Abstract

Background: Delirium is thought to be common across various settings of care; however, still little research has been conducted in rehabilitation. Aim: We investigated the prevalence of delirium, its features and motor subtypes in older patients admitted to rehabilitation facilities during the three editions of the “Delirium Day project”. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in which 1237 older patients (age ≥ 65 years old) admitted to 50 Italian rehabilitation wards during the three editions of the “Delirium Day project” (2015 to 2017) were included. Delirium was evaluated through the 4AT and its motor subtype with the Delirium Motor Subtype Scale. Results: Delirium was detected in 226 patients (18%), and the most recurrent motor subtype was mixed (37%), followed by hypoactive (26%), hyperactive (21%) and non-motor one (16%). In a multivariate Poisson regression model with robust variance, factors associated with delirium were: disability in basic (PR 1.48, 95%CI: 1.17–1.9, p value 0.001) and instrumental activities of daily living (PR 1.58, 95%CI: 1.08–2.32, p value 0.018), dementia (PR 2.10, 95%CI: 1.62–2.73, p value < 0.0001), typical antipsychotics (PR 1.47, 95%CI: 1.10–1.95, p value 0.008), antidepressants other than selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (PR 1.3, 95%CI: 1.02–1.66, p value 0.035), and physical restraints (PR 2.37, 95%CI: 1.68–3.36, p value < 0.0001). Conclusion: This multicenter study reports that 2 out 10 patients admitted to rehabilitations had delirium on the index day. Mixed delirium was the most prevalent subtype. Delirium was associated with unmodifiable (dementia, disability) and modifiable (physical restraints, medications) factors. Identification of these factors should prompt specific interventions aimed to prevent or mitigate delirium.

Abstract

Background: Delirium is thought to be common across various settings of care; however, still little research has been conducted in rehabilitation. Aim: We investigated the prevalence of delirium, its features and motor subtypes in older patients admitted to rehabilitation facilities during the three editions of the “Delirium Day project”. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in which 1237 older patients (age ≥ 65 years old) admitted to 50 Italian rehabilitation wards during the three editions of the “Delirium Day project” (2015 to 2017) were included. Delirium was evaluated through the 4AT and its motor subtype with the Delirium Motor Subtype Scale. Results: Delirium was detected in 226 patients (18%), and the most recurrent motor subtype was mixed (37%), followed by hypoactive (26%), hyperactive (21%) and non-motor one (16%). In a multivariate Poisson regression model with robust variance, factors associated with delirium were: disability in basic (PR 1.48, 95%CI: 1.17–1.9, p value 0.001) and instrumental activities of daily living (PR 1.58, 95%CI: 1.08–2.32, p value 0.018), dementia (PR 2.10, 95%CI: 1.62–2.73, p value < 0.0001), typical antipsychotics (PR 1.47, 95%CI: 1.10–1.95, p value 0.008), antidepressants other than selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (PR 1.3, 95%CI: 1.02–1.66, p value 0.035), and physical restraints (PR 2.37, 95%CI: 1.68–3.36, p value < 0.0001). Conclusion: This multicenter study reports that 2 out 10 patients admitted to rehabilitations had delirium on the index day. Mixed delirium was the most prevalent subtype. Delirium was associated with unmodifiable (dementia, disability) and modifiable (physical restraints, medications) factors. Identification of these factors should prompt specific interventions aimed to prevent or mitigate delirium.

Abstract

Introduction Delirium and sarcopenia are common, although underdiagnosed, geriatric syndromes. Several pathological mechanisms can link delirium and low skeletal muscle mass, but few studies have investigated their association. We aimed to investigate (1) the association between delirium and low skeletal muscle mass and (2) the possible role of calf circumference mass in finding cases with delirium. Methods The analyses were conducted employing the cross-sectional “Delirium Day” initiative, on patient 65 years and older admitted to acute hospital medical wards, emergency departments, rehabilitation wards, nursing homes and hospices in Italy in 2017. Delirium was diagnosed as a 4 + score at the 4-AT scale. Low skeletal muscle mass was operationally defined as calf circumference ≤ 34 cm in males and ≤ 33 cm in females. Logistic regression models were used to investigate the association between low skeletal muscle mass and delirium. The discriminative ability of calf circumference was evaluated using non-parametric ROC analyses. Results A sample of 1675 patients was analyzed. In total, 73.6% of participants had low skeletal muscle mass and 24.1% exhibited delirium. Low skeletal muscle mass and delirium showed an independent association (OR: 1.50; 95% CI 1.09–2.08). In the subsample of patients without a diagnosis of dementia, the inclusion of calf circumference in a model based on age and sex significantly improved its discriminative accuracy [area under the curve (AUC) 0.69 vs 0.57, p Discussion and conclusion Low muscle mass is independently associated with delirium. In patients without a previous diagnosis of dementia, calf circumference may help to better identify those who develop delirium.

