Abstract
The semisynthetic cannabinoid hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) is currently getting a lot of media attention because the legal status in many countries is not clearly specified. In this study, a GC-MS method for the quantification of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), 11-hydroxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (11-OH-THC), and 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-COOH) was extended to (9R)- and (9S)-HHC. The applicability was proven by serum/plasma samples from drivers suspected of cannabis consumption. Limit of detection (LOD) and lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) were 0.15 and 0.25 ng/mL, respectively. Within-run imprecision was <6.5% and between-run imprecision was <10.0%. Inter-injection stability, processed sample stability (3 days), freeze-thaw stability (three cycles), and storage stability (1 week room temperature; 1 month 4°C, -20°C) could be proven. Both HHC diastereomers could be detected in 17 (5.3%) out of 321 analyzed samples from traffic controls in Western Saxony. The mean ratio between (9R)- and (9S)-HHC was 1.99 (CV = 14.6%). Quantification resulted in concentrations between

Abstract
Introduction: Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid A (THCA-A) is one of the main ingredients of cannabis plants and is converted to the psychoactive substance Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) by decarboxylation during heating above ∼90°C. During the consumption of cannabis, a varying proportion of THCA-A is absorbed into the body. Therefore, the quantification of THCA-A in serum/plasma might provide additional information on consumption behavior in driving under the influence of cannabis cases. Materials and Methods: In this study, an already established gas-chromatography mass-spectrometry (GC-MS) method for the quantification of THC, 11-OH-THC, and THC-COOH in serum and plasma samples was extended to include THCA-A. This validated method was then applied to 1228 routinely achieved serum/plasma samples from drivers suspected of cannabis consumption in Western Saxony. Two different grouping systems for chronic/occasional consumption, one system for acute/subacute consumption, Huestis formulas, and the cannabis influence factor (CIF) were used for evaluation. Results: Method validation showed appropriate results for forensic toxicological routine analysis. Limit of detection and lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) for THCA-A were 0.3 and 1.0 ng/mL, respectively. Reproducibility was <11% and accuracy ranged between 104% and 107%. THCA-A was stable in native samples at least for 2 weeks at room temperature or 4°C as well as 1 month at -20°C. Freeze-thaw stability for three cycles and processed sample stability over 3 days was proven. A total of 865 cases with a THC concentration above the German analytical cutoff of 1 ng/mL as well as the analytical LLOQs of 0.9 and 2.5 ng/mL for 11-OH-THC and THC-COOH, respectively, were included in further statistical analysis. In 407 (47.1%) of these samples, THCA-A was quantifiable. Different statistical analyses indicated a correlation between THCA-A and THC concentrations in cases of chronic and acute consumption. In addition, an increase of chronic and acute cases with increasing THCA-A concentrations was observed. However, no correlation between THCA-A and CIF was found. Discussion: These data show that THCA-A might be an additional indicative marker to provide information about consumption frequency and acuteness. Additional studies with known consumption frequencies and times are required to verify these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We describe the spatial distribution of Echinococcus multilocularis in its main definitive host, the red fox, and the distribution of human cases of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) within a highly endemic focus in southern Germany (13.7-19.9/100,000 in 1992-2018). Human cases were unequally distributed within the endemicity focus. The purpose of the study was to test whether this is reflected in the small-scale distribution of E. multilocularis in foxes. METHODS Three areas with contrasting numbers of human cases were selected within the counties of Ravensburg and Alb-Donau, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. From 2018 to 2020, a total of 240 fox carcasses were obtained from traditional hunters in these areas. Carcasses were necropsied and examined for the presence of intestinal helminths. The statistical analysis was performed with SAS version 9.4, and the geo-mapping with QGIS version 3.16.0 Hannover. RESULTS The prevalence of E. multilocularis in foxes was 44/106 (41.5%) in area I (commune Leutkirch and environs), 30/59 (50.8%) in area II (commune Isny and environs), and 31/75 (41.3%) in area III (commune Ehingen and environs). From 1992 to 2018, a total of nine human cases of alveolar echinococcosis were recorded in area I, five cases were recorded in study area III, and no cases were recorded in area II. No statistically significant differences between the areas were observed (P > 0.05) for intestinal infections with E. multilocularis, and no apparent spatial correlation with the small-scale distribution of human cases was found. Concerning other zoonotic helminths, Toxocara spp. were equally common, with prevalence of 38.7%, 47.4% and 48.0%, respectively, while the frequency of Alaria alata varied among the study areas (0.0-9.4%), probably reflecting the specific habitat requirements for the establishment of its complex life cycle. CONCLUSIONS Echinococcus multilocularis is highly prevalent in foxes in all the studied areas. The varying number of human AE cases within these areas should therefore be caused by factors other than the intensity of parasite transmission in foxes.

