Abstract
Wildlife must adapt to human presence to survive in the Anthropocene, so it is critical to understand species responses to humans in different contexts. We used camera trapping as a lens to view mammal responses to changes in human activity during the COVID-19 pandemic. Across 163 species sampled in 102 projects around the world, changes in the amount and timing of animal activity varied widely. Under higher human activity, mammals were less active in undeveloped areas but unexpectedly more active in developed areas while exhibiting greater nocturnality. Carnivores were most sensitive, showing the strongest decreases in activity and greatest increases in nocturnality. Wildlife managers must consider how habituation and uneven sensitivity across species may cause fundamental differences in human-wildlife interactions along gradients of human influence.

Abstract
Managing wildlife populations in the face of global change requires regular data on the abundance and distribution of wild animals, but acquiring these over appropriate spatial scales in a sustainable way has proven challenging. Here we present the data from Snapshot USA 2020, a second annual national mammal survey of the USA. This project involved 152 scientists setting camera traps in a standardized protocol at 1485 locations across 103 arrays in 43 states for a total of 52,710 trap-nights of survey effort. Most (58) of these arrays were also sampled during the same months (September and October) in 2019, providing a direct comparison of animal populations in 2 years that includes data from both during and before the COVID-19 pandemic. All data were managed by the eMammal system, with all species identifications checked by at least two reviewers. In total, we recorded 117,415 detections of 78 species of wild mammals, 9236 detections of at least 43 species of birds, 15,851 detections of six domestic animals and 23,825 detections of humans or their vehicles. Spatial differences across arrays explained more variation in the relative abundance than temporal variation across years for all 38 species modeled, although there are examples of significant site-level differences among years for many species. Temporal results show how species allocate their time and can be used to study species interactions, including between humans and wildlife. These data provide a snapshot of the mammal community of the USA for 2020 and will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, and the impacts of species interactions on daily activity patterns. There are no copyright restrictions, and please cite this paper when using these data, or a subset of these data, for publication.

Abstract
Leopardus tigrinus is among the least known carnivore species in the Neotropics, including considerable taxonomic uncertainty. Here we model the distribution, connectivity and overlap with existing conservation areas for the species in Colombia. Using a Species Distribution Modeling approach, we estimated current potential range of the species in Colombia and identified potential habitat blocks remaining in the country. In addition, we designed a connectivity network across the available cores, using a circuit theory approach, to evaluate habitat linkage. Finally, we defined a prioritization scheme for the remaining habitat cores and assessed the level of coverage of protected areas for the country. L. tigrinus is potentially present across the three Andean branches of Colombia, with still considerable continuous habitat cores, mostly located on the eastern and central Andean ranges. Most habitat cores are theoretically connected, but nearly 15% are isolated. Priority areas were located across the eastern and central ranges, but with very significant and promising cores in the northern eastern and western ranges. Current level of protection indicates nearly 30% of the range is “protected”, but only about 25% is under national strict protected areas. Evolution of this coverage showed some periods of significant increase but interestingly the number of cores grew at a faster rate than overall proportion protected, likely indicating numerous discontinuous fragments, and not contiguous functional landscapes. This represents the most updated assessment of the distribution and conservation status for the species in Colombia, and indicates the numerous conservation opportunities, especially in most populated areas of the country. We found unique business environmental passive’s opportunities, including compensation and development potential, which are becoming more available in the country.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
What are the consequences of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) on psychosocial wellbeing and quality of life (QOL)?
Summary answer
POI patients are at risk for mild to moderate depression. A multidisciplinary approach, embedded in a value-based healthcare setting, improves psychosocial wellbeing and QOL.
What is known already
POI is associated with an increased lifetime risk for depression and anxiety. Within the POI literature on QOL, few studies had set out to specifically and systematically examine QOL patterns and their physical and psychosocial predictors. Distinct aspects of POI such as the absence or presence of previous cancer diagnosis, concurrent unrelated health problems, vasomotor symptoms, and current treatment (e.g. fertility treatment or hormone replacement therapy (HRT)) may impact upon different QOL domains.
Study design, size, duration
All women were seen according to a value-based healthcare clinical pathway which included annual visits to the first multidisciplinary expertise center for POI. Women with POI who visited the outpatient clinic between January 2020 and January 2022 were prospectively included. As part of these visits patients were asked to complete 6 questionnaires (BDI-II, GCS, FertiQoL, WAI, PROMIS and a general health questionnaire), once before their first visit and again after 6 and 12 months.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
In total 199 women between 17 and 60 years completed the first set of questionnaires, at the time of analysis 89 women also completed the questionnaires at 6 months and 55 women at 12 months. The time between POI diagnosis and the first visit ranged from 0 to 36 years. Data was analyzed longitudinally and patients who were using HRT were compared to the ones that did not use HRT.
Main results and the role of chance
Women with POI reported mean ± SD BDI-II score of 15.2 ± 9.5 at the first visit, which is classified as mild to moderate depression. Furthermore, 52.3% of the patients had a BDI-II score of 14 or higher, indicating mild to moderate depression. Over time the BDI-II score decrease significantly (p = 0.023). 111 women used HRT at the first visit, but there was no difference between the BDI-II score of women how already used HRT and those that did not use HRT. The GCS score also improved significantly over time (p < 0.001) especially between the first and second visit at six months, indicating that menopausal symptoms decreased over time with the biggest effect after the first visit. FertiQoL a questionnaire used to assess QOL in fertility patients showed an improvement of QOL over time, between the first visit and the second visit (p = 0.037).
Limitations, reasons for caution
At the time of the first visit women were at different stages of their life and disease, which could impact the outcome of the questionnaires about psychosocial wellbeing and quality of life.
Wider implications of the findings
We want to underline the need for screening POI patients with specific questionnaires for psychosocial functioning and QOL. Furthermore, treating patients according to a value-based healthcare clinical pathway will significantly improve depression, menopausal symptoms and quality of life in patients with POI.

