Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Since the description of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBL) as a distinct entity from diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL), numerous studies have made it possible to improve their definition. Despite this, this differential diagnosis can be challenging in daily practice. However, in some centers, PMBL may be treated according to a particular regimen, distinct from those used in DLBCL, emphasizing the importance of accurate identification at diagnosis. This study aimed to describe the histological and molecular characteristics of PMBL to improve the accuracy of their diagnosis. Forty-nine cases of PMBL were retrospectively retrieved. The mean age at diagnosis was 39 years (21-83), with a sex ratio of 0.88. All cases presented a fibrous background with diffuse growth of intermediate to large cells with an eosinophil (26/49, 53%) or retracted cytoplasm (23/49, 47%). "Hodgkin-like" cells were observed in 65% of cases (32/49, 65%). The phenotype was: BCL6+ (47/49, 96%), MUM1+ (40/49, 82%), CD30+ (43/49, 88%), and CD23+ (37/49, 75%). Genomic DNAs were tested by next generation sequencing of 33 cases using a custom design panel. Pathogenic variants were found in all cases. The most frequent mutations were: SOCS1 (30/33, 91%), TNFAIP3 (18/33, 54.5%), ITPKB (17/33, 51.5%), GNA13 (16/33, 48.5%), CD58 (12/33, 36.4%), B2M (12/33; 36.4%), STAT6 (11/33, 33.3%) as well as ARID1A (10/33, 30.3%), XPO1 (9/33, 27.3%), CIITA (8/33, 24%), and NFKBIE (8/33, 24%). The present study describes a PMBL cohort on morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular levels to provide pathologists with daily routine tools. These data also reinforce interest in an integrated histomolecular diagnosis to allow a precision diagnosis as early as possible.

Abstract
Several therapies to improve the management of lymphoma are currently being investigated, necessitating the development of new biomarkers. However, this requires high-quality and clinically annotated biological material. Therefore, we established a lymphoma biobank including all available biological material (tissue specimens and matched biological resources) along with associated clinical data for lymphoma patients diagnosed, according to the WHO classification, between 2005 and 2022 in the Laboratory of Clinical and Experimental Pathology, Nice, France. We retrospectively included selected cases in a new collection at the Côte d'Azur Biobank, which contains 2150 samples from 363 cases (351 patients). The male/female ratio was 1.3, and the median age at diagnosis was 58 years. The most common lymphoma types were classical Hodgkin lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and extra-nodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT tissue. The main sites of lymphoma were the mediastinum, lymph node, Waldeyer's ring, and lung. The Côte d'Azur Biobank is ISO 9001 and ISO 20387 certified and aims to provide high quality and diverse biological material to support translational research projects into lymphoma. The clinico-pathological data generated by this collection should aid the development of new biomarkers to enhance the survival of patients with lymphoid malignancies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is a medical syndrome characterised by reduced physiological reserve and increased vulnerability to stressors. Data regarding the relationship between frailty and atrial fibrillation (AF) are still inconsistent. OBJECTIVES We aim to perform a comprehensive evaluation of frailty in a large European cohort of AF patients. METHODS A 40-item frailty index (FI) was built according to the accumulation of deficits model in the AF patients enrolled in the ESC-EHRA EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry. Association of baseline characteristics, clinical management, quality of life, healthcare resources use and risk of outcomes with frailty was examined. RESULTS Among 10,177 patients [mean age (standard deviation) 69.0 (11.4) years, 4,103 (40.3%) females], 6,066 (59.6%) were pre-frail and 2,172 (21.3%) were frail, whereas only 1,939 (19.1%) were considered robust. Baseline thromboembolic and bleeding risks were independently associated with increasing FI. Frail patients with AF were less likely to be treated with oral anticoagulants (OACs) (odds ratio 0.70, 95% confidence interval 0.55-0.89), especially with non-vitamin K antagonist OACs and managed with a rhythm control strategy, compared with robust patients. Increasing frailty was associated with a higher risk for all outcomes examined, with a non-linear exponential relationship. The use of OAC was associated with a lower risk of outcomes, except in patients with very/extremely high frailty. CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort of AF patients, there was a high burden of frailty, influencing clinical management and risk of adverse outcomes. The clinical benefit of OAC is maintained in patients with high frailty, but not in very high/extremely frail ones.

