Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the utility of sentinel lymph node (SLN) evaluation during hysterectomy for endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) in a community hospital setting and identify descriptive trends among pathology reports from those diagnosed with endometrial cancer (EC). METHODS We reviewed patients who underwent hysterectomy from January 2015 to July 2022 for a pathologically confirmed diagnosis of EIN obtained by endometrial biopsy (EMB) or dilation and curettage. Data was obtained via detailed chart review. Statistical testing was utilized for between-group comparisons and multivariate logistic regression modeling. RESULTS Of the 177 patients with EIN who underwent hysterectomy during the study period, 105 (59.3%) had a final diagnosis of EC. At least stage IB disease was found in 29 of these patients who then underwent adjuvant therapy. Pathology report descriptors suspicious for cancer and initial specimen type obtained by EMB were independently and significantly associated with increased odds of EC diagnosis (aOR 8.192, p < 0.001;3.746, p < 0.001, respectively). Operative times were not increased by performance of SLN sampling while frozen specimen evaluation added an average of 28 min to procedure length. Short-term surgical outcomes were also similar between groups. CONCLUSION Patients treated for EIN at community-based institutions might be more likely to upstage preoperative EIN diagnoses and have an increased risk of later stage disease than previous research suggests. Given no surgical time or short-term outcome differences, SLN evaluation should be more strongly considered in this practice setting, especially for patients diagnosed by EMB or with pathology reports indicating suspicion for EC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Heart failure (HF) is among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Several conditions trigger left ventricular chronic pressure or volume overload, hypertrophy, systolic and diastolic dysfunction, leading to cardiac remodeling and a rapid progression toward HF. Therapeutic interventions elicit reverse remodeling (RR), a highly variable myocardial response that ranges from none to total ventricular structural/functional recovery. However, HF patients present several comorbidities and medications that mask a comprehensive molecular knowledge of RR and hinder the identification of potential biomarkers of its progression or prognosis. Therefore, instead of using this heterogeneous population or even animal models to understand myocardial remodeling, we propose studying pregnancy-induced cardiovascular remodeling and postpartum-induced RR. OBJECTIVES To assess cardiovascular functional and structural adaptations during pregnancy and in postpartum, characterizing the associated molecular changes; as well as to explore the impact of hypertension, obesity and diabetes on these processes. METHODS We will perform echocardiography and assess endothelial function and arterial stiffness (EndoPAT® and pulse wave velocity, respectively) and assess potential markers of remodeling and RR using plasma and urine samples from pregnant women. To translate to a HF context, we will determine the impact of risk factors (hypertension, obesity and diabetes) by studying subgroups of pregnant women with these comorbidities. RESULTS Not applicable Conclusion: We are convinced that understanding the impact of these comorbidities in such a homogeneous population, such as pregnant women, provides a valuable model to unveil the most relevant pathologic and often masked signaling pathways underlying cardiac remodeling and incomplete RR in a heterogeneous population, such as HF patients. Moreover, we expect to identify potential novel biomarkers of RR progression/prognosis more easily.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is an increasingly used non-invasive tool to evaluate Crohn's disease (CD) activity. Recently, two IUS scores that evaluate inflammatory activity have emerged: the Simple Ultrasound Activity Score for CD (SUS-CD) and the International Bowel Ultrasound Segmental Activity Score (IBUS-SAS). We aimed to compare the accuracy of SUS-CD, IBUS-SAS and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in predicting inflammatory activity in the terminal ileum in ileocolonoscopy in CD patients. METHODS Retrospective study including all consecutive CD patients submitted to IUS with CEUS directed to the terminal ileum performed by a single operator between April 2016 and March 2020. Segmental SUS-CD and IBUS-SAS were calculated. A time-intensity curve of the contrast bowel wall enhancement was created with measurement of peak intensity using CEUS. The CD endoscopic activity in ileocolonoscopy was graded by Simple Endoscopic Score for CD (SES-CD) as inactive (SES-CD < 7) or active (SES-CD ≥ 7). RESULTS Fifty patients were included, 54.0% were female, with mean age of 34 ± 12 years, and most had isolated ileal disease (60.0%), and a nonstricturing, nonpenetrating behaviour (44.0%). Most of the patients (60.0%) had active endoscopic disease (SES-CD ≥ 7). SUS-CD and IBUS-SAS were not different between patients with active or inactive endoscopic disease (p = 0.15; 0.57, respectively), having a poor accuracy to correlate endoscopic activity (area under de curve (AUC) 0.62; 0.55, respectively). Peak intensity in CEUS was significantly different in patients with active or inactive endoscopic disease (p = 0.004), having a good accuracy to correlate endoscopic activity (AUC 0.80). CONCLUSION Unlike CEUS, SUS-CD and IBUS-SAS were not able to accurately correlate endoscopic activity in terminal ileum in CD. Therefore, CEUS is a non-invasive emerging method that should be increasingly integrated in the ultrasonographic evaluation of CD patients.

