Abstract
beta-Carbolines structurally related to the selective dopaminergic neurotoxin 1-methyl-4- phenylpyridinium (MPP(+)) may contribute to dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. The chloral-derived mammalian alkaloid derivative 1-trichloromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline (TaClo) is formed endogenously by a Pictet-Spengler condensation from the biogenic amine tryptamine (Ta) and the hypnotic aldehyde chloral (Clo). Here we examine the dopaminergic toxicity of TaClo and related compounds by testing their differential cytotoxicities in dopaminergic SH-SY5Y and non-dopaminergic murine Neuro2A neuroblastoma cell lines as well as in heterologous expression systems of the dopamine transporter (DAT) using both HEK-293 and Neuro2A cells. All TaClo derivatives showed significant cytotoxicity in all cell lines after 72 hours with the following rank order of toxic potency: 1-Tribromomethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline (TaBro) > TaClo > MPP(+) > 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline (THbetaC) > 2[N]-methyl-TaClo > 2[N]-methyl-THbetaC. In contrast to MPP(+), there was no selectivity towards dopaminergic cells or cells ectopically expressing the DAT in vitro. Our results suggest that TaClo and related analogs are strong cytotoxins without selectivity towards dopaminergic cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biochemical markers of bone turnover have been reported to predict fracture risk independent of bone mass in postmenopausal women. We investigated their use in predicting fractures in the frail elderly. METHODS Cases were 151 low trauma fractures. For each case, a control was selected marched for sex, age, institution type and follow-up period. We measured two bone resorption markers (serum ICTP and serum CTX-I) and two bone formation markers (serum PINP and serum BAP). Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) was measured in the calcaneus. Fractures were ascertained by x-ray reports. RESULTS The mean age of subjects was 86.8 years (+/- 5.8 SD) and 86% were female. 76% had hypovitaminosis D (a serum 25 hydroxy vitamin D (25OHD) level < 39 nmol/L) and 81% had BUA < 67.4 dB/MHz (corresponding to a BMD T-score < -2.5). No significant differences in bone turnover markers were detected between fracture cases and their matched controls. In contrast, there was a significant difference between cases and controls for both broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) and velocity of sound (VOS) (both P < 0.05). These results remained the same after adjusting for weight, lower leg length and walking aids as well as the higher falls incidence in cases than controls (average 2.7 vs 0.9 falls respectively; P < 0.001) during the follow-up period. CONCLUSION In the frail elderly with vitamin D deficiency and high falls risk, calcaneal ultrasound but not markers of bone turnover were associated with fractures.

Abstract
One of the major challenges today is the development of prevention programs for the clinical practice. Our aim was to develop a concept for a primary diabetes prevention program to be implemented in general health care. Lifestyle intervention addressing diet and exercise has reduced the diabetes risk by up to 58%. Early preventive pharmacological strategies have yielded a diabetes risk reduction of 25-30%. These findings offer a compelling evidence base, but delivery of intervention and care is essential. The challenge therefore is the management of prevention and intervention programs considering scientific aspects and practical requirements during implementation. The Diabetes Prevention Workgroup at the German Diabetes Association has developed a concept for a decentralized prevention program. Based on the results of the prevention studies, the intervention concept consists of a three-step program including identification of the individuals at high risk to develop type 2 diabetes (1), followed by general intervention based on individual choice (2) and maintained continuous intervention for motivation maintenance (3). Structured prevention programs will enable nationwide prevention of diabetes mellitus without consuming large resources. This process will be challenging and time consuming, requiring many partners but resulting in a profitable "health" investment.

Abstract
Based on a higher cardio-pulmonary and cardio-vascular benefit and a promised reduction of mechanical load of the musculoskeletal system Nordic Walking (NW) shows an increased market potential. The present study should investigate whether there are biomechanical differences between the locomotion patterns NW, walking and running. Moreover possible resultant load differences should be determined. Eleven subjects, who were already experienced with the NW-technique, participated in this experiment. The kinematic data were collected using two high-speed camera systems from posterior and from lateral at the same time. Simultaneously the ground reaction forces were recorded. The kinematic and the kinetic data reveal differences between the three analyzed locomotion patterns. For NW as well as walking the mechanical load of the lower extremity is lower compared to running. None of the kinematic parameters suggest a "physiological benefit" of NW compared to walking. Moreover NW shows higher vertical and horizontal forces during landing. Exclusively the lower vertical force peak during push off indicates a lower mechanical load for NW in comparison to walking. Consequently it is questionable is NW -- based on its promised "biomechanical benefits" compared to walking -- should be still recommended for overweight people and for people with existing musculoskeletal problems of the lower limb.