Abstract
Rosette-forming glioneuronal tumour (RGNT) is a rare CNS WHO grade 1 brain neoplasm. According to WHO 2021, essential diagnostic criteria are a "biphasic histomorphology with neurocytic and a glial component, and uniform neurocytes forming rosettes and/or perivascular pseudorosettes associated with synaptophysin expression" and/or DNA methylation profile of RGNT whereas "FGFR1 mutation with co-occurring PIK3CA and/or NF1 mutation" are desirable criteria. MATERIAL AND METHODS We report a series of 46 cases fulfilling the essential pathological diagnostic criteria for RGNT. FGFR1 and PIK3CA hotspot mutations were searched for by multiplex digital PCR in all cases whereas DNA methylation profiling and/or PIK3R1 and NF1 alterations were analysed in a subset of cases. RESULTS Three groups were observed. The first one included 21 intracranial midline tumours demonstrating FGFR1 mutation associated with PIK3CA or PIK3R1 (n=19) or NF1 (n=1) or PIK3CA and NF1 (n=1) mutation. By DNA methylation profiling, 8 cases were classified as RGNT (they demonstrated FGFR1 and PIK3CA or PIK3R1 mutations). Group 2 comprised 11 cases associated with one single FGFR1 mutation. Group 3 included 6 cases classified as LGG other than RGNT (1/6 showed FGFR1 mutation and one a FGFR1 and NF1 mutation) and 8 cases without FGFR1 mutation. Groups 2 and 3 were enriched in lateral and spinal cases. CONCLUSIONS We suggest adding FGFR1 mutation and intracranial midline location as essential diagnostic criteria. When DNA methylation profiling is not available, a RGNT diagnosis remains certain in cases demonstrating characteristic pathological features and FGFR1 mutation associated with either PIK3CA or PIK3R1 mutation.

Abstract
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a small B-cell lymphoma, which has been recognized as a distinct pathological entity since the WHO 2008 classification. It classically presents an indolent evolution, but a third of patients progress rapidly and require aggressive treatments, such as immuno-chemotherapy or splenectomy, with all associated side effects. In recent years, advances in the comprehension of SMZL physiopathology have multiplied, thanks to the arrival of new devices in the panel of available molecular biology techniques, allowing the discovery of new molecular findings. In the era of targeted therapies, an update of current knowledge is needed to guide future researches, such as those on epigenetic modifications or the microenvironment of these lymphomas.

Abstract
About 23% of adnexal tumors are related to a hereditary syndrome, most often hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome or Lynch syndrome, responsible of epithelial tumors. However, the pathologist should be aware of rare hereditary syndromes responsible of non-epithelial ovarian tumors. Ovarian tumors associated with germline mutation of BRCA genes are essentially high-grade serous carcinomas of tubal origin, while those seen in Lynch syndrome are most often endometrioid or clear cell carcinomas. Sex-cord tumors associated with a familial predisposition are Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors in DICER syndrome and sex-cord tumors with annular tubules in Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Small cell carcinoma of hypercalcemic type may be associated with a rhabdoid tumor predisposition syndrome 2. Finally, rare germ cell tumors have been reported related to ataxia telangiectasia. The recognition of these entities by pathologists is crucial. Even though the morphologic features pointing toward an inherited mutation may vary depending on the syndrome, the diagnosis may contribute to refer the patient for genetic counselling, modifying the management and follow-up of the patient and her family.

