Testina celtica in bronzo da Casteggio
A Celtic bronze bearded head of Casteggio.
A rare bronze bearded head found during a recent excavation of ancient Clastidium is presented in this article. The closest stylistic similarity make one suppose that it belonged to an anthropomorphic sword handle dated between the end of the second-beginning of the first century B.C.Petite tête celtique en bronze de Casteggio.
Dans cet article, on présente une rare petite tête en bonze retrouvée dans des fouilles récentes dans l’emplacement de l’ancien Clastidium. L’objet, qui est comparable aux poignées anthropomorphes des épées laténiennes, est sûrement un produit d’importation et il est datable, pour des raisons stylistiques, entre la fin du IIe et le début du Ier siècle avant

Thalidomide plus intermediate-dose dexametasone is an effective but toxic treatment for patients with AL (primary) amyloydosis
Based on the efficacy of thalidomide in multiple myeloma and on its synergy with dexamethasone on myeloma plasma cells, we evaluated the combination of thalidomide (100 mg/d, with 100-mg increments every 2 weeks, up to 400 mg) and dexamethasone (20 mg on days 1-4) every 21 days in 31 patients with primary amyloidosis (AL) whose disease was refractory to or had relapsed after first-line therapy. Eleven (35%) patients tolerated the 400 mg/d thalidomide dose. Overall, 15 (48%) patients achieved hematologic response, with 6 (19%) complete remissions and 8 (26%) organ responses. Median time to response was 3.6 months (range, 2.5-8.0 months). Treatment-related toxicity was frequent (65%), and symptomatic bradycardia was a common (26%) adverse reaction. The combination of thalidomide and dexamethasone is rapidly effective and may represent a valuable second-line treatment for AL