Abstract
Computed tomography coronary angiography (cCTA) is a safe option for the noninvasive exclusion of significant coronary stenoses in patients with a low or moderate pretest probability for coronary artery disease (CAD). Furthermore, it also allows functional and morphological assessment of coronary stenoses. The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines on the diagnosis and management of chronic coronary syndrome published in 2019 have strengthened the importance of cCTA in this context and for this reason it has experienced a considerable upgrade. The determination of the Agatston score is a clinically established method for quantifying coronary calcification and influences the initiation of drug treatment. With technologies, such as the introduction of electrocardiography (ECG)-controlled dose modulation and iterative image reconstruction, cCTA can be performed with high image quality and low radiation exposure. Anatomic imaging of coronary stenoses alone is currently being augmented by innovative techniques, such as myocardial CT perfusion imaging or CT-fractional flow reserve (FFR) but the clinical value of these methods merits further investigation. The cCTA could therefore develop into a gatekeeper with respect to the indications for invasive coronary diagnostics and interventions.

Abstract
Background: Human life without sperm is not possible. Therefore, it is alarming that the fertilizing ability of human spermatozoa is continuously decreasing. The reasons for that are widely unknown, but there is hope that metabolomics-based investigations may be able to contribute to overcoming this problem. This review summarizes the attempts made so far. Methods: We will discuss liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS), gas chromatography (GC), infrared (IR) and Raman as well as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Almost all available studies apply one of these methods. Results: Depending on the methodology used, different compounds can be detected, which is (in combination with sophisticated methods of bioinformatics) helpful to estimate the state of the sperm. Often, but not in all cases, there is a correlation with clinical parameters such as the sperm mobility. Conclusions: LC-MS detects the highest number of metabolites and can be considered as the method of choice. Unfortunately, the reproducibility of some studies is poor, and, thus, further improvements of the study designs are needed to overcome this problem. Additionally, a stronger focus on the biochemical consequences of the altered metabolite concentrations is also required.

Abstract
ZusammenfassungEin 90-jähriger Mann verstarb durch protrahiertes Verbluten aus einer, mittels Rasierklinge minimal eröffneten, oberflächlichen Beinvene über der Patella und nachfolgender Manipulation. Dabei handelte es sich wahrscheinlich um einen Ast der V. saphena accessoria anterior. Es lag zunächst eine Fehleinschätzung durch den leichenschauhaltenden Arzt vor, der von einer gastrointestinalen Blutung als Todesursache ausging. Diese Einschätzung teilten die Kriminalbeamten aufgrund der Auffindesituation nicht. Begünstigend war eine vorbestehende Varikosis. Die Einnahme von Antikoagulanzien oder eine vorbestehende oder erworbene Gerinnungsstörung konnte nicht nachgewiesen bzw. eruiert werden. Bei Vorlage eines Abschiedsbriefes und Ausschluss fremder Gewalteinwirkungen oder einer Vergiftung kann plausibel von einem ungewöhnlichen suizidalen Ereignis ausgegangen werden. Es wird über die Auffindung sowie die Ergebnisse der Sektion und umfangreicher Zusatzuntersuchungen berichtet.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with a GnRH agonist or the GnRH antagonist degarelix is a central component in the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). Little is currently known regarding the decision criteria. Knowledge of these could improve the success of treatment in the future. OBJECTIVES To identify factors influencing the treatment decision in patients with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer receiving ADT and to determine the incidence of concomitant disease in both treatment groups. METHODS The two-arm, prospective, non-interventional study "ProComD" was conducted from September 2014 to June 2019 at 80 study centers in Germany. After the therapy decision was made, patients with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer needing ADT were included in the study. Data were collected during routine visits. RESULTS Data from 413 patients were evaluated (degarelix N = 268; GnRH agonists N = 145). Key factors influencing the therapy decision for both treatment options included comorbidities (42% of all patients), compliance (64%), and age (81%). The source of information consulted most frequently regarding existing comorbidities was the patient's medical history conducted by the treating urologist themselves (65% in both groups). For patients with pre-existing cardiovascular diseases, the doctor's letter (45.8% degarelix vs. 38.9% GnRH agonists) or the medical history questionnaire (38.9% degarelix vs. 20% GnRH agonists) was additionally taken into account. CONCLUSION Comorbidities along with age and compliance are among the key factors influencing the treatment decisions made by urologists.