Abstract
The data of 86 patients with retrosigmoid microsurgical resection of vestibular schwannoma in tumor stage Koos II-IV were evaluated. In more than two thirds of the cases it was shown that the cochlear nerve followed the facial nerve, which is easily identified by electroneurography, in recurrent similar patterns in the region of the internal auditory canal. Starting from the fundus, this facilitated early identification and thus preservation of continuity of the cochlear nerve in the course of the internal auditory canal. This was of particular importance when safe functional preservation could not be guaranteed due to tumor size or formation despite intraoperative derivation of somatosenoric potentials, but when the possibility of subsequent hearing rehabilitation with a cochlear implant should be granted. Preoperative MRI sequences gave an indication of the possible nerve courses in some cases, but intraoperative imaging in the internal auditory canal was superior to MRI.

Background
Pace mapping is an established technique to localize the origin of premature ventricular contractions (PVC). The QRS morphology induced by endocardial pacing is compared with a previously recorded template of the target arrhythmia. Based upon historic in-vitro models pacing at the arrhythmia’s coupling interval (CI) and stimulation threshold has become the gold standard in pace mapping.
Purpose
There is a paucity of data supporting pacing at the CI and stimulation threshold as the gold standard for pace mapping. In this prospective study, we sought to assess systematically the impact of variations of pacing output and cycle length on the resulting QRS morphology during pace mapping in the context of PVC ablation (NCT05061498).
Methods
All patients undergoing ablation of idiopathic PVC were prospectively enrolled in this study. Pace mapping was performed using four different parameter settings: (1) A predefined fixed burst at maximum output (10V/2ms), (2) fixed burst at stimulation threshold, (3) coupling interval at maximum output and (4) coupling interval at stimulation threshold. Pacing cycle length (PCL) of the fixed burst was defined as follows: for a CI ≤450ms = PCL of CI+100ms and for a CI ≥450 = PCL of CI-100ms. Using an automated waveform comparison algorithm, the resulting QRS complexes were matched with the clinical PVC, and with the gold standard. For every parameter setting the mean of the matching percentage of three QRS complexes entered the analysis.
Results
We report data of the first 22 consecutive patients (53±15 years, 64% female) enrolled in this ongoing study between May and November 2021. The pacing protocols were performed at 39 different sites: 5/39 epicardially via great cardiac vein, 15/39 in the RVOT 12/39 and 7/22 in the left ventricular cavity. When comparing the QRS morphologies resulting from the four different pace mapping settings with the clinical PVC, the univariate analysis revealed no difference between groups (p=0.9). Furthermore, there was no difference comparing the paced QRS morphologies at different output and cycle length to the gold standard of threshold pacing at coupling interval (p=0.9).
Conclusion
Variations of pacing output and stimulation cycle length during pace mapping does not affect QRS morphology during PVC ablation. Applying a modern automated waveform comparison tool, no advantage was observed when comparing with the gold standard. It is therefore reasonable to assume, that pace mapping can be performed using an easily applicable setting of a fixed burst at maximum pacing output.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID(coronavirus disease)-19 pandemic is characterized by high infectivity, droplet transmission, and high viral load in the upper respiratory tract. Severe disease courses are associated with interstitial pneumonia and ventilated patients, in whom tracheotomy (TT)-a droplet- and aerosol-producing medical intervention-is regularly necessary. TT as a potential infection risk for medical staff is scarcely found in the literature. Therefore, the aim of this study was to quantify droplet exposure of the surgical team during TT, to better define the requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE). MATERIALS AND METHODS Surgical TT was performed in four non-infectious patients, during which the surgeon and his assistant both wore a surgical nasal mask with a transparent visor. After the procedure, the type, distribution, and number of droplets on the visor were determined macroscopically and microscopically. RESULTS An average of 29 droplets were found on the middle third of the visor, 4 on the right third, and 13 on the left third, with an average droplet size of 571 µm (± 381 µm). The smallest droplets were 55 µm, the largest 1431 µm. An increase in the number of droplets was found with increased ventilation during the procedure. Blood droplets were more common than secretion droplets. CONCLUSION Contamination of the visor with droplets was demonstrated. Especially in the case of TT in highly infectious patients, e.g., COVID-19 patients, the use of hooded headgear in combination with breathing apparatus with air purification and power supply is recommended to ensure best protection from infection for the surgeon and the surgical assistant.

