Serum levels of sclerostin reflect altered bone microarchitecture in patients with hepatic cirrhosis
Published in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift
BackgroundPatients with hepatic cirrhosis are at increased risk of bone loss. Recent work on areal bone mineral density has reported contradictory findings. As the assessment of bone microarchitecture is complex, a search was made for correlations with new serum markers of bone turnover. Current data on serum sclerostin levels in patients with incr...

Bionic reconstruction : Restoration of extremity function with osseointegrated and mind-controlled prostheses.
Published in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift
Loss of an extremity at any level has a major impact on a patient's life. Using bionic reconstruction, extremity function can be restored and the patient reintegrated into daily life. Surgical procedures including selective nerve transfer and anchoring of prostheses into bone are combined with structured rehabilitation and modern prosthetic fitting...
Impact of hemodialysis on liver stiffness measured with real-time two-dimensional shear wave elastography.
Published in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift
The impact of hemodialysis on liver stiffness is still unclear. The aim of the study was to assess liver fibrosis by real-time two-dimensional shear wave elastography (RT 2D-SWE) and to quantify the influence of net fluid withdrawal on liver stiffness during one hemodialysis session. The second aim was to investigate the influence of systolic blood...
