1. Effects of surface tension and elasticity on critical points of the Kirchhoff-Plateau problem

Author: Bevilacqua, Giulia and Lonati, Chiara
Subjects: Mathematics - Analysis of PDEs, FOS: Mathematics, Analysis of PDEs (math.AP), 49K10, 49Q05, 74G05, 74G55, 74P20
Abstract: We introduce a modified Kirchhoff-Plateau problem adding an energy term to penalize shape modifications of the cross-sections appended to the elastic midline. We prove the existence of minimizers applying the Direct Method of the Calculus of Variations. Then, choosing three different geometrical shapes for the cross-section, we derive Euler-Lagrange equations for a planar version of the Kirchhoff-Plateau problem. We show that in the physical range of the parameters, there exists a unique critical point satisfying the imposed constraints. Finally, we analyze the effects of the surface tension on the shape of the cross-sections at the equilibrium.

3. CHA2DS2‑VASc score stratifies mortality risk in heart failure patients aged 75 years and older with and without atrial fibrillation

Author: Sonaglioni Andrea, Lonati Chiara, Rigamonti Elisabetta, Viganò Mauro, Nicolosi Gian Luigi, Proietti Marco, Lombardo Michele, and Harari Sergio
Abstract: Background During the last decade, the CHA2DS2-VASc score has been associated with adverse clinical outcomes in several cardiovascular (CV) and non-cardiovascular diseases beyond atrial fibrillation (AF). Whether the CHA2DS2-VASc score stratifies mortality risk in elderly patients with AF and without AF is not well established. Methods All consecutive patients aged ≥ 75 yrs hospitalized due to heart failure (HF), between January 2020 and Novem- ber 2020, were retrospectively enrolled. All patients underwent physical examination, blood tests, electrocardiography and conventional transthoracic echocardiography. Primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, while secondary endpoint was the composite of all-cause mortality + rehospitalizations for all causes over mid-term follow-up. Results The study included 261 HF patients (86.3 ± 6.4 years, 60.5% females). 85 AF and 176 non-AF patients were sepa- rately analyzed. Compared to non-AF patients, those with AF had significantly higher CHA2DS2-VASc score (5.6 ± 1.4 vs 5.1 ± 1.4, p = 0.007) and lower ejection fraction (47.4 ± 16.5 vs 56.7 ± 15.1%, p < 0.001). Mean follow-up was 1.7 ± 0.5 yrs. During follow-up, 96 patients died (58.3% due to CV causes) and 79 were rehospitalized (58.2% due to CV causes). CHA2DS2-VASc score was independently associated with all-cause mortality in whole study population (HR 1.61, 95% CI 1.36–1.92) and in both AF (HR 1.41, 95% CI 1.09–1.82) and non-AF patients (HR 1.84, 95% CI 1.40–2.40). CHA2DS2-VASc score also predicted the secondary endpoint in the same study groups. CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 5 was the best cut-off valuefor predicting both outcomes. Conclusion At mid-term follow-up, a CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 5 predicts increased risk of all-cause mortality and re-hospi- talizations for all causes in elderly HF patients, regardless of AF.

Abstract: As a consequence of population aging, we have witnessed in internal medicine hospital wards a progressive shift from a population of in-patients relatively young and mainly affected by a single ailment to one of ever older and more and more complex patients with multiple chronic diseases, followed as out-patients by many different specialists with poor integration andinevitably treated with multiple medications. Polypharmacy (defined as the chronic intake of five or more drugs) is associated with increased risks of drug-drug interactions and related adverse effects, prescription and intake errors, poor compliance, re-hospitalization and mortality. With this background, the Italian Society of Internal Medicine chose to start in 2008 a prospective register called REPOSI (REgistro POliterapie SIMI, Società Italiana di Medicina Interna) in internal medicine and geriatric hospital wards. The country wide register is an ongoing observatory on multimorbidity and polypharmacy in the oldest old, with the goal to improve prescription appropriateness and, thus to avoid potentially inappropriate medications. The main findings of the register, that has accrued so far, 7005 older patients throughout a 10year period, are summarized herewith, with special emphasis on the main patterns of poor prescription appropriateness and related risks of adverse events.

