Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting 300 million people worldwide, especially children. In Italy, asthma affects 3 million patients and represents one of the main expenses of the Italian National Heath Care Service. According to the definition provided by the GINA guidelines, asthma is characterized by a variable and reversible limitation of expiratory airflow and by the following symptoms: wheezing, dyspnoea, thoracic constriction and/or cough. The type and the severity of airflow limitation can vary over time (1) depending on external agents, such as physical exercise, polluting agents, climate changes and viral infections. The therapy is mainly based on the use of inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators. Patients affected by severe asthma (\~ 10% of total prevalence of asthma and at high risk of exacerbations and/or hospitalization) may not control their symptoms, even if exposed to maximal doses of inhalation therapy. More than one third of severe asthma patients receive oral corticosteroids prescriptions, with the risk of severe and irreversible adverse events. Therapy adherence is generally poor when therapeutic regimes are prescribed for chronic diseases, including asthma (4). The behavioural sciences can potentially help to find the psychological factors behind scarce adherence and to develop strategies with the aim of improving the interactive processes between patients, medical doctors and health care professionals (4). Several studies have described intervention models focused on education of the patients to symptoms and exacerbations recognition, therapy management, reduction of the exposure to trigger agents and improvement of social and physical activities (5-6). The intervention is not able to make patients independent in disease managing, but can improve the cooperation in asthma management. Another important aspect in asthma management is the quality of the therapeutic intervention: the correct delivery of inhalation therapy is the key for the disease control (3). Specific educational intervention such as "asthma school" can improve symptoms control and reduce; however, up to day, a universal and standardized protocol is not available and further studies are needed.
Standard circumcision under general anaesthesia with ultrasound-guided pudendal nerve block.Pudendal nerve block patients will be positioned dorsally with the legs in the " frog " position (hips in abduction, knees flexed, sole of the feet together). An ultrasound-guided technique will be used as described previously. A linear probe will be positioned horizontally between the ischiatic tuberosity and the rectum. The ischiorectal fossa is then located between these two landmarks. Using a sterile tech-nique, an echogenic 22 gauge, 50 mm block needle will be inserted out of plane on the superior edge of the probe, midline between the ischiatic tuberosity and the rectum. After feeling two distinct fascial " clics " and confirmation of correct needle posi-tioning in the ischiorectal fossa under ultrasound, 0,2 mL/kg (max 10mL) of ropiva-caine 0,25% will be injected under real-time ultrasound-guidance after negative aspiration. The same technique will be repeated on the contralateral side.
The root canal is disinfected and calcium hydroxide is placed in the canal. Blood clot is induced in the canal 4 weeks later. Endodontic Regeneration is performed.
Patients receive lymphodepleting regimen per treating physician's discretion 3-14 days before the T-cell infusion. Patients receive CD19CAR-CD28-CD3zeta-EGFRt-expressing Tn/nem-enriched T cells IV over 15 minutes on day 0. Patients who have evidence of disease, whose tumor(s) continue to express the appropriate antigen target may receive an optional second infusion of CD19CAR-CD28-CD3zeta-EGFRt-expressing Tn/nem-enriched T cells after 28 days.
This protocol is an open label, non-randomized study designed to test whether treatment with BG9588, a humanized monoclonal antibody specific for CD154, can induce a state of allograft tolerance following renal allotransplantation in humans. This study is designed to primarily assess the safety and efficacy of BG9588 when given alone or in combination with steroids and mycophenolate to prevent renal allograft rejection without the use of calcineurin inhibitors or other chronic anti-rejection therapies. Efficacy parameters will include the incidence of acute and chronic rejection episodes, and immunological graft loss. Additional evaluation will be performed to specifically assess the development of donor-specific immune hyporesponsiveness resulting from the use of BG9588.

