Abstract
Facial nerve paralysis or Bell's palsy have been suggested as possible consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infections, as well as possible side effects of COVID-19 vaccinations. Google Trends data have been used to evaluate worldwide levels of public awareness for these topics for pre- and post-pandemic years. The results demonstrate a relatively low public interest in facial nerve paralysis in comparison to other more common COVID-19 related topics. Some peaks of interest in Bell's palsy can most likely be explained as triggered by the media. Therefore, Google Trends has shown public's relatively low awareness of this rare neurological phenomenon during the pandemic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We analyzed the association between substance use (SU) and condomless sex (CS) among HIV-negative adults reporting heterosexual sex in the Seek, Test, Treat, and Retain (STTR) consortium. We describe the impact of SU as well as person/partner and context-related factors on CS, identifying combinations of factors that indicate the highest likelihood of CS. METHODS We analyzed data from four US-based STTR studies to examine the effect of SU on CS using two SU exposures: 1) recent SU (within 3 months) and 2) SU before/during sex. Behavioral data were collected via 1:1 or self-administered computerized interviews. Adjusted individual-study, multivariable relative risk regression was used to examine the relationship between CS and SU. We also examined interactions with type of sex and partner HIV status. Pooled effect estimates were calculated using traditional fixed-effects meta-analysis. We analyzed data for recent SU (n = 6781; 82% men, median age = 33 years) and SU before/during sex (n = 2915; 69% men, median age = 40 years). RESULTS For both exposure classifications, any SU other than cannabis increased the likelihood of CS relative to non-SU (8-16%, p-values< 0.001). In the recent SU group, however, polysubstance use did not increase the likelihood of CS compared to single-substance use. Cannabis use did not increase the likelihood of CS, regardless of frequency of use. Type of sex was associated with CS; those reporting vaginal and anal sex had a higher likelihood of CS compared to vaginal sex only for both exposure classifications (18-21%, p < 0.001). Recent SU increased likelihood of CS among those reporting vaginal sex only (9-10%, p < 0.001); results were similar for those reporting vaginal and anal sex (5-8%, p < 0.01). SU before/during sex increased the likelihood of CS among those reporting vaginal sex only (20%; p < 0.001) and among those reporting vaginal and anal sex (7%; p = 0.002). Single- and poly-SU before/during sex increased the likelihood of CS for those with exclusively HIV-negative partners (7-8%, p ≤ 0.02), and for those reporting HIV-negative and HIV-status unknown partners (9-13%, p ≤ 0.03). CONCLUSION Except for cannabis, any SU increased the likelihood of CS. CS was associated with having perceived HIV-negative partners and with having had both anal/vaginal sex.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Genetics contribute to variability in individual response to weight-loss interventions. The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of a commercially available exercise and weight-loss program and whether alignment of diet to genotype related to lipid metabolism promotes greater success. DESIGN Sedentary women with obesity (n = 63) had genotype (FABP2rs1799883, PPARG2rs1801282, ADRB3rs4994C3, ADRB2rs1042713, rs1042714) determined using a direct-to-consumer genetic screening kit purported to promote greater weight-loss success through dietary recommendations