Abstract
Leaf removal is a cultural practice mainly aimed at improving cluster zone microclimates and impacting primary and secondary metabolites, such as volatiles. This research aimed to assess the impact of defoliation on free and glycosylated aromas of a neutral ('Nebbiolo') and a semi-aromatic ('Aleatico') red variety. Defoliation was performed at fruit set (BBCH 71) and, for 'Nebbiolo', also at berries touch (BBCH 81) phenological stages. Skins and pulps were separately analyzed by Solid Phase Extraction-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry. Results showed that the response to defoliation was variety-dependent. For 'Nebbiolo', especially when performed at the berries' touch stage, defoliation had a significant effect on the accumulation of free volatiles and glycosidic precursors. Differently, free and bound 'Aleatico' volatiles were less impacted by defoliation. Interestingly, in both grapevine varieties, defoliation significantly enhanced the accumulation of aroma precursors in grapes' skins, which is of particular relevance for red wine production and their aging potential. Moreover, results could be helpful for the management of grape quality, as defoliation is currently considered as a strategy to address climate change issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The biochemical makeup of grape berries at harvest is essential for wine quality and depends on a fine transcriptional regulation occurring during berry development. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive survey of transcriptomic and metabolomic changes occurring in different berry tissues and developmental stages of the ancient grapes Aglianico and Falanghina to establish the patterns of the secondary metabolites contributing to their wine aroma and investigate the underlying transcriptional regulation. RESULTS Over two hundred genes related to aroma were found, of which 107 were differentially expressed in Aglianico and 99 in Falanghina. Similarly, 68 volatiles and 34 precursors were profiled in the same samples. Our results showed a large extent of transcriptomic and metabolomic changes at the level of isoprenoids (terpenes, norisoprenoids), green leaf volatiles (GLVs), and amino acid pathways, although the terpenoid metabolism was the most distinctive for Aglianico, and GLVs for Falanghina. Co-expression analysis that integrated metabolome and transcriptome data pinpointed 25 hub genes as points of biological interest in defining the metabolic patterns observed. Among them, three hub genes encoding for terpenes synthases (VvTPS26, VvTPS54, VvTPS68) in Aglianico and one for a GDP-L-galactose phosphorylase (VvGFP) in Falanghina were selected as potential active player underlying the aroma typicity of the two grapes. CONCLUSION Our data improve the understanding of the regulation of aroma-related biosynthetic pathways of Aglianico and Falanghina and provide valuable metabolomic and transcriptomic resources for future studies in these varieties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the prevalence of olfactory dysfunction (OD) at different stages of the COVID-19 pandemic by evaluating subjects diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection during the Omicron wave with psychophysical tests and comparing the results with those obtained from patients infected during the D614G, Alpha and Delta waves and with those of a control group. METHODOLOGY The study included adult patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Depending on the time of diagnosis, the subjects were divided into four study groups: D614G; Alpha, Delta and Omicron variant groups. A group of uninfected individuals was used as control. All subjects underwent psychophysical evaluation of the olfactory function with the Connecticut Chemosensory Clinical Research Center olfactory test (D614G and Alpha groups) or the extended version of the Sniffin'Sticks test (Delta, Omicron and control groups). RESULTS 372 cases (134 D614G group, 118 Alpha group, 32 in Delta group and 88 Omicron group) were recruited and evaluated within 10 days of infection, alongside 80 controls. Patients self-reported olfactory loss in 72.4% of cases in the D614G group, in 75.4% of cases in the Alpha group, in 65.6% of cases in the Delta group and in 18.1% in the Omicron group. Psychophysical evaluation revealed a prevalence of OD: 80.6%, 83.0%, 65.6% and 36.3% in the D614G, Alpha, Delta and Omicron group respectively. The differences between the D614G, Alpha and Delta groups were not statistically significant. The Omicron group demonstrated a significantly lower prevalence of OD than the other variants but still significantly higher than the controls. CONCLUSIONS During the Omicron wave OD was less prevalent than during the D614G, Alpha and Delta periods. One-third of patients have reduced olfactory function on psychophysical evaluation during the Omicron wave. Our results should be considered with caution as the VOC has not been determined with certainty.