Abstract
The effectiveness of a 12-week course of sofosbuvir-ledipasvir in treatment-experienced HCV genotype 1b-infected patients with cirrhosis is still under debate. Our primary endpoint was to compare the sustained virological response at post-treatment week 12 (SVR12) of sofosbuvir-ledipasvir in combination with ribavirin for 12 weeks, and sofosbuvir-ledipasvir alone for 24 weeks. This was a prospective observational study that enrolled 424 (195 naive, 229 experienced; 164 treated for 12 weeks with Ribavirin and 260 with sofosbuvir-ledipasvir alone for 24 weeks) consecutive HCV genotype 1b-infected patients with cirrhosis. The SVR12 rates were 93.9% and 99.2% in patients treated for 12 and 24 weeks, respectively (P = .002). The baseline characteristics of patients treated for 12 weeks were significantly different from those treated for 24 weeks as regards their younger age (P = .002), prevalence of Child-Pugh class A (P = .002), lower MELD scores (P = .001) and smaller number of nonresponders (P = .04). The shorter treatment was significantly associated with a lower SVR12 in univariate and multivariate analyses (P = .007 and P = .008, respectively). The SVR rate was unaffected by age, gender, BMI, Child-Pugh class, MELD score or previous antiviral treatment. Patients receiving ribavirin experienced more episodes of ascites and headache but less recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and were prescribed more diuretics and cardiopulmonary drugs. No patient discontinued treatment. The therapeutic regimen of sofosbuvir-ledipasvir plus ribavirin administered for 12 weeks was less effective than sofosbuvir-ledipasvir alone given for 24 weeks. At odds with European guidelines, the recommended 12-week treatment with sofosbuvir-ledipasvir alone might be suboptimal for this setting of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a common complex disease with a strong genetic involvement. We aimed to identify novel, rare, highly penetrant risk variants combining family-based linkage analysis with whole-exome sequencing (WES). METHODS Linkage analysis of 16 kindreds of South Italian ancestry was performed using an 'affected-only' strategy. Eight most informative trios composed of two familial cases and an intrafamilial control were selected for WES. High-priority variants in linked regions were identified and validated using Sanger sequencing. Custom TaqMan assays were designed and carried out in the 16 kindreds and an independent cohort of 240 IgAN patients and 113 control subjects. RESULTS We found suggestive linkage signals in 12 loci. After sequential filtering and validation of WES data, we identified 24 private or extremely rare (MAF <0.0003) linked variants segregating with IgAN status. These were present within coding or regulatory regions of 23 genes that merged into a common functional network. The genes were interconnected by AKT, CTNNB1, NFKB, MYC and UBC, key modulators of WNT/β-catenin and PI3K/Akt pathways, which are implicated in IgAN pathogenesis. Overlaying publicly available expression data, genes/proteins with expression notably altered in IgAN were included in this immune-related network. In particular, the network included the glucocorticoid receptor gene, NR3C1, which is the target of corticosteroid therapy routinely used in the treatment of IgAN. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that disease susceptibility could be influenced by multiple rare variants acting in a common network that could provide the starting point for the identification of potential drug targets for personalized therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE IgA Nephropathy (IgAN) is a common kidney disease which may entail renal failure, known as End Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD). One of the major difficulties dealing with this disease is to predict the time of the long-term prognosis for a patient at the time of diagnosis. In fact, the progression of IgAN to ESKD depends on an intricate interrelationship between clinical and laboratory findings. Therefore, the objective of this work has been the selection of the best data mining tool to build a model able to predict (I) if a patient with a biopsy proven IgAN will reach ESKD and (II) if a patient will reach the ESKD before or after 5 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS The largest available cohort study worldwide on IgAN has been used to design and compare several data-driven models. The complete dataset was composed of 1174 records collected from Italian, Norwegian, and Japanese IgAN patients, in the last 30 years. The data mining tools considered in this work were artificial neural networks (ANNs), neuro fuzzy systems (NFSs), support vector machines (SVMs), and decision trees (DTs). A 10-fold cross validation was used to evaluate unbiased performances for all the models. RESULTS An extensive model comparison based on accuracy, precision, recall, and f-measure was provided. Overall, the results indicate that ANNs can provide superior performance compared to the other models. The ANN for time-to-ESKD prediction is characterized by accuracy, precision, recall, and f-measure greater than 90%. The ANN for ESKD prediction has accuracy greater than 90% as well as precision, recall, and f-measure for the class of patients not reaching ESKD, while precision, recall, and f-measure for the class of patients reaching ESKD are slightly lower. The obtained model has been implemented in a Web-based decision support system (DSS). CONCLUSIONS The extraction of novel knowledge from clinical data and the definition of predictive models to support diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy is becoming an essential tool for researchers and clinical practitioners in medicine. The proposed comparative study of several data mining models for the outcome prediction in IgAN patients, using a large dataset of clinical records from three different countries, provides an insight into the relative prediction ability of the considered methods applied to such a disease.

