Background: End colostomy rates following colorectal resection vary across institutions in high-income settings, being influenced by patient, disease, surgeon and system factors. This study aimed to assess global variation in end colostomy rates after left-sided colorectal resection. Methods: This study comprised an analysis of GlobalSurg-1 and -2 international, prospective, observational cohort studies (2014, 2016), including consecutive adult patients undergoing elective or emergency left-sided colorectal resection within discrete 2-week windows. Countries were grouped into high-, middle- and low-income tertiles according to the United Nations Human Development Index (HDI). Factors associated with colostomy formation versus primary anastomosis were explored using a multilevel, multivariable logistic regression model. Results: In total, 1635 patients from 242 hospitals in 57 countries undergoing left-sided colorectal resection were included: 113 (6.9 per cent) from low-HDI, 254 (15.5 per cent) from middle-HDI and 1268 (77.6 per cent) from high-HDI countries. There was a higher proportion of patients with perforated disease (57.5, 40.9 and 35.4 per cent; P, Medical Research Council, MR/N022114/1; National Institute for Health Research, 16/136/79

Journal Article; The CIAOW study (Complicated intra-abdominal infections worldwide observational study) is a multicenter observational study underwent in 68 medical institutions worldwide during a six-month study period (October 2012-March 2013). The study included patients older than 18 years undergoing surgery or interventional drainage to address complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs). 1898 patients with a mean age of 51.6 years (range 18-99) were enrolled in the study. 777 patients (41%) were women and 1,121 (59%) were men. Among these patients, 1,645 (86.7%) were affected by community-acquired IAIs while the remaining 253 (13.3%) suffered from healthcare-associated infections. Intraperitoneal specimens were collected from 1,190 (62.7%) of the enrolled patients. 827 patients (43.6%) were affected by generalized peritonitis while 1071 (56.4%) suffered from localized peritonitis or abscesses. The overall mortality rate was 10.5% (199/1898). According to stepwise multivariate analysis (PR = 0.005 and PE = 0.001), several criteria were found to be independent variables predictive of mortality, including patient age (OR = 1.1; 95%CI = 1.0-1.1; p

Despite advances in diagnosis, surgery, and antimicrobial therapy, mortality rates associated with complicated intra-abdominal infections remain exceedingly high. The World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) has designed the CIAOW study in order to describe the clinical, microbiological, and management-related profiles of both community- and healthcare-acquired complicated intra-abdominal infections in a worldwide context. The CIAOW study (Complicated Intra-Abdominal infection Observational Worldwide Study) is a multicenter observational study currently underway in 57 medical institutions worldwide. The study includes patients undergoing surgery or interventional drainage to address complicated intra-abdominal infections. This preliminary report includes all data from almost the first two months of the six-month study period. Patients who met inclusion criteria with either community-acquired or healthcare-associated complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) were included in the study. 702 patients with a mean age of 49.2 years (range 18–98) were enrolled in the study. 272 patients (38.7%) were women and 430 (62.3%) were men. Among these patients, 615 (87.6%) were affected by community-acquired IAIs while the remaining 87 (12.4%) suffered from healthcare-associated infections. Generalized peritonitis was observed in 304 patients (43.3%), whereas localized peritonitis or abscesses was registered in 398 (57.7%) patients. The overall mortality rate was 10.1% (71/702). The final results of the CIAOW Study will be published following the conclusion of the study period in March 2013.

International audience; Abstract There is currently no approved treatment for primary Sjögren’s syndrome, a disease that primarily affects adult women. The difficulty in developing effective therapies is -in part- because of the heterogeneity in the clinical manifestation and pathophysiology of the disease. Finding common molecular signatures among patient subgroups could improve our understanding of disease etiology, and facilitate the development of targeted therapeutics. Here, we report, in a cross-sectional cohort, a molecular classification scheme for Sjögren’s syndrome patients based on the multi-omic profiling of whole blood samples from a European cohort of over 300 patients, and a similar number of age and gender-matched healthy volunteers. Using transcriptomic, genomic, epigenetic, cytokine expression and flow cytometry data, combined with clinical parameters, we identify four groups of patients with distinct patterns of immune dysregulation. The biomarkers we identify can be used by machine learning classifiers to sort future patients into subgroups, allowing the re-evaluation of response to treatments in clinical trials.

Onco-nephrology is an emerging field in medicine. Patients with cancer may suffer from kidney diseases because of the cancer itself and cancer-related therapy. It is critical for nephrologists to be knowledgeable of cancer biology and therapy in order to be fully integrated in the multidisciplinary team and optimally manage patients with cancer and kidney diseases. In a recent international meeting, the key issues in this challenging clinical interface were addressed, including many unresolved basic science questions, such as the high tumor incidence in kidney transplant recipients. To this end, 70 highly qualified faculty members were gathered from all over the world to discuss these issues in 8 plenary sessions, including 5 keynote lectures. In addition, 48 young nephrologists and oncologists were invited to present their original observations that were highlighted in 2 large poster sessions.

Background Asymptomatic bacteriuria is frequent in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). However, there is no consensus on diagnosis or management. We conducted a European survey to explore current practice related to the diagnosis and management of asymptomatic bacteriuria in adult KTRs. Methods A panel of experts from the European Renal Association-European Dialysis Transplant Association/Developing Education Science and Care for Renal Transplantation in European States working group and the European Study Group for Infections in Compromised Hosts of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases designed this cross-sectional, questionnaire-based, self-administered survey. Invitations to participate were e-mailed to European physicians involved in the care of KTRs. Results Two hundred and forty-four participants from 138 institutions in 25 countries answered the survey (response rate 30%). Most participants [72% (176/244)] said they always screen for asymptomatic bacteriuria in KTRs. Six per cent (15/240) reported never treating asymptomatic bacteriuria with antibiotics. When antimicrobial treatment was used, 24% of the participants (53/224) said they would start with empirical antibiotics. For an episode of asymptomatic bacteriuria caused by a fully susceptible microorganism and despite no contraindications, a majority of participants (121/223) said they would use a fluoroquinolone (n = 56), amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (n = 38) or oral cephalosporins (n = 27). Conclusions Screening for and treating asymptomatic bacteriuria are common in KTRs despite uncertainties around the benefits and harms. In an era of antimicrobial resistance, further studies are needed to address the diagnosis and management of asymptomatic bacteriuria in these patients.

Contains fulltext : 177987.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs (ASPs) have been promoted to optimize antimicrobial usage and patient outcomes, and to reduce the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant organisms. However, the best strategies for an ASP are not definitively established and are likely to vary based on local culture, policy, and routine clinical practice, and probably limited resources in middle-income countries. The aim of this study is to evaluate structures and resources of antimicrobial stewardship teams (ASTs) in surgical departments from different regions of the world. METHODS: A cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted in 2016 on 173 physicians who participated in the AGORA (Antimicrobials: A Global Alliance for Optimizing their Rational Use in Intra-Abdominal Infections) project and on 658 international experts in the fields of ASPs, infection control, and infections in surgery. RESULTS: The response rate was 19.4%. One hundred fifty-six (98.7%) participants stated their hospital had a multidisciplinary AST. The median number of physicians working inside the team was five [interquartile range 4-6]. An infectious disease specialist, a microbiologist and an infection control specialist were, respectively, present in 80.1, 76.3, and 67.9% of the ASTs. A surgeon was a component in 59.0% of cases and was significantly more likely to be present in university hospitals (89.5%, p < 0.05) compared to community teaching (83.3%) and community hospitals (66.7%). Protocols for pre-operative prophylaxis and for antimicrobial treatment of surgical infections were respectively implemented in 96.2 and 82.3% of the hospitals. The majority of the surgical departments implemented both persuasive and restrictive interventions (72.8%). The most common types of interventions in surgical departments were dissemination of educational materials (62.5%), expert approval (61.0%), audit and feedback (55.1%), educational outreach (53.7%), and compulsory order forms (51.5%). CONCLUSION: The survey showed a heterogeneous organization of ASPs worldwide, demonstrating the necessity of a multidisciplinary and collaborative approach in the battle against antimicrobial resistance in surgical infections, and the importance of educational efforts towards this goal.

