Abstract

Background: Lombardy was severely hit by the COVID-19 pandemic since February 2020 and the Health System underwent rapid reorganization. Outpatient clinics were stopped for non-urgent patients: it became a priority to manage hundreds of fragile neurological patients who suddenly had less reference points. In Italy, before the pandemic, Televisits were neither recognized nor priced. Methods: At the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Neurologico C. Besta, we reorganized outpatient clinics to deliver Neuro-telemedicine services, including Televisits and Teleneurorehabilitation, since March 2020. A dedicated Working Group prepared the procedure, tested the system, and designed satisfaction questionnaires for adults and children. Results: After a pilot phase, we prepared a procedure for Telemedicine outpatient clinics which was approved by hospital directions. It included prescription, booking, consenting, privacy and data protection, secure connection with patients (Teams Microsoft 365), electronic report preparation and delivery, reporting, and accountability of the services. During the March–September 2020 period, we delivered 3167 Telemedicine services, including 1618 Televisits, to 1694 patients (972 adults, 722 children) with a wide range of chronic neurological disorders. We successfully administered different clinical assessment and scales. Satisfaction among patients and caregivers was very high. Conclusions: During the dramatic emergency, we were able to take care of more than 1600 patients by organizing Neuro-telehealth in a few weeks, lessening the impact of the pandemic on fragile patients with chronic neurological disorders; this strategy is now stably embedded in our care pathways. In Italy, Telehealth is at present recognized and priced and is becoming a stable pillar of the health system.

Abstract

Postnatal growth failure of very-low-birthweight (VLBW) infants may result from a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors, including inadequate nutrition, morbidities affecting nutrient requirements, endocrine abnormalities and treatments. Among VLBW infants, those small for gestational age (SGA) at birth and those with postnatal growth restriction at the time of discharge are at higher risk of later growth failure and long-term consequences. Nutritional intervention with an "aggressive nutrition" during the first weeks of life may be able to minimize the interruption of nutrients that occurs at birth, and reduce as much as possible the incidence of growth restriction at the time of discharge and later. Even though aggressive parenteral and enteral nutrition appear to be effective and safe in VLBW infants, further evaluations of their long-term effect on growth and health consequences are needed. Several studies evaluating the effect of enriched nutrient formulas after hospital discharge on growth and neurodevelopment have produced conflicting results, whereas the potential deleterious long-term effects of prolonged use of high protein and/or of later catch-up growth have been questioned. In contrast, recent data seem to indicate that the use of human milk after hospital discharge could be the most beneficial diet for subsequent health and development. Conclusion: VLBW infants SGA at birth and those with early postnatal growth restriction are at high risk of later growth failure and long-term consequences. Therefore, the first objective of early nutrition should be to reduce the incidence of growth restriction at the time of discharge. Further studies on VLBW infants to evaluate the safety and beneficial effects of prolonged dietary manipulation during the first year of life are needed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize the liver involvement in infants who have both neonatal asphyxia and neonatal cholestasis. Methods: We describe four asphyctic newborn infants (three born at term) who developed early (age 3.8 ± 2.1 days) intrahepatic neonatal cholestasis and in whom tests for causes of neonatal liver damage were negative. Results: The clinical picture and course were benign and similar to that of sporadic 'idiopathic' neonatal hepatitis. Clinical signs and abnormal liver function tests tended to normalize within the first year of life in all. Conjugated bilirubin became normal at 6 months after the onset of cholestasis, while liver enzymes tended towards normal values thereafter, within 1 year of follow-up. Liver biopsy (taken in one patient) showed a typical picture of giant cell hepatitis; ultrastructure was non-specific. Significance: Our results suggest that isolated asphyxia should be taken into account as a potential causal factor in term or pre-term asphyctic newborns who develop early 'idiopathic' neonatal cholestasis.

Abstract

The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) defined a seizure as "a transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain." This definition has been used since the era of Hughlings Jackson, and does not take into account subsequent advances made in epilepsy and neuroscience research. The clinical diagnosis of a seizure is empirical, based upon constellations of certain signs and symptoms, while simultaneously ruling out a list of potential imitators of seizures. Seizures should be delimited in time, but the borders of ictal (during a seizure), interictal (between seizures) and postictal (after a seizure) often are indistinct. EEG recording is potentially very helpful for confirmation, classification and localization. About a half-dozen common EEG patterns are encountered during seizures. Clinicians rely on researchers to answer such questions as why seizures start, spread and stop, whether seizures involve increased synchrony, the extent to which extra-cortical structures are involved, and how to identify the seizure network and at what points interventions are likely to be helpful. Basic scientists have different challenges in use of the word 'seizure,' such as distinguishing seizures from normal behavior, which would seem easy but can be very difficult because some rodents have EEG activity during normal behavior that resembles spike-wave discharge or bursts of rhythmic spiking. It is also important to define when a seizure begins and stops so that seizures can be quantified accurately for pre-clinical studies. When asking what causes seizures, the transition to a seizure and differentiating the pre-ictal, ictal and post-ictal state is also important because what occurs before a seizure could be causal and may warrant further investigation for that reason. These and other issues are discussed by three epilepsy researchers with clinical and basic science expertise.
