    Abstract Objectives: Severe polyhydramnios during pregnancy may be associated with long-term lithium use and presents considerable challenges. This complication, which has been linked to induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), underscores the necessity for cautious management of pregnant women with bipolar disorder. This case report aims to elucidate the relationship between long-term lithium use, pregnancy, and the development of severe polyhydramnios, emphasizing the importance of diagnosing NDI in order to prevent obstetric and neonatal complications.
    Methods: We present the case of a 42-year-old primigravida undergoing long-term lithium treatment for bipolar disorder type I, who developed severe polyhydramnios at 34 weeks of gestation. Clinical data including obstetric monitoring and neonatal outcomes were analyzed.
    Results: This case emphasizes the need for heightened awareness and proactive measures to mitigate the risk associated with lithium treatment during pregnancy. Close monitoring and timely interventions are essential to ensure optimal outcomes for both mother and fetus.
    Conclusions: Our article puts forth the hypothesis that there is a link between lithium use during pregnancy and the occurrence of polyhydramnios and Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus (NDI), which may lead to severe obstetric and neonatal complications. This case report contributes to the limited literature on the subject and gives doctors practical advice that may help them make a better risk-benefit analysis. Further research is warranted in order to refine risk assessment protocols and management strategies in this complex clinical scenario.

    Abstract The early-stage diagnosis of cancer is a crucial clinical need. The inadequacies of surgery tissue biopsy have prompted a transition to a less invasive profiling of molecular biomarkers from biofluids, known as liquid biopsy. Exosomes are phospholipid bilayer vesicles present in many biofluids with a biologically active cargo, being responsible for cell-to-cell communication in biological systems. An increase in their excretion and changes in their cargo are potential diagnostic biomarkers for an array of diseases, including cancer, and they constitute a promising analyte for liquid biopsy. The number of exosomes released, the morphological properties, the membrane composition, and their content are highly related to the physiological and pathological states. The main analytical challenge to establishing liquid biopsy in clinical practice is the development of biosensors able to detect intact exosomes concentration and simultaneously analyze specific membrane biomarkers and those contained in their cargo. Before analysis, exosomes also need to be isolated from biological fluids. Microfluidic systems can address several issues present in conventional methods (i.e., ultracentrifugation, size-exclusion chromatography, ultrafiltration, and immunoaffinity capture), which are time-consuming and require a relatively high amount of sample; in addition, they can be easily integrated with biosensing systems. A critical review of emerging microfluidic-based devices for integrated biosensing approaches and following the major analytical need for accurate diagnostics is presented here. The design of a new miniaturized biosensing system is also reported. A device based on hollow-fiber flow field-flow fractionation followed by luminescence-based immunoassay is applied to isolate intact exosomes and characterize their cargo as a proof of concept for colon cancer diagnosis.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the utility of telemedicine in the treatment of adult patients with strabismus.
    Methods: A 27-question online survey was sent to ophthalmologists of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AAPOS) Adult Strabismus Committee. The questionnaire focused on the frequency of telemedicine utilization, the benefits in the diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment of adult strabismus, and barriers of current forms of remote patient visits.
    Results: The survey was completed by 16 of 19 members of the committee. Most respondents (93.8%) reported 0 to 2 years of experience with telemedicine. Telemedicine was found to be useful for initial screening and follow-up of established patients with adult strabismus, mainly to reduce wait time for a subspecialist visit (46.7%). A successful telemedicine visit could be completed with a basic laptop (73.3%) or a camera (26.7%) or could be assisted by an orthoptist. Most participants agreed that common forms of adult strabismus (cranial nerve palsies, sagging eye syndrome, myogenic strabismus, and thyroid ophthalmopathy) could be examined via webcam. It was easier to analyze horizontal than vertical strabismus. Among the paralytic forms, sixth nerve palsy was the easiest one to assess. Latent forms of strabismus can be partially diagnosed and evaluated using telemedicine, but half of the respondents underlined the importance of in-person examinations in these cases. Sixty-nine percent believed that telemedicine could be a low-cost and time-efficient health service solution.
    Conclusions: Most members of the AAPOS Adult Strabismus Committee consider telemedicine to be a useful supplement to the current adult strabismus practice.

    Abstract There is a growing interest in the named "acidic sterolbiome" and in the genetic potential of the gut microbiome (GM) to modify bile acid (BA) structure. Indeed, the qualitative composition of BAs in feces correlates with the bowel microorganisms and their collective genetic material. GM is responsible for the production of BA metabolites, such as secondary and oxo-BAs. The specific BA profiles, as microbiome-host co-metabolic products, could be useful to investigate the GM-host interaction in animals under physiological conditions, as well as in specific diseases. In this context, we developed and validated an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous analysis of up to 21 oxo-BAs and their 9 metabolic precursors. Chromatographic separation was achieved in 7 min with adequate analytical performance in terms of selectivity, sensitivity (LOQ from 0.05 to 0.1 µg/mL), accuracy (bias% < 5%), precision (CV% < 5%) and matrix effect (ME% < 10%). A fast solvent extraction protocol has been fine-tuned, achieving recoveries > 90%. In parallel, the gut microbiota assessment in farming animals was evaluated by 16S rRNA next-generation sequencing, and the correlation with the BA composition was performed by multivariate analysis, allowing to reconstruct species-specific associations between the BA profile and specific GM components.

    Abstract Bile acids (BAs), endogenous acidic steroids synthetized from cholesterol in the liver, play a key role in the gut-liver axis physiopathology, including in hepatotoxicity, intestinal inflammatory processes, and cholesterol homeostasis. Faecal Oxo-BAs, relatively stable intermediates of oxidation/epimerization reactions of the BA hydroxyls, could be relevant to investigating the crosstalk in the liver-gut axis and the relationship between diseases and alterations in microbiota composition. A paucity of information currently exists on faecal BA profiles in dogs with and without chronic inflammatory enteropathy (CIE). Comprehensive assessment of 31 molecules among faecal BAs and related microbiota metabolites was conducted with high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Odds ratios (ORs) for associations of BAs with CIE were estimated using logistic regression. Principal component analysis was performed to find differences between the control and pathological dogs. Higher levels of primary BAs and muricholic acids, and lower levels of secondary BAs were found in pathological dogs. Higher concentrations in faecal oxo-metabolites were associated with the absence of CIE (OR < 1). This study shows a marked difference in faecal BA profiles between dogs with and without CIE. Further research will be needed to better understand the role of oxo-BAs and muricholic acids in CIE dogs.