Abstract
Anagrelide hydrochloride is an effective drug used in patients with ET and other myeloproliferative disorders with thrombocythemia to selectively decrease the number of thrombocytes. Indications for use of anagrelide were described in detail in Czech medical literature. Since 2005 data concerning treatment with anagrelide in some medical clinics have been collected in patient register showing course of treatment from 2004, when the medicament obtained marketing authorization from State Institute for Drug Control to be used in the treatment of thrombocythemia in myeloproliferative disorders. Aim of patient register is to monitor medical effect of anagrelide therapy and incidence of adverse effects in patients with ET and other myeloproliferative disorders and subsequent analysis of collected data. At the moment patient register contains data from 154 patients.

Abstract
Wilson's disease (WD) is characterized by impaired hepatic copper secretion and subsequent copper accumulation in many organs predominantly liver and brain, secondary to loss of function mutations in the copper transport protein ATP7B. If the disease is recognized too late or treatment is not adequate, brain copper accumulation leads to progressive neurodegeneration with a variety of clinical symptoms. The nigrostriatal dopaminergic system seems rather vulnerable. Midbrain atrophy, however, has not been recognized as one of the prime features of patients with WD. Here we report quantification of midbrain diameter in 41 patients with WD. Data were correlated to the severity of neurological symptoms and the integrity of dopaminergic neurons measured via dopamine transporter binding. For control, we measured midbrain diameter in 18 patients with no evidence for brainstem dysfunction and 5 patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Patients with WD had a reduced midbrain diameter (15.5 +/- 0.4 mm) compared to controls (18.5 +/- 0.2 mm). WD patients without neurological symptoms had midbrain diameter that were not different from controls (18.0 +/- 0.3 mm), while patients with neurological symptoms showed midbrain atrophy similar to patients with PSP (14.4 +/- 0.3 mm versus 14.1 +/- 0.3). There was a strong and significant correlation between midbrain atrophy and the severity of neurological symptoms (r= -0.68, p < 0.001) while midbrain atrophy and dopamine transporter binding correlated significantly but was less pronounced (r=0.46, p < 0.001). In summary, we were able to show, that midbrain diameter is an easy to perform quantification of neurodegeneration induced by brain copper accumulation and that other structures than substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons seem to contribute to midbrain atrophy in WD.

Abstract
Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) markers allow measuring the integrity of the brain dopaminergic system in vivo. We used dopamine transporter (DAT) SPECT with [(123)I]FP-CIT and dopamine D(2)/D(3) receptor SPECT with [(123)I]IBZM to evaluate whether there is a reduction of DAT and/or D(2)/D(3) receptor SPECT in treated and untreated patients with Parkinsonian syndrome (PS). We found that almost a quarter of our patients treated with anti-Parkinsonian medication prior to SPECT imaging did not show evidence of a presynaptic dopaminergic deficit while 37% of untreated patients were diagnosed as having Parkinson's disease. 17% of treated patients had additional loss of D(2)/D(3) receptor binding capacity in concordance with the clinical follow-up diagnoses of multiple system atrophy, progressive nuclear palsy, and vascular Parkinsonism. Apart from 38% clinically uncertain cases, SPECT was in concordance with 75% of initial clinical diagnoses. 25% were reclassified as indicated by SPECT findings and confirmed by a 1.5-year clinical follow-up. We conclude that dopamine SPECT may support establishing or refuting the clinical diagnosis and, therefore, help to make the decision for or against dopaminomimetic treatment in cases with PS.

Abstract
A 76-year old man was referred for radiological evaluation of recurrent left sided flank pain, micro-haematuria and renal cysts. Computer tomographic findings were colon wall-thickening and submucosal fat (fat halo sign) throughout the entire length of the colon. Fat halo sign is thought to be a reliable marker for inflammatory bowel disease. It has also been reported in patients receiving cytoreductive therapy or in patients with graft-versus-host disease. A relation between short segment fat halo sign and obesity in asymptomatic patients is presumed. None of these conditions apply for this patient without evidence of previous or present gastrointestinal disease. The striking changes of the colon wall are exceptional, although they have to be considered as a normal finding.