Abstract
Addition of oenological tannins claims to have a positive impact on wine stability, protection from oxidation and likely sensory persistence. However, their role on red wine aroma during oxidation is controversial. The present study aims at investigating the effect of addition of oenological tannins on wine flavour (mainly aroma) before and after air exposure. Temporal Dominance of Sensations, a dynamic sensory evaluation, was coupled with a dynamic chemical measurement (nosespace analysis) using a Proton-Transfer-Reaction Mass-Spectrometer connected to the nasal cavity of 17 assessors. Results showed that the oxidation of a non-oaked Pinot Noir red wine decreases the fruity aroma dominance and increases the maderised and prune one. A contextual decrease of the fruity ethyl decanoate and increase of oxidative Strecker aldehydes are observed. Ellagitannins but not proanthocyanidins preserved perception of fruitiness and prevented increase of maderised notes. Moreover, ellagitannins increase the aroma persistence mainly in the non-oxidized wine.

Abstract
An extensive survey was conducted on 110 Italian monovarietal red wines from a single vintage to determine their standard compositional, color, and phenolic characteristics, analysing more than 35 parameters evaluated through methods commonly used in the wine industry. 'Primitivo' achieved the highest average alcohol strength (15.4% v/v) and dry extract values, while 'Cannonau' showed the lowest total acidity. 'Corvina' had the lowest phenolic content (1065 mg/L by Folin-Ciocalteu assay), remarkably different from the highest found in 'Sagrantino' (3578 mg/L), the latter being also the richest variety in both proanthocyanidins and vanillin-reactive flavanols. 'Teroldego' wines were the richest in both total and monomeric anthocyanins (702 and 315 mg/L, respectively), followed by 'Aglianico' and 'Raboso Piave', while 'Corvina', 'Nebbiolo', and 'Nerello Mascalese' were the poorest. 'Montepulciano' and 'Sangiovese' showed intermediate values for the majority of the parameters analyzed. A multivariate PCA-DA approach allowed achieving both a classification of the different wines as well as the discrimination of 'Sangiovese' wines produced in two regions (Emilia Romagna and Toscana) that returned a 42-66% success rate depending on the zone considered. Taking into account the number and diversity of the wines analyzed, a correlation study helped in better understanding the underlying relations between the most common and widespread analytical techniques for phenolic and color determinations.

Abstract
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a viral infection caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which emerged in East Asia and spread around the world from December 2019. The most severe stage of COVID-19 pathology is characterized by respiratory distress requiring intubation. In specific cases, tracheostomy is indicated to ensure the safety of the procedure. The aim of our study was to analyze the scientific literature identifying the indications for tracheostomy and safety precautions to reduce contamination. We analyzed the literature from February 2003 to April 2020, including papers on pandemics of other coronaviruses, such As Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 1 and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus, to obtain a variety of relevant information. We focused on indications for tracheostomy in patients affected by COVID-19 or related viruses and the measures adopted to perform a safe procedure. We included 35 papers, of which 24 (68.57%) discussed guidelines for tracheostomy indications. All 35 studies discussed the procedures for performing tracheostomy safely. Data obtained indicated that the authors generally agreed on safety measures but expressed different opinions about indications. Therefore, we provided guidelines addressing safety recommendations. After the pandemic has been resolved, we plan to conduct an international retrospective study to identify the criteria for tracheostomy indications.

