description: Intrakranielle Aneurysmen sind erworbene lokale sakkuläre Ausstülpungen der Hirngefäßwand. Ihre Prävalenz für Länder Mitteleuropas wird mit ca. 3% angegeben. Die Gefahr einer Ruptur ist zwar gering (ca. 3% in fünf Jahren), tritt sie dennoch ein, sind die Folgen fatal und die Sterblichkeit hoch. Mikrochirurgische und endovaskuläre Behandlungsmöglichkeiten sind verfügbar und etabliert, bergen aber ebenfalls Risiken (ca. 4%). Das motiviert die Suche nach Indikatoren für die individuelle Rupturrisikobewertung zur optimalen Behandlungsentscheidung. Da Bildung, Wachstum und Ruptur von Aneurysmen mit der Hämodynamik verknüpft sind, ist ihre Untersuchung vielversprechend. Neben der klinischen Bildgebung, die in ihrer Auflösung limitiert ist, hat sich diesbezüglich die numerische Strömungssimulation als geeignet herausgestellt. Die dafür notwendigen Arbeitsschritte sind allerdings interdisziplinär und bisher wenig standardisiert. Im Mittelpunkt dieser Arbeit steht daher die Analyse von Ursachen für Unsicherheiten und deren Quantifizierung in der hämodynamischen Charakterisierung von intrakraniellen Aneurysmen. Dazu erfolgt die systematische Variation von Modellierungsschritten sowie der Vergleich von Bearbeitungsstrategien für medizinische Bilddaten, die Untersuchung von stentinduzierten Gefäßdeformationen und Gefäßwanddicken. Die akkurate Rekonstruktion und Segmentierung erweist sich zur Erstellung realistischer Gefäßmorphologien als notwendig. In der Modellierung der darin befindlichen Hämodynamik tragen insbesondere die Ein- und Auslassrandbedingung zur Ergebnisunsicherheit bei. Wird zusätzlich die Interaktion der Hämodynamik mit Implantaten untersucht, ist eine mögliche stentinduzierte Gefäßdeformation zu beachten. Diese wird in der Regel vernachlässigt, kann jedoch erhebliche Modifikation der lokalen Hämodynamik hervorrufen. Eine Möglichkeit Gefäßdeformation zu modellieren, stellt die Erweiterung der Strömungssimulation um die Gefäßwand dar. Für eine solche Fluid-Struktur-Interaktion ist die möglichst akkurate Abbildung patient: innenspezifischer Wanddicken zu empfehlen. Schließlich erlauben die in dieser Arbeit identifizierten und quantifizierten Unsicherheiten die verbesserte Vergleichbarkeit bisheriger Studienergebnisse. Zudem können zukünftige Anstrengungen zur Verbesserung der medizinischen Aussagekraft der computergestützten Blutflussquantifizierung effizient umgesetzt und Unsicherheiten evaluiert werden, um die Aneurysmatherapie weiter zu stärken.

description: Hawkes process is a class of simple point processes that is self-exciting and has clustering effect. The intensity of this point process depends on its entire past history. It has wide applications in finance, neuroscience and many other fields. In this paper, we study the large deviations for nonlinear Hawkes processes. The large deviations for linear Hawkes processes has been studied by Bordenave and Torrisi. In this paper, we prove first a large deviation principle for a special class of nonlinear Hawkes processes, that is, a Markovian Hawkes process with nonlinear rate and exponential exciting function, and then generalize it to get the result for sum of exponentials exciting functions. We then provide an alternative proof for the large deviation principle for a linear Hawkes process. Finally, we use an approximation approach to prove the large deviation principle for a special class of nonlinear Hawkes processes with general exciting functions.

