Clinical effectiveness of cefiderocol for the treatment of bloodstream infections due to carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii during the COVID-19 era: a single center, observational study. Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis 2024:10.1007/s10096-024-04833-8. [PMID: 38634975 DOI: 10.1007/s10096-024-04833-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We assessed the clinical effectiveness of cefiderocol (CFDC) in comparison with colistin (COL) for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) bloodstream infections (BSI). MATERIALS/METHODS Retrospective cohort study including adults with CRAB-BSI. Outcomes were mortality, clinical cure and adverse events during therapy. The average treatment effect of CFDC compared to COL was weighted with the inverse-probability treatment weight (IPTW). RESULTS Overall, 104 patients were included (50 CFDC, 54 COL), median age 66.5 years, median Charlson Comorbidity Index 5, septic shock in 33.6% of patients. Primary BSI accounted for 43.3% of cases, followed by ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) (26%), catheter-related BSI (20.2%) and hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) (9.6%). Although not significantly, mortality at all time points was lower for CFDC than COL, while clinical cure was higher in CFDC than COL (66% vs. 44.4%, p = 0.027). Adverse events were more frequent in COL than CFDC-group (38.8% vs. 10%, p < 0.0001), primarily attributed to acute kidney injury (AKI) in the COL group. Patients with bacteremic HAP/VAP treated with CFDC had a significant lower 30-d mortality and higher clinical cure than COL (p = 0.008 and p = 0.0008, respectively). Increment of CCI (p = 0.005), ICU (p = 0.025), SARS-CoV2 (p = 0.006) and ECMO (p < 0.0001) were independently associated with 30-d mortality, while receiving CFDC was not associated with survival. CONCLUSIONS CFDC could represent an effective and safe treatment option for CRAB BSI, especially in patients with bacteremic HAP/VAP and frail patients where the risk of acute renal failure during therapy should be avoided.

Ceftazidime/avibactam-resistant meropenem-susceptible KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae: analysis of cases and evaluation of in-vitro activity of fosfomycin-containing combinations. J Glob Antimicrob Resist 2023:S2213-7165(23)00058-9. [PMID: 37086891 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgar.2023.03.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 03/18/2023] [Accepted: 03/26/2023] [Indexed: 04/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known regarding outcomes and optimal therapeutic regimens of infections caused by KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) and susceptible to meropenem (MEM). Although in-vitro susceptible to MEM, the possibility of developing MEM resistance overtime is a concern. We described the clinical characteristics of patients with colonization/infection due to KPC-variant with a focus on the in-vitro activity of fosfomycin (FOS)-containing combinations. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients with colonization/infection due to KPC-variant were included. FOS susceptibility was performed by agar dilution method. Synergistic activity of FOS-based combinations was evaluated by gradient strip-agar diffusion method. The emergence of in-vitro MEM resistance was also tested. RESULTS Eleven patients were included, 8 with infection [4 ventilator-associated pneumonia, 4 bloodstream infections], 3 with colonization. A previous therapy with CZA was administered to all the patients (mean cumulative duration 23 days). All subjects with infection received meropenem, in monotherapy (n=4) or with amikacin (n=2) or fosfomycin (n=2) and achieved clinical cure. A new CZA-susceptible and MEM-resistant KPC-Kp strain was subsequently isolated in 3 patients (27.3%). Meropenem/vaborbactam (MVB) showed high in-vitro activity, while FOS+MEM combination was synergistic in 40% of cases. In-vitro resistance to MEM was observed, with maintenance of CZA resistance. DISCUSSION Detection of KPC-variant may occur within the same patient, especially if CZA has been previously administered. Although clinical success has been obtained with carbapenems, the emergence of MEM resistance is a concern. Fosfomycin plus meropenem is synergistic and may represent a valuable combination option for KPC-variant, while MVB may be considered in monotherapy. IMPORTANCE The detection of KPC-variants in an endemic setting for KPC-Kp represents a worryingly emerging condition. The optimal therapeutic approach is still unknown and the development of meropenem resistance is a concern, which may finally lead to a therapeutic failure in the clinical practice. In these cases, the addition of fosfomycin to meropenem or a more potent antibiotic such as meropenem/vaborbactam may represent valuable therapeutic options.

