Measures of social distancing and personal risk avoidance had a societal positive effect on the frequency of facial injuries. This stands in contrast to the drastic increase in fractures of elderly people who should be protected primarily by the measures taken. These results can help to understand these influences better in future pandemics.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Trial registration<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>German Clinical Trials Register No: DRKS00032778.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10006-024-01248-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,10]],"date-time":"2024-04-10T22:01:41Z","timestamp":1712786501000},"page":"1241-1250","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on maxillofacial trauma surgery in Germany - implications from the national DRG database"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1777-6409","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Axel","family":"Meisgeier","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simon","family":"Pienkohs","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Moosdorf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andreas","family":"Neff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"1248_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"Wiersinga WJ, Rhodes A, Cheng AC, Peacock SJ, Prescott HC (2020) Pathophysiology, transmission, diagnosis, and treatment of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