Abstract
With the accelerating pace of global change, it is imperative that we obtain rapid inventories of the status and distribution of wildlife for ecological inferences and conservation planning. To address this challenge, we launched the SNAPSHOT USA project, a collaborative survey of terrestrial wildlife populations using camera traps across the United States. For our first annual survey, we compiled data across all 50 states during a 14-week period (17 August-24 November of 2019). We sampled wildlife at 1,509 camera trap sites from 110 camera trap arrays covering 12 different ecoregions across four development zones. This effort resulted in 166,036 unique detections of 83 species of mammals and 17 species of birds. All images were processed through the Smithsonian's eMammal camera trap data repository and included an expert review phase to ensure taxonomic accuracy of data, resulting in each picture being reviewed at least twice. The results represent a timely and standardized camera trap survey of the United States. All of the 2019 survey data are made available herein. We are currently repeating surveys in fall 2020, opening up the opportunity to other institutions and cooperators to expand coverage of all the urban-wild gradients and ecophysiographic regions of the country. Future data will be available as the database is updated at eMammal.si.edu/snapshot-usa, as will future data paper submissions. These data will be useful for local and macroecological research including the examination of community assembly, effects of environmental and anthropogenic landscape variables, effects of fragmentation and extinction debt dynamics, as well as species-specific population dynamics and conservation action plans. There are no copyright restrictions; please cite this paper when using the data for publication.

Abstract
Hintergrund Ab Frühjahr 2020 kam es zur weltweiten Verbreitung von SARS-CoV‑2 mit der heute als erste Welle der Pandemie bezeichneten Phase ab März 2020. Diese resultierte an vielen Kliniken in Umstrukturierungen und Ressourcenverschiebungen. Ziel unserer Arbeit war die Erfassung der Auswirkungen der Pandemie auf die universitäre Hals-Nasen-Ohren(HNO)-Heilkunde für die Forschung, Lehre und Weiterbildung. Material und Methoden Die Direktorinnen und Direktoren der 39 Universitäts-HNO-Kliniken in Deutschland wurden mithilfe einer strukturierten Online-Befragung zu den Auswirkungen der Pandemie im Zeitraum von März bis April 2020 auf die Forschung, Lehre und die Weiterbildung befragt. Ergebnisse Alle 39 Direktorinnen und Direktoren beteiligten sich an der Umfrage. Hiervon gaben 74,4 % (29/39) an, dass es zu einer Verschlechterung ihrer Forschungstätigkeit infolge der Pandemie gekommen sei. Von 61,5 % (24/39) wurde berichtet, dass pandemiebezogene Forschungsaspekte aufgegriffen wurden. Von allen Kliniken wurde eine Einschränkung der Präsenzlehre berichtet und 97,5 % (38/39) führten neue digitale Lehrformate ein. Im Beobachtungszeitraum sahen 74,4 % der Klinikdirektoren die Weiterbildung der Assistenten nicht gefährdet. Schlussfolgerung Die Ergebnisse geben einen Einblick in die heterogenen Auswirkungen der Pandemie. Die kurzfristige Bearbeitung pandemiebezogener Forschungsthemen und die Einführung innovativer digitaler Konzepte für die studentische Lehre belegt eindrücklich das große innovative Potenzial und die schnelle Reaktionsfähigkeit der HNO-Universitätskliniken, um auch während der Pandemie ihre Aufgaben in der Forschung, Lehre und Weiterbildung bestmöglich zu erfüllen.

