1	Plantar sensory vibration thresholds are not influenced by body position Germano, Andresa M.C., Schmidt, Daniel, Schlee, Günther, Milani, Thomas L. 25 October 2016 (has links) (PDF) Monitoring skin sensitivity is studied to clarify its relationship on balance. Measuring skin sensitivity is performed when subjects are sitting or lying, whereas balance tests are measured during standing. However, afferent signal processing and subsequent efferent responses can be altered by different body positions. Therefore, this study investigated whether vibration perception thresholds (VPTs) are influenced by body positions. Sixty-six healthy subjects (41♀; 25♂) participated in this study. Five measurements of VPTs were performed at each of the three analyzed anatomical locations (heel, first metatarsal head, hallux) of the right plantar foot under two randomized conditions: during sitting and standing. The contact force applied to the probe was measured and controlled within the five trials. Contact forces between the probe and the foot were higher during standing. However, no differences in VPTs were found between conditions. This indicates that VPTs are not different during standing compared to sitting, contrary to our expectations. We conclude that higher forces did not induce increased receptor activity. Since no differences were found between thresholds, future clinical studies can implement plantar VPT tests during sitting in association with balance tests during standing.

3	Alle Jahre wieder - kam der „Apfelsinen-Dampfer“: Wie spannend Weihnachten in der DDR sein konnte… Schönfuß-Krause, Renate 21 June 2021 (has links) Jedes Jahr am 6. Dezember begann der Verkauf von Navel-Apfelsinen in der DDR. Im Volksmund war der „Apfelsinendampfer angekommen“ Begriffe, die unser Leben in der DDR besonders vor Weihnachten prägten. Trotz Zuteilung begehrter Mangelware waren die Tische zu Weihnachten reich gedeckt, die Menschen hielten zusammen und Schenken machte Freude....Ein Einblick in das Leben Ostdeutschlands. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/943 ddc:943
