In the past two decades much has been published on whiplash injury, yet both the confusion regarding the condition, and the medicolegal discussion about it have increased. In this paper, functional imaging research results are summarized using MRIcroGL3D visualization software and assembled in an image comprising regions of cerebral activation and deactivation.
Routine nuclear cardiology examinations indicate heart rate, cardiac rhythm, the height of cardiac pulse and respiration rhythm. It would be of interest to study whether these data, especially if the same tests are repeated, can indicate patients’ well being in the future and perhaps patients’ life span, other factors being equal. Related old theories and suggestions are mentioned. Furthermore, some drugs like I-f channel antagonists and stress tests testing cardiac reserves could support such a study.
eLetter zum Artikel "The Hannes hand prosthesis replicates the key biological properties of the human hand" von Matteo Laffranchi et al., veröffentlicht in Science Robotics, Vol. 5, Issue 46, eabb0467 (doi.org/10.1126/scirobotics.abb0467)
Wir haben die erste „Eiserne Hand“ des Götz von Berlichingen mit 3D-Computer-Aided Design rekonstruiert und über einen Multimaterial-3D-Drucker ausgedruckt. Dabei ließ sich feststellen, dass die 500 Jahre alte Technik keinesfalls veraltet ist: Das Innenleben der „Eisernen Hand“ ist ausgefeilter als bisher angenommen. Sie könnte sogar spannende Impulse für die Entwicklung neuer künstlicher Handprothesen liefern.
"Ad fontes!"
Francesco Petrarca (1301–1374)
In the beginning, there was an idea: the reconstruction of the first "Iron Hand" of the Franconian imperial knight Götz von Berlichingen (1480–1562). We found that with this historical prosthesis, simple actions for daily use, such as holding a wine glass, a mobile phone, a bicycle handlebar grip, a horse’s reins, or some grapes, are possible without effort. Controlling this passive artificial hand, however, is based on the help of a healthy second hand.
In this paper pathophysiological interrelated deactivation/activation phenomena are set out in the example of whiplash injury. These phenomena could have been underestimated in previous positron emission tomography studies as their focus was on hypoperfusion rather than hyperperfusion. In addition, statistical parametric mapping analysis of cerebral studies is normally not fine-tuned to special interesting areas rather than to obvious clusters of difference.
