Abstract

Abstract Anemia is a common but often underdiagnosed and undertreated geriatric syndrome in hospitalized older patients. In this retrospective multicenter study, we aimed at characterizing the prevalence, risk factors, diagnostic and treatment approach to anemia in older patients admitted to acute care hospitals, focusing on differences between nephrology and geriatrics units. Prevalence and risk factors for anemia, diagnostic inertia (lack of iron, vitamin B12, and folate status assessment), replacement inertia (omitted treatment with iron, vitamin B12 or folic acid), and erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA) inertia were explored. 1963 patients aged 82.7 (6.8) years were included in the study; 66.7% of the study population had anemia; among anemic patients, diagnostic inertia and replacement inertia were common with rates of 22–31% and 50–87%, respectively; omitted treatment with ESA affected 67.2% of patients and was more prevalent in geriatric units. In most cases, patients with ESA inertia were not routinely screened for iron tests. COPD, cancer, eGFR 45–60 ml/min were associated with increased tendency to ESA inertia. In conclusion, anemia had a high prevalence in older patients discharged from acute care units, but it is often underdiagnosed and undertreated.

Abstract

Objective: Many cases of subacute thyroiditis (SAT) have been described related to SARS-CoV-2 infection, but no prospective data about follow-up are known. This prospective, longitudinal, 3-year, multicentre study aims to explore the clinical peculiarities and outcome of SAT in relation to SARS-CoV-2 infection, ascertained with antibody dosage. Methods: All patients receiving SAT diagnosis from November 2020 to May 2022 were enrolled. Data on anamnesis, physical examination, blood tests (TSH, freeT4, freeT3, thyroglobulin, anti-thyroid antibodies, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, complete blood count), and thyroid ultrasound were collected. At baseline, the presence of IgG against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein or nucleocapsid was investigated. Patients were evaluated after 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. Results: Sixty-six subjects were enrolled. At baseline, 54 presented with pain, 36 (67%) for at least 15 days. Serum SARS-CoV-2 IgG measurements documented that 7 out of 52 subjects (13.5%) had infection before SAT diagnosis (COVID+). No significant differences between the COVID+ and COVID− groups were found at baseline, except for respiratory symptoms and fever, which were more common in COVID+ (P = 0.039 and P = 0.021, respectively). Among the 41 subjects who completed follow-up, COVID+ and COVID− did not differ for therapeutic approach to SAT or outcome, all having an improvement in neck pain, inflammation parameters, and ultrasound features. Conclusion: This is the first prospective study investigating any difference both at diagnosis and at follow-up between SAT presentation in patients with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection and those without. Our data demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2 does not impact on SAT onset, evolution, and outcome.

Abstract

Abstract Background Chronic cough has been associated with reduced health-related quality of life, negative impacts on sleep, work, and other daily activities, and increased use of health care resources. Little is known about the prevalence of chronic cough in Italy. In the present study we sought to estimate the prevalence of chronic cough in Italy, describe sociodemographic and clinical characteristics associated with chronic cough, and characterize the impact of chronic cough on overall health and wellness, work and other daily activities, and health care resource use. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study to collect sociodemographic and health-related data from Italian residents who participated in the 2020 National Health and Wellness Survey (N = 10,026). To assess the characteristics and burden of chronic cough, adults who indicated that they had experienced chronic cough during the prior 12 months were compared with propensity score-matched controls without chronic cough. Results The estimated weighted lifetime and 12-month prevalence of chronic cough were estimated as 9.2% and 6.3%, respectively. Compared with matched controls, respondents with chronic cough had significantly lower measures of overall physical and mental health (P

