Human herpesvirus 8 and Kaposi sarcoma: how should we screen and manage the transplant recipient?
Purpose of reviewHHV-8-associated diseases are rare but potentially fatal in transplant recipients. Important differences exist in the distribution of HHV-8 seroprevalence, which might contribute to the lack of uniform approach to HHV-8. The aim of this review was to discuss recent updates in screening and management of HHV-8 after transplant.Recent findingsIncreasing attention has been given to the nonmalignant but potentially fatal inflammatory syndrome caused by HHV-8 in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. At-risk groups include HHV-8-IgG D+/R-transplant and HHV-8-positive recipients. Severe cases of donor-derived HHV-8 disease, mainly Kaposi sarcoma, frequently without skin involvement and some diagnosed at autopsy, highlight the need to increase clinicians' awareness, to implement effective preemptive strategies and to perform rapid diagnosis. In HSCT setting, HHV-8-associated disorders are very rare.SummaryIdentification of SOT recipients at risk through reliable serology is warranted and the utility of preemptive management and HHV-8-DNA monitoring should be studied. Clinicians should be aware of severe nonmalignant disorders and of early post-SOT Kaposi sarcoma cases with lymph node or transplanted organ involvement in order to provide prompt diagnosis and treatment. No screening for HHV-8 is warranted after HSCT but rapid diagnosis and reduction of immunosuppression remain fundamental

Selected letters of Alessandra Strozzi
The letters of Alessandra Strozzi provide a vivid and spirited portrayal of life in fifteenth-century Florence. Among the richest autobiographical materials to survive from the Italian Renaissance, the letters reveal a woman who fought stubbornly to preserve her family's property and position in adverse circumstances, and who was an acute observer of Medicean society. Her letters speak of political and social status, of the concept of honor, and of the harshness of life, including the plague and the loss of children. They are also a guide to Alessandra's inner life over a period of twenty-three years, revealing the pain and sorrow, and, more rarely, the joy and triumph, with which she responded to the events unfolding around her.This edition includes translations, in full or in part, of 35 of the 73 extant letters. The selections carry forward the story of Alessandra's life and illustrate the range of attitudes, concerns, and activities which were characteristic of their author
HIV infection with viro-immunological dissociation in a patient with polycystic kidney disease: Candidate for transplantation?
Here we describe the case of a HIV-infected patient with polycystic kidney disease and end stage renal diseases not transplantable due to the persistence of a CD4 count <200 notwithstanding a good virological response to highly active antiretroviral therapy and suggest that such limitation to kidney transplantation in such as cases might be bypassed
Challenging the author: Gavin Douglas's Eneados
Gavin Douglas’s Eneados, a translation into the “Scottis” tongue of Virgil’s Aeneid, completed in 1513 and first published in London in 1553, presents, as well as the translation of the additional thirteenth book by Maphaeus Vegius, original prologues and marginal notes to the text, rubrics and articulate conclusive material. The present paper analyses this complex paratext as evidence of Douglas’s almost philological attention to the original and his preoccupation with a faithful reproduction; it is also suggested that the models for his organization of the commentary might be both medieval (i.e., manuscripts such as Petrarch’s Virgilius Ambrosianus) and early modern, as in the case of editions of classical works: the most apt example being Jodocus Badius Ascensius’ edition of the Aeneid, printed in 1501. The Eneados thus stands on the threshold between manuscript and print, and might have indicated new possibilities of use of the printing medium in Scotland, and of the value of the translation of a classical text, had history not intervened with the Scottish defeat at Flodden Fields in 1513, which put a temporary stop both to the circulation of the Eneados and to the development of Scottish printing
Nicetas Nicaenus, De azymis
The RAP online repertorium offers the first comprehensive catalogue of polemical literature related to the schism between the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches from the 9th to the 16th century and can be described as an ideal continuation of the *Clavis Patrum*.
Each entry identifies the work (often unpublished or newly discovered in manuscript catalogs), lists its various titles (since medieval texts often lack stable titles), provides incipit and explicit (with possible variations), and examines the manuscript tradition and foliation (by reviewing catalogs or manuscripts, verifying dates, folios, etc.). It also includes relevant bibliography (critical editions and studies), identifies the author (using prosopographical studies, dictionaries, repertories, sigillography, etc.), and provides essential biographical details. Each work is classified by literary genre (e.g., treatise, dialogue), the corresponding Byzantine term, and the main polemical themes (e.g., Filioque, Azymes, Purgatory), and is assigned a unique RAP identification number.