Background
Cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is one of the major complications being reported in patients with breast cancer (BC) under chemotherapy, in particular with anthracyclines (A) or trastuzumab (T). CTRCD is defined as a reduction of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >10% to a value <50% or as a relative reduction of global longitudinal strain (GLS) >15%.
Purpose
We aim to evaluate the frequency of CTRCD and its clinical impact on BC patients.
Methods
Retrospective study of patients with BC treated with A and/or T between Jan 2017 and Dec 2018 who underwent a transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) before, during, and after chemotherapy. We analysed their baseline characteristics and outcomes based on the type of treatment received, and focusing specially on parameters of ventricular function.
Results
We included 128 females with median age of 54 ± 11 years-old, treated with A (78; 60.9%), T (14; 10.9%) or A followed by T (36; 28.1%).
At the end of A therapy, there was a significant decrease in LVEF (64,2 ± 5,4% vs 62.6 ± 5,3%, p < 0.05) and in GLS (-20,7 ± 1.9% vs -18.8 ± 2.2%, p < 0.001) compared to baseline. No change in tricuspid annular systolic velocity (S") (p = 0,842) was observed. At 2 years of follow-up, this group of patients had no significant difference in LVEF (64,58 ± 5,58 vs 62,63 ± 6,48, p = 0,053) but maintained a significant lower GLS (-20,84 ± 2,13 vs -18,51± 2,52, p < 0,001) compared to baseline. A significant decrease in S’ (14,36 ± 2,55 vs 13,25 ± 2,26, p < 0,05) was observed.
During T therapy, there was a significant decrease in LVEF (65,04 ± 5,41 vs 59,30 ± 6,21, p < 0,001), in GLS (-21,21 ± 2,75 vs -17,89 ± 2,77, p < 0,001) and in S’ (14,39 ± 3,05 vs 12,19 ± 1,62, p < 0,001) compared to baseline. At the end of T therapy (with or without A), this group of patients maintained a significant decrease in LVEF (65,11 ± 5,65 vs 61,29 ± 6,39, P < 0,001) and in GLS (-21.41%±2,86 vs -19.54%±3,50, p < 0,01). S’ returned to normal values (p = 0,10). At 2 years of follow-up, this group of patients maintained a significant decrease in LVEF (65,00 ± 5,99 vs 61,18 ± 6,30, p < 0,05) but GLS (p = 0,235) returned to normal values. No change in S’ was observed (p =0,379).
During a mean follow-up of 38 months, 35 (27%) patients developed CTRCD with a higher prevalence in patients who took A followed by T (18; 14%), 9 (7%) presented with clinical heart failure, 1 (1%) needed hospitalization, 5 (4%) needed to temporarily suspend treatment and 3 (2%) needed to definitely stop treatment.