based on these genes. Participants were randomly assigned to follow a moderate carbohydrate (MC) or lower carbohydrate (LC) hypo-energetic diet that aligned (A) or did not align (NA) with genotype for 24 weeks while participating in a resistance training and walking program. Data were analysed by general linear model repeated measures adjusted for baseline variables and are presented as mean (95% confidence interval) changes from baseline. RESULTS Participants in the LC group experienced greater improvements (p = 0.051, ηp 2 = 0.025) in per cent changes in body composition (weight: MC -3.32 [-1.4, -5.2], LC -5.82 [-4.1, -7.6]; fat mass: MC -7.25 [-3.2, -11.2], LC -10.93 [-7.3, -14.5]; fat-free mass: MC -0.32 [1.4, -2.0], LC -1.48 [0.7, -3.0]; and body fat percentage: MC -4.19 [-1.6, -6.8], LC -5.60 [-3.3, -7.9] %). No significant differences were observed between genotype groups (weight: A -5.00 [-3.3, -6.7], NA -4.14 [-2.2, -6.1]; fat mass: A -10.15 [-7.0, -13.6], NA -8.02 [-4.0, -12.0]; fat-free mass: A -1.23 [0.3, -2.8], NA -0.56 [1.12, -2.3]; and body fat: A -5.28 [-3.0, -7.6], NA -4.51 [-1.9, -7.1] %). CONCLUSIONS Adherence to this exercise and weight-loss program promoted improvements in body composition and health outcomes. While individuals following the LC diet experienced greater benefits, alignment of these diets to this genetic profile did not promote greater health outcomes.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Gegenstand und Ziel: Clostridium perfringens Typ A wird häufig in Verbindung mit Durchfällen von Saugferkeln isoliert. Die Bedeutung des Alpha-(α-) und Beta(β)2-Toxins für die Pathogenese der Erkrankung ist nicht abschließend geklärt. Zur Bekämpfung der Erkrankung wurden in der Vergangenheit insbesondere stallspezifische Impfstoffe eingesetzt. Ziel der Untersuchungen war die Typisierung und quantitative Bestimmung des α- und β2-Toxins von C.-perfringens-Stämmen, die im Rahmen der Herstellung bestandsspezifischer Impfstoffe isoliert wurden. Mithilfe eines Intoxikationsmodells wurde weiterhin die Wirksamkeit eines kommerziell erhältlichen Impfstoffs gegen den C.-perfringens-Typ-A-assoziierten Durchfall der Saugferkel geprüft. Material und Methoden: Im ersten Teil der Untersuchungen wurden 1434 C.-perfringens-Stämme, die von an Durchfall erkrankten Ferkeln stammten, mithilfe einer Multiplex-PCR typisiert. Gleichzeitig wurde das α- und β2-Toxin-Bildungsvermögen der Stämme mittels ELISA-Tests untersucht. Zur Prüfung der α- und β2-toxoidhaltigen C.-perfringens-Typ-A-Vakzine für Schweine (Clostriporc A, IDT Biologika GmbH) wurden im zweiten Teil der Untersuchungen 18 Jungsauen im letzten Drittel der Trächtigkeit zweimal im Abstand von 3 Wochen immunisiert. Ergebnisse: 87,9% der Stämme gehörten zur Toxovar A (cpa, cpb2), 6,3% zur Toxovar A (cpa) und 5,8% zur Toxovar C (cpa, cpb, cpb2). Bei der quantitativen Untersuchung des Toxinbildungsvermögens der C.-perfringens-Typ-A-Stämme (cpa, cpb2) zeichneten sich Stämme, die geringe oder mittlere Gehalte des α-Toxins bildeten, häufig durch eine starke Expression des β2-Toxins aus. Die geimpften Sauen bildeten Antikörper gegen das α- und β2-Toxin, die über das Kolostrum auf die Nachzucht übertragen wurden und neugeborene Ferkel signifikant (p < 0,05) vor einer Intoxikation mit einem α- und β2-toxinhaltigen Überstand eines heterologen C.-perfringens-Typ-A-Stammes schützten. Schlussfolgerung und klinische Relevanz: Die Ergebnisse unterstreichen die Bedeutung von α- und β2-toxinbildenden C.-perfringens-Typ-A-Stämmen im Durchfallgeschehen der Saugferkel. Im Intoxikationsmodell ließ sich eine deutliche Schutzwirkung der eingesetzten Vakzine vor dem α- und β2-Toxin nachweisen.