Abstract: Currently, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) represents the fourth cause of death worldwide with significant economic burden. Comorbidities increase in number and severity with age and are identified as important determinants that influence the prognosis. In this observational study, we retrospectively analyzed data collected from the RePoSI register. We aimed to investigate comorbidities and outcomes in a cohort of hospitalized elderly patients with the clinical diagnosis of COPD. Socio-demographic, clinical characteristics and laboratory findings were considered. The association between variables and in-hospital, 3-month and 1-year follow-up were analyzed. Among 4696 in-patients, 932 (19.8%) had a diagnosis of COPD. Patients with COPD had more hospitalization, a significant overt cognitive impairment, a clinically significant disability and more depression in comparison with non-COPD subjects. COPD patients took more drugs, both at admission, in-hospital stay, discharge and 3-month and 1-year follow-up. 14 comorbidities were more frequent in COPD patients. Cerebrovascular disease was an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality. At 3-month follow-up, male sex and hepatic cirrhosis were independently associated with mortality. ICS-LABA therapy was predictor of mortality at in-hospital, 3-month and 1-year follow-up. This analysis showed the severity of impact of COPD and its comorbidities in the real life of internal medicine and geriatric wards.

Abstract: The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a predictor of important outcomes and its reduction has been associated with the risk of all-cause mortality in both general population and elderly patients. However while reduced renal function is common in older people, the best method for estimating GFR remains unclear, especially in an acute care setting. Most studies analyzing the accuracy of eGFR in the elderly were carried out in different heterogeneous settings. In this study, we compare the prognostic value of different formulas estimating GFR in predicting the risk of in-hospital morbidity and mortality within 3 months from discharge in elderly hospitalized patients. Data were extracted from “Registro Politerapia Societa Italiana di Medicina Interna (REPOSI)”. Patients with available creatinine values at hospital admission were selected and eGFR was calculated according to the different formulas: Cockcroft-Gault, Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation, Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration, Berlin Initiative Study and Full Age Spectrum. 4621 patients were included in the analysis. Among these, 4.2% and 14.2% died during hospitalization and within 3 months from discharge, respectively. eGFR > 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 at admission was associated with a very low risk of mortality during the hospital stay and within 90 days from discharge, while an eGFR

Abstract: Background: The RePoSi study has provided data on comorbidities, polypharmacy, and sex dimorphism in hospitalised elderly patients. Methods: We retrospectively analysed data collected from the 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2016 data sets of the RePoSi register. The aim of this study was to explore the sex-differences and to validate the multivariate model in the entire dataset with an expanded follow-up at 1 year. Results: Among 4714 patients, 51% were women and 49% were men. The disease distribution showed that diabetes, coronary artery disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, and malignancy were more frequent in men but that hypertension, anaemia, osteoarthritis, depression, and diverticulitis disease were more common in women. Severity and comorbidity indexes according to the Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS-s and CIRS-c) were higher in men, while cognitive impairment, mood disorders, and disability in daily life measured by the Barthel Index (BI) were worse in women. In the multivariate analysis, BI, CIRS, and malignancy significantly increased the risk of death in men at the 1-year follow-up, while age was independently associated with mortality in women. Conclusions: Our study highlighted the relevance and the validity of our previous predictive model in the identification of sex dimorphism in hospitalised elderly patients underscoring the need of sex-personalised health-care.