description: Analytische Produktauthentifizierung ist relevant, da Lebensmittelbetrug aufgrund der Unvollkommenheit der derzeit verwendeten Methoden oft nicht erkannt wird. Die epigenetische (auf DNA-Methylierung basierende) Produktauthentifizierung in biologisch und konventionell angebauten Kartoffeln (Solanum tuberosum) unter Verwendung eines Post-Bisulfit-Adapter-Tagging Whole-Genome Bisulfit-Sequencing (PBAT-WGBS) Protokolls wird in dieser Dissertation behandelt. Die Arbeit gliedert sich in drei Teile: einen methodischen Überblick über die wichtigsten Schritte, die derzeit im Bereich der DNA-Methylierungsanalyse angewandt werden, eine bioinformatische Bewertung von Alignment-Tools und die beispielhafte Anwendung der vorgeschlagenen Methode bei Kartoffeln. Neben dieser Anwendung bietet sie die Möglichkeit Lagerungs-, Transport-, Verarbeitungs- sowie weitere Anbaubedingungen in einer Vielzahl an Produkten zu analysieren. Daher kann sie in der zukünftigen Produktauthentifizierung von Bedeutung sein.
description: The topic of product authentication is of importance as food fraud could, up to now, often not be detected due to the imperfection of currently used methods. The question of epigenetic (DNA methylation-based) product authentication in organic and conventional grown potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) using a Post-Bisulfite-Adapter-Tagging Whole-Genome Bisulfit-Sequencing (PBAT-WGBS) protocol is addressed in this dissertation. The thesis is divided into three parts: a methodological review describing core steps currently applied in the field of DNA methylation analysis, a bioinformatical evaluation of alignment tools and the exemplary application of the proposed method in potatoes grown under organic and conventional farming systems. Besides this application, it offers the potential to analytically monitor storage, transport, cultivation and processing conditions of multiple kinds of products and therefore might be of importance in future product authentication.

description: The Casimir force between bodies in vacuum can be understood as arising from their interaction with an infinite number of fluctuating electromagnetic quantum vacuum modes, resulting in a complex dependence on the shape and material of the interacting objects. Becoming dominant at small separations, the force plays a significant role in nanomechanics and object manipulation at the nanoscale, leading to a considerable interest in identifying structures where the Casimir interaction behaves significantly different from the well-known attractive force between parallel plates. Here we experimentally demonstrate that by nanostructuring one of the interacting metal surfaces at scales below the plasma wavelength, an unexpected regime in the Casimir force can be observed. Replacing a flat surface with a deep metallic lamellar grating with sub-100 nm features strongly suppresses the Casimir force and for large inter-surfaces separations reduces it beyond what would be expected by any existing theoretical prediction.

description: We report near-infrared measurements of the terminator region transmission spectrum and dayside emission spectrum of the exoplanet WASP-12b obtained using the HST WFC3 instrument. The disk-average dayside brightness temperature averages about 2900 K, peaking to 3200 K around 1.46 microns. We modeled a range of atmospheric cases for both the emission and transmission spectrum and confirm the recent finding by Crossfield et al. (2012b) that there is no evidence for C/O >1 in the atmosphere of WASP-12b. Assuming a physically plausible atmosphere, we find evidence that the presence of a number of molecules is consistent with the data, but the justification for inclusion of these opacity sources based on the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) is marginal. We also find the near-infrared primary eclipse light curve is consistent with small amounts of prolate distortion. As part of the calibration effort for these data, we conducted a detailed study of instrument systematics using 65 orbits of WFC3-IR grims observations. The instrument systematics are dominated by detector-related affects, which vary significantly depending on the detector readout mode. The 256x256 subarray observations of WASP 12 produced spectral measurements within 15% of the photon-noise limit using a simple calibration approach. Residual systematics are estimated to be less than 70 parts per million.