Abstract
Aim: 20 years after establishment of the National Breastfeeding Committee, the present work, based on published data on breastfeeding, is aimed at providing insight into the development of breastfeeding behaviour in Germany. Methods: To identify relevant publications, a comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and Web of Science using the search terms "breast feeding" or "breastfeeding" in combination with "Germany". The publication period was limited to the period 1995-2014. Results: A total of 35 studies with data on breastfeeding for the birth cohorts of 1990-2012 were identified. Most of the data had been collected in regional or local surveys, often retrospectively. About 60% of the studies had been conducted with the primary aim of collecting data on breastfeeding or infant nutrition. Over the past 2 decades, breastfeeding rates were always relatively high at the beginning (72-97%). However, they declined significantly within the first 2 months, and by the age of 6 months, only about 50% of infants were still breastfed. Conclusion: Breastfeeding support and early assistance should be offered to a greater extent in order to achieve sustainable improvement of breastfeeding frequency and duration in Germany. Regarding the quality of data collected on breastfeeding, it seems crucial to implement standardised approaches to monitor breastfeeding in Germany.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The volume of search engine queries about disease-relevant items reflects public interest and correlates with disease prevalence as proven by the example of flu (influenza). Other influences include media attention or holidays. STUDY GOAL The present work investigates if the seasonality of prevalence or symptom severity of dermatoses correlates with search engine query data. METHODS The relative weekly volume of dermatological relevant search terms was assessed by the online tool Google Trends for the years 2009-2013. For each item, the degree of seasonality was calculated via frequency analysis and a geometric approach. RESULTS Many dermatoses show a marked seasonality, reflected by search engine query volumes. Unexpected seasonal variations of these queries suggest a previously unknown variability of the respective disease prevalence. Furthermore, using the example of allergic rhinitis, a close correlation of search engine query data with actual pollen count can be demonstrated. DISCUSSION In many cases, search engine query data are appropriate to estimate seasonal variability in prevalence of common dermatoses. This finding may be useful for real-time analysis and formation of hypotheses concerning pathogenetic or symptom aggravating mechanisms and may thus contribute to improvement of diagnostics and prevention of skin diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe obesity due to hypothalamic involvement has major impact on prognosis in long-term survivors of childhood craniopharyngioma. The long-term effects of rehabilitation efforts on weight development and obesity in these patients are not analyzed up to now. PATIENTS AND METHODS 108 patients with childhood craniopharyngioma recruited in HIT Endo before 2001 were included in the study. Long-term weight development (BMI SDS after >10 yrs follow-up) was analyzed in regard to rehabilitation, which was performed in 31 of 108 (29%) patients (one rehabilitation in 4 patients (13%), more than one in 21 patients (68%), 6 patients unknown) in 13 German rehabilitation -clinics. RESULTS 84% of patients underwent rehabilitation in order to reduce hypothalamic obesity (BMI>+ 2 SD), whereas 12% of patients were normal weight. Childhood craniopharyngioma pa-tients with rehabilitation presented with higher BMI at diagnosis (median BMI: +1.32 SD; range: -1.08 to + 7.00 SD) and at last evaluation (median BMI: +4.93 SD; range: -0.20 to + 13.13 SD) when compared with patients without rehabilitation (median BMI at diagnosis: +0.24 SD; range: -2.67 to + 6.98 SD; BMI at evaluation: +2.09 SD; range: -1.48 to + 10.23 SD). A long-term weight reducing effect of rehabilitation was no detectable regardless of degree of obesity, frequency of rehabilitation, and hospital of rehabilitation. CONCLUSION Treatment options for hypothalamic obesity in terms of rehabilitation are limited. Accordingly, strategies for prevention of hypothalamic lesions and psychosocial effects of rehabilitation are currently in focus for improvement of prognosis in childhood craniopharyngioma patients.

Abstract
There is increased interest in the in vivo comet assay in rodents as a follow-up approach for determining the biological relevance of chemicals that are genotoxic in in vitro assays. This is partly because, unlike other assays, DNA damage can be assessed in this assay in virtually any tissue. Since background levels of DNA damage can vary with the species, tissue, and cell processing method, a robust historical control database covering multiple tissues is essential. We describe extensive vehicle and positive control data for multiple tissues from rats and mice. In addition, we report historical data from control and genotoxin-treated human blood. Technical issues impacting comet results are described, including the method of cell preparation and freezing. Cell preparation by scraping (stomach and other GI tract organs) resulted in higher % tail DNA than mincing (liver, spleen, kidney etc) or direct collection (blood or bone marrow). Treatment with the positive control genotoxicant, ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) in rats and methyl methanesulfonate in mice, resulted in statistically significant increases in % tail DNA. Background DNA damage was not markedly increased when cell suspensions were stored frozen prior to preparing slides, and the outcome of the assay was unchanged (EMS was always positive). In conclusion, historical data from our laboratory for the in vivo comet assay for multiple tissues from rats and mice, as well as human blood show very good reproducibility. These data and recommendations provided are aimed at contributing to the design and proper interpretation of results from comet assays.

