Abstract
Correction to: Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci 2021; 25 (19): 5889-5903. DOI: 10.26355/eurrev_202110_26865. PMID: 34661247-published online on October 12, 2021. In the main text, D-dimer unit of measurement was mistakenly indicated as mg/dL rather than as ng/mL. The sentence "With regard to markers of coagulation, non-survivors showed significantly higher median levels of D-dimer as compared to survivors: 1348 mg/dL 949.5 mg/dL, respectively (p=0.03)." in its correct form is the following: "With regard to markers of coagulation, non-survivors showed significantly higher median levels of D-dimer as compared to survivors: 1348 ng/mL vs. 949.5 ng/mL, respectively (p=0.03).". In the first column of Table III (third row), D-dimer unit of measurement was mistakenly indicated as mg/dL rather than as ng/mL. Correction: "D-dimer (ng/mL)". There are amendments to this paper.

Abstract
AIMS A comprehensive review comparing the effect of vegetarian (V) and non-vegetarian (NV) diets on the major cardiometabolic diseases' outcomes was performed. DATA SYNTHESIS We performed literature research (up to December 31, 2022) of the evidence separately for vascular disease (VD), obesity (OB), dyslipidemia (Dysl), hypertension (HPT), type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic syndrome (MetS), analyzing only cohort studies and randomized controlled studies (RCTs) and comparing the effect of V and NV diets. Cohort studies showed advantages of V diets compared to NV diets on incidence and/or mortality risk for ischemic heart disease, overweight and OB risk. Most cohort studies showed V had lower risk of HPT and lower blood pressure (BP) than NV and V diets had positive effects on T2D risk or plasma parameters. The few cohort studies on the risk of MetS reported mixed results. In RCTs, V diets, mainly low-fat-vegan ones, led to greater weight loss and improved glycemic control than NV diets and in the only one RCT a partial regression of coronary atherosclerosis. In most RCTs, V diets significantly reduced LDL-C levels (but also decreased HDL-C levels) and BP. CONCLUSIONS In this comprehensive review of the association between V diets and cardiometabolic outcomes, we found that following this type of diet may help to prevent most of these diseases. However, the non-uniformity of the studies, due to ethnic, cultural, and methodological differences, does not allow for generalizing the present results and drawing definitive conclusions. Further, well-designed studies are warranted to confirm the consistency of our conclusions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PEOPLE trial aimed to identify new immune biomarkers in negative and low programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) (0%-49%) advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) patients treated with first-line pembrolizumab. Here we report the main outcomes and the circulating immune biomarkers analysis. PATIENTS AND METHODS The primary endpoint of this phase II trial was the identification of immune biomarkers associated with progression-free survival (PFS). Overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DoR) and safety were secondary endpoints. Absolute cell counts for 36 subsets belonging to innate and adaptive immunity were determined by multiparametric flow cytometry in peripheral blood at baseline and at first radiologic evaluation. An orthoblique principal components-based clustering approach and multivariable Cox regression model adjusted for clinical variables were used to analyze immune variables and their correlation with clinical endpoints. RESULTS From May 2018 to October 2020, 65 patients were enrolled. After a median follow-up of 26.4 months, the median PFS was 2.9 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.8-5.6 months] and median OS was 12.1 months (95% CI 8.7-17.1 months). The ORR was 21.5%, DCR was 47.7% and median DoR was 14.5 months (95% CI 6.4-24.9 months). Drug-related grade 3-4 adverse events were 9.2%. Higher T cell and natural killer (NK) cell count at baseline and at the first radiologic evaluation were associated with improved PFS, DCR and OS. On the contrary, higher myeloid cell count at baseline or at the first radiologic evaluation was significantly associated with worse OS and DCR. CONCLUSIONS Circulating immune biomarkers can contribute to predict outcomes in negative and low PD-L1 aNSCLC patients treated with first-line single-agent pembrolizumab.

