    Notes: Abstract With an increasing number of new vaccines available for routine childhood immunization, combination vaccines are needed in order to maintain or achieve a high compliance with recommended immunization programmes. In a prospective, randomized, comparative, multi-centre study, 822 healthy infants were enrolled to receive three doses of either a candidate or a commercially available Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) vaccine concomitantly with diphtheria-, tetanus- acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccine. Study subjects were randomly allocated to one of the following groups: (1) separate, or (2) mixed injection of DTaP and candidate Hib vaccine, or (3) separate injection of DTaP and commercial Hib vaccine. One year later the first 189 study subjects received either separate or mixed injections of the same Hib and DTaP vaccines as booster doses. Evaluation of reactogenicity was based on diary cards completed by parents. Immunogenicity was documented by measuring IgG antibody concentrations in serum samples taken before and 4 weeks after primary and booster vaccination. No serious adverse events occurred and most local and systemic reactions were mild to moderate. Booster doses were more reactogenic than primary doses with all groups. Antibody concentrations against pertussis antigens were similar to those seen with DTaP alone. All but one subject had protective antibody concentrations against diphtheria and tetanus. Primary immune response to the Hib vaccine was significantly lower in the group receiving the mixed Hib-DTaP vaccine, however, ≥95% of vaccinees had anti-Hib antibody concentrations ≥0.15 μg/ml and there was a marked booster response (〉100-fold) in all groups. Conclusions Mixing DTaP and Hib vaccines for primary immunization caused a decrease in anti-Hib antibody response, although after primary immunization as after booster doses, all subjects showed antibody concentrations considered to be protective for invasive Hib disease. Mixing of the vaccines did not result in increased reactogenicity.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An 105 Individuen, 61 männlichen und 44 weiblichen, wird die Behauptung eines Geschlechtsdimorphismus hinsichtlich der Höhe und Größe der Processus mastoidei statistisch nachgeprüft. Für die mediale und laterale Fortsatzhöhe lassen sich keine signifikanten Mittelwertsdifferenzen aufzeigen. Zudem ist die Varianz der Kollektive so groß, daß der Proc. mastoid. als Identifikationsmerkmal ausscheidet. Die gefundene Mittelwertsdifferenz der Größe der Fortsätze, hier durch die äußere Fläche ausgedrückt, läßt sich statistisch eindeutig sichern. Dies entspräche der Vorstellung einer Kausalbeziehung zwischen Ausbildung und Insertion der seitlichen Halsmuskulatur einerseits und Größe bzw. Volumen der Fortsätze andererseits.
    Notes: Summary The supposition regarding sex-linked differences in height and surface area of the mastoid process was tested in 105 human skulls, 61 of which were male and 44 were female. There was no statistically significant difference noted in the mean values of the lateral and medial measurements of the processes from both sexes. Some significance, however, was noted in the measurement of the surface area. This may be associated with the insertion of stronger lateral neck-musculature, as is isually the case in males.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Pneumatisation von 91 Warzenfortsätzen erwachsener Menschen wird mittels Röntgendensitometrie in bezug auf Alters-, Geschlechts-, Seiten- und Volumen-abhängigkeit untersucht. Dabei läßt sich nur eine geringe Abhängigkeit (10%) vom Volumen des Proc. mastoid. feststellen. In der Literatur wird ein Zusammenwirken multipler Faktoren bei der Pneumatisation des Warzenfortsatzes angenommen, wobei die Größe des Muskelhöckers von funktionellen, hormonellen und hereditären Faktoren beeinflußt werden soll. Zum Teil wird auch die Meinung vertreten, daß sein mechanisch entlasteter Innenraum je nach der „Kraft der Schleimhaut“ entweder von dieser oder von spongiösem Knochen in der Art einer „Verdrängungsreaktion“ ausgefüllt wird. Als Merkmal zur Individualidentifikation ist die Pneumatisation des Mastoides aufgrund unterschiedlicher, individualspezifischer Ausformung der Cellulae durchaus geeignet; eine Alters- und Geschlechtsidentifikation unbekannter Einzelstücke ist jedoch nicht möglich.
    Notes: Summary X-ray densitometry of 91 adult mastoid processes and their relationships to sex and age as well as to the volume of the processes was carried out. No relationship to age or sex could be determined, however, a small correlation with the volume (10%) was ascertained. The pneumatization of the mastoid process supposedly depends on multiple factors, particularly functional, hormonal and hereditary. Some, however, believe that mucous membrane or spongious bone occupy the inner spaces of the process, depending on a mutual “displacement reaction”. The mastoid process is suitable for individual identification on the basis of the specific structure of its air spaces. Age and sex determination is impossible using unknown single specimens.