description: Vorliegende Dissertationsschrift befasst sich mit den Ruddlesden-Popper-Oxyfluoriden La2Ni1-xCuxO3F2 und La2Ni1-xCuxO2,5F3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1). Diese gemischtanionischen Verbindungen wurden über die Reaktion der entsprechenden Oxide La2Ni1-xCuxO4 mit Polyvinylidenfluorid hergestellt und anschließend umfangreich charakterisiert. Der Fokus lag hierbei auf der Strukturaufklärung durch Röntgen- und Neutronendiffraktion, wobei für La2NiO2,5F3 eine neuartig verzerrten Variante der K2NiF4 Struktur (Raumgruppe P42/nnm) nachgewiesen werden konnte. In weiteren Untersuchungen wurde der Reaktionsmechanismus der Fluoridierung erstmalig durch in situ Röntgenpulverdiffraktion beleuchtet. Dabei konnte eine Methode zur gezielten Synthese solcher Verbindungen etabliert und mehrere bisher unbekannte Reaktionsintermdiate identifiziert, isoliert und strukturell analysiert werden. Darüber hinaus wurden zusätzlich die magnetischen und optischen Eigenschaften sowie die thermische Stabilität der Oxyfluoride untersucht.
description: This dissertation deals with the Ruddlesden-Popper oxyfluorides La2Ni1-xCuxO3F2 and La2Ni1-xCuxO2,5F3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1). These mixed anionic compounds were prepared via the reaction of the corresponding oxides with polyvinylidene fluoride and subsequently extensively characterised. The focus of these investigations was on the structure elucidation by X-ray and neutron diffraction, whereby a novel distorted variant of the K2NiF4 structure (space group P42/nnm for La2NiO2,5F3) was found. In further investigations, the mechanism of the fluorination reaction was examined by in situ X-ray powder diffraction. A method for the targeted synthesis of such compounds was hereby established and several previously unknown reaction intermediates were identified, isolated and structurally analysed. Furthermore, the magnetic and optical properties as well as the thermal stability of the oxyfluorides were investigated.

description: We define equivariant projective unitary stable bundles as the appropriate twists when defining K-theory as sections of bundles with fibers the space of Fredholm operators over a Hilbert space. We construct universal equivariant projective unitary stable bundles for the orbit types, and we use a specific model for these local universal spaces in order to glue them to obtain a universal equivariant projective unitary stable bundle for discrete and proper actions. We determine the homotopy type of the universal equivariant projective unitary stable bundle, and we show that the isomorphism classes of equivariant projective unitary stable bundles are classified by the third equivariant integral cohomology group. The results contained in this paper extend and generalize results of Atiyah-Segal.

description: Die transkutane Vagusnervstimulation (tVNS) und die transkranielle Random Noise Stimulation (tRNS) als einfache und nicht-invasive Verfahren wurden systematisch auf ihre Beteiligung an der Regulation der selektiven Aufmerksamkeit bewertet. Methodik: Mit einem randomisierten, einfach verblindeten, sham-kontrollierten Cross-over-Studiendesign wurden die Effekte von tVNS am linken Ohr und tRNS über dem linken dorsolateralen präfrontalen Kortex (DLPFC) an 20 gesunden jungen Testpersonen während einer visuellen Reaktionszeitaufgabe (SRT), eines auditiven Oddball-Paradigmas mit Ermittlung der P3 und eines intra- und extradimensionalen Set Shift (IED) überprüft. Ergebnisse: Sowohl auf Verhaltens- als auch auf elektrophysiologischer Ebene zeigte die Studie signifikante stimulationsabhängige Modulationen der auditiven und visuellen selektiven Aufmerksamkeit. Im Vergleich zur sham-Stimulation erreichten beide Stimulationen eine Verkürzung der P3-Latenz, wobei nur tVNS die P3-Amplitude erhöhte. Die tRNS verkürzte zusätzlich die Reaktionszeiten (RZ) auf Zielreize im SRT und Oddball-Paradigma. Schlussfolgerungen: Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass tVNS und tRNS die selektive Aufmerksamkeit auf unterschiedliche Weise positiv beeinflussen können. Es wurden weitere Hinweise für die LC-P3-Hypothese geliefert und gezeigt, wie tVNS über das noradrenerge System Einfluss auf die selektive Aufmerksamkeit nimmt. TRNS ist hingegen in der Lage, zeitliche Verbesserungen in der neuronalen Verarbeitungsgeschwindigkeit zu erzielen. Dabei wurde der frontale Kortex als Schlüsselregion der Reizerkennung und -verarbeitung herausgestellt. Beide Stimulationen bieten als nicht-invasive Verfahren einen vielversprechenden Behandlungsansatz neuropsychiatrischer Erkrankungsbilder.
5. Skinner contra Skinner. Civic Discord and Republican Liberty in Machiavelli’s ‘Mature’ Texts
Creators: name: Suchowlansky, Mauricio
Publisher: name: GISI - UniTO
Year: 2012

