Abstract

After a huge decline in sperm concentration between 1938 and 1991 was reported, many researchers investigated the possibility of a worsening of human sperm quality. Despite massive efforts, published evidence is still controversial. Similarly, the role of lifestyle factors on semen parameters is debated. We conducted a monocentric Italian study to evaluate the total sperm number trend over the last 10 years (from 2010 to 2019). Additionally, we evaluated the association between lifestyle factors and total sperm number in order to identify possible damaging factors. We performed a retrospective study analyzing subjects aged 18-55 years who had their semen analyzed between 2010 and 2019. A total of 3329 subjects were included: 1655 subjects referred to our department (Department of Experimental Medicine, Sapienza University of Rome, Roma, Italy) for idiopathic infertility and 1674 subjects referred for preconceptional or andrological screening with no confirmed andrological diseases. Semen samples were examined according to World Health Organization (WHO) 2010 criteria by two seminologists with the same training and the same equipment. For statistical evaluations, only total sperm number (×106 per ejaculate) was taken into consideration. We detected no significant changes in mean total sperm number during the last decade, in either the entire population or the two subgroups (infertile group and control group). In a multivariate analysis total sperm number was significantly associated with the history of infertility, body mass index (BMI) and cigarette smoking. Our results suggest that infertile men are "vulnerable" subjects, particularly susceptible to several negative factors, many of which still remain unknown. Our study highlights the need for studies addressing men's lifestyle in order to find and reduce deleterious agents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPR) are two common diseases that lower patients' quality of life. OSA is defined by cyclic events of airflow obstruction that occur during sleep, while LPR is characterized by upper airway inflammatory signs and symptoms due to the return of gastroduodenal gaseous and liquid elements. pH-metry is the gold standard in LPR diagnosis, but considering its invasiveness among other negative traits, questionnaires that catalog symptoms and signs of the disease such as Reflux Symptoms Index (RSI) and Reflux Finding Score (RFS) are preferred. Moreover, LPR can be evaluated by testing the presence of pepsin in tears, and Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) has been introduced for the early diagnosis of larynx oncological disease. This paper aims to test whether LPR is more frequent in OSA patients than in control ones, performing a non-invasive protocol composed of RSI, RFS test (with light vs. NBI techniques), followed by pepsin detection in tears. 68 LPR patients were enrolled in the study (45 with OSA and 23 without OSA). A strong linear relationship between Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) and Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI) was found, and patients who presented pepsin in tears had higher values of AHI and ODI in comparison to patients without it. Pathological RFS and NBI showed higher values of AHI and ODI in comparison to the control group. Furthermore, pathological RSI showed higher values of AHI and ODI in comparison to the control group. In conclusion, this diagnostic combined non-invasive protocol may be a good method to perform an early diagnosis of LPR.

Abstract

Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)-related pneumonia is associated with venous and arterial thrombosis. Aim of the study was to find out a new score for predicting thrombosis in patients with SARS-CoV-2. Methods We included a cohort of 674 patients affected by SARS-CoV-2, not requiring intensive care units, and followed-up during the hospitalization until discharge. Routine analyses performed at in-hospital admission included also serum albumin and D-dimer while arterial and venous thromboses were the endpoints of the study. Results During the follow-up, 110 thrombotic events were registered; patients with thrombotic events were older and had lower albumin and higher D-dimer, compared with thrombotic event-free ones. On multivariable logistic regression with step-by-step procedure age, serum albumin, and D-dimer were independently associated with thrombotic events. The linear combination of age, D-dimer, and albumin allowed to build-up the ADA (age-D-dimer-albumin) score, whose area under the curve (AUC) was 0.752 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.708–0.795). ADA score was internally validated by bootstrap sampling procedure giving an AUC of 0.752 (95% CI: 0.708–0.794). Conclusion Combination of age, D-dimer, and albumin in the ADA score allows identifying SARS-CoV-2 patients at higher risk of thrombotic events.

Abstract

Background: The reasons behind low adherence to the Mediterranean diet (Med-diet) are still not entirely known. We aimed to evaluate the effect of biological (i.e., sex-related) and psycho-socio-cultural (i.e., gender-related) factors on Med-diet adherence. Methods: Baseline Med-diet adherence was measured using a self-administered questionnaire among adults with ischemic heart disease (IHD) from the EVA (Endocrine Vascular Disease Approach) study. A multivariable analysis was performed to estimate the effect of sex- and gender-related factors (i.e., identity, roles, relations, and institutionalized gender) on low adherence. Results: Among 366 participants (66 ± 11 years, 31% women), 81 (22%) adults with low adherence demonstrated higher rates of diabetes, no smoking habit, lower male BSRI (Bem Sex Role Inventory) (median (IQR) 4.8 (4.1 to 5.5) vs. 5.1 (4.5 to 5.6) and p = 0.048), and higher Perceived Stress Scale 10 items (PSS-10) (median (IQR) 19 (11 to 23) vs. 15 (11 to 20) and p = 0.07) scores than those with medium-high adherence. In the multivariable analysis, only active smoking (odds ratio, OR = 2.10, 95% confidence interval, CI 1.14 to 3.85 and p = 0.017), PPS-10 (OR = 1.04, 95% CI 1.00 to 1.08, and p = 0.038) and male BSRI scores (OR = 0.70, 95% CI 0.52 to 0.95, and p = 0.021) were independently associated with low adherence. Conclusions: Male personality traits and perceived stress (i.e., gender identity) were associated with low Med-diet adherence regardless of the sex, age, and comorbidities. Therefore, gender-sensitive interventions should be explored to improve adherence in IHD.

