Therapeutic Effects of Vitamin D in Asthma and Allergy
No full textIn recent years, low vitamin D status has been proposed as a putative risk factor for allergic diseases. A growing body of literature reports low vitamin D levels in atopic patients and supports an association between vitamin D deficiency and risk of adverse asthma and allergies outcomes. Therefore, it has been speculated that vitamin D supplementation may either prevent or reduce the risk of allergic diseases. Birth cohort studies addressing the role of vitamin D intake during pregnancy have shown conflicting results regarding allergy outcomes in offspring. Currently, only a few studies have tried to supplement vitamin D in asthmatic patients, often as an add-on therapy to standard asthma controller medications, and results are not all consistent. There is emerging data to show that vitamin D can enhance the antiinflammatory effects of glucocorticoids and potentially be used as adjuvant therapy in steroid-resistant asthma. Recent in vivo data suggest that vitamin D supplementation may also reduce the severity of atopic dermatitis. This review examines the existing relevant literature focusing on vitamin D supplementation in the treatment of allergic diseases

The Legal Instrument of the Communication and Its Incidence in Promoting the Unity of Europe
No full textLa personalità giuridica dell’Unione Europea dopo il Trattato di Lisbona e la “pseudo” personalità federale dell’Italia
No full textThe Treaty of Lisbon positively solves the problem of the recognition of the legal personality of the European Union. This is an importantresult that a part of the doctrine has come into being since the Maastricht Treaty and that the European Constitution was careful to make it its own. But, the non-ratification of the latter has revived the question that was precisely answered by the Lisbon Treaty. Such recognition, while leaving unresolved some issues closely related to it, favours several positive effects, such as the strengthening of the feeling of belonging to the EU by European citizens, an aspect that is at the basis of any federal yearning. In a historical moment, in which the European integration process seemed to have stopped because of the weak political response of the EU to the economic crisis, the efforts of the Italian Legislature
are being directed at creating a domestic federalism (whose aspects at the moment are very uncertain) and not to strengthening the European integration process to which Italy, as a founder member of the European Community, has shown to pursue on several occasions