Abstract: Chronic pain is a frequent characteristic of elderly people and represents an actual and still poorly debated topic.We investigated pain prevalence and intensity, and its pharmacological therapy in elderly patients hospitalized in 101 internal medicine wards.Taking advantage of the "REgistro POliterapie Società Italiana Medicina Interna" (REPOSI), we collected 2535 patients of whom almost a quarter was older than 85 years old. Among them, 582 patients were affected by pain (either chronic or acute) and 296 were diagnosed with chronic pain.Patients with pain showed worse cognitive status, higher depression and comorbidities, and a longer duration of hospital stay compared to those without pain (all p .0366). Patients with chronic pain revealed lower level of independency in their daily life, worse cognitive status and higher level of depression compared to acute pain patients (all p .0156). Moreover, most of them were not treated for pain at admission (73.4%) and half of them was not treated with any analgesic drug at discharge (50.5%). This difference affected also the reported levels of pain intensity. Patients who received analgesics at both admission and discharge remained stable (p = .172). Conversely, those not treated at admission who received an analgesic treatment during the hospital stay decreased their perceived pain (p .0001).Our results show the need to focus more attention on the pharmacological treatment of chronic pain, especially in hospitalized elderly patients, in order to support them and facilitate their daily life after hospital discharge.

11. DOSAGGIO DIRETTO DELLA RENINA CON METODICA CHEMILUMINOMETRICA:CONFRONTO CON LA TECNICA ENZIMATICA ED UTILIZZO NELLO SCREENINGDELL�IPERALDOSTERONISMO PRIMITIVO

Author: LONATI, CHIARA
Abstract: Background: Direct plasma renin concentration determined with chemiluminometric immunoassay (CliR, mU/l) is progressively replacing plasma renin activity (PRA, ng/ml/h) for clinical use but the conversion factors (CF) between the two methods are still unsettled as well as their influence on the calculation of aldosterone/renin ratio (ARRD and ARRP). Methods: CliR, PRA and aldosterone (A, ng/dl) were measured in plasma samples collected in the supine position (S) and after 1 hour of active standing (AS) in 88 patients with essential hypertension (EH) on treatment with various antihypertensive drugs including ACEIs and ARBs. The same determinations were made in S in 10 patients with primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA) due to adrenal adenoma histologically confirmed. Results: In EH the median values (range) of CliR in S and AS were 18 (2-255) and 28 (4-471) respectively, the corresponding values of PRA being 0.6 (0.2-11.2) and 1.3 (0.3-16.0). Supine and upright CliR and PRA were highly correlated with a Spearman rs of 0.85 and 0.84 respectively. The linear non parametric Passing-Bablok regression on all logarithmic values in S and AS gave a slope of 1.01, an intercept of 3.2 and a CF of 24.6 between PRA and CliR on the natural scale. In EH the median values (range) of A in S and AS were 7.8 (0.3-31) and 18.4 (2.3-60). In PHA patients the median values of CliR, PRA and A in S were 0.8 (0.2-10.2), 0.1 (0.1-0.6) and 36.8 (11.8-122). In EH the median values of ARRD in S and AS were 0.4 (0.01-3) and 0.5 (0.02-7.8) respectively, the corresponding values of ARRP being 12 (0-71) and 13 (0-80). ARRD and ARRP were strongly correlated, with an rs of 0.88 and 0.92 in S and AS respectively. The regression analysis of all logarithmic values in S and AS showed a slope of 1.12, an intercept of -3.53 and a CF of 0.03 between ARRP and ARRD on the natural scale. In PHA patients the median value of ARRD in S was 34 (2.8-244) and that of ARRP 298 (48-1222). Assuming as cut-off values of normalcy those recommended by guidelines (Funder et al, JCEM 2008; 93: 3266) i.e. 30 for ARRP and 3.7 for ARRD, there were 13 false positives in S and 18 in AS for ARRP with a specificity of 0.85 (CI95% 0.76-0.92) and of 0.78 (0.68-0.87) respectively while with ARRD there were only 0 and 4 false positives with a specificity of 1 (0.96-1) and of 0.95 (0.88-0.99). Conclusions: In EH on treatment CliR and PRA, as well as ARRD and ARRP, are highly correlated. However, using the conventional cut-off values, for the diagnosis of PHA the specificity of ARRD is better than that of ARRP. Moreover the specificity of ARRD appears to be minimally affected by antihypertensive treatment.