Abstract
Background There is growing interest in the commercial determinants of health, broadly understood as the ways in which commercial actors influence health & health equity. Such actors can impact on health & health inequity, positively or negatively, through two main routes: (1) producing & driving use of/access to products or services potentially damaging or beneficial to health. (2) through diverse commercial practices which range from marketing, through lobbying, to tax & labour practices. Practices are arguably of greater importance given the growing shift to private sector employment & because all industries, not just those whose products are harmful, engage in them. Yet their contribution to physical, mental & planetary ill health is generally under-recognised with a focus hitherto on unhealth commodities. We aim to develop a practical categorisation of commercial sector practices Methods Narrative review & content analysis of existing categorisations (those attempting to cover all practices), & taxonomies (those focused on specific practices (e.g., marketing), related academic &grey literatures. Results There is dualism between the business studies & public health literatures, the latter tending to dichotomise market & non-market strategies while the former sees this as an outdated approach. While some specific practices are well documented, others remain poorly understood & theorised. A simplified categorisation is proposed which attempts to identify key commercial sector practices that can impact on health, the ways in which they overlap & reinforce each other. Evidence-based taxonomies for specific practices are identified. Conclusions Our categorisation provides a simple approach through which the commercial practices that can harm human & planetary health & drive health equity can be understood & addressed. It draws attention to the diverse ways through which corporations can harm health, identifies areas for action & further research. Key messages • The ways in which commercial sector practices influence health and health equity are diverse yet poorly understood. • We offer a simple categorisation of commercial practices which draws attention to the diverse ways through which they can harm health, helps identify solutions and areas for PH action.

Abstract
The large, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial VITAL (Vitamin D and omega 3 trial) recently confirmed that vitamin D and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) co-supplementation (VIDOM) can reduce the incidence of autoimmune diseases. Based on these relevant results, this commentary summarizes the molecular mechanisms behind the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of vitamin D and omega-3 PUFAs. We also describe the potential bidirectional interplay between vitamin D metabolism and omega-3 PUFA metabolism that underlies the rationale for VIDOM co-supplementation and that may contribute to enhance the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory actions of vitamin D and omega-3 PUFAs when these compounds are administered in combination.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Rapid and systematic access to coronary angiography (CAG) and target temperature management (TTM) might improve outcome in comatose patients who survive cardiac arrest (CA). However, there is controversy around indicating immediate CAG in the absence of transmural ischemia on the electrocardiogram after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). We evaluated the short– and long–term outcome of our retrospective cohort of patients undergoing systematic CAG and TTM, based on whether culprit lesion percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed.
Methods
All consecutive comatose CA survivors with no obvious extracardiac causes undergoing TTM were included. Analysis involved the entire population and subgroups, namely patients with initial unshockable rhythm, no ST–elevation on electrocardiogram, and good neurological recovery.
Results
We enrolled 107 patients with a median age of 64.9 (57.7–73.6) years. The initial rhythm was shockable in 83 (77.6%). Sixty–six (61.7%) patients underwent PCI. In–hospital survival was 71%. It was 78.8% and 58.5% in those undergoing or not PCI (p = 0.022), respectively. Age, time from CA to ROSC and culprit lesion PCI were independent predictors of in–hospital survival. Long–term survival was significantly higher in patients who underwent PCI (respectively 61.5% vs 34.1%; Log–rank: p = 0.002). Revascularization was associated with better outcomes regardless of initial rhythm (shockable vs non–shockable) and ST–deviation (elevation vs no–elevation), and improved the long–term survival of patients discharged with good neurological recovery.
