The incidence of melanoma in Central Hesse, the catchment area of the Dermatological Clinic of the University of Giessen, was 11.1 per 100,000 inhabitants in 1984. The incidences in the different districts are relatively equa, varying only between 9.7 and 12.4 in 5 of 6 districts. In Central Hesse, too, the frequency of melanoma has steadily increased since 1970, the rates for 1984 being fivefold in both men and women. Apart from the real increase, this is probably due to an intensive public and professional melanoma education project and higher public awareness.

Background: Studies have described a first pass effect (FPE) where patients with successful recanalization after one pass experience better outcomes. Few studies have evaluated this in patients with large core infarctions.
Objective: To determine whether patients with large core infarcts undergoing mechanical thrombectomy in which first pass reperfusion is achieved experience improved outcomes compared with those who undergo more than one pass.

Article Synopsis
- The BETTER-CARE study is investigating a personalized follow-up care system for breast cancer patients in Germany, focusing on individual needs and risks of long-term therapy side effects.
- It is a cluster-randomized controlled trial involving 30 centers aiming to recruit 1,140 patients, with the primary goal of improving health-related quality of life.
- The pilot phase showed that the approach is feasible, and if successful, it could become a part of routine care in Germany.
