Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent systematic evaluation of vitiligo and psoriasis comorbidity has not yet been reported in a large series of patients with vitiligo. OBJECTIVE To investigate the practical/clinical implications in subjects with both vitiligo and psoriasis compared to those with vitiligo alone. METHODS This was a case-control study on 463 vitiligo patients in our clinic from March 2008 to April 2011. Medical assessment was performed by dermatologists using the modified Vitiligo European Task Force form. RESULTS In an univariate analysis, inflammation/pruritus [odds ratio (OR) 2.42, P = 0.03], use of drugs that can induce psoriasis (OR 2.74, P = 0.01), a family history (FH) of psoriasis (OR 2.87, P = 0.02), cardiovascular disease (OR 5.70, P = 0.001), hypertension (OR 4.7, P = 0.006) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (OR 3.87, P = 0.004), were significantly correlated with patients exhibiting vitiligo and psoriasis comorbidity. A trend was found in personal history of cardiovascular disease in patients with both diseases (OR 2.99, P = 0.07). FH of vitiligo was significantly associated with patients having only vitiligo (OR 0.35, P = 0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that inflammation/pruritus in vitiligo macules (OR 2.56, P = 0.047) and a FH of cardiovascular disease (OR 4.07, P = 0.02) were the most significant predictors of patients having both psoriasis and vitiligo, while the presence of organ-specific autoantibodies (OR 0.24, P = 0.007) was significantly associated with patients having only vitiligo. CONCLUSION The presence of vitiligo and even mild psoriasis is significantly correlated with a family history of cardiovascular disease, a factor that requires greater attention and follow-up with respect to that necessary for vitiligo patients.

Abstract
Coronary-to-bronchial artery fistulae are the most common found in adulthood and have often been associated with bronchiectasis and other abnormalities of pulmonary parenchyma. In this study we describe an unusual case in which circumflex coronary artery-to-left bronchial artery fistula was associated with the presence of extensive aneurysmatic dilatation of thoracic arteries. <Learning objective: This report deals with the case of a coronary-to-bronchial artery fistula (CAF) as the cause of atypical angina in a patient with normal coronary arteries. The concomitant finding of aneurysmatic dilatation of thoracic arteries controindicated an invasive approach. Medical therapy with vasodilators and anti-anginal drugs was soon started proving to be efficacious in symptoms relief.>.

Abstract
At present, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a proven treatment option for patients with symptomatic degenerative aortic stenosis at high risk for conventional surgery. In countries where TAVI is currently performed, the number of procedures and centers involved has been continuously increasing. The present document from the Italian Society of Interventional Cardiology (SICI-GISE) aims to improve the available evidence and current consensus on this topic through the definition of training needs and knowledge base for both operators and centers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although non-segmental vitiligo is commonly considered an autoimmune disease, the possible differences between non-segmental vitiligo patients with and without autoimmune signals have not been clearly established. OBJECTIVE To perform a comparison of non-segmental vitiligo patients with autoimmune signals (AIS) vs. those without autoimmune signals (NAIS) in regards to clinical characteristics and toxic/drug exposure. METHODS 112 vitiligo patients were selected for a sex and age matched (1 : 1) case control study at an university based dermatology outpatient hospital specialized in pigmentary disorders. Medical assessment was performed by dermatologists using the modified Vitiligo European Task Force form and serological and clinical signs of autoimmunity were evaluated. RESULTS Disease duration, age of onset, patient history of cardiovascular disease, past smoking history, use of drugs, and consummation of goitrogenic foods were all significantly increased in the AIS group using McNemar's test for matched pairs. In our conditional regression model, the simultaneous presence of disease duration, use of prescription drugs, and consummation of goitrogenic foods were the best predictors of AIS vitiligo patients. CONCLUSION The evaluation of non-segmental vitiligo patients according to the presence vs. the absence of autoimmune signals allows us to correlate patients exhibiting autoimmune phenomenon with certain clinical characteristics, namely long disease duration, use of prescription drugs, and consumption of goitrogenic substances. In the presence of the aforementioned clinical profile, we suggest an evaluation of autoimmune signals.