Abstract
The aim of this project was to register, in a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based untargeted single-batch analysis, the metabolome of 11 single-cultivar, single-vintage Italian red wines (Aglianico, Cannonau, Corvina, Montepulciano, Nebbiolo, Nerello, Primitivo, Raboso, Sagrantino, Sangiovese, and Teroldego) from 12 regions across Italy, each one produced in their terroirs under ad hoc legal frameworks to guarantee their quality and origin. The data provided indications regarding the similarity between the cultivars and highlighted a rich list of putative biomarkers of origin wines (pBOWs) characterizing each individual cultivar-terroir combination, where Primitivo, Teroldego, and Nebbiolo had the maximum number of unique pBOWs. The pBOWs included anthocyanins (Teroldego), flavanols (Aglianico, Sangiovese, Nerello, and Nebbiolo), amino acids and N-containing metabolites (Primitivo), hydroxycinnamates (Cannonau), and flavonols (Sangiovese). The raw data generated in this study are publicly available and, therefore, accessible and reusable as a baseline data set for future investigations.

Abstract
Septal deviations are the most frequent cause of nasal obstruction, and represent a common complaint in rhinologic practice. Since the first description of Lanza et al. in 1991, the use of the endoscope for the correction of septal deformities is increasingly more frequent. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectivenes of the endoscopic septoplasty for the correction of each of the 7 types of septal deformities according to the Mladina’s classification. A retrospective chart review was performed in 59 consecutive patients presenting to our Department for Endoscopic Septoplasty from February 2012 to August 2014. For each deviation, descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation, significant increase/decrease) was used to asses the corrective capacity and time-dependent effects at follow-up. This study shows that the corrective power of endoscopic septoplasty is different according to the type of deviation. To our knowledge this is the first study that evaluates the corrective capacity of this technique for each deviation by analysing pre- and postoperative objective outcomes as well as subjective outcomes gathered from the validated NOSE questionnaire. Even if endoscopic septoplasty may now be considered a reliable alternative to the classic technique, it is essential to identify the right deformity preoperatively in order to provide the correct therapeutic choice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study, by combining sensory and experimental economics techniques, aims to analyse to what extent the production process, and the information about it, may affect consumer preferences. Sparkling wines produced by Champenoise and Charmat methods were the object of the study. A quantitative descriptive sensory analysis with a trained panel and non-hypothetical auctions combined with hedonic ratings involving young wine consumers (N = 100), under different information scenarios (Blind, Info and Info Taste), were performed. RESULTS The findings show that the production process impacts both the sensory profile of sparkling wines and consumer expectations. In particular, the hedonic ratings revealed that when tasting the products, both with no information on the production process (Blind) and with such information (Info Taste), the consumers preferred the Charmat wines. On the contrary, when detailed information on the production methods was given without tasting (Info), consumers liked the two Champenoise wines more. CONCLUSION It can be concluded that sensory and non-sensory attributes of sparkling wines affect consumers' preferences. Specifically, the study suggests that production process information strongly impacts liking expectations, while not affecting informed liking. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Natural (N) as well as starter inoculated (S, inoculated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae M3-5; CZS, Candida zemplinina T13, Zygosaccharomyces bailii NS113 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae M3-5) fermentations of Falanghina must from dehydrated grape were monitored. Culture dependent analyses and amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing targeting 18S rRNA and 16S rRNA genes were used to monitor the fungal and bacterial communities (8 sampling points during 65 days). The resulting wines were subject to both sensory evaluation and volatile organic compounds analysis. Fungal community of un-inoculated musts (N) at beginning of the fermentation was mainly represented by Aureobasidium, Cladosporium, Sclerotinia, while Candida, Debaryomyces, Hanseniaspora, Metschnikowia, Pichia, Saccharomyces and Zygosaccharomyces showed a very low occurrence. The dominance of Hanseniaspora vineae and/or Hanseniaspora uvarum was clear up to 29th days of fermentation. S. cerevisiae occurred in all the phases but become dominant only at the end of the process. The odour profiles as evaluate by Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA) highlighted a significant impact of the fungal populations on the olfactory profiles of the wines. Raisins, dried fruits, Sherry and liqueur were stronger in both S and CZS, while N was mostly discriminated by solvent/chemical and floral features. Outcomes underpin the impact of microbiota on the chemical and odour traits of Falanghina passito wines.

