Limb salvage surgery (LSS) is the preferred method for treatment of patients with sarcomas and to a greater extent also to patients with metastatic bone disease. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the adaptive remodeling of the periprosthetic cortical bone after insertion of a tumor prosthesis with cemented stem.

A prospective study of 21 patients (F/M = 12/9), mean age 55 years (range 15-81) with metastatic bone disease (n = 9), sarcomas (n = 8) or aggressive benign tumors (n = 4) who underwent bone resection due to a tumor, and reconstruction with a tumor-prosthesis (Zimmer® Segmental 130 mm straight fluted cemented stem with trabecular metal (TM) collars) in the proximal femur (n = 10), distal femur (n = 9) or proximal tibia (n = 2). Measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) (g/cm
) were done postoperatively and after 3, 6, and 12 months using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. BMD was measured in 4 regions of interest around the cemented stem and in one region of interest 1 cm proximal fromCommittee of the Capital Region of Denmark (J. No. H-2-2014-105) and the Danish Data Protection Agency (J. No. 2012-58-00004 ).
The echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like-4 anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EML4-ALK) fusion gene was identified in a subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. They responded positively to ALK inhibitors. This study aimed to characterize the mechanisms triggered by EML4-ALK to induce NSCLC transformation.

HEK293 and NIH3T3 cells were transfected with EML4-ALK variant 3 or pcDNA3.1-NC. H2228 cells were transfected with siRNA-EML4-ALK or siRNA-NC. Cell viability and proliferation were measured by the CCK-8 and EdU methods, respectively. Flow cytometry revealed apoptosis. Gene expression profiles were generated from a signaling pathway screen in EML4-ALK-regulated lung cancer cells and verified by qPCR and Western blotting. The co-immunoprecipitation and immunohistochemistry/ immunofluorescence determined the interaction and colocalization of JAK2-STAT pathway components with EML4-ALK.

Microarray identified several genes involved in the JAK2-STAT pathway. JAK2 and STAT6 were constitutivel is essential for the development of non-small cell lung cancer.
As children show a more complex but less structured movement behavior than adults, assessment of their many spontaneous and impulsive movements is a challenge for physical activity (PA) assessment. Since neither questionnaires nor accelerometers enable optimal detection of all facets of PA, a multimodal, combined approach of self-reported and device-based methods is recommended. Based on the number of days on which the participants reached the physical activity (PA) values given in the WHO guideline, this study examines 1) the difference between self-reported and device-based, measured PA and 2) whether PA differences between age and gender groups obtained by two methods are comparable.

Participants aged 6-17 years were randomly chosen and data were collected representatively at 167 sample points throughout Germany within the Motorik-Modul Study. PA of n = 2694 participants (52.3% female) was measured using the ActiGraph accelerometer (ACC) and a physical activity questionnaire (PAQ). The sample was dividA.
Children and adolescents living in Germany show a very low adherence to the WHO guideline on PA. While younger children are much more active with their free play, especially children over 10 years of age and especially girls should be the target of programs to increase PA.
To examine women's perceptions of factors that influence their food shopping choices, particularly in relation to store layout, and their views on ways that supermarkets could support healthier choices.

This qualitative cross-sectional study used semi-structured telephone interviews to ask participants the reasons for their choice of supermarket and factors in-store that prompted their food selections. The actions supermarkets, governments and customers could take to encourage healthier food choices were explored with women. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify key themes.

Six supermarkets across England.

Twenty women customers aged 18-45 years.

Participants had a median age of 39.5 years (IQR 35.1, 42.3), a median weekly grocery spend of £70 (IQR 50, 88), and 44% had left school aged 16 years. Women reported that achieving value for money, feeling hungry, tired, or stressed, and meeting family members' food preferences influenced their food shopping choices. The physical environment was impoket environments could reduce the burden of personal responsibility for healthy eating, by making healthier choices easier. iCRT3 Future research could explore the interplay of personal, societal and commercial responsibility for food choices and health status.
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip rarely develops in the early second decade. As the incidence of this disease is low, no treatment method has been established. We report two patients with unilateral OA in their early teens in whom the anteversion angle of the femoral neck on the affected side was greater than that on the unaffected side.

Case 1 was an 11-year-old girl with left coxalgia and limited range of motion. There was no history of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) or developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Plain X-rays revealed the disappearance of the Y cartilage, joint space narrowing of the left hip, and acetabular/femoral head osteosclerosis. In CT images, the anteversion angle of the femoral neck (lt/rt) was 45/35 degrees. As osteoarthritis was severe, proximal femoral flexional derotational varus osteotomy (PFFDVO) and triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) were performed. Case 2 was a 13-year-old girl with left coxalgia and limited range of motion. There was no history of FAI or DDH. Plain X-ray reange-of-motion limits remained.
We present the findings in two patients with unilateral OA in their early second decade in whom the femoral anteversion angle on the affected side was greater than that on the unaffected side. PFFDVO + TPO was performed in Case 1, and PFFDVO + bone spur resection on the femoral head was performed in Case 2. Coxalgia resolved, and plain X-ray demonstrated improvements in OA; however, a difference in the leg length and range-of-motion limits remained.