Abstract

Objectives Delirium is commonly seen in older adults with multimorbidity, during a hospitalization, resulting from the interplay between predisposing factors such as advanced age, frailty, and dementia, and a series of precipitating factors. The association between delirium and specific multimorbidity is largely unexplored so far although of potential key relevance for targeted interventions. The aim of the study was to check for a potential association of multimorbidity with delirium in a large cohort of older patients hospitalized for an acute medical or surgical condition. Design This is a cross-sectional study nested in the 2017 Delirium Day project. Setting and Participants The study includes 1829 hospitalized patients (age: 81.8, SD: 5.5). Of them, 419 (22.9%) had delirium. Methods Sociodemographic and medical history were collected. The 4AT was used to assess the presence of delirium. The Charlson Comorbidity index was used to assess multimorbidity. Results The results identified neurosensorial multimorbidity as the most prevalent, including patients with dementia, cerebrovascular diseases, and sensory impairments. In light of the highest co-occurrence of 3 neurosensorial chronic conditions, we could hypothesize that a baseline altered brain functional and neural connectivity might determine the vulnerability signature for incipient overall system disruption in presence of acute insults. Conclusions and Implications Eventually, our findings moved a step forward in supporting the key importance of routine screening for sensory impairments and cognitive status of older patients for the highest risk of in-hospital delirium. In fact, preventive interventions could be particularly relevant and effective in preventing delirium in such vulnerable populations and might help refining this early diagnosis.

Abstract

Background although frailty and delirium are among the most frequent and burdensome geriatric syndromes, little is known about their association and impact on short-term mortality. Objective to examine, in hospitalized older persons, whether frailty is associated with delirium, and whether these two conditions, alone or in combination, affect these patients’ 30-day survival. Design observational study nested in the Delirium Day project, with 30-day follow-up. Setting acute medical wards (n = 118) and rehabilitation wards (n = 46) in Italy. Subjects a total of 2,065 individuals aged 65+ years hospitalized in acute medical (1,484 patients, 71.9%) or rehabilitation (581 patients, 28.1%) wards. Methods a 25-item Frailty Index (FI) was created. Delirium was assessed using the 4AT test. Vital status was ascertained at 30 days. Results overall, 469 (22.7%) patients experienced delirium on the index day and 82 (4.0%) died during follow-up. After adjustment for potential confounders, each FI score increase of 0.1 significantly increased the odds of delirium (odds ratio, OR: 1.66 [95% CI: 1.45–1.90]), with no difference between the acute (OR: 1.65 [95% CI: 1.41–1.93]) and rehabilitation ward patients (OR: 1.71 [95% CI: 1.27–2.30]). The risk of dying during follow-up also increased significantly for every FI increase of 0.1 in the overall population (OR: 1.65 [95% CI: 1.33–2.05]) and in the acute medical ward patients (OR: 1.61 [95% CI: 1.28–2.04]), but not in the rehabilitation patients. Delirium was not significantly associated with 30-day mortality in either hospital setting. Conclusions in hospitalized older patients, frailty is associated with delirium and with an increased risk of short-term mortality.

Abstract

I disturbi comportamentali delle demenze (BPSD) accompagnano la storia naturale di queste malattie sin dall’esordio, con vesti diverse che vanno dalle sindromi nevrotiche a quelle psicotiche vere e proprie. Si distinguono alterazioni dell’umore in senso ansioso-depressivo, del ritmo sonno-veglia, facile irritabilità e sintomi psicotici veri e propri con deliri e allucinazioni, disturbi di personalità e agitazione psicomotoria, comportamenti specifici quali aggressività, vocalizzi persistenti e perseverazioni. La prevalenza è elevata e variabile a seconda della tipologia della demenza, del momento storico della sua evoluzione, del setting in cui il paziente è gestito; la loro entità non sempre è correlabile alla gravità della patologia dementigena. Presentiamo il caso di una paziente di anni 80, presa in carico nel 2012 presso il nostro Centro per i Disturbi Cognitivi e le Demenze.

