    Abstract Astrocytes play crucial roles in regulating neural circuit function by forming a dense network of synapse-associated membrane specializations, but signaling pathways regulating astrocyte morphogenesis remain poorly defined. Here, we show the Drosophila lipid-binding G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) Tre1 is required for astrocytes to establish their intricate morphology in vivo. The lipid phosphate phosphatases Wunen/Wunen2 also regulate astrocyte morphology and, via Tre1, mediate astrocyte-astrocyte competition for growth-promoting lipids. Loss of s1pr1, the functional analog of Tre1 in zebrafish, disrupts astrocyte process elaboration, and live imaging and pharmacology demonstrate that S1pr1 balances proper astrocyte process extension/retraction dynamics during growth. Loss of Tre1 in flies or S1pr1 in zebrafish results in defects in simple assays of motor behavior. Tre1 and S1pr1 are thus potent evolutionarily conserved regulators of the elaboration of astrocyte morphological complexity and, ultimately, astrocyte control of behavior.

    Abstract We evaluated the salivary immunoglobulin G (IgG) immune response to Helicobacter pylori in 70 subjects by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Subjects with a positive H. pylori culture showed significantly higher titers of antibodies than subjects with no detectable H. pylori: the overall sensitivity and specificity of the test were 84 and 90%, respectively. The detection of salivary anti-H. pylori IgG antibodies may be considered as an alternative to serum IgG detection for ease of sample collection or when blood samples are not available in screening of patients with dyspepsia.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of a commercial serological enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for detecting salivary immunoglobulin (Ig) G to Helicobacter pylori.
    Design: Prospective, multicentre study.
    Setting: The study was conducted at 11 gastroenterology hospital centres throughout Italy.
    Participants and interventions: Two hundred and thirteen dyspeptic patients underwent gastroscopy with antral biopsies. At each centre, two of the following three tests for H. pylori diagnosis were performed: urease quick test, histology, and 13C-urea breath test. Samples of unstimulated saliva and venous blood were collected from each patient. Salivary and serum H. pylori IgG were determined with the EIA Helori-test IgG (Eurospital, Trieste, Italy).
    Main outcome measures: Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and accuracy of the salivary and serum EIAs.
    Results: By using a receiver operating characteristic curve, salivary EIA yielded 81% (95% confidence interval 73-87%) sensitivity, 73% (62-83%) specificity, 84% (76-90%) positive predictive value, 69% (58-79%) negative predictive value, and 78% (72-84%) accuracy. At the cut-off suggested by the manufacturer, serum EIA had 90% (84-95%) sensitivity, 78% (67-86%) specificity, 88% (81-93%) positive predictive value, 82% (71-90%) negative predictive value, and 86% (81-91%) accuracy.
    Conclusion: In this large multicentre study, detection of salivary H. pylori IgG with a commercial serological EIA was a fairly accurate diagnostic method. Data confirm that saliva testing does not compare favourably with serology in the assessment of H. pylori status.

  9. Article ; Online: Neck muscle spasticity in patients with disorder of consciousness: a pilot study.

    Abstract: ... of the other confounding variables at admission (e.g., age, severity of brain injury, functional assessment, and pain ...

    Abstract Background: Disorder of consciousness (DOC) is a state of prolonged altered consciousness due to severe acquired brain injury (ABI). DOC can be differentiated into coma, unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS), or minimally conscious state (MCS) depending on the behavioral features observed and their relationship to the level of consciousness. Spasticity is one of the most frequently reported medical comorbidities in DOC patients. Since there is a critical lack of spasticity-focused studies and, in turn, of target treatment, we designed this pilot prospective study to evaluate cervical spine muscle spasticity and its effect on rehabilitation outcome in a large cohort of patients followed from the post-acute phase to 6 months after severe ABI.
    Aim: To evaluate neck muscle spasticity and investigate its impact on neurological and functional outcome in a large cohort of adult patients with DOC followed from post-acute to 6 months after severe ABI.
    Design: Single-center prospective pilot study.
    Setting: Highly specialized inpatient neurorehabilitation clinic.
    Population: Patients with severe ABI admitted within 3 months after the acute event to our Neurorehabilitation Unit between May 21
    Methods: In this single-center prospective pilot study demographic data, etiology of ABI (traumatic versus non-traumatic), DOC evaluated with the revised Coma Recovery Scale (CRS-R), and neurological and functional outcome assessed respectively with the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) were considered. During cervical examination, we assessed spasticity with the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), deviation of head alignment with a goniometer, and pain with the Nociception Coma Scale-Revised (NCS-R).
    Results: Of the 48 patients, 41.7% were diagnosed with UWS and 58.3% were in a minimally conscious state (MCS). We found spasticity of neck muscles in 91.7% of patients, with no difference in severity (assessed with MAS) between UWV and MCS. The NCS-R score at cervical spine examination was lower in UWS than MCS. Spasticity was severer in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) compared to non-traumatic. At multiple linear regression analysis, younger age, hemisyndrome, and tetraparesis were independent predictors of severity of neck muscle spasticity in MCS. More severe spasticity was a predictor of worse neurological and functional outcome at discharge in UWS patients, independently of the other confounding variables at admission (e.g., age, severity of brain injury, functional assessment, and pain).
    Conclusions: Spasticity of neck muscles frequently develops in patients with DOC and is more severe in those after TBI. UWV and MCS have different spasticity profiles as regards risk factors and neurological and functional outcome. Severity of neck muscle spasticity in UWV patients may represent an early indicator of worse neurological and functional outcome after inpatient rehabilitation.
    Clinical rehabilitation impact: Our findings could prompt clinicians to redefine the rehabilitation aims regarding spasticity and to estimate the functional outcome in patients undergoing intensive rehabilitation after severe ABI.