Abstract
Currently, spermiogram analysis is the most relevant method used to clarify the potential infertility of a couple. However, in some cases, the reasons for infertility remain obscure. Smoking is among the factors that have been described to adversely affect male fertility. Smoking increases oxidative stress and thus promotes various pathological processes. Comparative studies, particularly those on metabolomic changes in sperm and seminal plasma caused by smoking, have not yet been published. Thus, the present pilot study aimed at the mass spectrometric characterization of the metabolomes of specimens from both smoking and nonsmoking subjects and the comparison of the evaluated data in terms of sperm apoptosis and spermiogram parameters. The results provided evidence that the conventional spermiogram is not altered in smokers compared to nonsmokers. However, a more careful investigation of sperm cells by metabolomic profiling reveals profound effects of smoking on sperm: first, nitrogen oxide synthase, a marker of oxidative stress, is activated. Second, the uptake of fatty acids into sperm mitochondria is reduced, leading to an impaired energy supply. Third, phenylalanine hydroxylation and tryptophan degradation, which are both indications of altered tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis, are reduced. Moreover, flow cytometry approaches indicated increased sperm caspase-3 activity, a sign of apoptosis. The present study clearly shows the negative effects of smoking on semen quality. Especially for idiopathic cases, metabolomic profiling can help to shed light on male subfertility or infertility.

Abstract
Background Arterial stiffness (AS) has emerged as a strong predictor of cardiovascular (CV) diseases. Although increased AS has been described as a predictor of atrial fibrillation (AF), its role as a risk marker for AF recurrence has not yet been elucidated. Methods Patients with AF who underwent pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) were included in this study. Presence of AS was evaluated by measuring aortic distensibility (AD) of the descending aorta by transoesophageal echocardiography. Results In total, 151 patients (mean ± standard deviation (SD) age 71.9 ± 9.8 years) were enrolled and followed for a median duration of 21 months (interquartile range 15.0–31.0). During follow-up, AF recurred in 94 (62.3%) patients. AF recurrence was seen more frequently in patients with permanent AF (27% vs 46%, p = 0.03) and in those who had undergone prior PVI (9% vs 23%, p = 0.02). AD was significantly reduced in patients with AF recurrence (mean ± SD 2.6 ± 2.3 vs 1.5 ± 0.7 × 10−3 mm Hg−1, p < 0.0001), as well as left atrial volume index (LAVI) (mean ± SD 29 ± 12 vs 44 ± 15 ml/m2, p < 0.0001). Multivariable analysis revealed LAVI (odds ratio (OR) 2.9, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.2–3.4) and AS (OR 3.6, 95% CI 2.8–4.1) as independent risk factors of AF recurrence. Conclusion Increased AS and left atrial size were independent predictors of AF recurrence after PVI. AD as surrogate marker of AS seemed to reflect the overall CV risk. In addition, AD was significantly correlated with left atrial size, which suggests that increased AS leads to atrial remodelling and thus to AF recurrence.

Abstract
Background
Despite the increasing role of ultrasound, structured
ultrasound teaching is only slowly being integrated into the curricula of
medical schools and universities all over Europe.
Aim
To survey the current situation at European universities regarding
the integration of ultrasound in student medical education and to report on
models of student ultrasound training from selected European universities.
Methods
A questionnaire survey focusing on the implementation of
curricular ultrasound education was sent out to the 28 presidents of the
national ultrasound societies of the European Federation of Societies for
Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB), who were asked to distribute the
questionnaires to the medical universities of their countries.
Results
Overall, 53 questionnaires were returned from 46 universities in
17 European countries. In most of the universities (40/46 universities,
87%), the theoretical background of ultrasound is taught. However, in
only a minority of universities is ultrasound integrated in anatomy courses
(8/46 universities, 17%) or basic science courses (16/46
universities, 35%). Practical skills in ultrasound are taught in
56% of the universities (26/46 universities) and tested in a
practical exam in seven of the responding universities (15%). The number
of hours in which ultrasound was taught ranged from one to 58 (mean, seven). The
respondents reported that lack of time and limited faculty funding were major
hurdles.