Abstract

L’invecchiamento della popolazione è un fenomeno globale, che si caratterizza soprattutto per la presenza di patologie cronico-degenerative che incidono sulla qualità della vita delle persone anziane e che causano un notevole incremento dei costi per le cure e per l’assistenza. Per fronteggiare tale fenomeno globale, che riguarda da vicino l’Italia, l’Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità (OMS) ha messo a punto un piano che ha come obiettivo primario “l’invecchiamento attivo” (active ageing), cioè incentivare il passaggio da politiche incentrate sui bisogni delle persone anziane, considerate abitualmente come soggetti passivi, a politiche che riconoscano l’anziano come parte attiva della vita familiare e comunitaria. I tre pilastri su cui si fonda tale strategia sono salute, partecipazione e sicurezza delle persone anziane. A tale modello dell’OMS fa riferimento “Passi d’Argento”, sistema di sorveglianza e di monitoraggio della qualità della vita della popolazione italiana di età superiore a 65 anni, avviato dal Ministero della Salute con la collaborazione della Regione Umbria e del Centro Nazionale di Epidemiologia, Sorveglianza e Promozione della Salute (CNESPS) dell’Istituto Superiore di Sanità e che ha coinvolto 19 tra Regioni e Province Autonome italiane, tra cui la Sicilia.

Abstract

L’incremento della vita media raggiunto ai nostri giorni presenta nuove sfide, di carattere socio-politico e sanitario, che attendono risposte puntuali e tempestive. Lo stravolgimento demografico, inevitabilmente, si accompagna ad una transizione epidemiologica risultante nella netta prevalenza di patologie cronico-degenerative a genesi multifattoriale, ed in parte secondaria alla presenza di numerosi fattori di rischio modificabili (sedentarietà, cattive abitudini alimentari, fumo ed abuso di alcol) la cui correzione, a tutte le età, è fondamentale per il raggiungimento di un invecchiamento di successo. Ponendo l’attenzione sui benefici dell’incremento dell’attività fisica si può evidenziare come questa, in particolare, è un fattore protettivo, associato alla riduzione dei valori di pressione arteriosa e l’incidenza di coronaropatie; aumenta il colesterolo HDL, riduce il grasso corporeo e viscerale e l’insorgenza del diabete mellito di tipo 2 (riduzione dell’insulino-resistenza); diminuisce le affezioni a carico del distretto osteo-muscolare come artrosi ed osteoporosi (aumenta la massa ossea) limitando l’incidenza delle cadute; tende a contrastare l’insorgenza delle patologie neoplastiche (stimolando la funzione immunitaria); agisce migliorando il tono dell’umore ed evitando l’isolamento sociale. Risultato finale è il mantenimento dell’autosufficienza e dell’autonomia con aumento della longevità in uno stato di benessere psicofisico. L’impegno crescente deve essere quindi la ricerca ed ottimizzazione continua di sistemi finalizzati alla rilevazione dei “bisogni” degli over-65, al fine di mantenere un’idonea qualità di vita anche negli anziani pluripatologici.

Abstract

L’aumento della vita media, e quindi l’invecchiamento della popolazione, si caratterizza per la presenza di patologie cronico-degenerative che influenzano la qualità di vita. Per tale motivo è fondamentale mettere in atto delle risposte globali ed efficaci incentrate sui bisogni delle persone più anziane, in quanto soggetti non passivi, ma aventi il diritto e la responsabilità di partecipare attivamente alla vita della comunità in ogni fase dell’esistenza. A tal proposito il Ministero della Salute, in collaborazione con la regione Umbria e il Centro Nazionale di Epidemiologia, Sorveglianza e Promozione della Salute (CNESPS), ha dato vita a “PASSI D’ARGENTO”, un sistema di monitoraggio della qualità di vita della popolazione ultrasessantacinquenne, finalizzato alla programmazione di interventi socio-sanitari mirati ad incidere positiva-mente sulla salute e sulla qualità di vita dei cittadini anziani. La sorveglianza epidemiologica di popolazione “Passi d’Argento”, grazie all’ausilio di una metodologia standardizzata, ha permesso, inoltre, di confrontare lo stato di salute e l’invecchiamento attivo nelle diverse regioni italiane. Tra i problemi e gli aspetti di salute della popolazione con più di 65 anni è stata presa in con-siderazione la depressione, patologia psichiatrica molto frequente che incide sulla disabilità, porta ad un peggioramento delle relazioni sociali con tendenza all’isolamento, e si collega con un aumento dei costi diretti e indiretti per l’intera società. In molti casi è sottostimata in quanto la perdita d’interesse, il sentimento di tristezza e la sensazione di vuoto vengono considerati “tipi-ci” dell’età avanzata. Passi d’Argento ha posto l’attenzione sui sintomi della depressione e sul rischio di isolamento, considerandoli come indicatori che descrivono la condizione di salute della popolazione ultrasessantacinquenne.

Abstract

In Italia l’aumento costante del numero degli anziani è una realtà correlata al miglioramento delle condizioni di vita. Ma ciò porta con sé anche un carico economico e sociale importante in relazione all’aumento delle malattie cronico-degenerative. Per tale motivo l’Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità ha messo a punto una linea strategica denominata “active ageing” al fine di rafforzare le condizioni per un “invecchiamento attivo” le cui basi sono da costruire ben prima dell’età anziana. L’alimentazione è un cardine imprescindibile nel determinismo dell’invecchiamento di successo.