Abstract
The abdominal aortic aneurysm is an irreversible dilatation of the artery and when this pathology is localized in the aortic district, the intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is present in approximately 75% of cases. The rupture risk of AAA is thought to be associated with increased levels of wall stress. In recent decades, finite element analysis (FEA) have been used to predict wall stresses in a patient-specific, noninvasive manner. However, FE simulations are mainly based on homogeneous behavior for ILT material. The purpose of this work was to investigate the biomechanical behavior of ILT and to derive an appropriate constitutive relation for ventral and posterior regions. Uniaxial tensile tests were carried out and histological investigations were performed on four fresh thrombi to correlate with the change in the mechanical properties. A second-order polynomial, large-strain, hyperelastic constitutive model was developed and used to fit the uniaxial tensile testing data for determination of the material parameters. Our results indicate that the microstructure of ILT differs between the ventral and dorsal region, with the area region characterized by a nonlinear behavior and the lateral posterior area stiffer than the budge region. The peak stretch values were (mean±SEM) 1·24±0·04 and 1·1±0·09 for the ventral and lateral posterior area of the ILT, respectively. The material models for the thrombi are in excellent agreement with the experimental data.

Abstract
Bacterial skin and soft tissues infections (SSTI) often determine acute disease and frequent emergency recovering, and they are one of the most common causes of infection among groups of different ages. Given the variable presentation of SSTI, a thorough assessment of their incidence and prevalence is difficult. The presence of patient-related (local or systemic) or environmental risk factors, along with the emergence of multi-drug resistant pathogens, can promote SSTI. These infections may present with a wide spectrum of clinical features and different severity, and can be classified according to various criteria. Many bacterial species can cause SSTI, but Gram-positive bacteria are the most frequently isolated, with a predominance of Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. The diagnosis of SSTI requires an extended clinical history, a thorough physical examination and a high index of suspicion. Early diagnosis is particularly important in complicated infections, which often require laboratory studies, diagnostic imaging and surgical exploration. SSTI management should conform to the epidemiology, the aetiology, the severity and the depth of the infection. Topical, oral or systemic antimicrobial therapy and drainage or debridement could be necessary, along with treatment of a significant underlying disease. This review discusses the epidemiology, the pathogenesis and the classification of bacterial SSTI, describes their associated risk factors and their clinical presentations. The authors provide a rational diagnostic and therapeutic approach to SSTI in respect of antibiotic resistance and currently available antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE The primary purpose of this study was to detect and quantify 3-iodothyronamine (T(1)AM), an endogenous biogenic amine related to thyroid hormone, in human blood. DESIGN T(1)AM, total T(3), and total T(4) were assayed in serum by a novel HPLC tandem mass spectrometry assay, which has already been validated in animal investigations, and the results were related to standard clinical and laboratory variables. SETTING AND PATIENTS The series included one healthy volunteer, 24 patients admitted to a cardiological ward, and 17 ambulatory patients suspected of thyroid disease, who underwent blood sampling at admission for routine diagnostic purposes. Seven patients were affected by type 2 diabetes, and six patients showed echocardiographic evidence of impaired left ventricular function. INTERVENTIONS No intervention or any patient selection was performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES serum T(1)AM, total and free T(3) and T(4), routine chemistry, routine hematology, and echocardiographic parameters were measured. RESULTS T(1)AM was detected in all samples, and its concentration averaged 0.219 ± 0.012 pmol/ml. The T(1)AM concentration was significantly correlated to total T(4) (r = 0.654, P < 0.001), total T(3) (r = 0.705, P < 0.001), glycated hemoglobin (r = 0.508, P = 0.013), brain natriuretic peptide (r = 0.543, P = 0.016), and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (r = 0.675, P < 0.001). In diabetic vs. nondiabetic patients T(1)AM concentration was significantly increased (0.232 ± 0.014 vs. 0.203 ± 0.006 pmol/ml, P = 0.044), whereas no significant difference was observed in patients with cardiac dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS T(1)AM is an endogenous messenger that can be assayed in human blood. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that circulating T(1)AM is produced from thyroid hormones and encourage further investigations on the potential role of T(1)AM in insulin resistance and heart failure.