Conclusion
According to our survey, only a minority of European
universities has integrated ultrasound into the preclinical curriculum thus far.
Future EFSUMB initiatives will continue to promote the introduction of
ultrasound as an integrative part of the core curriculum of student medical
education, and the preparation of proper teaching material.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a rare disease in Austria, Switzerland and Germany (DACh) caused by an infection with the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis. The aim of the study was to describe differences in the detection and reporting systems of alveolar echinococcosis in Austria, Switzerland and Germany and to describe epidemiological trends. METHODOLOGY As part of an epidemiological update on 6th September 2019 in Ulm, Germany, experts and representatives discussed differences in the reporting and recording systems as well as the current epidemiological situation. RESULTS Since 2004, Austria has had an obligation to report suspected cases, diseases and deaths of alveolar echinococcosis by name in accordance with §1 Para. 1 of the Epidemiegesetz 1950 (EpidemieG) and the Ordinance on Notifiable Communicable Diseases. According to §7 Para. 3 of the German Infection Protection Act (IfSG), Germany has also been subject to a reporting obligation since 2001, but not by name. In addition, national registers are available in both countries, which can be used to answer scientific questions. In Switzerland, there is no obligation to report human alveolar echinococcosis since 1997. Efforts are currently being made to implement a national register for alveolar echinococcosis in Switzerland. Despite different reporting and recording systems, a similar epidemiological trend can be observed for DACh. CONCLUSIONS In Austria, Switzerland and Germany there is a slightly increasing trend of human cases with alveolar echinococcosis. The direct comparability is limited due to different reporting obligations. The structures often do not allow a joint answering of scientific questions concerning diagnostics, treatment and care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the optimal management of singleton breech presentation. MATERIALS AND METHODS The PubMed database, the Cochrane Library and the recommendations from the French and foreign obstetrical societies or colleges have been consulted. RESULTS In France, 5% of women have breech deliveries (Level of Evidence [LE3]). One third of them have a planned vaginal delivery (LE3) of whom 70% deliver vaginally (LE3). External cephalic version (ECV) is associated with a reduced rate of breech presentation at birth (LE2), and with a lower rate of cesarean section (LE3) without increases in severe maternal (LE3) and perinatal morbidity (LE3). It is therefore recommended to inform women with a breech presentation at term that ECV could be attempted from 36 weeks of gestation (Professional consensus). In case of breech presentation, planned vaginal compared with planned cesarean delivery might be associated with an increased risk of composite perinatal mortality or serious neonatal morbidity (LE2). No difference has been found between planned vaginal and planned cesarean delivery for neurodevelopmental outcomes at two years (LE2), cognitive and psychomotor outcomes between 5 and 8 years (LE3), and adult intellectual performances (LE4). Short and long term maternal complications appear similar in case of planned vaginal compared with planned cesarean delivery in the absence of subsequent pregnancies. A previous cesarean delivery results for subsequent pregnancies in higher risks of uterine rupture, placenta accreta spectrum and hysterectomy (LE2). It is recommended to offer women who wish a planned vaginal delivery a pelvimetry at term (Grade C) and to check the absence of hyperextension of the fetal head by ultrasonography (Professional consensus) to plan their mode of delivery. Complete breech presentation, previous cesarean, nulliparity, term prelabor rupture of membranes do not contraindicate planned vaginal delivery (Professionnal consensus). Term breech presentation is not a contraindication to labor induction when the criteria for acceptance of vaginal delivery are met (Grade C). CONCLUSION In case of breech presentation at term, the risks of severe morbidity for the child and the mother are low after both planned vaginal and planned cesarean delivery. For the French College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (CNGOF), planned vaginal delivery is a reasonable option in most cases (Professional consensus). The choice of the planned route of delivery should be shared by the woman and her caregiver, respecting the right to woman's autonomy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Based on coronary computed tomography angiography (cCTA), stenoses can be detected but provides anatomical assessment solely. Fractional flow reserve based on coronary CT angiography (ML-cFFR) is gaining in importance for non-invasive hemodynamic assessment of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), as several large trials demonstrated significantly improvements in diagnostic accuracy to cCTA. Comparably instantaneous wave free ratio (iFR) is a novel resting index for the invasive determination of haemodynamic relevant stenoses, finds consideration in the ESC guideline on myocardial revascularization and is now of equal standing with FFR as a class IA recommendation.