Abstract
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the benefits of the SMAS flap in patients with benign tumours of the parotid gland treated by superficial parotidectomy. We carried out a retrospective chart review on 123 patients suffering from benign tumours of the parotid gland admitted to our Institution between March 1997 and March 2010. A superficial parotidectomy was performed in all the cases reported. Our sample was divided in two groups basing SMAS flap reconstruction done (Group 2) or not (Group 1) after superficial parotidectomy. Reconstruction using SMAS flap was accomplished in 64 patients. Chi-square test was used to assess statistical difference between the two groups. The level of statistical significance was P < 0.05. No significant differences concerning hematoma, wound infection and facial paralysis were observed between the first and second group (3.38 vs 1.56% [P > 0.05], 8.47% vs 4.68% [P > 0.05], 5.08% vs 0.00% [P > 0.05]). Transient facial nerve weakness, fistula, dip skin and Frey's syndrome were significantly more frequent without SMAS flap reconstruction (10.16% vs 3.125% [P < 0.05], 13.55% vs 3.125% [P < 0.05], 13.55% vs 3.125% [P < 0.05], 20.33% vs 0% [P < 0.05] respectively). The use of the SMAS flap is able to reduce the cosmetic and functional complications that occur after the removal of a benign tumour of the parotid through the superficial parotidectomy technique, above all, it reduces the occurrence of Frey's syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of our study was to compare Merocel (Merocel Hemox 10 cm) and BNP (biodegradable nasopore) during a septoturbinoplasty procedure in terms of efficiency and patient comfort. PATIENTS AND METHODS We carried out a retrospective review of 72 patients who had undergone septoturbinoplasty between January 2015 and January 2016. Each group, packed with BNP or Merocel Hemox 10 cm was composed of 36 patients. A standard visual analogue scale ranging from zero (no symptoms) to 10 (the most severe symptoms) was used to assess subjective symptoms. To compare the usefulness of materials we evaluated the postoperative bleeding, infection and adhesion after the removal of packing with and endoscopic examination using a 5-point scale (zero, absent; 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, severe; and 4, very severe). Secretions and crusts were evaluated 1 week and 4 weeks after surgery in both groups using a 5-point scale (zero, absent; 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, severe; and 4, very severe). RESULTS A total of 72 patients were enrolled in the study, 45 women and 27 men; age range 15-78 with a mean age of 47 years. In the group A (Merocel group), 21 cases showed grade 1 bleeding (58%), 11 cases grade 2 (30%) and 4 patients grade 0 (11.1%). In the group B (BNP group), 29 cases showed grade 0 bleeding (80.56%) and 7 cases showed grade 1 bleeding (19.44%). There was a statistical significant difference between the Merocel group and the BNP group in terms of bleeding after removal of packing material (p < 0.05). In the group A, 16 patients developed mild adhesion (44%), 8 patients moderate adhesion (22.2%), 3 patients severe adhesion (8.33%) and 1 patient very severe adhesion (2.77%). BNP nasal packing didn't cause any adhesion in 25 patients (69.4%), 11 patients developed mild adhesion (30.5%). So there was a statistical significant difference between group A and group B regarding the adhesion (p < 0.05). There was a statistically significance reduction of nasal secretions and crusts at a week after surgery in the BNP group vs. Merocel group. The difference is not statistically significant 4 weeks after surgery. About the severity of symptoms related to nasal packing, we found a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between Merocel and BNP group regarding the pain during packing removal, the general satisfaction and the pressure. CONCLUSIONS Biodegradable nasopore reduced pain and patient discomfort during packing removal and causes less bleeding compared to Merocel hemox 10 cm. This type of material can be used after septoturbinolplasty.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteomas are benign tumors that frequently affect the cranio-facial region, especially the temporal bones, jaw and sinus. This lesion very rarely involves the maxillary bones. The aim of our study is to describe our surgical case series and to evaluate the diagnosis and management of peripheral craniofacial osteomas with a review of the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a series of 14 patients that underwent surgery for the removal of a cranio-facial osteoma, 10 cases were peripheral osteoma of the lower jaw and 4 were peripheral osteomas of the upper jaw. The 14 patients included 8 females and 6 males, with a mean age of 42 years. The median follow up period was 48 months. RESULTS All patients received a total surgical removal and we did not have any intraoperative complications with optimal cosmetic and functional results. Pain resolved in all cases and a single case postoperative dysesthesia occurred. NO recurrence has been detected at last follow-up visit. CONCLUSIONS Osteomas must be well identified and differentiated from other solid diseases of the bone and should be treated if symptomatic. The elective treatment is surgical removal, resulting in a complete resolution of the pathology.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic inflammatory disease significantly risen worldwide, especially among children. Adipokines, secreted from adipose tissue, are hormones involved in various cellular processes such as energy metabolism and inflammation. Among the others, adiponectin is gaining increasing interest for its insulin-sentitizing, anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory properties. This adipokine undergoes different post-translational modifications, after which it circulates as oligomers of high, medium and low molecular weight (HMW, MMW, LMW); HMW are the most biologically active oligomers. Serum adiponectin levels as well as the amount of its oligomers are inversely correlated to BMI and closely associated with obesity and related diseases. In this study, we analyzed total adiponectin expression and its oligomeric profile in saliva samples from 27 obese compared to 27 age- and sex-matched controls. Moreover, we compared adiponectin oligomerization between serum and saliva samples. The analysis of the different adiponectin oligomers reveals a slightly higher expression of total, HMW and LMW salivary adiponectin in obese patients compared to controls. Finally, FPLC analysis evidenced that HMW oligomers in saliva have a higher molecular weight than in serum confirming the presence of more complex oligomers in saliva, previously identified as super HMW (S-HMW). Saliva is considered a potential source of novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of metabolic disorders. The assessment of total adiponectin and its oligomeric profiles in saliva samples may represent a promising biological marker for the analysis of metabolic diseases.

