2015
Objective Fear of childbirth is a common reason for seeking cesarean section. It is important to consider outcomes and costs associated with alternative treatment and delivery mode. We compared well-being and costs of group psychoeducation and conventional care for fear of childbirth. Design Randomized controlled trial. Population A total of 371 nulliparous women scoring over the 95th centile in the Wijma Delivery Expectancy Questionnaire (W-DEQ) during the first trimester. Setting Finland, data from obstetrical patient records and questionnaires. Methods Randomization to group psychoeducation with relaxation (six sessions during pregnancy, one after childbirth, n = 131), or surveillance an…
Hysteroscopic removal of a gauze inadvertently retained in uterus for two years following caesarean section
2021
Despite the worldwide accomplishment of manual counting procedures of surgical textiles and instruments, cases of retained (forgotten) surgical items (RSIs) still occur. Gauzes are the most frequently RSIs, accounting for 90% of the cases because they are widely used. Approximately half of the cases occur in the context of general surgery procedures, fol- lowed by gynaecological – obstetrics surgery. The time inter- val between initial surgery, diagnosis and removal of the gauze is clinically relevant, as the morbidity and mortality are reduced if the foreign body is removed immediately after the offending operation. We report on a successful hysteroscopic identification and removal of a ga…
Therapeutic group psychoeducation and relaxation in treating fear of childbirth
2006
The increase in the numbers of women fearing childbirth and requesting cesarean sections call for new forms of antenatal treatment.Finnish nulliparous women experiencing severe fear of childbirth (experimental group, n = 102) attended 5 group sessions with a psychologist, once together with a midwife, during the third trimester. One session was held 3 months after the delivery. Each session consisted of a discussion of fear and feelings towards the impending birth and parenthood in a psychotherapeutic atmosphere and of relaxation exercises focused on an imaginary childbirth. The results were compared with those of 85 women treated for fear of childbirth by 2 appointments with an obstetricia…
Advances in pharmacological treatment of type 1 diabetes during pregnancy.
2019
Introduction: In women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), pregnancy is associated with a potential risk of maternal, foetal and neonatal outcomes. Stringent metabolic control is required to improve these outcomes. Areas covered: In this review, the authors summarise the current evidence from studies on the pharmacological therapy and on monitoring of T1DM during pregnancy. The authors also discuss the use of new technologies to improve therapeutic management and patient compliance. Expert opinion: Pre-conception counselling is essential in T1DM to minimise pregnancy risks. Pregnancy in T1DM is always considered a high-risk pregnancy. During pregnancy, the target haemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) i…
CD133 expression in placenta chorioangioma presenting as a giant asymptomatic mass
2021
Background: Placental chorioangioma is the most common benign non-trophoblastic neoplasm of the placenta. Its clinical relevance lies in the size of the tumor since larger masses cause pregnancy complications, including an unfavorable neonatal outcome. Case presentation: We report the case of a 34-year-old second gravida and nullipara at the 35th week of gestation, admitted to the gynecological department for antibiotic-resistant fever. The cardiotocography performed during hospitalization showed an abnormal fetal pattern. A 2250 g newborn was delivered by cesarean section. No complications were observed during childbirth and postpartum was insignificant. On gross inspection a white fleshy …
Vivante, Cesare
2020
Una biografia, privata e intellettuale, di Cesare Vivante (1855-1944), maestro indiscusso della scienza italiana del diritto commerciale. Vivante impresse alla giuscommercialistica italiana un’identità culturale e metodologica che trascese le generazioni e le appartenenze, elevandosi ad elemento fondante di una tradizione nazionale di altissimo profilo. Fece del diritto una «scienza di osservazione», una scienza empirica, impregnata di venature positivistiche e sociologiche. Esercitò dall'inizio alla fine della sua lunga carriera una profonda critica, di orientamento democratico e sociale, al diritto privato italiano. A private and intellectual biography of Cesare Vivante (1855-1944), consi…
‘Dentro la Selva Ercinia’
2008
La digressione sulla Selva Ercinia (De bello Gallico VI, 26-29) è presa in esame da un punto di vista romano, piuttosto che germanico (anche perché Cesare aveva una limitata conoscenza della cultura germanica) e per quanto il suo contenuto può dire degli intendimenti di Cesare. I tre animali descritti (renna, alce, e uro) sono rappresentati secondo le regole del canone letterario e sono stati prescelti per la loro natura topica (e retorica) come emblemi della fauna settentrionale. Cesare vuole anche presentare al suo pubblico nuove specie di animali selvaggi come quelli apprezzati nei ludi circensi e che si potrebbero fare sfilare in un suo trionfo, insistendo al contempo sulla difficoltà/i…

Non-immune hydrops fetalis: Two case reports
2021
BACKGROUND Fetal hydrops is a serious condition difficult to manage, often with a poor prognosis, and it is characterized by the collection of fluid in the extravascular compartments. Before 1968, the most frequent cause was the maternal-fetal Rh incompatibility. Today, 90% of the cases are non-immune hydrops fetalis. Multiple fetal anatomic and functional disorders can cause non-immune hydrops fetalis and the pathogenesis is incompletely understood. Etiology varies from viral infections to heart disease, chromosomal abnormalities, hematological and autoimmune causes. CASE SUMMARY A 38-year-old pregnant woman has neck lymphoadenomegaly, fever, cough, tonsillar plaques at 14 wk of amenorrhea…