Purpose
The aim of our study was to evaluate the on-site ML-cFFR in terms of diagnostic accuracy and clinical practicability in comparison to the iFR as the current invasive gold standard to detect hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenoses.
Methods
In our prospective, multi-center study, patients with CAD who had a clinically indicated cCTA and subsequent invasive coronary angiography with iFR-measurement were included. To analyse the acquired cCTA dataset we used a third-generation dual-source CT with on-site prototype ML-cFFR software that is based on a machine-learning algorithm, to determine the hemodynamic relevance of coronary stenoses.
Results
Between July 2017 and December 2018, in 40 of 42 cases (95%), the on-site ML-cFFR calculation was successful. Finally we enrolled 40 patients (72.5% males, mean age 66.7±11.9 years) with ML-cFFR calculation based on cCTA and iFR-measurement during ICA. The mean calculation time of the ML-cFFR values was 10.6±1.9minutes. 57 vessel specific lesions were analysed, of which 15 (26%) were determined as hemodynamically relevant stenoses by iFR (iFR≤0.89) whereas ML-cFFR classified only 14 (24.5%) as hemodynamic significant coronary stenoses (ML-cFFR≤0.80). We observed that cCTA overestimated the severity of stenoses in 27 of 40 cases, which might lead to unnecessary coronary angiographies. However, ML-cFFR detected no obstructive CAD in 26 of 40 patients (65%) and this would have resulted in a reduction of initially performed pure diagnostic coronary angiography. Estimated values sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV were 86.7%, 97.4%, 92.9% and 95.0%. The diagnostic accuracy of ML-cFFR in terms of iFR on a per-patient and per-lesion level was 95.0% and 96.5%. The area under the curve (AUC) on a per-lesion and per-patient basis by ML-cFFR to detect lesion specific ischemia was 0.97 and 0.96. The analysis of the correlation (Pearson's product-moment) on a per-lesion level was r=0.82 (p<0.0001) between the ML-cFFR algorithm and iFR.
Conclusion(s)
On-site ML-cFFR correlates excellently with the novel gold standard iFR to non-invasively detect hemodynamic significant coronary stenoses in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of patients treated with bioresorbable scaffold (BRS) for off-label versus approved indications.
Background
The BRS promised some advantages in terms of complete biodegradation, however, the implication of BRS for off-label indications is not well described.
Methods
The short- and long-term outcome after implantation of a bioresorbable scaffold system (ABSORB, Abbott Vascular, USA) was evaluated in the prospective, non-interventional, multicenter real-world German-Austrian ABSORB RegIstRy (GABI-R).
Results
A total of 3,188 patients were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups: on-label BRS use (33.0%) and off-label use (66.9%) if at least one off-label use criteria was met. The incidence of scaffold thrombosis in confirmed cases was significantly higher in off-label group (1.36% vs. 0.57%, p=0.04; OR 2.41 (95% CI: 1.00–5.82) with also a trend towards higher myocardial infarction rate (2.39% vs. 1.42%, p=0.077; OR 1.70 (95% CI: 0.95–3.03) and cardiovascular death (1.27% vs. 1.14%, p=0.76, OR 1.11 (95% CI: 0.56–2.21) at 6 months follow up.

