Abstract Age-related cognitive impairment and dementia are an increasing societal burden. Epidemiological studies indicate that lifestyle factors, e.g. physical, social activities, correlate with reduced risk; moreover, positive effects on cognition of physical/cognitive training have been found in cognitively unimpaired elders. Less is known about effectiveness action mechanisms elders already suffering from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), a population at high risk for dementia. We...
Aiming to gain a detailed insight into the physiological mechanisms involved under extreme conditions, group of experienced ultra-marathon runners, performing mountain Tor des Géants® ultra-marathon: 330 km trail-run in Valle d'Aosta, 24000 m positive and negative elevation changes, was monitored. ROS production rate, antioxidant capacity, oxidative damage inflammation markers were assessed, adopting micro-invasive analytic techniques.Forty-six male athletes (45.04±8.75 yr, 72.6±8.4 kg,...
Telomere shortening is considered a cellular marker of health status and biological ageing. Exercise may influence the lifespan an individual by affecting telomere length (TL). However, it unclear whether different endurance exercise levels have beneficial or detrimental effects on aging. The aims study were to assess both chronic acute training TL after exceptional extreme trail race. was assessed in 20 athletes (17 males; age = 45.4 ± 9.2 years) 42 age- gender-matched sedentary controls...
COVID-19, the novel coronavirus affecting most part of worldwide countries since early 2020, is fast increasing its prevalence around world, representing a significant emergency for population and health systems at large. While proper treatments are being developed, in-depth studies concerning way diffusion necessary, in order to understand how virus actually spreading, through investigation on some socio-economic indicators various retrieved open-access data publicly available. The...
Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) are among the most frequent autoimmune disorders, with a multifactorial etiology in which both genetic and environmental determinants probably involved. Celiac disease (CeD) also represents public concern, given its increasing prevalence due to recent improvement of screening programs, leading detection silent subtypes. The two conditions may be closely associated common risk factors, including setting, changes composition diversity gut microbiota,...
Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are characterised by impairment in joint attention (JA), which has two components: the response to JA and initiation of JA. Literature suggests a correlation between neural circuitries, although this link is still largely unexplored ASD. In pilot study, we aimed at investigating correlates responding initiating high-functioning children with ASD evaluating changes brain function visual pattern after six months rehabilitative treatment using an...