Abstract
This is the case of a 77 year-old man with previous coronary by-pass grafting. After the occlusion of the saphenous vein graft to marginal branch, corrected by angioplasty and stenting with a bare metal stent (BMS), during the next 4 years he experienced multiple further episodes of in-stent restenosis of the first BMS. Angioplasty was performed each time. After 4 months since the last procedure, he had new episode of unstable angina. An EKG-gated, 64-row multislice CT (MSCT) examination was performed to evaluate the venous graft lumen, showing high-grade in-stent restenosis. Angiography confirmed the MSCT diagnosis, thus he underwent angioplasty and stenting with a drug eluting stent (DES). Thereafter, he remained stable for 4 years, when new anginal episodes led to a further coronary angiogram, showing progression of the atherosclerosic disease at the proximal and distal anastomosis of the venous graft; however, the previous implanted DES was patent. In the complex management of venous grafts restenosis, MSCT can be useful to help in detecting obstructive bypass graft disease. When revascularization is needed, DES have shown to be superior compared to BMS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current studies have treated a limited portion of the subjective aspects of vitiligo patients and have yet to elucidate possible psychological differences between those with autoimmune markers (AIM) with respect to those without autoimmune markers (NAIM). OBJECTIVE To perform an age and gender-matched 1:1 case-control study through a comparison of non-segmental vitiligo patients with autoimmune features vs. those without autoimmune features in regards to psychiatric features, psychosomatic aspects and social parameters. METHODS A total of 112 non-segmental vitiligo patients have been examined at the Florence University dermatology outpatient service (2nd dermatology unit). Vitiligo with an autoimmune background was defined by the presence of autoimmune antibodies and/or autoimmune diseases. Psychiatric screening was performed by dermatologists using the modified Middlesex Healthcare Questionnaire (MHQ); psychosomatic aspects and social impact were analysed with a standardized, Florentine questionnaire. RESULTS Upon performing a conditional regression model, age, phobia and obsession were significantly predictive of the presence of AIM and a low total MHQ score was significantly predictive of NAIM in vitiligo patients. With univariate analysis, we found significant differences in: identifiable stress related to the onset of vitiligo, vitiligo triggered by stress, and modified interpersonal relationships related to vitiligo, which were associated with the subgroup containing autoimmunity markers. CONCLUSIONS We found a higher prevalence of age, obsession and phobia among vitiligo patients AIM as compared to vitiligo patients NAIM. Thus, in the presence of demonstrated autoimmunity, screening for particular psychiatric aspects may be useful in the clinical practice of vitiligo.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report the procedural and long-term follow-up data (mean, 43 ± 29 months; range, 12-90 months) of endovascular stent grafting (ESG) of acute thoracic aortic syndromes (ATAS) with a proximal landing zone extension strategy. METHODS From November 1999 to May 2008, 26 patients (25 males, 1 female; mean age, 57.9 ± 17 years) with ATAS underwent ESG at our institution. Underlying pathologies were: penetrating aortic ulcer (n=7); rupture of a descending aorta aneurysm (n=5), post-traumatic false aneurysm (n=5); acute type B dissection (n=6) and traumatic descending aorta transection (n=3). RESULTS ESG was performed successfully in all patients. In 5 patients (19%), an extra-anatomic revascularization of the supra-aortic vessels was performed. In 19 patients (73%), overstenting of the left subclavian artery, without preliminary revascularization, was performed. The mean proximal landing zone length was 57 ± 19 mm. No intraprocedural deaths occurred; 3 patients died postoperatively (1 from an unrelated cause, 1 from a myocardial infarction and 1 for the sequelae of an ischemic stroke). One patient underwent cardiac surgery for post-procedural retrograde type-A dissection. Follow up involved a computed tomography (CT) scan at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, then yearly thereafter. At follow up, no deaths or major complications occurred. The CT scans revealed 1 small type-IB endoleak at 1 year. CONCLUSION In ATAS patients treated with ESG, the extension of the proximal landing zone, despite the need of subclavian coverage or hybrid procedures, is associated with an immediate procedural outcome and low morbidity at follow-up.

