Published: February 2014

Background And Objective: Type 2 diabetes and depression often appear together. Although health behaviour and risk factors partially explain this association, other potential mechanisms have yet to be elucidated.

Methods: Explorative literature research for reviews on the topic in PubMed. Additional key-word guided research for studies in PubMed and Cochrane Library employing the keywords "diabetes" AND "depression" in combination with identified relevant single aspects (MeSH-terms) for certain neuroendocrine alterations, neuropathological und neurobiochemestric changes as well as the role of antidepressants.

Results: There are no satisfying explanatory models for the complex interaction of both diseases concerning behavioural factors and pathophysiological changes. Currently there are only many single aspects of shared or interacting pathophysiology or behaviour conspicuity.

Conclusion: The objective of this review is to summarize these aspects and their contributions to the interacting pathophysiology of the two diseases.

The demographic history of a population, and the distribution of fitness effects (DFE) of newly arising mutations in functional genomic regions, are fundamental factors dictating both genetic variation and evolutionary trajectories. Although both demographic and DFE inference has been performed extensively in humans, these approaches have generally either been limited to simple demographic models involving a single population, or, where a complex population history has been inferred, without accounting for the potentially confounding effects of selection at linked sites. Taking advantage of the coding-sparse nature of the genome, we propose a 2-step approach in which coalescent simulations are first used to infer a complex multi-population demographic model, utilizing large non-functional regions that are likely free from the effects of background selection.

Novel index for the evaluation of wound healing following erupted tooth extraction.

Background: Understanding healing of the alveolar process is crucial for immediate implant, alveolar ridge preservation and guided bone regeneration procedures, and to evaluate it several different scales have been proposed; however, all have different characteristics and seem to miss a standardization allowing for an objective and dichotomous evaluation of the different aspects of wound healing. The objective of the present study is to propose and apply, in real clinical scenarios, a novel index for the objective evaluation of wound healing following erupted tooth extraction.

Methods: Healthy patients in need of a single tooth extraction were enrolled and re-examined at 7, 14 and 21 days after the extraction using the novel index proposed.

Unlabelled: Coronaviruses have large, positive-sense single-stranded RNA genomes that challenge conventional strategies for mutagenesis. Yeast genetics has been used to manipulate large viral genomes, including those of herpesviruses and coronaviruses. This method, known as transformation-associated recombination (TAR), involves assembling complete viral genomes from dsDNA copies of viral genome fragments via homologous recombination in .

Cannulated screws have significant advantages, including ease of insertion and increased accuracy, during fracture fixation. Unraveling of screw threads is an uncommon complication related to cannulated screws. This single-institution case series aims to highlight four cases of unraveling of cannulated screw threads during the fixation of medial epicondyle humerus fractures in adolescents.

Total nasal reconstruction represents a complex challenge, requiring restoration of all three anatomical planes while preserving respiratory function. This procedure has significant therapeutic, aesthetic, social and professional implications for patients. We share our academic experience of reconstruction using a folded microanastomosed radial forearm flap (FRFF) combined with a paramedian forehead flap, using the technique of F.