description: The purpose of this work is to question the extent to which Skinner and other scholars working on the methodological premises of the Cambridge approach have considered the intellectual development of Niccolò Machiavelli between his early and late texts. First, by positing a contextual reading of the concept of civic discord as introduced in the Florentine Histories and the Discursus Florentinarum Rerum, I claim that Skinner has misrepresented some of Machiavelli’s late or mature texts and hence has conceived and created a ’myth of coherence’ in terms of the republican thought of the author—mostly influenced by Skinner’s own reading of the Discourses on Livy. I consider the differences that appear between the early and late Machiavelli’s texts as belonging to different conceptual and situational contexts, which reveal both changes of intention and actual changes of mind on the part of the author. Secondly, I claim that Machiavelli did not maintain the same understanding of the concept civic discord throughout his intellectual life. By the late texts, the means that Machiavelli employs to represent the various social groups, their conflicts and the difficulty of managing such structural dilemmas are the result of a different conceptual paradigm in which no group is labelled ‘guardians of liberty’; instead, all societal sectors are considered as equally ambitious and consequently equally dangerous for the maintenance of the vivere libero. Contrary to Skinner’s observations, the late Machiavelli considers the safeguard of liberty as a result of the dispersal of authority throughout watertight councils that institutionalise, and make ineffective, the potentially corrosive ambizione of all social groupings of the city.

description: Small black holes potentially created by the Large Hadron Collider could typically carry color charges inherited from their parton progenitors. The dynamics of quarks near such a black hole depends on the curved spacetime geometry as well as the strong interaction due to the color charge of the black hole. We use the AdS/CFT Correspondence to study the behavior of strongly-coupled quarks near a color-charged black hole. The supergravity background consists of a six-dimensional Schwarzschild-black string AdS soliton, for which the bulk horizon extends from the AdS boundary down to an infra-red floor. By going to higher energy scales, the regime of validity of the classical supergravity background can be extended closer to the singularity than might be expected from the four-dimensional perspective. We study the resulting behavior of quarks and compute the rate at which a quark rotating around the black hole loses energy as a function of its mass parameter and angular velocity. We also analyze the behavior of quark-antiquark string configurations and discuss features such as the quark-antiquark screening length.

description: Mixed strategy EAs aim to integrate several mutation operators into a single algorithm. However few theoretical analysis has been made to answer the question whether and when the performance of mixed strategy EAs is better than that of pure strategy EAs. In theory, the performance of EAs can be measured by asymptotic convergence rate and asymptotic hitting time. In this paper, it is proven that given a mixed strategy (1+1) EAs consisting of several mutation operators, its performance (asymptotic convergence rate and asymptotic hitting time)is not worse than that of the worst pure strategy (1+1) EA using one mutation operator; if these mutation operators are mutually complementary, then it is possible to design a mixed strategy (1+1) EA whose performance is better than that of any pure strategy (1+1) EA using one mutation operator.

