Several studies have examined the independent effects of single diseases; however, little research has focused on interaction between diseases. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of six self-reported major conditions and their combinations on HRQL measured by the EQ-5D. Methods The EQ-5D was administered in the population-based KORA-Age study of 4,565 Germans aged 65 years or older. A generalised additive regression model was used to assess the effects of chronic conditions on HRQL and to account for the nonlinear associations with age and body mass index (BMI). Disease interactions were identified by a forward variable selection method. Results The conditions with the greatest negative impact on the EQ-5D index were the history of a stroke (regression coefficient -11.3, p < 0.0001) and chronic bronchitis (regression coefficient -8.1, p < 0.0001). Patients with both diabetes and coronary disorders showed more impaired HRQL than could be expected from their separate effects (coefficient of interaction term -8.1, p < 0.0001). A synergistic effect on HRQL was also found for the combination of coronary disorders and stroke. The effect of BMI on the mean EQ-5D index was inverse U-shaped with a maximum at around 24.8 kg/m2. Conclusions There are important interactions between coronary problems, diabetes mellitus, and the history of a stroke that negatively affect HRQL in the older German population. Not only high but also low BMI is associated with impairments in health status.

Mehrstufige Architekturen mit SQLJ und Enterprise JavaBeansTM 2.0 (Allgemein: Datenbanken) N2 - Mehrstufige Architekturen mit SQLJ und Enterprise JavaBeans Datenbankanbindung und Erstellung von Komponenten sind ein essentieller Bestandteil von Java-Anwendungen. Bei Java-Schnittstellen rückt der neue ANSI-Standard SQLJ für relationale und objektrelationale Datenbanken immer mehr in den Blickpunkt. Bei mehrstufigen Architekturen ist darüber hinaus die Komponentenbildung unabdingbar, und dabei entwickelt sich EJB zu einem De-facto-Standard. Nach einer grundlegenden Einführung geht es im zweiten Teil des Buches um Java-Schnittstellen zu Datenbanken: JDBC, ODMG und SQLJ8. Wie EJB-Komponenten erstellt werden und auf Java-Datenbanken zugreifen, wird im dritten Teil beschrieben.
