[The ball deformation method, a new method in oryhopedics for the quantitative threedimensional force flow determination in bone models].

Abstract

The long term results of 1135 followed up patients after coxarthrosis-operations showed, besides being very effective, typical complications and problems. The bone bearing strength and strain has to be known exactly. In the past there was no method known for quantitative 3dimensional measurement of strength flow in case of biomechanical alteration by operations. The ball deformation system is introduced which was tested on bone models.

Interleukin-18 genetics and inflammatory disease susceptibility.

IL18 was mapped to 11q22.2-22.3 in 1998. Owing to interleukin (IL)-18's important and novel role in immunomodulation, the gene itself has been subject to scrutiny, with the aim of discovering variants that may impact on disease susceptibility and/or progression. Despite being sequenced numerous times in different populations, no non-synonymous variants have been found. However, a number of polymorphisms within the proximal promoter have been verified that may interfere with transcription-factor-binding sites. Much of the subsequent association analyses have centred on these variants, but have yielded no consistent results, despite numerous different study populations being genotyped. IL18 has recently been resequenced in its entirety, enabling the tagging-single-nucleotide polymorphism (tSNP) methodology to be adopted. This approach has yielded interesting results, with genetic variation being shown to affect protein levels, and risk. This review aims to compile and reflect on the association data of interest published to date, with a focus on the diseases related to aberrant inflammatory control.