description: Durch ihre besonderen Eigenschaften kommt den Mizellen in der Photophysik und -chemie eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Mizellen können nicht nur durch absorptions- und fluoreszenzspektroskopische Methoden gut untersucht werden, sie lassen auch zahlreiche Anwendungsmöglichkeiten zu. In dieser Arbeit wurden statische und dynamische Fluoreszenzlöschprozesse von Pyren durch Viologene in Natriumalkylsulfat-Mizellen untersucht und theoretisch beschrieben. Des Weiteren wurden die Mizellen genutzt, um in Wasser schwerlösliche Moleküle in ihnen aufzunehmen und diese dann zu photoionisieren. Es wurde ein Photoredoxkatalyse-Zyklus vorgestellt, welcher in einer SDS-Mizelle den Katalysator 2-Aminoanthracen und den Regenerator Palmitoylascorbat vereint und in der Lage ist, durch Bestrahlung mit 355 nm-Laserlicht hydratisierte Elektronen zu erzeugen und dabei Radikalkonzentrationen zu liefern, welche für effektive Dimerisierungen groß genug sind. Außerdem wurde dargelegt, wie 355 nm-Photoionisierungen in Mizellen einen direkten Zugang zu den Radikalen des Quercetins und seiner Derivate bietet, um die Spezies und Reaktionswege aufzuklären.
description: Due to their special properties, micelles are of particular importance in photophysics and photochemistry. Micelles can not only be examined well by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic methods, they also allow numerous possible applications. In this work, static and dynamic fluorescence quenching processes of pyrene by viologens in sodium alkyl sulfate micelles were investigated and theoretically described. Furthermore, the micelles were used to include molecules that are poorly water soluble and then to photoionize them. A photoredox catalytic cycle is presented, which combines the catalyst 2-aminoanthracene and the regenerator palmitoylascorbate in a SDS micelle and which is able to generate hydrated electrons by irradiation with 355 nm laser light and thereby deliver radical concentrations that are high enough for effective dimerizations. In addition, it is presented how 355 nm photoionization in micelles provides direct access to the radicals of quercetin and its derivatives to elucidate the species and reaction pathways.

description: We study, for times of order 1/h, solutions of Maxwell's equations in an O(h^2) modulation of an h-periodic medium. The solutions are of slowly varying amplitude type built on Bloch plane waves with wavelength of order h. We construct accurate approximate solutions of three scale WKB type. The leading profile is both transported at the group velocity and dispersed by a Schrödinger equation given by the quadratic approximation of the Bloch dispersion relation. A weak ray average hypothesis guarantees stability. Compared to earlier work on scalar wave equations, the generator is no longer elliptic. Coercivity holds only on the complement of an infinite dimensional kernel. The system structure requires many innovations.

description: Seit 2000 ist es routinemäßig möglich, alternativ zu der anterioren zervikalen Diskektomie mit Fusion (ACDF) eine Bandscheibenprothese (Total Disk Arthroplastie TDA) in das operierte Halswirbelsegment einzubringen. Von der Prothese wird erwartet, dass sie die physiologische Beweglichkeit der Halswirbelsäule bewahrt und die Entwicklung der Anschlusssegmenterkrankung langfristig hemmt. Das Ziel der Studie ist es, die Inzidenz operationsbedürftiger Anschlusssegmenterkrankungen nach Bandscheibenprothesen (TDA) mit den Verläufen nach Fusion (ACDF) zu vergleichen. Nach einer Verlaufsbeobachtung von 4 Jahren im Mittel betrug bei der anterioren zervikalen Fusion ohne Prothese „ACDF“ mit 128 Patienten die Re-Operationsrate 7,8% und bei Prothesen mit 165 Patienten insgesamt 6,7%. Da jedoch diese beiden Gruppen nur bedingt miteinander vergleichbar sind, bleibt in dieser Studie die Frage offen, ob die Anschlusssegmenterkrankung bei Prothesen tatsächlich seltener auftritt als bei ACDF. Zudem wurde die Entwicklung der Anschlusssegmentdegeneration vor und nach Implantation von Prothesen und ACDF kernspintomographisch untersucht. Nach unserem Bewertungssystem konnten wir keinen statistisch relevanten Unterschied in der Entwicklung und im Ausmaß der Anschlusssegmentdegeneration zwischen beiden operativen Verfahren nachweisen. In keinem Fall konnte eine Anschlusssegmenterkrankung gefunden werden, bei der sich nicht bereits vor der ersten Bandscheibenoperation beginnende degenerative Veränderungen nachweisen ließen. Der Literatur zufolge vermindert die prothetische Versorgung an der Halswirbelsäule die langfristig zu erwartende Anschlusssegmenterkrankung und ist daher eine attraktive Alternative zur Fusion.