Abstract
Transient neonatal hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (TNHI) is a form of neonatal-onset hyperinsulinism which usually resolves completely in a few days or months. It is secondary to conditions such as maternal diabetes mellitus or intra-uterine growth retardation. Other rare causes of TNHI are perinatal asphyxia and gestational diabetes. Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HI) is also observed in association with rare metabolic or genetic conditions. It can also occur in newborns without risk factors. TNHI is usually a transient phenomenon. However, some newborns can have prolonged HI that requires treatment with diazoxide, persists for several months and then resolves spontaneously. Neonatal hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia must be promptly and correctly diagnosed and treated in order to avoid neurological consequences. We describe a case of transient neonatal hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia in a full-term born without perinatal complications and appropriate for gestational age with an unfavourable neurological outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose was to assess in Italy the clinical features at diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in children. METHODS In 1996 an IBD register of disease onset was established on a national scale. RESULTS Up to the end of 2003, 1576 cases of pediatric IBD were recorded: 810 (52%) ulcerative colitis (UC), 635 (40%) Crohn's disease (CD), and 131 (8%) indeterminate colitis (IC). In the period 1996-2003 an increase of IBD incidence from 0.89 to 1.39/10(5) inhabitants aged <18 years was observed. IBD was more frequent among children aged between 6 and 12 years (57%) but 20% of patients had onset of the disease under 6 years of age; 28 patients were <1 year of age. Overall, 11% had 1 or more family members with IBD. The mean interval between onset of symptoms and diagnosis was higher in CD (10.1 months) and IC (9 months) versus UC (5.8 months). Extended colitis was the most frequent form in UC and ileocolic involvement the most frequent in CD. Upper intestinal tract involvement was present in 11% of CD patients. IC locations were similar to those of UC. Bloody diarrhea and abdominal pain were the most frequent symptoms in UC and IC, and abdominal pain and diarrhea in CD. Extraintestinal symptoms were more frequent in CD than in UC. CONCLUSIONS The IBD incidence in children and adolescents in Italy shows an increasing trend for all 3 pathologies. UC diagnoses exceeded CD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the clinical spectrum of peripheral multifocal choroiditis (PMC) and its association with sarcoidosis. METHODS Thirty-seven patients examined between November 1997 and November 2001 who met all diagnostic criteria for PMC were included in this retrospective study. Patients were assessed for the following signs of sarcoidosis: typical changes on chest radiography or computed tomography; predominantly CD4 lymphocytosis in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; elevated serum angiotensin-converting enzyme levels; elevated gallium uptake; and noncaseating granuloma on biopsy. RESULTS Most of the patients were female (30 of 37; 81%) and white (30 of 37; 81%). Mean +/- SD age at onset was 57.5 +/- 18.7 years. Seven (19%) of the 37 patients had biopsy-proven sarcoidosis and 18 patients (49%) with presumed sarcoidosis met at least 2 of the above-mentioned criteria for sarcoidosis but had normal biopsy results. Twelve patients (32%) had an indeterminate diagnosis. Patients with presumed sarcoidosis did not differ from those with proven sarcoidosis as regards the above-mentioned criteria, except for noncaseating granuloma, implying that more than two-thirds of patients (predominantly whites) had underlying sarcoidosis. Most patients with positive gallium scintigraphy had increased mediastinal uptake, as described in sarcoidosis. Patients with underlying sarcoidosis had more severe visual impairment due to cystoid macular edema (CME). Weekly methotrexate (0.3 mg/kg) seemed to control CME. CONCLUSION White patients with PMC should be considered to have sarcoidosis. The identification of sarcoidosis in patients with severe ocular disease can help with therapeutic choices.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence of urinary incontinence among institutionalized elderly people. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on 839 subjects, resident in 14 residential or nursing homes. A questionnaire was administered to the study population and their clinical records were reviewed. RESULTS The overall prevalence of urinary incontinence was 54.5%, higher in women (59.8%) than in men (39.2%). The prevalence increased significantly with age, from 26.5% in subjects 65 years old or younger to 73.7% in subjects 95 years old or older; with worsening of mental status, from 36.2% in well-oriented subjects to 76.7% in poorly oriented subjects; and with worsening of mobility, from 23.8% in self-sufficient subjects to 82.1% in bedridden patients. The prevalence was significantly associated with parity, from 54.1% in nulliparous women to 65.4% in multiparous women. Urinary incontinence was also associated with urinary tract infection, constipation, and fecal incontinence. CONCLUSIONS The results of our study are in accordance with other similar studies. That more than one half of the elderly residents of nursing and residential homes have urinary incontinence shows the relevance of this condition. We believe that urinary incontinence in institutionalized elderly people can be managed essentially by measures of tertiary prevention, aimed at reducing the handicapping conditions and at slowing down the process of self-sufficiency impairment.

