However, teaching qualifications of German university hospital physicians have not been studied in great detail. In January 2009, medical students as well as physicians involved in medical teaching at Gottingen Medical School, Germany, were invited to complete an online survey addressing their views on clinical teachers' educational skills. In addition, physicians' motivation to engage in pedagogical training was assessed. During a 12-day period, 359 students and 126 physicians involved in undergraduate medical education completed the survey. The latter did not feel well prepared for their teaching activities. At the same time, they expressed the willingness to improve their teaching skills. Students felt that, across all instructional methods, teachers would benefit from teacher training programs. In order to improve undergraduate education for future physicians, politicians and local representatives alike must set the scene for the implementation of faculty development measures in German medical schools."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00063-009-1180-x"],["dc.identifier.isi","000271851200002"],["dc.identifier.pmid","19916073"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/56090"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Urban & Vogel"],["dc.relation.conference","115th Annual Meeting of the Deutschen-Gesellschaft-fur-Innere-Medizin"],["dc.relation.eventlocation","Wiesbaden, GERMANY"],["dc.relation.issn","0723-5003"],["dc.title","A Contribution to the Needs Assessment of Faculty Development Measures in Medical Schools"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

DRs mediate not only cell death signals, but also proinflammatory responses and cell proliferation. Identification of regulatory proteins that control the switch between apoptotic and alternative DR signaling opens new therapeutic opportunities. Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2 (Faim2) is an evolutionary conserved, neuron-specific inhibitor of Fas/CD95-mediated apoptosis. To investigate its role during development and in disease models, we generated Faim2-deficient mice. The ubiquitous null mutation displayed a viable and fertile phenotype without overt deficiencies. However, lack of Faim2 caused an increase in susceptibility to combined oxygen-glucose deprivation in primary neurons in vitro as well as in caspase-associated cell death, stroke volume, and neurological impairment after cerebral ischemia in vivo. These processes were rescued by lentiviral Faim2 gene transfer. In summary, we provide evidence that Faim2 is a novel neuroprotective molecule in the context of cerebral ischemia."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2188-10.2011"],["dc.identifier.isi","000285915100026"],["dc.identifier.pmid","21209208"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/24077"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Soc Neuroscience"],["dc.relation.issn","0270-6474"],["dc.title","Fas/CD95 Regulatory Protein Faim2 Is Neuroprotective after Transient Brain Ischemia"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

This study investigated (i) the rate of HF during the pre-hospital management of patients with multiple injuries and (ii) the effects of pre-hospital tranexamic acid (TxA) administration on the coagulation system. Methods: From 27 trauma patients with pre-hospital an estimated injury severity score (ISS) >= 16 points blood was obtained at the scene and on admission to the emergency department (ED). All patients received 1 g of TxA after the first blood sample was taken. Rotational thrombelastometry (ROTEM) was performed for both blood samples, and the results were compared. HF was defined as a maximum lysis (ML) >15 % in EXTEM. Results: The median (min-max) ISS was 17 points (4-50 points). Four patients (15 %) had HF diagnosed via ROTEM at the scene, and 2 patients (7.5 %) had HF diagnosed via ROTEM on admission to the ED. The median ML before TxA administration was 11 % (3-99 %) vs. 10 % after TxA administration (4-18 %; p > 0.05). TxA was administered 37 min (10-85 min) before ED arrival. The ROTEM results before and after TxA administration did not significantly differ. No adverse drug reactions were observed after TxA administration. Discussion: HF can be present in severely injured patients during pre-hospital care. Antifibrinolytic therapy administered at the scene is a significant time saver. Even in milder trauma fibrinogen can be decreased to critically low levels. Early administration of TxA cannot reverse or entirely stop this decrease. Conclusions: The pre-hospital use of TxA should be considered for severely injured patients to prevent the worsening of trauma-induced coagulopathy and unnecessarily high fibrinogen consumption."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/s13049-016-0314-4"],["dc.identifier.isi","000384950400003"],["dc.identifier.pmid","27724970"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/13894"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/39223"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Biomed Central Ltd"],["dc.relation.issn","1757-7241"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","The pre-hospital administration of tranexamic acid to patients with multiple injuries and its effects on rotational thrombelastometry: a prospective observational study in pre-hospital emergency medicine"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Methods Data from the TraumaRegister DGU collected between 2010 and 2019 were used to evaluate patients above 16 years of age with severe rib fractures [Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS)  ≥ 3] who received an SSRF in a matched-pairs analysis. In this matched-pairs analysis, we compared the effects of an early SSRF within 48 h after initial trauma vs. late SSRF 3–10 days after trauma. Results After the selection process, we were able to find 142 matched pairs for further evaluation. Early SSRF was associated with a significantly shorter length of stay in the intensive care unit (16.2 days vs. 12.7 days, p  = 0.020), and the overall hospital stay (28.5 days vs. 23.4 days, p  = 0.005) was significantly longer in the group with late SSRF. Concerning the days on mechanical ventilation, we were able to demonstrate a trend for an approximately 1.5 day shorter ventilation time for patients after early SSRF, although this difference was not statistically significant ( p  = 0.226). Conclusions We were able to determine the significant beneficial effects of early SSRF resulting in a shorter intensive care unit stay and a shorter length of stay in hospital and additionally a trend to a shorter time on mechanical ventilation."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fsurg.2022.852097"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/112188"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-581"],["dc.relation.eissn","2296-875X"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.title","Impact of Time of Surgery on the Outcome after Surgical Stabilization of Rib Fractures in Severely Injured Patients with Severe Chest Trauma—A Matched-Pairs Analysis of the German Trauma Registry"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

An alternative treatment is surgery involving percutaneous screw fixation to stabilize the posterior pelvic ring. This surgical treatment enables patients to be mobilized quickly and complications associated with bedrest and temporary immobility are reduced. However, the functional outcome following surgery and quality of life of the patients have not yet been investigated. Here, we present a comprehensive study addressing the long-term well-being and the quality of life of patients with fragility pelvic ring fractures after surgical treatment.\r\n \r\n \r\n Methods\r\n Between 2011–2019, 215 geriatric patients with pelvic ring fractures were surgically treated at the university hospital in Göttingen (Germany). Of these, 94 patients had fragility fractures for which complete sets of computer tomography (CT) and radiological images were available. Fractures were classified according to Tile and according to the FFP classification of Rommens and Hofmann. The functional outcome of surgical treatment was evaluated using the Majeed pelvic score and the Short Form Health Survey-36 (SF-36).\r\n \r\n \r\n Results\r\n Thirty five tile type C and 48 type B classified patients were included in the study. After surgery eighty-three patients scored in average 85.92 points (± 23.39) of a maximum of 100 points using the Majeed score questionnaire and a mean of 1.60 points on the numerical rating scale ranging between 0 and 10 points where 0 points refers to “no pain” and 10 means “strongest pain”. Also, the SF-36 survey shows that surgical treatment positively effects patients with respect to their general health status and by restoring vitality, reducing bodily pain and an increase of their general mental health.\r\n \r\n \r\n Conclusions\r\n Patients who received a percutaneous screw fixation of fragility fractures of the posterior pelvic ring reported an overall positive outcome concerning their long-term well-being. In particular, older patients appear to benefit from surgical treatment.\r\n \r\n \r\n Trial registration\r\n Functional outcome and quality of life after surgical treatment of fragility fractures of the posterior pelvic ring, DRKS00024768.