Abstract
The German Society for Skull Base Surgery (Gesellschaft für Schädelbasischirurgie, GSB) has developed a protocol for the certification of GSB skull base centres. The development of such a protocol has led to numerous open and sometimes controversial discussions among the GSB members. The various critical discussion points will be reviewed and the ensuing results, which will then be included in the accreditation protocol, presented. The current GSB accreditation protocol will be presented and explained in an international comparison.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and purpose
Early registry data described a potentially increased risk for cerebrovascular events and mortality in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as valve-in-valve (viv) procedures. Further data of small patient cohorts described divergent results for cerebrovascular events and mortality in patients undergoing TAVR as viv procedures for failed surgical bioprotheses in comparison with patients on redo surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). We performed a meta-analysis of stroke rates and mortality for viv TAVR procedures basing on the current literature.
Methods
We included all case series (≥10 patients), case-control studies and randomized controlled trials comparing viv TAVR and redo SAVR procedures with respect to cerebrovascular events and mortality rates. Additionally, we included all case series and registries with patients undergoing viv TAVR. After a structured literature research, 17 studies were eligible. For statistical analysis risk ratios and confidence intervals using Mantel-Haenszel test and the I-statistic to quantify possible heterogeneity were calculated. A P-value <0.05 was defined as statistical significant difference.
Results
Eleven case series and registries reporting on stroke and mortality in 8,509 patients undergoing viv TAVR were eligible for analysis. The quantitative analysis of non-comparative studies showed a calculated 30-day stroke rate of 2.2% and 30-day mortality rate of 4.2% after viv TAVR. Data on the 1-year rates were sporadically reported, therefore meta analysis was not appropriately feasible.
Six studies reporting on 498 participants undergoing viv TAVR (N=254) and redo SAVR (N=244) were eligible. The median age ranged from 72.3 to 80.2 years for viv TAVR and from 66.2 to 78.8 years for redo SAVR patients. The STS score was 7.2–7.4% (viv TAVR) and 5.8–7.7% (redo SAVR), respectively. A total of 3/226 participants treated with viv TAVR and 4/214 patients undergoing redo SAVR experienced a stroke during the first 30 postoperative days (N=4 trials, RR 0.86, 95% CI 0.20 to 3.59, p=0.83, I2 = 0%). None of the studies reported sufficient data on the 1-year stroke incidence. The 30-day mortality was 4.3% for viv TAVR and 4.5% for redo SAVR patients. This difference was not significantly different (N=6 trials, RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.40 to 2.05, p=0.80, I2 = 0%). The 1-year mortality rates were 13.3% and 13.6%, respectively (N=2 trials, RR 0.98, 95% CI 0.49 to 1.94, p=0.94, I2 = 0%).
Conclusion
In the current literature favorable stroke and mortality rates at 30 days for patients undergoing viv TAVR are documented. Similar stroke and mortality rates comparing viv TAVR and redo SAVR patients at 30 days were found as well as similar 1-year mortality. A selection bias for the viv TAVR and redo SAVR patients may exist, but cannot be dissolved with this registry analysis, only showing a trend of younger and lower risk patients receiving a redo SAVR procedure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since December 2019, the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been rapidly spreading worldwide. In Germany, an exponential increase in the number of infections was registered at the beginning of March 2020 and led to a call of the Ministry of Health to create more capacity for intensive medical treatment in hospitals. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on Oto-Rhino-Laryngology (ORL) university hospitals regarding patient care. MATERIALS AND METHODS An online survey was sent out to all chairmen of the 39 ORL university hospitals in Germany. The answers to the questions referred to the defined period from March 15th to April 15th 2020 and were carried out using the online survey tool "SurveyMonkey". 87 questions focused on general information, health care, and structural effects in the respective institution. RESULTS All chairmen of the 39 university hospitals in Germany participated in the survey. The collected data prove the considerable impact on organizational, structural and medical aspects of patient care. For example, the surveyed clinics reported a decrease in outpatient cases by 73.8 % to 26.2 ± 14.2 % and in surgical treatments by 65.9 % to 34.1 ± 13.9 %. In contrast, emergency treatment remained unchanged or even increased in 80 % of the facilities and surgical treatment of emergency patients remained unchanged or even increased in more than 90 %. Emergency outpatient and surgical treatment of patients was provided throughout the pandemic in all facilities. In total, about 35 000 outpatients and about 12 000 surgical cases were postponed. As a result of the acute structural changes, the potential danger of falling below current treatment standards was seen in individual areas of patient care. DISCUSSION The assessment of the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is heterogeneous. The majority of the chairmen are critically aware of the risk of falling below current medical treatment standards or guidelines. In the phase of an exponential increase in the number of infections, significant changes in treatment processes had to be accepted for understandable reasons. However, with the currently significantly reduced number of infections, falling below treatment standards and guidelines should not be allowed to remain constant and tolerated. SUMMARY This study shows a differentiated picture with regard to the effects of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on outpatient, inpatient and operative patient care at the ORL university hospitals in Germany and illustrates the importance of these institutions for ensuring patient care during this critical phase.

