Background and Aims: Data for small-area studies in Italy are available at census tract and municipality level. The aim of the present contribution is to ascertain whether an ad hoc developed Deprivation Index (DI) can adjust for deprivation in SENTIERI, a multicentric small-area study at municipality level in Italian Polluted Sites – IPS. Methods: The DI adopted in SENTIERI is based on four so...

High rates of respiratory symptoms (14%) and new-onset asthma in previously healthy soldiers (6.6%) have been reported among military personnel post-deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan. The term Iraq/Afghanistan War-Lung Injury (IAW-LI) is used to describe the constellation of respiratory diseases related to hazards of war, such as exposure to burning trash in burn pits, improvised explosive dev...

We evaluated the safety and possible efficacy of large doses of the heparinoid ORG 10172 in 57 patients with acute or progressing ischemic stroke. Patients received a loading bolus of the drug followed by a maintenance intravenous infusion for 7 days. The plasma level of ORG 10172 was monitored by the degree of inhibition of coagulation factor Xa. In general, the drug was well tolerated and few...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to determine the validity of the maximal distance-electromyography (Dmax-EMG) method for estimating physical working capacity at fatigue threshold (PWCFT ). METHODS Twenty-one men and women (age 22.9 ± 3.0 years) volunteered to perform 12 sessions of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) over 4 weeks. Before and after HIIT training, a graded exerci...

A microwave-assisted synthesis of cisplatin, cis-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2], has been developed and optimized on both a 0.2 and 0.05 millimolar scale. The optimized synthetic procedure was modeled after the Lebedinskii-Golovnya method and is suitable for incorporating the radionuclide, Pt, into cisplatin for biological studies. Highest yields (47 %) and purity are obtained using a K2PtCl4:NH4OAc:KCl molar r...

Adult worms of the blood-feeding monogenean parasite Neoheterobothrium hirame, which cause anemia in the Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus, attach to the host fish by embedding their posterior part deeply into the host tissue. To investigate the possibility that cellular responses of the host fish can eliminate N. hirame, flounder were experimentally infected with N. hirame larvae and re...
