Corrective shoe insoles are prescribed for a range of foot deformities and are typically designed based on a subjective assessment limiting personalization and potentially leading to sub optimal treatment outcomes. The incorporation of techniques in the design and customization of insoles may improve personalized correction and hence insole efficiency. We developed an workflow for insole design and customization using a combination of measured motion capture, inverse musculoskeletal modelling as well as forward simulation approaches to predict the kinematic response to specific insole designs.

Functional constipation in the pediatric population is a prevalent issue that is usually well managed. However, in rare cases, conservative treatment fails, and surgical intervention is necessary. This retrospective cohort study aimed to describe and compare different perioperative analgesic techniques in children undergoing major abdominal surgery for intractable constipation.

Background: To evaluate the use of intercalary iliac crest bone graft in the treatment of clavicle nonunion with a large segmental bone defect (3-6 cm).

Methods: This retrospective study evaluated patients with large segmental bone defects (3-6 cm) after clavicle nonunion, treated with open reposition internal fixation and iliac crest bone graft between February 2003 and March 2021. At follow-up the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire was administered.

We herein report a modular strategy, which enables Rh(III)-catalyzed diastereoselective 3,4-amino oxygenation and diamination of 1,3-dienes using different and -nucleophiles in combination with readily available 3-substituted 1,4,2-dioxazolones (78 examples, 37-91% yield). Previous attempts to functionalize the internal double bond rested on the use of plain alcoholic solvents as nucleophilic coupling partners thus dramatically limiting the scope of this transformation. We have now identified hexafluoroisopropanol as a non-nucleophilic solvent which allows the use of diverse nucleophiles and greatly expands the scope, including an unprecedented amino hydroxylation to selectively install valuable, unprotected β-amino alcohols across 1,3-dienes.

Background: Germany has seen rapid development in the digitization of medicine in recent years. Especially, the CO-VID-19 pandemic has dramatically accelerated this process. Nevertheless, it is accompanied by legal innovations that promote the application of digital tools as well as create respective remuneration options.
