[Necrosis of the semilunar bone--what is possible in ambulatory operations?].

The author has been operating on cases of lunatum necrose using all usual operating methods, excluding attached vessel pisiforme transfer, increasingly over the past 9 years without an overnight stay in hospital being necessary for patients. Depending on the quality of the structure, we have not experienced any disadvantages in comparison to hospitalised patients. Regarding funding: The costs of these operations are covered and are justifiable in combination with additional hand operations within the outpatients department.

[Anxiety in the context of cognitive semantic processes].

In this experiment anxiety is understood as an indicator for specific structures in the semantic memory. In order to prove this hypothesis a number of positive (12) and negative (11) events were associated. Furthermore the events have been classified the scale "anxious--non anxious". In the experiment 69 subjects took part. Previously the subjects completed the STAI-Trait-part; these data were used to divide the subjects into groups of high (HA) and low (LA) anxious persons (median of the sample). Those associations were analysed in a qualitative and quantitative way. ANOVAS were calculated as well as overlap coefficients and Type-Token-Ratios. HA have more negative associations. LA produce more positive associations. LA show a significantly higher overlap coefficient with positive events, respectively a smaller TTR. The results are discussed in context with psycholinguistic theories.
