Abstract: COVID-19 negatively affected surgical activity, but the potential benefits resulting from adopted measures remain unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the change in surgical activity and potential benefit from COVID-19 measures in perspective of Italian surgeons on behalf of SPIGC. A nationwide online survey on surgical practice before, during, and after COVID-19 pandemic was conducted in March–April 2022 (NCT:05323851). Effects of COVID-19 hospital-related measures on surgical patients’ management and personal professional development across surgical specialties were explored. Data on demographics, pre-operative/peri-operative/post-operative management, and professional development were collected. Outcomes were matched with the corresponding volume. Four hundred and seventy-three respondents were included in final analysis across 14 surgical specialties. Since SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, application of telematic consultations (4.1% vs. 21.6%; p < 0.0001) and diagnostic evaluations (16.4% vs. 42.2%; p < 0.0001) increased. Elective surgical activities significantly reduced and surgeons opted more frequently for conservative management with a possible indication for elective (26.3% vs. 35.7%; p < 0.0001) or urgent (20.4% vs. 38.5%; p < 0.0001) surgery. All new COVID-related measures are perceived to be maintained in the future. Surgeons’ personal education online increased from 12.6% (pre-COVID) to 86.6% (post-COVID; p < 0.0001). Online educational activities are considered a beneficial effect from COVID pandemic (56.4%). COVID-19 had a great impact on surgical specialties, with significant reduction of operation volume. However, some forced changes turned out to be benefits. Isolation measures pushed the use of telemedicine and telemetric devices for outpatient practice and favored communication for educational purposes and surgeon–patient/family communication. From the Italian surgeons’ perspective, COVID-related measures will continue to influence

Abstract: In the last decade, the emergence of effective systemic therapies (ESTs) in the form of both targeted and immuno-based therapies has revolutionized the treatment of patients with advanced stage III and stage IV melanoma. Even though lungs represent the most frequent site of melanoma metastases, only limited data are available on the role of surgery in isolated pulmonary metastases from malignant melanoma (PmMM) in the era of ESTs. The aim of this study is to describe the outcomes of patients who underwent metastasectomy of PmMM in the era of ESTs, in order to identify prognostic factors affecting survival and to provide a framework for more informed patient selection of treatmeant with lung surgery in the future. Clinical data of 183 patients who underwent metastasectomy of PmMM between June 2008 and June 2021 were collected among four Italian Thoracic Centers. The main clinical, surgical and oncological variables reviewed were: sex, comorbidities, previous oncological history, melanoma histotypes and primary site, date of primary cancer surgical treatment, melanoma growth phase, Breslow thickness, mutation pattern disease, stage at diagnosis, metastatic sites, DFI (Disease Free Interval), characteristics of lung metastases (number, side, dimension, type of resection), adjuvant therapy after lung metastasectomy, site of recurrence, disease-free survival (DFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS; defined as the time interval between the first melanoma resection or lung metastasectomy and death from cancer). All patients underwent surgical resection of the primary melanoma before lung metastasectomy. Twenty-six (14.2%) patients already had a synchronous lung metastasis at the time of primary melanoma diagnosis. A wedge resection was performed in 95.6% of cases to radically remove the pulmonary localizations, while an anatomical resection was necessary in the remaining cases. The incidence of major post-operative complications was null, while only 21 patients (11.5%) dev

Abstract: COVID-19 negatively affected surgical activity, but the potential benefits resulting from adopted measures remain unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the change in surgical activity and potential benefit from COVID-19 measures in perspective of Italian surgeons on behalf of SPIGC. A nationwide online survey on surgical practice before, during, and after COVID-19 pandemic was conducted in March–April 2022 (NCT:05323851). Effects of COVID-19 hospital-related measures on surgical patients’ management and personal professional development across surgical specialties were explored. Data on demographics, pre-operative/peri-operative/post-operative management, and professional development were collected. Outcomes were matched with the corresponding volume. Four hundred and seventy-three respondents were included in final analysis across 14 surgical specialties. Since SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, application of telematic consultations (4.1% vs. 21.6%; p < 0.0001) and diagnostic evaluations (16.4% vs. 42.2%; p < 0.0001) increased. Elective surgical activities significantly reduced and surgeons opted more frequently for conservative management with a possible indication for elective (26.3% vs. 35.7%; p < 0.0001) or urgent (20.4% vs. 38.5%; p < 0.0001) surgery. All new COVID-related measures are perceived to be maintained in the future. Surgeons’ personal education online increased from 12.6% (pre-COVID) to 86.6% (post-COVID; p < 0.0001). Online educational activities are considered a beneficial effect from COVID pandemic (56.4%). COVID-19 had a great impact on surgical specialties, with significant reduction of operation volume. However, some forced changes turned out to be benefits. Isolation measures pushed the use of telemedicine and telemetric devices for outpatient practice and favored communication for educational purposes and surgeon–patient/family communication. From the Italian surgeons’ perspective, COVID-related measures will continue to influence

