RUPTURE OF THE ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE: IS CHLAMYDIA PNEUMONIAE A POSSIBLE AGENT?
BACKGROUND: The natural history of atherosclerosis has not clearly been elucidated yet. Some works reported that flogosis plays a role in plaque instability. Why does this inflammatory process start? We investigated the correlation between Chlamydia pneumoniae acute infection and plaque rupture. METHODS: We compared blood concentrations of IgM anti-Chlamydia pneumoniae in patients affected by acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and in patients affected by stable angina. RESULTS: Our results showed a minimal statistical difference, with a more positive value in patients with AMI. Subsequently, the group affected by AMI was divided into two subgroups with and without plaque rupture: the subgrou…

Two cases of tako-tsubo cardiomyophaty in Caucasians
Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is a recently described disease characterized by chest pain, transient left ventricular dysfunction and specific electrocardiographic changes. The disease takes its name from the typical left apical ballooning observed at left ventriculogram. Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy was first described by Sato in 1990. Since then sporadic cases were reported by Japanese authors, and only a few European publications are available. We describe 2 cases of patients affected by this syndrome.

ATRIAL FIBRILLATION AND MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT: WHAT CORRELATION?
ATRIAL FIBRILLATION AND MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT: WHAT CORRELATION? Aim. Atrial fibrillation (AF), in addition to macroembolic complications, may also produce multiple cerebral ischemic areas due to microembolic phenomena and transient hypoperfusion, eventually leading to a progressive cognitive impairment and even to acclaimed vascular dementia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of cognitive impairment in patients with AF. The reported results concern data obtained at the moment of recruitment. Methods. The authors studied 42 patients with a history of non valvular AF (paroxysmal, persistent, recurrent or permanent) and 40 homogenous controls in sinus rhythm without pre…

MULTIFOCAL ATHEROSCLEROTIC DISEASE: A CASE –REPORT
Il regime di mantenimento potenzia l’efficacia della chemioprofilassi endovescicale precoce e induzione settimanale nei confronti delle recidive degli uroteliomi vescicali a rischio intermedio.? Risultati di uno studio multicentrico.
SCOPO DEL LAVORO: Malgrado l’efficacia della chemioterapia endovescicale eseguita precocemente dopo la resezione endoscopica di uroteliomi vescicali NMI sia stata confermata da numerosi studi multicentrici, ancora dubbio rimane il ruolo di un ulteriore schema terapeutico di mantenimento nel potenziarne l’efficacia. Ciò rimane ancora più incerto se alla singola instillazione segue un ciclo di instillazioni settimanali. Scopo dello studio è stato valutare l’utilità di uno schema di mantenimento mensile per un anno rispetto alla sola induzione settimanale per 6 settimane in pazienti sottoposti a TUR e chemioprofilassi precoce con epirubicina. MATERIALI E METODI: Sono stati randomizzati 577 paz…
