Abstract: To suggest candidate genes involved in periodontitis, we combined gene expression data of periodontal biopsies from Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse lines, with previous reported quantitative trait loci (QTL) in mouse and with human genome-wide association studies (GWAS) associated with periodontitis. Periodontal samples from two susceptible, two resistant and two lines that showed bone formation after periodontal infection were collected during infection and naïve status. Differential expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed in a case-control and case-only design. After infection, eleven protein-coding genes were significantly stronger expressed in resistant CC lines compared to susceptible ones. Of these, the most upregulated genes were MMP20 (P = 0.001), RSPO4 (P = 0.032), CALB1 (P = 1.06×10-4), and AMTN (P = 0.05). In addition, human orthologous of candidate genes were tested for their association in a case-controls samples of aggressive (AgP) and chronic (CP) periodontitis (5,095 cases, 9,908 controls). In this analysis, variants at two loci, TTLL11/PTGS1 (rs9695213, P = 5.77×10-5) and RNASE2 (rs2771342, P = 2.84×10-5) suggested association with both AgP and CP. In the association analysis with AgP only, the most significant associations were located at the HLA loci HLA-DQH1 (rs9271850, P = 2.52×10-14) and HLA-DPA1 (rs17214512, P = 5.14×10-5). This study demonstrates the utility of the CC RIL populations as a suitable model to investigate the mechanism of periodontal disease.

Abstract: Objective: The accessibility of green space is an important aspect of the urban residential environment and has been found to be beneficial for health and well-being. This study investigates the association between different indicators of green space and the outcomes body mass index (BMI) and prevalent type 2 diabetes in an urban population. Design: Population-based cross-sectional study. Setting: Dortmund, a city located in the industrial Ruhr area in Western Germany. Participants: 1312 participants aged 25–74 years from the Dortmund Health Study. Methods: The participants’ addresses were geocoded and shapefiles of statistical districts, road network and land use, as well as data on neighbourhood characteristics were obtained at baseline. Three indicators of green space were constructed using geographical information systems: proportion of green space, recreation location quotient (RLQ) weighted by population and distance to the next park or forest. Multilevel linear and logistic regression analyses on the association of green space with BMI and type 2 diabetes were performed, adjusted by individual-level characteristics and neighbourhood unemployment rate. Results: The multilevel regression analyses showed no association between green space and BMI. In contrast, the three indicators of green space were significantly associated with type 2 diabetes. Residents of neighbourhoods with a low RLQ had a 2.44 (95% CI 1.01 to 5.93) times higher odds to have type 2 diabetes compared with residents of high RLQ neighbourhoods. Likewise, residing more than 0.8 km away from the nearest park or forest increased the odds of type 2 diabetes (OR 1.71, 95% CI 1.05 to 2.77). Conclusions: This study indicates that green space and its spatial accessibility might play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes. Further research is needed to clarify this association.

Abstract: Multiplex families with a high prevalence of a psychiatric disorder are often examined to identify rare genetic variants with large effect sizes. In the present study, we analysed whether the risk for bipolar disorder (BD) in BD multiplex families is influenced by common genetic variants. Furthermore, we investigated whether this risk is conferred mainly by BD-specific risk variants or by variants also associated with the susceptibility to schizophrenia or major depression. In total, 395 individuals from 33 Andalusian BD multiplex families (166 BD, 78 major depressive disorder, 151 unaffected) as well as 438 subjects from an independent, BD case/control cohort (161 unrelated BD, 277 unrelated controls) were analysed. Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for BD, schizophrenia (SCZ), and major depression were calculated and compared between the cohorts. Both the familial BD cases and unaffected family members had higher PRS for all three psychiatric disorders than the independent controls, with BD and SCZ being significant after correction for multiple testing, suggesting a high baseline risk for several psychiatric disorders in the families. Moreover, familial BD cases showed significantly higher BD PRS than unaffected family members and unrelated BD cases. A plausible hypothesis is that, in multiplex families with a general increase in risk for psychiatric disease, BD development is attributable to a high burden of common variants that confer a specific risk for BD. The present analyses demonstrated that common genetic risk variants for psychiatric disorders are likely to contribute to the high incidence of affective psychiatric disorders in the multiplex families. However, the PRS explained only part of the observed phenotypic variance, and rare variants might have also contributed to disease development.