Abstract
The salivary microbiota has been linked to both oral and non-oral diseases. Scant knowledge is available on the effect of environmental factors such as long-term dietary choices on the salivary microbiota and metabolome. This study analyzed the microbial diversity and metabolomic profiles of the saliva of 161 healthy individuals who followed an omnivore or ovo-lacto-vegetarian or vegan diet. A large core microbiota was identified, including 12 bacterial genera, found in >98% of the individuals. The subjects could be stratified into three “salivary types” that differed on the basis of the relative abundance of the core genera Prevotella, Streptococcus/Gemella and Fusobacterium/Neisseria. Statistical analysis indicated no effect of dietary habit on the salivary microbiota. Phylogenetic beta-diversity analysis consistently showed no differences between omnivore, ovo-lacto-vegetarian and vegan individuals. Metabolomic profiling of saliva using 1H-NMR and GC-MS/SPME identified diet-related biomarkers that enabled a significant discrimination between the 3 groups of individuals on the basis of their diet. Formate, urea, uridine and 5-methyl-3-hexanone could discriminate samples from omnivores, whereas 1-propanol, hexanoic acid and proline were characteristic of non-omnivore diets. Although the salivary metabolome can be discriminating for diet, the microbiota has a remarkable inter-individual stability and did not vary with dietary habits. Microbial homeostasis might be perturbed with sub-standard oral hygiene or other environmental factors, but there is no current indication that a choice of an omnivore, ovo-lacto-vegetarian or vegan diet can lead to a specific composition of the oral microbiota with consequences on the oral homeostasis.