Conclusions
Treatment with A was associated with a decrease in LV systolic function at the end of therapy. A decrease in right ventricular (RV) systolic function was observed at 2 years of follow-up. Treatment with T was associated with a decrease in RV and LV systolic function during therapy. CTRCD occurred in 27%, mainly on patients with both A and T therapy, a frequency within literature data. CTRCD had clinical impact leading to HF and suspension of chemotherapy.

Introduction
Cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is one of the major complications being reported in patients with breast cancer (BC) under chemotherapy, in particular with anthracyclines (A) or trastuzumab (T). Guidelines recommend regular left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessments and CTRCD management with cardioprotective medication (CPM). However, while secondary prevention has already entered clinical practice, primary prevention is still in the research domain.
Purpose
Our aim was to evaluate the role of CPM and the risk of CTRCD in BC patients.
Methods
Retrospective study of BC patients treated with A and/or T between Jan 2017 and Dec 2018 who underwent a transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) before, during, and after chemotherapy. Patients with baseline LVEF <50% were excluded. CTRCD is defined as reduction of EF >10% to a value <50% or as relative reduction of global longitudinal strain (GLS) >15%. As CPM we considered angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) and beta-blockers (BB).
Results
We included 128 patients, all female with median age of 54 ± 11 years-old, treated with A (78; 60.9%), T (14; 10.9%) or A followed by T (36; 28.1%).
At baseline, mean LVEF was 64,7 ± 5,7% and mean GLS was -20,8 ± 2,3.
During a mean follow-up of 38 months, 35 (27%) patients developed CTRCD with a higher prevalence in patients who took A followed by T (18; 14%), 9 (7%) presented with clinical heart failure, 1 (1%) needed hospitalization, 5 (4%) needed to temporarily suspend treatment and 3 (2%) needed to definitely stop treatment. ACEI/ARB therapy was initiated in 12 (34%) and BB therapy was initiated in 10 (29%). Twenty-one (60%) of CTRCD patients recovered. CPM initiation after CTRCD was not associated with a significant higher rate of cardiac function recovery (p = 0,682).
When comparing patients already medicated with CPM before cancer treatment (39; 30,5%) to those naïve of CPM, the first group presented a lower incidence of CTRCD (7% vs 20%) but it was not statistically significant (p = 0,473).
In patients treated with T or A + T, the group of patients treated with CPM before cancer treatment did not present a significantly lower incidence of CTRCD (p = 0,449) compared to patients CPM naïve. Nonetheless, there was a significant higher LVEF in the TTE during T therapy, after chemotherapy and at 2 years of follow-up (P <0,05) in patients treated with CPM before cancer treatment compared to patients CPM naïve.
In patients treated with A (without T) there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups.
Conclusion
In our study, pre-treatment with CPM was associated with a significant higher LVEF in patients treated with T but no significant association was found with respect to the occurrence of CTRCD. CPM initiation after CTRCD was not associated with a statistically significant cardiac function recovery.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate the timing, operative details, and outcomes of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with prior ligamentous knee surgery (LKS). All consecutive patients undergoing TKA with prior LKS at a single institution were identified from a large prospectively collected database. Patients were matched on a 2:1 basis according to age, sex, and body mass index to a group of patients without previous LKS undergoing primary TKA. A total of 39 patients with prior LKS and a mean age of 55.6 years (range: 42.8-76.4) were identified and matched with 78 patients without LKS with a mean age of 57.6 years (range: 44.0-79.4) undergoing primary TKA (p = 0.24). Significantly more posterior stabilized implants were used in patients with LKS compared with control patients (29 [74.3%] vs. 27 [34.6%], p < 0.001). In the LKS group, 15 patients (38.4%) required hardware removal. Postoperative complications and rate of further surgery were greater in the LCS group, but the difference was not significant (10.6 vs. 6.4%, p = 0.25). Mean difference in pre- to postoperative knee flexion and clinical outcome scores (12-item Short Form Survey, International Knee Documentation Committee, and Oxford Knee Score) were similar between the two groups, with no cases of loosening or osteolysis. TKA with prior LKS often warranted hardware removal and generally more constrained implants. Those patients with prior LKS undergoing subsequent TKA have higher complication rates and an increased rate of subsequent surgery related to post-TKA stiffness.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors, including abdominal obesity, dyslipidaemia, arterial hypertension and abnormal glucose homeostasis, which occur together more frequently than by chance. Diastolic dysfunction (DD) is one of the most frequent manifestations of subclinical cardiac involvement of MetS, ultimately leading to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Metformin's new potential therapeutic actions include prevention of cardiac remodeling and fibrosis.