Abstract

The white sea bream, Diplodus sargus (Teleostei, Sparidae), is a species with a high commercial importance in Mediterranean aquaculture. There is currently little information available about the genetic characteristics of cultured populations. In this survey, we have developed eight polymorphic microsatellites for the white sea bream using an enriched genome library protocol. All of them were polymorphic in the 67 individuals tested, 32 of which were wild specimens, and 35 were individuals from a captive F1 broodstock. These markers can potentially be useful tools for use in population genetic studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction Rupture of the plantar fascia is a rare condition. It can also occur spontaneously and with no history of disease of the plantar fascia, above all in athletes. This review aims to systematically analyze all cases described in the literature regarding the rupture of the plantar fascia, evaluating incidence, risk factors, and treatments, considering which procedures show the best outcomes and the highest success rate. Materials and methods A systematic review of PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane review computerized databases was performed, focusing on articles about cases of rupture of the plantar fascia; 18 studies fulfilled all the criteria and were analyzed. There were no randomized controlled trials. Results A total of 155 patients (157 foot) were included in this systematic review. Considering all the studies included, 12 patients had a spontaneous rupture, 138 patients had a diagnosis of plantar fasciitis, and 130 patients were treated with local injections of corticosteroid before the rupture. Only 2 cases of bilateral rupture were reported. In all, 15 studies reported conservative treatment, with a total of 154 patients (156 feet) included. Operative treatment was reported in 3 studies, with 3 patients (3 feet) treated. Conclusions Ruptures of the plantar fascia are very rare in asymptomatic patients and more common in patients treated with injection of steroids in the plantar fascia. Conservative treatment, although not standardized in the literature, led to good outcomes in most cases. Chronic ruptures of the fascia should be considered for operative treatment.

Abstract

Background Brachymetatarsia is a rare abnormality of the foot which occurs most frequently in the first and fourth metatarsals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of gradual metatarsal lengthening by external fixator for treatment of brachymetatarsia of the fourth ray. The hypothesis was that with external fixation it would be possible to achieve the desired length of the metatarsal with a low rate of complications. Secondarily, in cases requiring a greater amount of correction, it was hypothesized that an opportune rate of bone consolidation would be achievable using a traditional oscillating saw without predrilling or use of a cold osteotome. Methods Between 2013 and 2016, 12 eligible patients and 13 feet underwent gradual metatarsal lengthening by an external fixator (MiniRail System M103, Orthofix) due to brachymetatarsia of the fourth ray. Mean age at surgery was 24.5 ± 5.3 years (range 19–36), with mean follow-up of 22.3 ± 8.3 months. Clinical evaluation was performed with the AOFAS lesser metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal (MTP-IP) score. Radiographic assessment was performed on follow-up using non-weightbearing dorsoplantar foot radiographs. Results The mean AOFAS lesser MTP-IP score improved from a preoperative score of 76.6 ± 7.1 points (range 62–85 points) to a postoperative score of 90.3 ± 3.0 points (range 86–95 points). The average amount of lengthening was 16.8 ± 3.9 mm (range 8–22 mm). Mean shortening, final lengthening, Healing Index, period of treatment, and complications are also reported. The operative technique is described. Conclusions Gradual metatarsal lengthening with external fixator is an effective treatment for brachymetatarsia and can restore forefoot anatomy with good clinical outcomes, a low rate of morbidity and complications in selected cases. Particular attention should be given when treating patients with shortening >20 mm.

Abstract

Multiple factors combined are currently recognized as contributors to cognitive decline. The main independent risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia is advanced age followed by other determinants such as genetic, socioeconomic, and environmental factors, including nutrition and physical activity. In the next decades, a rise in dementia cases is expected due largely to the aging of the world population. There are no hitherto effective pharmaceutical therapies to treat age-associated cognitive impairment and dementia, which underscores the crucial role of prevention. A relationship among diet, physical activity, and other lifestyle factors with cognitive function has been intensively studied with mounting evidence supporting the role of these determinants in the development of cognitive decline and dementia, which is a chief cause of disability globally. Several dietary patterns, foods, and nutrients have been investigated in this regard, with some encouraging and other disappointing results. This review presents the current evidence for the effects of dietary patterns, dietary components, some supplements, physical activity, sleep patterns, and social engagement on the prevention or delay of the onset of age-related cognitive decline and dementia. © 2021 by the authors.