Abstract
We used data from eight years of camera trapping at Rancho El Aribabi, a cattle ranch and conservation property in northern Sonora, Mexico, to examine the ecology of the northern-most known breeding population of ocelots (Leopardus pardalis). Ocelots were found mostly in two discrete and disjunct areas: a riverine riparian canyon at just less than 1,000 masl elevation and along arroyos in an oak-mesquite savanna in the Sierra Azul at 1,266–1,406 masl. An ocelot was also detected at a site between those two areas, in an area of a Sonoran desertscrub-foothills thornscrub ecotone at 1,300 masl. At least 18 ocelots, both males and females, were detected during the 2007–2011 and 2014–2018 sampling periods. A female with a kitten was documented in 2011. No individual ocelots were photographed in both areas, which are separated by a minimum of 11.29 km, and no individuals were photographed in both time periods. In a binary logistic regression, key environmental variables predicting ocelot presence were, in order of importance, distance to a paved road, distance to human habitation, proximity to water, and an anthropogenic influences index that was dominated by cattle. Another analysis corroborated the finding regarding ocelot presence and cattle. Contrary to previous studies, ocelot presence was not tied to vegetation cover close to the ground. We present information about the types of habitats and sites ocelots used, short-term movements, daily and seasonal activity patterns, and behavior, including occurrence of different individuals at or near the same site over short periods of time. We discuss ocelot home range, density, and movements, but small sample sizes and study design problems limit the value of estimates derived from our work. Rancho El Aribabi is a private, conservation ranch for which the owners have made voluntary conservation commitments that provide habitat and protection for ocelots and other animals and plants. This northern-most known breeding population is a likely source of ocelots that are periodically detected in southeastern Arizona. Our results should help facilitate conservation of the ocelot in other semi-arid areas of northwestern Mexico and adjacent USA.

Abstract
We studied a population of Atelopus varius in Las Tablas Protected Zone in southwest Costa Rica, where we estimated occupancy rates of tadpoles along the Cotón River. In addition, we report the first tadpoles observed in the wild in 20 years. Tadpole rate of occupancy was greater in habitat containing native forest than in disturbed areas bordering cattle pasture. This same pattern was also reflected in adult hotspots, where encounter rates were higher for adults in habitat surrounded by forest versus pasture. We present evidence for the potential effect of habitat modification on the presence and reproduction of A. varius and suspect that over time this modification impacts the species’ demography. However, further study is necessary before we can confirm that habitat change alone was the key factor involved in patterns of decline for the species.

Abstract
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a life-threatening clinical syndrome caused by severe hypercytokinemia brought on by a highly stimulated but ineffective immune response. Animal studies and case series have demonstrated that a reduction in blood cytokine levels achieved with an extracorporeal adsorption cartridge that contains blood-compatible porous polymer beads (CytoSorb®) can effectively attenuate the inflammatory response during sepsis and possibly improve outcomes. We report a case series of two patients in which three episodes of severe hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis triggered by infections with herpesviridae were treated successfully with cytokine adsorption. A marked decrease in interleukin-6 plasma levels and a stable or decreasing need of vasopressor therapy were the most significant results of this treatment. Importantly, treatment was safe and well-tolerated, without any adverse events.

Abstract
Nowadays, social projects are usually oriented in such a way that after a given period of time, they can either support themselves independently or even allow a pecuniary reimbursement. In the latter case, experts speak of a profit-oriented reimbursement. On the other hand, there is so-called social reimbursement, which in contrast to the abovementioned form is not profit oriented, but, for example, considers its task fulfilled by the fact of successful knowledge transfer. The Spanish-German Society for ENT Medicine and Head and Neck Surgery (SDGHNO) launched the Latin America project in 2001 under the patronage of the then President Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Draf (Fulda). The goal of the SDGHNO was and is to create a professional as well as cultural platform for Spanish- and German-speaking ENT doctors. This platform can and should be used for professional purposes, e.g., for knowledge transfer. Since the beginning of its existence, the Latin America project has thus brought numerous scientific events into being and created specific contacts which have lasted until today or have even been continued and further developed. Particularly successful examples are Chile, Colombia, and Peru. This is a vivid example of social reimbursement, because the participating German-speaking members/speakers carried out their tasks on an entirely voluntary basis. Thus, the SDGHNO did not bear any travel, catering, or accommodation costs. The activities of the SDGHNO within the framework of the Latin America project are explained.

