Accuracy of Whole-Body 18F-FDP-PET for Restaging Malignant LymphomaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: 18F-FDG-PET showed a comparable sensitivity but a higher specificity and accuracy compared with CT/US. To achieve a high accuracy in 18F-FDG-PET, the nuclear medicine specialist needs imaging and clinical data as background information, which can only be acquired through close co-operation with the referring clinicians. Pharmacological muscular relaxation in the course of 18F-FDG-PET imaging may be advisable, as nonspecific muscular hypermetabolism was one of the problems at the image readings and a source of incorrect 18F-FDG-PET interpretations. Zusammenfassung: Grundlagen: Die Studie präsentiert die 18F-FD...

Unusual Localizations of Hydatid DiseaseEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Summary: Hydatid disease is endemic in several Mediterranean countries, posing an important health problem for these countries. The hydatid cyst is characterized by cystic lesions with clear boundaries, which can be observed in all parts of the body. Approximately 70 % of hydatid cysts are situated in the liver, followed by the lung (25 %). The kidneys, spleen, bile ducts, mesentery, soft tissue and brain are less frequent sites. We investigated patients who were treated for hydatid disease in our departments in the last 5 years with respect to localization of the disease, symptoms, surgical intervention, length of hospita...

Advice Against Smoking is not Effective in Patients with Graves' OphthalmopathyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The objective of this study was to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of such advice. The study was performed at a referral centre. Eighty-five smokers out of 102 consecutive patients with GO, who were examined during a 1-year period, were included in the study. Severity of the disease, smoking history, and the results from a patients' self-assessment questionnaire were recorded. The behavioural intervention consisted in a standardized 2-min message from the attending ophthalmologist strongly advising each patient to quit. The main outcome measure was smoking cessation during the 1-year follow-up period. None of the 85 sm...

Marathonlaufen läßt intrazelluläre Proteine aus Muskelzellen selektiv in das Plasma austretenEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Zusammenfassung: Bei 19 Marathonläufern (2F, 17M) wurde vor und unmittelbar nach dem Lauf die Plasmakonzentration der Parameter Gesamt-CK-Aktivität, CK-MB-Masse, Myoglobin und Troponin I bestimmt. Unter dem Einfluß der Laufbelastung sind bei allen Probanden Gesamt-CK und Myoglobin im Plasma signifikant angestiegen, wobei keine Korrelation mit dem Alter der Läufer und deren Laufzeit feststellbar war. Bei einigen der Läufer ist auch CK-MB auf Werte angestiegen, die sonst für das Bestehen myokardialer Nekrosen sprechen. Es gibt jedoch keinen überzeugenden Hinweis dafür, daß diese Befunde wirklich durch Nekrosen im My...

The Influence of Obesity on the Frequency and Distribution of MedicationEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Summary: Obesity is a serious health problem in industrialized countries and is associated with a significant increase in total health care costs. Only few data are available about the costs of drug therapies in patients with an increased body weight treated under clinical routine procedures. Such data could support efforts to intensify obesity prevention and treatment programmes in order to reduce comorbidities and costs. We have evaluated body mass index (BMI), diagnosis, and medication in 3360 outpatients (2175 women and 1185 men; mean age: 56.7 ± 17.5 years). All patients underwent physical examinations, including BMI...

Trends in Primary Health Care Consumption by the ElderlyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Summary: Trends in primary health care consumption were monitored in the elderly (60 or more years of age). Respondents (5162) were picked by random mechanical selection. They were monitored for a complex of characteristics composed of frequency of visits to a GP office, frequency of procedures performed at the GP office, drug prescriptions, frequency (and type) of procedures performed at specialists' offices, and hospitalization. The study was conducted in 1982, 1992, 1993 and 1996. Results were statistically analysed. There was a statistically significant increase in the consumption of primary health care by the elderly:...

Monitoring the Efficacy of Iodine-131-MIBG Therapy using Fluorine-18-FDG-PETEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: It may be concluded from these cases that 18F-FDG-PET is a valuable tool for an initial metabolic staging of neuroendocrine tumours prior to 131I-MIBG therapy, as it can reveal tumour sites beyond the reach of radioisotope therapy. It may also be of importance in assessing therapeutic potential in those tumour sites that do show positive MIBG uptake.

Neues Design-Konzept zur Verbesserung der medizinischen AnwendersoftwareEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Zusammenfassung: Die rasche Entwicklung und Weiterentwicklung im Bereich der Informationstechnologie eröffnet zunehmend schneller neue Möglichkeiten und macht eine rasche Anpassung in der täglichen Anwendung erforderlich: derzeit herkömmliche Softwaremodelle tragen dem aber nicht hinreichend Rechnung. Basierend auf der Programmiersprache Java ermöglicht die Jini-Technologie durch Umsetzung eines verteilten Ansatzes eine verteilte und somit robuste Softwarearchitektur. Etwaige Störungen betreffen ausschließlich die aktuellen Benützer des entsprechenden Dienstes, und damit beeinträchtigen Ausfälle einzelner Softwar...
