Fetal Ovarian Cysts: Prenatal Diagnosis Using Ultrasound and MRI, Management and Postnatal Outcome-Our Centers Experience.

The present study provides our clinical experience regarding the imaging diagnosis, management and postnatal outcome of neonates prenatally suspected of having developed ovarian cysts. This multicenter observational study included patients diagnosed prenatally with fetal ovarian cysts and follow-up in the postnatal period. Descriptive statistics were used to render the information regarding the prenatal imaging aspect of the fetal pelvic masses using ultrasound and/or MRI, prenatal surveillance and postnatal neonate's immediate outcome, indications leading to surgery and pathologic aspect.

Feasibility and clinical utility of a transdiagnostic Internet-delivered rational emotive and behavioral intervention for adolescents with anxiety and depressive disorders.

Background: Transdiagnostic interventions delivered for children and adolescents show promising results. In order to increase access to treatment, recent developments in technology have led to alternatives to face-to-face interventions. Transdiagnostic Internet-delivered interventions can be effective for adult anxiety and depressive disorders, but research is more limited regarding the efficacy of such treatments for young populations diagnosed with anxiety and or depressive disorders.

Postpartum assessment of fetal inflammatory response syndrome in a preterm population with premature rupture of membranes: A Romanian study.

Fetal inflammatory response syndrome is associated with increased neonatal morbidity and mortality. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the dynamics of the plasmatic value of pro-inflammatory cytokines: tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and neutrophil activating peptide 78 (ENA-78) and the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in the first and third day of life and the correlation with neonatal morbidities and mortality. The current research was designed as a prospective case control study included 80 neonates hospitalized at the 3rd level Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), 1st Gynecology Clinic, County Emergency Hospital, Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

Fatal Whipple's disease with severe mental manifestations on relapse - case report and brief advances update.

We present the case of a 51-year-old male admitted for asthenia, fatigability, nausea, inappetence, weight loss, watery diarrhea, lower limb paresthesia and diagnosed after further investigations with Whipple's disease (WD). The evolution was favorable under antibiotic therapy but after a period of time the patient was no longer compliant to the treatment and psychotic manifestations, general status alteration and finally the decease occurred. WD is a condition caused by Tropheryma whipplei (TW) bacterium in people with altered macrophage degrading capacity and it is lethal without early treatment.

Cardiac left heart morphology and function in newborns with intrauterine growth restriction: relevance for long-term assessment.

Aim: To asses the cardiac morphology and functional changes specific for newborns from intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) pregnancies.

Material And Method: A cohort of IUGR infants were evaluated by serial echocardiographies at delivery and at the first and six months follow-ups. IUGR newborn delivery status was compared to that of newborns in the control group according to gestational age (AGA).