Abstract: Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the disruption of surgical training. Lack of communication, guidelines for managing clinical activity as well as concerns for safety in the workplace appeared to be relevant issues. This study aims to investigate how surgical training has been reorganized in Italy, almost 2 years after the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and methods: A 16-item-electronic anonymous questionnaire was designed through SurveyMonkey© web application. This survey was composed of different sections concerning demographic characteristics and impacts of the second COVID-19 pandemic wave on surgical and research/didactic activities. Changes applied in the training programme and activities carried out were also investigated. The survey was carried out in the period between June and October 2021. Results: Four hundred and thirty responses were collected, and 399 were considered eligible to be included in the study analysis. Three hundred and thirty-five respondents continued working in Surgical Units, with a significant reduction (less than one surgical session per week) of surgical sessions in 49.6% of them. With concern to didactic and research activities, 140 residents maintained their usual activity, while 116 reported a reduction. A sub-group analysis on resident moved to COVID-19 departments showed a reduction of research activities in 35% of them. During the period considered in this survey, the surgical training program was not substantially modified for most of participants (74.6%). Conclusion: Our survey demonstrated that surgical residency programs haven't improved 2 years after the beginning of the pandemic. Further improvements are needed to guarantee completeness of surgical training, even in emergency conditions.

Abstract: Introduction Recently, Italy has been heavily hit by COVID-19 pandemic and today it is still one of the most affected countries in the world. The subsequent necessary lockdown decreed by the Italian Government had an outstanding impact on the daily life of the entire population, including that of Italian surgical residents’ activity. Our survey aims to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on the training programme of Italian surgical residents. Materials and methods We designed a 12-item-electronic anonymous questionnaire on SurveyMonkey© web application. The survey was composed of different sections concerning demographic characteristics and impacts of COVID-19 on the concrete participation in clinical, surgical and research activities. Future perspectives of responders after the pandemic were also investigated. Results Eighty hundred responses were collected, and 756 questionnaires were considered eligible to be included in the study analysis. Almost 35 and 27% of respondents experienced, respectively, complete interruption of surgical and clinical activities. A subgroup analysis, comparing the COVID-19 impact on clinical activities with demographics data, showed a statistically significant difference related to specialties (p = 0.0062) and Italian regions (p

Abstract: Purpose To report on the phenotype and the genotype of Italian patients carrying BEST1 mutations on both alleles. Methods Five Italian patients from four independent pedigrees with retinal dystrophy associated with biallelic BEST1 variants were recruited from different parts of Italy. Molecular genetic analysis of the BEST1 gene was performed with direct sequencing techniques. All the subjects included in the study were clinically evaluated with a standard ophthalmologic examination, fundus photography, optical coherence tomography scan, and electrophysiological investigations. Results: Six BEST1 variants were identified. Three, c.1699del (p.Glu557AsnfsX52), c.625delAAC (p.Asn179del), and c.139C>T (p.Arg47Cys), were novel, and three had already been reported in the literature, c.301C>A(p.Pro101Thr), c.934G>A (p.Asp312Asn), and c.638A>G (p.Glu213Gly). Four were missense mutations, and two were deletions. Only one BEST1 mutation was located within one of the four mutational clusters described in typical autosomal dominant Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD). Four patients showed a BVMD phenotype while one patient presented a clinical picture consistent with autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy (ARB). Conclusions: Biallelic BEST1 sequence variants can be associated with at least two different phenotypes: BVMD and ARB. The phenotypic result of the molecular changes probably depends on the characteristics and the combination of the different BEST1 mutations, but unknown modifying factors such as other genes or the environment may also play a role.

