Abstract
Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) such as in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) are still discussed critically, as there is no consensus on whether these treatments could be the cause of risk factors for obstetric problems such as breech presentation. The aim of this study was to test the association between ART and breech presentation among 11920 singleton term births taking place in Vienna from 2010 to 2020. In this single-centre medical record-based study, data concerning the conception mode (spontaneous versus IVF or ICSI), child presentation, birth mode, newborn sex and size as well as age, height, weight, and reproductive history of the mother were included. Three hundred twenty-six newborns (2.7%) were conceived by IVF or ICSI, and 527 newborns (4.4%) were delivered in breech presentation. Breech presentation occurred in 7.6% of IVF/ICSI children but only in 4.3% of spontaneously conceived children (P = 0.019). ART increased the crude risk of breech presentation significantly (OR = 1.67; 95% CI 1.71 - 2.38). After adjusting for maternal age, height, number of previous births, smoking, and newborn sex, however, ART had no longer a significant impact on the risk of breech presentation. In contrast, breech presentation was significantly associated with higher maternal age as well as a lower number of previous births, but not with ART. This study shows that the adverse outcomes of IVF and ICSI pregnancies may not be due to the ART treatment alone but might also be due to the mostly higher age and lower parity of the mothers using ART.

Abstract
In this work we investigated mixtures from α-glycosylation of rubusoside with cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases. In addition to the previously known α-1,4 glycosylated derivatives, nine new compounds with rare α-1,3-glycosidic bonds were identified based on nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometric analysis. Furthermore, sensory properties of monoglycosylated rubusoside derivatives were investigated and compared to previously described monoglycosylated compounds. Additionally, digestion with α-amylase from human saliva was investigated for different glycosylated rubusoside derivatives.

Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, there were increased concerns about glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Therefore, we aimed to assess changes in diabetes management during the COVID-19 lockdown for patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T1DM, T2DM) in Germany. We included data from 24,623 patients (age>18 years) with T1DM (N=6,975) or T2DM (N=17,648) with documented data in 2019 and 2020 from the multicenter Diabetes-Prospective Follow-up registry (DPV). We conducted a groupwise comparison of identical patients in 2019 and 2020 for different time periods of pandemia. Pairwise differences of continuous parameters of treatment modalities and metabolic outcome between 2019 and 2020 were adjusted for seasonality, age, and diabetes duration. We presented these outcomes as adjusted medians with 95% confidence intervals. Rates were compared using negative-binomial models, dichotomous outcomes were compared using logistic models. Models were additionally adjusted for age and diabetes duration. These outcomes were presented as least-square means with 95% confidence intervals, p-values of<.05 were considered significant.In participants with T1DM, CGI (combined glucose indicator) increased only by 0.11-0.12% in all time periods of 2020 compared to 2019 (all p<0.001) while BMI decreased slightly by -(0.09-0.10) kg/m² (p<0.0001). In participants with T2DM, HbA1c increased by 0.12%, while BMI decreased slightly by -(0.05-0.06) kg/m² (p<0.0001).During the COVID-19 lockdown period, patients with T1DM and T2DM experienced only clinically insignificant changes in glucose control or body weight. Despite lockdown restrictions, patients were able to maintain metabolic control.

Abstract
In free B-DNA, slow (microsecond-to-millisecond) motions that involve equilibrium between Watson-Crick (WC) and Hoogsteen (HG) base-pairing expand the DNA dynamic repertoire that could mediate DNA-protein assemblies. R1ρ relaxation dispersion NMR methods are powerful tools to capture such slow conformational exchanges in solution using 13C/15 N labelled DNA. Here, these approaches were applied to a dodecamer containing a TTAAA element that was assumed to facilitate nucleosome formation. NMR data and inferred exchange parameters assign HG base pairs as the minor, transient conformers specifically observed in three successive A·T base pairs forming the TAA·TTA segment. The abundance of these HG A·T base pairs can be up to 1.2% which is high compared to what has previously been observed. Data analyses support a scenario in which the three adenines undergo non-simultaneous motions despite their spatial proximity, thus optimising the probability of having one HG base pair in the TAA·TTA segment. Finally, revisiting previous NMR data on H2 resonance linewidths on the basis of our results promotes the idea of there being a special propensity of A·T base pairs in TAA·TTA tracts to adopt HG pairing. In summary, this study provides an example of a DNA functional element submitted to slow conformational exchange. More generally, it strengthens the importance of the role of the DNA sequence in modulating its dynamics, over a nano- to milli-second time scale.

