Abstract

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare and deadly childhood malignancy. After 40 years of mostly single-center, often non-randomized trials with variable patient inclusions, there has been no improvement in survival. It is therefore time for international collaboration in DIPG research, to provide new hope for children, parents and medical professionals fighting DIPG. In a first step towards collaboration, in 2011, a network of biologists and clinicians working in the field of DIPG was established within the European Society for Paediatric Oncology (SIOPE) Brain Tumour Group: the SIOPE DIPG Network. By bringing together biomedical professionals and parents as patient representatives, several collaborative DIPG-related projects have been realized. With help from experts in the fields of information technology, and legal advisors, an international, web-based comprehensive database was developed, The SIOPE DIPG Registry and Imaging Repository, to centrally collect data of DIPG patients. As for April 2016, clinical data as well as MR-scans of 694 patients have been entered into the SIOPE DIPG Registry/Imaging Repository. The median progression free survival is 6.0 months (95% Confidence Interval (CI) 5.6–6.4 months) and the median overall survival is 11.0 months (95% CI 10.5–11.5 months). At two and five years post-diagnosis, 10 and 2% of patients are alive, respectively. The establishment of the SIOPE DIPG Network and SIOPE DIPG Registry means a paradigm shift towards collaborative research into DIPG. This is seen as an essential first step towards understanding the disease, improving care and (ultimately) cure for children with DIPG. © 2017, The Author(s).

Abstract

The aim of this study was to check non-invasively the acute haemodynamic effects of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) initiation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and acute ventilatory failure (AVF). Nineteen consecutive COPD patients with AVF were evaluated clinically and echocardiographically during spontaneous breathing with O2 supplementation and during NPPV plus O2. NPPV was administered with a scheduled inspiratory pressure of 15 cmH2O and an expiratory pressure of 4 cmH2O, via facial mask. Arterial blood gas improved significantly (pH and PaCO2; P15%) of CO during NPPV. No correlation was found between decreased CO and baseline data, but three patients showing CO reduction had poor tolerance to mask ventilation and did not improve respiratory rate during NPPV. It was concluded that the initiation of NPPV by facial mask does not alter haemodynamics acutely in most COPD patients with AVF, but individual patients may experience reduction in CO in spite of adequate oxygen saturation levels. This suggests that caution should be used when applying pre-determined and fixed pressures during NPPV. Monitoring haemodynamics by Doppler echocardiography may be useful for early detection of haemodynamic alterations due to NPPV application in patients with AVF.

Abstract

Reports of a few apparently autochthonous cases of human histoplasmosis and results of epidemiological research suggested the autochthonous presence of the disease in Italy. Identifying two new histologically documented cases of Italian patients, who had never been abroad, and, the positive results of a histoplasmin reactivity survey carried out in the Province of Cremona, Italy confirmed this possibility.

Abstract

Purpose. Cognitive and behavioural therapy (CBT) is often used to treat behavioural and emotional disorders in children, and its efficacy has been described in several studies. As behavioural and emotional disorders are frequent sequelae in brain tumor survivors, the goal of this work is to describe the efficacy of a CBT intervention in the treatment of young brain tumor survivors. Methods. Forty young patients, aged 4-18 years, were included in the study. The treatment group, composed of 17 patients, received sessions of CBT. The Child Behaviour Checklist 4-18 (CBCL/4-18) and the Vineland Adaptive Behavioural Scales (VABS) were administered to parents at the beginning and at the end of the hospitalisation. The statistical significance of changes for clinical subjects during the CBT administration was estimated. Results. With regard to the CBCL/4-18, the clinical group showed a significant advantage on the withdrawn, somatic complaints, social problems, attention problems, internalising and total problem scales. On the VABS, the treatment group improved to a significantly greater extent in the social skills domain. Conclusions. These results substantiate our assumption that CBT is an effective intervention for young patients surviving brain tumors and may be particularly helpful to younger individuals in managing cancer-related limitations.