Abstract

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is significantly related to adverse clinical outcomes in patients at high risk of cardiovascular events. In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), data on LVH, that is, prevalence and determinants, are inconsistent mainly because of different definitions and heterogeneity of study populations. We determined echocardiographic-based LVH prevalence and clinical factors independently associated with its development in a prospective cohort of patients with non-valvular (NV) AF. From the "Atrial Fibrillation Registry for Ankle-brachial Index Prevalence Assessment: Collaborative Italian Study" (ARAPACIS) population, 1,184 patients with NVAF (mean age 72 ± 11 years; 56% men) with complete data to define LVH were selected. ARAPACIS is a multicenter, observational, prospective, longitudinal on-going study designed to estimate prevalence of peripheral artery disease in patients with NVAF. We found a high prevalence of LVH (52%) in patients with NVAF. Compared to those without LVH, patients with AF with LVH were older and had a higher prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, and previous myocardial infarction (MI). A higher prevalence of ankle-brachial index ≤0.90 was seen in patients with LVH (22 vs 17%, p = 0.0392). Patients with LVH were at significantly higher thromboembolic risk, with CHA2DS2-VASc ≥2 seen in 93% of LVH and in 73% of patients without LVH (p

Abstract

Background Construct validity of virtual laparoscopic simulators for basic laparoscopic skills has been proposed; however, it is not yet clear whether the simulators can identify the actual experience of surgeons in more complex procedures such as laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. This study tested the ability of the Lap Mentor simulator to recognize the experience in advanced laparoscopic procedures and to assess its role in the certification of bariatric surgeons. Methods Twenty surgeons were divided into two groups according to their experience in laparoscopic and bariatric surgery. The general group included 10 general surgeons performing between 75 and 100 nonbariatric laparoscopic procedures. The bariatric group included 10 bariatric surgeons performing between 50 and 100 laparoscopic bariatric procedures. Participants were tested on the simulator in one basic task (task 1: eye–hand coordination) and in two tasks of the gastric bypass module (task 2: creation of the gastric pouch; task 3: gastrojejunal anastomosis). Results Comparing the groups, no significant differences were found in task 1. Analyzing the results from the gastric bypass module (bariatric vs. general), in task 2, significant differences (p

Abstract

The pivotal role of neutrophils and macrophages in smoking-related lung inflammation and COPD development is well-established.We aimed to assess whether sputum concentrations of Human Neutrophil Peptides (HNP), Neutrophil Elastase (NE), Interleukin-8 (IL-8), and Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), major products of neutrophils and macrophages, could be used to trace airway inflammation and progression towards pulmonary functional impairment characteristic of COPD.Forty-two symptomatic smokers and 42 COPD patients underwent pulmonary function tests; sputum samples were collected at enrolment, and 6 months after smoking cessation.HNP, NE, IL-8, MMP-9 levels were increased in individuals with COPD (p< 0.0001). HNP and NE concentrations were higher in patients with severe airways obstruction, as compared to patients with mild-to-moderate COPD (p= 0.002). A negative correlation was observed between FEV1and HNP, NE and IL-8 levels (p< 0.01), between FVC1/FVC and HNP, NE and IL-8 levels (p< 0.01), and between NE enrolment levels and FEV1decline after 2 years (p= 0.04).ROC analysis, to discriminate symptomatic smokers and COPD patients, showed the following AUCs: for HNP 0.92; for NE 0.81; for IL-8 0.89; for MMP-9 0.81; for HNP, IL-8 and MMP-9 considered together 0.981.The data suggest that the measurement of sputum markers may have an important role in clinical practice for monitoring COPD.