Abstract
Morphological examination is the routine first step in the diagnosis of hematological malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Atypical cell morphology according to the FAB criteria is known to herald disease progression. Several years ago, it was proposed that FAB morphology at diagnosis had a considerable prognostic impact. However, this proposal has not been widely adopted in practice. Thus we questioned the prognostic value of the morphological examination, which was performed retrospectively in 88 patients out of our 110 institutional registry patients (70 males and 40 females, median age 57 yrs) with CLL at diagnosis. We related the results to the more modern prognostic markers. Atypical FAB morphology was shown to correlate with IgVH gene mutation status, trisomy of chromosome 12 and deletion of 17p detected either by conventional G-banding or by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. The correlation of FAB morphology with CD38 antigen expression or with the histopathological pattern of bone marrow infiltration was not significant. Overall survival (OS) data were available for 84 morphologically examined patients. The patients with atypical morphology (64 patients) had a significantly shorter OS (103 months) than the 20 patients presenting with typical CLL morphology (237 months; p=0.03). Only the mutation status of IgVH genes correlated more closely with OS (p=0.002). Of note, there was no leukemia-related death within "unmutated" cases who had typical FAB morphology (p=0.14), and vice versa, the mutation status had a significant prognostic impact within the morphologically atypical cases (p=0.01). Thus FAB morphology and the mutation status may yield complementary prognostic information. OS was affected both by the presence of cytogenetic aberrations (p=0.03) - most adversely by deletions of 17p and 11q, and by CD38 expression (p=0.003). We conclude that careful examination of peripheral blood smears according to FAB is a simple, cheap and valuable tool in the first-line assessment of prognosis of CLL patients and should not be overlooked even in 3rd millennium when more sophisticated prognostic markers are at hand. This ought to be confirmed in larger prospective studies with multivariate analysis of data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite a considerable effort, the majority of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients do not have a suitable specific molecular marker for monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD). The results of some studies suggest the Wilms tumour gene (WT1) as a possible molecular marker of MRD. METHODS AND RESULTS We measured the expression of WT1 at diagnosis and during treatment of the acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients. The expression of WT1 was measured by the quantitative real-time RT-PCR in peripheral leukocytes from 56 AML at diagnosis and 7 patients with AML transformed from myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The WT1 expression was significantly elevated (up to 3 orders of magnitude) in peripheral blood samples (PB) of AML patients at diagnosis compared to PB samples of healthy donors (P < 0.0001). The level of WT1 expression depends particularly on FAB AML subtype, with the highest being found in AML patients with subtypes M4, M1, M3 and AML transformed from MDS. Conversely, AML patients with M2 and with the presence of AML1/ET0 at presentation showed a significantly lower expression of the WT1 gene compared to the remaining AML patients at presentation (P = 0,005). Further, sequence samples of 12 AML patients under long-term surveillance were tested for the WT1 expression in parallel with the expression of specific MRD markers--fusion genes: AMLI/ETO, PML/RARalpha and CBFB/MYH11. The levels of WT1 gene expression and the above specific fusion genes significantly correlated. Moreover, 14 patients without the specific MRD marker were tested for the WT1 expression. The results show that haematological relapses were associated with the rise of expression of the specific fusion genes and with the WT1 gene expression. The rise of WT1 expression above the level seen in leucocytes from peripheral blood and/or bone marrow of healthy donors--in four patients under long-term surveillance the "molecular relapse" predicted ongoing haematological relapses as early as 2 months in advance. CONCLUSIONS Our results, in accordance with some of the previously published ones, show that WT1 expression seems to be a suitable marker of minimal residual disease in AML patients.

Abstract
Stereotactic surgery is based on a high degree of accuracy in defining and localising intracranial targets and placing surgical tools. Brain shift can influence its accuracy significantly. Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus can markedly change the quality of life of patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, but the outcome depends on the quality of electrode placement. A patient is reported in whom the placement of the second electrode was not successful. Deformation field analysis of pre- and postoperative three dimensional magnetic resonance images showed an intraoperative brain movement of 2 mm in the region of the subthalamic nucleus (the target point). Electrode repositioning resulted in efficient stimulation effects. This case report shows the need to reduce risk factors for intraoperative brain movement and demonstrates the ability of deformation field analysis to quantify this complication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether individual falls risk could be predicted in a frail elderly population. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING We developed and tested an assessment tool and falls risk score for predicting falls based on a multivariate regression model in a prospective cohort study of intermediate care residents. RESULTS During the follow-up period, 1,736 falls by 1,107 subjects were recorded with an average of 170 falls per 100 person-years. Fifty percent of the study population had at least one fall within a year. Significant independent risk factors were poor balance, cognitive impairment, incontinence, higher illness severity rating, and older age. Twenty-two percent of participants with a falls risk score > or =7 accounted for 42% of the total falls, with a falls rate of 317 per 100 person-years. This rate was a sixfold increase from the falls rate of 52 per 100 person-years observed in participants with a score < 3. A high score (> or =7) indicated almost a 2 in 3 chance of falling, while a low score (<3) indicated approximately a 1 in 7 chance of falling within 6 months. CONCLUSION The assessment tool and falls risk score could identify individuals in this frail elderly population at high risk of falls.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Of various endoscopic hernia repair procedures, TAPP and TEP have been selected for routine use. METHODS Results from Medline research were analysed. RESULTS There is a similar risk for postoperative morbidity for both techniques. The recurrence rate in large single-centre series is between 0% and 3.4%. There were numerous indications for both procedures, whereby a transperitoneal TAPP can also be applied in cases of previous preperitoneal operations. CONCLUSION Randomised trials comparing both methods of hernia repair are lacking. Seven non-randomised studies showed no differences in recurrence rate and morbidity. In general the learning curve for is shorter in favour of TAPP repair.

