Erectile Dysfunction
The basic principles of the phenomenon "erection" have been known since the pioneering work of Kolliker, Eckhard and Langley in the nineteenth century. Nonetheless, under the influence of Freud, erectile dysfunction was predominantly at tributed to psychogenic factors. A more liberal perception of sexuality since the 1960s, the development of new and refined diagnostic techniques, and the expansion of basic research activity resulted in a new concept of erectile dysfunction, identifying arteriogenic, venogenic, endocrinologic or myopathic (cavernous smooth muscle dysfunction) factors. From this research other considerations such as autonomic innervation, cavernous endo thelial intactness or ...

Biochemical, Pharmacological, and Clinical Aspects of Nitric Oxide
A decade ago, for most scientists investigating various issues in life sciences the word "NO" was used in a negative context. It is astounding to observe how recently researchers are addressing the issue of NO, namely, nitric oxide, in over fifty publications weekly. Science journal, while naming nitric oxide: "Molecule of the Year" (December 1992), said it all: "NO news is good news. " For a long period of time NO was considered as a pollutant and every ecology minded person tried to eliminate it.

Medizinische Fachgesellschaften im Nationalsozialismus
In den letzten Jahren hat sich die medizinhistorische Forschung verstärkt mit der Aufarbeitung der Geschichte verschiedener medizinischer Fachgesellschaften in der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus beschäftigt. Dabei stehen der Umgang mit jüdischen Kollegen und Mitgliedern, die Gleichschaltung oder Selbstgleichschaltung, die inhaltliche Ausrichtung des jeweiligen Faches sowie die Karrierekontinuitäten führender Mitglieder nach dem Ende des "Dritten Reiches" ebenso im Fokus wie der Umgang mit der eigenen Geschichte und die Aufarbeitung nach 1945. Der vorliegende Sammelband möchte einen weitgespannten und fundierten Überblick über laufende Projekte und aktuelle Ergebnisse geben und diese in vergleichender Perspektive für zukünftige Forschungen erschließen.