Abstract
The authors present the investigations and surgical treatment of two cases of duodenal cystic duplication. Abdominal pain and gastroesophageal reflux were the most important symptoms and signs associated with an history of recurrent acute pancreatitis. Computed tomography scan, ultrasound examination, and cholangiography confirmed preoperatively the diagnosis, and a transduodenal surgical approach was carried out in both children. A simple marsupialization of the cyst was performed in the former, and a sphincterotomy with papillosphincteroplasty was associated in the latter. The diagnosis was confirmed by microscopy, and both the children are asymptomatic after a 14 and 18 months of follow-up. This report focuses on the importance of the cholangiopancreatography for every child presenting with recurrent, unexplained bouts of acute pancreatitis, and underlines the technical surgical aspects on the basis of the anatomic identification of the malformation.

Abstract
Two cases of recurrent pancreatitis, due to duodenal duplication, are reported. The aim of this paper is to emphasise the role of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) in the detection of associated pancreaticobiliary anomalies and in the planning of the correct surgical approach. The order of imaging in a child with recurrent pancreatitis should be US, barium meal and PTC. ERCP is often difficult to perform in children.

Abstract
Neurogenic voiding dysfunction invariably follows a complete spinal cord lesion. With spinal shock urodynamic investigation will show an areflexic bladder if the sacral spinal cord has been damaged, otherwise, if the lesion involves the suprasacral cord, an overactive bladder will result. There are some exceptions to this rule, particularly in those with lesions of the thoracolumbar vertebral junction, where the sacral cord is located, it may be difficult to predict urodynamic dysfunction merely on the basis of the vertebral body involved. 46 patients with a complete SCI neurological lesion at the thoraco-lumbar vertebral junction underwent a neurourological evaluation including multi-channel urodynamic studies. Overall in 20 to 36% of the patients the urodynamic pattern was different from what one would have expected considering the anatomical level of the vertebral body involved. Urodynamic study is confirmed as an essential tool in the correct diagnostic and therapeutic approach to the voiding dysfunction in these type of patients.

Abstract
Bladder stones represent a troublesome complication in patients suffering from neurogenic voiding dysfunction, in whom prompt and effective therapy is required. A variety of endoscopic lithotripsy methods are available; however, current devices can be tedious to use. We have treated 17 patients affected by bladder calculi and spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis by means of the ballistic lithotripter EMS Swiss Lithoclast. The mean diameter of the stones was 2.7 cm. The mean operative time was 27 minutes. There were five intraoperative complications, including crises of autonomic dysreflexia (three patients) and light hematuria (two patients). There was no malfunction of the lithotripter and no long-term complications. All the patients were stone free at 6 months postoperatively. In conclusion, endoscopic lithotripsy with the ballistic lithotripter proved to be a very effective, rapid, and safe method for treating bladder calculi in patients with neurogenic bladders.