Abstract
The aim of tis report is to describe the effects of a dual-channel functional electrical stimulation (FES) system applied daily as an orthotic device to the dorsiflexors and hamstrings muscles in a subject with chronic hemiparesis. Prior to the application of FES, the patient's gait was characterized by a footdrop and knee hyperextension during stance. measurements of gait performance were collected before FES application, after a conditioning period of six weeks, and following ten months of daily use. Outcomes included lower limb kinematics and temporal gait measures. The kinematic assessments indicated significant benefits for gait with the dorsiflexors and hamstrings FES, as compared to no stimulation and peroneal FES alone. In addition ot improved ankle control, knee hyperextension was reduced during stance, and the self-selected comfortable gait velocity increased following ten months of daily use. The results of this report suggest that dual-channel FES for the dorsiflexors and hamstrings muscles may affect ankle and knee control beyond that witch can be attributed to peroneal stimulation alone. The positive effects observed in this case study point to the potential of dual-channel FES as a viable treatment options in the rehabilitation of patients with similar impairments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the usefulness of chromosome microarrays as a second-tier test in prenatal genetic testing. METHODS We prospectively analyzed 75 high-risk pregnancies undergoing invasive prenatal genetic testing in which the karyotype either was normal or had findings other than a common non-mosaic autosomal aneuploidy. RESULTS Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) was performed successfully in all cases. Pathological copy-number variations (CNVs) explaining the phenotypes were found in 11 cases (14.7%). Four cases were detected with an unbalanced translocation. In three of these cases, subsequent genetic analysis demonstrated that a parent was an unknown carrier of a balanced translocation. Among the 67 cases with normal karyo-types, submicroscopic rearrangements with pathological significance were detected in five (7.5%) and CNVs of unclear significance were detected in one (1.5%). CMA was able to discriminate correctly between true mosaicism and confined or pseudomosaicism in all six mosaic cases. CONCLUSION CMA is a valuable second-tier test in high-risk pregnancies for which identification or further delineation of genetic aberrations is important. Its higher resolution results in a higher detection rate of aberrant cases, with a clear clinical benefit for estimation of risk of recurrence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clostridium (C.) perfringens type A is often associated with diarrhoea in suckling piglets. The impact of the alpha (α) and beta (β)2 toxins on the pathogenesis of the disease has not been conclusively answered. Previously, autologous vaccines were used to control this disease. The aim of our investigation was the classification of C. perfringens strains and the quantitative determination of the α and β2 toxins during the production of autologous vaccines. The efficacy of a commercial vaccine against the C. perfringens type A associated diarrhoea was tested using an animal intoxication model. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 1,434 C. perfringens strains from piglets with diarrhoea were classified using a multiplex PCR in the first part of the examination. In parallel, the α and β2 toxin content was determined quantitatively using ELISA tests. In the second part of the study 18 gilts were vaccinated twice in the last third of gestation to evaluate the α and β2 toxoid containing C.perfringens type A vaccine (Clostriporc A, IDT Biologika GmbH). RESULTS Of the C. perfringens strains which were found, 87.9% were type A ( cpa , cpb2 ), 6.3% type A ( cpa ), and 5.8% type C ( cpa , cpb , cpb2 ). Low to middle a toxin-producing strains often strongly expressed the β2 toxin. The vaccination led to the production of antibodies against the α and β2 toxins, which were transferred to the offspring by colostrum. Piglets were significantly protected (p<0.05) by the antibodies after having been challenged with an α and β2-containing supernatant of a heterologous C. perfringens type A strain. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE These results underline the importance of α and β2 toxin producing C.perfringens type A strains in diarrhoea in suckling piglets. Using the intoxication model, this vaccine showed significant protective effects against the α and β2 toxins.

