sexual characters in a bird species.Significance statementIGF-1 is an evolutionarily highly conserved peptide hormone, which recently entered the center stage of research enquiry in evolutionary biology. It is considered as one of the key factors shaping individual life histories, but little is known about its effects on sexually selected traits. We investigated whether IGF-1 levels during molting predict the elaboration of multiple ornamental plumage traits in male and female bearded reedlings (Panurus biarmicus). Our results indicate that higher IGF-1 levels had positive effects on male structural plumage colors and tail feather length. This is the first study, bringing indication for a potential role of IGF-1 in the expression of plumage ornaments in a bird species. Our findings suggest that IGF-1 might serve as an ideal candidate to study the mechanisms linking condition and the capacity to develop sexually selected ornaments.
Der Jenaer-Stand-Stabilitäts-Score (JESS-Score)
Authors: Best N. , Nisser M. , Loudovici-Krug D. 
Published: March 2020

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Der Stand bzw. das Stehen kann neben den von Janda beschriebenen Bewegungsstereotypen ebenfalls als motorischer Prozess begriffen werden. Atypische Belastungen während des Stehens führen zur Überbeanspruchung myofaszialer Strukturen und zu Schmerz. Die Suche nach einer dezidierten Untersuchungsmöglichkeit mit der Aussicht auf individuelle Therapieempfehlungen, war Anlass für die Erarbeitung dieses Scores.

Methodik
Es wurden 80 gesunde Probanden mittels etablierter sowie anteilig neu beschriebener Testverfahren auf ihre Standstabilität hin untersucht. Die gleichgewichteten Ergebnisse wurden zu einem Score zusammengefasst und dessen Normwerte bestimmt.

Ergebnisse
Für die Altersklasse der 18- bis 44-Jährigen ist die Norm das Erfüllen von 10 der insgesamt 13 Einzelaufgaben. Für die 45- bis 59-Jährigen sind nach aktuellen Messungen 8 von 13 erreichten Punkten die Norm. In der Altersgruppe ab dem 60. Lebensjahr können bisher keine belastbaren Aussagen getroffen werden.

Diskussion
Belastbare Daten liefert die Altersgruppe bis 44 Jahre. Die Altersgruppe darüber zeigt zumindest einen deutlichen Trend. Die existierenden Tests bzw. Scores setzten sich verstärkt mit dem Sturzrisiko und der Geschicklichkeit bei Bewegungen und komplexen Aufgaben auseinander. Der Stand als motorischer Stereotyp wurde bisher noch nicht beschrieben. Nach einer Untersuchung mittels Jenaer-Stand-Stabilitäts-Score (JESS-Score) ist es möglich, Aussagen zu individuellen Therapieschwerpunkten zu treffen.

Schlussfolgerungen
Der JESS-Score stellt einen praktikablen Test zur Verifizierung des Standstereotyps dar. Die Erweiterung der Normgruppe durch Einschluss weiterer Studienteilnehmer wird über eine Verstetigung oder Modifikation der aktuellen Ergebnisse entscheiden. Die Testung weiterer Kohorten wird zeigen, inwieweit diese Items sensitiv für Veränderungen durch Trainingsmethoden sind und ob mit dem Score auch klinische Änderungen kongruent abgebildet werden können.

Abstract
Purpose
Little is known about the reason of high short-term complication rates after the subcutaneous placement of breast implants or expanders after mastectomy without biological matrices or synthetic meshes. This study aims to evaluate complications and their risk factors to develop guidelines for decreasing complication rates.

Methods
We included all cases of mastectomy followed by subcutaneous implant or expander placement between 06/2017 and 05/2018 (n = 92). Mean follow-up time was 12 months.

Results
Explantation occurred in 15 cases (16.3%). The surgeon’s preference for moderate vs. radical subcutaneous tissue resection had a significant influence on explantation rates (p = 0.026), impaired wound healing or infection (requiring surgery) (p = 0.029, p = 0.003 respectively) and major complications (p = 0.018).
Multivariate analysis revealed significant influence on complication rates for radical subcutaneous tissue resection (p up to 0.003), higher implant volume (p up to 0.023), higher drain volume during the last 24 h (p = 0.049), higher resection weight (p = 0.035) and incision type (p = 0.011).

