Background: The usefulness of umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry for the monitoring of diabetic pregnancies is controversial. The aim of the present study was to assess whether umbilical artery Doppler velocity waveform analysis can predict adverse perinatal outcomes for pregnancies complicated by pre-existing diabetes mellitus. Methods: All diabetic pregnancies (type 1 and 2) delivered at Mater Mothers' Hospital, Queensland, between 1 January 1995 and 31 December 1999 were included. All pregnant diabetic women were monitored with umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry at 28, 32, 36, and 38 weeks' gestation. Adverse perinatal outcome was defined as pregnancies with one or more of the following: small-for-gestational age, Caesarean section for non-reassuring cardiotocography, fetal acidaemia at delivery, 1-min Apgar of 3 or less, 5-min Apgar of less than 7, hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy or perinatal death. Abnormal umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry was defined as a pulsatility index of 95th centile or higher for gestation. Results: One hundred and four pregnancies in women with pre-existing diabetes had umbilical arterial Doppler studies carried out during the study period. Twenty-three pregnancies (22.1%) had an elevated pulsatility index. If the scans were carried out within 2 weeks of delivery, 71% of pregnancies with abnormal umbilical Doppler had adverse outcomes (P < 0.01; likelihood ratio, 4.2). However, the sensitivity was 35%; specificity was 94%; positive predictive value was 80%; and negative predictive value was 68%. Only 30% of women with adverse perinatal outcomes had abnormal umbilical arterial Doppler flow. Conclusion: Umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry is not a good predictor of adverse perinatal outcomes in diabetic pregnancies.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative treatment for most children with osteopetrosis (OP). Timing of HSCT is critical; therefore, umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) is an attractive option. We analyzed outcomes after UCBT in 51 OP children. Median age at UCBT was 6 months. Seventy-seven percent of the cord blood grafts had 0 or 1 HLA disparity with the recipient. Conditioning regimen was myeloablative (mostly busulfan-based in 84% and treosulfan-based in 10%). Antithymocyte globulin was given to 90% of patients. Median number of total nucleated and CD34(+) cells infused was 14 × 10(7)/kg and 3.4 × 10(5)/kg, respectively. Median follow-up for survivors was 74 months. Cumulative incidence (CI) of neutrophil recovery was 67% with a median time to recovery of 23 days; 33% of patients had graft failure, 81% of engrafted patients had full donor engraftment, and 19% had mixed donor chimerism. Day 100 CI of acute graft-versus-host disease (grades II to IV) was 31% and 6-year CI of chronic graft-versus-host disease was 21%. Mechanical ventilation was required in 28%, and veno-occlusive disease was diagnosed in 16% of cases. Six-year overall survival rate was 46%. Comparative studies with other alternative donors should be performed to evaluate whether UCBT remains a valid alternative for children with OP without an HLA-matched donor.

Un film edibile è un sottile strato di materiale commestibile, preformato o formato direttamente sull'alimento, usato come rivestimento o inserito tra i diversi componenti dell'alimento stesso. Per le sue peculiari caratteristiche un film edibile è preparato con materiali commestibili e rappresenta una protezione per l'alimento dall'ambiente esterno. É dunque parte integrante dell'alimento, prolungandone la "shelf-life", ovvero il periodo di utilizzo in commercio del prodotto, dunque il tempo utile tra la data di confezionamento e di scadenza. Una maggiore "shelf-life" comporta molteplici vantaggi per tutti i settori coinvolti nella filiera alimentare: chi produce infatti può offrire ai distributori un prodotto con maggiori garanzie di qualità e conservazione, che distribuisce può allungare il periodo di esposizione negli scaffali e di stoccaggio nei magazzini, chi consuma ottiene un prodotto più sicuro e che può essere conservato più a lungo. I film edibili inoltre sono dotati di proprietà peculiari, infatti conferiscono protezione agli alimenti, costituendo un'interfaccia tra prodotto e ambiente e rallentando il decadimento qualitativo; hanno una natura ecologica perchè non incidono sull'inquinamento ambientale essendo commestibili; sono funzionali, poichè oltre al ruolo di imballaggio, possono assumere funzione antimicrobica e funzionale.
