The landscape of cardiac surgery is changing, as is the field of interventional cardiology. The idea of accessing and replacing a failing valve through the patients vasculature has become the most rapidly expanding therapy of choice in cardiovascular disease. Transcatheter Valve Therapies chronicles the astonishing advances that have taken place in the field and prepares readers for the challenging future of cardiac valve therapies.Designed to meet the growing needs of cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthetists, and general practitioners, the book covers all aspects from logistic needs to clinical outcomes. It provides a comprehensive overview of transcatheter valve therapies and the necessary understanding for a successful clinical introduction at individual institutions. Topics include: Epidemiologic considerations Aspects of balloon aortic valvuloplasty as a stand-alone procedure or as part of the transcatheter valve replacement The history of how transcatheter valve therapies were implemented into surgical practice New imaging modalities The particularities of transcatheter access Aortic root anatomy Emerging technologies and future design improvements Development steps of aortic devices and potential solutions for transcatheter tricuspid, mitral, and pulmonary valve replacement The rigorous testing requirements for endovascular medical devices Clinical results of aortic transcatheter valve therapies in easy accessible text and table formats The future of transcatheter valve therapies All topics are discussed based on the authors own clinical and experimental experience in the field. This volume is essential for anyone involved in transcatheter valve implantation, clinicians wishing to become more involved in improving transcatheter valve therapies, and researchers engaged in building and creating new medical technologies to shape the cardiovascular landscape of the future.

„Der Ritterspiegel“ des Johannes Rothe (4.108 Verse) ist die umfangreichste ritterliche Standeslehre des Mittelalters in deutscher Sprache. Sie wurde für junge Adlige vermutlich im Zusammenhang mit Rothes Tätigkeit als Schulleiter in Eisenach ab 1414 verfasst. Abgesehen von der literarhistorischen Bedeutung als Lehrgedicht, ist das Werk eine reiche Quelle für die Kultur- und Rechtsgeschichte des Rittertums, welche die traditionellen Züge des Standesmodells auf die Situation des 15. Jahrhunderts zuspitzt. Rothes Tugendadel-Konzept impliziert soziale Mobilität, also Auf- und Abstieg innerhalb der Ständehierarchie. Erörtert werden eine Geschichte des Rittertums; das Recht auf die Führung von Wappen und sieben Standesprivilegien; Regeln zu Kampf und Kriegsführung, die christlich moralisierend oder rein praktisch ausgerichtet sind; Aufgaben des Heerführers; Bedeutung der Astrologie. Der thüringische Text wurde auf Basis der Kasseler Handschrift neu ediert und übersetzt, der Kommentar erschließt sprachliche Fragen, historische Bezüge und den Quellenfundus des Werkes.

Der »Prosa-Lancelot« stellt nach wie vor eine Herausforderung für die mediävistischen Forschung dar. Da es sich bei dem mittelhochdeutschen Werk um die Übersetzung einer altfranzösischen Vorlage handelt, die z.T. über eine niederländische Zwischenstufe vermittelt sein könnte, ist der Roman im Kontext der französischen, niederländischen und deutschen Literaturgeschichte zu lesen. In Deutschland wird der »Lancelot en Prose« in der modernen Prosaform rezipiert, in den Niederlanden aber außerdem wieder als Versroman bearbeitet. Aufgrund dessen ist eine Untersuchung des Werks sinnvoll nur interdisziplinär anzugehen. Der Band beinhaltet die germanistischen, romanistischen und niederlandistischen sowohl literaturwissenschaftlichen als auch sprachhistorischen Beiträge zur Tübinger Lancelot-Tagung im September 2004. Die Aufsätze konzentrieren sich auf die Themenfelder: I. Übersetzungspraxis und Prosa-Stil, II. Erzählstrategien und Sinnkonstitution, III. Überlieferung und Wirkung.

Zu den Opfern des NS-Regimes gehören auch Menschen mit Behinderung und Psychiatrieerfahrungen. Die schätzungsweise 400.000 Zwangssterilisierten und die Angehörigen der etwa 300.000 durch die "Euthanasie" Ermordeten wurden nach dem Krieg erneut ausgegrenzt und Forderungen nach Entschädigungen und weiteren Anerkennungen abgelehnt.Die Stimmen der Betroffenen sind in umfangreichen Interviews zugänglich. Huber untersucht die Auswirkung der staatlichen Diskriminierung auf das Familienleben sowie das soziale Umfeld, erhebt Selbstkonstruktion und Fremdzuschreibung ausgehend von Stellungnahmen der Betroffenen. Erst lange nach 1945 änderte sich der Umgang mit Menschen mit Behinderungen und Psychiatrieerfahrungen, nicht zuletzt dank dem Einsatz von Betroffenen. Das wirkte sich auch auf die Arbeit von Gedenkstätten aus.

The Symposia in Immunology were organized to bring important new information in the expanding field of immunology to practicing physicians interested in the field. Highly renowned basic scientists share their results with physicians conducting clinical research and thoses experienced in the treatment of the respective diseases. This series of symposia will cover different areas of immunology and will help to close the gap between the special achievements of scientists and the daily routine of practicing physicians.

In this book the most important papers presented at the 5th Symposium in Immunology, held April 7 - 8, 1995 in Strasbourg, France, are published. Theses papers are from leading experts in the fields covering topics ranging from basic mechanisms, such as the molecular anatomy of autoimmune diseases, to data relevant to the modern diagnosis, therapy, treatment, and prevention of viral infections. By collecting such a wide-range of papers the organizers of the meeting succeeded in compiling an integrated overview of current research, clinical studies, epidemiological data, and their interrelationship.