description: Let d ≥2 be an integer, let c ∈ ℚ(t) be a rational map, and let f_t(z) = (z^d+t)/z be a family of rational maps indexed by t. For each t = λ algebraic number, we let ĥ_(f_λ)(c(λ)) be the canonical height of c(λ) with respect to the rational map f_λ; also we let ĥ_f(c) be the canonical height of c on the generic fiber of the above family of rational maps. We prove that there exists a constant C depending only on c such that for each algebraic number λ, |ĥ_(f_λ)(c(λ))-ĥ_f(c)h(λ)| ≤C. [Formula missing] This improves a result of Call and Silverman for this family of rational maps.

description: III-V Nitride Based MISFETs have been studied using AIN/GaN heterostructures grown by MOCVD at the University of Michigan. MIS structures fabricated on such materials showed very low interface state density Dit values of -lx1011cm-2eV-1. The maximum drain current of AIN/GaN MISFETs made on these materials was greater than 700mA/mm, while drain-source breakdown was 30 V and drain-gate breakdown was 40V. Devices with a gate length of 2(j.m exhibited a peak transconductance of 136mS/mm at VGS=1V, which exceeds previously reported results.

description: The CRESST-II collaboration have announced evidence for the direct detection of dark matter in 730 kg-days exposure of a CaWO$_4$ target. We examine these new results, along with DAMA and CoGeNT data, in the context of the mirror dark matter framework. We show that all three experiments can be simultaneously explained via kinetic mixing induced elastic scattering of a mirror metal component off target nuclei. This metal component can be as heavy as Fe$'$ if the galactic rotational velocity is relatively low: $v_{rot} \stackrel{

description: GaN MESFETs were realized and then static and pulsed measurements were performed for two different lighting and temperature conditions. So, the existence of electrical traps associated with the surface states in GaN MESFETs was demonstrated. Hyperfrequency pulsed measurements were also performed to determine the maximum stable gain for different quiescent bias voltages and temperatures. This gain was found to increase with temperature.

description: We establish a correspondence between simplicial fans, not necessarily rational, and certain foliated compact complex manifolds called LVMB-manifolds. In the rational case, Meersseman and Verjovsky have shown that the leaf space is the usual toric variety. We compute the basic Betti numbers of the foliation for shellable fans. When the fan is in particular polytopal, we prove that the basic cohomology of the foliation is generated in degree two. We give evidence that the rich interplay between convex and algebraic geometries embodied by toric varieties carries over to our nonrational construction. In fact, our approach unifies rational and nonrational cases.

On a Coronal Blowout Jet: The First Observation of a Simultaneously Produced Bubble-like CME and a Jet-like CME in a Solar Event

description: The coronal blowout jet is a peculiar category among various jet phenomena, of which the sheared base arch, often carrying a small filament, experiences a miniature version of blowout eruption that produces large-scale coronal mass ejection (CME). In this paper, we report such a coronal blowout jet with high-resolution multi-wavelength and multi-angle observations taken from Solar Dynamics Observatory, Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory, and Big Bear Solar Observatory. For the first time, we find that a simultaneous bubble-like and a jet-like CMEs were dynamically related to the blowout jet that showed cool and hot components next to each other. Our observational results indicate that: (1) the cool component was resulted from the eruption of the filament contained within the jet's base arch, and it further caused the bubble-like CME; (2) the jet-like CME was associated with the hot component, which was the outward moving heated plasmas generated by the reconnection of the base arch and its ambient open field lines. On the other hand, bifurcation of the jet's cool component was also observed, which was resulted from the uncoupling of the erupting filament's two legs that were highly twisted at the very beginning. Based on these results, we propose a model to interpret the coronal blowout jet, of which the external reconnection not only produces the jet-like CME but also leads to the rising of the filament. Subsequently, internal reconnection starts underneath the rising filament and thereby causes the bubble-like CME.

