Sanders Classification

Code used for secondary structure assignments determined by PROCHECK v.3.5. (Laskowski el al., 1993) using the extended Kabsch/Sander classification (Kabsch and Sander, 1983) ... 

Fig. 16.2. Sanders classification based on CT images. The two images represent coronal and axial views. Type 1 fractures are nondisplaced and are not shown. Fracture lines A, B, and C describe the position of the primary fracture line in relation to the posterior facet and the subtalar joint. Line A divides the lateral from the central third of the calcaneum, line B divides the middle third from the medial third of the calcaneum and lines C the medial third from the sustentaculum. Types 11 and 111 fractures have two or three fragments, respectively, which are then subdivided, depending on the medial or lateral position of the primary fracture line Type IV fractures are severely comminuted. (Adapted from Sanders et al. 1993)...

Intra-articular fractures with less than 4 mm disruption of the facet joint and extra-articular fractures can be treated adequately with cast immobilisation for 4-6 weeks (Beaty and Kasser 2006) (Figs. 16.3,16.4). As predicted by Sanders classification, displaced intra-articular fractures are likely to require operative intervention. However, bone remodelling in children under 10 years of age can lead to a congruent subtalar... 

It is obvious, that matrix isolation spectroscopy is the method of choice for the study of carbenes. The large number of carbenes identified by matrix isolation illustrates the strength of this analytical tool, as demonstrated by an excellent review on this topic by Sander et al. in 199314. In this comprehensive article all the work carried out until that date has been summarized. The goal of our review is to report on our own contributions to this field and to complete Sander s overview — taking over his classification of individual carbenes — by results achieved by us in this subject matter during the most recent epoch.