Abstract
In adults the development of modern equipment for ambulatory monitoring permits long-term evaluation of the lower urinary tract which is more accurate than standard urodynamics (SUD). In children continuous urodynamic monitoring (CUM) has been used infrequently and therefore standardisation of the method has not been previously achieved, nor have the techniques and difficulties of performing 24-hour monitoring been solved. The aim of this study was to identify a technical method of CUM in children which was feasible and to verify its usefulness. For this purpose, we reviewed our preliminary experiences of CUM in children with neuropathic bladder. From March to November 1995 we made an outpatient study of the neuropathic bladders of 11 myelodysplastic children aged 1 to 18 years (average age 10.2 years). 7 of them were males and 4 females. All underwent SUD. With the children resting in bed, a 6-hour CUM (Lectromed MPR-2) was performed using a 4 Fr. microtip intravesical catheter (suprapubic in 3 infants and transurethral in 8 children) and an intrarectal catheter. The parents and/or a nurse monitored the fluid intake and micturition events and recorded the data in a diary. Based on the CUM experience in infants with non-neurogenic bladder dysfunction, the 3 suprapubic studies were done after 12 hours of urethral drainage in order to prevent leakage of urine. In all of the patients we were able to study 2 to 4 bladder fillings during a period of 6 to 8 hours (average 6.5 hours) observation. In 9 of the 11 children the CUM pattern was comparable to the SUD one but in the 2 remaining patients CUM showed uninhibited contractions. Higher uninhibited voiding contraction pressures were recorded in hyper-reflexic bladders. Our preliminary results show that it is feasible to perform CUM in children and that it has advantages over standard cystometry in the investigation of children with neuropathic bladder even if it is carried out for short term (6 hours).

Abstract
We have evaluated the expression of different molecular forms of T cell antigen receptor (TcR) in duodenal biopsies of pediatric patients with different forms of villous atrophy: celiac disease, autoimmune enteropathy, intractable diarrhea of unknown origin, and severe cow milk intolerance. A panel of monoclonal antibodies recognizing alpha/beta and gamma/delta TcR (and gamma/delta TcR subsets) was used for immunostaining. The results showed an increase of T cells with gamma/delta-type TcR in celiac patients and also in patients with other forms of villous atrophy with respect to normal controls. Amongst the gamma/delta TcR-positive cells, the subset expressing the molecular product of V delta 1 region was the most represented. The gamma/delta TcR-positive T cells were mainly located within the epithelium: few of them were observed in the lamina propria. On the basis of these results, we hypothesize that the increased homing of gamma/delta TcR-positive T lymphocytes in gut epithelium observed in celiac disease is, at least in part, related to villous atrophy per se.

