Congestive heart failure (CHF) is often associated with kidney and pulmonary dysfunction. Activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) contributes to avid sodium retention, cardiac hypertrophy and oedema formation, including lung congestion. While the status of the classic components of RAAS such as renin, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensin II (Ang II) and angiotensin II receptor AT-1 is well studied in CHF, the expression of angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2), a key enzyme of angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) generation in the pulmonary, cardiac and renal systems has not been studied thoroughly in this clinical setting.

Bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) are complex systems with properties that far exceed those of the individual constituents. In particular, association of a noble metal and a first-row transition metal are attracting increasing interest for applications in catalysis, electrocatalysis, and magnetism, among others. Such objects display a rich structural chemistry thanks to their ability to form intermetallic phases, random alloys, or core-shell species. Read More

Background: For hand surgeons, in addition to anamnesis and clinical examination, imaging is the essential component in diagnostics and the basis for therapy planning. The focus on the special field of the "hand" and the adjacent joints is limited with regard to the anatomical extent, but with regard to the possible clinical pictures it encompasses the entire range of pathological changes.

Clinical Issue: Which imaging techniques support the goal of maintaining the functionality of the hand?

Performance: The carpal bones can be represented by computer tomography without superimposition. Read More