Abstract
It is recognised that the focus of health-care interventions for frail older persons should not be restricted to increasing longevity, but should encompass measures aimed at improving or maintaining the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of these individuals. We studied the HRQoL profile of 612 frail older persons residing in nursing homes and hostels in northern Sydney, Australia, and sought to ascertain some of the factors that affect their perceived quality of life. Our findings suggest that common health states that may cause loss of independence and dignity (e.g. presence of osteoarthritis, presence of urinary incontinence, previous fracture, Parkinson's Disease and increasing frailty as reflected by residence in nursing homes) are strongly, and independently, associated with the HRQoL of institutionalised older persons. Some of these conditions may be amenable to intervention.

Abstract
The carrier molecule that transports dopamine (DA) into dopamine neurons by an electrogenic, Na(+)- and Cl(-)-transport-coupled mechanism is known as the dopamine transporter (DAT). This uptake system is exclusively expressed in DA neurons with significantly higher levels of DAT expression in cells of the substantia nigra pars compacta than those of the ventral tegmental area and arcuate hypothalamic neurons. The expression density of DAT strongly correlates with the extent of DA cell loss in Parkinson's disease (PD). There are also DAT gene polymorphisms associated with PD. These data suggest a role of the DAT in the pathogenesis of PD. Though selective for its respective neurotransmitter, the DAT can also transport synthetic/natural analogues of the transmitter. Should such compounds interact with vital intracellular structures, their penetration into the neuron might have significant consequences. This sequence of toxic events could indeed demonstrated for the synthetic toxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), which produces selective degeneration of DA neurons characteristic of PD. Dopaminergic toxicity of its active metabolite 1-methyl-4-pyridinium (MPP(+)) is mediated by the DAT through accumulation into DA neurons, where it inhibits mitochondrial complex I activity. Various endogenous and exogenous heterocyclic molecules, which are structurally related to MPTP/MPP(+), such as isoquinolines and beta-carbolines, have been reported to exhibit similar toxic properties on DA cells, which are conferred by their uptake by the DAT. Taken together, there is large body of evidence from morphological, molecular biological and toxicological studies indicating that the DAT might be responsible for the selectivity of DA cell death in PD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma is an invasive and destructive tumor, and may cause death by local extension or because of metastasis. We report the case of a patient with a giant squamous cell carcinoma of the nose and extension to the brain and discuss the main risk factors from this extension. OBSERVATION Resection of a giant squamous cell carcinoma was performed of the nose in a 45 year-old man after debulking radiotherapy. Histological examination disclosed a well-differentiated tumor and perineural involvement, with at least a 6 mm margin. A first relapse occurred on the orbital edge of the initial resection, the lesion was removed revealing an involvement of the infra-orbital nerve. Whilst the patient was receiving chemotherapy, a second relapse occurred responsible for ophthalmoplegia and loss of vision, with involvement of the left orbital apex, cavernous sinus and temporal lobe. The patient died from grand mal seizures. DISCUSSION Brain extension of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma of the head is rare. It develops along the anatomic pathways, especially perineural spread. Main risk factors for such a poor course are discussed, including the size of tumor, the anatomic site, the depth and perineural invasion.