Background Obesity has been linked to poor access to medical care. Although scientific evidence suggest that kidney transplantation improves survival and quality of life in obese patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), few data exist on the impact of obesity on access to kidney transplantation in this population. Objectives We aimed to characterize the relationships between body mass index (BMI) at the start of dialysis, changes in BMI after the start of dialysis, and either access to kidney transplantation or overall mortality in dialysis or transplantation among ESRD patients. Methods Between 2002 and 2011, 19524 dialysis patients with ESRD were included in the study via the French nationwide Renal Epidemiology and Information Network. Data on sociodemographic factors, comorbidities and laboratory test results were recorded upon entry into the registry. BMI were obtained at the start of dialysis and then yearly. Cubic spline regression analyses provided a graphic evaluation of the relationships between BMI at the start of dialysis and outcomes. Joint models were used to evaluate the association between the change over time in BMI and outcomes. Results During a median follow-up of 20.3 months, 6634 patients underwent kidney transplantation. A BMI >31 kg/m2 at the start of the dialysis was associated with a lower likelihood of receiving a kidney transplant, and the likelihood decreased even further with higher BMI values. For patients with BMI ≥30kg/m2 at the start of the dialysis, a 1 kg/m2 decrease in BMI during follow-up was associated with a 9% to 11% increase in the likelihood of receiving a transplant. There was an L-shaped relationship between BMI at the start of dialysis and overall mortality. We showed that obese patients with ESRD face barriers to the receipt of a kidney transplant without valid reasons. Conclusion Greater attention to this issue would improve the fairness of the organ allocation process and might improve outcomes for obese patients with ESRD.

A concern for researchers planning multisite studies is that scanner and T1-weighted sequence-related biases on regional volumes could overshadow true effects, especially for studies with a heterogeneous set of scanners and sequences. Current approaches attempt to harmonize data by standardizing hardware, pulse sequences, and protocols, or by calibrating across sites using phantom-based corrections to ensure the same raw image intensities. We propose to avoid harmonization and phantom-based correction entirely. We hypothesized that the bias of estimated regional volumes is scaled between sites due to the contrast and gradient distortion differences between scanners and sequences. Given this assumption, we provide a new statistical framework and derive a power equation to define inclusion criteria for a set of sites based on the variability of their scaling factors. We estimated the scaling factors of 20 scanners with heterogeneous hardware and sequence parameters by scanning a single set of 12 subjects at sites across the United States and Europe. Regional volumes and their scaling factors were estimated for each site using Freesurfer's segmentation algorithm and ordinary least squares, respectively. The scaling factors were validated by comparing the theoretical and simulated power curves, performing a leave-one-out calibration of regional volumes, and evaluating the absolute agreement of all regional volumes between sites before and after calibration. Using our derived power equation, we were able to define the conditions under which harmonization is not necessary to achieve 80% power. This approach can inform choice of processing pipelines and outcome metrics for multisite studies based on scaling factor variability across sites, enabling collaboration between clinical and research institutions. publisher: Elsevier articletitle: Power estimation for non-standardized multisite studies journaltitle: NeuroImage articlelink: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2016.03.051 content_type: article copyright: © 2016 The Authors.

on behalf of Eurocord, Cord Blood Committee EBMT and Netcord; International audience; Umbilical cord blood transplant recipients are exposed to an increased risk of graft failure, a complication leading to a higher rate of transplant-related mortality. The decision and timing to offer a second transplant after graft failure is challenging. With the aim of addressing this issue, we analyzed engraftment kinetics and outcomes of 1268 patients (73% children) with acute leukemia (64% acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 36% acute myeloid leukemia) in remission who underwent single-unit umbilical cord blood transplantation after a myeloablative conditioning regimen. The median follow-up was 31 months. The overall survival rate at 3 years was 47%; the 100-day cumulative incidence of transplant-related mortality was 16%. Longer time to engraftment was associated with increased transplant-related mortality and shorter overall survival. The cumulative incidence of neutrophil engraftment at day 60 was 86%, while the median time to achieve engraftment was 24 days. Probability density analysis showed that the likelihood of engraftment after umbilical cord blood transplantation increased after day 10, peaked on day 21 and slowly decreased to 21% by day 31. Beyond day 31, the probability of engraftment dropped rapidly, and the residual probability of engrafting after day 42 was 5%. Graft failure was reported in 166 patients, and 66 of them received a second graft (allogeneic, n=45). Rescue actions, such as the search for another graft, should be considered starting after day 21. A diagnosis of graft failure can be established in patients who have not achieved neutrophil recovery by day 42. Moreover, subsequent transplants should not be postponed after day 42.

The CIAO Study (“Complicated Intra-Abdominal infection Observational” Study) is a multicenter investigation performed in 68 medical institutions throughout Europe over the course of a 6-month observational period (January-June 2012). Patients with either community-acquired or healthcare-associated complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) were included in the study. 2,152 patients with a mean age of 53.8 years (range: 4–98 years) were enrolled in the study. 46.3% of the patients were women and 53.7% were men. Intraperitoneal specimens were collected from 62.2% of the enrolled patients, and from these samples, a variety of microorganisms were collectively identified. The overall mortality rate was 7.5% (163/2.152). According to multivariate analysis of the compiled data, several criteria were found to be independent variables predictive of patient mortality, including patient age, the presence of an intestinal non-appendicular source of infection (colonic non-diverticular perforation, complicated diverticulitis, small bowel perforation), a delayed initial intervention (a delay exceeding 24 hours), sepsis and septic shock in the immediate post-operative period, and ICU admission. Given the sweeping geographical distribution of the participating medical centers, the CIAO Study gives an accurate description of the epidemiological, clinical, microbiological, and treatment profiles of complicated intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) throughout Europe.

- Abstract
Background: Porokeratosis variants are relatively rare and can be clinically misdiagnosed with several common papulokeratotic mimickers. Line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT) is a new technology able to explore the skin in vivo up to a depth of 500 µm., Objectives: To investigate the role of LC-OCT in the diagnosis of many porokeratosis variants in a preliminary study., Method: In total, 130 LC-OCT images were obtained from 98 patients, 45 affected by a porokeratosis variant (69 images) and 53 with a mimicker condition (61 images)., Results: We found almost perfect interobserver agreement for LC-OCT image interpretation and perfect correspondence with the findings from histological slides. In addition, a series of morphological in vivo and three-dimensional features related to the cornoid lamella were detected by LC-OCT that were not visible from the histology., Conclusions: This device can be proposed to assist with rapid bedside noninvasive differentiation of porokeratosis variants from their mimickers, possibly sparing incisional biopsy in patients where the diagnosis is uncertain., Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest The authors declare no conflicts of interest., (© The Author(s) 2024.

