Clinical and biochemical data for the diagnosis of endogenous hypercortisolism: the “Cushingomic” approach
Get PDFBackground: The recommended first-line screening tests for Cushing’s syndrome (CS) are cortisol after dexamethasone suppression test (DS), 24h urinary free cortisol (UFC), and late night salivary cortisol (LNSC). We collected them and evaluated in combination with the clinical presentation of suspected CS.
Methods: We analysed 1-mg DST (with dexamethasone levels), UFC and LNSC (with tandem-mass spectrometry) in patients without CS (263 suspected CS, 319 adrenal and 33 pituitary incidentalomas) and 40 confirmed CS. Non-parametric multivariate methods (principal component analysis, K-means clustering, random forest, and supervised learning algorithm) were used to compute an integrated analysis among screening tests (1-mg DST, UFC, LNSC), cortisol-related comorbidities and signs/symptoms of CS.
Findings: The three tests were able to individuate CS, cortisol after DST and UFC were slightly superior to LNSC. The threshold of 1-mg DST should be adapted to the population considered, especially in adrenal incidentaloma with mild autonomous cortisol secretion, the results of UFC and LNSC were independent of the group or high-risk condition considered. Some cortisol-related comorbidities were more common in patients without CS (diabetes, hypertension, and obesity), their correlation with screening tests was poor: the direction of their vectors was not aligned. A neural network model that combined screening tests and clinical presentation was able to predict the CS diagnosis in the validation cohort with 99% sensitivity, 86% specificity, 99% precision and 86% accuracy.
Interpretation: Screening tests for CS performed adequately. The presence of cortisol-related comorbidities and mild autonomous cortisol secretion in adrenal incidentalomas should be interpreted carefully
GEOPLANET IO8 Geological 3D Model
Get PDFThis document has been prepared by the University of Padova in collaboration with the University D’Annunzio and the whole consortium of the Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership GeoPlaNet-SP (ref. 2020-1-FR01-KA203-079773). The Intellectual Output consists of the geological interpretation of a section of the Bletterbach gorge right slope (Aldino-Trentino Alto Adige). The section was reconstructed as a Digital Outcrop Model (DOM) by a photogrammetric acquisition carried out with a drone during the Predazzo session of the School on Planetary Geological mapping and Field Analogues (see GEOPLANET IO10). The interpretation was carried out using VRGS software which allow to derive simplified geomodels in 3D

Magnitude shifts spatial attention from left to right in young rhesus monkeys
No full textHumans represent numbers and quantities as increasingly orientated from left to right. Traditionally, these associations were considered cultural by-products. Recent comparative and developmental evidence challenged this idea. Newborns and animals have shown spatial-numerical association, but evidence on spatial-quantity association and the link between discrete and continuous magnitudes is sparce.
Here, we explore whether the magnitude could shift the spatial bias from left to right in young rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta). We designed a touch-screen task which required to remember and select a dot on which a target stimulus appeared. At test, monkeys faced arrays of 2, 4, 6 or 10 dots and maintained high performance through changes in arrays’ location, spacing and length. Remarkably, facing 2-dot arrays monkeys remembered better the left target; facing 6- or 10-dot arrays they remembered better the right targets. In a continuous transfer test, in which the array of dots was replaced with a long bar, they still remember better the right than left locations.
Our results demonstrate that rhesus macaques transfer a learned rule from discrete to continuous magnitudes, proving that in animals the association with space is not limited to numbers but comprises other magnitudes, like in humans
