The prognosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors is related to size, histology and proliferation rate. However, this stratification needs to be refined further. We conducted a proteome study on insulinomas, a well-defined pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor entity, in order to identify proteins that can be used as biomarkers for malignancy. Based on a long follow-up, insulinomas were divided into those with metastases (malignant) and those without (benign). Microdissected cells from six benign and six malignant insulinomas were subjected to a procedure combining fluorescence dye saturation labeling with high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Differentially expressed proteins were identified using nano liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization/multi-stage mass spectrometry and validated by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays containing 62 insulinomas. Sixteen differentially regulated proteins were identified among 3000 protein spots. Immunohistochemical validation revealed that aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 and voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 1 showed significantly stronger expression in malignant insulinomas than in benign insulinomas, whereas tumor protein D52 (TPD52) binding protein was expressed less strongly in malignant insulinomas than in benign insulinomas. Using multivariate analysis, low TPD52 expression was identified as a strong independent prognostic factor for both recurrence-free and overall disease-related survival.

Objective: We examined the influence of clinical, radiologic, and echocardiographic characteristics on antithrombotic choice in patients with cryptogenic stroke (CS) and patent foramen ovale (PFO), hypothesizing that features suggestive of paradoxical embolism might lead to greater use of anticoagulation. Methods: The Risk of Paradoxical Embolism Study combined 12 databases to create the largest dataset of patients with CS and known PFO status. We used generalized linear mixed models with a random effect of component study to explore whether anticoagulation was preferentially selected based on the following: (1) younger age and absence of vascular risk factors, (2) “high-risk” echocardiographic features, and (3) neuroradiologic findings. Results: A total of 1,132 patients with CS and PFO treated with anticoagulation or antiplatelets were included. Overall, 438 participants (39%) were treated with anticoagulation with a range (by database) of 22% to 54%. Treatment choice was not influenced by age or vascular risk factors. However, neuroradiologic findings (superficial or multiple infarcts) and high-risk echocardiographic features (large shunts, shunt at rest, and septal hypermobility) were predictors of anticoagulation use. Conclusion: Both antithrombotic regimens are widely used for secondary stroke prevention in patients with CS and PFO. Radiologic and echocardiographic features were strongly associated with treatment choice, whereas conventional vascular risk factors were not. Prior observational studies are likely to be biased by confounding by indication.

In der anthropologischen Sammlung des Musée de l'Homme in Paris befinden sich etwa 23000 Objekte, darunter Skelette des modernen Menschen und des Neandertalers, Mumien, Haarproben, ethnographische Büsten und Moulagen. Aufgrund der kolonialen Vergangenheit Frankreichs bilden rezente und historische Schädelserien aus den ehemaligen Kolonien einen Schwerpunkt der Sammlung, die vor allem im 19. Jahrhundert zusammengetragen wurde. Unter den Überresten befinden sich auch die Skelette namentlich bekannter Individuen, die daher besonders von möglichen Rückgabeforderungen betroffen sind und einen sensiblen Umgang mit dieser Thematik erfordern. Am Beispiel dreier Serien von algerischen Schädeln (Berber, Kabylen, Chaouia) sollen die Chancen einer präventiven Dokumentation mittels 3D-Oberflächenscannings erläutert sowie die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der anthropologischen Untersuchung dieses stark selektierten Materials vorgestellt werden. Die Schädel wurden Ende des 19. Jhs. von französischen Militärärzten in der damaligen Kolonie Algerien gesammelt und später der Société d’anthropologie de Paris übergeben. In dieser Studie wurden die Schädel zunächst einer anthropologischen Basisuntersuchung unterzogen (Individualalter, Geschlecht, Metrik, Zahnstatus). Basierend auf den metrischen Daten von 105 Schädeln wurde die Homo- und Heterogenität der drei ethnisch und kulturell verschiedenen Populationen untersucht (Berber: n=69, Kabylen: n=24, Chaouia: n=12). Einige Individuen heben sich morphologisch und metrisch von dem übrigen Material ab und könnten einen subsaharischen Ursprung vermuten lassen. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Untersuchung soll über den wissenschaftlichen und politischen Umgang mit musealen Altsammlungen und den Sinn oder Unsinn deren anthropologischer Bearbeitung diskutiert werden. Die Rekonstruktion des Kontextes, aus dem die menschlichen Überreste stammen, soll dabei im Vordergrund stehen.