Abstract
Existing epidermal transplantation procedures applied in burn surgery or wound treatment, such as mesh grafting or the Meek method, do not lead to a restoration of all the skin layers. Dermal skin layers are indispensable in ensuring the quality and function of the transplanted skin as a frictional surface and a carrier of skin appendages such as hair, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands, as well as nerve receptors for detecting pressure, vibration, and temperature. Because of the restricted skin surface area that can be provided by the donor, full-skin transplants cannot be transplanted over a large area. Cultured skin procedures, based on skin cells cultivated in a laboratory, have not yet reached a stage of development where a complex full epidermal transplantation is possible. In particular, the introduction of skin appendages with a functional cell-to-cell communication has not been observed thus far in cultivated skin. Based on the Reverdin transplantation method, in which concave skin islands with epidermal and dermal parts are transplanted, Davis in 1910 described the transplantation of multiple 2-5 mm sized full-skin islands as a new method for the treatment of skin lesions. Further modifying this 100-year-old procedure, we developed a miniaturization and automation of the Davis transplantation method that started in 2011 and called it "SkinDot". In the following article we describe the effectiveness of the full-skin island transplant procedure in two patients. The transplantation of single 2-3 mm full-skin islands results in a full-skin equivalent without any limits on donor area and with a reduced donor morbidity.

Abstract
A skin cell-spray grafting technique that enables the on-site application of freshly isolated autologous single cell suspensions was already applied in many cases on caucasian patients with low skin coloration. Our project hypothesis is that these suspensions contain keratinocytes and vital melanocytes, that are of particular interest for the treatment of patients of darker skin color. To test this, we applied an in vitro model, wherein the feasibility of i) isolating and ii) spraying of freshly isolated autologous melanocyte-keratinocyte cell suspensions was investigated. Primary human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs) and melanocytes (MCs) were isolated from skin biopsies (n=8). Biochemical parameter, cell counts, cell morphology, growth behavior and immunofluorescence results were compared in two groups using MC cultures and co-cultures of MCs with HEKs. Case information on using the method clinically with one patient is included. The sprayed mixed cell suspensions proliferated in all groups without measurable loss of viability, and MCs exhibited a regular cell morphology in monoculture up to passage 4°. The sprayed MCs and HEKs demonstrated in vitro glucose and lactate metabolism that was comparable to the pipetted controls. In co-culture, well distributed CK14+ HEKs and NKI/beteb+ MCs could be demonstrated, which interacted in the in vitro model. The ratio of HEKs : MCs in our primary cultures were microscopically counted (n=8 each) as mean +/- SD 1,211,000 (+/- 574,343) HEK : 99,625 (+/- 59,025) MC; i.e., a ratio of approx. 12 : 1. Using the isolation method clinically for a patient with dark skin coloration after suffering severe second-degree burns shows a satisfying re-pigmentation of the resulting wound post healing. Freshly isolated spray-on melanocyte/keratinocyte suspensions provide for a considerable amount of viable HEKs and MCs. Using MCs in spray-grafting suspensions could represent a promising approach for treating severe partial-thickness burns and innovative therapy developments that also aim to address cosmetic aspects.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer diagnosed during pregnancy and occurs between one in 3000 to one in 10 000 pregnancies. The first international guidelines for the diagnosis and therapy of pregnancy associated BC (PABC) has been developed in 2003. The 5 year survival rate is similar to the non-pregnant women with the same stage of disease. In contrast to the data about the oncological outcome of patients with PABC, the literature about quality of life (QoL) of those patients is lacking. The aim of the study was to investigate the QoL of patients with PABC.
Materials and methods: Patients with PABC diagnosed and treated at our department in the period between 2000 and 2016 were included in the study. Clinical and demographic data were collected from the data base. The QOL was assessed using the EORTC QLQ-C30, the EORTC QLQ-BR 45 and the EORTC SHQ-22. The QoL results were compared with reference data (EORTC Reference Values) of BC patients. Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and t-test to test the significance.
Results: In the analysed period, twenty-one patients with PABC were found. In 16 patients BC had been diagnosed during the pregnancy and in 5 patients during the first year after delivery. Mean age at the time of diagnosis was 34.24 (SD±3.3), mean pregnancy week 21.14 (SD±10.28), and 8 months (SD±5.0) for patients with the diagnosis in the first year after the delivery. All patients underwent surgery, as well as chemotherapy. In addition, 10 patients received hormonal therapy and 12 irradiation.