Abstract
Background Recent evidence suggests that a lower extent of the retronasal aroma release correspond to a higher amount of ad libitum food intake. This has been regarded as one of the bases of behavioral choices towards food consumption in obese people. In this pilot study we investigated the hypothesis that saliva from obese individuals could be responsible for an alteration of the retro-nasal aroma release. We tested this hypothesis in vitro, by comparing the release of volatiles from a liquid food matrix (wine) after its interaction with saliva from 28 obese (O) and 28 normal-weight (N) individuals. Methods and Findings Amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA V4 region indicated that Firmicutes and Actinobacteria were more abundant in O, while Proteobacteria and Fusobacteria dominated in N. Streptococcaceae were significantly more abundant in the O subjects and constituted 34% and 19% on average of the saliva microbiota of O and N subjects, respectively. The Total Antioxidant Capacity was higher in O vs N saliva samples. A model mouth system was used to test whether the in-mouth wine aroma release differs after the interaction with O or N saliva. In O samples, a 18% to 60% significant decrease in the mean concentration of wine volatiles was detected as a result of interaction with saliva, compared with N. This suppression was linked to biochemical differences in O and N saliva composition, which include protein content. Conclusion Microbiological and biochemical differences were found in O vs N saliva samples. An impaired retronasal aroma release from white wine was detected in vitro and linked to compositional differences between saliva from obese and normal-weight subjects. Additional in vivo investigations on diverse food matrices could contribute to understanding whether a lower olfactory stimulation due to saliva composition can be a co-factor in the development/maintenance of obesity.

Abstract
Castleman's disease (giant lymph node hyperplasia, angiofollicular hyperplasia, lymphoid hamartoma, benign giant lymphoma), is a quite rare and complex disease of lymphoid tissue that causes progressive lymph node enlargement, typically presenting as a solitary mediastinal mass. It was first described by Castleman et al in 1956. The head and neck regions are the second, less common site for this lesion. The preoperative diagnosis is very often extremely difficult and the routine investigations are often inconclusive. A multicentric extension of this disease shows poorer prognosis compared to the unifocal Histologically, three types do exist: the hyaline-vascular type, the plasma cell type and the mixed type. The etiology and pathogenesis is still unclear. In the literature, to our knowledge, only 112 cases have been reported involving head and neck, and only 22, including our own, interesting the parotid gland. In this report we describe a rare singular of Castleman's disease presenting as a tumor of the inferior pole of the parotid gland extending in the submandibular region, in a 35-year-old woman. The patient undergone a surgical treatment and, therefore, the mass was successfully totally removed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The two-stage surgical approach for implant placement first documented in 1977 by Brånemark, represents today the most used protocol for placing implants. AIM Aim of this prospective case series study was to compare the clinical and radiological performance of 12 edentulous jaws treated with of a modified prosthetic and surgical protocol for 3D software planning, guided surgery, immediate loading of implants inserted in edentulous jaws and extraction sockets and restored with Cad-Cam Zirconia and titanium full arch frameworks. PATIENTS AND METHODS This work was designed as a prospective case series study. Twelve patients have been consecutively rehabilitated with an immediately loaded implant supported fixed full prosthesis. A total of 72 implants, Nobel Replace Tapered Groovy; Nobel Biocare AB, Goteborg, Sweden) 26 of which were inserted in fresh extraction sockets, were inserted. Outcome measures were implants survival, radiographic marginal bone-levels and bone remodeling, soft tissue parameters and complications. RESULTS All patients reached 24 months follow-up, and no patients dropped out from the study. The cumulative survival rate was 100%; after 24 months mean marginal bone remodelling value was: 1.35 ± 0.25, mean PPD value was 2.75 ± 0.40 mm and mean BOP value was 3.8% ± 1.8%. Only minor prosthetic complications were recorded. CONCLUSIONS These data seem to validate this surgical and prosthetic protocol with valid results when applied in selected cases.