- Abstract
Background: Some people may compulsively desire to suntan despite the negative consequences, exhibiting symptoms similar to addictive disorders. Tanning dependence (TD) should be considered a risk factor leading to excessive sunbathing and thus increasing the risk of skin cancers. The aim of the present study was to investigate the tanning habits of the inhabitants of Trieste, a Northeastern Italian town characterized by high melanoma incidence. Predictors of tanning addiction were searched. The area of Trieste ranks second in Italy (after Turin) for melanoma incidence with standardized incidence rates very high in both sexes., Methods: This study was based on an anonymous online survey of 520 randomly recruited adults who reported living in Trieste. TD was assessed using the mCAGE (modified Cut down, Annoyed, Guilty, Eye-opener) and the mDSM-IV-TR (modified Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text Revision) questionnaires. Participants were classified as TD if positive on both questionnaires., Results: Seventy-eight (15%) individuals were classified as TDs. The analyses compared TDs (N.=78, 15%) with non-TDs (N.=285, 55%) on various characteristics and behaviors. Females were significantly more represented in the TD group than males (P=0.03). Contrarily, TD did not vary with respect to age and Fitzpatrick skin type. High-risk tanning behaviors, including sun exposure in the middle hours of the day, long tanning sessions (more than 3 hours), and the use of sunbeds, were significantly related to TD., Conclusions: Our results show that TD can be predicted by tanning behaviors. Increased knowledge of TD will help design appropriate interventions for different risk subgroups.

- Abstract
Background: According to the literature, about one third of patients with brain ischemic symptoms lasting <24 hours, which are classified as TIAs according to the traditional "time-based" definition, show the presence of acute ischemic lesions at neuroimaging. Recent evidence has shown that the presence of acute ischemic lesions at neuroimaging may impact on the outcome of patients with transient ischemic symptoms treated with dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT). This uncertainty is even more compelling in recent years as short-term DAPT has become the standard treatment for any non-cardioembolic TIA or minor ischemic stroke., Methods: This is a pre-specified subgroup analysis from a prospective multicenter real-world study (READAPT). The analysis included patients with time-based TIA - i.e. those with ischemic symptoms lasting <24 hours - who started DAPT. In the whole population, we assessed the presence of acute brain ischemic lesions at neuroimaging and their association with the ABCD2 score. To assess the impact of acute brain ischemic lesions on 90-day prognosis, we performed a propensity score matching of patients with and without those lesions. We adopted a primary effectiveness outcome which was a composite of new stroke/TIA events and death due to vascular causes at 90 days., Results: We included 517 patients - 324 (62.7%) male - with a median (interquartile range - IQR) age of 74 (IQR 65-81) years; 144 patients (27.9%) had acute brain ischemic lesions at neuroimaging. The proportion of patients with brain ischemic lesions did not vary according to the ABCD2 score. At follow-up, 4 patients with brain ischemic lesions (2.8%) and 21 patients without lesions (5.6%) reported the primary effectiveness outcome, which was similar between the groups before (p=0.178) and after matching (p=0.518)., Conclusions: In our population, patients with transient ischemic symptoms and acute ischemic lesions at brain MRI had a risk of recurrent ischemic events similar to those without lesions. The risk of recurrent ischemic events was low in both groups.

- Abstract
Background: Short-term dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT) is superior to single antiplatelet treatment (SAPT) for secondary prevention in non-cardioembolic minor ischemic stroke and high-risk TIA. As the real-world use of DAPT is broader than in trials, it is important to clarify its benefit/risk profile in a diverse population., Methods: Post-hoc analysis of prospectively collected data from the READAPT cohort and 3 prospective stroke registries including patients with mild-to-moderate (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] score 0-10) ischemic stroke receiving early DAPT or SAPT. The primary effectiveness outcome was 90-day return to pre-stroke neurological functioning using modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score. Secondary effectiveness outcomes were 90-day mRS shift, new ischemic stroke/TIA, vascular and all-cause death, 24-h early neurological improvement or deterioration. The safety outcome was 90-day intracranial hemorrhage., Results: We matched 1008 patients treated with DAPT and 1008 treated with SAPT. Compared to SAPT, patients treated with DAPT showed higher likelihood of 90-day primary effectiveness outcome (87.5% versus 84.4%, risk difference 3.1% [95%CI 0.1%-6.1%];p=0.047, risk ratio 1.03 [95%CI 1.01-1.07];p=0.043) and higher rate of 24-h early neurological improvement (25.3% versus 15.4%, risk difference 9.9% [95%CI 6.4%-13.4%];p<0.001, risk ratio 1.65 [95%CI 1.37-1.97];p<0.001). No differences were observed for other study outcomes. Subgroup analysis confirmed benefit of DAPT over SAPT for primary effectiveness outcome in patients with moderate stroke, those treated with intravenous thrombolysis and who received antiplatelet loading dose., Conclusions: Our findings suggest that DAPT use might be safe and more effective than SAPT even in the real-world and in patients who do not strictly fulfill criteria of landmark large clinical trials.

- Abstract
Background: Data on the predictors of percutaneous stellate ganglion block (PSGB) efficacy in electrical storm (ES) are scanty., Objective: To assess whether the PSGB efficacy is influenced by the arrhythmia type and cycle length prior to the procedure., Methods: A sub-analysis of the multicenter STAR study. The population was stratified into 3 groups according to the median cycle length of the latest ventricular arrhythmia before PSGB: ventricular fibrillation (VF), fast-VT and slow-VT. The primary outcome was the number of treated arrhythmic episodes (with ATPs and/or DC-shocks) in the hour immediately after PSGB compared to the hour before., Results: We considered 139 PSGBs from 112 patients divided in 51 VF, 44 fast-VT (VT cycle<375 msec) and 44 slow-VT (VT cycle≥375 msec). The number of treated arrhythmic episodes in the hour after every PSGB was significantly lower compared to the hour before in all groups [VF:0 (IQR,0-1) vs 5 (IQR,2-8), p<0.001; fast-VT:0 (IQR,0-0) vs 1 (IQR,0-6.5), p<0.001; slow-VT:0 (IQR,0-0) vs 1 (IQR,0-4.5), p=0.001]. Analyzing the reduction of the number of ATPs/DC-shocks from the hour before to the hour after PSGB, a significant trend was observed across the groups (Jonckheere-Terpstra trend p<0.001) and a significant difference was observed comparing slow-VT vs VF and fast-VT versus VF, but not comparing slow-VT versus fast-VT. VF was independently associated with the probability of reduction of treated event after PSGB., Conclusion: PSGB is an effective treatment for ES in patients with all type of ventricular arrhythmias. However, its effectiveness was more pronounced in patients with VF., (Copyright © 2024. Published by Elsevier Inc.)

- Abstract
Background: The outcomes of minor ischemic stroke resulting from small artery occlusion (SAO-MIS) have not yet been characterized after dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT) has become the standard of care. We provided updated figures on the short-term prognosis of SAO-MIS treated with early short-term DAPT and compared the outcomes of SAO-MIS versus non-SAO-MIS patients., Methods: This is a prespecified sub-analysis from a prospective multicentric real-world study (READAPT, NCT05476081) including patients with minor (NIHSS≤5) non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke treated with DAPT. The primary outcome was a composite of 90-day symptomatic ischemic stroke or major cardiovascular events. Secondary outcomes were the 90-day ordinal distribution of modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores, 90-day excellent functional outcome (mRS of 0 to 1), and 24-h early neurological deterioration (END). Safety outcomes were 90-day intracerebral hemorrhage, moderate-to-severe and any bleedings. All outcomes were compared between SAO-MIS and non-SAO-MIS patients., Results: We included 678 MIS, of whom 253 (37.3 %) were SAO-related. At 90 days, 3 patients with SAO-MIS had primary outcome (1.2 % [95 % CI 0.2 %-3.5 %]), which were all SAO-related ischemic strokes. For the secondary outcomes, most SAO-MIS patients (n = 191, 75.5 %) had 90-day excellent functional outcome and 12 had 24-h END (4.7 % [95 % CI 2.5 %-8.3 %]). Referring to safety outcomes, 90-day intracerebral hemorrhage occurred only in one patient with SAO-MIS (0.4 % [95 % CI 0.0 %- 2.2 %]). Compared to non-SAO-MIS, the 90-day risk of recurrent vascular events was significantly lower among SAO-MIS (aHR 0.24 [95 % CI 0.08-0.68]; p = 0.007), while there were not significant differences in other secondary outcomes, nor in the risk of safety events., Conclusions: Our findings show overall favorable short-term prognosis after SAO-MIS treated with DAPT.

- Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and, in particular, chronic haemodialysis (HD) patients have a high risk of developing sleep disorders and executive dysfunction. Sleep disorders have a prevalence of 75 % in the haemodialysed population and several causes are behind their occurrence: sympatho-vagal imbalances, low melatonin production, vitamin D deficiency, altered cerebral haemodynamics and haemodialysis-induced vascular stress. Executive dysfunction affects about 55 % of haemodialysis patients. The causes can be ascribed to dysfunctions of the frontal lobes. HD patients show frontal brain atrophy and reduced brain activity and connectivity of several frontal and prefrontal areas. Sleep quality also has a significant impact on executive functions; inefficient and fragmented sleep reduces the efficiency of executive functions and increases the risk of dementia. Sleep deprivation also alters the connectivity and structure of several frontal areas. Thus, sleep and executive functions seem to be closely linked. Multidisciplinary care of patients with CKD and in HD appears essential to structure preventive interventions, pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments that can improve sleep quality, preserve the integrity of executive functions and improve their quality of life., 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 © 2024 Elsevier B.V.

- Abstract
Background and Objectives: The optimal mechanical thrombectomy technique for distal, medium vessel occlusion (DMVO) stroke remains unknown. We aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of 2 thrombectomy first-line approaches, direct aspiration (DA), and combined technique (CT) in patients with DMVOs., Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of a prospectively collected multicenter database of patients with DMVOs (at or distal to M2 and A1), who underwent mechanical thrombectomy with JET D reperfusion catheters between January 2020 and December 2021. The primary end point was the rate of first-pass complete recanalization, defined as modified treatment in cerebral infarction (mTICI) 3. The hemorrhagic complications, the 90 days functional independence rate (modified Rankin Scale 0-2), and mortality were also evaluated., Results: A total of 171 consecutive patients were enrolled (95 in DA and 76 in CT cohort). The 2 groups had comparable demographics and baseline characteristics. The DA group had a higher rate of first-pass effect (40.0% vs 10.5%, P < .001), final mTICI 2b-3 (89.5% vs 71.1%, P = .003) and final mTICI 3 (58.9% vs 28.9%, P < .001), shorter groin to reperfusion time (65 ± 43 min vs 101 ± 60 min, P < .001), and higher rate of 90-day functional independence (63.7% vs 36.1%; P = .001) compared with the CT group. There were no significant differences in hemorrhagic complications between the 2 groups. The DA group showed a lower rate of 90-day mortality (9.9% vs 27.8%; P = .004)., Conclusion: In patients with DMVOs, DA with a distal dedicated reperfusion catheter appears to demonstrate better safety and efficacy when compared with the CT using the same catheter., (Copyright © Congress of Neurological Surgeons 2024.

- Abstract
Education in basic life support is widely proposed to increase survival in out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest. The authors aimed to assess knowledge, skills, and attitudes, including willingness to help, regarding myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac arrest among university students of all fields of knowledge., Methods: An Ethical Research Committee approved this cross-sectional study. An electronic survey "KIDS SAVE LIVES BRAZIL" was sent to 58,862 students of 82 disciplines in three universities, aged ≥ 18 years. The survey covered three categories: knowledge, skills, and attitude. Each category was graded between 0 and 10 points (the highest)., Results: Among students, 4,803 undergraduates (8.2 %) answered the survey, and were divided into three groups of disciplines: medicine (219, ∼21.7 years, 38 % male), other-healthcare (n = 1,058; ∼22.9 years; 36 % male), and non-health-care (n = 3,526; ∼22.9 years; 35 % male). All three groups showed significant differences between them (p < 0.001). The non-health-care compared with medicine and other healthcare groups showed, respectively, the lowest median scores (25 %‒75 %) in knowledge (4.0 [0.0‒9.3], 4.0 [4.0‒8.0], and 4.0 [4.0‒4.7]), skills (2.4 [1.2‒3.3], 6.4 [4.0‒8.3], 4.0 [2.4‒6.2]), and attitude (5.9 [5.9‒6.8], 7.3 [5.9‒7.3], and 7.3 [5.9‒7.3])., Conclusion: University students who answered the e-survey have the willingness to help victims suffering from myocardial infarction or sustaining sudden cardiac arrest. However, non healthcare students markedly lack the knowledge and skills to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation and automated external defibrillation. These findings reveal a stark difference in basic life support competencies between students in related healthcare fields and those in non-health fields, emphasizing the need for universal basic life support training., Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest Federico Semeraro is Chair-Elect of the European Resuscitation Council and an Emeritus Member of the ILCOR BLS Task Force.

- Abstract
Background and Purpose: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) along with emergent carotid stent placement (eCAS) has been suggested to have a greater benefit in patients with tandem lesions (TL), compared with other strategies of treatment. Nonetheless, there is no agreement on whether the intracranial occlusion should be treated before the cervical ICA lesion, or vice versa. In this retrospective multicenter study, we sought to compare clinical and procedural outcomes of the 2 different treatment approaches in patients with TL., Materials and Methods: The prospective databases of 17 comprehensive stroke centers were screened for consecutive patients with TL who received MT and eCAS. Patients were divided in 2 groups based on whether they received MT before eCAS (MT-first approach) or eCAS before MT (eCAS-first approach). Propensity score matching was used to estimate the effect of the retrograde-versus-anterograde approach on procedure-related and clinical outcome measures. These included the modified TICI score 2b-3, other procedure-related parameters and adverse events after the endovascular procedure, and the ordinal distribution of the 90-day mRS scores., Results: A total of 295 consecutive patients were initially enrolled. Among them, 208 (70%) received MT before eCAS. After propensity score matching, 56 pairs of patients were available for analysis. In the matched population, the MT-first approach resulted in a higher rate of successful intracranial recanalization (91% versus 73% in the eCAS-first approach, P = .025) and a mean shorter groin-to-reperfusion time (72 [SD, 38] minutes versus 93 [SD, 50] minutes in the anterograde approach, P = .017). Despite a higher rate of efficient recanalization in the MT-first group, we did not observe a significant difference regarding the ordinal distribution of the 90-day mRS scores. Rates of procedure-related adverse events and the occurrence of both parenchymal hemorrhage types 1 and 2 were comparable., Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that in patients with TL undergoing endovascular treatment, prioritizing the intracranial occlusion is associated with an increased rate of efficient MT and faster recanalization time. However, this strategy does not have an advantage in long-term clinical outcome. Future controlled studies are needed to determine the optimal treatment technique., (© 2025 by American Journal of Neuroradiology.)

- Abstract
Background: This study aimed to define clusters of disease activity and prognostic factors of disease course in a well-characterized cohort of children with Crohn's disease (CD)., Methods: All patients from the SIGENP IBD (Italian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition Inflammatory Bowel Disease) registry with a 5-year follow-up and 6-monthly evaluation were included. Active disease was defined for each semester as follows: clinical activity (weighted Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index ≥12.5 or Mucosal Inflammation Noninvasive Index ≥8) and active disease on endoscopy (Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease >3 or fecal calprotectin >250 µg/g) or imaging. Formula-based clusters were generated based on previously published patterns in adults., Results: Data from 332 patients were analyzed. A total of 105 (32%) experienced a quiescent disease course; 49 (15%) and 31 (9%) a moderate-to-severe chronically active and chronic intermittent disease, respectively; 104 (31%) and 43 (13%) had active disease in the first 2 years after diagnosis and remission thereafter and vice versa, respectively. Surgery at diagnosis was significantly associated with a quiescent course (odds ratio [OR], 10.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.05-25.22; P=.0005), while growth impairment at the diagnosis and active disease requiring corticosteroids at 6 months were inversely related to the quiescent group (OR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.27-0.81; P= .007; and OR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.16-0.71; P= .005, respectively). Perianal involvement at diagnosis and moderate-severe activity at 6 months correlated with disease progression (OR, 3.85; 95% CI, 1.20-12.85; P=.02)., Conclusions: During the first 5 years of follow-up, one-third of children with CD experience a quiescent course. However, another one-third have a moderate-to-severe disease course. Surgery at the diagnosis is related to a quiescent course, while growth impairment and lack of response to induction therapy correlate with more severe disease activity during follow-up., (© The Author(s) 2023.

