Published: June 2017

AbstractHip resection arthroplasty (HRA) is a relatively uncommon, yet viable surgical procedure originally developed by Girdlestone for osteomyelitis of the proximal femur. Currently, HRA is primarily indicated as a salvage procedure after a failed total hip arthroplasty. Despite a continuous rise in the rates of primary and revision hip arthroplasty, there is a lack of published evidence regarding the extent of HRA's current use and its recent trends. We sought to provide an epidemiological description of the recent utilization patterns of HRA in the United States. A level of evidence IV, retrospective case series review of the entire Medicare files between 2005 and 2012 was conducted through the use of current procedural terminology codes and International Classification of Disease ninth edition codes. Linear regressions and chi-square tests were used for analysis. Subgroup analysis was performed by patient age. The total number of HRAs performed between 2005 and 2012 significantly decreased from 4,248 to 3,872 (p = 0.025). There was a significant increase in the annual incidence of HRA among patients younger than 65 years (p = 0.027; 9% increase) and patients 65 to 69 years old (p = 0.007; 22% increase), constituting 43% of the total patients. There was a significant decrease in HRA incidence among patients 80 to 84 years old (p = 0.001; 32% decrease) and patients 85 years old and over (p = 0.002; 24% decrease). Geographic analysis demonstrated the most HRA procedures were performed in the South, whereas gender focused analysis demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in HRA incidence for females (p = 0.003; 6% decrease) and a significant increase in incidence for males (p = 0.003; 7% increase). The overall annual incidence of HRA performed in the Medicare patient population has significantly decreased in recent years. However, this conceals an increased incidence among the relatively younger patient population. Potential causes for these opposing trends include changes in rates of revision surgery, alternative indications for surgery, advances in hardware, and surgeon expertise. This was a level of evidence IV, retrospective case series study.
Der Stroop-Interference-NoGo-Test (STING) – Ein schnelles Screeningverfahren zur globalen Erfassung neuropsychologischer Beeinträchtigungen
Authors: Fehlmann Bernhard , Jokeit Hennric 
Published: June 2017

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund Mit dem Stroop-Interference-NoGo-Test (STING) legen wir ein Screening-Instrument vor, das der zeitökonomischen und sensitiven Erfassung von kognitiven Beeinträchtigungen dient. Entstanden ist das Vorhaben dieser Testentwicklung vor dem Hintergrund einer weiteren Ökonomisierung von Diagnostik und Therapie in Spitälern und Praxen einerseits und der gestiegenen Bedeutung kognitiver Beeinträchtigungen für die Lebensqualität und die berufliche Integration andererseits. Etablierte kognitive Screeningverfahren wie MoCA, MMSE oder CAMCOG erfordern einen höheren zeitlichen Aufwand oder sind nur eingeschränkt sensitiv bezüglich leicht bis mittelgradiger Beeinträchtigungen in bedeutsamen Domänen.
Methoden Dem STING-Test liegt die Idee eines Omnibus-Tests zugrunde. Er integriert attentionale, lexikalisch-semantische, Speed- und inhibitorische Komponenten. Dabei werden eine individuelle sensomotorische Basiskomponente und eine höhere kognitiv/exekutive Komponente getrennt erhoben und erlauben, eine kognitive von einer unspezifisch generalisierten oder rein sensomotorischen Beeinträchtigung zu differenzieren. Der Test wurde an einer Stichprobe von 907 Probanden, aufgeteilt nach Alter und Bildung, normiert. Seine Diskriminationsleistung wurde untersucht an 64 Patienten (32 M, 32 F) mit vorwiegend leichten bis moderaten neuropsychologischen Auffälligkeiten.
Ergebnisse Die Merkmalskonstanz liegt im Wesentlichen bei r = .82–.95, die Bedingungskonstanz in parallelen Messungen bei r = .82–.91. Die Zeitkonstanz wird in einer Teilstichprobe niedriger (r = .48–.81) geschätzt. Übungseffekte treten im moderaten Rahmen auf (7–12 %). Der STING weist Zusammenhänge mit verwandten Testverfahren auf, wobei er sich von reinen Intelligenztests abgrenzt. Für die Alterskategorie von 12 – 34 Jahren erwies sich die Anzahl korrekt bearbeiteter Items im komplexeren zweiten Testteil als geeignetster Klassifikator in Bezug auf klinische Auffälligkeit, mit einer Sensitivität von 83% und einer Spezifität von 47 %. Zwischen 35 und 64 Jahren wurde die Diskriminationsleistung durch die Kombination mit dem Verhältnis aus den beiden Testteilen verbessert, welches kognitive Kosten des Aufgabenwechsels repräsentiert. Einer Sensitivität von 71 % steht hier eine Spezifität von 70 % gegenüber.
Diskussion Insgesamt erweist sich der STING als Screeningverfahren zur globalen Erfassung kognitiver Beeinträchtigungen als hinreichend sensitiv. Ein auffälliges Ergebnis ersetzt nicht eine neuropsychologische Untersuchung, sondern indiziert diese. Damit geben wir klinisch tätigen Neurologen, Psychologen und Psychiatern ein Werkzeug an die Hand, das es ihnen gestattet, auch leicht- bis mittelgradige transiente oder chronische Funktionseinbußen kognitiver Leistungen zu objektivieren und im zeitlichen Verlauf zu kontrollieren.
Klinische Bewährung von überkronten Zähnen anhand von parodontalen Parametern
Authors: Rehmann Peter , Schmidt Yvonne , Wöstmann Bernd 
Published: June 2017