Abstract: Presently, major guidelines do not provide specific recommendations on oncologic surveillance for patients who harbor variant histology (VH) bladder cancer (BCa) at radical cystectomy. We aimed to create a personalized followup scheme that dynamically weighs other cause mortality (OCM) vs the risk of recurrence for VH BCa, and to compare it with a similar one for pure urothelial carcinoma (pUC).Within a multi-institutional registry, 528 and 1,894 patients with VH BCa and pUC, respectively, were identified. The Weibull regression was used to detect the time points after which the risk of OCM exceeded the risk of recurrence during followup. The risk of OCM over time was stratified based on age and comorbidities, and the risk of recurrence on pathological stage and recurrence site.Individuals with VH had a higher risk of recurrence (recurrence-free survival 30% vs 51% at 10 years, p0.001) and shorter median time to recurrence (88 vs 123 months, p0.01) relative to pUC. Among VH, micropapillary variant conferred the greatest risk of recurrence on the abdomen and lungs, and mixed variants carried the greatest risk of metastasizing to bones and other sites compared to pUC. Overall, surveillance should be continued for a longer time for individuals with VH BCa. Notably, patients younger than 60 years with VH and pT0/Ta/T1/N0 at radical cystectomy should continue oncologic surveillance after 10 years vs 6.5 years for pUC individuals.VH BCa is associated with greater recurrence risk than pUC. A followup scheme that is valid for pUC should not be applied to individuals with VH. Herein, we present a personalized approach for surveillance that may allow an improved shared decision.

Abstract: Background Correct identification of variant histologies (VHs) of bladder cancer (BCa) at transurethral resection of the bladder (TURB) could drive the subsequent treatment. Objective To evaluate the concordance in detecting VHs between TURB and radical cystectomy (RC) specimens in BCa patients. Design, setting, and participants We retrospectively analyzed 1881 BCa patients who underwent TURB and subsequent RC at seven tertiary care centers between 1980 and 2018. VHs were classified as sarcomatoid, lymphoepithelioma-like, neuroendocrine, squamous, micropapillary, glandular, adenocarcinoma, nested, and other variants. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis Concordance between TURB and RC was defined as the ability to achieve histological subtypes at TURB confirmed at RC specimen, and was expressed according to Cohen’s kappa coefficient. Results and limitations Of the patients, 14.6% and 21% were diagnosed with VH at TURB and RC specimens, respectively. The most common VHs at TURB were squamous, neuroendocrine, and micropapillary carcinoma (5.2%, 1.5%, and 1.5%, respectively). At RC, the most frequent VHs were squamous, micropapillary, and sarcomatoid carcinoma (7.2%, 3.0%, and 2.7%, respectively). The overall concordance in detecting VH was defined as slight concordance (coefficient: 0.18). Moderate concordance was found for neuroendocrine, adenocarcinoma, and squamous carcinoma (coefficient: 0.49, 0.47, and 0.41, respectively). Micropapillary, glandular, and other variants showed slight concordance (coefficient: 0.05, 0.17, and 0.12, respectively), while nested and sarcomatoid carcinoma showed fair concordance (coefficient: 0.32 and 0.26, respectively). Results may be limited by the absence of centralized pathological analysis. Conclusions A non-negligible percentage of patients were diagnosed with VH at both TURB and RC. TURB showed relatively low accuracy, ranging from poor to moderate, in detecting VHs. Our study underlines the need of additional diagnostic tools in order to identify VHs properly at precystectomy time and to improve patient survival outcomes. Patient summary In this report, we underlined the low accuracy of transurethral resection of the bladder in detecting variant histologies and the need for additional diagnostic tools.

