To evaluate the degree and causes of underdiagnosis incisional biopsy in oral potentially malignant lesions (PML).Cross-sectional retrospective study.All pathology slides (incisional resection specimen) from 46 patients with PML were reviewed scored blind. The provisional diagnosis was considered order to provide or overdiagnosis according whether this score lower higher than final diagnosis.Concordance between scores for diagnoses compared unreviewed assessments.Upon review, significantly...
Acanthosis nigricans (AN), tripe palms (TP) and the sign of Leser‐Trélat (LT) may be seen with presence malignancy. have a mucocutaneous localization involving oral mucosa papillomatous verrucous lesions usually on lips buccal mucosa. These paraneoplastic dermatoses are generally linked intra‐abdominal malignancy, most often gastric adenocarcinoma. Improvement associated after treatment malignancy has been frequently observed. We report case 53‐year‐old man suffering from advanced...
Plant water resource management is one of the main future challenges to fight recent climatic changes. The knowledge plant content could be indispensable for saving strategies. Terahertz spectroscopic techniques are particularly promising as a non-invasive tool measuring leaf content, thanks high predominance contribution total absorption. quantum cascade lasers (THz QCL) most successful sources THz radiation. Here we present new method which improves precision by combining transmission...
The potential role of the COVID-19 vaccine and infection to induce autoimmunity is currently underestimated despite literature emphasizing arthralgia as a common adverse event. We aimed study impact rheumatological complications post-COVID-19 (PC) (PCV), comparing undifferentiated arthritis (UA) Polymyalgia Rheumatica, Horton's Arteritis (PMR-HA) isolated UA with "connective-like" accompanying symptoms. retrospectively included 109 patients at least 6 months follow-up, analyzing serum...
Cross-talk between cells and cytokines in peri-implant tissue is largely unknown. The immune response the gingival mucosa appears to favor implant integration over rejection, since titanium-implant-retained overdentures show long-term success. This study evaluates pro-inflammatory (interleukin [IL]-2, interferon [IFN]-γ, IL-12) anti-inflammatory (IL-4, IL-10, transforming growth factor [TGF]-β1) cytokine mRNA expression morphometry soft from patients before during treatment with Brånemark...
To investigate whether the expression of interferon (IFN)-inducible gene IFI16 is inversely related to proliferative activity in vivo, we compared immunohistochemical reactivity a series head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) with their proliferation index cycle regulator pRb. As human papillomavirus (HPV) infection manifested by changes function or level host genes such as IFN-inducible genes, also investigated presence HPV DNA determine cancers associated can be distinguished from...
Water availability is a major limiting factor in plant productivity and plays key role species distribution over given area. New technologies, such as terahertz quantum cascade lasers (THz-QCLs) have proven to be non-invasive, effective, accurate tools for measuring monitoring leaf water content. This study explores the feasibility of using an advanced THz-QCL device absolute content Corylus avellana L., Laurus nobilis Ostryacarpinifolia Scop., Quercus ilex suber Vitis vinifera L. (cv....
This split-mouth study investigated the correlation of qualitative and quantitative bacterial composition in dental plaque around clinically healthy periodontal peri-implant subgingival sites with levels selected pro- anti-inflammatory cytokines inflammatory infiltrate soft tissue surrounding a implant natural tooth same patient. Nine patients, all good health non-smokers, were studied. All patients highly motivated terms oral hygiene had teeth at least one implant. After three sessions...
A new geological-structural map of the southern Serre Massif (SM), in south-central part Calabrian-Peloritani-Orogen (CPO), is provided. CPO a ribbon-like microplates puzzle, originally belonging to European Variscan Belt and, later involved into Alpine geodynamics central Mediterranean Area. The SM represents one key basement relicts, because its exhumation mechanisms as well for absence any metamorphic overprint. This has aim better delineate sequence blasto-deformational relationships...
The development of new non-invasive approaches able to recognize defective food is currently a lively field research. In particular, simple and non-destructive method hazelnuts, such as cimiciato-infected ones, in real-time still missing. This study has been designed detect the presence damaged hazelnuts. To this aim, measurement setup based on terahertz (THz) radiation developed. Images sample 150 hazelnuts have acquired low THz range by compact portable active imaging system equipped with...
The application of sound wave technology to different plant species has revealed that variations in the Hz, pressure intensity, treatment duration, and type setup source significantly impact performance. A study conducted on cotton plants treated with Plant Acoustic Frequency Technology (PAFT) highlighted improvements across various growth metrics. In particular, samples showed increases height, size fourth expanded leaf from final one, count branches carrying bolls, quantity weight...
