    A series of rhodium(I)–1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene (trz) complexes are described, containing either a novel triarylated trz ligand A′ (N1, N3-arylated, C4-ferrocenyl) {complexes 1, [Rh(A′)Cl(cod)]; 4, [Rh(A′)Cl(CO)2]}, or N3-alkylated triazolylidenes with a C4-ferrocenyl {2, [Rh(B′)Cl(cod)]; 5, [Rh(B′)Cl(CO)2]} or C4-phenyl substituent {3, [Rh(C′)Cl(cod)]; 6, [Rh(C′)Cl(CO)2]}. The free mesoionic carbene (MIC) A′ is structurally characterized and its electronic properties evaluated by employing the complex [Pd(Br)2(iPr2-bimy)(A′)] (7) in an NMR spectroscopic analysis method. The redox activity of A′ is exploited, and the chemically oxidized precursor Aox and complex 4ox are isolated. The mesoionic carbene complexes 1– 3, as well as in situ oxidized 1ox, are used as homogeneous catalysts for the hydroformylation of 1-octene for the first time, and the influence of chemical oxidation of the catalyst on the activity and chemo- and regioselectivity of the catalyst precursor 1 is evaluated.F.D. and T.W. gratefully acknowledge financial support from the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie (FCI).

    Suizidalität bei Depressionen unter repetitiver transkranieller Magnetstimulation

    Suicidality is a serious global public health problem and is closely associated with depression. There is a need for effective anti-suicidal therapies. rTMS shows promising potential as a modern form of therapy. Due to the still very limited evidence on this connection, there is a need for further research. Thus, the primary research objective of the present project was to investigate the effect of rTMS on suicidality in depressive patients. Two research questions were to be answered. Firstly, how the suicidality of test subjects changes after the intervention compared to the initial situation. Secondly, whether the use of rTMS shows greater anti-suicidal effectiveness than the use of conventional pharmacotherapy in a direct sample comparison. As part of a crossover study, a sample of 54 depressives underwent an iTBS intervention (5Hz trains with 50Hz bursts). The data was collected in clinical interviews using standardized measurement instruments. The suicidality of the participants was significantly reduced. However, there were no significant differences between the two study arms. In a similarly composed sample of 33 depressive subjects undergoing conventional antidepressant pharmacotherapy, a comparable anti-suicidal effect was shown. The secondary research objective of this project was to identify associations between an anti-suicidal treatment effect after rTMS intervention in depressive subjects deep clinical risk factors for suicidality. Lifetime suicidality (suicidal thoughts and behavior), certain sociodemographic characteristics (family status, income and social support) as well as anxiety, impulsivity and sleep disturbances were found to be potentially suitable factors. The analysis of the 54 depressive subjects undergoing rTMS therapy showed significant positive correlations between the reduction in suicidality and the reduction in impulsivity and sleep disorders, a trend towards a positive association with the reduction in anxiety and significant group differences according to income. Overall, the results of the present project showed a significant reduction in suicidality in depressive patients after rTMS intervention compared to the initial situation, which initially confirms the assumed potential for anti-suicidal effectiveness. However, this is put into perspective by the fact that the results did not allow a reliable differentiation from placebo effects, nor did the observed effect prove to be superior to that of conventional pharmacotherapy. Furthermore, the results obtained suggest that the change in impulsivity and sleep disturbances as well as possibly that of anxiety and income level with regard to the reduction of suicidality in depressive subjects undergoing rTMS therapy could be of clinical benefit. There is still a need for further research in this area. On one hand, in order to outline the anti-suicidal effectiveness of rTMS even more clearly in the future, and on the other hand, in order to be able to identify and specify further factors for estimating the success of therapy.2025-04-0

    In dieser prospektiven Studie an 51 Patienten mit mittels MRT nachgewiesenem lumbalen Diskusprolaps, bei denen eine Mikrodiskotomie durchgeführt wurde, wurden verschiedene MRT-Befunde, wozu Modic-Veränderungen, Hinterkantendefekte, die Kantenunschärfe und die T2-Signalintensität von Prolaps und Ausgangsbandscheibe zählten, mit dem histopathologischen Befund nach Resektion des Prolapsmaterials korreliert. Hierbei ergab sich eine durchschnittliche Zusammensetzung des Prolapsgewebes aus 62,7% Anulus fibrosus, 29,7% Nucleus pulposus und 7,5% Knorpelplatte, wobei nur bei der Hälfte der Patienten Knorpelplattenmaterial nachweisbar war. Modic-Veränderungen, das Auftreten eines Hinterkantendefekts oder einer Kantenunschärfe sowie eine verminderte Signalintensität der Ausgangsbandscheibe waren mit einem häufigeren Auftreten von Knorpelplattenmaterial im Prolapsgewebe korreliert. Die Knorpelplatte enthält Proteaseinhibitoren, welche eine spontane Resorption des Prolapsmaterials behindern