The role of laparoscopic appendectomy in complicated appendicitis is still not widely accepted. The authors report their retrospective study performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the laparoscopic approach in the management of complicated appendicitis. From January 2003 to October 2008, 552 patients underwent appendectomy in our surgical department. Among these, 358 were not complicated appendicitis while 194 were complicated. Of the 194 cases of complicated appendicitis, 121 patients underwent laparoscopic appendectomy while the remaining 73 cases were treated by conventional open surgery. The average length of hospital stay was 5.7 days, with a range from 4 to 13 days. Post-operative complications were observed in a total 11 patients (9.1%), including 3 cases of intra abdominal abscess (2.5%), 2 cases of umbilical wound infection (1.6%) and 6 cases of prolonged ileus (4.9%). Our experience suggests that the laparoscopic procedure is a valid, safe and feasible option to manage acute complicated appendicitis.

Aortic arch replacement with prophylactic aortic arch debranching during type A acute aortic dissection repair: initial experience with 23 patients. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2011; 40:418-23.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To improve the long-term results of acute type A dissection repair, we developed a technique that combines radical surgical resection, and, at the same time, creates a safe and long landing zone for subsequent endovascular procedure on the descending aorta. METHODS Since November 2006, 23 patients (62 ± 13 years) underwent aortic arch replacement concomitant with prophylactic debranching of the supra-aortic vessels, with a specially designed arch graft. The technique consists of replacing the ascending aorta and the aortic arch, and, at the same time, relocating the origin of the supra-aortic vessels just above the sinotubular junction creating a long and safe proximal landing zone for subsequent stent-graft deployment. Perfusion was antegrade through the ascending aorta during cooling and through the vascular prosthesis during rewarming. Distal arch anastomosis was performed under moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest for 25 ± 7 min and antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (46 ± 14 min). Cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic cross-clamp time were 138 ± 46 and 63 ± 22 min. RESULTS Hospital mortality was 4.3% (1/23). Postoperative morbidity includes five acute renal failures and four lung failures. No major neurological complications were observed. At follow-up (22±10 months), survival was 100% and two patients required an endovascular thoracic aorta repair for aneurysmal enlargement. In both cases, the stent grafts were successfully released in the landing zone created at the time of primary repair. CONCLUSIONS Our technique extends the suitability of endovascular therapies during type A acute dissection repair, creating a long and stable landing zone that allows safe performance of a second endovascular step if needed, both in the short- and long term.

Abstract
Three cases of adult, non-segmental vitiligo patients in which primary, common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) was present are described. In two of the three cases, psoriasis was also present. Onset of CVID was diagnosed before vitiligo in two patients, and subsequent to the onset of vitiligo in the remaining patient. A family history of CVID was negative in all three cases. In contrast, a family history of vitiligo was present in two cases and a family history of psoriasis was present in one case. In regards to vitiligo, disease onset was gradual, with active disease in two cases, while the third case had an abrupt disease onset with borderline activity during clinical presentation. Cutaneous disease extension ranged from 2% to 12.3% in the three cases. Upon physical exam, Koebner phenomenon and signs of inflammation, such as pruritus were present in two patients; one of whom had scalp leukotrikia as well. Stress was a triggering factor in the development of vitiligo in two cases. The presence of CVID due to drugs or diseases known to cause secondary antibody deficiency were excluded in all three patients. Lastly, all patients were under treatment with immunoglobulin replacement therapy, which did not change the outcourse of vitiligo.

Abstract
We investigate the dynamics of the two-dimensional periodic Kolmogorov flow of a viscoelastic fluid, described by the Oldroyd-B model, by means of direct numerical simulations. Above a critical Weissenberg number the flow displays a transition from stationary to randomly fluctuating states, via periodic ones. The increasing complexity of the flow in both time and space at progressively higher values of elasticity accompanies the establishment of mixing features. The peculiar dynamical behavior observed in the simulations is found to be related to the appearance of filamental propagating patterns, which develop even in the limit of very small inertial nonlinearities, thanks to the feedback of elastic forces on the flow.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A network system for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients offers a quick diagnosis and a rapid transfer to a specialized center for primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between door-to-balloon time and in-hospital mortality in our network of STEMI patients. METHODS Our Hub & Spoke network in the province of Massa-Carrara in the northwest of Tuscany Region, Italy, began in April 2006. This program involved 5 Spoke and 1 Hub centers, 1 medical helicopter, 3 advanced life support ambulances with direct transmission of the ECG and vital parameters to our cath lab on call 24h a day for primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Data regarding clinical, echocardiographic and hemodynamic parameters, the door-to-balloon (DTB) time and their impact on mortality were analyzed. RESULTS Up to January 2008, 312 STEMI patients were enrolled (242 male, mean age 66.6 +/- 12.3 years). The DTB time was 93 min (79-117, 25th-75th percentile, respectively). The gold standard of a DTB < or = 90 min was reached in 47.1% of patients. In-hospital mortality was associated with a longer DTB time as compared to alive patients (92 vs 120 min, p < 0.03). Two geographic areas of our territory were considered: the coast and the mountain area. Patients from the coast (n = 238) had a DTB time lower than patients from the mountain area (89.5 vs 122.5 min, p < 0.0001), and the risk of in-hospital mortality was significantly and independently correlated with the increase in DTB time (p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS; Our data confirm the correlation between DTB time and in-hospital mortality. More efforts are necessary to reduce the time to treatment and mortality rates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy and safety of drugeluting stents (DES) vs. bare-metal stents (BMS) in patients with acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). BACKGROUND DES effectively reduce restenosis in elective percutaneous coronary intervention. Limited data are available about the use of DES in patients with STEMI. METHODS 453 consecutive patients who presented with STEMI between July 2003 and May 2006 were studied. The procedural characteristics, 30-day, 12-, 18- and 26-month outcomes of 277 patients treated with DES were compared with 176 patients treated with BMS. RESULTS At 26-month follow up, DES therapy was associated with a significant decrease in major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (relative risk [RR] -35%; p = 0.01) and target lesion revascularization [TLR], RR -64%; p = 0.009). The DES group included more diabetic patients (20% vs. 9%; p < 0.001), and the stents were longer (22 +/- 0.28 mm vs. 19.4 +/- 0.36 mm; p < 0.001) and smaller (diameter: 2.9 +/- 0.02 mm vs. 3.1 +/- 0.02 mm; p < 0.001). The rate of stent thrombosis was similar and the prolonged combined antiplatelet therapy was an independent factor predicting a protective effect on MACE. CONCLUSIONS DES reduce the incidence of TLR and MACE in patients with STEMI without evidence of additional risks at 2-year follow up. DES therapy was associated with more complex interventional techniques, which yielded similar procedural results and clinical outcomes that may be influenced by prolonged combined antiplatelet therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE It has been suggested that atherosclerotic mechanisms are involved in the pathogenesis of aortic valve stenosis (AVS). We hypothesised that low levels of the soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products (sRAGE) might be associated with AVS due to its clinical and pathological associations with atherosclerosis. METHODS We enrolled 75 consecutive patients with severe AVS scheduled for surgical aortic valve replacement and 39 controls without AVS matched for age and gender. Besides the traditional risk factors, we evaluated plasma levels of sRAGE, C-reactive protein (CRP) and IL-6. All patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography, carotid arteries ultrasound scan and coronary angiography. The aortic and coronary calcium by multislice computed tomography was assessed in AVS patients. RESULTS The values of sRAGE were significantly lower (p<0.01) in AVS patients than in controls, while the CRP levels were significantly higher (p<0.05) in AVS patients than in controls. In AVS patients the sRAGE levels correlated inversely with age, cholesterol levels and coronary calcification. In all study subjects, we found an inverse correlation between circulating sRAGE and the number of echographically assessed sites of calcification (ANOVA, p<0.0001). In multivariable logistic regression analysis after adjustment for potential confounders, the sRAGE levels were significantly and independently associated with the risk of AVS (OR=0.997, 95% CI=0.994-1.000, p=0.048). CONCLUSION Since sRAGE could exert antiatherogenic effects by preventing inflammatory responses mediated by cell surface RAGE activation, low levels in AVS patients indicate that ligand-RAGE axis could contribute to pathogenesis of AVS.

