Abstract Background Aim of the present study is to describe characteristics COVID-19-related deaths and compare clinical phenotype course occurring in adults (<65 years) older (≥65 years). Method Medical charts 3,032 patients dying with COVID-19 Italy (368 aged < 65 years 2,664 ≥65 were revised extract information on demographics, preexisting comorbidities, in-hospital complications leading death. Results Older presented a higher number comorbidities compared those <65...
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia is a genetic disease characterized by teleangiectasias involving virtually every organ. There are limited data in the literature regarding natural history of liver vascular malformations and their associated morbidity mortality. This prospective cohort study sought to assess outcome involvement hereditary patients. We analyzed 16 years surveillance from tertiary referral center Italy. considered for inclusion this 502 consecutive Italian patients at risk...
Various countries have instituted risk governance measures to control and minimize the risks of chemicals at national international levels. Activities typically include assessment based on a) hazard exposure assessments; b) setting limits production, use, emissions chemicals; c) enforcement regulations; d) monitoring effectiveness taken. These steps largely depend chemical analysis access pure reference standards. However, except for specific highly regulated categories chemicals, such...
This study summarises the results of levels 21 perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in 50 selected pooled samples representing 15 food commodities with special focus on those animal origin, as meat, seafood, fish, milk, dairy products and hen eggs, which are commonly consumed various European markets, e.g. Czech, Italian, Belgian Norwegian. A new, rapid sample preparation approach based QuEChERS extraction procedure was applied. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled to tandem...
The dietary exposure to selected PFAAs was estimated in four European states (Belgium, the Czech Republic, Italy and Norway) representing Western, Southern, Eastern Northern Europe. harmonised sampling programme designed Union project PERFOOD targeted at identifying seven PFAAs, including perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) perfluorooctanoic (PFOA), food items that are most important both terms of consumption based on known high contamination patterns. average for adults (18-64 years)...
Circular feeds, such as grain dry distillers, citrus pulp, cane molasses, and potatoes peels, are co-products of biomass processes. They currently proposed in animal nutrition to improve the environmental economic sustainability food production chain. In this paper, we report a case study involving fipronil, pesticide not authorized for agriculture within EU, but used Americas, Eastern Europe, Asia. Fipronil was found at mean level 0.49 mg/kg, distiller batch administered dairy cows. This...
Abstract A statistical procedure has been developed to derive a screening value from an observational study related the developmental toxicity observed in loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) eggs exposed long chain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). dataset of 41 nests which hatching rate was inversely correlated with increase PFAS concentration unhatched processed via categorical regression approach. After outliers identification removal, analysis tested relationships outcomes...
ABSTRACT Top soil improvers (TSIs) and reused water from municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) represent useful sustainable sources of organic carbon nutrients for agriculture. However, their regular use, emerging Escherichia coli enterophatotypes, particularly Shiga toxin‐producing E. (STEC), were responsible severe foodborne outbreaks contaminated ready‐to‐eat vegetables. We report the hazard characterization 31 top 15 irrigation samples different origins, sampled at farm level....