Abstract
PURPOSE Human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a potentially lethal zoonosis caused by the cestode Echinococcus multilocularis. The aim of this systematic review is to establish a comprehensive global AE literature overview taking into account the epidemiologically relevant AE research of the twenty-first century. METHODS We systematically searched the global literature published from 2001 through 2018 via MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Russian databases eLIBRARY.RU, CyberLeninka, the Chinese databases CNKI, VIP, Journals. RESEARCH ac.ir (Farsi language-based), Jordan E-Library (Arab language-based) and supplementary Google Scholar, in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. QGIS software was used for the mapping of the affected countries. RESULTS We have listed 154 relevant publications in the final literature synopsis in consideration of our quality assessment. Including non-autochthonous cases, human AE was reported in 36 countries within the northern hemisphere from 2001 to 2018. The first publication of AE in Tajikistan, Pakistan, South Korea, Belgium, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Slovenia and Morocco occurred in this century; further first cases in Taiwan, Thailand, and Denmark were considered to be non-autochthonous by the authors. The highest total case numbers (n ≥ 100 in a single article) were reported in France, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, and Lithuania, including China and Kyrgyzstan with by far the highest prevalence figures. CONCLUSIONS Our paper emphasises the increasing spread of reported cases and the rise in its numbers in the literature of the twenty-first century, especially in western, northern and eastern Europe, as well as in central Asia. Epidemiological studies on human infections are lacking in many parts of the world.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) presents a relevant alternative to coronary bypass surgery for the treatment of patients with complex coronary artery disease and high perioperative risk. By temporary implantation of a percutaneous ventricular assist devices (pVAD) interventionalists attempt to anticipate the hemodynamic risk of those high-risk patients in a so-called protected PCI. The Impella® system presents the currently most common device for protected PCI and could show hemodynamic stability in earlier trials.
Methods
This study is a retrospective, observational multi-center registry of ten hospitals in Germany. We included patients undergoing protected high-risk PCI with Impella® support. The primary endpoint was defined as major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during a 180-day follow-up and consisted of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke.
Results
Six of the participating hospitals performed a follow-up. In total, 157 patients (80.3% male; mean age 71.8±10.8 years) were included in the present study. Prior to PCI, median left ventricular ejection fraction was 39.0% (25.0%-50.0%) and median SYNTAX-Score I was 33.0 (24.0–40.5). The 180-day follow-up was available for 149 patients (94.9%). Eight patients (5.1%) were lost to follow-up. During the follow-up period, 34 patients (22.8%) suffered from a MACE. A total of 27 patients (18.1%) died. Nine patients (6.0%) sustained a MI, while 4 patients (2.7%) had a stroke.
Kaplan-Meier curves for primary endpoint
Conclusions
Patients undergoing protected high-risk PCI with Impella® support show a good 180-day clinical outcome regarding rates of MACE and mortality. However, a head-to-head comparison of Impella supported patients to protected PCI with other pVADs is pending.

Abstract
In 50% of all infertility cases, the male is subfertile or infertile, however, the underlying mechanisms are often unknown. Even when assisted reproductive procedures such as in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection are performed, the causes of male factor infertility frequently remain elusive. Since the overall activity of cells is closely linked to their metabolic capacity, we analyzed a panel of 180 metabolites in human sperm and seminal plasma and elucidated their associations with spermiogram parameters. Therefore, metabolites from a group of 20 healthy donors were investigated using a targeted LC-MS/MS approach. The correlation analyses of the amino acids, biogenic amines, acylcarnitines, lysophosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylcholines, sphingomyelins and sugars from sperm and seminal plasma with standard spermiogram parameters revealed that metabolites in sperm are closely related to sperm motility, whereas those in seminal plasma are closely related to sperm concentration and morphology. This study provides essential insights into the metabolome of human sperm and seminal plasma and its associations with sperm functions. This metabolomics technique could be a promising screening tool to detect the factors of male infertility in cases where the cause of infertility is unclear.

Abstract
Ultrasound is the most commonly used diagnostic method in everyday clinical practice aside from conventional radiography. For prospective physicians, there is a gap between the increased requirements in everyday clinical practice and the skills acquired thus far, especially when dealing with sonography. In this work, we would like to present the structure of our sonography course and its implementation in the Ulm core curriculum of medical studies. The sonography course is based on two pillars. The Sonography Seminar (Pillar 1) has a lecturer who regularly conveys interdisciplinary theoretical content, fundamentals and possible fields of application for sonography during 13 appointments of 45 minutes. The internship (Pillar 2) consists of four appointments of two hours each. The groups of four students are supervised by a student tutor. In addition to the technical basics and an introduction to the device customer, the organ systems liver, gallbladder and biliary tract, kidneys and adrenal glands, spleen, pancreas, abdominal vessels and lymph nodes are mediated. The focus is on the realistic exercises with high-end ultrasound equipment used in small groups with a final practical test. The structure and procedure of the course was evaluated as being very positive by the students.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of cardiac tachyarrhythmia. It is estimated that in the Rhein-Neckar region approximately 40,000-50,000 out of 2 million people are affected. Due to demographic changes in the near future there will be a significant increase in the prevalence of AF within the next decades. The ARENA project was initiated by the Foundation Institute for Cardiac Infarction Research (IHF) Ludwigshafen in cooperation with cardiological and neurological departments of neighboring hospitals, resident doctors and pharmacies to improve the awareness and care of patients with AF. The particular aim is the prevention of stroke as one of the most dreaded complications. The project focusses on the following three subtopics: interventions, medication, migration. The aim of the intervention project is to raise awareness of AF as a risk factor for stroke and to improve the diagnostic work-up and care for patients with diagnosed or unknown AF. The subproject medication focusses on the adherence of patients with AF to the prescribed antithrombotic medication. To evaluate differences concerning patients with and without a migration background the subproject migration was initiated.