Conclusion
Systematic CAG and revascularization, when indicated, were associated with higher survival in comatose patients undergoing TTM, regardless of initial rhythm and ST–deviation in the post–ROSC electrocardiogram. The benefit was sustained at long–term particularly in those with neurological recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy (TP) may be challenging and it often requires pleural biopsy. A tool able to increase pre-test probability of TP may be helpful to guide diagnostic work-up and enlargement of internal mammary lymph node (IMLN) has been suggested to play a potential role. The aim of the present investigation was to assess role of IMLN involvement in TP in a multi-centric case-control study, by comparing its prevalence and test performance to those observed in patients with infectious, non-tuberculous pleurisy (NTIP), and in controls free from respiratory diseases (CP). METHODS A total of 419 patients, from 14 Pulmonology Units across Italy were enrolled (127 patients affected by TP, 163 affected by NTIP and 129 CP). Prevalence, accuracy and predictive values of ipsilateral IMLN involvement between cases and control groups were assessed, as well as concordance between chest computed tomography (CT scan) and thoracic ultrasound (TUS) measurements. RESULTS The prevalence of ipsilateral IMLN involvement in TP was significantly higher than that observed in NTIP and CP groups (respectively 77.2%, 39.3% and 14.7%). Results on test performance, stratified by age, revealed a high positive predictive value in patients aged ≤50 years, while a high negative predictive value in patients aged >50 years. The comparison between CT scan and ultrasound showed moderate agreement (Kappa=0.502). CONCLUSIONS Evaluation of IMLN involvement plays a relevant role in assessing the pre-test probability of TP. Considering the increasing global prevalence of mycobacterial infections, a tool able to guide diagnostic work-up of suspected TP is crucial, especially where local sources are limited.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preliminary analysis from the Vax-On study did not find a correlation between cancer treatment type and antibody response to COVID-19 vaccination. We carried out a secondary subgroup analysis to verify the effects of comprehensive cancer treatment classification on vaccine immunogenicity. METHODS The Vax-On study prospectively enrolled patients who started a two-dose messenger RNA-BNT162b2 vaccine schedule from 9 March 2021 to 12 April 2021 (timepoint-1). Those on active treatment within the previous 28 days accounted for the exposed cases. Patients who had discontinued such treatment by at least 28 days or received intravesical therapy represented the control cases. Quantification of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against the receptor binding domain of the S1 subunit of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein was carried out before the second dose (timepoint-2) and 8 weeks thereafter (timepoint-3). Seroconversion response was defined at ≥50 arbitrary units/ml IgG titer. Classification of antineoplastic agents was based on their pharmacodynamic properties. RESULTS Three hundred and sixty-six patients were enrolled (86 and 260 as control and exposed cases, respectively). Univariate analysis revealed a significantly lower IgG titer after both doses of vaccine in subgroups treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), multiple cytotoxic agents, alkylating agents, and topoisomerase inhibitors. At timepoint-3, seroconversion response was significantly impaired in the topoisomerase inhibitors and mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors subgroups. After multivariate testing, treatment with alkylating agents and TKIs was significantly associated with a reduced change in IgG titer at timepoint-2. Treatment with mTOR inhibitors resulted in a similar interaction at each timepoint. Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor treatment was independently correlated with an incremental variation in IgG titer at timepoint-3. Specific subgroups (TKIs, antimetabolites, alkylating agents, and multiple-agent chemotherapy) predicted lack of seroconversion at timepoint-2, but their effect was not retained at timepoint-3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 2, immunosuppressive corticosteroid dosing, and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor use were independently linked to lower IgG titer after either dose of vaccine. CONCLUSIONS Drugs interfering with DNA synthesis, multiple-agent cytotoxic chemotherapy, TKIs, mTOR and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors differentially modulate humoral response to messenger RNA-BNT162b2 vaccine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence supports a sex disparity in clinical outcomes of COVID-19 patients, with men exhibiting higher mortality rates compared to women. We aimed to test the correlation between serum levels of sex hormones [total testosterone, estradiol (E2), estradiol to testosterone (E2/T) ratio, progesterone), prolactin and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and markers of inflammation, coagulation and sepsis at admission in hospitalized men with COVID-19. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted an exploratory retrospective study including symptomatic men with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection who were consecutively admitted to our Institution between April 1 and May 31, 2020. RESULTS Patients were divided into survivors (n=20) and non-survivors (n=39). As compared to survivors, non-survivors showed significantly higher median neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) values, D-dimer and procalcitonin (PCT) levels, along with significantly lower median 25(OH)D levels and total testosterone levels. Non-survivors exhibited significantly higher median values of E2/T ratio (a marker of aromatase activity). Spearman's correlation analysis revealed that total testosterone levels were significantly and inversely correlated with NLR, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), interleukin-6, D-dimer and PCT. Conversely, E2/T ratio values were significantly and positively correlated with the aforementioned markers and with white blood cell (WBC) count. In a multivariate analysis performed by a logistic regression model after adjusting for major confounders (age, body mass index, hypertension and cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and malignancy), total testosterone levels were significantly and inversely associated with risk of COVID-19-related in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS Low total testosterone levels and elevated E2/T ratio values at admission are associated with hyperinflammatory state in hospitalized men with COVID-19. Low total testosterone levels at admission represent an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality in such patients. Therefore, total testosterone and E2/T ratio may serve as prognostic markers of disease severity in this population.