Abstract

ABSTRACT The present study aimed to investigate the pharyngeal and nasal microbiota composition in children with adenotonsillar hypertrophy (AH) and assess longitudinal alterations in both microbiota after a probiotic oral spray treatment. A cohort of 57 AH patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to the probiotic and placebo groups for a 5-month treatment course. Pharyngeal and nasal swabs were collected before and after treatment and analyzed by 16S rRNA-based metataxonomics and axenic cultures for pathobiont identification. 16S rRNA sequences from pharyngeal and nasal swabs of 65 healthy children (HC) were used as microbiota reference profiles. We found that the pharyngeal and nasal microbiota of AH children were similar. When compared to HC, we observed an increase of the genera Rothia, Granulicatella, Streptococcus, Neisseria, and Haemophilus, as well as a reduction of Corynebacterium, Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, and Moraxella in both microbiota of AH patients. After probiotic treatment, we confirmed the absence of adverse effects and a reduction of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI). Moreover, the composition of pharyngeal microbiota was positively influenced by the reduction of potential pathobionts, like Haemophilus spp., with an increase of beneficial microbial metabolic pathways. Finally, the probiotic reduced the abundance of the pathobionts Streptococcus mitis and Gemella haemolysans in relation to AH severity. In conclusion, our results highlight the alterations of the pharyngeal and nasal microbiota associated with AH. Moreover, probiotic administration conferred protection against URTI and reduced the presence of potential pathobionts in patients with AH.IMPORTANCEAdenotonsillar hypertrophy (AH) is considered the main cause of breathing disorders during sleep in children. AH patients, after significant morbidity and often multiple courses of antibiotics, often proceed to tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy. Given the potential risks associated with these procedures, there is a growing interest in the use of nonsurgical adjuvant therapies, such as probiotics, that could potentially reduce their need for surgical intervention. In this study, we investigated the pharyngeal and nasal microbiota in patients with AH compared with healthy children. Furthermore, we tested the effects of probiotic spray administration on both disease symptoms and microbiota profiles, to evaluate the possible use of this microbial therapy as an adjuvant for AH patients.

Abstract

Abstract Background Since the beginning of the anti-COVID-19 vaccination campaign, it has become evident that vaccinated subjects exhibit considerable inter-individual variability in the response to the vaccine that could be partly explained by host genetic factors. A recent study reported that the immune response elicited by the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine in individuals from the United Kingdom was influenced by a specific allele of the human leukocyte antigen gene HLA-DQB1. Methods We carried out a genome-wide association study to investigate the genetic determinants of the antibody response to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine in an Italian cohort of 1351 subjects recruited in three centers. Linear regressions between normalized antibody levels and genotypes of more than 7 million variants was performed, using sex, age, centers, days between vaccination boost and serological test, and five principal components as covariates. We also analyzed the association between normalized antibody levels and 204 HLA alleles, with the same covariates as above. Results Our study confirms the involvement of the HLA locus and shows significant associations with variants in HLA-A, HLA-DQA1, and HLA-DQB1 genes. In particular, the HLA-A*03:01 allele is the most significantly associated with serum levels of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. Other alleles, from both major histocompatibility complex class I and II are significantly associated with antibody levels. Conclusions These results support the hypothesis that HLA genes modulate the response to Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and highlight the need for genetic studies in diverse populations and for functional studies aimed to elucidate the relationship between HLA-A*03:01 and CD8+ cell response upon Pfizer-BioNTech vaccination.

Abstract

Electric micromobility, both as a private option and as a shared service, can represent an alternative to cars, particularly for given user groups (market segments) and specific classes of travel distance. The paper explores the potential for shifting from cars to electric micromobility (specifically, e-bikes and e-scooters) for commuting trips, investigated through floating car data (FCD). The methodology combines the calibration of random utility models (RUMs) and the subsequent simulation through the adoption of FCD spanning the entire city of Rome (Italy). The data used for the calibration of RUM models have been sourced from an online revealed preferences and stated preferences survey carried out between November 2020 and January 2021. Socioeconomic factors, along with transport features (travel time, access time, monetary costs, and perceived safety levels), enter into the definition of the mode choice probability. The first results showed that in Rome, the potential demand for electric micromobility could range between 14% of the FCD sample in the best case (low cost, high accessibility, and road infrastructures with a high perceived level of safety) and about 2% in the worst case (high cost, low accessibility, and a low perceived level of safety).

Abstract

Abstract Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematological malignancy after non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Recently, the use of 18F-FDG PET/CT has become more and more diffused thanks to its ability to combine functional and morphological information for diagnosis, prognosis assessment, and evaluation of treatment response. This study aims to describe the semiquantitative parameters obtained from 18F-FDG PET/CT in a population of patients with MM. A comparative analysis was performed with existing literature. Methods This retrospective study included 50 patients with suspected MM who had undergone whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT. The semiquantitative parameters obtained from 18F-FDG PET/CT positive scans were analyzed, specifically the number of focal lesions (FLs), the SUVmax of the “hottest” lesion, the ratio between SUVmax of the bone marrow and the spleen (marrow-to-spleen SUVmean ratio), marrow-to-spleen SULpeak ratio, and MTV. Results Of the total cohort of 50 patients submitted to 18F-FDG PET/CT for suspected MM, 39 subjects resulted affected by MM. The 11 negative 18F-FDG PET/CT scans of the remaining subjects were not included. 59% of patients were males, and mean age (SD) was 65 ± 7.8 years. Based on the number of FLs, the entire cohort was divided into three groups: 14 patients in group A with more than 10 lesions; 5 patients in group B had a number of lesions between 5 and 10; and 24 patients in group C presented with less than 5 lesions. Conclusions Semiquantitative parameters obtained through 18F-FDG PET can be useful in the assessment of staging criteria for MM, as the metabolic activity of lesions is higher in patients with extensive disease at the time of diagnosis. The predictive and prognostic relevance of these parameters as well as their role in guiding the therapeutic process toward ASCT worths further research.