Zusammenfassung
Einleitung In Studien zu überkronten Zähnen wird unter anderem wiederholt ein negativer Einfluss mangelhafter Restaurationen auf das umliegende parodontale Gewebe beschrieben. Daraus ergibt sich die Frage, welchen langfristigen Einfluss auf parodontale Parameter die Versorgung von Zähnen mit regelrecht ausgeführten Kronen- und Brückenkonstruktionen ausübt.
Material und Methode Bei 3 Kohorten von Patienten, die mit festsitzendem Zahnersatz versorgt wurden, erfolgte eine Dokumentation der parodontalen Parameter „Sondierungstiefe“, „Attachment Level (AL)“, „Sondierungsblutung bzw. Bleeding on Probing (BOP)“ sowie „Plaquebefall“ an überkronten und nicht überkronten bzw. gesunden Kontrollzähnen. Die statistische Auswertung hatte eine Messwiederholungsanalyse bezüglich der Faktoren Zeit und Gruppe bzw. Zähne (gesund bzw. nicht überkront/überkront) zum Inhalt.
Ergebnisse Die regelgerecht ausgeführten Konstruktionen zeigten im Vergleich zu nicht versorgten Kontrollzähnen kaum Unterschiede (p > 0,05) bei den untersuchten parodontalen Parametern. Lediglich beim Parameter „Sondierungstiefe“ konnten Unterschiede (p < 0,0005) zwischen den ersten beiden Patientengruppen festgestellt werden. Allerdings waren die aufgefundenen Differenzen mit durchschnittlich 100 – 250 µm so gering, dass eine klinische Relevanz eher nicht erkennbar ist.
Schlussfolgerung Regelrecht ausgeführte Kronen- und Brückenkonstruktionen üben kaum einen Einfluss auf das umliegende parodontale Gewebe aus.
Das Akustikusneurinom – die flugmedizinische Entscheidungsfindung
Authors: Knöffler Andreas 
Published: June 2017

ZUSAMMENFASSUNGDas Akustikusneurinom ist eine seltene Erkrankung im HNO-Bereich, die erfordert, dass die Ursache einer in der Regel seitendifferenten Innenohrhörstörung rechtzeitig und umfassend geklärt wird. Je kleiner der in der Regel expansiv wachsende gutartige Tumor bei Diagnosestellung ist, umso geringer sind die funktionellen Störungen und umso größer ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer Rückkehr in den fliegerischen Dienst. Der frühzeitigen MRT-Bildgebung des Kleinhirn-Brücken-Winkels kommt hier eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Die Therapie des AN befindet sich derzeit im Umbruch. Während früher nahezu jedes AN operiert wurde, geht nun die Zahl der Operationen zugunsten der Strahlentherapie zurück. Diese verhindert ein Weiterwachsen des Tumors. Derzeit werden Tumoren bis zu einer Größe von 2 cm damit behandelt. Eine „wait and scan“-Therapie kommt für das fliegende Personal eher nicht infrage. Jede seitendifferente Innenohrhörstörung ist bis zum Beweis des Gegenteils ein Akustikusneurinom.

Published: June 2017

Purpose Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has been established for many years and has become an increasingly important cornerstone of the diagnostic imaging of various organ systems. However, this modality is rarely performed by radiologists and is primarily employed by other medical disciplines. The goal of this questionnaire study is to present the current value of CEUS in radiology and to encourage reevaluation of the method within this medical discipline.
Materials and Methods 560 directors of radiology departments throughout Germany were contacted and given a 3-page questionnaire. The questionnaire included 37 questions on 5 different topics (general structures, CEUS and interdisciplinarity, CEUS in pediatric radiology, education/professional development, outlook) to assess the value of ultrasound (US) and in particular CEUS in radiology.
Results The response rate was 42.3 %. A statistical analysis of the answers was performed, including subgroup analysis. Overall, it could be shown that CEUS is performed in comparatively few radiology departments (26.6 %), while the current value of the modality is given an average to high range of importance even by radiologists. More than half of all participating radiologists (54.9 %) would like this method to be included in the requirements catalog for the specialist examination.
Conclusion The nationwide questionnaire to evaluate CEUS within radiology departments in Germany had a very high response rate, which reflects the assessment of this topic by radiologists. There is a substantial discrepancy between the currently low utilization of CEUS in radiology and the high ranking of CEUS by many radiologists. The analyses of the replies point out important aspects of professional policy regarding this topic within the radiology community.