Abstract

Recovery of postural control and proprioception in patients affected by chronic ankle instability (CAI) and operated on capsulo-ligaments reconstructive surgery lacks of objective assessment. The aim of this study was to evaluate long-term post-surgical postural and proprioceptive control through the DPPS device in a cohort of patients operated on ligaments reconstruction through the modified Brostrom procedure at a minimum follow up of 12 months. Eleven patients with post-traumatic lateral CAI, operated of external capsulo-ligamentous complex repair according to Brostrom technique at a minimum follow-up of 1 year were enrolled. Physical examination and American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score. Proprioceptive and postural stability was assessed by DPPS - Delos Postural Proprioceptive System, linked to a computer with a specific software and including a flat table, an electronic unstable proprioceptive board, a Delos Vertical Controller, a monitor and a horizontal bar fitted with an infra-red sensor for hand support. Patients were 5 males and 6 females, mean age of 38.4 ± 12 years. Mean BMI of the patients was 26.8 ± 4.4. Mean follow up was 13.4 ± 2.1. The mean value of (AOFAS) clinical score was 90.3/100. Mean Static Stability Index (SSI) with open eyes was 87.7% (±7.6) in the operated leg and 90.4% (±6.1) in the contra-lateral. SSI with closed eyes was 64.5% (±11.2) in the operated leg and 61.6% (±16.8) in the contra-lateral. Mean Dynamic Stability Index (DSI) without restrictions was 56.2% (±14.6) in the operated leg and 56.8% (±10.6) in the contra-lateral. DSI with restricted upper limbs, had a mean value of 56.3% (±11.4) in the operated leg and 58.1% (±11.9) in the contra-lateral. Re-tensioning capsular-ligamentous surgery of the external compartment for CAI allow to recovery proprioceptive and postural control on the operated side, comparable with data from the contralateral limb and from the healthy population of the same age and sex.

Abstract

Hallux rigidus, Latin for Stiff Toe, is characterized by an osteoarthritic degeneration of the articular surfaces of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. The aim of this literature narrative overview is to summarize and expose the great amount of management concepts and information, including the well-codified operative procedures and the more up to date knowledge about non-operative and surgical treatment of hallux rigidus. This may provide current information for physicians, medschool attendants and researchers. A comprehensive literature search using PubMed database has been performed, up to April 1, 2017. Several different types of treatment are described in the literature for low-grade hallux rigidus. The management for hallux rigidus can involve a variety of therapeutic interventions, conservative or operative. Hallux rigidus is a complex disease characterized by several clinical and pathological findings, and to achieve optimal results, surgical treatment for low-grade forms should be chosen between several surgical techniques depending on the degree of arthritis and other different clinical conditions.

Abstract

Due to the continuous aging of the population and consequent increase in dementia, focus on its prevention is of growing importance for public health. Since effective pharmacological treatments are not yet available, other determinants of cognitive decline have become fundamental. Several studies have indicated that the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is associated with reduced incident cognitive decline and dementia, but few studies have been conducted in persons already diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease (AD). We age-matched 73 patients with mild-moderate AD with 73 controls (mean age for the whole group = 76.5 ± 6.5; 67.5% women). The cases had a significantly lower adherence to the MedDiet and lower physical activity vs. controls, where only one participant (1.4%) had a high adherence to the MedDiet among cases compared to 5.5% among controls, while 52.5% of the cases had a moderate adherence to the MedDiet vs. 82.2% in controls. In multivariate analysis, only the presence of AD was significantly associated with a lower adherence to the MedDiet vs. controls. Other factors examined (gender, age, physical activity level, multimorbidity, and polypharmacy) were not significantly associated with adherence to the MedDiet. Thus, AD patients had a low adherence to the MedDiet and very low physical activity. Public health strategies aimed at promoting the Mediterranean diet and physical activity for older people should be a priority.

Abstract

Vaccination, particularly against pneumococcus and influenza, is a low-cost primary prevention, useful to avoid hard complications, particularly among frail older people. In this pilot study, we aimed to assess the effect of a strategy for influenza and pneumococcal vaccination for outpatients mainly affected by cognitive or endocrinological conditions, evaluating what could stimulate or demotivate vaccination among older people. This study was conducted during the 2023-2024 influenza season at the outpatient clinics in Palermo, Italy. A total 76 patients were included. More than half of the patients could be considered as pre-frail and about 20% frail, according to a comprehensive geriatric evaluation. Among patients, 46.05% received only vaccination against pneumococcus, 28.95% both vaccinations, and 25.0% only against influenza. Compared with the previous seasons, a 19.5% increase of influenza and 90.2% of pneumococcal vaccine uptake was observed. Side effects of vaccination were the main reason of the previous rejection, namely 76.9% for influenza and 53.8% for anti-pneumococcal vaccination. In conclusion, our study indicates how a new vaccination strategy in different settings could be feasible. Proposing influenza and pneumococcal vaccination for frail older outpatients could be an effective instrument to improve immunization coverage that is still low among older people., (© 2024.