Purpose
We aimed to evaluate if metformin improves diastolic function (DF) in non-diabetic patients with MetS.
Methods
A prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial was conducted over 24 months. Fifty-four non-diabetic adults with MetS and DD (defined as mean e'<10.2cm/s or <7.2cm/s for individuals 40–59 and 60–65 years old, respectively) were randomized to lifestyle counseling (control arm) or lifestyle counseling plus metformin (intervention arm) on a target dose of 1000 mg bid (figure 1). The primary endpoint was the change in mean e' velocity, assessed at 6, 12 and 24 months. Secondary endpoints included improvements in insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), functional capacity (peak oxygen uptake – VO2) and QoL (SF-36 score). Linear mixed effects modelling was used for longitudinal data analysis based on modified intention-to-treat (mITT) and per-protocol (PP) approaches.
Results
Forty-nine patients (mean age=51.8±6.4; 55% males) were included in the mITT analysis. Metformin use, on top of lifestyle counseling, led to an increase in mean e' velocity during follow-up (figure 2), with results at 24 months of +0.67±1.90cm/s (vs. −0.33±1.50cm/s in the control group, p=0.056), which reached statistical significance in PP analysis (+0.80±1.99cm/s vs. −0.37±1.52cm/s, p=0.039). In a random intercept linear mixed model adjusting for age, gender, treatment with drugs targeting the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis, presence of heart failure and baseline degree of DD, both mITT and PP analysis showed a statistically significant improvement of DF with metformin over time (β-coefficient=0.28, standard error (SE)=0.13, p=0.034, and β-coefficient=0.35, SE=0.14, p=0.011, respectively). This effect was independent of the observed reduction in insulin resistance. There were no differences regarding peak VO2 nor SF-36 score.
Conclusions
Treatment with metformin of non-diabetic MetS patients with DD, on top of lifestyle counseling, was associated with improved diastolic function.

Type of funding sources: Private grant(s) and/or Sponsorship. Main funding source(s): Merck
Background
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) affects one out of 3 adults in the western world and is associated with preclinical diastolic dysfunction that impairs functional capacity and quality of life (QoL).
Purpose
This randomized trial was designed to evaluate if the addition of metformin to the standard treatment of non-diabetic patients with MetS improves diastolic dysfunction.
Methods
Prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial. Fifty-four non-diabetic adults with MetS and diastolic dysfunction were randomized to lifestyle counseling or lifestyle counseling plus metformin (target dose 1000 mg bid). The primary endpoint was the change in mean e’ velocity (assessed at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months). Secondary endpoints were improvements in insulin resistance, functional capacity and QoL. Linear mixed effects modelling was used for longitudinal data analysis using modified intention-to-treat (mITT) and per-protocol (PP) approaches.
Results
Forty-nine patients were included in the mITT analysis (mean age = 51.8 ± 6.4; 55% males). Metformin treatment was associated with a significant decrease in HOMA-IR. There was a significantly different mean change in e’ velocity during the study period between trial arms, both in the mITT (at 24 months, change of +0.67 ± 1.90cm/s in metformin arm vs. -0.33 ± 1.50cm/s in control arm) and PP populations (+0.80 ± 1.99cm/s in metformin arm vs. -0.37 ± 1.52cm/s in control arm), using a random intercept linear mixed model. There were no significant differences in peak oxygen uptake and SF-36 scores between trial arms.