Disseminated fungal infection due to Saprochaete clavata in a kidney transplant recipient. J Mycol Med 2019; 29:278-281. [PMID: 31202517 DOI: 10.1016/j.mycmed.2019.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2019] [Revised: 04/24/2019] [Accepted: 06/04/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
Saprochaete clavata and Saprochaete capitata are closely related fungal species (family Dipodascaceae, order Saccharomycetales) that are rarely involved in the etiology of systemic infections in humans. In recent years, these yeasts are emerging as cause of life-threatening infections in patients with severe neutropenia and haematological malignancies. Infections by these fungi have been reported mostly from Mediterranean countries. To the best of our knowledge, only 2 cases of infection due to S. capitata have been reported in solid organ transplant recipients and none due to S. clavata. Herein we report a fatal case of S. clavata disseminated infection occurring in a patient with recent kidney transplantation and severe neutropenia. Patient was receiving antifungal echinocandin prophylaxis and the yeast was isolated from the blood and multiple non contiguous sites. Saprochaete spp. should be considered in the differential diagnosis of invasive mycoses in transplant recipients, especially if they are neutropenic and living or travelling in Mediterranean countries.

Abstract
Plasma concentration of beta-thromboglobulin (beta-TG) and platelet factor 4 (PF4) were measured by radioimmunoassay in 45 patients with benign and malignant ovarian diseases. All patients with ovarian carcinoma showed increased beta-TG and PF4 levels. Among benign ovarian diseases the patients with serous cystadenoma more frequently showed signs of platelet activation, whereas those with endometriotic cyst and mucinous cystadenoma generally had normal beta-TG and PF4 values. These results indicate that an increased platelet activation is consistently associated with malignant tumors of the ovary, whereas benign tumors show a different capacity to induce platelet activation.

Abstract
Puccinia sorghi Schwein., the causal agent of maize common rust, is an endemic disease in the Argentine Corn Belt region. Virulence surveys of the pathogen population within the region have not been performed; thus, the understanding of the pathogen population is low and it is difficult to deploy resistance genes that could be effective at controlling the disease. In total, 58 single-uredinial isolates derived from infected maize leaves collected in different locations throughout the Argentine Corn Belt region during 2010 to 2012 were tested on a set of 25 maize lines carrying different Rp genes. Maize lines Rp3-A and PIO19802 showed the lowest virulence frequencies (3.4 and 1.7%, respectively) for all tested isolates. Moreover, the combination in a single genotype of the resistance genes carried by lines Rp3-A and PIO19802 or either of these lines combined with the resistance genes from PIO12345 would confer resistance to all isolates tested. Virulent isolates on maize lines Rp-G, Rp1-K, and Rp-GI were most frequent in 2012. Twenty-four virulence phenotypes were identified, with phenotypes TCCG (17.2%), TTBB (15.5%), and TCFG (10.3%) being the most common throughout the region. Adult plant resistance associated with hypersensitive response was identified at vegetative stage 6 in maize lines PIO68752, PIO28427, and PIO36420.

Muscular forearm activation in hand-grip tasks with superimposition of mechanical vibrations. J Electromyogr Kinesiol 2015; 26:143-8. [PMID: 26597087 DOI: 10.1016/j.jelekin.2015.10.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2015] [Revised: 09/09/2015] [Accepted: 10/27/2015] [Indexed: 10/22/2022] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the muscular activation of the forearm, with or without vibration stimuli at different frequencies while performing a grip tasks of 45s at various level of exerted force. In 16 individuals, 9 females and 7 males, the surface electromyogram (EMG) of extensor carpi radialis longus and the flexor carpi ulnari muscles were assessed. At a short latency from onset EMG, RMS and the level of MU synchronization were assessed to evaluate the muscular adaptations. Whilst a trend of decay of EMG Median frequency (MDFd) was employed as an index of muscular fatigue. Muscular tasks consists of the grip of an instrumented handle at a force level of 20%, 30%, 40%, 60% of the maximum voluntary force. Vibration was supplied by a shaker to the hand in mono-frequential waves at 20, 30, 33 and 40Hz. In relation to EMG, RMS and MU synchronization, the muscular activation does not seem to change with the superimposition of the mechanical vibrations, on the contrary a lower MDFd was observed at 33Hz than in absence of vibration. This suggests an early muscular fatigue induced by vibration due to the fact that 33Hz is a resonance frequency for the hand-arm system.

