| 1 | Sonographic markers for early diagnosis of fetal malformations显示文摘Fetal malformations are very frequent in industrialized countries.Although advanced maternal age may affect pregnancy outcome adversely,80%-90%of fetal malformations occur in the absence of a specific risk factor for parents.The only effective approach for prenatal screening is currently represented by an ultrasound scan.However,ultrasound methods present two important limitations:the substantial absence of quantitative parameters and the dependence on the sonographer experience.In recent years,together with the improvement in transducer technology,quantitative and objective sonographic markers highly predictive of fetal malformations have been developed.These markers can be detected at early gestation(11-14 wk)and generally are not pathological in themselves but have an increased incidence in abnormal fetuses.Thus,prenatal ultrasonography during the second trimester of gestation provides a'genetic sonogram',including,for instance,nuchal translucency,short humeral length,echogenic bowel,echogenic intracardiac focus and choroid plexus cyst,that is used to identify morphological features of fetal Down’s syndrome with a potential sensitivity of more than 90%.Other specific and sensitive markers can be seen in the case of cardiac defects and skeletal anomalies.In the future,sonographic markers could limit even more the use of invasive and dangerous techniques of prenatal diagnosis(amniocentesis,etc.). | Maria Daniela Renna Paola Pisani Francesco Conversano Emanuele Perrone Ernesto Casciaro Gian Carlo Di Renzo Marco Di Paola Antonio Perrone Sergio Casciaro | 2013 | World Journal of Radiology2013,5,10: | 12 |
| 2 | Understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms in the pediatric non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: The role of genetics显示文摘Classically, the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) physiopathology and progression has been summarized in the two hits hypothesis. The first hit is represented by the action of hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance, accompanying obesity, that leads to liver steatosis increasing the absolute non esterified fatty acids uptake in the liver and the esterification to form triacylglycerol. The oxidative stress is involved in the second hit leading to the progression to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH) because of its harmful action on steatosic hepatocytes. However, at the present time, the two hits hypothesis needs to be updated because of the discover of genetic polymorphisms involved both in the liver fat accumulation and progression to NASH that make more intriguing understanding the NAFLD pathophysiological mechanisms. In this editorial, we want to underline the role of PNPLA3 I148 M, GPR120 R270 H and TM6SF2 E167 K in the pediatric NAFLD development because they add new pieces to the comprehension of the NAFLD pathophysiological puzzle. The PNPLA3 I148 M polymorphism encodes for an abnormal protein which predisposes to intrahepatic triglycerides accumulation both for a loss-of-function of its triglyceride hydrolase activity and for a gain-of-function of its lipogenic activity.Therefore, it is involved in the first hit, such as TM6SF2 E167 K polymorphisms that lead to intrahepatic fat accumulation through a reduced very low density lipoprotein secretion. On the other hand, the GPR120 R270 H variant, reducing the anti-inflammatory action of the GPR120 receptor expressed by Kuppfer cells, is involved in the second hit leading to the liver injury. | Pierluigi Marzuillo Anna Grandone Laura Perrone Emanuele Miraglia del Giudice | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015,7,11: | 9 |

| 7 | Surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse and follow-up: An institutional multi-center experience显示文摘AIM: To investigate the effects of the Elevate Anterior and Posterior transvaginal mesh procedure on 30 patients affected by pelvic organ prolapse(POP) at 12 mo follow-up.METHODS: Between September 2011 and September 2012, a prospective multicenter observational study enrolled 30 consecutive patients with POP-Q ≥ stage Ⅱ. After a preoperative evaluation, patients underwent prolapse repair utilizing the Elevate Anterior and Posterior Prolapse Repair System(American Medical Systems, Minnetonka, MN, United States). Operative technique was standardized and performed by the same surgical team under spinal or general anesthesia. Patients were evaluated postoperatively at 1, 3, 6 and 12 mo.RESULTS: All 30 patients completed the 12 mo followup. The mean age was 65.3 years(range 49-81 years) and average hospital stay was 4.5 d. The mean operative time was 65 min(range 40-120 min). Related adverse events reported were mesh extrusions(6.7%) and post void residual urine volume(13.3%). There were no visceral injuries, no infection of the mesh, and no symptoms of recurrent prolapse. All quality-of-life scores signifi cantly improved from baseline. CONCLUSION: One year's follow-up of our 30 patients confi rms the safety and the effi cacy of the Elevate Anterior and Posterior transvaginal mesh procedure for POP treatment. Our fi nal results are comforting but longer term follow-up is ongoing. | Sarah Gustapane Martina Leombroni Eleonora Falò Alessandro Santarelli Franco Frondaroli Marco Liberati Emanuele Perrone Andrea Tinelli | 2013 | World Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology2013,2,4: | 0 |
| 8 | Subclinical hypothyroidism in atopic South Italian children显示文摘AIM:To verify if subclinical hypothyroidism(SCH) could be associated to atopy in children.METHODS:Seven hundred and thirty-two Caucasian children from South Italy presenting symptoms of allergic disease were enrolled and submitted to atopy,obesity,chronic low grade inflammation,and SCH work up.RESULTS:Four hundred and forty-five out of 705(63.12%) children affected by allergic disease were diagnosed as atopic and 260(36.88%) as not atopic.The SCH prevalence was 6.3%.Significant higher prevalence of SCH among atopic children with average(group 2) and high(group 3) low grade chronic inflammation compared to atopic children with mild(group 1)low grade chronic inflammation was present.Moreover,group 1 and group 2 presented an OR to show SCH of2.57(95%CI:1.55-6.26) and 2.96(95%CI:1.01-8.65),respectively.Both in atopic and not atopic children we found C3 serum levels significantly higher in group 3respect to group 2 and group 1.Noteworthy,among atopic patients,also total immunoglobulin E(IgE) serum levels,were significantly higher in group 3 compared to group 2 and group 1 children.In atopic children,C3 and total IgE serum values increased in parallel with the increase of C-reactive protein values,while in not atopic children this phenomenon was not evident.CONCLUSION:The possibility exists that an increasing atopic inflammation contributes to SCH occurrence.So far this is the first report in literature showing an association between SCH and atopy but further studies are needed to confirm our data. | Marcella Pedullà Vincenzo Fierro Pierluigi Marzuillo Ester Del Tufo Anna Grandone Laura Perrone Emanuele Miraglia del Giudice | 2016 | World Journal of Clinical Pediatrics2016,5,3: | 0 |
