Abstract
ZusammenfassungNeben nichtoperativen Behandlungsstrategien und dem endoprothetischen Gelenkersatz nehmen gelenkerhaltende Operationstechniken am Hüftgelenk eine Zwischenstellung in der Therapie der avaskulären Osteonekrose (AVN) ein. Die einzelnene Verfahren verfolgen hierbei verschiedene Ziele. Neben der seit vielen Jahren etablierten Entlastungsbohrung (Core Decompression), der Spongiosaplastik und aktueller innovativer Therapien (autologe Zelltherapie, Osteonekrosenagel, femoraler Teilgelenkersatz) besteht in ausgewählten Fällen die Indikation, ein betroffenes Osteonekroseareal durch eine Umstellungsosteotomie aus der Hauptbelastungszone zu schwenken. Die Entscheidung für hüftgelenknahe Osteotomien ist jedoch aufgrund eigener Erfahrungen sowie unter Berücksichtigung von umfangreichen Daten aus der wissenschaftlichen Literatur kritisch zu stellen, da bei bereits primär kritischer Durchblutung des Femurkopfes diese operationsbedingt zusätzlich beeinträchtigt werden können und sich das mittelfristige klinische Ergebnis im Einzelfall nur sehr schwer vorhersagen lässt. Ob minimalinvasive und regenerative Therapien zukünftig einen festen Stellenwert in der Behandlung der Femurkopfnekrose einnehmen werden, wird derzeit anhand experimenteller und klinischer Studien untersucht.

Abstract
Intra- and, respectively, periarticular osteoid osteoma are accompanied by sympathical arthritis which itself can irreversibly destroy the cartilage of the joint. In contrast to other locations, intra- and periarticular osteoid osteoma are rare. Reactive and symptomatic accompanying arthritis may lead to irreversible cartilage destruction especially in chronic courses. Therefore early diagnosis and therapy is crucial. We present a case report and discuss these rare tumors by reviewing the literature.

Abstract
The replacement of hip and knee joints is one of the greatest success stories in orthopedics. Due to continuous improvement of biomaterials and implant design, patient-associated problems are now mostly multifactorial and only rarely caused by the implant. Abrasion was significantly reduced by the introduction of highly cross-linked polyethylene (PE), antioxidant stabilized PE, new ceramics and the development of ceramic and protective surfaces. It is assumed that further reduction of frictional resistance will not lead to a significantly better clinical result: however, the problem of periprosthetic infections and implant-related incompatibility is still unsolved and remains challenging for biomaterial research. For the knee joint PE will be irreplaceable for joint articulation even in the future due to the contact situation. Mobile bearings and fixed bearings are two established successful philosophies, which have shown comparably good clinical results. For the hip joint, it is forecasted that ceramic-on-ceramic will be the system of the future if the correct positioning and mounting of the components can be solved so that the problems, such as development of noise and breakage can be reduced to a minimum. An in-depth understanding and detailed knowledge of the biomaterials by the surgeon can prevent implant-related problems. For elderly patients it is assumed that the economic burden on the public healthcare system will have the strongest impact on implant selection.

Abstract
Ewald Hecker was the first psychiatrist to describe the disease entity of hebephrenia in some detail, focusing mainly on disturbances of affect. Later Emil Kraepelin and Eugen Bleuler saw hebephrenia as a subtype of dementia praecox or schizophrenia. Willy Mayer-Gross and Karl Leonhard characterized hebephrenia with highly differentiated psychopathological descriptions, whereas this construct only played a minor role in the works of Klaus Conrad and Kurt Schneider. The International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) lists hebephrenia as a subtype of schizophrenia but in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) no subtypes of schizophrenia are mentioned and the concept of hebephrenia is thus lost. Hebephrenia can be seen as an ideal type describing a psychopathological course pattern. This construct can be useful to conceptualize a group of disorders of affect which otherwise escape description, especially since these psychopathological alterations of affect are difficult to operationalize. To have a viable concept of these disorders is relevant for the prognosis and therapy planning. If the concept of hebephrenia is abolished, important psychopathological knowledge might be lost for future generations of psychiatrists.

Abstract
The optical design and analysis of modern micro-optical elements with high index contrasts and large numerical apertures is still challenging, as fast and accurate wave-optical simulations beyond the thin-element-approximation are required. We introduce a modified formulation of the wave-propagation-method and assess its performance in comparison to different beam-propagation-methods with respect to accuracy, required sampling densities, and computational performance. For typical micro-optical components, the wave-propagation-method is found to be considerably faster and more accurate at even lower sampling densities compared to the different beam-propagation-methods. This enables realistic wave-optical simulations beyond the thin-element-approximation for micro-optical components. As an example, the modified wave-propagation-method is applied for in-line holographic measurements of strongly diffracting objects. From a direct comparison of experimental results and corresponding simulations, the geometric parameters of a test object could be retrieved with high accuracy.