Abstract

The Pinna nobilis , a Mediterranean mollusc, has suffered population declines due to a massive mortality event associated with various factors including the parasite Haplosporidium pinnae . Some populations show resilience, possibly due to local environmental conditions. In this study, a molecular multiplex PCR method was developed using species-specific primers targeting Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions of P. nobilis and P. rudis , allowing accurate species identification and hybrid detection. Samples from Mediterranean areas were analysed, including putative hybrids and individuals from five other bivalve species. DNA was isolated, ITS regions were amplified and sequenced, and phylogenetic analyses confirmed species differentiation and primer specificity. The multiplex-PCR successfully identified P. nobilis , P. rudis , and their hybrids based on distinct amplicon patterns. This study highlights the value of molecular tools in species conservation, especially for monitoring and managing hybridization, supporting effective biodiversity conservation strategies., Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest., (© 2024 The Author(s).

Abstract

Background: The association between depression and dementia is still unclear, particularly regarding depression as a potential risk factor preceding dementia. Therefore, we aimed to verify if the presence of depression at baseline may increase the risk of dementia and cognitive impairment during 15 years of follow-up in the SHARE (Survey of Health, Aging and Retirement in Europe) study., Methods: Depressive symptoms were defined using the EURO-D, with a score ≥4 indicative of depression. Incident dementia was ascertained using self-reported data and caregivers' information, cognitive impairment using objective cognitive tests. Cox regression analysis, adjusted for 10 baseline confounders, was run and hazard ratios (HRs), with their 95% confidence intervals, were estimated., Results: In total 22,789 participants were included in the present analysis (mean age 64.2 years) and were predominantly female. The prevalence of depression at baseline was 24.9%. Over 15 years of follow-up, the onset of dementia occurred a median 2 years earlier in people with depression compared to those without. Depression at the baseline significantly increased the risk of dementia in the overall sample (HR = 1.74; 95% CI: 1.54-1.95) and the risk of cognitive impairment (HR = 1.15; 95% CI: 1.06-1.25). For dementia, the association was stronger in people less than 60 years (HR = 2.07; 95% CI: 1.42-3.02) than in participants aged ≥80 years (HR = 1.47; 95% CI: 1.14-1.91). A similar trend was observed for cognitive impairment. Among the single items of the EURO-D, loss of concentration was the strongest individual variable predicting the onset of dementia., Conclusions: Depression increased the risk of dementia and cognitive impairment, particularly in younger adults, whereas loss of concentration was the strongest individual predicting variable of dementia. These findings demonstrate the need for early detection of depression for preventing future cognitive worsening., (© 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

Abstract

Background: Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) may evolve into dementia. Early recognition of possible evolution to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) is of importance, but actual diagnostic criteria have some limitations. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to find the most accurate markers that can discriminate patients with DLB versus AD, in MCI stage., Methods: We searched several databases up to 17 August 2023 including studies comparing markers that may distinguish DLB-MCI from AD-MCI. We reported data regarding sensitivity, specificity, and the area under the curves (AUCs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs)., Results: Among 2219 articles initially screened, eight case-control studies and one cohort study were included for a total of 832 outpatients with MCI. The accuracy of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) markers was the highest among the markers considered (AUC > 0.90 for the CSF markers), with the AUC of CSF Aβ42/Aβ40 of 0.94. The accuracy for clinical symptom scales was very good (AUC = 0.93), as evaluated in three studies. Although limited to one study, the accuracy of FDG-PET (cingulate island sign ratio) was very good (AUC = 0.95) in discriminating DLB from AD in MCI, while the accuracy of SPECT markers and EEG frequencies was variable., Conclusions: Few studies have assessed the accuracy of biomarkers and clinical tools to distinguish DLB from AD at the MCI stage. While results are promising for CSF markers, FDG-PET and clinical symptoms scales, more studies, particularly with a prospective design, are needed to evaluate their accuracy and clinical usefulness., Clinical Trial Registration: Prospero (CRD42023422600)., (© 2024.

Abstract

The rapid spread of the protozoan Haplosporidium pinnae is having a strong negative effect on Pinna nobilis populations. A case study on a residual population in Lake Faro (Sicily, Central Mediterranean), whose long-term monitoring has revealed a dramatic decline following the 2018-2020 mass mortality event, is presented. In the framework of such monitoring, we performed tissue sampling on nine living P. nobilis, detecting the pathogen in seven of them. In contrast, other pathogens associated with P. nobilis disease in other areas, i.e., Mycobacterium spp. and Vibrio mediterranei, were not recorded. The surviving individuals (approximately twenty) showed that brackish areas only weakly mitigate the effects of H. pinnae disease and might not be resolutive. Nevertheless, the results show that Lake Faro may constitute one of the last Mediterranean P. nobilis sanctuaries., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc.