Conclusion
Treatment with metformin of non-diabetic MetS patients with diastolic dysfunction, on top of lifestyle counseling, is associated with improved diastolic function.

Abstract
CASE REPORT
We describe the case of a 64-year-old man who was referred because of a fever. He had history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, atrial fibrillation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and a right lung pneumectomy due to epidermoid lung cancer diagnosed twenty-five years ago. He implanted dual-chamber definite pacemaker ten years ago and had a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the previous year due to severe aortic stenosis and a high surgical risk.
He was hospitalized 2 months ago because of a respiratory infection. Blood cultures were positive for an Enterococcus faecalis. A transthoracic echocardiogram was performed and had no evidence of vegetations.
After one month, he had recurrence of fever and was again admitted. On physical examination he was hemodynamically stable, with signs of peripheral congestion and no heart murmur on cardiac auscultation. Blood cultures were again positive for Enterococcus faecalis. The transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) showed a biologic aortic valve with thickened leaflets and small nodular structures suggestive of vegetations. There was a small periprosthetic leak and no obstruction or suspected perivalvular abscesses. There was also a small vegetation with 0,45*0,3 cm in the auricular pacemaker lead. A thoraco-abdomino-pelvic computed tomography scan showed no embolic complications. A diagnosis of pacemaker and TAVI endocarditis was made. The patient started directed antibiotic therapy (ceftriaxone and ampicillin).
The case was discussed in Heart Team and because of high surgical risk, medical treatment was decided. The patient completed antibiotic treatment with negative blood cultures and apyrexia. A repeated TEE showed persistence of vegetations, without development of local complications.
It was decided to discharge the patient under palliative suppressive antibiotic treatment with levofloxacin after discussion with the infectious disease doctor. In a follow-up evaluation, he remained clinically stable, without recurrence of fever.
DISCUSSION
As TAVI procedures are performed more frequently, a higher number of late complications are expected. Prosthetic valve endocarditis after TAVI is a complex situation, whose treatment strategy is not well-defined, particularly because these patients are usually of high surgical risk. This case describes a complex clinical picture and highlights the difficulty in decision-making in these situations. Also, it pretends to reinforce the need to discuss in a Heart Team the best treatment options.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common and usually benign entity. Occasionally, patients with MVP present with mitral annular disjunction (MAD), whose prevalence and clinical significance are still not clearly established.
Purpose
This study aimed to define the prevalence of MAD in a population of patients with MVP and study its echocardiographic and clinical implication.
Methods
A total of 31 patients with MVP who underwent echocardiographic evaluation in our laboratory were retrospectively evaluated. Echocardiographic, demographic and clinical variables were assessed. Disjunction amplitude (DA) was measured in parasternal long axis view (PLAX) and MAD was considered present if a separation of ≥ 5mm was verified. Annular diameter was measured in PLAX and apical four chamber view (A4C) both in systole and diastole.
Results
MAD was identified in 9 patients (29%), having a mean DA of 12.3 ± 3.2 mm. The group of patients with MAD was significantly younger than the group without MAD (mean age of 54 ± 18 vs 67 ± 15 years; p = 0.001), but there were no significant differences regarding gender, height, weight or cardiovascular risk factors. DA was inversely correlated with body surface area (r=-0.8, p = 0.009). Systolic annular diameters in PLAX and A4C views were increased in patients with MAD (4.2 ± 0.6 vs 3.6 ± 0.7 mm, p= 0.04 and 4.8 ± 0.7 vs 4.1 ± 0.7 mm, p = 0.025, respectively). The difference between systolic and diastolic diameters in PLAX was also greater in MAD (0.5 ± 0.2 vs 0.1 ± 0.3 mm, p = 0.007). Posterior wall thickness (8.5 ± 1.1 vs 9.7 ± 1.4 mm, p = 0.035), indexed left ventricular mass (89.0 ± 15.8 vs 110.6 ± 40,2 g/m2, p = 0.04) and ascending aortic dimensions (28.7 ± 6.7 vs 37.4 ± 3.6 mm, p = 0.018) were notably inferior in MAD patients, as was left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) (57.5 ± 5.8 vs 62.6 ± 4.9 %, p = 0.0023). No differences were found in chamber volumes. Similarly, eletrocardiographic parameters were identical in both groups. Five patients (56%) in the group with MAD had documentation of events (palpitations, dizziness, syncope or sudden cardiac death), in contrast with just 3 (21%) in the group without MAD, although statistical significance was not achieved (p = 0.078).
