Abstract
Breastfeeding is the main source of nutrition during first months of life. Its composition varies according to parameters like mother's diet and health, living area, number of pregnancies and lactation duration… Trace-elements concentration in breastmilk is then an important parameter that can affect infant's health, growth or immune system and organ functions. Few data are available on this topic, and results are often very variable. The aim of this work is to determine reference values of Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Selenium (Se), Cobalt (Co), Iron (Fe) and Iodine (I) in human breastmilk according to lactation duration and to study influencing parameters on its elementary composition. Regional Human Milk Bank of Necker Enfants Malades Hospital provided samples that came from breastfeeding woman involved in voluntary milk donation and epidemiologic data. Two hundred thirty-two breastmilk were analysed. After nitric acid mineralization of milk samples, Cu, Zn, Se, Co and I were determined by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) in a standard mode. Fe was measured by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Both assays were validated in terms of sensitivity, repeatability and accuracy.Studied breast milks came from mothers with an average age of 32 years and donation time ranged from one day after childbirth to 974 days (> 2.5 years); mean lactation duration is 59 days (> 8 weeks) while median duration is 29 days (around 4 weeks). In all studied samples, mean results and reference values are for Cu: 6.02 (1.71-13.23), Zn: 43.86 (7.3-107.0), Se: 0.12 (0.07-0.24), I: 0.29 (0.07-1.01) and Fe: 4.72 (1.25-11.49) µmol/L and for Co: 12.28 (5.27-25.82) nmol/L. Important number of studied milks allowed their distribution into seven classes of lactation durations. Samples were divided into four successive classes of fifteen days after childbirth, two other classes corresponding to the 3rd and 4th months and a last class for milks sampled after 4 months of lactation. Results were analysed in each class allowing study of evolution during lactation. That was particularly interesting for Zn, that presented an important variability in the total population (4-132 µmol/L) explained by variation along lactation evolution decreasing from 48 to 17 µmol/L in first and last duration classes respectively. In addition, Cu and Fe concentrations were also significantly correlated with lactation duration while Se and I were in a lesser extent (p = 0.002). In this study, we present reference values for studied trace elements at different lactation stages, allowing a fine interpretation of future breast milk samples results according to their sampling time. By continuing this study, we plan to increase number of samples in some of the classes and to study the influence of premature birth or twin pregnancy on breast milk elementary composition.

Abstract
Liver diseases in pregnancy comprise both gestational liver disorders and acute and chronic hepatic disorders occurring coincidentally in pregnancy. Whether related to pregnancy or pre-existing, liver diseases in pregnancy are associated with a significant risk of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Thus, the European Association for the Study of Liver Disease invited a panel of experts to develop clinical practice guidelines aimed at providing recommendations, based on the best available evidence, for the management of liver disease in pregnancy for hepatologists, gastroenterologists, obstetric physicians, general physicians, obstetricians, specialists in training and other healthcare professionals who provide care for this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wilson disease (WD) is a rare, hereditary disorder of copper metabolism. Due to its variable symptoms and manifestations, diagnosis remains challenging. Affected patients must obtain lifelong medical treatment, as the disease is fatal if untreated. Patients require continuous monitoring, but little is known about the care of these patients in Germany. Therefore, we analyzed the medical care of WD patients at German university centers. We sent a questionnaire containing 20 questions to a total of 108 departments of pediatrics, neurology and gastroenterology in 36 university hospitals. Our questions referred to the characteristics of WD patients at the different sites and internal procedures regarding diagnosis, therapy and follow-up. A descriptive statistical analysis was performed. RESULTS Sixty-three departments (58%) returned our questionnaire. In total, approximately one-third of the estimated WD patients in Germany are seen annually in the outpatient clinics of these departments (approx. 950 patients). There are only a few departments which treat patients in a multidisciplinary setting (12%). Our survey revealed that for diagnosis, 51% of all departments used an algorithm based on the Leipzig score as recommended by international guidelines. Most departments apply essential parameters recommended by WD guidelines. Routine monitoring is performed at least biannually by 84% of the departments, and standard investigations for monitoring are regularly applied. A routine family screening is performed by 84% of all departments. A reduction in medical therapy during pregnancy is recommended by 46% of the departments. Only 14% suggested that WD patients should not breastfeed. Liver transplantation (LT) due to WD is a rare but repeatedly occurring event. Most departments of gastroenterology (72%) reported at least one patient with LT within the last decade. CONCLUSIONS Medical care of WD patients at German university centers follows the recommendations set forth by international guidelines, but only a few centers treat significant numbers of patients. The surveillance of patients does not follow specified standards, but most departments adhere to the accepted guidelines. The formation of central units and networks in a multidisciplinary setting should be evaluated to improve the care of WD patients.