Abstract

In this study, we investigated the presence of the parasite Haplosporidium pinnae , which is a pathogen for the bivalve Pinna nobilis , in water samples from different environments. Fifteen mantle samples of P. nobilis infected by H. pinnae were used to characterize the ribosomal unit of this parasite. The obtained sequences were employed to develop a method for eDNA detection of H. pinnae . We collected 56 water samples (from aquaria, open sea and sanctuaries) for testing the methodology. In this work, we developed three different PCRs generating amplicons of different lengths to determine the level of degradation of the DNA, since the status of H. pinnae in water and, therefore, its infectious capacity are unknown. The results showed the ability of the method to detect H. pinnae in sea waters from different areas persistent in the environment but with different degrees of DNA fragmentation. This developed method offers a new tool for preventive analysis for monitoring areas and to better understand the life cycle and the spread of this parasite.

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the Nursehound Scyliorhinus stellaris has been determined for the first time and compared with congeneric species. The mitogenome sequence was 16,684 bp in length. The mitogenome is composed of 13 PCGs, 2 rRNAs, 22 transfer RNA genes and non-coding regions. The gene order of the newly sequenced mitogenome is analogous to the organization described in other vertebrate genomes. The typical conservative blocks in the control region were indicated. The phylogenetic analysis revealed a monophyletic origin of the Scyliorhininae subfamily, and within it, two subclades were identified. A significant divergence of Scyliorhinus spp. together with Poroderna patherinum in relation to the group of Cephaloscyllium spp. was observed, except for Scyliorhinus torazame , more related to this last cited clade. A hypothesis of a divergent evolution consequent to a selective pressure in different geographic areas, which lead to a global latitudinal diversity gradient, has been suggested to explain this phylogenetic reconstruction. However, convergent evolution on mitochondrial genes could also involve different species in some areas of the world.

Abstract

The absence of morphological identification characters, together with the complexity of the fish supply chain make processed seafood vulnerable to cases of species substitution. Therefore, the authentication and the traceability of such products play a strategic role in ensuring quality and safety. The aim of the present study was to detect species used in the production of multi-species fish burgers and to evaluate mislabelling rates, using a DNA metabarcoding approach by sequencing a fragment of the 16S rRNA mitochondrial gene. The study highlighted the presence of 16 marine and 2 mammalian taxa with an overall mislabelling rate of 80%, including cases of species substitution, the undeclared presence of molluscs and of taxa whose use is not permitted by current Italian legislation. The presence of swine DNA as well as the inclusion of undeclared taxa potentially causing allergies raise concerns regarding consumer safety and protection regarding ethical or religious issues. Overall, the study shows that the application of DNA metabarcoding is a promising approach for successfully enforcing traceability systems targeting multi-species processed food and for supporting control activities, as a guarantee of an innovative food safety management system., Competing Interests: Conflict of interest: The authors declare no potential conflict of interest., (©Copyright: the Author(s).)

Abstract

Introduction: Rupture of the plantar fascia is a rare condition. It can also occur spontaneously and with no history of disease of the plantar fascia, above all in athletes. This review aims to systematically analyze all cases described in the literature regarding the rupture of the plantar fascia, evaluating incidence, risk factors, and treatments, considering which procedures show the best outcomes and the highest success rate., Materials and Methods: A systematic review of PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane review computerized databases was performed, focusing on articles about cases of rupture of the plantar fascia; 18 studies fulfilled all the criteria and were analyzed. There were no randomized controlled trials., Results: A total of 155 patients (157 foot) were included in this systematic review. Considering all the studies included, 12 patients had a spontaneous rupture, 138 patients had a diagnosis of plantar fasciitis, and 130 patients were treated with local injections of corticosteroid before the rupture. Only 2 cases of bilateral rupture were reported. In all, 15 studies reported conservative treatment, with a total of 154 patients (156 feet) included. Operative treatment was reported in 3 studies, with 3 patients (3 feet) treated., Conclusions: Ruptures of the plantar fascia are very rare in asymptomatic patients and more common in patients treated with injection of steroids in the plantar fascia. Conservative treatment, although not standardized in the literature, led to good outcomes in most cases. Chronic ruptures of the fascia should be considered for operative treatment., Levels of Evidence: Level III.