description: In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of the spectral function corresponding to the lower part of the spectrum of the Kodaira Laplacian on high tensor powers of a holomorphic line bundle. This implies a full asymptotic expansion of this function on the set where the curvature of the line bundle is non-degenerate. As application we obtain the Bergman kernel asymptotics for adjoint semi-positive line bundles over complete Kaehler manifolds, on the set where the curvature is positive. We also prove the asymptotics for big line bundles endowed with singular Hermitian metrics with strictly positive curvature current. In this case the full asymptotics holds outside the singular locus of the metric.

description: In this transformative world, changes are happening in all the fields, including scholarly communications are trending in the academic area of publication and access to the resources, especially emerging the wave of open access, open science and open research. The study aims to investigate the digital publishing behaviour of manuscript authors. This study applied a quantitative approach and survey questionnaire method. The researcher collected the data from 251 authors, editors, and peer-reviewers from 45 countries worldwide. The research mainly focuses on the importance, need, and author preference for open access journals. Everyone cannot use and access subscription-based journals; the critical reason is the cost of purchasing a tremendous amount. As an independent researcher, developing countries and other impoverished countries, researchers can give the utmost importance to open access journals. The author also wishes to publish a journal in open access only. The findings reveal that most authors like to publish digital and print in both formats, with chargeless publications. Open access publishing has a vital role with researchers, scholars, and students because accessing the articles is costless. The researcher publishing the manuscript is more important than the quality of the content also important in scholarly publication. Nowadays, open-access peer-reviewed journals are also equal to the paid journals.

description: Das primäre Ziel dieser Studie bestand in der Evaluation der posturalen Stabilität und Regulation von Patienten (n=32) mit präoperativ diagnostizierter medialer tibiofemoraler OA, die sich dem operativen Verfahren einer HTO unterzogen. Jeder Proband absolvierte prä- und zu definierten postoperativen Zeitpunkten eine Testabfolge zur Haltungsstabilität und -regulation (IBS), Schmerzintensität (VAS) und Fragebögen zur Lebensqualität (QoL, SF-36). Der Vergleich der posturalen Parameter erfolgte gematched (Geschlecht, Alter, Größe) zu asymptomatischen Probanden. Signifikante Gesamtzeiteffekte zeigten sich für den Gewichtsverteilungsindex (WDI) und die anteriorposteriore Gewichtsverteilung. Unterschiede zur gesunden Referenzgruppe konnten zu allen Messzeitpunkten für den Stabilitätsindikator berechnet werden. Die VAS-Werte reduzierten sich signifikant von MZP1 zu MZP4 (ηp2=0,438). Die Operation und Rehabilitation führte zu Verbesserungen hinsichtlich der Haltungsregulation, QOL und Schmerzen.
description: The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the postural regulation and stability among patients who underwent HTO and rehabilitation. The prospective study included 32 patients diagnosed with medial tibiofemoral OA. Each subject completed postural regulation and stability testing (IBS), pain intensity tests (VAS) and quality of life questionnaires (QoL, SF-36) prior to HTO (MZP1), and at 6 weeks (MZP2), 12 weeks (MZP3) and 6 months (MZP4) post HTO. For postural comparison, all patients were matched (sex, age, height) with asymptomatic subjects. Significant time effects (MZP1 vs MZP4) were found for weight distribution index (WDI) and anteriorposterior weight distribution. The most significant differences to the matched sample were calculated for the stability indicator (MZP1/2/3/4: ηp2=0.237/=0.215/=0.251/=0.229). The VAS showed a significant reduction from MZP1 to MZP4 (ηp2=0.438). The surgery and rehabilitation leads to marked improvements in postural regulation, QOL and pain.