Abstract

Background. As artificial intelligence is expanding its applications in medicine, metabolic imaging is gaining the ability to retrieve data otherwise missed by even an experienced naked eye. Also, new radiopharmaceuticals and peptides aim to increase the specificity of positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Herein, a preliminary experience is reported regarding searching for a texture signature in routinely performed [F18]Fluciclovine imaging in prostate cancer. Materials and methods. Twenty-nine patients who underwent a PET/computed tomography (CT) scan with [18F]Fluciclovine because of biochemical prostate cancer relapse were retrospectively enrolled. First- and second-order radiomic features were manually extracted in lesions visually considered pathologic from the Local Image Features Extraction (LIFEx) platform. Statistical analysis was performed on a database of 29 lesions, one1 per patient. The dataset was split to have 20 lesions for the model training set and 9 lesions for the validation set. The Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test was used on the training set to select the most significant features (p-value < 0.05) predicting the dichotomous outcome in a univariate analysis. Results. The best model for predicting the outcome was found to be a multiple logistic linear regression model with two features as variables: an intensity histogram type and a gray-level size zone-based type. Conclusions. Texture analysis of [F18]Fluciclovine PET scans helps in defining prostate cancer relapse in a daily clinical setting.

Abstract

Acoustic radiation forced impulse (ARFI) is an integrated ultrasound method, measuring stiffness by point shear wave elastography. To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the ARFI of the liver and the spleen, combined with spleen dimension and platelet count, in predicting high-risk esophageal varices (HRVs) in cirrhotic patients, a prospective and cross-sectional study was conducted between February 2017 and February 2021. The following ratio scores were calculated based on ARFI measurements: ALSDP (ARFI Liver–Spleen Diameter-to-Platelet Ratio Score), ASSDP (ARFI Spleen–Spleen Diameter-to-Platelet Ratio Score), ASSAP (ARFI Spleen–Spleen Area-to-Platelet Ratio Score), and ALSAP (ARFI Liver–Spleen Area-to-Platelet Ratio Score). In 100 enrolled subjects, spleen ARFI, ASSDP, and ASSAP were significantly associated with HRVs in the prospective short- and long-term follow-ups and in the cross-sectional study (p < 0.05), while ALSDP and ALSAP were associated with HRVs only in the prospective long-term follow-up and cross-sectional study (p< 0.05). ASSAP was the best ARFI ratio score for HRVs at the long-term follow-up [value of area under curve (AUC) = 0.88], although all the ARFI ratio scores performed better than individual liver and spleen ARFI (AUC > 0.7). In our study, ARFI ratio scores can predict, in well-compensated cirrhotic patients, the risk of developing HVRs in short- and long-term periods.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Growth hormone (GH) is nonphysiologically increased in acromegaly, stimulating target tissues directly and indirectly via insulin‐like growth factor type 1 (IGF‐1). Despite GH having anabolic effects on bone growth and renewal, the risk of vertebral fractures is paradoxically increased in acromegaly. We hypothesized that bone tissue compartments were differentially affected by hormonal alterations in active and controlled acromegaly. We aimed to study the effect of sex and gonadal status on long‐term outcome of bone mass and structure to understand the biomechanical competence of bone. We followed 62 patients with newly diagnosed acromegaly longitudinally (median 4.8 years after pituitary surgery) to investigate changes assessed by dual X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA), trabecular bone score (TBS), and hip structure analysis (HSA). At diagnosis, patients had increased bone mineral density (BMD) in most compartments compared with normative data (Z‐scores). Conversely, TBS Z‐score was decreased (Z = −0.64 (SD 1.73), p = 0.028). Following treatment of acromegaly, BMD increased further in compartments containing predominantly trabecular bone, such as the lumbar spine, in eugonadal and male subjects, while compartments with predominantly cortical bone, such as the hip and femoral neck, were unchanged. Total body measurements showed further increase in BMD independent of sex and gonadal status. TBS did not change. HSA revealed a significant decrease in cortical thickness in both sexes independent of gonadal status, whereas the overall size of bone (hip axis length and neck width) did not change over time. In conclusion, patients with acromegaly had increased bone mass and dimensions by DXA. Following normalization of disease activity, BMD increased mainly in compartments rich in trabecular bone, reflecting a closure of the remodeling space. However, HSA revealed a significant decrease in cortical thickness, implying endocortical trabecularization, potentially explaining the increased risk for incident vertebral fractures following treatment. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract

ObjectiveThe serum calcium (Ca)–to–phosphorus (P) ratio has been proposed to identify patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and chronic hypoparathyroidism (HPT), but it has never been tested in pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP). The aim of this study was to test the performance of Ca/P ratio in PHP diagnosis compared with that in healthy subjects and patients with HPT for differential diagnosis.DesignA retrospective, cross-sectional, and observational study was carried out.MethodsSerum Ca, P, creatinine, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and albumin were collected. Ca and P were expressed in mmol/L. Ca/P diagnostic performance was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy.ResultsA total of 60 patients with PHP, 60 patients with HPT, and 120 controls were enrolled. The Ca/P ratio was lower in patients with PHP and HPT than that in controls (p < 0.0001). The cutoff of 1.78 (2.32 if Ca and P measured in mg/dL) for Ca/P ratio could identify patients with PHP and HPT among the entire cohort (sensitivity and specificity of 76%). No valid cutoff of Ca/P was found to distinguish patients with PHP from patients with HPT; in this case, PTH above 53.0 ng/dL identified patients with PHP (sensitivity and specificity of 100%). The index (Ca/P × PTH) above 116 ng/L recognized patients with PHP from controls (sensitivity of 84.7% and specificity of 87.4%), whereas (Ca/P × PTH) below 34 ng/L recognized patients with HPT from controls (sensitivity of 88.9% and specificity of 90.8%).ConclusionsThe Ca/P ratio below 1.78 (2.32 CU) is highly accurate to identify patients with PHP and HPT, although it is not reliable to differentiate these two conditions. The index (Ca/P × PTH) is excellent to specifically recognize PHP or HPT from healthy subjects.

Abstract

SPECT systems using pinhole apertures permit radiolabeled molecular distributions to be imaged in vivo in small animals. Nevertheless studying cardiovascular diseases by means of small animal models is very challenging. Specifically, submillimeter spatial resolution, good energy resolution and high sensitivity are required. We designed what we consider the "optimal" radionuclide detector system for this task. It should allow studying both detection of unstable atherosclerotic plaques and monitoring the effect of therapies. Using mice is particularly challenging in situations that require several intravenous injections of radiotracers, possibly for week or even months, in chronically ill animals. Thus, alternative routes of delivering the radiotracer in tail vein should be investigated. In this study we have performed preliminary measurements of detection of atherosclerotic plaques in genetically modified mice with high-resolution prototype detector. We have also evaluated the feasibility of assessing left ventricular perfusion by intraperitoneal delivering of MIBI-Tc in healthy mice., Comment: 6 pages, 8 figures

Abstract

Hypogonadism is a frequent finding among men living with HIV (MLWH) and it seems to occur earlier in comparison with the general male population. Although the prevalence of hypogonadism in MLWH has significantly lowered thanks to advancements in medical management, it remains high if compared with age-matched HIV-uninfected men, ranging from 13% to 40% in the age group of 20-60 years. Signs and symptoms of low serum testosterone (T) in MLWH are cause of concern since they are non-specific, of mild-to-moderate degree, and often overlapping with those of infection per se. For these reasons, hypogonadism can be underestimated in the absence of targeted laboratory blood examinations. With regard to the etiological factors involved in the T decrease, emerging evidence has suggested the functional nature of hypogonadism in MLWH, pointing out the mutual relationship between sex steroids, health status, comorbidities, and HIV-related factors. In agreement with this hypothesis, a therapeutic approach aiming at improving or reversing concomitant diseases through lifestyle changes (e.g. physical activity) rather than pharmacological T treatment should be theoretically considered. However, considering both patient’s barriers to lifestyle changes to be maintained overtime and the lack of evidence-based data on the efficacy of lifestyle changes in normalizing serum T in MLWH, T therapy remains an option when other non-pharmacological interventions are ineffective as well as for all other functional forms of hypogonadism. From this perspective, the traditional therapeutic management of male hypogonadism in MLWH, especially the role of T supplementation, should be revised in the light of the probable functional nature of hypogonadism by considering a good balance between benefits and harmful. This narrative review presents an overview of current knowledge on hypogonadism in MLWH, deepening the factors driving and taking part in T decrease, providing advice for the clinical approach, and underlining the importance of individualized treatment aiming at optimizing non-gonadal comorbidities and thus avoiding over-, or even unnecessary, treatment with T.