Abstract
The child's discomfort and the cost of overnight hospitalization are clear disadvantages of prolonged esophageal pH monitoring. The aim of this study was to verify the reliability of short recording versus 24-h testing in a pediatric series with symptoms suggestive of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) disease. A 24-h pH monitoring performed on 160 patients with either gastroenterological symptoms (n = 61), respiratory problems (n = 58), or emesis plus respiratory problems (n = 41) was reviewed. Regardless of clinical presentation, children were also classified according to age: < 12 months (n = 39), 12-71 months (n = 81), and 72-168 months (n = 40). A diurnal fraction of 6 h, including at least 2 h after a meal, was compared to the entire 24-h recording in all groups with respect to the reflux index (RI) (sum of the periods with pH < 3.9 expressed as percentage of time) and reflux/h. RIs of > 10% were considered positive in patients < 1 year of age, whereas RIs of > 5% were considered positive in other age groups. Negative predictive values of the short recording RI ranged from 71 to 90%. Positive predictive values ranged from 50 to 83%; it was unreliable for children < 12 mos (50%) and patients with emesis plus respiratory problems (64%), who were, significantly, the youngest. Reflux/h values were not in agreement for the same groups. Absence of agreement was found if the absolute value of RI was considered.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
19 patients suffering from symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) underwent symptom score analysis, serum PSA level determination, trans-rectal ultrasound, flowmetry and pressure/flow (P/F) studies both before and at the end of a six month treatment period with finasteride, 5 mg a day. After six months of therapy, 89.5% of the pts had a significant symptomatic improvement, according to the decrease in symptom scores. Urodynamic evaluation showed a significant decrease in voiding pressure in 84% of the pts. 5 pts moved from the “obstructed” to the “unobstructed” section of the Abrams-Griffiths nomogram. 15/19 pts had a significant decrease in prostatic weight, as showed by means of ultrasound evaluation. This study confirms the efficacy of finasteride both in the symptomatic relief and in the functional improvement of BPH pts.

Abstract
We report on a case of leprechaunism. In addition to the typical clinical and biochemical features, a bilateral juvenile granulosa cell tumor of the ovaries and cytomegalovirus hepatitis were found. The granulosa cell tumor may result from the mitogenic effect of insulin at high concentration, which acts via a mechanism mediated by insulin-like growth factor I receptors.

Abstract
Thirty-nine children (18 males, 21 females) suffering from intestinal stasis were treated with lactitol or a reference drug (lactulose in crystalline form), according to a balanced randomization, for 15 days. The first group of children included 19 subjects treated with lactitol, the second group included 20 subjects treated with lactulose. The dosages of lactitol and lactulose were, respectively, of 150-350 mg/kg and of 150-300 mg/kg daily per os with a single administration in the morning. During the trial, the children did not take any concomitant drug. For each patient the tested parameters were: number of intestinal evacuations, consistency of stool and adverse reactions (abdominal swelling, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, meteorism) daily; routine laboratory tests at the beginning and at the end of the trials. The results showed that the subjects treated with lactitol have manifested, besides a proved therapeutic efficacy, a better tolerability and compliance than the subjects treated with lactulose.

Abstract
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) has revolutionized treatment of urinary stones, but created new clinical situations and problems in the interpretation of which x-rays and ultrasonography have proved invaluable. This paper defined the role of ultrasound in the follow-up of patients who had undergone ESWL and assessed its advantages and limitations in evaluating the efficacy of this form of therapy and in monitoring the elimination of stone fragments. The utility of ultrasound in the diagnosis and monitoring of the complications due to ESWL has been emphasized. Finally ultrasound is a valid tool when performing those echo-guided procedures which are essential for the treatment of obstructive complications secondary to ESWL.

Abstract
We report an 8-year-old boy with hypertrophic gastropathy (HG) associated with duodenal Giardia lamblia infestation. The follow-up was complicated by the development of gastric polyps at the site of previous biopsies that spontaneously disappeared within 15 months. Despite the histological similarity, the different course between Ménétrier's disease (MD) in adults (chronic, with frequent development of sessile or pedunculate polyps) and HG (uncomplicated and usually spontaneously resolving) suggests a different pathogenesis. Viral (cytomegalovirus) and bacterial (Helicobacter pylori) infections have been described in association with HG and they could play an important pathogenetic role. The term HG better defines the childhood disease in which a conservative management is recommended.

Abstract
Pure autonomic failure (PAF) is a rare syndrome characterized by a primitive failure of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). We have studied a 53-year old woman suffering from PAF by using ANS provocative tests investigating the cardiovascular system (standing up test, controlled ventilation, Valsalva manoeuvre, handgrip test, cold pressor test, mental stress test, plasma catecholamine levels), tests investigating the intrinsic ocular innervation (pupil reactivity), and the bladder function (urodynamic tests). Our results have shown abnormalities of all the studied parameters and they have also confirmed that these patients need a multidisciplinary autonomic evaluation to correctly identify the syndrome.