Abstract
Atelopus varius was believed to be extinct in Costa Rica until the rediscovery of a population within the Las Tablas Protected Zone (LTPZ) in 2008. This rediscovery represented a research and conservation opportunity, including contributing new information about the species´ natural history. There are few reported species that prey on A. varius. This report presents a new predation record by a species of water bug (Abedus spp.) on an adult harlequin frog (A. varius). This is only the second confirmed predator for the species. These water bugs have been reported to prey on anurans during reproductive seasons, but in this case, the event occurred on A. varius out of their reproductive season. The effects of water bug predation on the only known reproductive population of this Critically Endangered species needs to be assessed to consider appropriate conservation measures to prevent further decline of the species.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to validate a minimally invasive, multi-port approach to the internal auditory canal at the lateral skull base on a cadaver specimen. METHODS Fiducials and a custom baseplate were fixed on a cadaver skull, and a computed tomography image was acquired. Three trajectories from the mastoid surface to the internal auditory canal were computed with a custom planning tool. A self-developed positioning system with a drill guide was attached to the baseplate. After referencing on a high precision coordinate measuring machine, the drill guide was aligned according to the planned trajectories. Drilling of three trajectories was performed with a medical stainless steel drill bit. RESULTS The process of planning and drilling three trajectories to the internal auditory canal with the presented workflow and tools was successful. The mean drilling error of the system (Euclidian distance between the planned trajectory and centerline of the actual drilled canal) was [Formula: see text] mm at the entry point and [Formula: see text] mm at the target. The inaccuracy of the drill process itself and its physical limitations were identified as the main contributing factors. CONCLUSION The presented system allows the planning and drilling of multiple minimally invasive canals at the lateral skull base. Further studies are required to reduce the drilling error and evaluate the clinical application of the system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient safety during operations hinges on the surgeon's skills and abilities. However, surgical training has come under a variety of restrictions. To acquire dexterity with decreasingly "simple" cases, within the legislative time constraints and increasing expectations for surgical results is the future challenge. OBJECTIVES Are there alternatives to traditional master-apprentice learning? MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature review and analysis of the development, implementation, and evaluation of surgical simulation are presented. RESULTS Simulation, using a variety of methods, most important physical and virtual (computer-generated) models, provides a safe environment to practice basic and advanced skills without endangering patients. These environments have specific strengths and weaknesses. CONCLUSIONS Simulations can only serve to decrease the slope of learning curves, but cannot be a substitute for the real situation. Thus, they have to be an integral part of a comprehensive training curriculum. Our surgical societies have to take up that challenge to ensure the training of future generations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Malignant and benign cells differ according to their elasticity. An atomic force microscope is a useful tool for measuring these mechanical cell properties. If cells of different dignity show different resonance behavior, due to their different elasticity, a selective ablation of specific tissue types by ultrasound would be possible. The goal is a highly selective ablation of tumor tissue without damaging healthy tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed elasticity measurements of tumor cells (UD-01 cell line) with an atomic force microscope. In a further step, an ultrasound applicator has been positioned and the morphological changes of the cells during the treatment were documented. RESULTS Different elasticities on the squamous cells were measured, depending on the location. Below a defined maximum amplitude the morphological cell changes were caused solely by ultrasonic excitation. SUMMARY The atomic force microscope is suitable for the determination of the individual cell elasticity. The data collected could be the basis for treatment modalities that lead to a very selective damage for malignant cells.

Abstract
A high proportion of plant species is predicted to be threatened with extinction in the near future. However, the threat status of only a small number has been evaluated compared with key animal groups, rendering the magnitude and nature of the risks plants face unclear. Here we report the results of a global species assessment for the largest plant taxon evaluated to date under the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List Categories and Criteria, the iconic Cactaceae (cacti). We show that cacti are among the most threatened taxonomic groups assessed to date, with 31% of the 1,478 evaluated species threatened, demonstrating the high anthropogenic pressures on biodiversity in arid lands. The distribution of threatened species and the predominant threatening processes and drivers are different to those described for other taxa. The most significant threat processes comprise land conversion to agriculture and aquaculture, collection as biological resources, and residential and commercial development. The dominant drivers of extinction risk are the unscrupulous collection of live plants and seeds for horticultural trade and private ornamental collections, smallholder livestock ranching and smallholder annual agriculture. Our findings demonstrate that global species assessments are readily achievable for major groups of plants with relatively moderate resources, and highlight different conservation priorities and actions to those derived from species assessments of key animal groups.

Abstract
Assessing temporal changes in species extinction risk is necessary for measuring conservation success or failure and for directing conservation resources toward species or regions that would benefit most. Yet, there is no long-term picture of genuine change that allows one to associate species extinction risk trends with drivers of change or conservation actions. Through a review of 40 years of IUCN-related literature sources on species conservation status (e.g., action plans, red-data books), we assigned retrospective red-list categories to the world's carnivores and ungulates (2 groups with relatively long generation times) to examine how their extinction risk has changed since the 1970s. We then aggregated species' categories to calculate a global trend in their extinction risk over time. A decline in the conservation status of carnivores and ungulates was underway 40 years ago and has since accelerated. One quarter of all species (n = 498) moved one or more categories closer to extinction globally, while almost half of the species moved closer to extinction in Southeast Asia. The conservation status of some species improved (toward less threatened categories), but for each species that improved in status 8 deteriorated. The status of large-bodied species, particularly those above 100 kg (including many iconic taxa), deteriorated significantly more than small-bodied species (below 10 kg). The trends we found are likely related to geopolitical events (such as the collapse of Soviet Union), international regulations (such as CITES), shifting cultural values, and natural resource exploitation (e.g., in Southeast Asia). Retrospective assessments of global species extinction risk reduce the risk of a shifting baseline syndrome, which can affect decisions on the desirable conservation status of species. Such assessments can help conservationists identify which conservation policies and strategies are or are not helping safeguard biodiversity and thus can improve future strategies.