This study is based on extensive use of BG9588 in non-human primates and pilot evaluation in humans. Up to five patients in each group receiving primary renal allografts will be treated with a 12-month course of BG9588 with or without steroids and mycophenolate to prevent allograft rejection. The recruitment will be performed first in the group with steroids and mycophenolate. Subjects will receive BG9588 at a dose of 70 mg/kg (based on ideal body weight at baseline) via a continuous 60 minute IV infusion within 24 hours pre-operatively followed by a 30 mg/kg dose via a continuous 30 minute IV infusion on the following days: within 24 hours post-transplantation, and on days 3, 10, 18, 28, then monthly through 12 months post-transplantation. The enrollment will be staggered such that early efficacy will be demonstrated in 5 patients prior to completing enrollment. Following 12 months of therapy, patients may be extended to receive additional monthly therapy.

Long-term follow up will occur through 30 months after the last dose of BG9588. Mechanistic evaluations testing for allograft tolerance will be performed throughout the study including evaluations for allospecific T cell deletion, allospecific T cell anergy, and alloantibody production. The donor population for this study will include both living donors and cadaveric donors. This is being done to address the theoretical concern that ischemic reperfusion injury may negatively affect the efficacy of BG9588.
The surgeon holds the left angle of the rectus sheath incision with an Allis. Using (Polyglactin 910) suture,The needle is taken from the inside outward on the upper edge.The needle is then taken lateral to the Allis and brought back into the wound by taking it through the inferior edge from outside to inside . A square knot is tied with three or four throws. The needle is then taken out of the wound through the upper edge and continuous running stitches . As the right angle is approached, the angle is held with an Allis. the suture, will be taken through the lower edge, is brought outside the wound and passed between the blades of a closed Allis before taking it inside out on the upper edge. One more bite is taken but this time just lateral to the Allis holding the angle, and the needle is brought back into the wound and to the outside between the edges of the rectus sheath. Using the loop of polyglactin held with the Allis , an Aberdeen knot is tied after removing the Allis.
Adverse reactions common to all sulfonamide derivatives may occur: anaphylaxis, fever, rash (including erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis), crystalluria, renal calculus, bone marrow depression, thrombocytopenic purpura, hemolytic anemia, leukopenia, pancytopenia and agranulocytosis. Caution is advised for early detection of such reactions and the drug should be discontinued and appropriate therapy instituted. 

In patients with pulmonary obstruction or emphysema where alveolar ventilation may be impaired, Acetazolamide for Injection which may precipitate or aggravate acidosis, should be used with caution.

Caution is advised for patients receiving concomitant high-dose aspirin and Acetazolamide for Injection, as anorexia, tachypnea, lethargy, metabolic acidosis, coma, and death have been reported (see WARNINGS).

Both increases and decreases in blood glucose levels have been described in patients treated with acetazolamide. This should be taken into consideration in patients with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes mellitus.

Acetazolamide treatment may cause electrolyte imbalances, including hyponatremia and hypokalemia, as well as metabolic acidosis. Therefore, periodic monitoring of serum electrolytes is recommended. Particular caution is recommended in patients with conditions that are associated with, or predispose a patient to, electrolyte and acid/base imbalances, such as patients with impaired renal function (including elderly patients; see PRECAUTIONS, Geriatric Use), patients with diabetes mellitus, and patients with impaired alveolar ventilation.

Some adverse reactions to acetazolamide, such as drowsiness, fatigue, and myopia, may impair the ability to drive and operate machinery.
OBJECTIVE: Aortic dissection (AD) is a prevalent and acute clinical catastrophe characterized by abrupt manifestation, swift progression, and elevated fatality rates. Despite smoking being a significant risk factor for AD, the precise pathological process remains elusive. This investigation endeavors to explore the mechanisms by which smoking accelerates AD through ferroptosis induction.
METHODOLOGY: In this novel study, we detected considerable endothelial cell death by ferroptosis within the aortic inner lining of both human AD patients with a smoking history and murine AD models induced by β-aminopropionitrile, angiotensin II, and nicotine. Utilizing bioinformatic approaches, we identified microRNAs regulating the expression of the ferroptosis inhibitor Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). Nicotine's impact on ferroptosis was further assessed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) through modulation of miR-1909-5p. Additionally, the therapeutic potential of miR-1909-5p antagomir was evaluated in vivo in nicotine-exposed AD mice.
FINDINGS: Our results indicate a predominance of ferroptosis over apoptosis, pyroptosis, and necroptosis in the aortas of AD patients who smoke. Nicotine exposure instigated ferroptosis in HUVECs, where the miR-1909-5p/GPX4 axis was implicated. Modulation of miR-1909-5p in these cells revealed its regulatory role over GPX4 levels and subsequent endothelial ferroptosis. In vivo, miR-1909-5p suppression reduced ferroptosis and mitigated AD progression in the murine model.
CONCLUSIONS: Our data underscore the involvement of the miR-1909-5p/GPX4 axis in the pathogenesis of nicotine-induced endothelial ferroptosis in AD.