Abstract
Background: Since the combination of orthopaedic and traumatology surgery as a single speciality, an extremely wide variety of orthopaedic and trauma surgery centres have been founded in Germany. The present investigation analysed the degree to which additional value has been generated by merging two previously independent university departments - one for orthopaedics, the other for trauma surgery - into a single orthopaedics and trauma surgery centre. Material and Methods: The centre, merged in 1 June 2013, is led by two equal co-chairs (a full professor for orthopaedics and a full professor for trauma surgery). It consists of an acute division and five other divisions for specific parts of the body. The pre-existing certifications (level 1 trauma- and joint arthroplasty centre) were maintained in the new merged entity. Data from patient and employee questionnaires, as well as key economic indicators, were compared before and after the merger. Results: 11 % of the patients rated the medical treatment as mediocre or bad before the merger. After the merger, 5.7 % of the patients were moderately satisfied or unsatisfied; 92 % would recommend the merged centre to others and would return for further treatment. The evaluation of patient complaints before and after the merger showed no change. The evaluation of the employee questionnaires showed heterogeneous results. Overall, positive evaluations predominated, but in areas where there had been major changes, negative aspects were occasionally reported. The merger did not bring about any essential change in the number of in-patients (2012: 6693; 2014: 6649) or in the severity of the medical cases (CMI in 2012: 1.41; in 2014: 1.45). But in 2015, there was an increase in the number of in-patients (6837) and in the CMI (1.54). In the out-patient clinic, the merger led to a reduction in the material costs per patient (2012: 3.53 €/patient; 2014: 3.07 €/patient) and in the staff costs. The material costs for the entire centre were also reduced by 14 %. Conclusion: By merging the university orthopaedic and trauma surgery centres, transdisciplinary and transdepartmental improvements in patient care were achieved for musculoskeletal illnesses and injuries, and a sustainable structure was established for the advanced training for the joint specialist title of orthopaedics and trauma surgery. The merger also led to additional economic synergies, with a mid-term potential for increases in the number of patients and in CMI. To improve or at least maintain the level of employee satisfaction, staff must be actively included in the process.

Abstract
The peptide hormone calcitonin (CT) is known to inhibit bone resorption and has previously been shown also to prevent particle-induced osteolysis, the leading cause of revision arthroplasty. In the present study, the influence of human CT on the initial inflammatory response to particulate wear debris or bacterial endotoxins, ultimately leading to osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, was analysed in human THP-1 macrophage-like cells. The cells were activated with either ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) particles or bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in order to simulate an osteolysis-associated inflammatory response. The cells were simultaneously treated with human CT (10(-9) M). Cytokine production of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α was quantified on both RNA and protein levels while interleukins (IL)-1β and IL-6 were measured as secreted protein only. Stimulation of the cells with either particles or LPS led to a dose- and time-dependent increase of TNF-α mRNA production and protein secretion of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. Application of CT mostly enhanced cytokine production as elicited by UHMWPE particles while a pronounced transient inhibitory effect on LPS-induced inflammation became evident at 24 h of incubation. Human CT displayed ambivalent effects on the wear- and LPS-induced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Thereby, the peptide primarily upregulated particle-induced inflammation while LPS-induced cytokine secretion was temporarily attenuated in a distinct manner. It needs to be evaluated whether the pro- or anti-inflammatory action of CT contributes to its known anti-resorptive effects. Thus, the therapeutic potential of the peptide in the treatment of either particle- or endotoxin-mediated bone resorption could be determined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of the short-pulsed 1064-nm-Nd:YAG laser in treating onychomycosis has been the subject of controversial discussion ever since it received FDA approval in 2010. Research to date provides no valid conclusions supporting its use from an evidence-based perspective. OBJECTIVE In this prospective randomized controlled pilot study, we analysed the effect of the short-pulsed 1064-nm-Nd:YAG laser on the rate of mycological remission and clinical improvement after excluding relevant confounders with regard to our previous studies. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty patients with a total of 82 mycotic toenails were randomized to the treatment group (short-pulsed 1064-nm-Nd:YAG laser) or control group (no laser treatment). We conducted four laser treatments at 4- to 6-week intervals. In both groups, a local antimycotic agent was applied to the sole of the foot, the area between the toes and the skin directly surrounding the nails. The primary endpoint was complete remission of the onychomycosis after 12 months (fungal culture and histology); secondary endpoints included clinical improvement (Onychomycosis Severity Index, OSI) and the occurrence of pain or other adverse events. RESULTS Mycological remission was not achieved in either study group. A comparison of both groups yielded no difference in the OSI score, both at the beginning of the trial (P = 0.9873) and after 12 months (P = 0.4317). In the treatment group, the OSI score worsened by a mean 2.0 points, and in the control group, by a mean 3.5 points. On a visual analogue scale (0 = 'no pain' to 10 = 'most intense pain'), pain in the treatment group was indicated at a mean score of five. Other adverse events were not reported. CONCLUSIONS The short-pulsed 1064-nm-Nd:YAG laser shows no long-term efficacy as a monotherapy. Its role as an adjuvant therapy should be investigated in upcoming trials.