Conclusion
This study revealed that MAD is common among patients with MVP and is associated with altered annulus dynamics during the cardiac cycle. Its association with younger individuals, lower LVEF and, apparently, more clinical events highlight the importance of this entity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficiency of traditional anthropometric measurements such as body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (Waist C) used to replace biomedical imaging for assessing visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is still highly controversial in youth. HYPOTHESIS AND OBJECTIVES We evaluated the most accurate model predicting VAT in overweight/obese youth, using various anthropometric measurements and their correlation with different body fat compartments, especially by testing, for the first time in youth, the hypothesis that subtracting the anthropometric measurement the most highly correlated with subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SAAT) and less correlated possible with VAT from an anthropometric abdominal measurement highly correlated with visceral and total abdominal adipose tissue (TAAT), predicts VAT with higher accuracy. SUBJECTS AND METHODS VAT and SAAT data resulted from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis performed on 181 boys and girls (7-17 y) from Diabetes & Endocrinology Care Paediatrics Clinic in Luxembourg. Height, weight, abdominal diameters, waist, hip, and thigh circumferences were measured with a view to developing the anthropometric VAT predictive algorithms. RESULTS In girls, subtracting proximal thigh circumference (Proximal Thigh C), the most closely correlated anthropometric measurement with SAAT, from Waist C, the most closely correlated anthropometric measurement with VAT was instrumental in improving VAT prediction, in comparison with the most accurate single VAT anthropometric surrogate. [Formula: see text] Residual analysis showed a negligible estimation error (5 cm2 ). In boys, Waist C was the best VAT predictor. CONCLUSIONS Subtraction of abdominal subcutaneous fat is important to predict VAT in overweight/obese girls.

Abstract
IntroductionThe work describes a successful experience in the utilization of art as a tool to work the prevention of the use of drugs. The experience was developed with children and adolescents between the ages of 3 and 17 who reside in a risky area near Latin America's biggest dump, located in the city of Taguatinga, FD, Brazil.ObjectivesCreate a therapeutic space to make possible the dialog with the children and adolescents, promoting the prevention and the consciousness about the harm of the use of psychoactive substances, providing clarification on the theme, through art, being the use of formal language and terms, like “illicit drugs”, unnecessary.MethodsThe children, who participated in the project, used, as expression tool, several painting items. The public was divided by age in two groups: the children received ludic approach, allowing the team nearness and interaction with them, in such a way that the former transmitted information and guidance about the harm on the use of psychoactive substances.ResultsThe results were satisfactory. All the children and adolescents involved in the project demonstrated adhesion to the use of the offered tools and established a communication link, which allowed the receptivity of information about prevention in the use of psychoactive substances.ConclusionsThrough the developed activities, it was observed that the strategy utilization of art as a language had better effiency than a formal approach since the children and adolescents could have a learning space in a spontaneous way, demonstrating interest.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract
IntroductionThe work was developed with the people hospitalized in the period of 1 year in a psychiatric clinic in Rio de Janeiro city, Brazil. 