Abstract: Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is a unique form of the glycolytic enzyme enolase found exclusively in neurons and neuroendocrine tissues. Immunohistochemical techniques in which antineuron-specific enolase antibodies are used have made it possible to map out derivatives of the neural crest in humans. By using affinity-purified antibodies against NSE, we investigated whether the contribution of the neural crest cells to the development of the anterior ocular structures in the rat is similar to that in man. We found that filtration structures in rats show morphologically striking similarities with the analogous region of the human eye. Hence, the rat eye, with certain reservations, is a suitable model for experimental studies on ocular diseases that are characterized by chamber angle anomalies or congenital glaucoma

Subjects: NGS, diagnostic yield, multigene panels, inherited retinal dystrophie
Abstract: In recent years, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) opened a new way for the study of pathogenic mechanisms and for molecular diagnosis of inherited disorders. In the present work, we focused our attention on the inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs), a group of specific disorders of the retina, displaying a very high clinical and genetic heterogeneity, whose genetic diagnosis is not easily feasible. It represents a paradigmatic example for the integration of clinical and molecular examination toward precision medicine. In this paper, we discuss the use of targeted NGS resequencing of selected gene panels in a cohort of patients affected by IRDs. We tested the hypothesis to apply a selective approach based on a careful clinical examination. By this approach we reached a 66% overall detection rate for pathogenic variants, with a 52% diagnostic yield. Reduction of the efforts for validation and classification of variants is a clear advantage for the management of genetic testing in a clinical setting.

Abstract: Background: Gene therapy cannot be yet considered a far perspective, but a tangible therapeutic option in the field of retinal diseases. Although still confined in experimental settings, the preliminary results are promising and provide an overall scenario suggesting that we are not so far from the application of gene therapy in clinical settings. The main aim of this review is to provide a complete and updated overview of the current state of the art and of the future perspectives of gene therapy applied on retinal diseases.Methods: We carefully revised the entire literature to report all the relevant findings related to the experimental procedures and the future scenarios of gene therapy applied in retinal diseases. A clinical background and a detailed description of the genetic features of each retinal disease included are also reported.Results: The current literature strongly support the hope of gene therapy options developed for retinal diseases. Although being considered in advanced stages of investigation for some retinal diseases, such as choroideremia (CHM), retinitis pigmentosa (RP), and Leber's congenital amaurosis (LCA), gene therapy is still quite far from a tangible application in clinical practice for other retinal diseases.Conclusions: Gene therapy is an extremely promising therapeutic tool for retinal diseases. The experimental data reported in this review offer a strong hope that gene therapy will be effectively available in clinical practice in the next years.

Abstract: "BACKGROUND: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a multifactorial disease for which an involvement of alterations in the retinal ABC transporter gene (ABCA4) is still debated. Oxidative stress in retinal pigment epithelial cells has been postulated to contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. Mitochondrial ferritin (FtMt), an iron-sequestering protein, is expressed in cell types characterized by high metabolic activity and oxygen consumption, including human retina, suggesting a role in protecting mitochondria from iron-dependent oxidative damage. Based on these findings we wanted to investigate whether mutations in this gene could be found in AMD patients.. . METHODS: Mutational scanning of the FTMTgene was performed in a cohort of 50 patients affected by age-related macular degeneration. The ABCA4 gene was also scanned in one patient carrying an FtMt mutation. In silico analyses were carried out on the identified variants. The recombinant form of FtMt variant was expressed in Escherichia coli and biochemically characterized.. . RESULTS: One patient was found to be heterozygous for two previously unreported genetic changes: a complex FtMt mutation (c.437_450delinsCT: delAGGACATCAAGAAGinsCT) and a missense p.Leu973Phe (c.2919G>T) mutation in exon 20 of ABCA4. Computational analyses predicted a severe structural impairment for FtMt variant and a mild destabilizing effect for ABCA4. E. coli expression of recombinant FtMt variant yielded a highly insoluble protein that could not be renatured under in vitro conditions suitable for wild-type ferritins.. . CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that the FtMt mutation may determine a condition similar to haploinsufficiency resulting in a reduced protection from iron-dependent oxidative stress in mitochondria.. .

Abstract: Aims: To describe the clinical phenotype of X linked juvenile retinoschisis in eight Italian families with six different mutations in the XLRS1 gene. Methods: Complete ophthalmic examinations, electroretinography and A and B-scan standardised echography were performed in 18 affected males. The coding sequences of the XLRS1 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and directly sequenced on an automated sequencer. Results: Six different XLRS1 mutations were identified; two of these mutations Ile81Asn and the Trp122Cys, have not been previously described. The affected males showed an electronegative response to the standard white scotopic stimulus and a prolonged implicit time of the 30 Hz flicker. In the families with Trp112Cys and Trp122Cys mutations we observed a more severe retinoschisis (RS) clinical picture compared with the other genotypes. Conclusion: The severe RS phenotypes associated with Trp112Cys and to Trp122Cys mutations suggest that these mutations determine a notable alteration in the function of the retinoschisin protein.

