Ambulante Schulung bei Typ-1-Diabetes

Background

Education for type 1 diabetic patients is an essential part of therapy; however, little is known about the current setting of education in Germany.

Aim

For the first time the PRIMASCOPE study was able to shed light on this topic.

Material and methods

A questionnaire regarding the setting and frequency of education, evaluation of available education programs and appraisal of possible goals and contents of education was sent to diabetologists throughout Germany. Data from 818 diabetologists could be analyzed.

Results

According to diabetologists nearly 25?% of patients with type 1 diabetes never took part in a structured education and 40?% of patients have an elevated need for diabetes education. The most important goals of diabetes education were enhancing self-management, optimizing quality of life and boosting motivation. In general, psychosocial goals and contents were rated as important as medical goals and contents. Furthermore, diabetologists indicated a great need for a follow-up education after 2 years for the topics motivation, physical activity, nutrition and hypoglycemia. Diabetologists were relatively dissatisfied with the best known education program “Treatment and Education Program for Intensified Insulin Therapy”. The best known problem-specific education program “HyPOS” achieved the highest satisfaction.

Conclusion

The results demonstrate that many type 1 diabetic patients are in need of a structured diabetes education. In addition, diabetes education is a complex intervention which should cover not only medical but also psychosocial goals. The current dissatisfaction with basic education programs suggests that a comprehensive education concept which covers both medical and psychosocial issues is lacking.     

Low rate of active treatment of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma

Introduction

The results of surgical resection and palliative chemotherapy use in hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC) have been well publicised but the proportion of patients able to undergo these treatments and the comparative outcomes in a population of patients with HC are less well known.

Methods

Patients with HC were identified by review of all patients undergoing percutaneous cholangiography over a nine-year period (2002–2010) in a tertiary facility. The treatment undertaken and outcomes were recorded.

Results

Overall, 68 patients were identified (37 female) with a median age of 70 years. Forty-five (66%) were treated solely by insertion of a metal stent (median survival 4.73 months) and nine (13%) also received palliative chemotherapy (median survival 13.7 months). Persisting jaundice after stent insertion was noted in 18 of 35 patients (51%) tested within one month of death. Fourteen patients (21%) underwent surgical resection (median survival 20.2 months).

Conclusions

Patients undergoing surgical resection had significantly longer survival than those receiving only a palliative stent but not compared with those also receiving palliative chemotherapy, with short-term follow-up. Only a third of patients, however, receive active treatment (surgery or chemotherapy) and improvements in long-term biliary palliation are needed.     

腹膜外切口单层缝合与常规分层缝合法在化脓性或坏疽性阑尾炎术后疗效比较中的系统评价

目的评价腹膜外切口单层缝合与常规分层缝合法在化脓性或坏疽性阑尾炎术后的临床疗效。方法计算机检索Co-chrane Library、PubMed、Embase、SCI、CNKI、CBM、VIP、WANFANG DATA,纳入腹膜外切口单层缝合与常规分层缝合法在化脓性或坏疽性阑尾炎术后疗效比较的随机对照试验,对纳入研究的方法学质量进行评价,用Cochrane协作网提供的RevMan 5.1软件对数据进行统计分析,并对统计结果进行系统评价。结果共纳入6个随机对照试验,共计1 885例患者。Meta分析结果显示:腹膜外切口单层缝合与常规分层缝合法在手术时间[MD=-17.09,95%CI(-19.32,-14.87)],术后切口感染率[RR=0.06,95%CI(0.03,0.12)],7 d内出院率[RR=1.17,95%CI(1.13,1.22)]方面差异均具有统计学意义,但两者在术后疼痛程度(需应用镇痛药物比率)[RR=1.05,95%CI(0.91,1.20)]方面的差异无统计学意义。结论目前研究表明,与常规分层缝合法相比,腹膜外切口单层缝合法能显著缩短化脓性或坏疽性阑尾炎患者的手术时间,降低术后切口感染率,提高7 d内出院率,但本研究纳入的样本量小且质量不高,因此,有必要开展更多高质量、多中心的随机盲法对照试验进一步予以证实其疗效。

Cross-sectional analysis of the implant-abutment interface

The purpose of this study was to develop a technique to evaluate the implant-abutment gap of an external hexagon implant system as a function of radius. Six implants of 3.75 mm in diameter (Conexao Sistema de Protese Ltda, Sao Paulo, Brazil) and their respective abutments were screw connected and torqued to 20 N cm(-1). The implants were mounted in epoxy assuring an implant long-axis position perpendicular to the vertical axis. Each implant was grounded through its thickness parallel to implant long-axis at six different distance interval. Implant-abutment gap distances were recorded along the implant-abutment region for each section. Individual measurements were related to their radial position through trigonometric inferences. A sixth degree polynomial line fit approach determined radial adaptation patterns for each implant. Micrographs along implant sections showed a approximately 300 mum length implant-abutment engagement region. All implants presented communication between external and internal regions through connection gaps and inaccurate implant-abutment alignment. Average gap distances were not significantly different between implants (P > 0.086). Polynomial lines showed implant-abutment gap values below 10 mum from 0 mum to approximately 250 mum of the implant-abutment engagement region. Gap distances significantly increased from approximately 250 mum to the outer radius of the implant-abutment engagement region. The technique described provided a broader scenario of the implant-abutment gap adaptation compared with previous work concerning implant-abutment gap determination, and should be considered for better understanding mechanical aspects or biological effects of implant-abutment adaptation on peri-implant tissues.     

Flare-ups in endodontics and their relationship to various medicaments

The purpose of this research is to investigate the frequency of endodontic flare-ups using a visual analogue scale. Definitions of flare-ups vary widely as does their reported frequency. A flare-up was defined as an increase of 20 or more points on the visual analogue scale for a given tooth, within the periods of 4 h and 24 h after the initial treatment appointment. The data from a previous study were used to determine the incidence of flare-ups after using three modalities (Ledermix, calcium hydroxide and no medication) to manage patients presenting for relief of pain of endodontic origin. A statistical analysis showed that there were no significant differences in flare-up rates at both the 4-h and 24-h periods between the three modalities. Further research is required using the above definition of a flare-up and standardising treatment protocols.