16 patients lived at the time of the QoL assessment and received the QoL questionnaire per mail. After the mean follow up of 5.2 years, there were no statistically significant differences in EORTC QLQ C30 scales between our population and reference data except for constipation which a better score in our population. Clinical relevant differences were found in scales: physical functioning, role functioning and symptom dyspnea with the better score in our population. Our patients reported clinical relevant more financial difficulties. In the disease specific questionnaire EORTC BC 45, patients with PABC showed statistically significantly worse score in the following scales: body image, upset by hair loss, side effects of the systemic therapy and future perspective. 40% of the patients had a decreased libido and 37% of patients reported that therapy negatively impaired sexual activity. 25% of patients reported that they fill less feminine because of the disease.
Conclusion: The results revealed that QoL in patients with PABC is more impaired compared to the overall QoL reference data of BC patients. Despite the small number of patients, the results indicate that PABC patients are a vulnerable group, especially regarding outer appearance (body image, upset by hair loss, fill les feminine). The QLQ BR 45 showed more sensitivity to assess the impact on QoL of these patients than EORTC QLQ C30 and underlines the necessity to use disease-specific questionnaires in specific patient populations.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to assess cytogenetic and embryoscopic characteristics in subsequent miscarriages of spontaneous pregnancy losses (SPL) and recurrent pregnancy losses (RPL). METHODS A retrospective cohort of 75 women was affected by repeated pregnancy loss. Of those, 34 had SPL, 24 primary RPL, and 17 secondary RPL. Ploidy status and morphology was analyzed by transcervical embryoscopic examination of the embryo and cytogenetic analysis of the chorionic villi in subsequent miscarriages. RESULTS Similar rates of recurrent ploidy status were observed between first and second miscarriage in SPL and RPL (82.4% recurrent ploidy status in SPL, p > 0.999; 73% recurrent ploidy status in RPL, p = 0.227). No difference was found regarding recurrent abnormal morphology between SPL and RPL (p = 0.092). However, secondary RPL resulted significantly more often in recurrent abnormal morphology compared to primary RPL (p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS High rates of recurrent normal/abnormal karyotypes were observed in all groups with a majority of embryos presenting with recurrent abnormal morphology. Secondary RPL presented significantly more often with recurrent abnormal morphology compared to primary RPL. These findings offer prognostic information for the affected patient and might impact treatment choice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ghrelin, an orexigenic peptide, is secreted from endocrine cells in the gastric mucosa. Circulating levels rise in the preprandial phase, suggesting an anticipatory or cephalic phase of release, and decline in the postprandial phase, suggesting either the loss of a stimulatory factor or inhibition by factors released when nutrients enter the intestine. We hypothesized that vagal signals are not required for the (i) preprandial increase or (ii) postprandial suppression of ghrelin levels. Further, we wanted to investigate the hypothesis that (iii) glucagon-like peptide-1 might be implicated in the postprandial decline in ghrelin levels. METHODS We measured ghrelin levels in plasma from sham-feeding and meal studies carried out in vagotomized individuals and controls, and from a GLP-1 infusion study carried out in fasting healthy young individuals. KEY RESULTS We find that (i) ghrelin secretion is unchanged during indirect vagal stimulation as elicited by modified sham-feeding in vagotomized individuals and matched controls, (ii) ghrelin secretion is similarly suppressed after meal ingestion in vagotomized individuals and controls, and (iii) infusion of GLP-1 does not lower ghrelin levels. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES We conclude that for postprandial suppression of circulating ghrelin levels, a circulating factor (but not GLP-1) or short (duodeno-gastric) reflexes seem to be implicated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is associated with an increased risk of postprandial hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia, but the underlying pathophysiology remains poorly understood. We therefore examined the effect of re-routing of nutrient delivery on gut-islet cell crosstalk in a person with severe postprandial hypoglycaemia after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. CASE REPORT A person with severe postprandial hypoglycaemia, who underwent surgical reversal of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, was studied before reversal and at 2 weeks and 3 months after reversal surgery using liquid mixed meal tests and hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamps. The nadir of postprandial plasma glucose rose from 2.8 mmol/l to 4.1 mmol/l at 2 weeks and to 4.4 mmol/l at 3 months after reversal. Concomitant insulin- and glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion (peak concentrations