    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Enthusiasm for permanent pacing as a therapeutic option for patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and congestive heart failure (CHF) has waxed and waned since the early 1990‘s. The clinical results of standard dual-chamber pacing in these patients have been extraordinarily mixed, which can be attributed to small patient populations, marked heterogeneity of patients included, highly variable study designs and endpoints, and limited follow-up.  Although investigators have postulated some mechanisms for improvement, there is still a great deal to learn to be able to reliably predict which patients with DCM and/or CHF will respond to permanent pacing. Biventricular pacing is emerging as having the greatest potential for patients with congestive cardiomyopathy. Although data is somewhat limited, triple-chamber, and in some cases four-chamber pacing will be the focus of future interest.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Begeisterung für das permanente Pacing als therapeutische Option bei der dilatativen Kardiomyopathie (DCM) und bei der dekompensierten Herzinsuffizienz (CHF) hat seit den frühen 90er Jahren deutlich nachgelassen. Die klinischen Ergebnisse des üblichen Zweikammer-Pacings fielen bei diesen Patienten außergewöhnlich gemischt aus. Dies kann auf kleine Patientenpopulationen, eine ausgeprägte Heterogenität der teilnehmenden Patienten, auf eine große Variabilität der Studiendesigns und Endpunkte sowie auf eine begrenzte Nachbeobachtungszeit zurückgeführt werden.  Obwohl Wissenschaftler einige Mechanismen für eine Besserung postulieren, sind viele Punkte noch offen, bis man zuverlässig voraussagen kann, welche Patienten mit DCM und/oder CHF auf ein permanentes Pacing ansprechen werden.  Es scheint so als ob das Zweikammer-Pacing das größte Potential für Patienten mit dekompensierter Herzinsuffizienz bietet. Obwohl erst limitierte Daten zur Verfügung stehen, wird in Zukunft das Dreikammer-Pacing und in manchen Fällen das Vierkammer-Pacing von Interesse sei.

    Description: MOON (Mediterranean Operational Oceanography Network http://www.moon-oceanforecasting.eu) pro- vides near-real-time information on oil-spill detection (ocean color and SAR) and predictions [ocean fore- casts (MFS and CYCOFOS) and oil-spill predictions (MEDSLIK)]. We employ this system to study the Lebanese oil-pollution crisis in summer 2006 and thus to assist regional and local decision makers in Europe, regionally and locally. The MEDSLIK oil-spill predictions obtained using CYCOFOS high-resolution ocean fields are compared with those obtained using lower-resolution MFS hydrodynamics, and both are validated against satellite observations. The predicted beached oil distributions along the Lebanese and Syrian coasts are compared with in situ observations. The oil-spill predictions are able to simulate the northward movement of the oil spill, with the CYCO- FOS predictions being in better agreement with satellite observations. Among the free MEDSLIK param- eters tested in the sensitivity experiments, the drift factor appears to be the most relevant to improve the quality of the results.
    Description: The paper was produced using the INGV MFS forecasting-sys- tem product and the OC-UCY CYCOFOS forecasting-system prod- ucts. The MODIS satellite data products were processed at the GOS-CNR-ISAC Rome laboratory using the SeaDAS software devel- oped by NASA GSFC, Greenbelt, Maryland, the HDFLook software developed by The Laboratoire d’Optique Atmosphérique, Univer- sity of Lille, France, and the MS2GT tool box developed by the Uni- versity of Colorado. Procedures for oil-spill detection were developed in the ENVI environment. Processed ENVISAT-ASAR data were made available by Telespazio and JRC. Part of this work was carried out with the support of the PRIMI project (ASI Contract No. I/094/06/0) financed by the Italian Space Agency (ASI).