Abstract: Background: The prevalence of depression is higher in individuals with autoimmune diseases, but the mechanisms underlying the observed comorbidities are unknown. Shared genetic etiology is a plausible explanation for the overlap, and in this study we tested whether genetic variation in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), which is associated with risk for autoimmune diseases, is also associated with risk for depression. Methods: We fine-mapped the classical MHC (chr6: 29.6–33.1 Mb), imputing 216 human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles and 4 complement component 4 (C4) haplotypes in studies from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium Major Depressive Disorder Working Group and the UK Biobank. The total sample size was 45,149 depression cases and 86,698 controls. We tested for association between depression status and imputed MHC variants, applying both a region-wide significance threshold (3.9 × 10−6) and a candidate threshold (1.6 × 10−4). Results: No HLA alleles or C4 haplotypes were associated with depression at the region-wide threshold. HLA-B*08:01 was associated with modest protection for depression at the candidate threshold for testing in HLA genes in the meta-analysis (odds ratio = 0.98, 95% confidence interval = 0.97–0.99). Conclusions: We found no evidence that an increased risk for depression was conferred by HLA alleles, which play a major role in the genetic susceptibility to autoimmune diseases, or C4 haplotypes, which are strongly associated with schizophrenia. These results suggest that any HLA or C4 variants associated with depression either are rare or have very modest effect sizes.

Abstract: Epigenetic processes, including DNA methylation (DNAm), are among the mechanisms allowing integration of genetic and environmental factors to shape cellular function. While many studies have investigated either environmental or genetic contributions to DNAm, few have assessed their integrated effects. Here we examine the relative contributions of prenatal environmental factors and genotype on DNA methylation in neonatal blood at variably methylated regions (VMRs) in 4 independent cohorts (overall n = 2365). We use Akaike’s information criterion to test which factors best explain variability of methylation in the cohort-specific VMRs: several prenatal environmental factors (E), genotypes in cis (G), or their additive (G + E) or interaction (GxE) effects. Genetic and environmental factors in combination best explain DNAm at the majority of VMRs. The CpGs best explained by either G, G + E or GxE are functionally distinct. The enrichment of genetic variants from GxE models in GWAS for complex disorders supports their importance for disease risk.

Abstract: Individual response to stress is correlated with neuroticism and is an important predictor of both neuroticism and the onset of major depressive disorder (MDD). Identification of the genetics underpinning individual differences in response to negative events (stress-sensitivity) may improve our understanding of the molecular pathways involved, and its association with stress-related illnesses. We sought to generate a proxy for stress-sensitivity through modelling the interaction between SNP allele and MDD status on neuroticism score in order to identify genetic variants that contribute to the higher neuroticism seen in individuals with a lifetime diagnosis of d

Abstract: Educational attainment is strongly influenced by social and other environmental factors, but genetic factors are estimated to account for at least 20% of the variation across individuals. Here we report the results of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for educational attainment that extends our earlier discovery sample of 101,069 individuals to 293,723 individuals, and a replication study in an independent sample of 111,349 individuals from the UK Biobank. We identify 74 genome-wide significant loci associated with the number of years of schooling completed. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with educational attainment are disproportionately found in genomic regions regulating gene expression in the fetal brain. Candidate genes are preferentially expressed in neural tissue, especially during the prenatal period, and enriched for biological pathways involved in neural development. Our findings demonstrate that, even for a behavioural phenotype that is mostly environmentally determined, a well-powered GWAS identifies replicable associated genetic variants that suggest biologically relevant pathways. Because educational attainment is measured in large numbers of individuals, it will continue to be useful as a proxy phenotype in efforts to characterize the genetic influences of related phenotypes, including cognition and neuropsychiatric diseases.