Abstract
Fine mapping permits the precise positioning of genes within chromosomes, prerequisite for positional cloning that will allow its rational use and the study of the underlying molecular action mechanism. Three leaf rust resistance genes were identified in the durable leaf rust resistant Argentinean wheat variety Sinvalocho MA: the seedling resistance gene Lr3 on distal 6BL and two adult plant resistance genes, LrSV1 and LrSV2, on chromosomes 2DS and 3BS, respectively. To develop a high-resolution genetic map for LrSV2, 10 markers were genotyped on 343 F2 individuals from a cross between Sinvalocho MA and Gama6. The closest co-dominant markers on both sides of the gene (3 microsatellites and 2 STMs) were analyzed on 965 additional F2s from the same cross. Microsatellite marker cfb5010 cosegregated with LrSV2 whereas flanking markers were found at 1 cM distal and at 0.3 cM proximal to the gene. SSR markers designed from the sequences of cv Chinese Spring BAC clones spanning the LrSV2 genetic interval were tested on the recombinants, allowing the identification of microsatellite swm13 at 0.15 cM distal to LrSV2. This delimited an interval of 0.45 cM around the gene flanked by the SSR markers swm13 and gwm533 at the subtelomeric end of chromosome 3BS.

Abstract
Fourteen microsatellite markers were isolated from the giant red shrimp Aristaeomorpha foliacea (Risso, 1827) using the FIASCO protocol (fast isolation by AFLP of sequences containing repeats). Polymorphism was assessed in 30 individuals from two localities of the western Mediterranean basin (N = 20 from Sardinia and N = 10 from Sicily); nine loci showed polymorphism with 2 to 19 alleles per locus (average: 8.9). Polymorphic information content ranged from 0.36 to 0.91, and the observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.50 to 0.97 and from 0.47 to 0.93, respectively. Two loci showed significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and evidence of linkage disequilibrium was found for only one locus pair. These loci are the first to be characterized in A. foliacea and could be effective tools for the investigation of genetic diversity, population structure, and demographic connectivity, useful information for the management of this important commercial resource.

Genetic analysis of leaf rust resistance genes and associated markers in the durable resistant wheat cultivar Sinvalocho MA. TAG. THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS.

