For 48 years of his life, Dr. Gustav Wilhelm Münter was a diligent, skillful, reliable and indispensable assistant of the Meckel Collections. He was a loyal worker under famous superiors as Johann Friedrich Meckel the Younger (1781-1833), Eduard d'Alton (1803-1854) and Alfred Wilhelm Volkmann (1801-1877). Münter's aim was to get scientific acknowledgement and the position of a "Prosector". But he reached none of it. However, A. W. Volkmann, who often criticized Münter's work, was obligated to say: "It is true, that a very large part of the Meckel Collections had been prepared and put up by him." Today the Anatomical Collections of Halle include a large number of very nice preparations produced by Münter.

Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) exhibits a high frequency of neural invasion (NI). Schwann cells (SCs) have been shown to be reprogrammed to facilitate cancer cell migration and invasion into nerves. Since extracellular vesicles (EVs) affect the tumour microenvironment and promote metastasis, the present study analysed the involvement of EVs from pancreatic cancer cells and their microenvironment in altering SC phenotype as part of the early events in the process of NI.

Background: The introduction of large language models (LLMs) into clinical practice promises to improve patient education and empowerment, thereby personalizing medical care and broadening access to medical knowledge. Despite the popularity of LLMs, there is a significant gap in systematized information on their use in patient care. Therefore, this systematic review aims to synthesize current applications and limitations of LLMs in patient care.

The rapid development of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and robot-assisted surgery (RAS) requires standardized training to ensure high-quality patient care. In Germany, there is currently a lack of a standardized curriculum that teaches these specialized skills. The aim of this study is to find a consensus for the development of a nationwide curriculum for MIS and RAS with the subsequent implementation of the consented content.

Background: Age-appropriate speech development is a primary aim of the rehabilitation of children treated with cochlear implants (CI). Various assessment tools are available, including the speech development test for 2‑year-olds (SETK-2). All tests are normalized to normal-hearing children; additionally, results are evaluated according to age and the duration of CI (hearing age).

Article Synopsis
- Today's operating rooms are increasingly complex due to the integration of multiple information sources and applications.
- Although manufacturers are making progress, achieving fully integrated operating rooms is still a work in progress.
- Emerging projects show promise, but they currently lack a scalable networking infrastructure, which could be addressed by advancements anticipated with the upcoming 6G standard.