Abstract
Volume change and large deformation occur in different solid and semi-solid foods during processing, e.g., shrinkage of fruits and vegetables during drying and of meat during cooking, swelling of grains during hydration, and expansion of dough during baking and of snacks during extrusion and puffing. In addition, food is broken down during oral processing. Such phenomena are the result of complex and dynamic relationships between composition and structure of foods, and driving forces established by processes and operating conditions. In particular, water plays a key role as plasticizer, strongly influencing the state of amorphous materials via the glass transition and, thus, their mechanical properties. Therefore, it is important to improve the understanding about these complex phenomena and to develop useful prediction tools. For this aim, different modelling approaches have been applied in the food engineering field. The objective of this article is to provide a general (non-systematic) review of recent (2005-2021) and relevant works regarding the modelling and simulation of volume change and large deformation in various food products/processes. Empirical- and physics-based models are considered, as well as different driving forces for deformation, in order to identify common bottlenecks and challenges in food engineering applications.

Abstract
Background Platinum-based therapy, combined or not with immune checkpoint inhibitors, represents a front-line choice for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Despite the improved outcomes in the last years for this malignancy, only a sub-group of patients have long-term benefit. Excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) has been considered a potential biomarker to predict the outcome of platinum-based chemotherapy in NSCLC. However, the ERCC1 gene is transcribed in four splice variants where the isoform 202 was described as the only one active and able to complex Xeroderma pigmentosum group F-complementing protein (XPF). Here, we prospectively investigated if the active form of ERCC1, as assessed by the ERCC1/XPF complex (ERCC1/XPF), could predict the sensitivity to platinum compounds. Patients and methods Prospectively enrolled, patients with advanced NSCLC treated with a first-line regimen containing platinum were centrally evaluated for ERCC1/XPF by a proximity ligation assay. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR) were analyzed. Results The absence of the ERCC1/XPF in the tumor suggested a trend of worst outcomes in terms of both OS [hazard ratio (HR) 1.41, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.67-2.94, P = 0.373] and PFS (HR 1.61, 95% CI 0.88-3.03, P = 0.123). ORR was marginally influenced in ERCC1/XPF-negative and -positive groups [odds ratio (stable disease + progressive disease versus complete response + partial response) 0.87, 95% CI 0.25-3.07, P = 0.832]. Conclusion The lack of ERCC1/XPF complex in NSCLC tumor cells might delineate a group of patients with poor outcomes when treated with platinum compounds. ERCC1/XPF absence might well identify patients for whom a different therapeutic approach could be necessary. This is the first study investigating the ERCC1/XPF complex as a platinum-based therapy response biomarker in NSCLC. The lack of ERCC1/XPF complex might delineate a group of patients with poor outcomes when treated with platinum compounds. ERCC1/XPF absence might identify tumors for whom a different therapeutic approach than platinum compounds could be necessary.