Abstract
In the cross of the durable leaf rust resistant wheat Sinvalocho MA and the susceptible line Gama6, four specific genes were identified: the seedling resistance gene Lr3, the adult plant resistance (APR) genes LrSV1 and LrSV2 coming from Sinvalocho MA, and the seedling resistance gene LrG6 coming from Gama6. Lr3 was previously mapped on 6BL in the same cross. LrSV1 was mapped on chromosome 2DS where resistance genes Lr22a and Lr22b have been reported. Results from rust reaction have shown that LrSV1 from Sinvalocho is not the same allele as Lr22b and an allelism test with Lr22a showed that they could be alleles or closely linked genes. LrSV1 was mapped in an 8.5-cM interval delimited by markers gwm296 distal and gwm261 proximal. Adult gene LrSV2 was mapped on chromosome 3BS, cosegregating with gwm533 in a 7.2-cM interval encompassed by markers gwm389 and gwm493, where other disease resistance genes are located, such as seedling gene Lr27 for leaf rust, Sr2 for stem rust, QTL Qfhs.ndsu-3BS for resistance to Fusarium gramineum and wheat powdery mildew resistance. The gene LrG6 was mapped on chromosome 2BL, with the closest marker gwm382 at 0.6 cM. Lines carrying LrSV1, LrSV2 and LrG6 tested under field natural infection conditions, showed low disease infection type and severity, suggesting that this kind of resistance can be explained by additive effects of APR and seedling resistance genes. The identification of new sources of resistance from South American land races and old varieties, supported by modern DNA technology, contributes to sustainability of agriculture through plant breeding.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Moxifloxacin has been used in the first-line treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection. The optimal dosage and duration have not been assessed. AIM To evaluate the effectiveness of moxifloxacin, amoxicillin and esomeprazole in four regimens, in previously untreated patients infected by H. pylori. METHODS AND PATIENTS Patients were randomly assigned to: esomeprazole 20 mg b.i.d., amoxicillin 1g b.i.d., and one of each of the four following dosages of moxifloxacin: moxifloxacin 400 mg b.i.d. for 10 days (EAM800x10), moxifloxacin 400 mg b.i.d. for 7 days (EAM800x7), moxifloxacin 400 mg b.i.d. for 5 days (EAM800x5), moxifloxacin 400 mg o.i.d. for 10 days (EAM400x10). Eradication was assessed by the Urea Breath Test (UBT) 2 months following the end of therapy. RESULTS Ninety-four, 102, 92 and 105 patients were recruited in EAM800x10, EAM800x7, EAM800x5, and EAM400x10 respectively. The eradication rate was for Intention-To-Treat (ITT) and Per Protocol (PP) analyses: EAM800x10 group ITT: 90.4%, PP: 94.4%; EAM800x7 group ITT: 80.3%, PP: 86.3%; EAM800x5 group ITT: 71.4%, PP: 75.2%; EAM400x10 group ITT: 80.0%, PP 84.8%. A statistically significant difference was reached between EAM800x10 vs. EAM800x7 (ITT and PP: P<0.05), and between EAM800x10 vs. EAM800x5 (ITT and PP: P<0.01) and vs. EAM400x10 (ITT: P<0.05; PP: P<0.04). Thirty patients treated unsuccessfully with EAM800x5 and EAM400x10 were re-treated with EAM800x10 with an eradication rate of 86.7% (ITT) and 92.2% (PP). Nineteen patients with positive UBT after EAM800x10 and EAM800x7 underwent a second-line rifabutin-based therapy with an eradication rate of 84.2% (ITT and PP). CONCLUSION A triple therapy with 800 mg of moxifloxacin a day for 10 days is more effective than the same treatment for 5 or 7 days and a treatment with 400mg of moxifloxacin a day for 10 days for the first-line eradication of H. pylori infection. The high cost of moxifloxacin-based treatment however, may limit its wide use as first-line treatment of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Neonatal persistent pulmonary hypertension (NPPH) is characterised by persistently high pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). Sildenafil has recently been suggested as an alternative to or an associative therapy with inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) to reduce mortality (10-40%) and morbidity (major neurologic disabilities among surviving newborns remains approximately 15-60%). The objective is to report three cases of NPPH treated with sildenafil in association of iNO. CASE REPORTS Echocardiography examination of three newborn babies with respiratory distress syndrome and a gestational age between 33 and 39 weeks revealed pulmonary hypertension following early onset sepsis. Synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) and surfactant therapy had no effect on oxygen saturation (SatO2) and oxygen alveolar-arterial difference (AaDO2). High frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) and iNO therapy proved to be equally ineffective. Oral sildenafil was administered at 2 mg/Kg/6 hs. A gradual but significant improvement in oxygenation was achieved and a reduction in AaDO2 along with oxygenation index (OI) and pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) was observed in the first 6-10 hrs after administration of sildenafil. The therapy was maintained for 36-48 hrs with total success. CONCLUSIONS A beneficial pulmonary vasodilator effect was obtained in treating NPPH with sildenafil where conventional methods had failed. Sildenafil used in association with iNO reduces the duration of treatment, the quantity of iNO normally required and the associated toxic effects. A multicentric, randomized trial could be useful in demonstrating the safety, efficacy, doses and forms of administration of sildenafil.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although visceral hypersensitivity is a common feature among patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), studies on somatic sensitivity have given controversial results. AIM To assess visceral sensitivity in response to isotonic rectal distensions and somatic sensitivity at different layers of the body wall (skin, subcutis, and muscle) in patients with IBS and fibromyalgia (FM), within and outside the area of abdominal pain referral. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied 10 patients with IBS, 5 patients with FM, 9 patients with IBS+FM, and 9 healthy controls. Rectal distensions were performed by increasing tension at 4 g steps up to 64 g or discomfort. Pain thresholds to electrical stimulation were measured within and outside the areas of abdominal pain referral. RESULTS Patients with IBS and IBS+FM demonstrated rectal hypersensitivity in comparison to controls. The threshold of discomfort was 44 +/- 5 g in IBS and 36 +/- 5 in IBS+FM patients, while patients with FM and healthy controls tolerated all distensions without discomfort. In the areas of pain referral, pain thresholds of all three tissues of the body wall were lower than normal in all patients groups (p < 0.001). In control areas, the pain thresholds were normal in skin, and lower than normal in subcutis and muscle in IBS (p < 0.001). FM and IBS+FM demonstrated somatic hypersensitivity at all sites (p < 0.001 vs healthy). CONCLUSION Our observations seem to indicate that, although sharing a common hypersensitivity background, multiple mechanisms may modulate perceptual somatic and visceral responses in patients with IBS and FM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited information exists regarding risk factors for reinfection after cure of Helicobacter pylori infection. AIM To determine the 2-year reinfection rate of H. pylori in a cohort of urban Alaska Natives. METHODS Participants over 18 years of age undergoing oesophagogastroduodenoscopy had (13)C urea breath test, culture, CLOtest and histology performed. Those diagnosed with H. pylori who tested urea breath test-negative at 8 weeks after treatment were followed prospectively at 4 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years. Subjects experiencing H. pylori reinfection as defined by a positive urea breath test were compared with those who did not become reinfected using univariable and multivariable analysis. Risk of reinfection over time was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Helicobacter pylori reinfection occurred in 14 of 98 subjects successfully treated. The cumulative reinfection rate was 5.1% (95% CI: 0.7%-9.5%) at 4 months, 7.2% (2.0-12.3%) at 6 months, 10.3% (4.2-16.3%) at 1-year and 14.5% (7.5-21.6%) at 2 years. In multivariable analysis, a history of previous peptic ulcer disease or presence of ulcer at time of study oesophagogastroduodenoscopy were the only risk factors associated with reinfection (P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Based on the findings from our study, subjects with a history of or current peptic ulcer disease should be followed, after successful treatment for H. pylori, with periodic urea breath test to detect reinfection, as reinfection would put them at high risk for ulcer recurrence.