Abstract
There are multiple treatment options for patients with chronic lymphedema, and one successful approach is lymph vessel transplantation. As quality of life assessments are frequently not utilized in standard treatment regimes, we investigated the change in quality of life for patients with chronic lymphedema (total = 212) who had undergone lymphatic vessel transplantation and conservative therapy for at least 6 months prior to operation. Quality of life was assessed by a modified standard questionnaire examining the physiological and psychological status of the patients. Results document a significant improvement in quality of life and underscore success of autologous lymphatic vessel transplantation as a therapy for lymphedema.

Abstract
COPII-coated vesicles carry proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex. This vesicular transport can be reconstituted by using three cytosolic components containing five proteins: the small GTPase Sar1p, the Sec23p/24p complex, and the Sec13p/Sec31p complex. We have used a combination of biochemistry and electron microscopy to investigate the molecular organization and structure of Sec23p/24p and Sec13p/31p complexes. The three-dimensional reconstruction of Sec23p/24p reveals that it has a bone-shaped structure, (17 nm in length), composed of two similar globular domains, one corresponding to Sec23p and the other to Sec24p. Sec13p/31p is a heterotetramer composed of two copies of Sec13p and two copies of Sec31p. It has an elongated shape, is 28-30 nm in length, and contains five consecutive globular domains linked by relatively flexible joints. Putting together the architecture of these Sec complexes with the interactions between their subunits and the appearance of the coat in COPII-coated vesicles, we present a model for COPII coat organization.

Abstract
Hybrid swine (Landrace x Pietrain) aged 3-4 weeks were immunized twice at an interval of 3 weeks solely by the oral route and by the oral/parenteral route to evaluate the efficacy of a live S. Typhimurium vaccine. In each experiment a control group was run without vaccination. The animals were challenged at the age of 8-10 weeks by oral test infection with a labelled S. Typhimurium DT 104 strain. An ELISA was used to establish the presence of antibodies to S. Typhimurium in serum samples, coupled with clinical investigation. The presence of the challenge strain in the ileal and caecal mucosa and in the ileocolic lymph nodes was investigated quantitatively using the Koch plating method to determine the degree of colonization of those organs at the time of slaughter. The clinical course of disease was used to assess the success of vaccination. However, it was not possible to trigger, in a reproducible manner, clinical signs of disease in unvaccinated animals through infection. The vaccinated animals had a significantly lower (p < 0.05) colonization of the ileal and caecal mucosa than the unvaccinated animals. This was also seen to a lesser degree for the ileocolic lymph nodes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Administration of glucose 5% infusion is regularly used in obstetrics. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of glucose as compared to xylose and electrolyte solutions on parameters of maternal and fetal glucose and bilirubin metabolism during labour and after delivery. PATIENTS AND METHODS 53 pregnant women (> or = 37 weeks of gestation, uncomplicated pregnancies) were randomised by entering the delivery ward. Under labour either glucose 5%, xylose 5% or electrolyte infusions were administered. Maternal serum glucose, serum osmolarity, insulin and glucagon were analysed before administration and 20 minutes after delivery. In the newborn blood osmolarity and serum glucose levels were analysed in the umbilical cord directly after birth and in capillary blood samplings 2 hours after birth. RESULTS Maternal blood glucose levels 20 min. post partum were significantly different (p < 0.05). Maternal insulin and glucagon concentrations 20 min. pp showed similar trends with glucose levels but were not significantly different. Glucose levels in the umbilical cord were significantly higher in the glucose than in the electrolyte group, but not higher than in the Xylit group. In contrast, the glucose-levels in the newborns after 2 h were significantly higher in the glucose group compared with both other groups. No significant differences were observed in bilirubin levels. Osmolarity in the umbilical cord between groups differed significantly. CONCLUSIONS AND DISCUSSION In conclusion, the administration of different solutions showed a distinct influence on the maternal and neonatal glucose metabolism. A significant impact on the bilirubin levels could not be shown in this study.