Subjects will perform a variation of the TNTA task, where the Learning phase also have only two blocks of 12-image pairs. However, in this case the TNT phase is replaced by a Forced-Choice Reaction Time (FCRT) task, during which the participants only must categorize alcoholic and non-alcoholic images answering to the question "What type of beverage was there in the image?" (answer: "Alcoholic drink" or "Non-alcoholic drink"); thus, they do not have to inhibit the memories related to the alcoholic images. During this phase, sham neuromodulation will be performed using the same montage of the active tDCS. The electric current fade in during 15 seconds until reaching 2 mA, then is constant at 2 mA for 15 seconds and fade out for 15 seconds, while a sham memory inhibition CT is performed.
INTRODUCTION: Campylobacter spp. is the leading cause of bacterial enteritis in industrialized countries, but the literature about its recurrence is scarce. The objective of this study is to analyze a case series of recurrent campylobacteriosis in adult and pediatric patients.
METHODS: During a two-year period, the demographic, clinical and microbiological data were collected retrospectively from patients who met the clinical criteria of recurrent Campylobacter spp. gastroenteritis. Enteropathogens were identified by a multiplex-PCR gastrointestinal pathogens panel. When Campylobacter spp. was detected, the stool sample was cultured in specific medium and tested for antibiotic susceptibility.
RESULTS: Twenty-four (2.03%) out of 1180 patients with Campylobacter spp. positive-PCR met the inclusion criteria. Thirteen patients suffered from underlying diseases, and 11 had no known risk factors but they were all pediatric patients. From the 24 patients were documented 70 episodes. One patient had two episodes of bacteremia. Coinfection/co-detection with other enteropathogens was found in 10 patients being Giardia intestinalis the most frequent. Twelve (22.6%) out of 53 isolates were resistant to macrolides. One patient had two isolates of multi-drug resistant C. coli, only susceptible to gentamicin.
CONCLUSION: The results suggest the presence of underlying diseases in most adult patients with recurrent Campylobacter spp. infections, particularly primary immunodeficiency. Most of the pediatric patients with recurrent campylobacteriosis lack of known risk factors. Concomitant detection with other enteropathogens was common. The resistance to macrolides was much higher as compared with previous reported rates.

The efficacy of FORTEO for treating glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis was assessed in a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial of 428 patients (19% men, 81% women) aged 22 to 89 years (mean 57 years) treated with ≥5 mg/day prednisone or equivalent for a minimum of 3 months. The duration of the trial was 18 months. In the trial 214 patients were treated with FORTEO 20 mcg given subcutaneously once daily. In the FORTEO group, the baseline median glucocorticoid dose was 7.5 mg/day and the baseline median duration of glucocorticoid use was 1.5 years. The mean (SD) baseline lumbar spine BMD was 0.85 ± 0.13 g/cm2 and lumbar spine BMD T-score was –2.5 ± 1 (number of standard deviations below the mean BMD value for healthy adults). A total of 30% of patients had prevalent vertebral fracture(s) and 43% had prior non-vertebral fracture(s). The patients had chronic rheumatologic, respiratory or other diseases that required sustained glucocorticoid therapy. All patients received 1000 mg of calcium plus 800 IU of vitamin D supplementation per day. 

Because of differences in mechanism of action (anabolic vs. anti-resorptive) and lack of clarity regarding differences in BMD as an adequate predictor of fracture efficacy, data on the active comparator are not presented. 