Abstract

Despite significant advances in glioma diagnosis and treatment, overall outcomes remain suboptimal. Exploring novel therapeutic avenues show promise in advancing the field. Theranostics, an evolving discipline integrating diagnosis and therapy, emerges as a particularly auspicious approach. However, an unmet need exists for glioma-associated biomarkers as theranostic targets. Immuno-positron emission tomography (Immuno-PET), a pioneering method uniting PET diagnostic precision with antibody specificity, holds potential for identifying cancer-associated biomarkers. This review aims to provide an updated overview of immuno-PET applications in gliomas. Notably, [44Sc]-CHX-A″-DTPA-Cetuximab-Fab targeting Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) has displayed promise in glioma xenografts, enabling potential imaging at 4 h post-injection. Similarly, [89Zr]-bevacizumab targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) yielded encouraging results in preclinical models and a pioneering clinical trial for pediatric patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). Several cell differentiation markers, including CD146, indicative of tumor aggressiveness, and CD11b, reflecting tumor-associated myeloid cells (TAMCs), proved effective targets for immuno-PET. Additionally, immuno-PET directed at prostate-specific antigen (PSMA) demonstrated efficacy in imaging glioma-associated neovasculature. While holding promise for precise diagnosis and treatment guidance, challenges persist in achieving target specificity and selecting suitable radionuclides. Further studies are imperative to advance the field and bridge a translational gap from bench to bedside.

Abstract

Background: In addition to the typical form resembling the classical Japanese octopus trap, atypical variants of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) sparing the left ventricular apex have emerged over the years. The aim of this systematic review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the cardiac nuclear imaging findings in atypical variants. Methods: This systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The literature research was carried out online on the Pubmed, Scopus, Central (Cochrane Library), and Web Of Science databases. Results: A total of 14 articles were ultimately selected. Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy was performed in nine studies, followed by 123I-mIBG scintigraphy, 123I-BMIPP scintigraphy, and 18F-FDG PET. In seven cases, a single cardiac nuclear imaging technique was performed, while in the remaining five and two cases, two and three different imaging modalities were, respectively, used. The most common atypical variant of our selection was the midventricular form, followed by reverse/inverted/basal TTC, with only a single case reported of a focal pattern. Conclusions: As the reason why TTC variants occur is still not clear, a deeper understanding of the current knowledge could be the basis for providing more insights into this fascinating disorder and its uncommon manifestations.

Abstract

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an emerging cause of liver‐related events (LREs). Here, we have assessed the ability of a composite score based on clinical features, metabolic comorbidities, and genetic variants to predict LREs. A total of 546 consecutive patients with NAFLD were recruited and stratified according to the fibrosis‐4 (FIB‐4) index. LREs were defined as occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma or hepatic decompensation. Cox regression multivariate analysis was used to identify baseline variables associated with LREs. The UK Biobank was used as the validation cohort, and severe liver disease (incidence of cirrhosis, decompensated liver disease, hepatocellular carcinoma, and/or liver transplantation) was used as the outcome. LREs were experienced by 58 patients, only one of whom was in the cohort of patients with a FIB‐4 score

Abstract

Debye–Scherrer patterns, obtained from X-ray diffraction experiments using synchrotron light in transmission geometry, were analysed to construct generalized pole figures, and further used as input for an orientation distribution function inversion algorithm. By using Langford's method for separating strain and size contributions to peak broadening, it was possible, for the first time, to obtain full domain size and dislocation density generalized distribution functions (GDFs). This method was applied to cold-rolled and annealed interstitial-free steel. The predictions made using GDFs were corroborated by electron backscatter diffraction measurements and were also consistent with what was previously known for this kind of material under these conditions.
