Context: Lung transplantation is a viable option for patients with cystic fibrosis. The current strategy of selection, based on spirometry and deterioration of quality of life, results in a high mortality on the waiting list. We reviewed the case histories of patients with cystic fibrosis accepted for lung transplantation to ascertain whether pulmonary hemodynamics could contribute to predict life expectancy.', 'Forty-five patients with cystic fibrosis were accepted: 11 died on the waiting list (group I), 24 underwent transplantation (group II), and 10 are still waiting (group III). During evaluation we recorded spirometry, oxygen requirement, ratio of arterial oxygen tension to inspired oxygen fraction (PaO (2)/FIO (2)), arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO (2)), 6-minute walk test results, right ventricular ejection fraction, echocardiography, and pulmonary hemodynamics. We compared data from group I, II, and III patients. A comparison was also made within group II between the data collected at the time of evaluation and at the time of transplantation to quantify the deterioration during the waiting time.', 'The waiting time, spirometry, 6-minute walk test results, and right ventricular ejection fraction did not differ among the three groups. A statistically significant difference was found for PaO (2)/FIO (2), PaCO (2), mean pulmonary artery pressure, cardiac index, pulmonary arterial wedge pressure, and intrapulmonary shunt between groups I and II. Groups I and III showed statistically significant differences for mean pulmonary artery pressure, PaO (2)/FIO (2), and systemic vascular resistance indexed. No differences were observed between groups II and III. The comparison within group II showed a significant deterioration of pulmonary hemodynamics during the waiting time.
Answer: Pulmonary hemodynamics are worst in patients dying on the waiting list and deteriorate significantly during the waiting time. They may thus contribute to establish priority for lung transplantation in patients with cystic fibrosis.
answer:
Do pulmonary hemodynamics contribute to indicate priority for lung transplantation in patients with cystic fibrosis?

question:
Context: Impaired spatial working memory is a core cognitive deficit observed in people with 22q11 Deletion syndrome (22q11DS) and has been suggested as a candidate endophenotype for schizophrenia. However, to date, the neuroanatomical mechanisms describing its structural and functional underpinnings in 22q11DS remain unclear. We quantitatively investigate the cognitive processes and associated neuroanatomy of spatial working memory in people with 22q11DS compared to matched controls. We examine whether there are significant between-group differences in spatial working memory using task related fMRI, Voxel based morphometry and white matter fiber tractography.', 'Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging employing functional, diffusion and volumetric techniques were used to quantitatively assess the cognitive and neuroanatomical features of spatial working memory processes in 22q11DS. Twenty-six participants with genetically confirmed 22q11DS aged between 9 and 52 years and 26 controls aged between 8 and 46 years, matched for age, gender, and handedness were recruited.', 'People with 22q11DS have significant differences in spatial working memory functioning accompanied by a gray matter volume reduction in the right precuneus. Gray matter volume was significantly correlated with task performance scores in these areas. Tractography revealed extensive differences along fibers between task-related cortical activations with pronounced differences localized to interhemispheric commissural fibers within the parietal section of the corpus callosum.
Answer: Abnormal spatial working memory in 22q11DS is associated with aberrant functional activity in conjunction with gray and white matter structural abnormalities. These anomalies in discrete brain regions may increase susceptibility to the development of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia.

answer:
Does multimodal MRI reveal structural connectivity differences in 22q11 deletion syndrome related to impaired spatial working memory?

question:
Context: The aim of this study is to determine the consequences of delayed presentation of anorectal malformations and emphasize the causes of delayed diagnosis of these malformations.', 'We retrospectively reviewed 54 neonatal patients with a diagnosis of anorectal malformations. Group 1 consisted of 35 patients diagnosed within the first 48h of life and Group 2 included 19 patients diagnosed after 48h of life.', 'Obstructive symptoms at the time of diagnosis, overall complications and the mean postoperative hospitalization period in Group 2 were markedly higher than that of Group 1. A comprehensive neonatal examination within the first 48h of life was performed in 32 (91.4%) patients in Group 1 and 5 (26.3%) of the patients in Group 2 (p<0.001).
Answer: The passage of meconium is not the only sign of correctly positioned anus. A careful physical examination and awareness of this anomaly are of great importance in making a timely diagnosis of anorectal malformations.
answer:
Is the passage of meconium alone a sign of correctly positioned anus?