Abstract
The Argentinian wheat cultivar Sinvalocho MA carries the Lr3 gene for leaf rust resistance on distal chromosome 6BL. In this cultivar, 33 spontaneous susceptible lines were isolated and cytogenetically characterized by C-banding. The analysis revealed deletions on chromosome 6BL in most lines. One line was nulli-6B, two lines were ditelo 6BS, two, three, and ten lines had long terminal deletions of 40, 30, and 20%, respectively, three lines showed very small terminal deletions, and one line had an intercalary deletion of 11%. Physical mapping of 55 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers detected differences between deletions and led to the division of 6BL into seven bins delimited by deletion breakpoints. The most distal bin, with a length smaller than 5% of 6BL, contained 22 AFLP markers and the Lr3 gene. Polymorphism for nine AFLPs between Sinvalocho MA and the rust leaf susceptible cultivar Gamma 6 was used to construct a linkage map of Lr3. This gene is at a genetic distance of 0.9 cM from a group of seven closely linked AFLPs. The location of the gene in a high recombinogenic region indicated a physical distance of approximately 1 Mb to the markers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Visceral hypersensitivity is common in Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) patients, and symptoms exacerbate postprandially. Yet the effects of nutrients on visceral sensitivity and symptoms in these patients have not been fully explored. AIMS To evaluate the differences of visceral sensitivity and symptoms in healthy subjects and IBS patients during fasting and intraduodenal lipids infusion. METHODS Graded rectal distensions at fixed tension levels were performed in 16 IBS patients (8 IBS-C and 8 IBS-D) and 6 healthy subjects before and during intraduodenal lipids infusion at 0.5 kcal/min. Tension levels were increased in 4 gr increments up to 64 gr or discomfort during both conditions. At each step, perception and symptoms were measured by means of a validated questionnaire. RESULTS In basal conditions, perception thresholds in IBS patients and health were, respectively, 8 +/- 2 gr versus 32 +/- 9 gr (p < 0.001) with no changes during lipids. Intraduodenal lipids infusion significantly lowered threshold of discomfort in IBS patients in comparison to fasting (24 +/- 6 gr vs 34 +/- 4 gr; p < 0.05), while health tolerated all distension without discomfort. No differences of compliance, perception, or discomfort were observed between the two subgroups of patients at each tension step. The predominant symptom elicited in patients with IBS-C was abdominal pain (54%), while patients with IBS-D exhibited urgency (63%, p < 0.005); this pattern was maintained during lipids. CONCLUSIONS Intraduodenal lipids increase visceral sensitivity in both IBS-C and IBS-D; symptoms specificity in response to rectal distension is maintained in the postprandial period. Lipids may be responsible for the postprandial symptoms exacerbation in IBS.