Abstract
Abstract
In recent years, commercial organizations have become more and more prominent in research sponsorship. However, these arrangements pose high risks of bias to the research environment and consequently risks to public health. Corporate sponsorship can influence the design, conduct, and publication of research. Although more difficult to define, industry sponsorship can also influence the research agenda, namely the initial step in conducting research, during which the research questions are chosen.
The results of a scoping review on influence of industry sponsorship on research agendas will be presented to delegates. In this review, we found that corporations adopted similar strategies across different industry sectors. Corporations fund research that can be used to promote their products, distract from their harms, support their policy and legal positions, and decrease regulation of their products. By influencing the research agenda, corporate interests have the potential to influence public debate and policy-making.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patient groups play an important role in health care and policy. Concerns have been raised about the financial ties between the pharmaceutical industry and patient groups, because of potential threats to the groups' independence. We conducted a systematic review to synthesise studies that explored pharmaceutical or medical device industry funding of patient groups.
Methods
We searched Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar (from inception to January 2018). We included observational studies reporting at least one of the following outcomes: prevalence of industry funding; proportion of industry funded patient groups which disclosed information about this funding; association between industry funding and organisational positions on health and policy issues. We carried out duplicate independent data extraction and assessed study quality.
Results
26 cross-sectional studies were included. Fifteen studies assessed the prevalence of industry funding, which ranged from 20% (12/61) to 83% (86/104). The proportion of patient groups which disclosed funding information on their websites was low (27% [95% CI: 24%-31%]). Few patient groups had formal policies governing corporate sponsorship (range from 2% (2/125) to 64% (175/274)). Among the few studies examining funding status versus organisational position, industry sponsored groups tend to hold positions consistent with sponsors' interests.
Conclusions
We found widespread indications of industry funding of patient groups. Transparency of funding is inadequate and the prevalence of policies governing corporate sponsorship is low. Research on policy impact is still limited. Considering the important role that patient groups play in health, strategies to prevent biases that may favour commercial interests above those of patients need to be implemented.
Key messages
Industry funding of patient groups is common in high income countries. Transparency of funding is inadequate and the prevalence of policies governing corporate sponsorship is low. Considering the important role that patient groups play in health care and policy, strategies to prevent biases that may favour commercial interests above those of patients need to be implemented.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mononeuritis multiplex (MM) is an unusual form of peripheral neuropathy involving at least two noncontiguous peripheral nerve trunks. The pure sensory form of MM occurs rarely. Immunoglobulin (Ig)G subclass deficiency is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder. Up to 50% of adults with selective subnormal IgG1 levels or selective IgG1 deficiency have a concomitant autoimmune disorder. Herein, we report the case of a patient with MM and selective IgG1 deficiency who showed remarkable clinical improvement after 2-year combination therapy with the DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin plus vitamin D3. CASE REPORT A 49-year-old man developed numbness in right hand and forearm. After 6 months, the patient developed left forefoot numbness. Approximately 8 years later, the patient started to develop numbness also in the right forefoot, along with symptoms of evening fatigue and occasional orthostatic hypotension. The patient also reported recurrent candidiasis in glans and intergluteal areas since adolescence. Electromyoneurography of lower and upper limbs revealed the presence of multiple mononeuropathies. Protein electrophoresis showed hypogammaglobulinemia and low serum IgG1 levels. Sural nerve biopsy showed the presence of perineuritis. The patient was diagnosed with MM due to perineuritis probably secondary to IgG1 deficiency. We, then, proposed combination therapy with sitagliptin and vitamin D3 in the attempt to achieve immunomodulation. At the last follow-up visit (2 years), the patient showed persistent clinical improvement, increase in IgG1 levels and normalization of protein electrophoresis. CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case showing a remarkable clinical improvement of MM and selective IgG1 deficiency achieved through a combination therapy with sitagliptin and vitamin D3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight loss is a milestone in the prevention of chronic diseases associated with high morbility and mortality in industrialized countries. Very-low calorie ketogenic diets (VLCKDs) are increasingly used in clinical practice for weight loss and management of obesity-related comorbidities. Despite evidence on the clinical benefits of VLCKDs is rapidly emerging, some concern still exists about their potential risks and their use in the long-term, due to paucity of clinical studies. Notably, there is an important lack of guidelines on this topic, and the use and implementation of VLCKDs occurs vastly in the absence of clear evidence-based indications. PURPOSE We describe here the biochemistry, benefits and risks of VLCKDs, and provide recommendations on the correct use of this therapeutic approach for weight loss and management of metabolic diseases at different stages of life.