175 patients who presented dual diagnosis were evaluated.ObjectivesThe research aims to know the distribution of the most frequent psychiatric diagnosis associated with the disorders for the use of psychoactive substances. The work also has as objective to assess the treatment of patients carrying these disorders so that there is a better efficiency of the individual treatment plan.MethodsThe work consisted of the evaluation of all patients who were admitted to the clinic in the period of 1 year, using the ICD-10 for the diagnosis of dual pathologies. All the patients were assessed by the multiprofessional team, composed by general practicioner, psychiatrist, psychologist, pharmaceutic, therapist in chemical dependence, family therapist and physiotherapist. The patients were treated with the use of psychopharms, cognitive behavioral psychotherapy, 12-step program, art therapy and moderate physical activity. Family members of all patients were also interviewed.ResultsIn the evaluation conducted by the team, it was found the following distribution of the most frequent diagnosis associated to disorder for the use of psychoactive substances: depression (26.3%), personality disorder (22.9%), bipolar disorder (22.3%), non-schizophrenic psychosis (12.6%), schizophrenia (9.1%), and other diagnosis (6.8%).ConclusionsThe formulation of the dual diagnosis provided a better approach of the patients on the part of the team, promoting the strengthening of the therapeutic bond and causing positive impact on the evolution of these disorders.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract
AIM The number of examined lymph nodes (NLN) was associated with survival of stages II and III colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Guidelines recommend examining at least 12 lymph nodes. This study investigated the influence of surgical specimen length on lymph node harvest and compliance with international guidelines. MATERIALS AND METHODS This population-based study included 4,724 cases of surgically treated CRC that were diagnosed from 2002 to 2008. Multivariate analyses were performed for the main study variables (age, gender, diagnosis at screening or in symptomatic patients, cancer site, staging, grading, number of positive nodes, neo-adjuvant treatment for rectal cancer, hospital were surgery was performed). Fractional polynomial models investigated the relationship between continuous variables and outcomes. RESULTS The NLN increased over time reaching ≥12 NLN in 64% of cases at the end of the study period. More NLN were associated with young age, right colon cancer, pT3-T4 disease, stages II and III and high grade. Fewer NLN were associated with short surgical specimen length and neo-adjuvant treatment in rectal cancer patients. Use of laparoscopy increased sharply over time. CONCLUSIONS NLN increased over time in accordance with international guidelines. Surgical specimen length correlated with NLN which may determine therapeutic choices, particularly in stage II colon cancer. When harvested lymph nodes are under 10 in number and all are negative, chemotherapy is always recommended. As specimen lengths <20 cm were associated with a high risk of inadequate NLN counts, patients are at risk of over-treatment.

Abstract
The authors describe the incidence and mortality rates of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related female cancers in Umbria (Italy) in the pre-vaccination period from 1978-2008. Joinpoint regression was applied on age-adjusted incidence and mortality rates to evaluate temporal trends. Mouth and pharynx cancers incidence and mortality trends decreased about three percent per year. For anus and anal canal cancer, incidence and mortality trends presented a non-significant decrease. For malignant neoplasm of vulva, a significant change was found in incidence trend: the annual percentage change decreased from 2001 (- 1.8%). Mortality trend showed a non-significant decrease. Incidence and mortality rates from vaginal cancer were non-significantly decreased. For malignant neoplasm of cervix uteri, incidence rates showed a significant decrease by 2.1% per year. Mortality rates decreased as well, although non-significantly. HPV-related cancers consistently decreased in Umbria. This trend may be a consequence of safer sexual behavior. For cervical cancer, a combination of opportunistic and programmed screening led to a much-reduced disease burden. It is expected that the implementation of vaccination in the future will lead to a further decrease of HPV-related cancer incidence and mortality.

She had similar symptoms five months earlier and had undergone an extensive workup with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy, both normal and 99m-Tc-RBC-scintigraphy which was positive in the right lower quadrant. This time, capsule endoscopy was performed and disclosed an hemangioma with a dark spot suggesting recent bleeding in the ileum. The lesion was resected. Pathological examination revealed a transmural cavernous hemangioma. Small bowel hemangioma is a rare disease. Its diagnosis is extremely difficult and is usually obtained during surgery. Capsule endoscopy is an endoscopic technique that can improve preoperative diagnosis, as reported in the present case.
