    Italiani in Sudan : le storie

    No full text
    In un viaggio che prende le mosse dal tempo dei Romani, questo volume per la prima volta racconta la presenza italiana in Sudan. I protagonisti di questo viaggio verso un paese per lungo tempo rimasto sconosciuto al mondo occidentale sono uomini e donne, esploratori, missionari, mercanti, pellegrini, soldati, diplomatici, condottieri, etc. Questo volume, che vuole riconsegnare un nome e un volto a molti di loro, il cui ricordo si era disperso nel tempo, nasca da una tenace, paziente e accurata ricerca di tracce sommerse, e ci restituisce una saga infinita di storie, di vite umili, semplici e laboriose, di imprese straordinarie, sublimi e commoventi, ma anche avventure impossibili, eroiche e a volte insensate

    Early-onset pure absence epilepsy: a distinct epileptic syndrome.

    No full text
    Early-onset pure absence epilepsy has not yet considered in the International League Against Epilepsy classification, but several reports have supported its existence as a distinct epileptic syndrome primarily manifesting with typical absences in early childhood. This review summarizes the current understanding on this epilepsy. Conclusions: Early-onset pure absence epilepsy is a distinct epilepsy characterized by absences starting from a few months to 4 years of age, normal early psychomotor development, good antiepileptic drug seizure control and normal intellectual outcome. © 2011 The Author(s)/Acta Pædiatrica © 2011 Foundation Acta Pædiatrica

    Telomere length and obesity

    Aim: To assess the telomere length in apparently healthy obese and normal-weight subjects. Methods: Seventy-six Caucasian subjects were chosen including 53 children (age 8.2 ± 3.5 years) and 23 adults (age 40.5 ± 8.4 years). Among these, 22 (12 children and 10 adults) were obese with a body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) > 2 SD above the norm. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), measured with a multiple frequency analyzer, was used to estimate body composition. DNA extraction from white blood cells was used to estimate the telomere length by detection of terminal restriction fragments (TRF). Results: No difference was found between the TRF lengths of obese and normal children. Obese adults had shorter TRF lengths than adults who were not obese (mean TRF length difference, -884.5; 95% confidence intervals -1727 to -41.8; t = 2.183; df = 17; p < 0.041). Conclusions: Obese adults have shorter telomeres than their normal-weight counterparts, while this phenomenon is not present in childhood. © 2008 The Author(s)