and area under the curve) clearly decreased after reversal, while concentrations of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and ghrelin increased. Insulin clearance declined after reversal, whereas clamp-estimated peripheral insulin sensitivity was unchanged. The person remained without symptoms of hypoglycaemia, but had experienced significant weight gain at 15-month follow-up. DISCUSSION Accelerated nutrient absorption may be a driving force behind postprandial hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Re-routing of nutrients by reversal of the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass diminished postprandial plasma glucose excursions, alleviated postprandial insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 hypersecretion and eliminated postprandial hypoglycaemia, which emphasizes the importance of altered gut-islet cell crosstalk for glucose metabolism after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Abstract
PURPOSE Non-invasive methods for monitoring of the therapeutic ion beam extension in the patient are desired in order to handle deteriorations of the dose distribution related to changes of the patient geometry. In carbon ion radiotherapy, secondary light ions represent one of potential sources of information about the dose distribution in the irradiated target. The capability to detect range-changing inhomogeneities inside of an otherwise homogeneous phantom, based on single track measurements, is addressed in this paper. METHODS Air and stainless steel inhomogeneities, with PMMA equivalent thickness of 10mm and 4.8mm respectively, were inserted into a PMMA-phantom at different positions in depth. Irradiations of the phantom with therapeutic carbon ion pencil beams were performed at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center. Tracks of single secondary ions escaping the phantom under irradiation were detected with a pixelized semiconductor detector Timepix. The statistical relevance of the found differences between the track distributions with and without inhomogeneities was evaluated. RESULTS Measured shifts of the distal edge and changes in the fragmentation probability make the presence of inhomogeneities inserted into the traversed medium detectable for both, 10mm air cavities and 1mm thick stainless steel. Moreover, the method was shown to be sensitive also on their position in the observed body, even when localized behind the Bragg-peak. CONCLUSIONS The presented results demonstrate experimentally, that the method using distributions of single secondary ion tracks is sensitive to the changes of homogeneity of the traversed material for the studied geometries of the target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tyrosinemia type II, also known as Richner-Hanhart Syndrome, is an extremely rare autosomal recessive disorder, caused by mutations in the gene encoding hepatic cytosolic tyrosine aminotransferase, leading to the accumulation of tyrosine and its metabolites which cause ocular and skin lesions, that may be accompanied by neurological manifestations, mostly intellectual disability. AIMS To update disease-causing mutations and current clinical knowledge of the disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Genetic and clinical information were obtained from a collection of both unreported and previously reported cases. RESULTS We report 106 families, represented by 143 individuals, carrying a total of 36 genetic variants, 11 of them not previously known to be associated with the disease. Variants include 3 large deletions, 21 non-synonymous and 5 nonsense amino-acid changes, 5 frameshifts and 2 splice variants. We also report 5 patients from Gran Canaria, representing the largest known group of unrelated families sharing the same P406L mutation. CONCLUSIONS Data analysis did not reveal a genotype-phenotype correlation, but stressed the need of early diagnosis: All patients improved the oculocutaneous lesions after dietary treatment but neurological symptoms prevailed. The discovery of founder mutations in isolated populations, and the benefits of early intervention, should increase diagnostic awareness in newborns.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Capecitabine is a well-established treatment option in HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (ABC) patients. Bendamustine is a generally well tolerated cytotoxic drug. Since bendamustine has already shown anticancer activity in ABC we evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of bendamustine in combination with capecitabine in pretreated patients with ABC. Here we present the final PFS results of this phase II trial.
Patients and methods: MBC-6 is a non-randomized, multicenter, open-label, single-arm phase II study in patients with HER2-negative ABC (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01891227). All patients were pretreated with anthracyclines and/or taxans and had measurable disease according to RECIST 1.1. Patients received 1000 mg/m2 capecitabine twice daily on days 1 to 14 in combination with 80 mg/m2 bendamustine on day 1 and 8 of a 3-week cycle for a maximum of 6 cycles. Afterwards capecitabine was continued as monotherapy. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), clinical benefit rate (CBR), safety and quality of life.
