Involuntary movement disorders are not a common presentation of basal ganglia ischemia which may be induced by cerebral hemodynamic insufficiency. In secondary causes of movements disorders cerebrovascular diseases represent up to 22% and involuntary movements develop after 1-4% of strokes. We describe a case of a middle-aged woman who presented with intermittent involuntary tonic spasms or seizure-like episodes followed by weakness due to contralateral putaminal infarction. Initially thought to have Todd's paralysis she was not thrombolysed, but later she developed dense hemiplegia. Flexor spasms are generally thought to occur in lesions of the spinal cord but they can also occur in cerebral lesion, may be because of disinhibition of the spinal cord. Certain other theories also have been narrated, but this field still needs to be worked upon.

At the end of the year 2013 the open access portal “German Medical Science” (gms) has attained a well-established stage of development documented by the number of published articles and abstracts and by the electronic visits to the portal. Meanwhile 3,208 articles and 46,800 abstracts have been published. The portal will this year integrate a section for electronic books, the first project pending will be the publication of a textbook for hand surgery. In the interdisciplinary journal “GMS German Medical Science”, 185 articles have been published to date. The journal is indexed in databases like BASE, DIMDI, EBSCO, Embase, MEDLINE, Medpilot, PubMed Central, etc. In 2014, the further development of the portal will be accompanied by a horizontal reorganization. The journal “GMSPsycho-Social-Medicine”, which has been published since 2004 as an independent journal, will merge into a special section of the interdisciplinary journal “GMS German Medical Science”. The reasons are mainly organisational and financial. The editorial board and the reviewer will remain active and hopefully the readers, too. Thus, beginning with January 2014 all manuscripts from the psychosocial field shall be submitted to “GMS German Medical Science”.
2013年底，开放获取门户网站"德国医学" (gms)已经达到了一个完善的发展阶段，这可以从发表的文章和摘要的数量以及对该门户网站的电子访问情况看出来。发表论文3208篇，摘要46800篇。今年，该门户网站将整合电子书部分，第一个悬而未决的项目将是出版一本手外科教科书。在跨学科期刊《GMS德国医学科学》上，迄今已发表185篇文章。期刊收录于BASE、DIMDI、EBSCO、Embase、MEDLINE、Medpilot、PubMed Central等数据库。2014年，门户网站的进一步发展将伴随着横向重组。自2004年以来作为独立期刊出版的《GMS心理-社会-医学》杂志将并入跨学科期刊《GMS德国医学科学》的一个专版。原因主要是组织和财务方面的。编委会和审稿人将保持活跃，希望读者也是如此。因此，从2014年1月开始，所有来自社会心理领域的手稿都应提交给“GMS German Medical Science”。

Anisospondyly (irregularly shaped vertebral bodies) and enchondroma-like lesions in the metaphyseal and diaphyseal portions of the long tubular bones are the characteristic features in patients with dysspondyloenchondromatosis (DSC). Thoraco-lumbar scoliosis and windswept deformity of the lower limbs were the major abnormalities encountered in this patient. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case report delineating the spine pathology via reformatted CT scan and the correction of a windswept deformity by means of temporary hemiepiphysiodesis in a patient with (DSC).

Ever since its launch in 2003, GMS German Medical Science benefits from the expertise of numerous reviewers. Their work is of highest value for the quality of the journal; they contribute anonymously, without remuneration and mostly in their spare time to a scientific open access journal. We would like to appreciate their efforts at least ideally at the beginning of the New Year. The editors, authors, readers and the editorial staff of GMS German Medical Science would like to express their sincere thanks to the following reviewers that supported us during the year 2010:
