Il progesterone e la minaccia d'aborto: razionale, pratica ed evidenza
2007
Xª In questo lavoro abbiamo rivisto ilpossibile ruolo della somministrazione di progesterone nella minaccia d’aborto, attraverso la disamina della funzione dell’ormone nel periodo pe-riconcezionale, del razionale della somministrazione, della pratica clinica attuale e della Medicina Basata sull’Evidenza.
Medroxyprogesterone acetate: steady-state pharmacokinetics bioequivalence of two oral formulations
1989
Two micronized oral formulations of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) (Farlutal and Clinovir) were compared in order to evaluate their relative bioavailability. Sixteen female patients with metastatic breast cancer were entered in a randomized cross-over study on 500-mg MPA tablets repeatedly administered (twice daily for 20 days). At the steady state, similar mean +/- SD serum levels of MPA were obtained (131 +/- 44 ng/ml for Farlutal and 136 +/- 45 ng/ml for Clinovir) and the two formulations proved to be bioequivalent (confidence interval at a significance level of 0.95 = 93%-107%).
Eubacteria and archaea communities in seven mesophile anaerobic digester plants in Germany
2015
Background Only a fraction of the microbial species used for anaerobic digestion in biogas production plants are methanogenic archaea. We have analyzed the taxonomic profiles of eubacteria and archaea, a set of chemical key parameters, and biogas production in samples from nine production plants in seven facilities in Thuringia, Germany, including co-digesters, leach-bed, and sewage sludge treatment plants. Reactors were sampled twice, at a 1-week interval, and three biological replicates were taken in each case. Results A complex taxonomic composition was found for both eubacteria and archaea, both of which strongly correlated with digester type. Plant-degrading Firmicutes as well as Bacte…

Il rigo musicale in fondo alla 'Bataille d'Annezin' e i dispositivi di chiusura della lassa epica
2015
The discovery, made by E. Langlois in 1910, of a notated musical staff at the end of a little-known parodic laisse probably written within the 13th century by an otherwise unknown Thomas de Bailleul (MS London, BL, Royal 20 A XVII) immediately raised the interest of medieval musicologists, who have debated its function and interpretation until recent times, whereas romance philologists haven’t payed due attention to this intriguing and unique musical evidence, undoubtedly related to an Old French chanson de geste. In this paper I shall defend G. Schläger’s forgotten hypothesis that the musical staff could well represent a vocal-ized ‘short line’ (petit vers), arguing that this question shou…
Effect of two xeno-hormones, genistein and vinclozolin on development and exocrines and endocrines functions of submandibular salivary glands of Wist…
2012
The salivary glands are mixed glands: saliva (exocrine product) is involved inmaintaining oral homeostasis whereas endocrine secretions (eg growth factors) have aphysiological role (gametogenesis, osteogenesis, hypertension ..). In mammals, they displaysexual dimorphism suggesting a possible susceptibility to xeno-hormones.This manuscript presents the action of genistein (phytoestrogen) and/or vinclozolin (antiandrogenic)on the submandibular gland (SM) rats when performing an early exposure via themother (pregnancy, lactation) or an exposure during the growth period (from weaning toadulthood). The SM glands, collected at immature and young adult ages, have been analyzedaccording histologica…
Association of low-penetrance alleles with male breast cancer risk and clinicopathological characteristics: results from a multicenter study in Italy
2013
It is well-known that male breast cancer (MBC) susceptibility is mainly due to high-penetrance BRCA1/2 mutations. Here, we investigated whether common low-penetrance breast cancer (BC) susceptibility alleles may influence MBC risk in Italian population and whether variant alleles may be associated with specific clinicopathological features of MBCs. In the frame of the Italian Multicenter Study on MBC, we genotyped 413 MBCs and 745 age-matched male controls at 9 SNPs annotating known BC susceptibility loci. By multivariate logistic regression models, we found a significant increased MBC risk for 3 SNPs, in particular, with codominant models, for rs2046210/ESR1 (OR = 1.71; 95 % CI: 1.43–2.05;…
Population-based study of breast cancer survival in Cote d'Or (France): prognostic factors and relative survival.
2007
Abstract Background Few population-based studies have reported jointly analyses of relative survival according to the following prognostic factors: tumour–node–metastasis (TNM) stage, age, number of examined and positive nodes, hormonal status, histological Scarff, Bloom and Richardson (SBR) grade, tumour extension, hormone receptor status and tumour multifocal status. Patients and methods Data on female invasive breast cancer were provided by the Cote d’Or breast cancer registry. The Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test were used to estimate and compare the survival probability at 1, 5, 10 and 15 years. The effect of prognostic factors on survival was assessed with crude and relative mult…
An evaluation of the impact of technical bias on the concordance rate between primary and recurrent tumors in breast cancer.
2012
Abstract Purpose Whether or not to biopsy the metastasis in recurrent breast cancer has become mired in controversy. Several studies have shown an important discordance of the immunohistochemical (IHC) determinations for ER, PR and HER2 between primary (PT) and recurrent tumors (RT). Yet it remains unknown within this what impact technical issues have. The aim of our study was to assess whether technical variability might have an impact on the concordance between PT and RT. Methods IHC determinations in paired biopsies from PT and RT were compared under routine vs study conditions. In the former, pathological analysis reproduced the conditions used in the routine of a University Pathology D…
Triple-negative breast cancer: Molecular features, pathogenesis, treatment and current lines of research
2010
Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease with different morphologies, molecular profiles, clinical behaviour and response to therapy. The triple negative is a particular type of breast cancer defined by absence of oestrogen and progesterone receptor expression as well as absence of ERBB2 amplification. It is characterized by its biological aggressiveness, worse prognosis and lack of a therapeutic target in contrast with hormonal receptor positive and ERBB2+ breast cancers. Given these characteristics, triple-negative breast cancer is a challenge in today's clinical practice. A new breast cancer classification emerged recently in the scientific scene based in gene expression profiles. The ne…
