A new simplified single-filter assay for "in vitro" evaluation of chemotaxis of 51Cr-labeled polymorphonuclear leukocytes
No full textA new simplified radioassay for measuring polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) chemotaxis is proposed using 51Cr-labeled cells and a single-filter system. The technique offers all the advantages described for the double-filter radioassay and permits a reproducible measurement of random locomotion, chemokinesis and chemotaxis. Moreover the single-filter radioassay utilizes commercially available and disposable chambers gathered in a multichamber apparatus; this makes the method very easy to learn and rapid to perform

No full textJuvenile hemochromatosis (JH) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of iron metabolism, genetically heterogeneous. In JH, symptomatic organ involvement occurs as early as the second decade of life. Heart failure and/or arrhythmias are the most frequent causes of death. Phlebotomy is the safest, most effective, and most economic therapeutic approach in hemochromatosis patients but is not indicated during the treatment of severe congestive heart failure with unstable hemodynamic status. The treatment of iron overload in these prohibitive clinical situations has to be carried out using iron chelators. We report a case of heart failure in the setting of unrecognized juvenile hemochromatosis successfully treated by the simultaneous administration of deferoxamine and deferiprone. To our knowledge, this is the first patient affected by JH treated with combined chelation regimen
Collezionismo e letteratura di viaggio: Paolo Giovio tra viaggiatori e cosmografi
No full textIl saggio mette in evidenza la relazione di Giovio con la letteratura di viaggio europea in modo particolare con i cosmografi e con i viaggiatori. L'attenzione alla dimensione spaziale rivela l'acuta sensibilità dello storico comasco nei confronti di aree poco note. Lo spirito geografico di Giovio venne, infatti, considerato un modello di riferimento fino ad Ortelio e appare come un vero e proprio sistema di catalogazione del reale
