Abstract
AIM The treatment of achalasia consists of reducing distal esophageal obstruction by either Heller myotomy surgery or endoscopic pneumatic dilatation. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the short- and middle-term results of these procedures in children. METHODOLOGY For technical reasons, children under six years old (n=8) were treated by surgery only, whereas patients over six years old (n=14) were treated by either Heller myotomy or pneumatic dilatation. RESULTS Of the children aged under six years, 75% were symptom-free at six months and 83% at 24 months of follow-up. Of the patients aged over six years, complete remission was achieved by Heller myotomy in 44.5% vs. 55.5% by pneumatic dilatation after six months, and in 40% vs. 65%, respectively, after 24 months. Both pneumatic dilatation and Heller myotomy showed significant rates of failure. CONCLUSION These results suggest that pneumatic dilatation may be considered a primary treatment in children over six years old. Also, where necessary, Heller myotomy and pneumatic dilatation may be used as complementary treatments.

Abstract
1016 Background: Despite reports of widespread use of off-label agents in cancer treatment, little is known about the off-label use of agents in the treatment of breast cancer patients. Methods: We used data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) - Medicare linked database to identify 2082 persons older than 65 years who were diagnosed with distant stage breast cancer between 1991 and 2002 and who were treated with chemotherapy between diagnosis and death. Off versus on-label classification was based upon FDA-approved indication in the treatment of breast cancer. We calculated the percentage of patients receiving off-label chemotherapy and used multivariate logistic regression models to estimate predictors of off-label chemotherapy use. We also evaluated the appropriateness of off-label chemotherapy drugs using DRUGDEX classifications. Results: Overall, 34.9% of patients were treated with off-label chemotherapy drugs. Of the thirty-six agents that were used to treat these patients, only 8 (22%) were FDA-approved for use in the treatment of breast cancer. Off-label use was least common in patients age 80 years and older (OR 1.93, 95% 1.35–2.76 for 80+ vs. 66–70 years) and varied by diagnosis year and geographic region. The most commonly used off-label agents were vinorelbine and gemcitabine, with 16.0% and 8.4% of patients receiving these agents, respectively. While 71% of the drugs used off-label lacked supporting evidence for their use in the treatment of breast cancer, these drugs were used in a small number of patients. Only 6.7% of patients were treated with drugs considered inappropriate for use in the treatment of breast cancer. Conclusions: Off-label chemotherapy use is widespread among patients with metastatic breast cancer. However, the majority of patients who received off-label chemotherapy received drugs with scientific data supporting such use. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Ingestion of foreign bodies is a common pediatric problem. The majority of ingested foreign bodies pass spontaneously. Management of foreign body ingestions varies based upon the object ingested, its location, and the patient's age and past history. Esophageal foreign bodies should be urgently removed because of their potential to cause complications. Ingested batteries that lodge in the esophagus, sharp or pointed foreign bodies in the esophageal or gastric tract, and ingestion of multiple magnets all require urgent endoscopic removal. Flexible endoscopy is the therapeutic modality of choice for most patients. The use of devices such as a latex protector hood or an overtube may facilitate safer extraction of sharp objects.