- Abstract
Introduction: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a neglected complication in patients with pre-diabetes or diabetes mellitus (DM)., Areas Covered: A summary and review of the role of standard ED treatment and the contribution of lifestyle modification and hypoglycemic drugs., Expert Opinion: Oral phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) represent the first-line therapy even in patients with DM. Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is mandatory in all hypogonadal (total testosterone < 12 nmol/l) subjects. Alprostadil and/or combined approaches can be considered when PED5i with or without TRT fail. The glycometabolic optimization through lifestyle modification and the use of hypoglycemic drugs represents a crucial step, even for ED treatment. Considering the strong association between ED and forthcoming cardiovascular diseases, the selection of glucagon-like peptide type 1 analogues or sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors seems to represent the best option due to their long-term effect on chronic complication prevention. Metformin can be considered a possible alternative in less complicated subjects. Penile prostheses (PP) can be offered when all other options are not effective, but the patients should be informed that poor glycometabolic control can increase the risk of PP infection.

- Abstract
Recognizing non-invasive growth patterns is necessary for correct diagnosis, invasive size determination and pT-stage in resected non-small cell lung carcinoma. Due to iatrogenic collapse after resection, the distinction between adenocarcinoma in-situ (AIS) and invasive adenocarcinoma may be difficult. The aim of this study is to investigate the complex morphology of non-mucinous non-invasive patterns of AIS in resection specimen with iatrogenic collapse, and to relate this to follow-up. The effects of iatrogenic collapse on the morphology of collapsed AIS were simulated in a mathematical model. Three dimensional related criteria applied in a modified classification, using also cytokeratin 7 and elastin as additional stains, in two independent retrospective cohorts of primary pulmonary adenocarcinomas ≤3 cm resection specimen with available follow-up information. The model demonstrated that infolding of alveolar walls occurs during iatrogenic collapse and lead to a significant increase in tumor cell heights in maximal collapse areas, compared to less collapsed areas. The morphology of infolded AIS overlaps with patterns described as papillary and acinar adenocarcinoma according to the WHO classification, necessitating an adaptation. The modified classification incorporates recognition of iatrogenic and biologic collapse, tangential cutting effect true invasion and surrogate markers of invasion i.e. grey zone, covering a multilayering falling short of micropapillary, cribriform and solid alveolar filling growth. The use of elastin and CK7 staining aids in the morphologic recognition of iatrogenic collapsed AIS and the distinction from invasive adenocarcinoma. Out of a total of 70 resection specimens 1 case was originally classified as AIS and 9 were reclassified as iatrogenic collapsed AIS. Patients with collapsed AIS showed a 100 % recurrence-free survival after a mean follow-up time of 69.5 months. With the current WHO classification, AIS is overdiagnosed as invasive adenocarcinoma due to infolding. The modified classification facilitates the diagnosis of AIS., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare the following financial interests/personal relationships which may be considered as potential competing interests: Andreas schonau is developer of the pathogate website.

- Abstract
Background: Randomized controlled trials suggest that prophylactic doses of anticoagulants effectively prevent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in hospitalized medical patients with high thromboembolic risk. However, no prospective studies exist regarding the real-world prevalence of prophylactic anticoagulant use. This prospective study aimed to determine the rate and predictors of thromboprophylaxis in an unselected population of patients hospitalized in medical departments., Methods: We conducted a multicenter prospective observational study (AURELIO - rAte of venous thrombosis in acutely iLl patIents hOspitalized) to assess the rate of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in unselected acutely ill patients hospitalized in medical wards using compression ultrasound (CUS) at admission and discharge. Additionally, we evaluated the rate of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis administration in this population and analyzed the thrombotic risk by assessing RAMs (Risk Assessment Models) such as the IMPROVE-VTE and PADUA scores following the clinician's decision to administer thromboprophylaxis. Patients with IMPROVE-VTE scores ≥3 and/or PADUA scores ≥4 were classified as high thrombotic risk; those with IMPROVE-VTE scores <3 and/or PADUA scores <4 were classified as low risk., Results: We recruited 2371 patients (1233 males [52 %] and 1138 females [48 %]; mean age 72 ± 16 years). The median length of hospitalization was 13 ± 12 days. Overall, 442/2371 (18.6 %) patients received prophylactic parenteral anticoagulants (subcutaneous low weight molecular heparin or fondaparinux once daily) at admission. Assessing the thrombotic risk of the population recruited 1016 (42.9 %) patients were classified as high risk and 1354 (57.1 %) were low risk. Among high-risk patients, 339/1016 (33.4 %) received anticoagulant prophylaxis compared to 103/1354 (7.6 %) low-risk patients. During hospitalization, 9 patients developed DVT, comprising 7 asymptomatic and 2 symptomatic cases of proximal DVT. Of these, 3 patients were on anticoagulant prophylaxis, while 6 were not. Among the high-risk population, 7 out of 1016 patients (0.7 %) experienced proximal DVT during hospitalization, with 2 out of these 7 (28 %) receiving anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis. In the low-risk population, 2 out of 1354 patients (0.2 %) developed DVT, with 1 out of these 2 (50 %) receiving anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis. Age, heart or respiratory failure, pneumonia, active neoplasia, previous VTE, reduced mobility, and absence of kidney failure were more frequent in patients receiving prophylaxis. Multivariable logistic regression identified age (RR 1.010; CI 95 % 1002-1019; p = 0.015), heart/respiratory failure (RR 1.609; CI 95 % 1248-2075; p < 0.0001), active neoplasia (RR 2.041; CI 95 % 1222-2141; p < 0.0001), pneumonia (RR 1.618; CI 95 % 1557-2676; p < 0.0001), previous VTE (RR 1.954; CI 95 % 1222-3125; p < 0.0001), and reduced mobility (RR 4.674; CI 95 % 3700-5905; p < 0.0001) as independent predictors of thromboprophylaxis., Conclusions: This study, conducted without pre-established thromboembolic risk scores, offers a comprehensive view of venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in medical patients with acute conditions hospitalized in internal medicine departments. It reveals that advanced age, heart or respiratory failure, active cancer, pneumonia, previous VTE, and reduced mobility are predictors that may influence the decision to administer thromboprophylaxis in these patients., 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 © 2024 The Authors.

- Abstract
Background: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) was found to be beneficial in acute ischemic stroke patients with anterior tandem occlusion (a-TO). Instead, little is known about the effectiveness of MT in stroke patients with posterior tandem occlusion (p-TO). We aimed to compare MT within 24 h from last known well time in ischemic stroke patients with p-TO versus a-TO., Methods: We conducted a cohort study on prospectively collected data of patients registered in the Italian Registry of Endovascular Treatment in Acute Stroke (IRETAS) who were treated with MT within 24 h from last known well time for acute ischemic stroke with p-TO (n = 275) or a-TO (n = 1853)., Results: After adjustment for unbalanced pre-procedure variables (year 2015-2021, age, sex, NIHSS score, ASPECTS, and time strata for puncture groin) and pre-stroke mRS score as pre-defined predictor, p-TO was significantly associated with lower probability of mRS score 0-2 (OR 0.415, 95% CI 0.268-0.644) and with higher risk of death (OR 2.813, 95% CI 2.080-3.805) at 3 months. After adjustment for unbalanced procedural and post-procedure variables (IVT, general anesthesia, TICI 3, and 24-h HT) and pre-stroke mRS score as pre-defined predictor, association between p-TO and lower probability of mRS score 0-2 (OR 0.444, 95% CI 0.304-0.649) and association between p-TO and with higher risk of death (OR 2.971, 95% CI 1.993-4.429) remained significant., Conclusions: MT within 24 h from last known well time in ischemic stroke patients with p-TO versus a-TO was associated with worse outcomes at 3 months., (© 2024.