Abstract

Octyl-2-cyanoacrylate (Dermabond, Ethicon Inc.) has been introduced in clinical practice as an ideal system of closure of wounds, but no studies have confirmed the advantages of wound closure performed with Dermabond compared to skin staples (Proximate, Ethicon Inc.) in thyroid surgery. The objective of this study is to evaluate the short- and long-term results of wound closure in thyroid surgery performed with Dermabond (DERM) versus Proximate (PROX). Seventy patients after thyroidectomy were randomly assigned into the two groups (DERM vs PROX). The postoperative and the long-term outcomes were clinically evaluated by physicians, and the Stony Brook scar evaluation scale has also been used. The patients' satisfaction with the early postoperative management and with the cosmetic outcomes has been assessed by a numerical scale ranging from 0 to 10. Results were compared using appropriate statistical tests. Thirty-two patients used DERM, while 38 patients used PROX. Immediate results showed difficult application in two cases DERM (6.2%) and hyperemia in one case DERM (3.1%). Early results showed edema in eight cases DERM (25%) vs two cases PROX (5.2%; p < 0.05); patients' satisfaction: optimum judgement in 100% DERM vs 15.7% PROX (p < 0.001); patients' self aesthetic evaluation: PROX higher percentage of excellent results vs DERM (p < 0.005). After one month, results showed edema in nine cases DERM (28.8%) vs two cases PROX (5.2%; p < 0.01), while after 6 months, DERM had lesser symptoms than PROX (p < 0.01). Octyl-2-cyanoacrylate has proven to be effective and reliable in the skin closure of cervical incision similar to suture with staples and yields similar final cosmetic outcomes. Because Dermabond offers the advantage of better management in the early postoperative phase, the patients’ satisfaction is clearly better.

Abstract

Background Mammographic breast density is a useful marker for breast cancer risk, as breast density is considered one of the strongest breast cancer risk factors. The study objective was to evaluate and compare mammographic breast density in infertile and parous women, as infertility may be associated with high breast density and cancer occurrence. Methods This study evaluated mammographic breast density using two different systems, BIRADS and Boyd. A selected patient population of 151 women with primary infertility (case group) was compared to 154 parous women who had at least one previous pregnancy (control group). Both groups were premenopausal women aged ≥35. Results Evaluation of mammographic features showed that 66.9 % of case group patients and 53.9 % of control group patients were classified BIRADS-3/BIRADS-4; p

Abstract

The gallstone ileus is a rare complication of cholelithiasis and it represents the 1-4% of small intestinal mechanical obstruction. Gallstone is generally wedged in the terminal ileum, even if unusual locations have been described. The literature reports a very high morbidity and mortality, often because misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis. There is no unique opinion in literature about the choice between one-stage and two-stage surgery. We report a clinical case that summarizes the diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties of gallstone ileus.

Abstract

the aim of this study was to analyse the awareness of oral cancer among young adults in the city of Rome.during the orientation period for new graduates students, or "Porte aperte", organised by the Sapienza University of Rome in July 2009 and 2010, a survey among young people regarding their knowledge on the risk factors, the importance of early diagnosis, and the methods for primary and secondary prevention of oral cancer was conducted. A total of 1125 questionnaires were administered to subjects who agreed to respond to assess the level of knowledge of the disease.only 45.3% of the sample population was aware of the existence of oral cancer; among these individuals, 36.9% did not perceive seriousness of the malignancy. High school students who attended a scientific high school knew the risk factors better than the students who attended classical and technical high school.rigorous educational programs along with diagnostic strategies promise to reduce the burden of oral cancer. The data obtained from this study highlight the need to increase health education, especially among young people in humanistic or technical high schools and universities (Classical High School, Technical Institutes, Faculty of Letters, Faculty of Law) where there is a lack of knowledge concerning oral cancer prevention.

Abstract

This pilot study evaluated patients' experience of oral surgical and prosthetic procedures as well as their opinions regarding function, aesthetics, comfort, and satisfaction with treatment outcomes.Forty-nine subjects treated with oral implants completed questionnaires comprising 44 questions. Three questionnaires were used related to implant-supported single-tooth, fixed implant-supported prostheses and implant-retained overdentures. The questions related to demographic data (age, sex, employment, marital status and educational level), the source of information, the reason they underwent implant treatment, the discomfort related to all phases of treatment, and their functional and aesthetic satisfaction.Most of the patients (53.8%) were employed and had received a high school certificate or a university diploma. Patients heard about implants from various sources, including referring dentists (55.8%), relatives and friends (23.1%), and television, radio and the Internet (17.3%). The main reasons for choosing implant treatment were restoring lost teeth (35,5%), following dentist's advice (33,3%), improving stability of the removable denture (15.4%), eating habits (13.5%) and aesthetics (1.9%). Most patients considered that the procedure took a long time (44.2%) but was not traumatic (62.5%). Pain was almost absent in most cases (64.5%) and swelling, when present, was generally moderate (48.1%) and seldom was marked (17.3%). Patients were very satisfied about the aesthetics (82.7%) and function (94.2%), and considered the implant prosthesis to be part of themselves (84.6%). Most of the patients considered the implant prostheses to be easy to clean (73.1%), and would repeat the treatment if necessary (86.5%) and recommend it to other people (94.2%).Although the present study is limited by the small sample, the outcomes suggest that oral implant rehabilitation meets patients' needs and aesthetic demands.
