Aim To gather data regarding factors predicting responsiveness to pasireotide in acromegaly. Patients and methods SSTR2a, SSTR3, SSTR5, AIP, Ki-67 the adenoma subtype were evaluated somatotroph adenomas from 39 patients treated post-operatively with somatostatin analogues (SSAs). A standardized SSTR scoring system was applied (scores 0–3). All received first-generation SSAs, 11 resistant subsequently LAR. Results None of negative or cytoplasmic-only SSTR2a expression 0–1) responsive as...
Abstract Everolimus is a valid therapeutic option for neuroendocrine tumors (NETs); however, data in real-world setting outside regulatory trials are sparse. The aim of this study was to determine everolimus tolerability and efficacy, relation previous treatments, compassionate use program. A total 169 patients with advanced progressive NETs treated were enrolled, including 85 pancreatic (pNETs) 84 nonpancreatic (non-pNETs). Previous treatments included somatostatin analogs (92.9%), peptide...
Background: Venous Access Devices (VADs) are the most used devices in COVID-19 patients. Objective: Identify VADs implanted, catheter related thrombosis (CRT), catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI), and accidental remove of both positive free Successive analysis was conducted comparing patients with inverse probability propensity score weights using simple regression to account for these two confounders (peripheral tip as central/peripheral hospitalization no/yes). Methods: This...
Abstract Introduction Somatotroph pituitary tumours are often resistant to first-generation somatostatin analogues and can invade the surrounding structures, limiting chances of curative surgery. Recent studies suggested that immune microenvironment pro-angiogenic factors influence neuroendocrine tumour prognosis. In this study, we aimed investigate prognostic role cell-specific markers endocan, a proteoglycan involved in neoangiogenesis cell adhesion, cohort acromegaly patients who...
The relationships between hillslope and fluvial processes were studied in a mountainous area of the Northern Apennines (Italy) where intermittent landslide activity has interacted for long time with river morphodynamics. aim study was to analyse such two sites Scoltenna catchment. analysed detail monitored through time. A long-term analysis carried out based on multitemporal photointerpretation aerial photos. Slope morphological changes land use modifications since 1954 detected compared...
Background: During coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Helmet Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (h-CPAP) has been widely used to treat Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (AHRF). In COVID-19 patients undergoing h-CPAP a simple short peripheral catheter could be insufficient. According the European Recommendations for Proper Indication and Use of Peripheral venous access consensus, stable Vascular Access Device is indicated intravenous treatment compatible with route scheduled...
Combination therapy with both basal insulin (BI) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) is an effective treatment in patients uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The recent development release of a fixed-ratio combination slow-release degludec the GLP-1RA liraglutide (IDegLira) represents improvement to this therapy. We have conducted real-world evidence study Italian T2DM evaluate whether encouraging clinical trial results obtained IDegLira, which became...
Gestational diabetes treatment requires several outpatient consultations from diagnosis until delivery in order to prevent hyperglycaemia, which is associated with maternal and fetal complications. There limited evidence the literature about telemedicine superiority improving pregnancy outcomes for women gestational diabetes. The primary aim of study was evaluate outcomes, while secondary estimate degree satisfaction treatment, comparing versus care.
Geophysical site investigations have been performed in association with deployment of a dense array 95 3-component seismometers on the Cavola landslide Northern Apennines. The aim is to study propagation seismic waves heterogeneous medium through comparison observation and modelling. small-aperture (130 m×56 m) operated continuously for three months 2004. consists clay body sliding over mudstone-shale basement, has record historical activity, including destruction small village 1960. include...

Secondary outcomes were...
Il supporto nutrizionale del paziente con Insufficienza Renale Cronica (IRC) in trattamento conservativo consente di prevenire/controllare le principali alterazioni metaboliche della malattia, raggiungere e/o mantenere uno stato soddisfacente posticipando il sostitutivo (dialisi o trapianto). Quando la dieta ipoproteica richiede l'introduzione alimenti speciali ipoproteici, dietista deve effettuare un monitoraggio particolarmente attento. presente studio ha valutato gradimento degli...
Nutritional support of the patient with Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) in conservative treatment allows to prevent/control main metabolic disease as well achieve and/or maintain a satisfactory nutritional status postponing replacement therapy (dialysis or transplantation). When low-protein diet requires introduction special foods, dietitian must particularly close monitoring. This study evaluated satisfaction foods sample 100 patients CRF related our Unit Dietetics years 2009–2012, and compared...