- Abstract
Introduction: To offer an extensive retrospective experience on the management of male breast cancer., Methods: A multicenter retrospective observational cohort study was conducted, including male patients diagnosed with breast cancer (invasive or in situ) in 12 Italian breast units from January 1975 to December 2019. Patients aged 18 years or older were assessed for eligibility. Exclusion criteria were metastatic cancer at diagnosis, previous cancer(s), received neoadjuvant treatment, incomplete data on (neo) adjuvant treatment(s), and/or follow-up data. Data on radiological examinations, demographic characteristics, risk factors, histological features, receptor status, treatments, and follow-up were collected., Results: In a series of 671 male patients with breast cancer assessed for eligibility, 403 (28 in situ and 375 invasive neoplasms) were included in the study. All included patients underwent surgery. The median age at surgery was 63.8 years (IQR 56.1-72.1). In 68% of cases, patients underwent echography, and in 55.1%, a mammography. Most patients were ER and PR positive (63.8%), HER2 negative (80.4%), with high (≥ 20%) Ki67 values (61.3%), and luminal B subtype (51.1%). The 10-year overall survival was 73.6% (95% CI 67.0-79.1) for invasive breast cancer and 90% (95% CI 65.6-97.4) for in situ breast cancer. In patients with invasive breast cancer, at univariable analysis, having a G3 tumor (vs. G1), pT2/3/4 (vs. pT1), pN2/3 (vs. pN0), luminal B subtype with Ki67 ≥ 20% (vs. Luminal A), were significantly associated with a higher risk of death. In multivariable analyses, pT2/3/4 (vs. pT1) remained significantly associated with a higher risk of death (HR 3.14, 95% CI 1.83-5.39), and having a HER2 positive or a triple-negative subtype (vs. Luminal A) was also significantly associated with a higher risk of mortality (HR 4.76, 95% CI 1.26-18.1)., Conclusion: Male breast cancer is a rare disease, the better understanding of which is necessary for a more effective diagnostic and therapeutic approach., (© 2024.

- Abstract
Background: The widespread diffusion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms is revolutionizing how health-related information is disseminated, thereby highlighting the need for tools to evaluate the quality of such information. This study aimed to propose and validate the Quality Assessment of Medical Artificial Intelligence (QAMAI), a tool specifically designed to assess the quality of health information provided by AI platforms., Methods: The QAMAI tool has been developed by a panel of experts following guidelines for the development of new questionnaires. A total of 30 responses from ChatGPT4, addressing patient queries, theoretical questions, and clinical head and neck surgery scenarios were assessed by 27 reviewers from 25 academic centers worldwide. Construct validity, internal consistency, inter-rater and test-retest reliability were assessed to validate the tool., Results: The validation was conducted on the basis of 792 assessments for the 30 responses given by ChatGPT4. The results of the exploratory factor analysis revealed a unidimensional structure of the QAMAI with a single factor comprising all the items that explained 51.1% of the variance with factor loadings ranging from 0.449 to 0.856. Overall internal consistency was high (Cronbach's alpha = 0.837). The Interclass Correlation Coefficient was 0.983 (95% CI 0.973-0.991; F (29,542) = 68.3; p < 0.001), indicating excellent reliability. Test-retest reliability analysis revealed a moderate-to-strong correlation with a Pearson's coefficient of 0.876 (95% CI 0.859-0.891; p < 0.001)., Conclusions: The QAMAI tool demonstrated significant reliability and validity in assessing the quality of health information provided by AI platforms. Such a tool might become particularly important/useful for physicians as patients increasingly seek medical information on AI platforms., (© 2024. The Author(s).)

- Abstract
Background: Acute intracranial occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) can be distinguished into (a) occlusion of the terminal ICA, involving the proximal segments of the middle or anterior cerebral artery (ICA-L/-T) and (b) non-terminal intracranial occlusions of the ICA with patent circle of Willis (ICA-I). While patients with ICA-L/-T occlusion were included in all randomized controlled trials on endovascular therapy (EVT) in anterior large vessel occlusion, data on EVT in ICA-I occlusion is scarce. We thus aimed to evaluate effectiveness and safety of EVT in ICA-I occlusions in comparison to ICA-L/-T occlusions., Methods: A large international multicentre cohort was searched for patients with intracranial ICA occlusion treated with EVT between 2014 and 2023. Patients were stratified by ICA occlusion pattern, differentiating ICA-I and ICA-L/-T occlusions. Baseline factors, technical (modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) scale) and functional outcomes (modified Rankin scale [mRS] at 3 months) as well as rates of (symptomatic) intracranial hemorrhage ([s]ICH) were analyzed., Results: Of 13,453 patients, 1825 (13.6%) had isolated ICA occlusion. ICA-occlusion pattern was ICA-I in 559 (4.2%) and ICA-L/-T in 1266 (9.4%) patients. Age (years: 74 vs 73), sex (female: 45.8% vs 49.0%) and pre-stroke functional independency (pre-mRS ⩽ 2: 89.9% vs 92.2%) did not differ between the groups. Stroke severity was lower in ICA-I patients (NIHSS at admission: 14 [7-19] vs 17 [13-21] points). EVT was similarly successful with respect to technical (mTICI2b/3: 76.1% (ICA-I) vs 76.6% (ICA-L/-T); aOR 1.01 [0.76-1.35]) and functional outcome (mRS ordinal shift cOR 1.01 [0.83-1.23] in adjusted analyses. Rates of ICH (18.9% vs 34.5%; aOR 0.47 [0.36-0.62] and sICH (4.7% vs 7.3%; aOR 0.58 [0.35-0.97] were lower in ICA-I patients., Conclusion: EVT might be performed safely and similarly successful in patients with ICA-I occlusions as in patients with ICA-L/-T occlusions., Competing Interests: Declaration of conflicting interestThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: RRL received speaker honoraria from IscemaView, Boehringer Ingelheim, Pfizer, Jansen, Biogen, Medtronic and Abott and advisory board honoraria from Jansen and Bayer.STE has received funding for travel or speaker honoraria from Bayer, Boehringer Ingelheim and Daiichi-Sankyo.

- Abstract
This study evaluates the quality and readability of informed consent documents generated by AI platforms ChatGPT-4 and Bard Gemini Advanced compared to those written by a first-year oral surgery resident for common oral surgery procedures. The evaluation, conducted by 18 experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeons, assessed consents for accuracy, completeness, readability, and overall quality. ChatGPT-4 consistently outperformed both Bard and human-written consents. ChatGPT-4 consents had a median accuracy score of 4 [IQR 4-4], compared to Bard's 3 [IQR 3-4] and human's 4 [IQR 3-4]. Completeness scores were higher for ChatGPT-4 (4 [IQR 4-5]) than Bard (3 [IQR 3-4]) and human (4 [IQR 3-4]). Readability was also superior for ChatGPT-4, with a median score of 4 [IQR 4-5] compared to Bard and human consents, both at 4 [IQR 4-4] and 4 [IQR 3-4], respectively. The Gunning Fog Index for ChatGPT-4 was 17.2 [IQR 16.5-18.2], better than Bard's 23.1 [IQR 20.5-24.7] and the human consents' 20 [IQR 19.2-20.9]. Overall, ChatGPT-4's consents received the highest quality ratings, underscoring AI's potential in enhancing patient communication and the informed consent process. The study suggests AI can reduce misinformation risks and improve patient understanding, but continuous evaluation, oversight, and patient feedback integration are crucial to ensure the effectiveness and appropriateness of AI-generated content in clinical practice., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest All authors report no conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors.