Abstract
Techniques for mammal research in the rainforest canopy presents a number of challenges; including difficulties accessing and maneuvering within the three-dimensional study area and thereby acquiring an adequate sample size. In addition, rainforest mammals are not evenly distributed in the canopy, resulting in stratification of species within the three dimensional environment (Grelle 2003), and all non-volant mammals are limited to the architecture of the forest.

Abstract
Large mammals are a critical component of tropical ecosystems, especially for the tropics (Terborgh 1988, Cardillo et al. 2005). Nevertheless, is not until recently that with the emergence and widespread use of non-invasive techniques such as camera-traps, that we are getting a large amount ofinformation on medium and large-size mammal assemblages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum levels of IL-16, IL-33 and the decoy receptor of IL-33, soluble ST2, are elevated in allergic rhinitis. Recent studies show that IL-16, soluble ST2 or anti-IL-33 reduce type 2 cytokines (such as IL-5) and eosinophilia in murine models of allergic asthma or allergic rhinitis respectively. OBJECTIVE In this study, we studied the release of IL-5, IL-16, IL-33 and soluble ST2 in allergic rhinitis patients after nasal allergen challenge and natural pollen exposure. METHODS The nasal lavages of 15 allergic and 14 non-allergic volunteers were collected during the pollen allergy season. In addition, six allergic volunteers underwent unilateral nasal allergen and control challenge out of season and nasal secretions and sera were collected. IL-5, IL-16, IL-33 and soluble ST2 in nasal secretions and sera were measured by electrochemiluminescent assay or ELISA, respectively. RESULTS Nasal IL-5, IL-16 and soluble ST2 levels were significantly increased in seasonally pollen exposed allergic volunteers compared to control subjects (P < 0.001, P = 0.018 and P = 0.002 respectively), whereas IL-33 remained undetectable. Nasal IL-16 showed a weak inverse correlation trend with nasal symptoms (r = -0.48, P = 0.07). Nasal soluble ST2 concentrations were inversely correlated with nasal symptoms (r = -0.61, P = 0.02) and positively correlated with IL-16 (r = 0.56, P = 0.03). Significant increases of nasal IL-5, IL-16 and ST2 but not IL-33 were observed after nasal allergen challenge. At 24 h after allergen challenge, local ST2 and IL-5 concentrations showed an inverse correlation trend (r = -0.83, P = 0.04). Serum levels of IL-5, IL-16 and soluble ST2 rose in at least five of six volunteers tested at 5 or 24 h post-challenge. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The observed upregulation of soluble ST2 and IL-16 after nasal allergen challenge and during peak pollination season suggests potential regulatory roles of these cytokines in the inflammatory reaction in allergic rhinitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During neck surgery the head of the patient is located in such a position that the neck-tissue is deformed compared to the normal head-position. The consideration of this tissue deformation of the neck during head rotation is the first step to using preoperative image data for medical navigation. MATERIAL AND METHODS The tissue shift was measured and analyzed based on MRT-image data of a subject group of 5 patients. RESULTS The big vessels, lying contralateral to the rotation, demonstrated a larger shift than those vessels, lying ipsilateral. The shift was nonlinear to the head rotation and the shift of the V. jugularis interna was less pronounced than the shift of the A. carotis communis even though they both run in the same adventitia. In the cranial neck section, the movement of the tissue was larger than in the caudal neck section. CONCLUSION The knowledge about tissue shifts in different head positions should promote intraoperative, minimally invasive procedures. The expectation is that such examinations facilitate the navigation in neck surgery with online calculation of tissue shifts.

Abstract
Spontaneous rhinoliquorrhea with or without meningo-encephaloceles in the region of the sphenoid sinus occurs very infrequently. It is not uncommon that the attempt of transnasal endoscopic duraplasty in this region leads to recurrence of the CSF leak. The existence of a lateral craniopharyngeal canal can be a possible explanation for these failures.Retrospective analysis of 23 patients with rhinoliquorrhea of different pathogenesis in the region of the frontal and central skull base that were treated with transnasal, video-endoscopic surgical procedures in our department between 2006 and 2011.2 of 23 patients with proven rhinoliquorrhea following a transnasal video endoscopic duraplasty procedure showed a recurrence of the CSF leak. The computertomographic analysis with respect to the current literature indicated the presence of a craniopharyngeal canal at the lateral side of the sphenoid sinus. This canal is also known in the literature as Sternberg's canal. In contrast to the other 21 treated cases there were no planar skull base defects of different pathogenesis in these 2 cases, but a ontogenetically bony canal. The canal can reopen spontaneously or due to an external mechanical impact.The closure of this bony canal requires a modified surgical procedure such as sufficient padding of the bony canal and its sealing by a vascularized pedicle flap in contrast to the ordinary planar bony skull base defects.