Abstract: Context: Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) represents the third most frequent malignancy in Lynch syndrome (LS). Objective: To systematically review the available literature focused on incidence, diagnosis, clinicopathological features, oncological outcomes, and screening protocols for UTUC among LS patients. Evidence acquisition: Medline, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews were searched up to May 2021. Risk of bias was determined using the modified Cochrane tool. A narrative synthesis was undertaken. Evidence synthesis: Overall, 43 studies between 1996 and 2020 were included. LS patients exhibited a 14-fold increased risk of UTUC compared with the general population, which further increased to 75-fold among hMSH2 mutation carriers. Patients younger than 65 yr and patients with personal or family history of LS-related cancers should be referred to molecular testing on tumour specimen and subsequent genetic testing to confirm LS. Newly diagnosed LS patients may benefit from a multidisciplinary management team including gastroenterologist and gynaecologist specialists, while genetic counselling should be recommended to first-degree relatives (FDRs). Compared with sporadic UTUC individuals, LS patients were significantly younger (p = 0.005) and exhibited a prevalent ureteral location (p = 0.01). Radical nephroureterectomy was performed in 75% of patients (5-yr cancer-specific survival: 91%). No consensus on screening protocols for UTUC was achieved: starting age varied between 25-35 and 50 yr, while urinary cytology showed sensitivity of 29% and was not recommended for screening. Conclusions: Urologists should recognise patients at high risk for LS and address them to a comprehensive diagnostic pathway, including molecular and genetic testing. Newly diagnosed LS patients should be referred to a multidisciplinary team, while genetic counselling should be recommended to FDRs. Patient summary: In this systematic review, we analysed the existing literature focused on upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) among patients with Lynch syndrome (LS). Our purpose is to provide a comprehensive overview of LS-related UTUC to reduce misdiagnosis and improve patient prognosis.

Abstract: Background Literature lacks clear evidence regarding the optimal treatment for non–muscle-invasive micropapillary bladder cancer (MPBC) due to its rarity and the presence of only small sample size and single-centre studies. Objective To assess cancer-specific mortality (CSM) and overall mortality (OM) between immediate radical cystectomy (RC) and conservative management among T1 high-grade (HG) MPBC. Design, setting, and participants We retrospectively analysed a multicentre dataset including 119 T1 HG MPBC patients treated between 2005 and 2019 at 15 tertiary referral centres. The median follow-up time was 35 mo (interquartile range: 19–64). Intervention Patients underwent immediate RC versus conservative management with bacillus Calmette-Guerin. Outcomes measurements and statistical analysis Cumulative incidence functions and Kaplan-Meier methods were applied to estimate survival outcomes. Multivariable Cox analyses were performed to assess independent predictors of disease recurrence and disease progression after conservative management; covariates consisted of pure MPBC, concomitant lymphovascular invasion (LVI), and carcinoma in situ at initial diagnosis. Results and limitations Immediate RC and conservative management were performed in 27% and 73% of patients, respectively. CSM and OM did not differ significantly among patient treated with immediate RC versus conservative management (Pepe-Mori test p = 0.5 and log-rank test p = 0.9, respectively). Overall, 66.7% and 34.5% of patients experienced disease recurrence and disease progression after conservative management, respectively. At multivariable Cox analyses, concomitant LVI was an independent predictor of disease recurrence (p = 0.01) and progression (p = 0.03), while pure MPBC was independently associated with disease progression (p = 0.03). The absence of a centralised re-review and the retrospective design represent the main limitations of our study. Conclusions Conservative management could achieve satisfactory results among T1 HG MPBC patients with neither pure MPBC nor LVI at initial diagnosis. Patient summary Bacillus Calmette-Guerin seems to be an effective therapy for T1 micropapillary bladder cancer patients with neither pure micropapillary disease nor lymphovascular invasion at initial diagnosis.