Effect on Bone Mineral Density (BMD)

In patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, FORTEO increased lumbar spine BMD compared with baseline at 3 months through 18 months of treatment. In patients treated with FORTEO, the mean percent change in BMD from baseline to endpoint was 7.2% at the lumbar spine, 3.6% at the total hip, and 3.7% at the femoral neck (p <0.001 all sites). The relative treatment effects of FORTEO were consistent in subgroups defined by gender, age, geographic region, body mass index, underlying disease, prevalent vertebral fracture, baseline glucocorticoid dose, prior bisphosphonate use, and glucocorticoid discontinuation during trial.
BACKGROUND: Early identification of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and advancing kidney insufficiency, followed by specialist care, can decelerate the progression of the disease. However, awareness of the importance and possible consequences of kidney insufficiency is low among doctors and patients. Since kidney insufficiency can be asymptomatic even in higher stages, it is often not even known to those belonging to risk groups. This study aims to clarify whether, for hospitalised patients with advanced chronic kidney disease, a risk-based appointment with a nephrology specialist reduces disease progression.
METHODS: The target population of the study is hospitalised CKD patients with an increased risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), more specifically with an ESRD risk of at least 9% in the next 5 years. This risk is estimated by the internationally validated Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE). The intervention consists of a specific appointment with a nephrology specialist after the hospital stay, while control patients are discharged from the hospital as usual. Eight medical centres include participants according to a stepped-wedge design, with randomised sequential centre-wise crossover from recruiting patients into the control group to recruitment to the intervention. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is measured for each patient during the hospital stay and after 12 months within the regular care by the general practitioner. The difference in the change of the eGFR over this period is compared between the intervention and control groups and considered the primary endpoint.
DISCUSSION: This study is designed to evaluate the effect of risk-based appointments with nephrology specialists for hospitalised CKD patients with an increased risk of end-stage renal disease. If the intervention is proven to be beneficial, it may be implemented in routine care. Limitations will be examined and discussed. The evaluation will include further endpoints such as non-guideline-compliant medication, economic considerations and interviews with contributing physicians to assess the acceptance and feasibility of the intervention.
TRIAL REGISTRATION: German Clinical Trials Register DRKS00029691 . Registered on 12 September 2022.
A touch-control bedside ultrasonic device comprises a supporting device, a floating device and a touch-control device. The touch device is provided with a touch screen. The floating device comprises at least two connecting arms which are sequentially connected end to end, wherein the at least two connecting arms are in telescopic connection. The connecting arm located on the outermost side of one end of the floating arm is a first connecting arm, and the connecting arm located on the outermost side of the other end of the floating arm is a second connecting arm. The first connecting arm is rotatably connected to the support device to enable the floating device to rotate relative to the support device. The touch device is rotatably connected with the second connecting arm, so that the touch device can rotate relative to the floating device. The two adjacent connecting arms in the floating device can stretch out and draw back, and the two ends of the floating device are respectively connected with the supporting device and the touch device in a rotating mode, so that the stretching and rotating range of the whole floating device is large, the movement of multiple positions can be realized, and the requirement of doctors on more-cross-bed operation is met.
Nonclinical studies of test articles (TAs) in nonhuman primates are often designed to assess both biodistribution and toxicity. For this purpose, studies commonly use intravenous perfusion of ice-cold (2°C-8°C) saline to facilitate measurements of TA-associated nucleic acids and proteins, after which tissues undergo later fixation by immersion for histological processing and microscopic evaluation. Intriguingly, minimal apoptosis/single cell necrosis (A/SCN) of randomly distributed neural cells is evident in the cerebral cortex and less often the hippocampus in animals from all groups, including vehicle-treated controls. Affected cells exhibit end-stage features such as cytoplasmic hypereosinophilia, nuclear condensation or fragmentation, and shape distortions, so their lineage(s) generally cannot be defined; classical apoptotic bodies are exceedingly rare. In addition, A/SCN is not accompanied by glial reactions, leukocyte infiltration/inflammation, or other parenchymal changes. The severity is minimal in controls but may be slightly exacerbated (to mild) by TA that accumulate in neural cells. One plausible hypothesis explaining this A/SCN exacerbation is that cold shock (perhaps complicated by concurrent tissue acidity and hypoxia) drives still-viable but TA-stressed cells to launch a self-directed death program. Taken together, these observations indicate that A/SCN in brain processed by cold saline perfusion with delayed immersion fixation represents a procedural artifact and not a TA-related lesion.