Abstract
The lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) is a multiligand receptor, whose repertoire of ligands includes oxidized low-density lipoprotein, advanced glycation endproducts, platelets, neutrophils, apoptotic/aged cells and bacteria. Sustained expression of LOX-1 by critical target cells, including endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and macrophages in proximity to these ligands, sets the stage for chronic cellular activation and tissue damage suggesting the interaction of cellular LOX-1 with its ligands to contribute to the formation and development of atherosclerotic plaques. Studies with transgenic and knockout mouse models have elucidated in part the role of LOX-1 in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and cardiac remodeling. Recently, a circulating soluble form of LOX-1 (sLOX-1), corresponding solely to its extracellular domain, has been identified in human serum. Circulating levels of sLOX-1 are increased in inflammatory and atherosclerotic conditions and are associated with acute coronary syndrome, with the severity of coronary artery disease, and with serum biomarkers for oxidative stress and inflammation, suggesting that they could be a useful marker for vascular injury. However, many interesting questions have not yet been answered and in this review, we provide an updated overview of the literature on this receptor and on likely future directions.

Abstract
Background Repair of anterior leaflet prolapse is technically more challenging and this might influence outcomes as compared to the repair of posterior leaflet prolapse in patients undergoing surgical correction of mitral regurgitation. We investigated the association of anterior leaflet prolapse with minor residual mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) who underwent valve repair. Methods Eligible for this study were consecutive patients with severe MR due to MVP, who underwent mitral valve repair with residual MR by postpump transesophageal echocardiography ≤2+ during a 20-month period at Pasquinucci Hospital, Massa. Patients undergoing other cardiovascular surgical interventions were excluded. Two groups were defined according to the involvement of mitral valve leaflets: group 1, consisting of patients with anterior leaflet prolapse (isolated or not); and group 2, consisting of patients with isolated posterior leaflet prolapse. Results A total of 70 patients (18 in group 1 and 52 in group 2) were analyzed. Patients in group 2 were younger than those in group 1, but the difference was not significant (P = 0.052). There were no significant differences between the 2 study groups with respect to other variables. The proportion of patients with residual MR 1+/2+ was higher in group 1 than in group 2 (61.1% vs. 32.7%, respectively; P = 0.034). In a logistic regression model, anterior leaflet prolapse was an independent predictor of residual MR 1+/2+ (odds ratio, 4.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.14 to 14.04; P = 0.03). Conclusion In our study population, patients with anterior leaflet prolapse had a higher proportion of residual MR 1+/2+ as compared to those with posterior leaflet prolapse after repair of mitral valve.