Results: From September 2013 to May 2015, 40 patients were recruited in eight Austrian centers. Median age was 60 years (range 29-77). Twenty-five percent of patients had triple-negative disease (TNBC) and 93% showed visceral involvement. Sixty-five percent had received prior chemotherapy in the (neo)adjuvant setting and 63% for ABC (43% one line, 15% two lines, 5% three lines). All patients with ER-positive disease had received prior endocrine therapy.At data cut-off on 06/08/16 overall 39 of 40 patients had discontinued treatment with a median PFS of 7.0 months (95% CI 4.6-9.5), 7.4 months in ER-positive and 4.0 months in triple negative disease (TNBC), respectively. Twelve patients (30%) experienced at least one drug related non-hematological AE ≥ grade 3 during combination treatment and further 6 patients (15%) during capecitabine maintenance. Three grade 4 hematological AEs (neutropenia) were observed. One patient died as a result of restrictive cardiomyopathy, where a relationship to capecitabine cannot be excluded, but seems unlikely.
Conclusion: The combination of capecitabine and bendamustine shows promising efficacy and a moderate toxicity profile. Further evaluation of this drug combination is warranted.Background: Capecitabine is a well-established treatment option in HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (ABC) patients.

Sixty-five percent had received prior chemotherapy in the (neo)adjuvant setting and 63% for ABC (43% one line, 15% two lines, 5% three lines). All patients with ER-positive disease had received prior endocrine therapy.At data cut-off on 06/08/16 overall 39 of 40 patients had discontinued treatment with a median PFS of 7.0 months (95% CI 4.6-9.5), 7.4 months in ER-positive and 4.0 months in triple negative disease (TNBC), respectively. Twelve patients (30%) experienced at least one drug related non-hematological AE ≥ grade 3 during combination treatment and further 6 patients (15%) during capecitabine maintenance. Three grade 4 hematological AEs (neutropenia) were observed. One patient died as a result of restrictive cardiomyopathy, where a relationship to capecitabine cannot be excluded, but seems unlikely.
Conclusion: The combination of capecitabine and bendamustine shows promising efficacy and a moderate toxicity profile. Further evaluation of this drug combination is warranted.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this review was to evaluate the time-related risk for knee osteoarthritis in patients after ACL injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS The primary search was carried out in different medical databases with the deadline 12.01.2014. The search strategy for the evaluation was [ACL] AND [osteoarthritis] including "all fields". All 1656 title/abstracts were reviewed by two independent researchers who selected 140 papers for full text review. Finally, a total of 21 relevant publications were identified for inclusion in this current paper. RESULTS The incidence of knee osteoarthritis rises significantly over time. Two years after injury it was 6.9%, after 5 years 32.2%, after 7 years 36.3%, and after 10 years 79.6%. At the same time, the crude relative risk of OA rises as the time interval since injury increases. The relative risk of OA has already doubled by 2 years after ACL injury). By 7 years it has increased fivefold and compared with OA status at the time of injury it is still increasing significantly after 10 years. CONCLUSIONS The ACL injury is a significant risk factor for the development of early-onset secondary knee osteoarthritis. Within 5 years of the injury the knee shows clear signs of osteoarthritis on MRI. However, these lesions are often not associated with any clinical signs. Knee osteoarthritis as a severe disease starts 8 years or later after the injury, when it requires treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Exaggerated postprandial secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY) may explain appetite reduction and weight loss after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), but causality has not been established. We hypothesized that food intake decreases after surgery through combined actions from GLP-1 and PYY. GLP-1 actions can be blocked using the GLP-1 receptor antagonist Exendin 9-39 (Ex-9), whereas PYY actions can be inhibited by the administration of a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor preventing the formation of PYY3-36. SUBJECTS/METHODS Appetite-regulating gut hormones and appetite ratings during a standard mixed-meal test and effects on subsequent ad libitum food intake were evaluated in two studies: in study 1, nine patients with type 2 diabetes were examined prospectively before and 3 months after RYGB with and without Ex-9. In study 2, 12 RYGB-operated patients were examined in a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover design on four experimental days with: (1) placebo, (2) Ex-9, (3) the DPP-4 inhibitor, sitagliptin, to reduce formation of PYY3-36 and (4) Ex-9/sitagliptin combined. RESULTS In study 1, food intake decreased by 35% following RYGB compared with before surgery. Before surgery, GLP-1 receptor blockage increased food intake but no effect was seen postoperatively, whereas PYY secretion was markedly increased. In study 2, combined GLP-1 receptor blockage and DPP-4 inhibitor mediated lowering of PYY3-36 increased food intake by ~20% in RYGB patients, whereas neither GLP-1 receptor blockage nor DPP-4 inhibition alone affected food intake, perhaps because of concomitant marked increases in the unblocked hormone. CONCLUSIONS Blockade of actions from only one of the two L-cell hormones, GLP-1 and PYY3-36, resulted in concomitant increased secretion of the other, probably explaining the absent effect on food intake on these experimental days. Combined blockade of GLP-1 and PYY actions increased food intake after RYGB, supporting that these hormones have a role in decreased food intake postoperatively.

