Despite available armored personal protection in troops, the incidence of abdominal wounds in modern wars is 6.6-9.0%. Of these, penetrating abdominal injuries comprise 75-80%. Thoracoabdominal injuries occupy a special place with incidence up to 88%. We present the first case of the "Koblenz algorithm" in the treatment of a patient with mine explosion wound, combined injury of the head, limbs, thoracoabdominal trauma, widespread peritonitis, small intestinal obstruction and septic shock in a military hospital. This algorithm was implemented under import substitution considering the peculiarities of abdominal adhesive process in a patient with thoracoabdominal wound. This case demonstrates the advantage of this algorithm for patients with severe combined wounds of the chest and abdomen complicated by diffuse purulent peritonitis. Clinical status of these patients does not allow not only open laparostomy, but also "classical" redo laparotomies.

Combining a Standardized Growth Class Assessment, UAV Sensor Data, GIS Processing, and Machine Learning Classification to Derive a Correlation with the Vigour and Canopy Volume of Grapevines.

Assessing vines' vigour is essential for vineyard management and automatization of viticulture machines, including shaking adjustments of berry harvesters during grape harvest or leaf pruning applications. To address these problems, based on a standardized growth class assessment, labeled ground truth data of precisely located grapevines were predicted with specifically selected Machine Learning (ML) classifiers (Random Forest Classifier (RFC), Support Vector Machines (SVM)), utilizing multispectral UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) sensor data. The input features for ML model training comprise spectral, structural, and texture feature types generated from multispectral orthomosaics (spectral features), Digital Terrain and Surface Models (DTM/DSM- structural features), and Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) calculations (texture features).

Background/objectives: Antimicrobial resistance is a global threat to safe health care, and a reduction in antibiotic consumption seems to be an appropriate preventive measure. In Germany, the reporting of hospital antibiotics consumption to an independent institution is only voluntary. Although a high level of willingness to improve can be assumed in the case of participation, the median consumptions of reporting hospitals change only slightly.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze microvascular reconstruction in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS) in Europe.
Methods: Based on previous studies, a dynamic online questionnaire was developed and subjected to internal and external evaluation. The questionnaire comprised multiple-choice, rating, and open-ended questions, addressing general and specific aspects and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on microvascular reconstruction in OMFS in Europe.