- Abstract
Gastrointestinal involvement (GI) is a frequent and troublesome complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), whose etiology is poorly understood, though it is hypothesized that autoimmunity and progressive vasculopathy may play a role. Vasculopathy is considered one of the main pathogenetic pathways responsible for many of the clinical manifestations of SSc, and, therefore, studying the principal splanchnic vessels (i.e., superior mesenteric artery-SMA and inferior mesenteric artery-IMA) with Doppler Ultrasound (DUS) may provide further insights into measuring the progression of vasculopathy, evaluating its possible association with SSc GI symptoms, and determining whether it plays a role in the development or severity of SSc GI disease. A cohort of SSc patients consecutively recruited underwent DUS examination, and associations with GI (UCLA-GIT 2.0 questionnaire) and extraintestinal SSc characteristics were evaluated. Semiquantitative DUS parameters (resistive index-RI and pulsatility index-PI), were applied for splanchnic vessel assessment in SSc patients and healthy subjects (HS). Moreover, a review and meta-analysis of the literature to understand which the values of the main semiquantitative DUS parameters (RI and PI) are both in SSc patients and HS has been conducted. Seventy-eight patients completed DUS examinations and clinical assessments. 30 (39%) were classified as diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSC), 35 (45%) as limited cutaneous SSc (lcSSc) and 13 (17%) as sine scleroderma. A significant difference was found both for SMA RI (p for trend = 0.032) and SMA PI (p for trend = 0.004) between patients with sine scleroderma, lcSSc and dcSSc, with lower values observed in the sine scleroderma and lcSSc groups. IMA RI and PI were significantly correlated with GI symptoms such as fecal incontinence (ῥ - 0.33, p = 0.008 and ῥ - 0.30, p = 0.021, respectively). By multivariate analysis, significant associations were confirmed between SMA RI and SMA PI and mRSS (β 0.248, p = 0.030 and β 2.995, p = 0.004, respectively) and with bosentan (β 0.400, p = 0.003 and β 3.508, p = 0.001, respectively), but not with anticentromere antibody (ACA). No significant differences were found between the weighted median values of SMA RI and SMA PI of SSc patients compared to those of HS that were derived from the meta-analysis of the literature (p = 0.72 and p = 0.64, respectively). This cross-sectional study confirms that the splanchnic vasculature of SSc patients can noninvasively been studied with DUS. Vascular splanchnic involvement correlates with the presence and/or severity of specific clinical features in SSc, including GI. Larger and prospective studies are needed to confirm these preliminary observations and to examine the role of DUS in SSc-risk stratification and GI progression and to obtain definitive data regarding both HS and SSc patients splanchnic DUS parameters., (© 2024.

- Abstract
Background: Chronic constipation (CC) is one of the most common disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI). The management of CC requires specific skills due to its complex and multifactorial pathophysiology and its multistep treatment. The aims of this study were to evaluate the availability and the use of diagnostic tools for CC in Italy and the therapeutic management of CC by Italian gastroenterologists (GEs). Methods: A survey was conducted during the 28th meeting of the Italian Federation of Digestive Disease Societies (FISMAD; Rome, Italy, 11-14 May 2022). The survey explored the presence of a clinic dedicated to DGBIs, the availability and the use of specific diagnostic tools, the routine use of digital rectal examination (DRE), and the therapeutic approach to CC by Italian GEs. Results: The survey was taken by 236 GEs. The most significant results were that 42% of respondents had a clinic dedicated to DGBI in their institute; DRE was regularly performed by 56.8% of GEs when evaluating a CC patient; young GEs (≤40 years) performed DRE less frequently than older ones ( p < 0.001); anorectal manometry was available to 44.3% of GEs; balloon expulsion test (BET) was available to 19.1% of GEs; GEs with a clinic dedicated to DGBI had more frequent access to anorectal physiology testing ( p < 0.001); diet and lifestyle advice were the most frequently prescribed treatments; and fiber and macrogol were the second and third most prescribed treatments, respectively. Conclusions: The survey provides an interesting picture of CC management by Italian GEs. The results are in line with previous data collected about 10 years ago among Italian GEs ("CHRO.CO.DI.T.E study"); DRE is still rarely performed by Italian GEs (particularly by young GEs). The availability of anorectal physiology testing is still limited, and BET, which could be easily performed in everyday clinical settings, is rarely performed. Lifestyle suggestions, macrogol and fiber are the preferred treatment, as recommended by all guidelines. These results will be useful to identify as yet unmet educational needs and critical issues to improve CC management.

- Abstract
Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy has reshaped the treatment landscape for resectable NSCLC, yet the prognostic significance of pathologic response remains unclear. We conducted a systematic review and individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of achieving pathologic complete response (pCR) or major pathologic response (MPR) on event-free survival (EFS) and assessed the influence of adjuvant immunotherapy., Methods: We performed an IPD meta-analysis of prospective clinical trials on neoadjuvant or perioperative anti-programmed death-ligand 1 in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with resectable NSCLC. The IPD was extracted from Kaplan-Meier curves for pCR and MPR from the included studies. Survival outcomes were compared between patients achieving pCR or MPR and those who did not, considering both intention-to-treat and resected populations., Results: Achieving pCR or MPR was associated with improved EFS in the intention-to-treat population (pCR, hazard ratio = 0.13; MPR, hazard ratio = 0.18, respectively) with a 24 months EFS rate of 94% and 88% for patients who achieved pCR and MPR, respectively. Independently from pCR status, patients who were treated in an experimental arm that included adjuvant immunotherapy had similar EFS., Conclusions: Our study reported a strong EFS improvement in patients who achieved either pCR or MPR after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy. The use of adjuvant immunotherapy after tumor resection was not associated with improved EFS., Competing Interests: Disclosure The authors declare no conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer.

- Abstract
Background: In patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), inappropriate therapies (ITs) are often caused by supraventricular tachyarrhythmias (SVTs)., Objective: We aimed to estimate the incidence of IT in modern single-lead ICDs., Methods: The THINGS study enrolled patients with single-lead ICDs with 2 SVT discrimination modalities: dual chamber (DC) with an atrial floating dipole or single chamber (SC) with morphology criterion. All devices were programmed with 2-zone therapy: ventricular tachycardia (VT) zone from 170 beats/min with ≥15 seconds (≥36 beats) detection time and SVT discriminators; and ventricular fibrillation (VF) zone from 214 beats/min with ≥7 seconds (≥24 beats) detection time. The primary end point was the first occurrence of IT, adjudicated by an independent board., Results: A total of 526 patients (median age, 66 years; 83% male), 183 (34.8%) with DC and 343 (65.2%) with SC discrimination, were observed for a median of 2.2 years. The incidence rate of IT was 4.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.7%-6.4%) at 1 year and 7.1% (95% CI, 5.0%-9.9%) at 2 years. Younger age (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.95-0.99; P = .013) and history of atrial fibrillation (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.67; 95% CI, 1.30-5.46; P = .007) were significantly associated with increased IT risk. In a propensity score-matched comparison, DC discrimination showed a trend toward reduced IT rates compared with SC discrimination in the VT zone (1-year incidence, 1.8% vs 3.5%; P = .105)., Conclusion: High-rate VF cutoff and prolonged detection time programming resulted in a low IT rate in single-lead ICD patients with modern SVT discriminators. A trend favoring the DC system was observed in the VT zone., Competing Interests: Disclosures Mauro Biffi has held educational activity and participated in speakers bureau on behalf of Abbott, Boston Scientific, Biotronik, Medtronic, and Philips.