Conclusion
Based on the significant risk factors we suggest the following guidelines to decrease complication rates: favoring thicker skin envelopes after surgical preparation, using smaller implants, removing drains based on a low output volume during the last 24 h and no use of periareolar incision with extension medial or lateral. We should consider ADMs for subcutaneous one-stage reconstructions.
The individual surgeon’s preference of subcutaneous tissue resection is of highest relevance for short-term complications—this has to be part of internal team discussions and should be considered in future trials for comparable results.
Envisioning carbon-free land use futures for Sweden: a scenario study on conflicts and synergies between environmental policy goals

Published: March 2020

AbstractIn climate change mitigation, backcasting scenarios are often used for exploring options for achieving a single environmental goal, albeit at the expense of other goals. This paper assesses potential conflicts and synergies between multiple environmental policy goals based on four future scenarios on Swedish rural land use, assuming zero GHG emissions in 2060. The assessment shows that goal conflicts are apparent, and policy makers need to make trade-offs between goals. The choice of strategy for dealing with these trade-offs yields conflicts or synergies. The assessment shows that a transition to zero GHG emissions provides opportunities for Sweden to shift to carbon free land-use planning. Overall, there are alternative ways with different underlying assumptions to achieve zero GHG emissions, which will feed discussions on new opportunities to overcome multi-scale and multi-sectoral goal conflicts. Multi-target backcasting scenarios are considered more suited to account for the multi-dimensional aspects of goal conflicts. This requires a comprehensive multi-target backcasting approach, which combines the strengths of multicriteria analysis, nexus approaches and backcasting, for supporting a transition to zero GHG emissions.
Measurement of health-related quality of life in patients with diabetes mellitus using EQ-5D-5L in Hong Kong, China
Authors: Wong Eliza Lai yi , Xu Richard Huan , Cheung Annie Wai ling 
Published: March 2020

Abstract
Purpose
This study aimed to estimate the health preference scores of the Chinese population with Diabetes Mellitus (DM) using the EQ-5D-5L Hong Kong (HK) population tariff according to different sociodemographic characteristics in HK.

Methods
Data were obtained from a cross-sectional, territory-wide study of patient experience on specialist outpatient services in a public setting in HK. The EQ-5D-5L HK was used to collect the patients’ health status. A total of 2326 respondents were reported to suffer from DM, and their information was elicited and used for the analysis in this study. A robust ANOVA method was used to compare the differences in EQ-5D-5L index scores among subgroups. Binary logistic regressions were used to predict the probability of respondents reporting full health, and ordinal least square (OLS) model was used to assess the relationship between DM and health-related quality of life (HRQoL).

Results
The mean EQ-5D-5L index score for DM patients was 0.84. A total of 229 EQ-5D health states were reported. Altogether, 47.5% of the respondents reported having some problems with pain/discomfort, followed by mobility (26.4%), usual activities (26.0%), and anxiety/depression (23.5%). Logistic regression and OLS models indicated that male and fully employed respondents were less likely to report having problems with any of the five dimensions and index score of EQ-5D than female and non-fully employed respondents. The findings of OLS model also showed that DM patients that experience comorbidity with three and more chronic conditions were more likely to show a lower index score than respondents who reported living with DM alone.

Conclusion
The EQ-5D index scores varied among DM patient characteristics and were more highly impaired with multimorbidity status. Interventions targeting at-risk subgroups, such as modifying single-diseased guidelines, might be helpful to improve their HRQoL.

Published: March 2020

Abstract
Purpose
To build a novel, open-source, purely web-based platform system to address problems in the development and clinical use of computer-assisted detection/diagnosis (CAD) software. The new platform system will replace the existing system for the development and validation of CAD software, Clinical Infrastructure for Radiologic Computation of United Solutions (CIRCUS).

Methods
In our new system, the two top-level applications visible to users are the web-based image database (CIRCUS DB; database) and the Docker plug-in-based CAD execution platform (CIRCUS CS; clinical server). These applications are built on top of a shared application programming interface server, a three-dimensional image viewer component, and an image repository.