Abstract: Background: Various genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been done in ischaemic stroke, identifying a few loci associated with the disease, but sample sizes have been 3500 cases or less. We established the METASTROKE collaboration with the aim of validating associations from previous GWAS and identifying novel genetic associations through meta-analysis of GWAS datasets for ischaemic stroke and its subtypes. Methods: We meta-analysed data from 15 ischaemic stroke cohorts with a total of 12 389 individuals with ischaemic stroke and 62 004 controls, all of European ancestry. For the associations reaching genome-wide significance in METASTROKE, we did a further analysis, conditioning on the lead single nucleotide polymorphism in every associated region. Replication of novel suggestive signals was done in 13 347 cases and 29 083 controls. Findings: We verified previous associations for cardioembolic stroke near PITX2 (p=2·8×10-16) and ZFHX3 (p=2·28×10-8), and for large-vessel stroke at a 9p21 locus (p=3·32×10-5) and HDAC9 (p=2·03×10-12). Additionally, we verified that all associations were subtype specific. Conditional analysis in the three regions for which the associations reached genome-wide significance (PITX2, ZFHX3, and HDAC9) indicated that all the signal in each region could be attributed to one risk haplotype. We also identified 12 potentially novel loci at p<5×10-6. However, we were unable to replicate any of these novel associations in the replication cohort. Interpretation: Our results show that, although genetic variants can be detected in patients with ischaemic stroke when compared with controls, all associations we were able to confirm are specific to a stroke subtype. This finding has two implications. First, to maximise success of genetic studies in ischaemic stroke, detailed stroke subtyping is required. Second, different genetic pathophysiological mechanisms seem to be associated with different stroke subtypes. Funding: Wellcome Trust, UK Medic

Abstract: We performed a meta-analysis of 14 genome-wide association studies of coronary artery disease (CAD) comprising 22,233 individuals with CAD (cases) and 64,762 controls of European descent followed by genotyping of top association signals in 56,682 additional individuals. This analysis identified 13 loci newly associated with CAD at P < 5 - 10'8 and confirmed the association of 10 of 12 previously reported CAD loci. The 13 new loci showed risk allele frequencies ranging from 0.13 to 0.91 and were associated with a 6% to 17% increase in the risk of CAD per allele. Notably, only three of the new loci showed significant association with traditional CAD risk factors and the majority lie in gene regions not previously implicated in the pathogenesis of CAD. Finally, five of the new CAD risk loci appear to have pleiotropic effects, showing strong association with various other human diseases or traits.

13. Restless Legs Syndrom und subjektives Wohlbefinden:Ergebnisse der COR-Studie

Author: Gräler, L. (Lena-Marie), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Restless Legs Syndrom, Depressivität, Lebensqualität, Schlafqualität, COR-Study, Medicine and health, ddc:610
Abstract: In der COR-Studie wurden Mitglieder deutscher und schweizer Selbsthilfegruppen sowie Patienten aus dem ARELESS-Register über einen Zeitraum von 3 Jahren befragt. Die Fragebögen enthielten validierte Skalen zur Erhebung des RLS-Schweregrades (IRLS), der Depressivität (CESD), der Lebensqualität (SF-36) und der Schlafqualität (PSQI). Der RLS-Schweregrad zeigte in allen Skalen durchgehend einen starken negativen Einfluss auf die Domänen des Wohlbefinden. Der Einfluss des RLS-Schweregrades nahm für alle Skalen über die drei Jahre hinweg zu. Die Betrachtung der Veränderungen der einzelnen Skalen über den Studienzeitraum zeigte ebenfalls durchgehend einen hohen Einfluss der Veränderung des RLS-Schweregrades. Nicht nur das Vorhandensein des RLS an sich, sondern auch das Ausmaß der Erkrankung spielt eine entscheidende Rolle in Bezug auf das Wohlbefinden der Patienten. Zur Besserung des Wohlbefindens sollte der RLS-Schweregrad durch eine frühzeitige Diagnose und Therapie gesenkt werden.