Abstract
With the increasing numbers of passengers and crew on board vessels that are becoming larger and larger, the demand for ship's doctors who can adequately treat burns on board has also increased. In the cruise ship industry it is usually those doctor's with internal and general medical training who are recruited from an epidemiological point of view. Training content or recommendations for the treatment of thermal lesions with the limited options available in ship's hospitals and where doctors with no surgical training operate do not yet exist. The guidelines recommended by the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) regarding medical staff have only included physicians with minor surgical skills until now. With the introduction of the ATLS(®) course developed by the American College of Surgeons, the requirements for the qualification of the ship's doctor on board cruise ships shall change from January 2017. The article discusses the question of whether having completed the ATLS(®) course, the ship's doctor is trained to adequately treat thermal lesions or severe burns persons on-board, and presents the current discussion on the training content for ship's doctors within the International Maritime Health Association (IMHA). It also provides an overview of existing international regulatory frameworks, the risks presented by a fire on board, the problem of treating burns victims out of reach of coastal rescue services, and alternative training concepts for ship's doctors regarding the therapy of thermal lesions on-board.

Abstract
Background and Purpose Glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) affects lipid, bone and glucose homeostasis. High‐affinity ligands for the GIP receptor are needed to elucidate the physiological functions and pharmacological potential of GIP in vivo. GIP(1–30)NH2 is a naturally occurring truncation of GIP(1–42). Here, we have characterized eight N‐terminal truncations of human GIP(1–30)NH2. Experimental Approach COS‐7 cells were transiently transfected with human GIP receptors and assessed for cAMP accumulation upon ligand stimulation or competition binding with 125I‐labelled GIP(1–42), GIP(1–30)NH2, GIP(2–30)NH2 or GIP(3–30)NH2. Key Results GIP(1–30)NH2 displaced 125I‐GIP(1–42) as effectively as GIP(1–42) (Ki 0.75 nM), whereas the eight truncations displayed lower affinities (Ki 2.3–347 nM) with highest affinities for GIP(3–30)NH2 and GIP(5–30)NH2 (5–30)NH2. Only GIP(1–30)NH2 (Emax 100% of GIP(1–42)) and GIP(2–30)NH2 (Emax 20%) were agonists. GIP(2‐ to 9–30)NH2 displayed antagonism (IC50 12–450 nM) and Schild plot analyses identified GIP(3–30)NH2 and GIP(5–30)NH2 as competitive antagonists (Ki 15 nM). GIP(3–30) NH2 was a 26‐fold more potent antagonist than GIP(3–42). Binding studies with agonist (125I‐GIP(1–30)NH2), partial agonist (125I‐GIP(2–30)NH2) and competitive antagonist (125I‐GIP(3–30)NH2) revealed distinct receptor conformations for these three ligand classes. Conclusions and Implications The N‐terminus is crucial for GIP agonist activity. Removal of the C‐terminus of the endogenous GIP(3–42) creates another naturally occurring, more potent, antagonist GIP(3–30)NH2, which like GIP(5–30)NH2, was a high‐affinity competitive antagonist. These peptides may be suitable tools for basic GIP research and future pharmacological interventions.