- Abstract
Background: Whether primary sclerosing cholangitis related to inflammatory bowel disease (PSC-IBD) diagnosed before 6 years (ie, VEO-IBD) has a distinct phenotype and disease course is uninvestigated. We aimed to analyze the characteristics and natural history of VEO-PSC-IBD, compared with early and adolescent-onset PSC-IBD., Methods: This is a multicenter, retrospective, case-control study from 15 centers affiliated with the Porto and Interest IBD group of ESPGHAN. Demographic, clinical, laboratory, endoscopic, and imaging data were collected at baseline and every 6 months. Inflammatory bowel disease-related (clinical remission, need for systemic steroids and biologics, and surgery) and PSC-related (biliary and portal hypertensive complications, need for treatment escalation and liver transplantation, cholangiocarcinoma, or death) outcomes were compared between the 2 groups., Results: Sixty-nine children were included, with a median follow-up of 3.63 years (interquartile range, 1-11): 28 with VEO-PSC-IBD (23 UC [82%], 2 IBD-U [7%] and 3 [11%] CD), and 41 with PSC-IBD (37 UC [90%], 3 IBDU [7.5%] and 1 [2.5%] CD). Most patients with UC presented with pancolitis (92% in VEO-PSC-UC vs 85% in PSC-UC, P = .2). A higher number of patients with VEO-PSC-IBD were diagnosed with PSC/autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome than older children (24 [92%] vs 27 [67.5%] PSC-IBD, P = .03), whereas no other differences were found for PSC-related variables. Time to biliary strictures and infective cholangitis was lower in the VEO-PSC-IBD group (P = .01 and P = .04, respectively), while no difference was found for other outcomes. No cases of cholangiocarcinoma were reported., Conclusions: Primary sclerosing cholangitis related to inflammatory bowel disease has similar baseline characteristics whether diagnosed as VEO-IBD or thereafter. A milder disease course in terms of biliary complications characterizes VEO-PSC-IBD., (© The Author(s) 2023. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation.

- Abstract
Abstract: In patients on oral anticoagulant (OAC) therapy undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent, international guidelines endorse the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) rather than vitamin K antagonists (VKA) and dual antithrombotic therapy (DAT) rather than triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT). The aim of this study was to evaluate contemporary real-world data on antithrombotic regimens and outcome in patients on OAC undergoing PCI with stent. Consecutive patients on OAC undergoing PCI were enrolled in the multicenter, prospective, observational PERSEO registry (NCT03392948). Primary end point was net adverse clinical events (NACE) with VKA versus DOAC, whereas a secondary prespecified end point was NACE with DAT versus TAT both at 1-year follow-up. From February 2018 to February 2022; in total, 1234 consecutive patients were included. The main indication for OAC was atrial fibrillation (86%), and the mean CHA 2 DS 2 VASc and HAS-BLED scores were 4 ± 2 and 3.6 ± 1, respectively. Of the 1228 patients discharged alive, 222 (18%) were on VKA and 1006 (82%) on DOAC ( P < 0.01). DAT was employed in 197 patients whereas TAT in 1028. At follow-up, NACE rate was significantly higher than VKA compared with DOAC (23% vs. 16%, P = 0.013) and confirmed after propensity score adjustment. TAT and DAT did not differ as regards NACE rate (17% vs. 19%, P = 0.864) although, compared with TAT, DAT was associated with less major bleedings (2% vs. 5%, P = 0.014), confirmed after propensity score adjustment. In conclusion, in patients on OAC undergoing PCI, DOAC, compared with VKA, was associated with a significantly lower occurrence of NACE and DAT reduced bleedings compared with TAT., (Copyright © 2024 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

- Abstract
Objective: For patients with T1b gallbladder cancer or greater, an adequate lymphadenectomy should include at least 6 nodes. Studies comparing short- and long-term outcomes of the open approach with those of laparoscopy and robotic approaches are limited, with small sample sizes, and there are none comparing laparoscopic and robotic approaches. This study compared patients who underwent robotic, laparoscopic, and open resection of gallbladder cancer, evaluating short- and long-term outcomes., Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective study of patients with T1b gallbladder cancer or greater (excluding combined organ resection and T4) who underwent open, laparoscopic, and robotic liver resection and lymphadenectomy between January 2012 and December 2022. The 3 groups were matched in terms of patient baseline and disease characteristics based on propensity score matching, comparing robotic with open and robotic with laparoscopic groups., Results: We enrolled 575 patients from 37 institutions. After propensity score matching, the median number of harvested nodes was higher in the robotic group than in the open (7 vs 5; P = .0150) and laparoscopic groups (7 vs 4; P < .001). The Pringle maneuver time was shorter with robotic resection than with laparoscopy (38 vs 59 minutes; P = .0034), and the robotic group also had a lower conversion rate (3% vs 14%, respectively; P = .005) and less estimated blood loss than open and laparoscopic resections. The perioperative morbidity and mortality rates did not differ. The robotic and laparoscopic approaches were associated with faster functional recovery than the open group. In the multivariate analysis, the factors related to the retrieval of at least 6 nodes were the robotic approach over open (odds ratio, 5.1529) and over laparoscopy (odds ratio, 6.7289) and the center experience (≥20 minimally invasive liver resections/year) (odds ratio, 4.962). After a mean follow-up of 42.6 months, overall survival and disease-free survival were not different between groups., Conclusion: Compared with open and laparoscopic surgeries, the robotic approach for gallbladder cancer performed in a center with appropriate experience in minimally invasive surgery can provide adequate node retrieval., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.

- Abstract
Background & Aims: Recurrent primary biliary cholangitis (rPBC) develops in approximately 30% of patients and negatively impacts graft and overall patient survival after liver transplantation (LT). There is a lack of data regarding the response rate to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in rPBC. We evaluated a large, international, multi-center cohort to assess the performance of PBC scores in predicting the risk of graft and overall survival after LT in patients with rPBC., Methods: A total of 332 patients with rPBC after LT were evaluated from 28 centers across Europe, North and South America. The median age at the time of rPBC was 58.0 years [IQR 53.2-62.6], and 298 patients (90%) were female. The biochemical response was measured with serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bilirubin, and Paris-2, GLOBE and UK-PBC scores at 1 year after UDCA initiation., Results: During a median follow-up of 8.7 years [IQR 4.3-12.9] after rPBC diagnosis, 52 patients (16%) had graft loss and 103 (31%) died. After 1 year of UDCA initiation the histological stage at rPBC (hazard ratio [HR] 3.97, 95% CI 1.36-11.55, p = 0.01), use of prednisone (HR 3.18, 95% CI 1.04-9.73, p = 0.04), ALP xULN (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.26-2.01, p <0.001), Paris-2 criteria (HR 4.14, 95% CI 1.57-10.92, p = 0.004), GLOBE score (HR 2.82, 95% CI 1.71-4.66, p <0.001), and the UK-PBC score (HR 1.06, 95% CI 1.03-1.09, p <0.001) were associated with graft survival in the multivariate analysis. Similar results were observed for overall survival., Conclusion: Patients with rPBC and disease activity, as indicated by standard PBC risk scores, have impaired outcomes, supporting efforts to treat recurrent disease in similar ways to pre-transplant PBC., Impact and Implications: One in three people who undergo liver transplantation for primary biliary cholangitis develop recurrent disease in their new liver. Patients with recurrent primary biliary cholangitis and incomplete response to ursodeoxycholic acid, according to conventional prognostic scores, have worse clinical outcomes, with higher risk of graft loss and mortality in similar ways to the disease before liver transplantation. Our results supportsupport efforts to treat recurrent disease in similar ways to pre-transplant primary biliary cholangitis., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