Abstract: Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is a unique form of the glycolytic enzyme enolase found exclusively in neurons and neuroendocrine tissues. Immunohistochemical techniques in which antineuron-specific enolase antibodies are used have made it possible to map out derivatives of the neural crest in humans. By using affinity-purified antibodies against NSE, we investigated whether the contribution of the neural crest cells to the development of the anterior ocular structures in the rat is similar to that in man. We found that filtration structures in rats show morphologically striking similarities with the analogous region of the human eye. Hence, the rat eye, with certain reservations, is a suitable model for experimental studies on ocular diseases that are characterized by chamber angle anomalies or congenital glaucoma.

Abstract: In the last decade, the emergence of effective systemic therapies (ESTs) in the form of both targeted and immuno-based therapies has revolutionized the treatment of patients with advanced stage III and stage IV melanoma. Even though lungs represent the most frequent site of melanoma metastases, only limited data are available on the role of surgery in isolated pulmonary metastases from malignant melanoma (PmMM) in the era of ESTs. The aim of this study is to describe the outcomes of patients who underwent metastasectomy of PmMM in the era of ESTs, in order to identify prognostic factors affecting survival and to provide a framework for more informed patient selection of treatmeant with lung surgery in the future. Clinical data of 183 patients who underwent metastasectomy of PmMM between June 2008 and June 2021 were collected among four Italian Thoracic Centers. The main clinical, surgical and oncological variables reviewed were: sex, comorbidities, previous oncological history, melanoma histotypes and primary site, date of primary cancer surgical treatment, melanoma growth phase, Breslow thickness, mutation pattern disease, stage at diagnosis, metastatic sites, DFI (Disease Free Interval), characteristics of lung metastases (number, side, dimension, type of resection), adjuvant therapy after lung metastasectomy, site of recurrence, disease-free survival (DFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS; defined as the time interval between the first melanoma resection or lung metastasectomy and death from cancer). All patients underwent surgical resection of the primary melanoma before lung metastasectomy. Twenty-six (14.2%) patients already had a synchronous lung metastasis at the time of primary melanoma diagnosis. A wedge resection was performed in 95.6% of cases to radically remove the pulmonary localizations, while an anatomical resection was necessary in the remaining cases. The incidence of major post-operative complications was null, while only 21 patients (11.5%) developed minor complications (mainly air leakage followed by atrial fibrillation). The mean in-hospital stay was 4.46 ± 2.8 days. Thirty- and sixty-day mortality were null. After lung surgery, 89.6% of the population underwent adjuvant treatments (47.0% immunotherapy, 42.6% targeted therapy). During a mean FUP of 107.2 ± 82.3 months, 69 (37.7%) patients died from melanoma disease, 11 (6.0%) from other causes. Seventy-three patients (39.9%) developed a recurrence of disease. Twenty-four (13.1%) patients developed extrapulmonary metastases after pulmonary metastasectomy. The CSS from melanoma resection was: 85% at 5 years, 71% at 10 years, 54% at 15 years, 42% at 20 years and 2% at 25 years. The 5- and 10-year CSS from lung metastasectomy were 71% and 26%, respectively. Prognostic factors negatively affecting CSS from lung metastasectomy at multivariable analysis were: melanoma vertical growth ( p = 0.018), previous metastatic sites other than lung ( p < 0.001) and DFI < 24 months ( p = 0.007). Our results support the evidence that surgical indication confirms its important role in stage IV melanoma with resectable pulmonary metastases, and selected patients can still benefit from pulmonary metastasectomy in terms of overall cancer specific survival. Furthermore, the novel systemic therapies may contribute to prolonged survival after systemic recurrence following pulmonary metastasectomy. Patients with long DFI, radial growth melanoma phase and no site of metastatization other than lung seem to be the best candidate cases for lung metastasectomy; however, to drive stronger conclusions, further studies evaluating the role of metastasectomy in patients with iPmMM are needed.

Abstract: Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a multifactorial disease for which an involvement of alterations in the retinal ABC transporter gene (ABCA4) is still debated. Oxidative stress in retinal pigment epithelial cells has been postulated to contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. Mitochondrial ferritin (FtMt), an iron-sequestering protein, is expressed in cell types characterized by high metabolic activity and oxygen consumption, including human retina, suggesting a role in protecting mitochondria from iron-dependent oxidative damage. Based on these findings we wanted to investigate whether mutations in this gene could be found in AMD patients., Methods: Mutational scanning of the FTMTgene was performed in a cohort of 50 patients affected by age-related macular degeneration. The ABCA4 gene was also scanned in one patient carrying an FtMt mutation. In silico analyses were carried out on the identified variants. The recombinant form of FtMt variant was expressed in Escherichia coli and biochemically characterized., Results: One patient was found to be heterozygous for two previously unreported genetic changes: a complex FtMt mutation (c.437_450delinsCT: delAGGACATCAAGAAGinsCT) and a missense p.Leu973Phe (c.2919G>T) mutation in exon 20 of ABCA4. Computational analyses predicted a severe structural impairment for FtMt variant and a mild destabilizing effect for ABCA4. E. coli expression of recombinant FtMt variant yielded a highly insoluble protein that could not be renatured under in vitro conditions suitable for wild-type ferritins., Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the FtMt mutation may determine a condition similar to haploinsufficiency resulting in a reduced protection from iron-dependent oxidative stress in mitochondria.