Results
We successfully installed our new system into a Linux server at two clinical sites. A total of 1954 cases were registered in CIRCUS DB. We have been utilizing CIRCUS CS with four Docker-based CAD plug-ins.

Conclusions
We have successfully built a new version of the CIRCUS system. Our platform was successfully implemented at two clinical sites, and we plan to publish it as an open-source software project.
Multi-objective hybrid flow shop scheduling with variable discrete production speed levels and time-of-use energy prices
Authors: Schulz Sven , Buscher Udo , Shen Liji 
Published: March 2020

AbstractEnergy costs play an important role in industrial production and are closely related to environmental concerns. As sustainability aspects are coming into focus in recent years, energy-oriented objectives are increasingly being taken into account in scheduling. At the same time, requirements for punctual delivery become more and more important in times of just-in-time delivery and highly networked supply chains. In this paper, a hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with variable discrete production speed levels is considered with the aim of minimizing both energy costs and total tardiness. Although lower speeds can reduce energy consumption, they also increase processing times, which counteract the objective of punctual delivery. Two new model formulations additionally taking time-of-use energy prices into account are presented and compared. The influence of variable discrete production speed levels on energy costs, energy consumption and punctual delivery as well as the interdependencies between these objectives are analysed in a numerical case study.
Multidimensional Poverty of Children in Mozambique
Authors: Mahrt Kristi , Rossi Andrea , Salvucci Vincenzo , Tarp Finn 
Published: March 2020

AbstractWe analyse the multidimensional wellbeing of children aged 0–17 in Mozambique and find that 46.3% can be considered multidimensionally poor. A substantial divide exists between urban and rural areas and between northern and southern provinces. We compare Mozambican children’s wellbeing with that of children in other regional countries. Despite impressive gains in some indicators, multidimensional child poverty in Mozambique still substantially exceeds that in neighbouring countries. Targeted policies considering the specificities of child welfare are needed to ensure that the national-level growth and poverty reduction experienced by the population as a whole translate into better living conditions for children.
Patterns of physical activity-related health competence: stability over time and associations with subjective health indicators
Authors: Schmid Julia , Haible Stephanie , Sudeck Gorden 
Published: March 2020

Abstract
Objective
If individuals want to integrate health-enhancing physical activity in their everyday life, they need specific competences. This person-oriented study aimed to: 1) Identify patterns of physical activity-related health competence, 2) examine how structurally and individually stable these patterns are over 4 months and 3) test how changes in patterns are associated with changes in subjective health indicators.

Materials and methods
A total of 769 individuals (82% women, Mage = 27 years) were recruited from exercise courses offered by university sport. Four facets of physical activity-related health competence (control competence for physical training, physical activity-specific affect regulation, self-determined motivation for exercise, physical activity-specific self-control) and subjective health (subjective vitality and perceived fitness) were measured twice. Patterns were identified using latent profile analysis. Their stability and associations with subjective health changes were examined with latent transition analyses and a configural frequency analysis.

Results
Seven patterns of physical activity-related health competence were identified. Besides three level patterns, four shape patterns were found with differing ratings across the studied variables (e.g. average values for control competence for physical training, self-determined motivation and physical activity-specific self-control, but a high level in physical activity affect regulation). These patterns proved to be structurally stable over time. In all, 72% of the individuals stayed in the same pattern, whereas 20% moved to a more and 8% to a less competent pattern. Changes in patterns are linked to change in subjective vitality and perceived fitness.