Abstract
The aim of the present retrospective chart review was to determine the relationship between nonvascularized osseous graft remodeling and the three-dimensional (3D) features of grafts and recipient sites, the anatomical recipient regions and different graft sources. 32 iliac crest or chin grafts were onlay-positioned in the mandible or maxilla of 14 patients. CT scans, taken before implant positioning and after 1 year, revealed a mean volume resorption of 35-51%. For iliac crest grafts, the average resorption was 42% when the onlay was positioned in the anterior maxilla and 59% when it was positioned in the posterior mandible. Spearman correlation and 3D interpolation analysis revealed, for both iliac crest groups, a moderate or advanced remodeling pattern depending on 3D features, namely graft thickness and shape, basal bone volume of recipient site, and the basal bone/graft volume ratio of the recipient site. No statistically significant differences were found between the recipient and donor site groups. Retrospective analysis of the data indicates that iliac crest grafts, onlay-positioned on adequate basal bone volume, may register a reduced volume remodeling when shaped thick in the anterior maxilla or rounded and convex, on the external surface, in the posterior mandible.

Abstract
Various skin incision for access to the parotid region are described by different authors, which differ in extension and localization of the scar. Therefore after parotidectomy, patients are often left with a retromandibular and cervical depression. Maintaining normal facial contour may be difficult in parotidectomy defects, but a good symmetry can and should be achieved when reconstructing the parotid region with a specific approach. The authors show their experience in parotid gland surgery using a new skin incision to improve the aesthetic and functional results and three different techniques the reconstruction of the parotid region.

Abstract
One hundred and one volatile compounds, reported in literature as powerful odorants of wine, were quantified by Gas Chromatography-Selective Ion Monitoring/Mass Spectrometry (GC-SIM/MS) in Primitivo, Aglianico, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon red wines. Wine samples were extracted by 3 different extraction methods: 1) separation of the alcoholic fraction from the aqueous phase by salting-out and subsequent extraction by liquid-liquid micro-extraction with 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane (Freon 113); 2) extraction by liquid-liquid micro-extraction with dichloromethane; 3) solid phase extraction (SPE cartridge: 800 mg of LiChrolut EN resin) with pentane-dichloromethane (20:1) and dichloromethane. The selection of the ion fragments used for quantification was directly performed on a red wine sample. For each compound the area of the corresponding peak was normalized respect to the peak of the internal standard and then interpolated in a calibration curve obtained analysing a model wine solution (water, ethanol, tartaric acid and known amounts of analytes and of internal standard). The methods showed a good linearity: r2>0.990, except for farnesol (isomer a and c), octanal, decanal, furaneol and phenylacetic acid with 0.966 < or = r2 < or = 0.990. The 7 most powerful odorants were: beta-damascenone, acetaldehyde, maltol, ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, 3-methylbutanoic acid and acetal; 7 other slightly less important were: ethyl hexanoate, ethyl acetate, 1-octen-3-ol, butanoic acid, rose oxide, furaneol and sotolon. The Aglianico wines were characterised by the major fermentation compounds (esters, fatty acids and 2-phenylethanol), beta-damascenone, beta-ionone and linalool. The Primitivo wines were characterized by furaneol, methoxypyrazine, gamma-nonalactone and acetaldehyde, while Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot wines principally by cask derivates (vanillin, (Z) 3-methyl-gamma-octalactone [(Z) wiskylactone], maltol and eugenol), some aldehydes and 3-isopropyl-2-methoxypyrazine.

Abstract
Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis by Selective Ion Monitoring (SIM) was applied to quantify 4-Hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone (HDMF) in both red and white wines obtained from some Italian cultivar of Vitis vinifera. Wines were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction performed with 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane (Freon 113). The ion m/z 128 was used for quantification while the ion m/z 129 as qualifier. Precision, linearity and accuracy of the method resulted satisfactory. Results showed a significant variation in the concentration of furaneol in wine with grape variety. Generally, HDMF concentrations in white wines were lower than in red wines. Among white wines, Chardonnay resulted characterized by the highest concentration of HDMF. Among red wines the highest concentrations of HDMF were detected in Primitivo and Refosco varieties.

