    Abstract Purpose: Concerns remain on different alveolar deposition of surfactant between LISA and INSURE methods. Ultrasound evaluation of diaphragm kinetics may provide clinical evidence on this issue, as indirect representation of the respiratory system compliance.
    Methods: This was a prospective-observational pilot study. The inclusion criterion was CPAP-supported infants ≤ 32 weeks with RDS receiving surfactant via minimally invasive technique. 52 patients randomized for surfactant administration via LISA or INSURE methods were enrolled. Right diaphragm (RD) global mean peak velocity (MPV) by Pulsed-Wave Tissue Doppler Imaging (PTDI) was recorded before and two hours after surfactant administration with simultaneous measurements of oxygen saturation (SpO
    Results: LISA infants had significantly higher gestational age (p = 0.029) and birth weight (p = 0.030) with lower CRIB-II scores (p = 0.030) than INSURE infants. LISA infants showed higher median MPV at baseline RD-PTDI US assessment (p = 0.024), but post-surfactant median MPV and other the investigated variables were similar at the adjusted analysis for gestational age and sedation. 8/52 (15%) infants who failed treatment had a significantly lower SF ratio (p = 0.002) and higher median MPV at RD-PTDI US (p = 0.004) after surfactant administration, despite the higher CPAP support level before (p = 0.007) and after (p = 0.001) surfactant administration. A full course of antenatal steroids was protective against mechanical ventilation (p = 0.038).
    Conclusions: Different minimally invasive surfactant administration techniques do not appear to influence diaphragm kinetics evaluated by RD-PTDI US.

    Abstract Data from the K− absorption reaction on 6,7Li, 9Be, 13C and 16O have recently been collected by FINUDA at the DAΦNE φ-factory (Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati-INFN), following an earlier lower statitics run on 12C and some other targets. FINUDA is a high acceptance magnetic spectrometer which performed a wide range of studies by detecting the charged particles and neutrons exiting the targets after the absorption event. In this paper it is discussed about the study of the A(K− , Λp) reaction in the context of the search for deeply bound $ar{K}$ - nuclear states. The observation of a bump in the Λp invariant mass distribution is discussed in terms of a possible signature of a deeply bound K− pp kaonic cluster as well as of more conventional physics. An overview of the experimental situation in this field will be given.

    Abstract Purpose: To study the effects of terlipressin (TP) infusion on systemic perfusion, estimated with pulsed-wave Doppler ultrasonography of systemic arteries, in a population of extremely low birth-weight (ELBW) preterm infants with vasoactive-resistant ductus arteriosus.
    Methods: This prospective, observational cohort included, during five years, 12 ELBW infants with hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus and absent or reversed diastolic flow at Doppler ultrasonography of systemic arteries, despite treatment and high-dose vasoactive support. We measured flow velocity of the anterior cerebral, right renal, and superior mesenteric arteries before and after TP infusion. Changes were evaluated by Spearman's rho coefficient analysis, Wilcoxon signed-rank, and Friedman test.
    Results: Time-averaged mean velocity of the renal artery (P = .028) increased, while renal pulsatility (P = .010) and resistance (P = .004) indexes, and cerebral artery resistance index (P = .021) decreased after TP infusion. Time-averaged mean velocity of the anterior cerebral artery proportionately increased with dopamine dose (rho = 0.678; P = .015), but showed opposite shifts after TP (rho = -0.662; P = .024).
    Conclusions: These changes suggest that TP may improve systemic perfusion in the ELBW infants with vasoactive-resistant ductus arteriosus.

    Abstract Experience with terlipressin (TP) in the neonatal field is scarce. We describe the effects of TP on pulmonary circulation, studied with echocardiography, in an asphyxiated septic cooled infant with pulmonary hypertension (PH) who developed catecholamine-resistant hypotension and exacerbation of PH shortly after the beginning of the rewarming. TP was added to norephinephine and adrenaline infusions at the dose of 0.02 mg kg(-1) every 6 h, because of refractory hypotension and oliguria. After 10 min, blood pressure dramatically and definitely increased, and urinary output was re-established after 60 min. Echocardiographic evaluation 30 min after the second bolus of TP showed unchanged velocity of the tricuspidal valve regurgitation and improved biventricular functional indexes respect to the pre-treatment assessment. TP was continued for 12 h (three doses) without significant adverse effect except for a transient increase in troponin levels. Addition of TP boluses to catecholamine infusion in our newborn was effective in increasing systemic vascular resistance without increasing pulmonary vascular resistance, successfully reversing the hemodynamics of severe PH, and suggesting a potential primary vasodilator effect on pulmonary circulation. Transient increase of troponin levels during TP treatment confirms the risk of excessive coronary vasoconstriction when TP boluses are added to high dose catecholamines.

    Abstract Premature infants with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) are at high risk of severe respiratory failure because of lung hypodysplasia associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). We describe the clinical course of a 28-week gestation infant with PPROM from the 20th week and prolonged oligohydramnios before delivery, who developed refractory hypoxia treated with oral bosentan as adjunct therapy to inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) and oral sildenafil. Conclusion Our experience suggests that bosentan can be used in the premature infant with PPHN after PPROM. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of bosentan treatment in a premature infant.

    Abstract This retrospective study was carried out at eight Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) Centers worldwide on 33 newborns presenting at birth with pleural, pericardial, or abdominal chylous effusions. Diagnosis of chylous effusion is based on findings of fluid with a milk-like appearance, a concentration of triglycerides in pleural effusion >1.1 mmol/l, and a total cell count >1,000 cells/ml with a predominance of >80% lymphocytes. Thirty-three newborns met the inclusion criteria and were studied. Six subjects who presented at birth with fetal effusion were treated by in-utero pleuro-amniotic shunt. Five of these patients are alive at follow-up. At birth, pleural drainage was performed in 29/33 patients and abdominal drainage was carried out in 3/33. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) was given to 32/33 patients; 19/23 patients were fed a medium-chain triglycerides (MCT). No adverse effects were observed. Eight patients were treated with Octreotide at dosages ranging from 1 to 7 mcg/kg/hour for 8 to 35 days. All patients showed decreased chylous production. Two patients were treated by pleurodesis. Twenty-two babies are alive after at least 6 months follow-up, 9/33 are deceased, and 2 were lost to follow-up. Clinical conditions of survivors are basically good except for lung involvement [chronic lung disease (CLD) or lung lymphangiectasia] and lymphedema. All patients were using a MCT diet at follow-up with good control of chylous effusion. Visceral chylous effusions of the fetus and neonate are rare disorders, and there currently is only partial agreement on decision-making strategies. We suggest the need for an international prospective trial in an effort to establish the efficacy and effectiveness of diagnostic and therapeutic options described in this article.

    Abstract Evidence for the neutron-rich hypernucleus (Λ)(6)H is presented from the FINUDA experiment at DAΦNE, Frascati, studying (π+,π-) pairs in coincidence from the K(stop)(-) + (6)Li →(Λ)(6)H + π+ production reaction followed by (Λ)(6)H → (6)He + π- weak decay. The production rate of (Λ)(6) undergoing this two-body π- decay is determined to be (2.9 ± 2.0) × 10(-6)/K(stop)(-). Its binding energy, evaluated jointly from production and decay, is BΛ((Λ)(6)H) = (4.0 ± 1.1) MeV with respect to (5)H+Λ. A systematic difference of (0.98 ± 0.74) MeV between BΛ values derived separately from decay and from production is tentatively assigned to the (Λ)(6)H 0(g.s.)(+) → 1+ excitation.