14. Die Konnotationen des Schlaganfalls:Einflussfaktoren auf die Krankheitswahrnehmung des Schlaganfalls

Author: Beissel, B.M. (Bettina), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Medicine and health, Schlaganfall, Krankheitswahrnehmung, Common-Sense-Selbstregualtionsmodell, Angststörung, Post-Stroke-Depression, Symptomwahrnehmung, Stress, ddc:610
Abstract: Hintergrund: Die Krankheitswahrnehmung des Patienten hat einen großen Einfluss auf das funktionelle und psychische Outcome.Studie: Es wurden 101 Schlaganfall-Patienten aus den Stroke-Units in Münster drei Monate nach dem Schlaganfall mittels eines Fragebogens befragt, der Skalen zur Krankheitswahrnehmung (Brief-Illness Perception Questionnaire), zur Lebensqualität (EuroQual-5D), zur Depressivität und zur Angst (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) enthielt.Ergebnisse: Schicksalhaftigkeit ist für den Patienten das prägende Merkmal des Schlaganfalls. Stress wird als eine Hauptursache angesehen. Es besteht eine große Angst vor einem Rezidiv. 40% der Patienten weisen eine depressive Symptomatik oder Angststörung auf. Angst führt zu einer gesteigerten Symptomwahrnehmung und somit zu einer negativen Krankheitswahrnehmung. Diese steht in Zusammenhang mit Depressivität.Schlussfolgerung: Aufklärungskampagnen sollten zum Ziel haben, die Krankheit Schlaganfall zu „entemotionalisieren“.

15. Lebensstil als Risiko des Kopfschmerzes:eine Analyse des Einflusses verhaltensabhängiger Risikofaktoren für das Auftreten der Migräne und des Spannungskopfschmerzes in der Dortmunder Gesundheitsstudie

Author: Krabbe, B.H. (Bernd), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Medicine and health, ddc:610, Migräne, Spannungskopfschmerz, Lebensstil, BMI, Nikotin, Alkohol
Abstract: Hintergrund: In dieser Studie wurden das Vorliegen von verhaltensabhängigen Risikofaktoren und eine mögliche Assoziation zum Lebensstil für verschiedene Kopfschmerzformen untersucht. Studienpopulation: 1312 zufällig ausgewählte Personen aus der Stadt Dortmund im Alter von 25 bis 75 Jahren wurden im Zeitraum von Oktober 2003 bis September 2004 von speziell geschulten Mitarbeitern interviewt. Ergebnisse: Die Häufigkeit für Migräne mit Aura sank mit besserem Lebensstil [OR 0.79]. Dabei erwies sich nicht der einzelne Faktor, sondern der Lebensstil, repräsentiert durch die Summe mehrerer Faktoren als signifikant. Spannungskopfschmerzen traten unter leicht erhöhtem Alkoholkonsum und leicht erhöhtem BMI seltener auf. Hier konnte kein Zusammenhang zwischen Häufigkeit und Lebensstil hergestellt werden. Schlussfolgerung: Es fanden sich komplexe, je nach Kopfschmerzart spezifische, Zusammenhänge zwischen verschiedenen Faktoren und dem Risiko an Kopfschmerzen zu erkranken.

16. Der Einfluss von Strukturmerkmalen neurologischer und medizinischer Abteilungen auf das Outcome bei der Akutbehandlung des Schlaganfalls

