Prevention of obesity in toddlers (PROBIT): a randomised clinical trial of responsive feeding promotion from birth to 24 months.

Introduction: The aims of the PROBIT trial (clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03131284) were to prevent overweight or obesity occurring at two years of life, and improve feeding patterns during infancy.

Methods: The trial compared 252 northern Italian newborns whose paediatricians offered their parents an educational programme from the child's birth to the age of two years (intervention arm) with 216 newborns whose parents did not undergo the programme (control arm).

Hydatid cyst of the liver: spontaneous rupture with peritoneal and thoracic involvement. Report of a case.

Hydatidosis due to Echinococcus granulosus is an endemic parasitic disease in Mediterranean countries. The most frequent anatomical locations are the liver and lung and the most significant complication of liver hydatidosis is rupture into the biliary tract. Spontaneous rupture into the free peritoneal cavity associated with thoracic involvement is an unusual complication accompanied by a high mortality rate.

Conservative management of a spleen trauma using radiofrequency.

Aim Of The Study: Conservative operative management of a splenic injury has become more and more employed in order to preserve the immune function of the organ.

Case Report: A case of a rupture of the spleen successfully treated with the use of a radiofrequency thermal energy generator is eported. The parenchymal tear was coagulated by a one cooled tip needle electrode.

Radiofrequency-assisted liver resection.

Radiofrequency (RF)-assisted thermal ablation has been used with increasing frequency for unresectable hepatic tumors. This new approach employs RF energy to coagulate the liver at the hepatic resection line after which hepatic resection is performed with the use of a common scalpel. This procedure was used in three patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and in five patients with colorectal metastasis to the liver.

Prognostic evaluation of stage B colon cancer patients is improved by an adequate lymphadenectomy: results of a secondary analysis of a large scale adjuvant trial.

Objective: To determine if the extent of lymphadenectomy (number of recovered lymph nodes) was associated with long-term outcome in patients operated on for stage B and C colon cancer.

Summary Background Data: Lymphatic spreading is the main prognostic indicator in colon cancer patients, although the optimal extent of lymphadenectomy and its prognostic impact are still unknown.

Methods: In 3,648 patients (median follow-up 3.