Abstract
Extending and controlling the spectral range of light detectors is very appealing for several sensing and imaging applications. Here we report on a normal incidence dual band photodetector operating in the visible and near infrared with a bias tunable spectral response. The device architecture is a germanium on silicon epitaxial structure made of two back-to-back connected photodiodes. The photodetectors show a broad photoresponse extending from 390nm to 1600nm with the capability to electronically select the shorter (400-1100 nm) or the longer (1000-1600 nm) portion with a relatively low applied voltage. Devices exhibit peak VIS and NIR responsivities of 0.33 and 0.63 A/W, respectively, a low optical crosstalk (<-30dB), a wide dynamic range (>120dB) and, thanks to their low voltage operation, maximum specific detectivities of 7·1011cmHz1/2/W and 2·1010cmHz1/2/W in the VIS and NIR, respectively.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Despite the sequential E therapy is recognized as the preferred approach for HR+/HER2- MBC, no data from clinical trials support the choice between the different sequential strategies.
Methods: In this retrospective study descriptive statistics are reported using the median (Interquartile range, IQR) or frequency. Progression Free Survival (PFS) curves were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method and compared with the log-rank test. Analysis were performed by SPSS version 21.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL).
Results: From January 2006 to December 2017, 240 patients (pts) with HR+/HER2- MBC receiving at least two consecutive E therapies as first approach were selected from 12 italian cancer centers. The median age at the time of metastasis onset was 63.5 (IQR: 55-72.5) years; 184 (76.7%) pts were in menopausal status; 38 (16%) had de novo stage IV disease and the remaining 202 (84%) had recurrent BC with a median time of 78 months (5-396 months). At the beginning of MBC diagnosis, 148 (62%) pts had a single site of distant disease, 108 (45%) of whom had bone only disease and 45 (18.8%) presented visceral involvement too. The aromatase inhibitor (AI) was chosen as I-line therapy in 146 (60.9%) pts, followed by Fulvestrant (F) in 62 (25.8%) pts; the alternative I-line options were everolimus-exemestane (Eve-Exe), tamoxifene (T), Palbociclib (P)+AI and F+AI in 13 (5.4%), 14 (5.8%), 1 (0.4%) and 4 (1.7%) pts, respectively. The most favourite II-line option resulted F for 111 (46.2%) pts while the Eve-Exe combination was chosen in 70 (29.2%) pts, AI in 30 (12.5%) pts; T, AI+F, P+F and antiprogestincwere administered in 4 (1.7%), 4 (1.7%), 19 (7.9%) and 2 (0.8%) pts, respectively. For I and II-line, the AI followed by F (40%) and F followed by Eve-Exe (18%) were the most common sequential therapeutic approaches; the several alternative options were scanty used (in less than 10%). The median Progression-Free Survival (PFS) from first and second-line E therapies resulted 15.7 (95% CI 13.3-18.1) and 10.3 months (95% CI 8.7-11.9), respectively. Among 194 pts with disease progression after second-line E therapy, 87 (44.8%) received further E therapies with a median PFS 9.4 months (95% CI 7.9-10.9). The remaining 70 (29.2%) pts was treated with palliative chemotherapy. Interestingly, the median Overall Survival (OS) was even longer for pts receiving more lines of E therapies compared to the group with earlier introduction of chemotherapy (204.3 vs 92.8; p=0.007).