Abstract
More than 90% of harlequin frog species (Atelopus spp.), endemic to the Americas, are currently threatened with extinction. We report the discovery of the only currently known breeding population of the Critically Endangered A. varius in Costa Rica. This population was located in 2008 on a private property in Las Tablas Protected Zone near San Vito, Coto Brus at 1300 m elevation. Previously, the only known remaining/remnant population of this species and genus was a single location near Manuel Antonio, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, where two individuals were documented in 2004. Subsequent searches at this location have yielded no additional sightings. Delineating the spatial limits of this population, quantifying demographics and resource use, and implementing conservation actions are necessary to ensure persistence of this population. Conducting additional surveys in this region to ascertain occurrence of additional populations is warranted.

Abstract
Baird's tapir (Tapirus bairdii) is currently endangered throughout its neotropical range with an expected population decline >50% in the next 30 years. We present the first density estimation of Baird's tapir for the Talamanca mountains of Costa Rica, and one of the first for the country. Ten stations with paired cameras were established in Valle del Silencio within Parque Internacional La Amistad (PILA). Seventy-seven tapir pictures of 15 individuals comprising 25 capture-recapture events were analyzed using mark-recapture techniques. The 100% minimum convex polygon of the sampled area was 5.7 km(2) and the effective sampled area using half mean maximum distances moved by tapirs was 7.16 km(2) . We estimated a tapir density of 2.93 individuals/km(2) which represents the highest density reported for this species. Intermountain valleys can represent unique and important habitats for large mammal species. However, the extent of isolation of this population, potentially constrained by steep slopes of the cordillera, remains unknown. Further genetic and movement studies are required to understand meta-population dynamics and connectivity between lowland and highland areas for Baird's tapir conservation in Costa Rica.

Abstract
Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare recessive DNA repair disorder that is clinically characterized by congenital malformations, progressive bone marrow failure, and increased incidence of malignancies, especially acute myeloid leukemia and squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (HNSCCs) and the anogenital regions. On a cellular level, typical features of the disorder are a high degree of genomic instability and an increased sensitivity to bi-functionally alkylating agents. So far, germ-line defects in 15 different FA genes have been identified. Some of these FA genes are also established as tumor susceptibility genes for familiar cancers.In recent years, the prevention and therapy of HNSCCs in FA patients has become more important as the percentage of patients surviving into adulthood is rising. HNSCCs appear in very young FA patients without common risk factors. Since cisplatin-based chemotherapy in combination with radiotherapy, essential parts of the standard treatment approach for sporadic HNSCCs, cannot be used in FA patients due to therapy-associated toxicities and mortalities even with reduced dosing, surgery is the most important treatment option for HNSCCs, in FA patients and requires an early and efficient detection of malignant lesions. So far, no uniform treatment protocol for the management of HNSCCs in FA patients exists. Therefore, we propose that the information on affected FA patients should be collected worldwide, practical therapeutic guidelines developed and national treatment centers established.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been shown that a third hand is useful for holding the endoscope during endoscopic surgery so that both hands of the surgeon are free for instrumentation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Experimental tests were performed with the mechatronic robotic camera holding system Soloassist on anatomical specimens in the area of the nose, nasopharynx and larynx. RESULTS An ergonomic set-up and the practical application are easily possible. The third hand enables a still and clear picture without undesired camera movement and all instruments can be controlled by the surgeon. There would appear to be some room for improvement as the working area is limited due to an additional instrument. The camera holding system shows a very high velocity for head and neck surgery. CONCLUSION Until the active holder can be used regularly in clinical practice in the field of head and neck surgery, more technical modifications have to be implemented.

Abstract
In the face of unprecedented global biodiversity loss, conservation planning must balance between refining and deepening knowledge versus acting on current information to preserve species and communities. Phylogenetic diversity (PD), a biodiversity measure that takes into account the evolutionary relationships between species, is arguably a more meaningful measure of biodiversity than species diversity, but cannot yet be applied to conservation planning for the majority of taxa for which phylogenetic trees have not yet been developed. Here, we investigate how the quality of data on the taxonomy and/or phylogeny of species affects the results of spatial conservation planning in terms of the representation of overall mammalian PD. The results show that the better the quality of the biodiversity data the better they can serve as a basis for conservation planning. However, decisions based on incomplete data are remarkably robust across different levels of degrading quality concerning the description of new species and the availability of phylogenetic information. Thus, given the level of urgency and the need for action, conservation planning can safely make use of the best available systematic data, limited as these data may be.