Abstract
Scope Lack of information about the impact of maternal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection on the elemental and metabolomic profile of human milk (HM). Methods and results An observational study on HM from mothers with COVID‐19 is conducted including a prepandemic control group. Maternal–infant clinical records and symptomatology are recorded. The absolute quantification of elements and untargeted relative metabolomic profiles are determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry, respectively. Associations of HM SARS‐CoV‐2 antibodies with elemental and metabolomic profiles are studied. COVID‐19 has a significant impact on HM composition. COVID‐19 reduces the concentrations of Fe, Cu, Se, Ni, V, and Aluminium (Al) and increases Zn compared to prepandemic control samples. A total of 18 individual metabolites including amino acids, peptides, fatty acids and conjugates, purines and derivatives, alcohols, and polyols are significantly different in HM from SARS‐CoV‐2 positive mothers. Aminoacyl‐tRNA biosynthesis, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, phenylalanine, and linoleic acid pathways are significantly altered. Differences are obtained depending on COVID‐19 symptomatic and asymptomatic status. Conclusions This study provides unique insights about the impact of maternal SARS‐CoV‐2 infection on the elemental and metabolomic profiles of HM that warrants further research due the potential implications for infant health.

Abstract
Wilson's disease is an autosomal-recessive disorder of copper metabolism with hepatic, neurological, psychiatric, ophthalmological, haematological, renal, and rheumatological manifestations. Making a diagnosis can be challenging given that no single test can confirm or exclude the disease, and diagnostic delays are common. Treatment protocols vary and adverse effects, including paradoxical neurological worsening, can occur. In this Review, we provide a practical guide to the diagnosis of Wilson's disease. We include recommendations on indications for testing, how to interpret results, and when additional investigations are required. We also cover treatment initiation, ideally under the guidance of a specialist centre for Wilson's disease, and the principles behind long-term management. This guidance was developed by a multidisciplinary group of Wilson's disease experts formed through the British Association for the Study of the Liver. The guidance has been endorsed by the British Society of Gastroenterology and approved by the Association of British Neurologists.

Abstract
Wilson’s disease (WD) is a rare inherited disorder of human copper metabolism, with an estimated prevalence of 1:30000-1:50000 and a broad spectrum of hepatic and neuropsychiatric manifestations. In healthy individuals, the bile is the main route of elimination of copper. In WD patients, copper accumulates in the liver, it is released into the bloodstream, and is excreted in urine. Copper can also be accumulated in the brain, kidneys, heart, and osseous matter and causes damage due to direct toxicity or oxidative stress. Hepatic WD is commonly but not exclusively diagnosed in childhood or young adulthood. Adherent, non-cirrhotic WD patients seem to have a normal life expectancy. Nevertheless, chronic management of patients with Wilson’s disease is challenging, as available biochemical tests have many limitations and do not allow a clear identification of non-compliance, overtreatment, or treatment goals. To provide optimal care, clinicians should have a complete understanding of these limitations and counterbalance them with a thorough clinical assessment. The aim of this review is to provide clinicians with practical tools and suggestions which may answer doubts that can arise during chronic management of patients with hepatic WD. In particular, it summarises current knowledge on Wilson’s disease clinical and biochemical monitoring and treatment. It also analyses available evidence on pregnancy and the role of low-copper diet in WD. Future research should focus on trying to provide new copper metabolism tests which could help to guide treatment adjustments.