Author: Lay, M. (Marko), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Medicine and health, ddc:610, Lay, Stroke Unit, Schlaganfall, Insult, Lysetherapie, Liegezeit, Strukturvorraussetzung, Neurologie, Geriatrie, Innere Abteilung
Abstract: Ein Schlaganfall macht schnelles Handeln unerlaesslich. Das Konzept moderner Stroke Units soll das Behandlungsergebnis entscheidend verbessern. Auklaerung ueber die Symptome, eine fruehe, umfassende Diagnostik und schnelle, effektive Therapie mit intensiver Fruehrehabilitation und kurzen Liegezeiten, sind dabei entscheidend. Man hofft so, die Prognose zu verbessern und ein funktionelleres Ergebnis fuer die Patienten zu erzielen. Die Auswertung vorliegender Daten aus dem Qualitaetssicherungsprojekt Schlaganfall Westfalen- Lippe zeigt: Moderne Verfahren der Lysetherapie sind mit erheblichen Risiken verbunden und beduerfen einer sorgfaeltigen Indikationsstellung. Eine konsequentere und schnellere Anwendung konservativer Therapien wie z.B. der Krankengymnastik scheint noetig. Andere diagnostische und therapeutische Moeglichkeiten sollten bezueglich ihres Nutzens ueberprueft werden. Mit weiteren Anstrengungen laesst sich der Therapieerfolg für den Patienten sicherlich noch verbessern.

17. Compliance der medikamentösen Sekundärprävention nach Hirninfarkt

Author: Poeplau, A. (Anne-Kathrin), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Medicine and health, ddc:610, Hirninfarkt, ischämisch, Sekundärprävention, Medikamentencompliance, Einflussfaktoren
Abstract: In dieser Arbeit wurde die Patientencompliance für Antihämostatika, Antihypertensiva, Statine und Antidiabetika drei Monate nach ischämischem Infarkt ermittelt sowie nach patientenbezogenen Einflussfaktoren auf die Compliance geforscht. Beeinflussbare Faktoren für eine positive Compliance waren Art und Zeitpunkt der Therapieeinleitung sowie eine regelmäßige ärztliche Weiterbetreuung.

18. Entwicklung und Untersuchung eines einfachen klinischen Defizitscores für Schlaganfallpatienten als prädiktives Modell für das Outcome nach systemischer Thrombolyse

Author: Krause, L.U. (Lars), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Medicine and health, ddc:610, Schlaganfall, Prädiktion, Outcome, NIHSS, Score, Thrombolyse
Abstract: Die NIHSS ist der Goldstandard zur Beschreibung des Schlaganfallschweregrades. Die Anwendung der NIHSS setzt jedoch ein spezielles Training voraus. Für die Arbeit wurde ein einfacher Score entwickelt, der nur die Symptome Parese, Aphasie, Dysarthrie und Bewusstseinslage umfasst. Es wird nur das Vorliegen eines Symptoms bewertet, nicht dessen Ausprägung. Der prädiktive Wert des neuen Scores und der NIHSS für das klinische Outcome wurde an einer Stroke-Unit untersucht. Dabei zeigte sich, dass der neue Score eine zuverlässige Identifikation von Hirninfarktpatienten mit einer schlechten Behandlungsprognose ermöglicht. Die NIHSS ist nur geringfügig überlegen. Ein Anwendungsgebiet des neuen Scores sind klinische Studien, die eine Aufteilung von Patienten in Schwergradkategorien erfordern. Die einfache Handhabung des neuen Scores ermöglicht eine hohe Reliabilität der Bewertung auch bei vielen beteiligten Untersuchern, da die Bewertungskriterien leicht zu erlernen sind.

19. Überprüfung der Reliabilität von postalischer und telefonischer Version eines Nachbefragungsmoduls in der poststationären Phase von Schlaganfallpatienten

Author: Ruf, H.U.M. (Hans), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Schlaganfall, Ergebnisqualität, Follow up Untersuchung, Nachuntersuchungsmethodik, Barthel-Index, Rankin Scale, Medicine and health, ddc:610
Abstract: Hintergrund und Methodik: Das Erfassen von Ergebnisqualität im Rahmen medizinischer Qualitätssicherung gelingt nur mit geeigneten und validierten Messinstrumenten und Erhebungsmethoden. Anhand von 140 Schlaganfall-patienten wurde die Reliabilität eines postalischen und telefonischen Nachbefragungsmoduls untersucht. Dazu wurde zuvor bei 40 Patienten eine deutsche Form des Barthelindex (BI) validiert und diese zusammen mit der deutschsprachigen Rankin Scale (RS) der persönlichen "face to face" Untersuchung als Goldstandard gegenübergestellt. Ergebnisse und Resümee: Es fand sich für die deutsche Version des BI eine exzellente Interrater - Reliabilität ( gew. kappa 0,90 ). Sowohl für das postalische ( BI 0,75, RS 0,66) als auch telefonische (BI 0,73, RI 0,76) Erhebungsverfahren fanden sich jeweils gute Übereinstimmungskoeffizienten. Bei der Durchführung von Follow up Untersuchungen wird man der postalischen Version auf Grund des geringeren Ressourcenverbrauchs den Vorzug geben.