Interpreter-mediated “paternalistic” interaction in a judge-centered courtroom
Authors: Defrancq Bart , Verliefde Sofie 
Published: June 2017

This paper investigates an interpreter’s handling of a distinctive ‘paternalistic’ (followingTates et al. 2002) participation framework in a Belgian criminal court, whereby the defendant is the topic – but not the addressee – of the interaction. The hearing analysed, which was recorded and transcribed, was part of a drugs trial. An experienced court interpreter provided consecutive and whispered interpreting, almost always asymmetrically, so that the French-speaking defendant could follow everything said to/about her in Dutch; the Dutch-speaking bench and counsel listened to the defendant’s French. The paternalistic participation framework seems to prompt various strategies by the interpreter, leading her to disregard major aspects of the code of ethics she works by. First, she sets up a separate participation framework with the defendant as the addressee of the interpretation (the ‘interpreter’s dyad’), systematically using the deictic coordinates of this framework in presenting the court’s interaction. Second, she tends sometimes to position herself in the role of principal, arguably as a result of the dyad arrangement. Finally, though interpretation is required only for the defendant, the latter’s French is occasionally interpreted into Dutch for the court –sometimes at the interpreter’s own initiative, possibly to protect the interests of the defendant in response to a verbal challenge from the judge.
Long-term digital strategy: do it once, do it right
Authors: Batt Chris 
Published: June 2017

Purpose
Collecting Institutions in the Network Society is a multidisciplinary PhD study examining present practices and policies of collecting institutions (museums, galleries, libraries and archives) in their use and development of digital technologies, within the context of wider socio-technical change. It investigates whether existing service paradigms are best suited to future digital delivery of services in the emergent network society.

Design/methodology/approach
It uses an interpretive methodological approach creating a body of phenomenological evidence enabling comparison between the organisational context, internal practices, histories and policies of collecting institutions, and the wider socio-technical impact of the internet. Literature reviews provide evidence from the “outer world” of internet developments and impact to establish four generic drivers of internet change. For the “inner world” of collecting institutions, organisational context and research and development on innovation are examined to analyse various perspectives on common approaches to service policy and practice. Additionally, textual analysis of institutional mission statements and policy documents is used to establish the degree of common purpose across collecting institutions and the preparedness of practitioners and policymakers to deal with rapid socio-technical change.

Findings
The evidence is synthesised to define an institutional paradigm describing the present operational processes and practices of collecting institutions. This is compared with the four generic drivers to define opportunities and challenges that collecting institutions face in exploiting the internet. This synthesis demonstrates that the siloised and fragmented nature of the institutional paradigm creates significant barriers to effective exploitation. Evidence from the textual analysis is used to develop a shared mission statement for all collecting institutions as the foundation of a strategic digital future.

Originality/value
The study proposes a radically new service paradigm (the digital knowledge ecology) enabling collecting institutions to achieve maximum user value in their delivery of digital services, and concludes with proposals for actions to build a collective strategy.

Control Function Approach for Partly Ordered Endogenous Treatments: Military Rank Premium in Wage
Authors: Ju Young‐Min , Lee Myoung‐Jae 
Published: June 2017

AbstractIn treatment effect analysis, there are many cases where the treatment of interest is ordered (e.g. general‐education years or medicine doses) and the control treatment is not zero, but a different type of treatment (a vocational training or a surgery). We develop an approach to find effects of partly ordered treatments, while correcting for possible treatment endogeneity with nearly parametric control functions. We use this control function approach, along with its supplementary version, to estimate effects of military ranks (ordered treatments) on wage relative to non‐veteran status (control treatment) with the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study data. In our empirical analysis, the military rank effects differ much: officer has large positive effects, but enlisted ranks have small or no effects.
Psychological Symptoms in Late Adolescence and Long‐Term Risk of Suicide and Suicide Attempt
Authors: Hogstedt Carl , Forsell Yvonne , Hemmingsson Tomas , Lundberg Ingvar , Lundin Andreas 
Published: June 2017

Mental disorders in the general population are associated with increased risk of suicidality, but less is known about the independent predictive ability of self‐reported psychological symptoms. We followed 49,321 screened and interviewed Swedish conscripts through 36‐year follow‐up to test whether psychological symptoms predicted suicide and hospitalization for suicide attempts. There were 619 suicides and 1,230 suicide attempts during the follow‐up period. After excluding subjects with any psychiatric diagnoses (n = 5,691, 12%) and controlling for other psychological symptoms, severe symptoms of anger, trouble falling asleep, and feeling down predicted suicide. Similarly anger, headaches, feeling down, and nervousness predicted suicide attempt. Self‐reported psychological symptoms may have a predictive value beyond psychiatric diagnosis.