Abstract
Against the background of Max Weber's and Karl Jaspers' outstanding historical contributions to the conceptual development of different typologies, the importance of a psychiatric typology is examined. The term "ideal type" was introduced into social science by Weber as an analytical construct to describe and classify cultural phenomena. This concept was adopted for the psychiatric context by Jaspers who proposed to establish a typological system in the field of psychotic disturbances without an organic correlate. He emphasized the importance of the course of psychopathological symptoms for such a typological system. The concept of typology can be regarded as a promising heuristic approach in psychiatry, providing a classification system for complex psychopathological symptoms. Even though several historic typologies exist in psychopathology, their usefulness in the fields of therapy and prognosis needs to be critically assessed. Also, new typologies will have to be developed, taking into account neurobiological knowledge now available.

Abstract
Core decompression is the most common procedure for treatment of the early stages of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical performance of four different bone graft substitutes combined with core decompression. Subject-specific finite element models generated from computed tomography (CT) scan data were used for a comprehensive analysis. Two different contact conditions were simulated representing states of osseointegration at the interface. Our results showed that the use of a low-stiffness bone substitute did not increase the risk of femoral fracture in the early postoperative phase, but resulted in less micromotion and interfacial stresses than high-stiffness bone substitutes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The treatment of adult non-traumatic avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN; N-ANFH) within an estimated incidence of 5000-7000 cases per annum in Germany remains a challenge. Risk factors include steroids, alcohol abuse, chemotherapy and immunosuppressive medication, but a genetic predisposition has been suggested. Early diagnosis of this often bilateral disease process is essential for successful conservative or joint preserving surgical management. In this review, we present the update German consensus S3 guideline "diagnosis and management for N-ANFH" as a concise summary. MATERIALS AND METHODS This systematic review is based on the published literature from January 1, 1970 to April 31, 2013 (German and English language). Inclusion criteria were systematic reviews, meta-analyses and relevant peer review publications. We identified a total of 3715 related publications, of which 422 were suitable according to the SIGN criteria, but only 159 fulfilled our inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Clinical suspicion of N-ANFH mandates radiographic evaluation. If radiographs are normal MRI scans are recommended, which should be evaluated according to the ARCO-classification. Differential diagnoses include transient osteoporosis, bone bruise, insufficiency fracture and destructive arthropathy. Untreated, subchondral fractures commonly occur within 2 years, during which the risk for contralateral involvement is high-thereafter unlikely. Conservative management with Ilomedin and Alendronat can be tried, but other pharmacological or physical treatments are inappropriate. No specific joint preserving procedure can be recommended, but core decompression should be considered in early stages if necrosis is <30 %. In ARCO stages IIIc or IV total hip arthroplasty (THA) should be contemplated, which offers similar outcome compared to osteoarthritis. Young age is the main risk factor for higher revision rates after THA for N-ANFH.

Abstract
In the light of historical and modern criticism of the discipline of psychiatry and psychotherapy as a medical subspecialty, this paper deals with aspects of the theory of medicine as postulated by the physician and philosopher Wolfgang Wieland. According to his contributions medicine is a practical science aiming at establishing rational action. Central to this model is a diagnosis, which helps to subsume individual cases under general principles from which essential therapeutic options can be derived. Hence, psychiatry and psychotherapy become a medical subspecialty by adopting the basic model of medical reasoning and action as described by Wieland. Nevertheless, the limits of such an approach must be taken into consideration. Especially in a psychiatric and psychotherapeutic context it is of particular importance that even when being guided by general principles the responsibility for the personality of each individual patient should be adequately met. Furthermore, attention should be paid to the limits of the subspecialty of psychiatry and psychotherapy as a medical discipline, which also requires a critical analysis of the concept of psychiatric illness.