Abstract
Current treatments for vitiligo are largely unsatisfactory. Topical corticosteroids and phototherapy (narrow-band UVB and psoralen+UVA) are the most prescribed, however, these therapies are often not effective and have important side-effect, especially when used for a long time. Many studies have reported the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus ointment in adults and children with vitiligo, particularly when located on the head and neck. Successful treatment is possible when it is combined with other therapies, such as narrow-band UVB, microphototherapy, helium-neon laser, or narrow-band excimer laser.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abciximab is established as adjunct to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Based on some smaller studies, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) networks in various European countries have adopted the start of abciximab before transfer to the catheterization laboratory (cathlab) hospital as part of their routine treatment options. Although a recently published study did not reveal improved clinical outcome when starting abciximab before the cathlab, a potential benefit from such early administration, in particular in the setting of transfer networks, remains unclear and has been the subject of debate. METHODS Data of consecutive patients with STEMI transferred for primary PCI in hospital/ambulance-feeded STEMI networks treated between November 2005 and January 2007 at 15 PCI centers from 7 European countries were collected in the web-based EUROTRANSFER Registry. RESULTS Data from a total of 1,650 patients were collected. Abciximab was administered to 1086 patients (66%), of whom 727 received early abciximab (EA group: abciximab started before admission to cathlab, at least 30 minutes before balloon). Another 359 patients received late abciximab (LA group: periprocedural administration of abciximab in the cathlab). Preprocedural TIMI 3 flow was observed in 17.7% of patients with EA and in 8.9% in the LA group (P < .0001). Thirty-day mortality was 3.9% in the EA group versus 7.5% with LA (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.29-0.85, P = .011), and composite 30-day outcome including death, repeated myocardial infarction, and urgent revascularization was present in 5.5% and 10.3%, respectively (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.32-0.81, P = .004). These differences remain statistically significant in favor of early abciximab after accounting and adjustment for differences between the groups by means of a multivariate regression model and propensity score. CONCLUSIONS Patients in STEMI networks transferred for primary PCI who have received abciximab before transfer rather than in the cathlab had more patent arteries before PCI and showed lower rates for death and the composite clinical outcome at 30-day follow-up.

Abstract
The anastomotic leakage is one of the most serious complications following colorectal surgery. The incidence rate is between 3% and 21% considering the different experiences, pathology and surgical techniques. Our aim is to verify the role of radiological study in 45 patients with clinical and subclinical colorectal anastomotic leakage total anastomoses = 252). In 31 patients at risk, the operation was concluded with a loop ileostomy. The radiological study gastrografin enema was performed in all patients (26 symptomatic and 19 asymptomatic patients with loop ileostomy). The dehiscence incidence resulted 5.5%: 14 of 252 patients. In our experience the radiological study of selected colorectal anastomoses allowed to show the site and the flow of the leakage and to plan the proper management. In asymptomatic patients the study allowed to programme a specific follow up in patients with higher risk of postinflammatory stenosis or perhaps neoplastic relapse.

Abstract
We report numerical evidence of elastic turbulence phenomenology in a two-dimensional periodic Kolmogorov flow. By direct numerical simulations of the Oldroyd-B viscoelastic model at very small Reynolds numbers, we find that above the elastic instability threshold the flow develops an elastic turbulent regime. We observe that both the turbulent drag and the Lyapunov exponent increase with the Weissenberg number, indicating the presence of a disordered, turbulentlike mixing flow. The energy spectrum develops a power-law scaling range with an exponent close to the experimental and theoretical expectations.

Abstract
Three cases of histologically proven primary non-ampullary adenocarcinoma of the duodenum, observed in our Department from 2001 to 2004, are described. The cases were treated by pancreaticoduodenectomy, duodenal resection and transduodenal excision, respectively. The rarity of this pathology is documented by few retrospective studies and justifies discussion about the main prognostic factors and the best therapeutic approach. We analyze diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic factors after a revision of literature.

Abstract
Acute right lower abdominal pain is often clinically difficult to diagnose. The diagnosis, especially in young patients, is frequently oriented to appendicular disease. Surgical exploration only confirms diagnosis or surprises the surgeon, revealing an unexpected right colon diverticulitis. This emergency condition challenges the surgeon with the dilemma about the best therapeutic choice: conservative or radical treatment? The elective localization of diverticulitis to the right colon is very rare (6.6-14%). The authors report a case of covered perforation of a solitary cecal diverticulum.

Abstract
An autocatalytic reacting system with particles interacting at a finite distance is studied. We investigate the effects of the discrete-particle character of the model on properties like reaction rate, quenching phenomenon, and front propagation, focusing on differences with respect to the continuous case. We introduce a renormalized reaction rate depending both on the interaction radius and the particle density, and we relate it to macroscopic observables (e.g., front speed and front thickness) of the system.
