Three-year follow-up results of two children born from a transplanted uterus.

Aims: To evaluate the 3-year follow-up results of two children delivered at our institution in 2019 from mothers with a transplanted uterus.

Methods: Observational data on pregnancy outcomes, neonatal course, and growth trajectory in two children born to mothers after uterus transplantation, including 3-year follow-up and neurodevelopmental status assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, third edition (Bayley-III).

Results: Both children were born prematurely via uneventful caesarean sections, to mothers with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome and a transplanted uterus.

Evaluation of the impact of oximeter averaging times on automated FiO control in routine NICU care: a randomized cross-over study.

Objective: Changes in oximeter averaging times have been noted to affect alarm settings. Automated algorithms (A-FiO) assess FiO faster than oximeter averaging, potentially impacting their effectiveness.

Methods: In a single NICU routinely using 15 fabian-PRICO A-FiO systems, neonates were randomly exposed to SpO averaging time settings switched every 12 h among short (2-4 s), medium (10 s), and long (16 s) oximeter averaging times for the entire duration of their A-FiO exposure.

Causes of poor outcome in patients admitted with good-grade subarachnoid haemorrhage.

Background: Surgical risk in patients with unruptured aneurysms is well known. The relative impact of surgery and natural history of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) on patients in good clinical condition (World Federation of Neurological Surgeons [WFNS] grades 1 and 2) is less well quantified. The aim of this study was to determine causes of poor outcome in patients admitted in good grade SAH.

Experience with real time continuous glucose monitoring in stabilising fluctuating glycaemia during intensive care of the preterm infant of a diabetic mother.

Objective: The newborns of diabetic mothers suffer from perinatal complications more frequently than the newborns of healthy women.

Methods: We used for 7 days a real time continuous glucose monitoring system (RT-CGMS) to monitor glucose homeostasis and manage glucose administration in a premature newborn of a diabetic mother.

Results: The boy was born at 35 + 5 gestational weeks with typical signs of diabetic fetopathy.

Clinical results and development of heterotopic ossification in total cervical disc replacement during a 4-year follow-up.

Cervical total disc replacement (CTDR) aims to decrease the incidence of adjacent segment disease through motion preservation in the operated disc space. Ongoing data collection and increasing number of studies describing heterotopic ossification (HO) resulting in decreased mobility of implants, forced us to carefully evaluate our long-term clinical and morphological results of patients with CTDR. We present the first 54 consecutive patients treated with 65 ProdiscC prostheses during a 12-month period (2/2004-3/2005).