Abstract: Objectives We aimed to analyze the prevalence and impact of COPD in older patients hospitalized in internal medicine or geriatric wards, and to investigate adherence to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines, associated clinical factors, and outcomes. Design Data were obtained from REgistro POliterapie SIMI (REPOSI), a prospective multicenter observational registry that enrolls inpatients aged ≥65 years. Setting and Participants Older hospitalized patients enrolled from 2008 to 2016 with a diagnosis of COPD. Measures We evaluated adherence to the 2018 GOLD guidelines at admission and discharge, by examining the prescription of inhaled bronchodilators and corticosteroids in COPD patients. We also evaluated the occurrence of outcomes and its association with COPD and guideline adherence. Results At hospital admission, COPD was diagnosed in 1302 (21.5%) of 6046 registered patients. COPD patients were older, with more impaired clinical and functional status and multiple comorbidities. Overall, 34.3% of COPD patients at admission and 35.6% at discharge were adherent to the GOLD guidelines. Polypharmacy (≥5 drugs) at admission [odds ratio (OR): 3.28, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.24-4.81], a history of acute COPD exacerbation (OR: 2.65, 95% CI: 1.44-4.88) at admission, smoking habit (OR: 1.45, 95% CI: 1.08-1.94), and polypharmacy at discharge (OR: 6.76, 95% CI: 4.15-11.0) were associated with adherence to guidelines. COPD was independently associated with the risk of cardiovascular and respiratory death and rehospitalization occurrence compared to patients without COPD during follow-up. Adherence to guidelines was inversely associated with the occurrence of death from all causes (OR: 0.12, 95% CI: 0.02-0.90). Conclusions/Implications COPD was common in older patients acutely hospitalized, showing an impaired functional and clinical status. Prescriptions for older COPD patients were often not adherent to GOLD guidelines. Poor adherence to guidelines was associated with a worse clinical status. There is a need to improve adherence to guidelines in treating COPD patients, with the ultimate goal of reducing clinical events.

Abstract: Introduction: The prevalence of systemic arterial hypertension in young adults is increasing worldwide in association with modifiable risk factors. Aim: To assess the prevalence of high blood pressure (BP) in young adults participating to a screening campaign during the World Hypertension Day (17/05/2014), and to determine the possible association with lifestyle factors. Methods: 493 individuals aged 18–35 years were selected in 13 Italian cities. All participants underwent BP measurement together with the administration of a questionnaire exploring: medical and drug history; traditional cardiovascular risk factors and diseases; dietary pattern; salt intake; sleep habits; mood disorders. Results: High BP (≥140/90 mmHg) was found in 54 individuals, with a prevalence of 11 % and awareness of 28 %. Those with high BP values were more frequently men, reported a higher BMI and a greater use of corticosteroids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and had a lower anxiety score. Concerning dietary habits, they were more likely to eat cheese/cold cuts ≥3 times/week, to have their meals out ≥1/day and to eat in fast foods ≥1/week. In the multiple logistic regression analysis, male sex [OR 3.19, 95 % CI (1.33–7.63)], BMI [OR 1.14 95 % CI (1.04–1.25)], eating in fast foods [OR 3.10 95 % CI (1.21–7.95)], and anxiety [OR 0.85 95 % CI (0.75–0.97)], were independently associated with high BP. Conclusions: High BP values were found in 11 % young adults. Male sex, adiposity and alimentary habits were the main determinants of high BP values, indicating that young men are a suitable target for healthy lifestyle interventions.

Abstract: Introduction: At this time, good quality randomized clinical trials assessing the effects of vitamin D supplementation on cardiometabolic outcomes are lacking in the international literature. Aim: To fill this gap, the Working Group on Vitamin D and Cardiorenal Disorders established jointly by the Italian Society of Hypertension (SIIA) and the Forum in Bone and Mineral Research conceived the HYPODD study (HYPOvitaminosis D and organ Damage). Methods: HYPODD is a no-profit multicenter 12-month parallel-group double-blind placebo controlled randomized trial aiming to assess the effects of cholecalciferol supplementation on blood pressure control, antihypertensive drugs consumption and progression of target organ damage in patients with essential hypertension and 25-hydroxyvitamin D serum level lower than 20 ng/ml (vitamin D deficiency). HYPODD is coordinated by the European Society Excellence Center of Hypertension of Federico II University, Naples, and involves 12 academic institutions in Italy (Ancona, Milan, Padua, Perugia, Rome, Siena, Trieste, Turin, Udine, Varese, and Verona). Results and conclusion: The HYPODD study has been registered at the Agenzia Italiana del Farmaco-Osservatorio sulla Sperimentazione Clinica del Farmaco (AIFA-OsSC) and EUDRACT sites (n° 2012-003514-14) and has been approved by the Ethical Committees of all the Centers involved in the study. The patients' recruitment is currently underway.