Abstract
Molecular markers on wheat chromosome 6BL were isolated using mRNA differential display. Two wheat isolines inoculated with Puccinia recondita were analysed: Sinvalocho MA line carrying the Lr3 gene for leaf rust resistance on distal chromosome 6BL, and a rust-susceptible derivative of the Sinvalocho MA line with a deletion at the distal end of chromosome 6BL. Comparison of mRNA fingerprinting profiles, obtained from control and rust-inoculated plants, let to the isolation of 34 differentially displayed cDNAs. All these genes, except TaRr16, were up-regulated in the rust-inoculated resistant line. TaRr16 has constitutive expression in the rust-resistant line while no expression was detected in the rust-susceptible line. A number of those cDNAs revealed homology to genes previously identified in other plant-pathogen interactions. Two out of the 34 cDNAs, mapped in the distal part of chromosome 6BL and TaRr16, was genetically linked to the Lr3 gene. DNA sequence differences and differential expression between non-allelic copies of TaRr16, are also reported.

Abstract
The benefits of screening hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive carriers for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in terms of long-term survival have not been established. We conducted a prospective 16-year, population-based cohort study to determine the impact of screening for HCC in 1,487 HBsAg-positive Alaska native carriers with alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) determinations every 6 months. Men and nonpregnant women with an elevated AFP level were evaluated for the presence of HCC by ultrasound (US) examination. The long-term survival rate for patients whose HCC was detected by the screening program was compared with a historical control group of Alaska native patients with HCC from the same population who were clinically diagnosed with HCC between 1969 and October 1982, through a National Cancer Institute-sponsored Cancer Registry. Between October 1982 and December 1998, 26,752 AFP determinations in HBsAg carriers were performed. One or more AFP elevations were found in 61 men and 39 nonpregnant women. HCC was diagnosed in 32 patients (24 men and 8 women). HCC tumors less than 6 cm were found in 23 patients; 22 patients had resections, and 1 patient refused a resection. Compared with 12 patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related HCC diagnosed from 1969 to October 1982, before this program, the 5- and 10-year survival rate for the 32 patients with HCC were 42% (P =.008) and 30% (P =.07), respectively. Five- and 10-year tumor-free survival rates for carriers who had a normal AFP level on initial screening and subsequently developed HCC were 29% (P =.004) and 24% (P =.024), respectively. Screening of HBsAg carriers with semiannual AFP was effective in detecting most HCC tumors at a resectable stage and significantly prolonged survival rates when compared with historical controls in this population.