Abstract
Very frail older people constitute an increasing proportion of the aging population and often have vitamin D deficiency and impaired renal function. Primary hyperparathyroidism has been associated with increased mortality, but it is unclear whether secondary hyperparathyroidism is associated with increased mortality independent of renal function and vitamin D status. This study aimed to examine the effect of vitamin D deficiency and secondary hyperparathyroidism on mortality in frail older people after accounting for renal function and general measures of health. We evaluated 842 subjects (182 men with a mean age of 81.9 yr and 660 women with a mean age of 86.2 yr) living in residential aged care facilities in Sydney, Australia in a prospective, cohort study. Over a mean duration of follow-up of 31 months, 345 subjects died. Baseline serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D, serum PTH, and bone ultrasound attenuation were significantly associated with mortality in univariate and multivariate analyses (for PTH, a hazard ratio of 1.39 for time to death) after correcting for age and gender. In multivariate analyses that corrected for health status, nutritional status, and renal function, PTH remained a significant predictor of mortality but not 25-hydroxy vitamin D or bone ultrasound attenuation. Serum PTH appears to be associated with increased mortality in the frail elderly independent of vitamin D status, renal function, bone mass, and measures of general health. The mechanism of this effect requires further investigation.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the occurrence and clinical characteristics of Helicobacter heilmannii infection among children presenting with dyspeptic symptoms. METHOD Prospective cohort study of 580 patients. RESULTS Of all examined dyspeptic children, 26.4% were infected with spiral-shaped organisms, and 0.9% of patients were found to be infected with spiral H. heilmannii-like organisms. CONCLUSION In children with dyspeptic symptoms, the possible presence of gastroduodenal disease due to H. heilmannii should be considered. Further studies are needed to clarify H. heilmannii-related gastroduodenal pathology in the paediatric population.

Abstract
Falls remain a major cause of mortality and morbidity for older Australians, despite considerable growth in falls prevention activity in recent years. Risk factors for falls are well defined, and there is a growing evidence base from randomized controlled trials in community settings indicating a range of effective individual and multiple strategy interventions to reduce falls and falls injuries. These range from health promotion approaches, such as group exercise programmes, through to multidisciplinary, multifactorial interventions for high-risk populations. Practitioners need to utilize a range of strategies to enhance uptake and sustained participation in falls prevention activities. Future research needs to address important gaps, such as compliance issues, and interventions for people with cognitive impairment, dizziness and vision loss. Further research is also required in residential care and hospital settings, where there is relatively little research evidence to guide practice.

Abstract
Putative neurotoxic actions of levodopa and neuroprotective effects of dopamine agonists, as indicated by laboratory and animal studies, provide the rationale to study their effect on the progression of Parkinson's disease. Aim of this pilot study was to compare the effects of monotherapy with the dopamine agonist alpha-dihydroergocryptine (DEC) versus monotherapy with levodopa on nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons as measured with dopamine transporter (DAT) SPECT. 25 PD patients (H&Y stages 1 to 2.5) entered this study and were treated in a randomized fashion either with DEC (101+/-39 mg) or levodopa (369+/-51 mg) monotherapy. 16/25 patients (8 per group) terminated the study after 52 weeks. In each patient SPECT investigations with [123I]IPT were performed at baseline and after 52 weeks to assess changes of specific DAT binding over time. Changes in clinical symptoms were assessed by UPDRS score. The mean annual decline rate in striatal IPT-binding was lower in the DEC group (8.4%) compared to the levodopa group (10.4%). The difference was most accentuated in the putamen (DEC: 7.3%; levodopa: 16.2%; p = 0.16). Due to the small sample size and the relatively short observation period, however, group differences did not reach a statistical significant level. The results of this pilot study suggest that as compared to levodopa monotherapy DEC may have beneficial effects on decline of dopamine transporter binding similar to those recently described for pramipexole.

Abstract
Very frail older people constitute an increasing proportion of ageing populations and often have vitamin D deficiency. Falls are frequent in this population and have usually been associated with vitamin D deficiency. In this prospective study we measured serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), serum PTH, and falls in 637 ambulatory subjects living in institutional aged care facilities (intermediate-care hostels or nursing homes). The study sample comprised 121 men (mean age, 82.1 yr) and 516 women (mean age, 86.7 yr). Two hundred and seventy-four subjects fell one or more times over a mean duration of follow-up of 10.2 months. Vitamin D deficiency, defined as a serum 25OHD level below 39 nmol/liter was present in 73.6%. Baseline serum 25OHD and PTH were significantly associated with falls in univariate analyses. In multivariate analyses that also corrected for balance and health status, PTH remained a significant predictor of falls independent of 25OHD. Serum PTH is a predictor of time to first fall in the frail elderly independent of vitamin D status and measures of general health.

Abstract
Lymphadenectomy in gastric cancer became vital and obligatory part of staging procedure. Therapeutic effect of lymphadenectomy with patient's prognosis improvement still remains uncertain. In subgroups, extensive lymphadenectomy enhance radicality of the procedure, enables to reach R0 resection in the area of tumour bed and hopefully improves survival. D2 lymphadenectomy is now becoming as a standard also in our country. Technique and possible complications of D2 lymphadenectomy are the matter of this article.