Finally, in the subgroup analyses a longer PFS benefit was observed in pts with disease recurrence over 12 months from initial diagnosis (38.1 vs 30.3 months p=0.04) and limited sites of disease involvement at the time of MBC diagnosis (37.6 vs 28.3 months, p=0.03)
Conclusions: The sequential use in first and second-line setting of E therapies for HR+/HER2- MBC improves median PFS up to 32.3 months. According to real practice experience the optimal sequences could be AIs followed by F and F followed by Eve-Exe. A role for these compounds should be redefined in the light of recently introduction of CDK 4/6 inhibitors in combination with AIs or F for the first or later lines.

Abstract
Lactobionic acid (LBA) is a fine chemical largely applied in the food, chemical, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Here, its production from ricotta cheese whey (RCW), or scotta, the main by-product obtained from ricotta cheese production process and currently employed mainly for cattle feed, was evaluated. Among seven bacterial species tested, only two Pseudomonas taetrolens strains were selected after preliminary screening in shake-flasks. When autoclaved RCW was used, a lactobionic acid titer of 34.25 ± 2.86 g/l, with a conversion yield (defined as mol LBA/mol of consumed lactose%) of up to 85 ± 7.0%, was obtained after 48 h of batch fermentation in 3 L stirred tank bioreactor. This study is a preliminary investigation on the potential industrial use of scotta as a substrate for bacterial growth and lactobionic acid production that details the possible biotechnological valorization pathways and feasibility of the process.

Abstract
Cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is a significant clinical problem. Its pathogenesis is complex and multifactorial. It likely involved at least six major injury pathways: exogenous and endogenous toxins, metabolic factors, ischemia and reperfusion, neurohormonal activation, inflammation and oxidative stress. These mechanisms of injury are likely to be active at different times with different intensity and probably act synergistically. Because of such complexity and the small number of randomised controlled investigations in this field only limited recommendations can be made. Nonetheless, it appears important to avoid nephrotoxic drugs and desirable to avoid hyperglycemia in the peri-operative period. The duration of cardiopulmonary bypass should be limited whenever possible. Off-pump surgery, when indicated, may decrease the risk of AKI. Invasive hemodynamic monitoring focussed on attention to maintaining euvolemia, an adequate cardiac output and an adequate arterial blood pressure is desirable. Echocardiography may be useful in minimizing atheroembolic complications. The administration of N-acetylcysteine to protect the kidney from oxidative stress is not recommended. There is marked lack of randomised controlled trials in this field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interest in vegetarian diets is growing in Italy and elsewhere, as government agencies and health/nutrition organizations are emphasizing that regular consumption of plant foods may provide health benefits and help prevent certain diseases. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a Pubmed search, up to September, 2015, for studies on key nutrients (proteins, vitamin B12, iron, zinc, calcium, vitamin D, and n-3 fatty acids) in vegetarian diets. From 295 eligible publications the following emerged: Vegetarians should be encouraged to supplement their diets with a reliable source of vitamin B12 (vitamin-fortified foods or supplements). Since the plant protein digestibility is lower than that of animal proteins it may be appropriate for vegetarians to consume more proteins than recommended for the general population. Vegetarians should also be encouraged to habitually consume good sources of calcium, iron and zinc - particularly vegetables that are low in oxalate and phytate (e.g. Brassicaceae), nuts and seeds, and calcium-rich mineral water. Calcium, iron, and zinc bioavailability can be improved by soaking, germination, and sour-dough leavening that lower the phytate content of pulses and cereals. Vegetarians can ensure good n-3 fatty acid status by habitually consuming good sources of a-linolenic acid (walnuts, flaxseeds, chia seeds, and their oils) and limiting linoleic acid intake (corn and sunflower oils). CONCLUSIONS Well-planned vegetarian diets that include a wide variety of plant foods, and a reliable source of vitamin B12, provide adequate nutrient intake. Government agencies and health/nutrition organizations should provide more educational resources to help Italians consume nutritionally adequate vegetarian diets.