Abstract
The Lr3 gene for resistance to race 66 of Puccinia recondita present in hexaploid wheat cv. Sinvalocho MA was mapped on chromosome 6B, using intervarietal polymorphic RFLP loci and the Amp-B1 isozyme gene as a centromere marker. The RFLP markers were located mainly in two subregions of chromosome 6BL. Six RFLP loci clustered in the centromeric region and one other, Xmwg798, cosegregated with the Lr3 gene. C-banding analysis of the leaf rust resistant standard 'Sinvalocho MA' line and three naturally occurring susceptible lines of 'Sinvalocho MA' revealed a terminal deletion on 6BL that covered 20% of its length in one susceptible line. Because Xmwg798 was missing in this line, both Xmwg798 and Lr3 were allocated to the deleted segment. Distorted segregations were observed for the proximal markers, suggesting a selection against gametes carrying the centromeric region of 'Sinvalocho MA'.Key words: wheat, RFLP, Lr3 gene, chromosome 6B, C-banding.

Abstract
Septic arthritis is a serious pyogenic infection that may lead to permanent orthopedic sequelae. Infants represent the most of the cases. It usually develops as a result of bacterial seeding into the capillary-rich synovium in the course of a bacteremic episode. Etiology changes according to different ages; in children after the neonatal period but younger than 24 months, Haemophilus influenzae is the most frequent causative organism. A case of sepsis due to Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) with septic arthritis in a patient 3 months old, is reported. The child was admitted to the hospital with a very high temperature (39 degrees C) for five days. His right wrist and ankle appeared swelling and hyperemic. He was affected by congenital cardiopathy from birth. He was not immunizated against Hib. The blood colture was positive for Hib. The leukocyte count was 21,400 cell/mm3 with 55% of polymorphonuclear cells. During the second day of recovery, the patient was transfused, because of the very low value of hemoglobin (5.2 g/dl). The child was treated with netilmycina and ceftriaxone for 15 days. The temperature fell in two days. The articular pathology resolved in nearly ten days. The case reported confirms the importance of septic arthritis as a pathology that necessarily requires an early diagnosis and treatment. The Haemophilus influenzae vaccine, is recommended especially in immunocompromised or cardiopathic subjects and before the age of 2 years.

Abstract
A female patient developed severe detrusor instability years after a diagnosis of Sjogren syndrome. A common etiology could be possible if an association with viral demyelinization in Sjogren patients is confirmed. Vaginal Sicca syndrome was present and responded to a topical androgen-oestriol association with definite cytologic improvement. Anticholinergics were tolerated and moderately effective. Low initial dose were slowly increased (over three months) to avoid excessive mouth dryness and avoid gastrooesophageal symptoms.