Abstract
When a behavior is monitored, it is likely to change, even if no change may be intended. This phenomenon is known as measurement reactivity. We investigated systematic changes in accelerometer-based measures over the days of monitoring as an indicator of measurement reactivity in an adult population. One hundred seventy-one participants from the general population (65% women; mean age = 55 years, range: 42-65 years) wore accelerometers for 7 consecutive days to measure sedentary behavior and physical activity (PA). Latent growth models were used (a) to investigate changes in accelerometer wear time over the measurement days and (b) to identify measurement reactivity indicated by systematic changes in sedentary time (ST), light physical activity (LPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Over the measurement days, participants reduced accelerometer wear time by trend (rate of change [b] = -4.7 min/d, P = .051, Cohen's d = .38), increased ST (b = 2.4 min/d, P = .018, d = .39), and reduced LPA (b = -2.4 min/d, P = .015, d = .38). Participants did not significantly reduce MVPA (P = .537). Our data indicated that accelerometry might generate reactivity. Small effects on ST and LPA were found. Thus, the validity of accelerometer-based data on ST and LPA may be compromised. Systematic changes observed in accelerometer wear time may further bias accelerometer-based measures. MVPA seems to be less altered due to the presence of an accelerometer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left atrial appendage (LAA) closure (LAAC) by implantation of an occlusion device is an established cardiac intervention to reduce risk of stroke while avoiding intake of oral anticoagulation medication during atrial fibrillation. Cardiac interventions can alter local or systemic gene and protein expression. Effects of LAAC on systemic metabolism have not been studied yet. OBJECTIVES We aimed to study the effects of interventional LAAC on systemic metabolism. METHODS Products of glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid and urea metabolism were analyzed by ESI-LC-MS/MS and MS/MS using the AbsoluteIDQ™ p180 Kit in plasma of 44 patients undergoing successful interventional LAAC at baseline (T0) and after 6 months (T1). RESULTS During follow up, plasma concentrations of several parameters of glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) and urea metabolism increased (alanine, hexose, proline, sarcosine), while others decreased (aspartate, glycine, SDMA, serine). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that time after interventional LAAC was an independent predictor for metabolite changes, including the decrease of SDMA (beta -0.19, p < 0.01) and the increase of sarcosine (beta 0.16, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Successful interventional LAAC affects different pathways of the metabolome, which are probably related to cardiac remodeling. The underlying mechanisms as well as the long term effects have to be studied in the future.

Abstract
Coronary angiography is considered as the gold standard in the morphological representation of coronary artery stenosis. Coronary angiography is often performed without preprocedural non-invasive proof of ischemia and the assessment of the severity of a coronary lesion by morphology is very subjective. Thus, invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement represents the current standard for estimation of the hemodynamic relevance of coronary artery stenosis and facilitates decision making for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and stenting. The FFR-guided revascularization strategy has been classified as a class IA recommendation in the 2014 ESC/EACTS guidelines on myocardial revascularization. Both the DEFER and the FAME studies showed no treatment advantage of hemodynamically irrelevant stenosis. By use of FFR (and targeted interventions), clinical results could be improved as well as the procedure costs were reduced; however, the use in clinical practice is still limited due to the need of adenosine administration and a significant prolongation of the procedure. Instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR®) is a new innovative approach for the determination of the hemodynamic relevance of coronary stenosis which can be obtained at rest without the use of vasodilators. Regarding periprocedural complications as well as prognosis, iFR® showed non-inferiority compared to FFR in the SWEDEHEART and DEFINE-FLAIR trials.