Abstract
Antarctic marine bacteria were screened for their ability to degrade polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) as the sole carbon and energy source at both 4 degrees C and 15 degrees C. PCB-degrading isolates (7.1%) were identified by sequencing their 16S rDNA as Pseudoalteromonas, Psychrobacter and Arthrobacter members. One representative isolate per genera was selected for evaluating the biodegradative potential under laboratory scale and phenotypically characterized. Removal of individual PCB congeners was between 35.6% and 79.8% at 4 degrees C and between 0.4% and 82.8% at 15 degrees C. Differences in the removal patterns of PCB congeners were observed in relation to the phylogenetic affiliation: Arthrobacter isolate showed similar biodegradation efficiencies when growing at 4 degrees C and 15 degrees C, while Pseudoalteromonas better degraded PCBs at 15 degrees C. No biodegradation was detected for Psychrobacter isolate at 4 degrees C. Results obtained highlight the occurrence of PCB-degrading bacteria in Antarctic seawater and suggest the potential exploitation of autochthonous bacteria for PCB bioremediation in cold marine environments.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Gastrostomy is frequently used in clinical practice for drug administration. However modalities of drug administration via a gastrostomy device have been poorly studied and remain uncodified. AIM To assess the mode of administration of drugs as well as errors associated with the use of a gastrostomy devices for drug delivery in children. PATIENTS AND METHODS Mode of administration of drugs was studied in 109 children (mean age 8.4+/-5.5 years, 72% neurologically impaired, 41% institutionalized children). A questionnaire was filled in by parents and/or caregivers. Errors of administration were classified as follows: galenic, due to preparation, physico-chemical interaction, lack of flushing the tube. Factors influencing the occurrence of errors were studied: living at home or in an institution, underlying disease, number of drugs administered via gastrostomy device. RESULTS Errors were frequently observed: galenic (47%), due to preparation (42%), physico-chemical interaction (51%), lack of flushing (10%). Errors occurred more frequently in institutionalized children compared to children living at home (78 versus 25%, P<0.0005). Galenic errors were more frequent in neurologically impaired children (57 versus 30%, P<0.005). CONCLUSION Many medications are administrated via gastrostomy tube in children. Errors are frequently observed and potentially dangerous.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can noninvasively quantify white matter (WM) integrity. Although its application in adult traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common, few studies in children have been reported. The purposes of this study were to examine the alteration of fractional anisotropy (FA) in children with TBI experienced during early childhood and to quantify the association between FA and injury severity. MATERIALS AND METHODS FA was assessed in 9 children with TBI (age = 7.89 +/- 1.00 years; Glasgow Coma Scale [GCS] = 10.11 +/- 4.68) and a control group of 12 children with orthopedic injuries without central nervous system involvement (age = 7.51 +/- 0.95 years). All of the subjects were at minimum 12 months after injury. We examined group differences in a series of predetermined WM regions of interest with t test analysis. We subsequently conducted a voxel-wise comparison with Spearman partial correlation analysis. Correlations between FA and injury severity were also calculated on a voxel-wise basis. RESULTS FA values were significantly reduced in the TBI group in genu of corpus callosum (CC), posterior limb of internal capsule (PLIC), superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF), superior fronto-occipital fasciculus (SFO), and centrum semiovale (CS). GCS scores were positively correlated with FA in several WM areas including CC, PLIC, SLF, CS, SFO, and inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFO). CONCLUSION This DTI study provides evidence that WM integrity remains abnormal in children with moderate-to-severe TBI experienced during early childhood and that injury severity correlated strongly with FA.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate the lipolytic activity of cold-adapted Antarctic marine bacteria and, furthermore, the combined effect of some environmental factors on this enzymatic process. METHODS AND RESULTS Strains were assayed for lipolytic activity on a basal medium amended with seven individual fatty acid esters. A significant activity was observed for 148 isolates (95.5% of the total screened). The interactive effect of pH, temperature and NaCl concentration on the substrates was tested for six representative isolates, identified as Pseudoalteromonas, Psychrobacter and Vibrio. Differences between strains according to NaCl and pH tolerances were observed. Only one strain degraded the substrate more efficiently at 4 degrees C than at 15 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate that the lipolytic activity of Antarctic marine bacteria is rather variable, depending on culture conditions, and occurs in a wide range of salt concentration and pH. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Isolation and characterization of bacteria that are able to efficiently remove lipids at low temperatures will provide insight into the possibility to use cold-adapted bacteria as a source of exploitable enzymes. Moreover, research on the interactive effects of salt concentration, pH and temperature will be useful to understand the true enzyme potentialities for industrial applications.

Abstract
One hundred and forty bacteria isolated from Antarctic seawater samples were examined for their ability to inhibit the growth of indigenous isolates and their sensitivity to antibacterial activity expressed by one another. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing and analysis, bacterial isolates were assigned to five phylogenetically different taxa, Actinobacteria, alpha and gamma subclasses of Proteobacteria, Bacillaceae, and Bacteroidetes. Twenty-one isolates (15%), predominantly Actinobacteria, exhibited antagonistic properties against marine bacteria of Antarctic origin. Members of Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes did not show any inhibitory activity. Differences were observed among inhibition patterns of single isolates, suggesting that their activity was more likely strain-specific rather than dependent on phylogenetic affiliation. A novel analysis based on network theory confirmed these results, showing that the structure of this population is probably robust to perturbations, but also that it depends strongly on the most active strains. The determination of plasmid incidence in the bacterial strains investigated revealed that there was no correlation between their presence and the antagonistic activity. The data presented here provide evidence for the antagonistic interactions within bacterial strains inhabiting Antarctic seawater and suggest the potential exploitation of Antarctic bacteria as a novel source of antibiotics.