Abstract
Transvaginal sonography can show partial urinary penetration in the urethra in patients with no clinical incontinence. The Fluid Bridge Test-Pressure urodynamically demonstrates the same phenomenon. We compared these two technics in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). 49 patients underwent urodynamic testing and transvaginal sonography; 18 had SUI, 20 were asymptomatic postoperatively (Burch procedure) and 11 were normal controls. Urodynamics consisted of filling cystometry with saline (infusion speed: ml 70/min) using transurethral Foley catheter (n degree 14 Fr), and a profilometric-pressure Bard catheter (10 Fr); micturitional cystometry; uroflowmetry; clino- and orthostatic urethral pressure profile (UPP) (extraction speed: cm 0.5-1/sec; infusion speed: cm 1.2/min); sphincteric electromyography (EMG); FBT-P with the Bard catheter only. During extraction patients were requested to cough (stress condition). If the urethra is incompetent pressure is transmitted to the water column connected to the pressure transducer, and a "spike" is observed. A competent urethra shows little pressure variation. Ultrasound (US) equipment consisted in a General Electric (RT 3600) sonograph with an electronic transvaginal probe (7.5 MHz) inserted in a gel-lubricated condom. The probe was positioned in the vaginal vestibule in direct proximity to the urethra. Axial and coronal scannings were performed. Echo-imagings were submitted to "post-processing" on US recording equipment. Fluid penetration in the urethra was evident if iperchogenic "turbulence" was observed on playback of the dynamic sonogram on a videocassette recorder (VCR) connected to the sonograph. The SUI group shows leakage of water under stress without detrusorial activity and dynamic UPP with reduced transmission of abdominal pressure on the urethra.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The International Continence Society does not offer secure guidelines for the diagnosis of micturitional obstruction. The problem has been extensively addressed in relation to male voiding difficulties. Little is known on the subject in female patients. Two criteria for the diagnosis of obstructed micturition are in clinical use. The Sussett formula divides the maximum micturitional pressure by the square of the corresponding maximum urinary flow rate. Two cutoffs, corresponding approximately to the 90th and 95th centiles can be used (0.15, and 0.5). A more complex graphic nomogram developed by Schafer plots maximum flow versus maximum detrusor pressure, identifying obstruction and detrusor dysfunction simultaneously according to the author. We feel that these methods, extensively tested on a male population, can both be used on a female population. We noticed that in some instances the results were different. 469 women referred for micturitional disturbances underwent pressure/flow studies. 62 (13.2%) were obstructed according to the Schafer nomogram, 103 (21.9%) and 31 (6.6%) respectively using the Sussett mathematical formula using two different cutoffs (0.15 and 0.5). The two methods identify the same patients only if micturitional pressures are normal (40 to 60 cmH2O) to high (over 60 cmH2O) and the Sussett formula is used with a higher (95th centile) cutoff. This means that both methods are clearly insufficient in the diagnosis of obstruction if detrusor function is impaired. This can happen in case of chronic retention due to detrusor failure after a long-standing obstruction or for primary failures due to central nervous system lesions. Extreme care should be exercised if pressure-flow studies indicate obstruction at low micturitional pressures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Five cases of acute urinary obstruction during pregnancy are presented. A complete urodynamic workup, including pressure-flow studies showed high micturitional pressures with little or no flow, with at least 60% residual urine. Filling cystometry, urethral profilometry (static and dynamic), pelvic electromyography were normal. Two cases were due to uterine pelvic incarceration. One of these cases happened very early during pregnancy, because of extensive fibroids. Any cause of abnormal uterine enlargement can lead to early obstruction. Three cases were associated with paraurethral abscess (skenitis in 2 cases, urethral diverticulum in 1). Manual reduction in case of pelvic incarceration or surgical draining and antibiotic therapy in case of abscess were effective in all cases. Immediate catheterization is possible and indicated as soon as urinary obstruction is diagnosed. This prevents neuromuscular dysfunction due to excessive bladder distention. The transurethral catheter might work as a stent, and periurethral surgical drainage is probably safer with a catheter in place. Suprapubic catheterization is probably less useful in this respect. An indwelling catheter removes any urgency in treatment. Voiding difficulties can persist for some days after surgical treatment. Urodynamic testing performed in all indicated acute micturitional obstruction. Anyway, it added little to the clinical understanding of the problem, which was obvious, and the Authors feel that extensive urodynamic testing should be limited to cases presenting with a complex preexisting dysfunction or performed after treatment if symptoms do not disappear completely. All clinically doubtful cases should likewise be investigated. If periurethral abscess or incarceration are evident, simple evaluation of residual urine percentage should be sufficient in establishing the diagnosis.

Abstract
Thirty-four postmenopausal stress incontinence patients were divided in two groups: 17 were treated with 0.5 mg oestriol vaginal cream for 90 days, 17 controls were treated with moisturizing cream. All had low urethral pressures and dystrophy. Treated patients showed improvement of maximum urethral pressure, urethral closure pressure, and volume at first sensation of fullness. Dystrophy was cured in most patients; in 17% incontinence was cured and in 41% subjectively improved.

Abstract
Trisomics for chromosomes 1A and 6B of wheat backcrossed to euploids showed progeny with unexpected segregation frequencies (cytological and genetical) that can be attributed to preferential pairing between homologues. Recombination frequency between the centromere and a gene for mildew reaction of chromosome 1A showed an increase from the first to the second backcross that could be attributed to a positive correlation between homozygosity and the degree of pairing between homologous chromosomes. The use of wheat trisomics for genetic analysis is also discussed.Key words: preferential pairing, trisomic segregation, wheat cytogenetics, recombination frequency, pathogen reaction.
