Department of Pulmonology, Erasmus Medical Center, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- Guidelines for treating asthma exacerbations typically recommend bronchodilators and corticosteroids, but antibiotic use is often overlooked despite frequent prescriptions in practice.
- A survey involving 252 healthcare professionals revealed a 19% antibiotic prescription rate for asthma exacerbations, with significant variation among different specialties like pediatrics, pulmonology, general practice, and allergy.
- The study highlights the need for evidence-based guidelines to ensure more rational use of antibiotics in treating asthma exacerbations, especially considering factors like purulent sputum, fever, and comorbidities that influence prescription decisions.
Anterior To Psoas lumbar and lumbosacral combined with posterior reconstruction in Adult Spinal Deformity: A bicentric European study.
Brain Spine
February 2023
Department of Neurosurgery, Hospital Borgo Roma, Verona, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Lateral lumbar fusion through the trans-psoas approach is common for adult deformity reconstruction, but a modified anterior-to-psoas (ATP) method was developed to address its limitations.
- A study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of ATP lumbar and lumbosacral fusion in adults with spinal deformities who underwent both anterior and posterior surgeries.
- Results showed significant improvements in patient-reported outcomes and radiological measures after at least two years, with no major differences in complications between the ATP and traditional approaches, indicating both are safe and effective.
The role of cardiac imaging before and after left atrial appendage standalone thoracoscopic exclusion.
J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown)

Department of Radiology, San Pellegrino Hospital, Castiglione delle Stiviere.
Aims: To assess the characteristics of left atrial appendage (LAA) stump and left atrial (LA) volume after standalone totally thoracoscopic LAA exclusion in 40 patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and contraindications to oral anticoagulation (OAC), using cardiac computed tomography (CCT) and transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE).
Methods: Using CCT and TOE, we evaluated correct AtriClip Pro II positioning, the presence and characteristics of the LAA stump and the postprocedural LA volume, at 3 months' follow-up. Stump depth was measured with both CCT and TOE using a new method, based on left circumflex artery (LCX) course.
Delayed gastric emptying after pancreatoduodenectomy: One complication, two different entities.
Surgery
May 2023
Unit of General and Pancreatic Surgery, Department of Surgery and Oncology, University of Verona Hospital Trust, "Giambattista Rossi" Hospital - Borgo Roma, Verona, Italy. Electronic address: https://twitter.com/SalviaRobi.
Background: Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication after pancreatoduodenectomy associated with a low complication burden but a prolonged hospital stay. The present study aimed to characterize DGE, with a particular focus on its subtypes and related predictors.
Methods: A 2-center retrospective analysis was performed including consecutive pancreatoduodenectomy over 5 years.
Dangerous liaisons: Bacteria, antimicrobial therapies, and allergic diseases.
Allergy

Microbiota composition and associated metabolic activities are essential for the education and development of a healthy immune system. Microbial dysbiosis, caused by risk factors such as diet, birth mode, or early infant antimicrobial therapy, is associated with the inception of allergic diseases. In turn, allergic diseases increase the risk for irrational use of antimicrobial therapy.

Cooley s anaemia or b-thalassaemia or mediterranean anaemia is a blood disease characterised by malformation of the skull and long bones, which confers a typical appearance on the patient. The complete development of facial abnormalities can be prevented by an intensive blood transfusion programme or by bone-marrow-transplantation. At the present time these therapeutic strategies would be able to help these patients grow and develop, live a prolonged life and avoid bad surgical RESULTS.