Abstract
AIMS Treatment strategies for obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus aim to increase physical activity, reduce body weight, and improve glucose control using weight-beneficial antidiabetic drugs. The objective of this study was to determine whether these strategies are implemented, and to identify factors predictive of glucose control and body weight management in a large, real-world patient population. METHODS The prospective DiaRegis cohort study included 3807 patients with type 2 diabetes in whom the treating physician decided to intensify and optimize treatment because of insufficient glucose control. RESULTS Antidiabetic treatment of overweight and obese patients was compared with that of normal-weight patients over a 2-years follow-up period, and multivariate analyses were performed to identify predictors of body weight loss. Among the 3807 participants, 92.5 % were overweight or obese. Normal-weight participants were more often treated with sulfonylureas or insulin, and overweight and obese patients with metformin or glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 analogues. Predictors of weight loss were body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m(2) and any reported physical activity. CONCLUSIONS DiaRegis study shows that under real-world conditions, antidiabetic drug therapy is performed dependent on body weight. This strategy results in adequate glucose control and moderate weight reductions in overweight and obese patients. Weight loss is affected by treatment with weight-beneficial drugs, but also by any reported physical activity. However, only a small subgroup of patients perform physical activity. Initiation and maintenance of a physically active lifestyle remains a significant challenge for physicians, and patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Background and Purpose Specific, high potency receptor antagonists are valuable tools when evaluating animal and human physiology. Within the glucose‐dependent, insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) system, considerable attention has been given to the presumed GIP receptor antagonist, (Pro3)GIP, and its effect in murine studies. We conducted a pharmacological analysis of this ligand including interspecies differences between the rodent and human GIP system. Experimental Approach Transiently transfected COS‐7 cells were assessed for cAMP accumulation upon ligand stimulation and assayed in competition binding using 125I‐human GIP. Using isolated perfused pancreata both from wild type and GIP receptor‐deficient rodents, insulin‐releasing, glucagon‐releasing and somatostatin‐releasing properties in response to species‐specific GIP and (Pro3)GIP analogues were evaluated. Key Results Human (Pro3)GIP is a full agonist at human GIP receptors with similar efficacy (Emax) for cAMP production as human GIP, while both rat and mouse(Pro3)GIP were partial agonists on their corresponding receptors. Rodent GIPs are more potent and efficacious at their receptors than human GIP. In perfused pancreata in the presence of 7 mM glucose, both rodent (Pro3)GIP analogues induced modest insulin, glucagon and somatostatin secretion, corresponding to the partial agonist activities observed in cAMP production. Conclusions and Implications When evaluating new compounds, it is important to consider interspecies differences both at the receptor and ligand level. Thus, in rodent models, human GIP is a comparatively weak partial agonist. Human (Pro3)GIP was not an antagonist at human GIP receptors, so there is still a need for a potent antagonist in order to elucidate the physiology of human GIP.

Abstract
The calculation of REC forms the basis of expert opinions for the purposes of making accident insurance assessments after an occupational accident or an accident suffered en route while travelling to or from the workplace. The estimation of REC is based on a procedure quoted in the 1995 "Jahrbuch der Versicherungsmedizin" (Yearbook of Insurance Medicine) using a form developed by Henkel von Donnersmarck and Hoerbrand. The overall estimation of damages resulting from the accident comprises 3 main components, namely the functional impairment, the assessment of local findings and the resulting somatic and vegetative complaints. The criteria for all 3 components are nevertheless imprecise and open to a great deal of interpretation on the part of the evaluator, leading to a highly variable and subjective overall assessment of REC. The new REC form includes a modified factor-based categorisation of the scar quality and the localisation, so that assessment can now be carried out in a differentiated manner. Visible, stigmatising areas such as the neck are provided with their own Q values. The pigmental and textural alterations describing the scar quality are now more precisely defined. Considering the complexity of the somatic and vegetative alterations, more precise (objective) assessments can now be derived. The new REC form increases the validity and transparency of post-thermal trauma REC assessments for the purposes of making statutory accident insurance assessments.

Abstract
The total REC (reduction in earning capacity) after a thermal trauma is usually assessed using an appraisal form for burns victims, initially developed by Hoerbrandt and von Donnersmarck (1995). The criteria for functional impairment, local findings and vegetative-somatic complaints are somewhat imprecise given the broad scope of interpretation which the evaluator can employ in making an appraisal. This means that the overall appraisal of REC is subjective on the part of the evaluator. In addition, one can only calculate an overall REC of at most 40% from local findings and vegetative-somatic symptoms, even in patients with extensive large area burns. Considering these points we investigated the dependency of the results on the evaluator as well as the limited validity of the appraisal form originally developed by Hörbrand and Donnersmark.

