Muscle Stress Relief: An integrated research program linking together basic research on secondary myopathies in stress states to innovative translation in applied myology. (Muscle stress relief)
Start date: Mar 1, 2016, End date: Feb 29, 2020,
A diverse variety of medical or lifestyle conditions lead to a progressive loss of muscle force by functionally impairing myofibril contractility and causing ultimately myofibril loss. Major underlying risk factors of chronic muscle force loss are ageing, inactive lifestyles, and unbalanced nutrition. Together, these factors are predicted to lead to an endemic incidence of muscle weakness both in ...

Biomarker Development for Postoperative Cognitive Impairment in the Elderly (BioCog)
Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,
Postoperative delirium (POD) is characterized by the progressive deterioration of sensory/cognitive function after surgery with incidences of up to 30-80%. It is frequently followed by postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) which tends to persist over time. In elderly patients, POCD resembles chronic dementia and appears to accelerate the cognitive decline in Alzheimer dementia. POD is strongl ...

Feasibility study for clinical validation of an innovative point of care assay for the detection of low-grade-infections in joint replacement (QuantOnCal)
Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
...evision surgeries and immense impact for the patient. Established markers all failed in the past, in contrast elevated calprotectin and S100A12 levels show a high correlation to low-grade-infections. Immundiagnostik AG developed its own robust smartphone-application based point-of-care assay for measuring calprotectin quantitatively and rapidly without any laboratory. Extending this concept to a c ...
