On the basis of Nelson’s stochastic mechanics derivation of the Schrödinger equation, a formal mathematical structure of non-relativistic quantum mechanics equivalent to the one in classical analytical mechanics has been established in the literature. We recently were able to augment this structure by deriving quantum Hamilton equations of motion b...

Background and Objectives: The proximal humeral fracture (PHF) is one of the most common fractures in elderly patients. A PHF might influence the quality of life (QoL) on several different levels, especially in elderly patients, but it is unclear which treatment option results in a better QoL outcome. Therefore, we aimed to systematically review th...
Background
The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes are a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous hereditary diseases affecting the connective tissue. They are characterized by hypermobility of the joints, hyperextensible skin and friable tissue.

It is a well-known fact that people with Ehlers–Danlos syndromes (EDS) report a worse oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) than the general population. The aim of this study was to examine whether there is a correlation between the subjective OHRQoL and the objectively measured oral health in people with EDS. To determine the subjective OHR...
Background/Introduction
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) continues to be one of the most frequent diseases worldwide, remaining among the most common causes of mortality in both women and men of industrialised nations. Female sex has been reported to be associated with an unfavourable outcome in AMI. Differences related to patients' sex have been...

Background
Adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) represent a growing patient population with high morbidity and increasing health resource utilization. In addition to acute and chronic cardiac complications, these patients require numerous non-cardiac surgical procedures during their life-time. Limited data on the morbidity and mortality risk...
Background
The life-span of patients with congenital heart disease strongly increased during the last decades due to advances in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Some cardiac malformations may involve an increased risk of thrombo-embolic complications. Further, adult patients with congenital heart disease (ACHD) are at increased risk to devel...
Background:
Preformed nasal endotracheal tubes (NETs) come with a predefined insertion depth due to their curved design. While size indication refers to internal diameter, there is a considerable variability in the corresponding lengths and proportions of same-sized tubes of different manufacturers which is probably based on the lack of data of na...
The description of non-relativistic quantum systems is generally based upon the same fundamental structure as found in the theory of (classical) analytical mechanics. Thus, the Schrödinger equation, the stochastic kinematic equations of Edward Nelson and the quantum Hamilton principle, as introduced by Michele Pavon, are equivalent methods for a un...
Non-relativistic quantum systems are analyzed theoretically or by numerical approaches using the Schrödinger equation. Compared to the options available to treat classical mechanical systems this is limited, both in methods and in scope. However, based on Nelson's stochastic mechanics, the mathematical structure of quantum mechanics has in some asp...