Abstract
AIMS To assess whether the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor sitagliptin affects glucagon and other counter-regulatory hormone responses to hypoglycaemia in patients with type 1 diabetes. METHODS We conducted a single-centre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-period crossover study. We studied 16 male patients with type 1 diabetes aged 18-52 years, with a diabetes duration of 5-20 years and intact hypoglycaemia awareness. Participants received sitagliptin (100 mg/day) or placebo for 6 weeks and attended the hospital for three acute hypoglycaemia studies (at baseline, after sitagliptin treatment and after placebo). The primary outcome was differences between the three hypoglycaemia study days with respect to plasma glucagon responses from the initialization phase of the hypoglycaemia intervention to 40 min after onset of the autonomic reaction. RESULTS Sitagliptin treatment significantly increased active levels of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1. No significant differences were observed for glucagon or adrenergic counter-regulatory responses during the three hypoglycaemia studies. Growth hormone concentration at 40 min after occurrence of autonomic reaction was significantly lower after sitagliptin treatment [median (IQR) 23 (0.2-211.0) mEq/l] compared with placebo [median (IQR) 90 (8.8-180) mEq/l; p = 0.008]. CONCLUSIONS Sitagliptin does not affect glucagon or adrenergic counter-regulatory responses in patients with type 1 diabetes, but attenuates the growth hormone response during late hypoglycaemia.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the performances of commercially available glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) assays and the implications for clinical studies. METHODS Known concentrations (5-300 pmol/l) of synthetic GLP-1 isoforms (GLP-1 1-36NH2, 7-36NH2, 9-36NH2, 1-37, 7-37 and 9-37) were added to the matrix (assay buffer) supplied with 10 different kits and to human plasma, and recoveries were determined. Assays yielding meaningful results were analysed for precision and sensitivity by repeated analysis and ability to discriminate low concentrations. Endogenous GLP-1 levels in clinical samples were assessed using three commercial kits. RESULTS The USCN LIFE assay detected none of the GLP-1 isoforms. The active GLP-1 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) from Millipore and DRG appeared identical and were specific for intact GLP-1 in buffer and plasma. The Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) total GLP-1 kit detected all six GLP-1 isoforms, although recovery of non-active forms was incomplete, especially in plasma. Millipore total GLP-1 ELISA kit detected all isoforms in buffer, but mainly amidated forms in plasma. The Alpco, Phoenix and Bio-Rad kits detected only amidated GLP-1, but the Alpco kit had a limited measurement range (30 pmol/l), the Phoenix kit had incomplete recovery in plasma and the Bio-Rad kit was insensitive (detection limit in plasma 40 pmol/l). The pattern of postprandial GLP-1 responses in clinical samples was similar between the kits tested, but the absolute concentrations measured varied. CONCLUSIONS The specificity and sensitivity of commercially available kits for the analysis of GLP-1 levels vary considerably. This should be taken into account when selecting which assay to use and when comparing data from different studies.

Abstract
Transition from sow's milk to solid feed is associated with intestinal atrophy and diarrhea. We hypothesized that the intestinotrophic hormone glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) would induce a dose- and health status-dependent effect on gut adaptation. In Exp. 1, weaned pigs (average BW at weaning 4.98 ± 0.18 kg) were kept in a high-sanitary environment and injected with saline or short-acting GLP-2 (80 μg/(kg BW·12 h); n = 8). Under these conditions, there was no diarrhea and GLP-2 did not improve gastrointestinal structure or function. In Exp. 2, weaned pigs (average BW at weaning 6.68 ± 0.27 kg) were kept in a low-sanitary environment, leading to weaning diarrhea, and injected with saline or short-acting GLP-2 (200 µg/(kg BW·12 h); n = 11). Treatment with GLP-2 increased goblet cell density (P < 0.05) and reduced short chain fatty acid concentration in the colon (P < 0.01) but had limited effects on diarrhea. In Exp. 3, weaned pigs (average BW at weaning 6.90 ± 0.32 kg) were kept in a low-sanitary environment and injected with saline or a long-acting acylated GLP-2 analogue (25 µg/(kg BW·12 h); n = 8). In this experiment, GLP-2 increased intestinal weight (+22%; P < 0.01) and activity of brush border enzymes (+50-100%; P < 0.05). Circulating GLP-2 levels were in the pharmacological range in Exp. 3 (constant levels >20,000 pmol/L) and Exp. 2 (increases to 20,000 pmol/L for a few hours each day) while they were in the supraphysiological range in Exp. 1 (50-200 pmol/L). In conclusion, GLP-2 may improve gut structure and function in weanling pigs. However, the effects may be significant only under conditions of diarrhea and if GLP-2 exposure time is extended using long-acting analogues.