20. Einflussfaktoren auf die Intima-Media-Dicke der Arteria carotis als Marker subklinischer Arteriosklerose in einer älteren Allgemeinbevölkerung:Die Augsburger Seniorenstudie

Author: Plogmeier, D. (Daniela), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Intima-Media-Dicke, Arteria carotis communis, Ultraschall, Risikofaktoren, Lebensalter, Medicine and health, ddc:610
Abstract: Um die Assoziationen zwischen Risikofaktoren und arteriosklerotischen Gefäßveränderungen zu erfassen, wurde bei Personen ab dem 65. Lebensjahr in einer deutschen Allgemeinbevölkerung mittels Ultraschall die Wanddicke der Intima-Media (IMD) der Arteria carotis communis beidseitig bestimmt. Bei beiden Geschlechtern ist die Wanddicke der A. carotis links stärker als rechts, wobei Frauen insgesamt eine geringere Dicke beider Carotiden aufweisen. Mit steigendem Lebensalter nimmt die IMD zu. Der Einfluss der Risikofaktoren ist auf die IMD der linken A. carotis communis größer. Bedeutsam sind Hypertonie, seitenabhängig die Operation an einer Schlagader, Diabetes mellitus, CRP und Gesamtcholesterin. Schlussfolgernd besteht eine deutliche Assoziation zwischen Risikofaktoren und IMD. Die Doppler-Sonographie der Carotiden stellt eine valide Maßnahme dar, um eine subklinische Arteriosklerose bereits im Vorfeld klinisch manifester Ereignisse, wie Schlaganfall oder Herzinfarkt zu diagnostizieren.

21. Die Auswirkungen extrapyramidalmotorischer Symptome auf Alltagsfunktionen und Lebensqualität in einer älteren Allgemeinbevölkerung:die Augsburger Seniorenstudie

Author: Rockenfeller, C. (Corinna), Berger, K. (Klaus), and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster
Subjects: Extrapyramidalmotorische Symptome, Lebensqualität im Alter, Kognitive Funktionen, Motorische Leistungsfähigkeit, Alter und Aktivität, Medicine and health, ddc:610
Abstract: Hintergrund: Im Alter kommt es häufig zum Auftreten körperlicher und kognitiver Einschränkungen, die oft dem normalen Prozess des Alterns zugeschrieben werden. Extrapyramidalmotorische Symptome (EPS) wie Tremor, Rigor und Bradykinese werden im Alter mit höherer Prävalenz beobachtet. In dieser Studie wurden bei 385 Personen über 65 Jahre Assoziationen zwischen EPS und Einschränkungen von Alltagsfunktionen, sowie Auswirkungen der EPS auf die Lebensqualität untersucht. Ergebnisse: EPS wurden mit einer Prävalenz von 35% festgestellt. Die Symptome sind stark assoziiert mit Beeinträchtigungen in den Alltagsfunktionen und wirken sich auf die subjektive Lebensqualität aus. Einschränkungen motorischer und koordinatorischer Fähigkeiten sind grenzwertig signifikant. Beeinträchtigungen kognitiver Leistungen sind nicht nachweisbar. Schlussfolgerung: Es besteht eine Assoziation zwischen EPS und den Alltagsfunktionen im Alter. EPS wirken sich negativ auf die subjektiv empfundene Lebensqualität aus.
