[The influence of occupational activity on diseases of the musculoskeletal system of the upper extremity].

Introduction: Diseases of the musculoskeletal system of the upper extremity are the reason for increasing sickness-related absenteeism among the working population.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of occupational dependence on the development of musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremities and to present health-related risks in addition to occupation-specific factors.

Materials And Methods: We included 1070 patients who underwent surgical rotator cuff (RC) reconstruction for an RC lesion between 2016 and 2019.

Mass spectrometric profiling of cord blood serum proteomes to distinguish infants with intrauterine growth restriction from those who are small for gestational age and from control individuals.

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a multifactorial condition in that the fetus does not reach its genetically given growth potential. Besides its contribution to perinatal mortality, it is a risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases later in life. The diagnosis is based on antenatal sonography, which allows differentiating between IUGR and fetuses that are small by constitution (small for gestational age [SGA]).