Abstract

Background: The pen shells Pinna nobilis and Pinna rudis are large wedge-shaped bivalve molluscs. Both species are threatened by different anthropogenic pressures. In the last few years, P. nobilis populations have significantly reduced due to massive mortality events. The complete mitochondrial DNA sequences of these congeneric species have been determined and compared for the first time., Results: The mitogenome sequences of P. nobilis and P. rudis were 18,919 bp and 18,264 bp in length, respectively. Each mitogenome is composed of 12 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA, 22 transfer RNA (tRNAs) genes and non-coding regions. A putative Adenosine Triphosphate synthase subunit 8 gene could only be proposed for P. nobilis. Both newly sequenced mitogenomes present a conserved gene order between them, comparable to the closely related Atrina pectinata, but global arrangement greatly differs from other available bivalve mitochondrial sequences. Multiple copies of tRNA-Cys were identified, located in different positions probably due to mechanisms of mitochondrial genome rearrangements, and detected 2 and 3 times in P. rudis and in P. nobilis, respectively., Conclusion: A close relationship was shown between Pinna species and Atrina pectinata and a consistent clustering showing a monophyletic origin of Pinnidae family sequences was evidenced. The mitochondrial genomes will provide a valuable genetic resource for further studies on population genetics and species identification., (© 2022.

Abstract

Background: During the last two years, COVID-19 affected older people with dementia or mild cognitive impairment (MCI), but conflicting and sparse results are still present. The objective of this study was to investigate the frequency and type of changes in functional, cognitive and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), and caregiver's stress during the period of quarantine in 2020 in patients affected by dementia/MCI living in Palermo, Sicily., Methods: Outpatients affected by MCI/dementia were evaluated before and after COVID-19 quarantine. Functional status was investigated using basic and instrumental activities of daily living (ADL); cognitive performance with the mini-mental state examination; BPSD through the neuropsychiatric inventory (NPI). All scales were reported as pre/post-COVID-19 quarantine and a logistic regression analysis was performed for investigating the factors associated with worsening in NPI in patients and their caregivers., Results: One hundred patients (mean age 77.1; females = 59%) were evaluated over a median of 10 months. In the sample as whole, a significant decline in functional and cognitive status was observed (p < 0.001 for both comparisons). The NPI significantly increased by 3.56 ± 8.96 points after the COVID-19 quarantine (p < 0.0001), while the caregivers' stress increased by 1.39 ± 3.46 points between the two evaluations (p < 0.0001). The decline was more evident in people with milder dementia. Higher values of instrumental ADL at baseline were associated with a significant lower worsening in NPI and caregiver's stress., Conclusions: COVID-19 quarantine negatively affected functional, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric symptoms in older people affected by dementia/MCI, highlighting the impact of COVID-19 quarantine for this population., (© 2022.

Abstract

The pen shell Pinna nobilis is critically endangered due to a disease that has affected all open water populations since late 2016. Collection of early spats is considered a fundamental step for pen shell conservation. However, the identification between P. nobilis and P. rudis juveniles by morphology is a very difficult task. Furthermore, due to the small size of juveniles and high sensitivity to handling, the sampling for this purpose must not damage individuals. As a consequence, the application of molecular techniques for conservation strategies to identify threatened and endangered bivalve species is every day more and more necessary. In this study, we present the development of a multiplex-PCR procedure for the rapid identification of two Pinna species from eDNA water samples. Using species-specific primers, designed in the rRNA16S and rRNA12S mitochondrial genes, identification of species was obtained by cellular or extracellular DNA dissolved in water and differentiated based on the size of the amplified DNA fragments. • Development of a molecular multiplex-PCR procedure for the rapid identification of two Pinna species from eDNA water samples • Using specie-specific primers, the different species can be differentiated basing on the size of the amplified DNA fragments • This technique removes many of the limitations commonly associated with sampling of threatened and endangered juvenile bivalves for conservation strategies (sampling does not damage individuals)., Competing Interests: The authors certify that the material presented here is original work which has not been previously published. All biological samples were collected during management operations as part of a study plan approved by the Generalitat Valenciana (Conselleria de Agricultura, Medio Ambiente, Cambio Climático y Desarrollo Rural) and the Spanish Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge. Appropriate ethics, permissions to manipulate animals and other approvals were obtained for the submitted research.

Abstract

Background and Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of coping strategies used to reduce burnout syndrome in healthcare workers teams. Materials and Methods: We used PubMed and Web of Science, including scientific articles and other studies for additional citations. Only 7 of 906 publications have the appropriate inclusion criteria and were selected. A PRISMA 2020 flow diagram was used. Results: The most common coping strategies that the literature studies showed were efficient, in particular social and emotional support, physical activity, physical self-care, emotional and physical distancing from work. Coping mechanisms associated with less burnout were also physical well-being, clinical variety, setting boundaries, transcendental, passion for one's work, realistic expectations, remembering patients and organizational activities. Furthermore, it was helpful to listen to the team's needs and preferences about some types of training. Conclusion: We suppose that the appropriate coping strategies employed in the team could be useful also in the prevention of psychological suffering, especially in contexts where working conditions are stressful. Studies about coping strategies to face burnout syndrome in healthcare workers should be increased.