<b>Occurrence and conservation of the Indian Leopard (Mammalia: Carnivora: Felidae: <I>Panthera pardus</I>) in Cox’s Bazar District of Bangladesh</b>
Authors: Kabir M. Tarik , Ahsan M. Farid , Khatoon Ayesha 
Published: June 2017

A study on the occurrence and conservation measures of the Indian Leopard (Panthera pardus Meyer, 1794) was carried out between July 2012 and March 2014, through direct visual observation and sign survey. This study was an opportunistic finding during biodiversity survey of the Inani Reserved Forest in Cox’s Bazar District of Bangladesh. The Indian leopard is a less known carnivore species, which has no recent confirmed record in Bangladesh. Direct observation in one place and the pugmark of leopards were identified from three places of the Inani Reserved Forest. Maximum and minimum length, and width of the pugmark were 8.7cm and 8.2cm, and 8.7cm and 7.1cm respectively; range of length of heel pad was 5.5cm to 5.0cm. There was only one sighting record and roaring/growling like haw-a-haw-ahaw howling was also heard once during the field visits. Illegal encroachments, fire, fuel and timber wood collections, beetle-leaf vineyard, and wildlife poaching are major identified threats for the conservation of the biodiversity of Inani Reserved Forest.
<b>Diversity and new records of intertidal hermit crabs of the genus <I>Clibanarius</I> (Crustacea: Decapoda: Diogenidae) from Gujarat coast off the northern Arabian Sea, with two new records for the mainland Indian coastline</b>
Authors: Kachhiya Pradip , Raval Jatin , Poriya Paresh , Kundu Rahul 
Published: June 2017

The present study reports seven hermit crab species of the genus Clibanarius, viz., C. infraspinatus, C. longitarsus, C. rhabdodactylus, C. rutilus, C. signatus, C. virescens, and C. zebra, from the intertidal zone of Gujarat State on the west coast of India. With the exception of C. zebra, the remaining six species are the first records from the west coast of India, and two species, C. rutilus and C. rhabdodactylus are new records from mainland India. All the recorded species were found inhabiting rocky, sandy and muddy intertidal habitats. We have appended the diagnostic descriptions and live coloration of all species based on the observations of our voucher specimens. Comments are provided where they differ slightly from the published records of that species, enriching the available identification keys for the intertidal hermit crabs of the Indian Ocean.
<b>Wildlife hunting by indigenous people in a Philippine protected area: a perspective from Mt. Apo National Park, Mindanao Island</b>
Authors: Tanalgo Krizler Cejuela 
Published: June 2017

Indigenous people play a major role in the conservation of wildlife species in protected areas. This paper provides an insight on the involvement of indigenous people in protecting and hunting of wildlife species in Mt. Apo National Park, Mindanao Island, Philippines. Here, I assessed indigenous knowledge and practices towards wildlife hunting from three villages from Mt. Apo through immersions, interviews, and focus group discussion between May 2014 and January 2015. The majority of wildlife hunters I encountered were male and married between the ages of 35–60 years old. Commonly hunted wildlife species from the national park included large wildlife species such as the endemic and threatened Philippine Warty Pig Sus philippensis, Philippine Brown Deer Rusa marianna, Common Palm Civet Paradoxurus hermaphroditus, Reticulated Python Malayopython reticulatus, Common Monitor Lizard Varanus salvator and other large birds such as Rufous Hornbills Buceros hydrocorax, large dove species (i.e., Dacula spp.). In the past, wildlife hunting was most commonly done for sustenance and culture. But, poverty and the lack of alternative livelihoods have become a recent motivation to hunt wildlife. This current findings in this study suggest that wildlife are essential for indigenous people in protected areas, however, hunting practices should be monitored and provide alternative livelihood options to reduce threats. This study introduced the vital links between local communities and wildlife in protected areas. Thus, engaging and empowering indigenous people and local communities in wildlife protection combined with appropriate conservation planning are the first steps forward in attaining sustainable and effective local conservation in protected areas.