Conclusion
The results presented here demonstrate the added value of using a person-oriented approach to investigate development of physical activity-related health competence. Furthermore, they generate knowledge for designing tailored interventions.
Evaluating scale deposition and scale tendency of effluent water mix with seawater for compatible injection water

Published: March 2020

AbstractWater injection technique is contributing millions of oil barrels on a daily basis to the global oil supply; one of the challenges faced by such an important production method is scale buildup due to the different dissolved solids and high salinity of the injected water. For produced water or effluent water, pretreatment is a critical step before the injection process to reduce the risk of scale potential and well formation damage. One of the beneficial treatments of the effluent water is to be mixed in a compatible ratio with seawater, especially for those countries with easy access to seawater. Thus, the objective is to find a compatible mix ratio with seawater as one way of solving effluent water reuse without increasing the risk of scale and formation damage during water injection operation. In this study, effluent water samples were collected from different oilfield geographical locations in Kuwait, and then the samples were analyzed in the laboratory for their physical and chemical properties to select the most compatible one for mixing with seawater. The selected effluent water was then mixed with seawater in 1:1 ratio to evaluate the compatibility of the mix in terms of sulfate formation and scale tendency. The selected North field/seawater was tested under 75 ºC and 1000 PSi in an autoclave. The filtered precipitates were characterized by energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and scanning electronic microscope (SEM) micrographs. Further, the formations of sulfate were detected by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The OLI ScaleChem software was used to investigate the composition of mineral scales that may occur in the water mix at different ratios ranging from 0 to 100% to compare it with the actual water mix finding. In the effluent waters comparison part, North field water showed low pH (4.6) and alkalinity, as well as moderate TDS (190,000 MG/L). The main constituents of the scale deposited at the selected water mixing ratio were calcium sulfate CaSO4 and silicon oxide detected by XRD. However, the amount of barium sulfate was not presented in the precipitates indicating that all of it went in the liquid phase. The study concludes that at downhole conditions, the compatible mix of North Kuwait effluent water with seawater has high risk of barium sulfate in comparison with other common scale such as calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate and strontium sulfate (SrSO4). Also the study revealed that the prediction of different seawater ratios showed that at 70% seawater concentration, the barium sulfate concentration drops and consequently the scale risk reduced.
24-h Activity Rhythms and Health in Older Adults
Authors: de Feijter Maud , Lysen Thom S. , Luik Annemarie I. 
Published: March 2020

Abstract
Purpose of Review
Circadian rhythms, including 24-h activity rhythms, change with age. Disturbances in these 24-h activity rhythms at older age have also been implied in various diseases. This review evaluates recent findings on 24-h activity rhythms and disease in older adults.

Recent Findings
Growing evidence supports that 24-h activity rhythm disturbances at older age are related to the presence and/or progression of disease. Longitudinal and genetic work even suggests a potential causal contribution of disturbed 24-h activity rhythms to disease development. Interventional studies targeting circadian and 24-h activity rhythms demonstrate that 24-h rhythmicity can be improved, but the effect of improving 24-h rhythmicity on disease risk or progression remains to be shown.

Summary
Increasing evidence suggests that 24-h activity rhythms are involved in age-related diseases. Further studies are needed to assess causality, underlying mechanisms, and the effects of treating disturbed 24-h activity rhythms on age-related disease.

Published: March 2020

AbstractMetal-fused filament fabrication is gaining traction due to its low cost and high availability compared to metal powder bed fusion. However, the achievable mechanical properties and effects of shrinkage of this process should be understood thoroughly before it can be implemented as a direct digital manufacturing technology. This study investigates the influence of infill levels and different build orientations on the mechanical properties and shrinkage behavior of 3D-printed, debinded, and sintered components made from BASF Ultrafuse 316LX. The final objective of the work is to define a function for multi-directional shrinkage prediction for any given part geometry to achieve parts with a high degree of dimensional conformity by modifying the original designs accordingly. The Design of Experiment includes tensile and compression testing according to ASTM E8 M-04 and ASTM D695-15, respectively. Tensile testing samples are manufactured in three different build directions and compression testing pins are made with six infill levels. Furthermore, a complex part is printed and its dimensional shrinkage analyzed using 3D scanning. Finally, the multi-directional shrinkage behavior is measured for all samples to establish a shrinkage predictability function by applying linear regression models. Results show that material infill levels have no effect on the shrinkage behavior of printed components. Compressive strength increases with infill level and ultimate tensile strength of parts printed flat indicates the highest tensile testing results, followed by flipped and vertically printed parts. A complex part was manufactured successfully for spare part production, which helped to establish a function with moderate confidence levels for shrinkage predictability.