Abstract: Objective: Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is an important regulator of cholesterol and lipid transport during compensatory synaptogenesis. Our purpose was to investigate the role of apoE gene polymorphisms in Italian patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD)., Methods: We used the polymerase chain reaction technique to analyze apoE genotypes in 87 patients with AMD, in 47 age-matched controls and in 1,287 individuals from a general reference population., Results: The frequency of allele epsilon4 carriers was significantly higher (p = 0.002) in the general population than in AMD patients, while the frequency of allele epsilon2 was higher in the patients (p = 0.069) with an increased risk for AMD in the patients versus the population-based controls (odds ratio = 1.7; 95% confidence interval: 1.0-2.9). Allele epsilon4 was associated with a decreased risk for AMD in the patients versus the population-based controls (odds ratio = 0.3; 95% confidence interval: 0.1-0.8)., Clinical Relevance: These data suggest that apoE testing may represent a tool for the evaluation of the relative risk of AMD. Consequently, a preventive strategy can be initiated at an early stage of the disorder., Conclusion: The apoE gene polymorphism showed a significant association with the risk of AMD. The lower frequency of the epsilon4 allele in AMD patients suggests that the apoE gene could play a protective role in the pathogenesis of the disease. In contrast, the epsilon2 allele was found associated with a slightly increased risk of AMD, although we did not find a statistically significant effect., (Copyright 2001 S. Karger AG, Basel)

Abstract: Mutations in the retina-specific ABC transporter (ABCR) gene are responsible for autosomal recessive Stargardt disease (arSTGD). Mutation detection efficiency in ABCR in arSTGD patients ranges between 30% and 66% in previously published studies, because of high allelic heterogeneity and technical limitations of the employed methods. Conditions were developed to screen the ABCR gene by double-gradient denaturing-gradient gel electrophoresis. The efficacy of this method was evaluated by analysis of DNA samples with previously characterized ABCR mutations. This approach was applied to mutation detection in 44 Italian arSTGD patients corresponding to 36 independent genomes, in order to assess the nature and frequency of the ABCR mutations in this ethnic group. In 34 of 36 (94.4%) STGD patients, 37 sequence changes were identified, including 26 missense, six frameshift, three splicing, and two nonsense variations. Among these, 20 had not been previously described. Several polymorphisms were detected in affected individuals and in matched controls. Our findings extend the spectrum of mutations identified in STGD patients and suggest the existence of a subset of molecular defects specific to the Italian population. The identification of at least two disease-associated mutations in four healthy control individuals indicates a higher than expected carrier frequency of variant ABCR alleles in the general population. Genotype-phenotype analysis in our series showed a possible correlation between the nature and location of some mutations and specific ophthalmoscopic features of STGD disease.

Abstract: Pigmented paravenous retino-choroidal atrophy (P P R C A) is a rare retinal disease characterized by bilateral patches of pigment and areas of chorioretinal atrophy distributed along the veins. The authors present a 21-year-old male with pigmented paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy and unilateral macular dysplasia. To their knowledge, this is the second reported case of macular involvement. They believe that such association is not occasional, but may be suggestive of a variable expressivity of the disease.

Abstract: Ocular pharmacokinetics of rufloxacin (MF 934), a new monofluorinated quinolone derivative, has been investigated in rabbits. A long half-life, good g.i. absorption and a higher tissue/plasma concentration than that of other quinolones, are its interesting pharmacokinetic properties. However, there is reason to believe that drug accumulation may occur in deep body compartments. We determined plasma, aqueous, and vitreous concentrations of the drug at 1, 4, 8, and 24h after a single 50 mg/kg i.v. administration of rufloxacin. Our data show that rufloxacin, administered by the i.v. route, rapidly reaches chemotherapeutically useful levels in aqueous and vitreous fluids. Although still present in plasma 8 hours after administration, it proved to be undetectable in ocular fluids, signifying that the depletion of the deep compartments occurs well in advance of the next invasion. Due to its antibacterial effectiveness and pharmacokinetic properties rufloxacin may take a relevant place among the quinolone derivatives in the treatment of ocular infections.