Abstract
Two vinification methods involving different degrees of antioxidant protection of Falanghina must during prefermentative steps, and referred as HAMP (high antioxidant must protection) and LAMP (low antioxidant must protection), were compared in terms of fermentation performances of four different yeast strains, composition of the volatile fraction of wines at the end of alcoholic fermentation, and shelf life of wines during storage. The use of HAMP technology resulted in wines with lower volatile acidity and higher concentrations of medium-chain fatty acid ethyl esters, acetates, and volatile fatty acids. For two of the four strains a lower concentration of isoamyl alcohol was also observed. HAMP wines also revealed increased shelf life because of the higher concentration of odor active esters at the end of storage and better preservation of varietal aromas.

Abstract
AIMS Seventy-eight strains of lactic acid bacteria belonging to five genera and showing six different phenotype combinations of Lac (lactose fermentation), Prt (proteolytic activity) and Cit (citrate degradation) characters were investigated for their main flavouring properties with the aim to detect variability among and within the groups. METHODS AND RESULTS High resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of neutral volatile compounds produced in whey showed that, considering both neo-formation compounds and substances quantified in the whey cultures at different concentrations in comparison to the extract from sterile whey, the groups of lactococci, enterococci, thermophilic streptococci and mesophilic lactobacilli produced a higher number of volatiles than thermophilic lactobacilli and leuconostocs. Applying principal component analysis (PCA) to the results, enterococci, mesophilic lactobacilli and thermophilic streptococci showed a broad diversity, while lactococci included rather similar strains as well as strains with special flavouring properties. Applying PCA to thermophilic streptococci and enterococci, to lactococci and enterococci, to lactococci and thermophilic streptococci, or to mesophilic and thermophilic lactobacilli, the strains gathered consistently with their systematic position. CONCLUSION The study evidenced strains producing some volatile compounds responsible for food flavouring. Flavouring properties were variable among the systematic groups and in some cases different within the same bacterial group. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The potential of the findings is discussed with reference to the development of flavouring adjuncts for the dairy industry.

Abstract
Volatile concentrates were obtained by vacuum distillation from both natural and creamy Gorgonzola cheese and isolated by continuous liquid-liquid extraction. Both were analysed by high resolution gas chromatography (HRGC), HRGC-mass spectrometry and HRGC-olfactometry. A total of 63 components were identified in the neutral extract of the natural type (21 esters, 13 ketones, 14 alcohols, 5 aldehydes, 1 sulphur compound, 7 aromatic compounds and 2 terpenes) and 52 in the creamy type (17 esters, 12 ketones, 10 alcohols, 5 aldehydes, 1 sulphur compound, 5 aromatic compounds and 2 terpenes). Ketones, whose major components were 2-nonanone and 2-heptanone, were the predominant constituents of the neutral fraction. By olfactometric analysis of the neutral extracts, 23 odour-impact compounds were found in the natural and 21 in the creamy Gorgonzola cheese. 1-Octen-3-ol, ethyl hexanoate, 2-nonanone, 2-heptanone, 2-heptanol, ethyl butanoate, 2-nonanol and 4-methylanisole were the key odorants of the natural cheese, whereas 2-heptanone, 2-heptanol, ethyl butanoate, 3-methyl thiopropanal and an unidentified constituent with a fruity odour were characteristic of the creamy Gorgonzola cheese. On the basis of high odour unity values, 2-nonanone, 1-octen-3-ol, 2-heptanol, ethyl hexanoate, methylanisole and 2-heptanone were the most important odorants of natural and creamy Gorgonzola cheese aroma.

Abstract
If the nodes are involved, survival of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue is considerably reduced. Surgery remains the treatment of choice and, to define its role, we have reviewed 82 consecutive cases. Sixty-two cases (76%) were T1-2, and 46 patients (56%) had involved nodes. The cervical region II was the most often involved (n=26). Occult nodal metastases were present in 12 cases. The extent of nodal spread and prognosis varies according to whether the body or the base of the tongue is involved. Lesions of the base with involved node should be treated by a selective posterolateral neck dissection, whilst in the case of a lesion of the body of the tongue, the dissection should be selective anterolateral. In lesions of the base, when there are no nodes involved, a prophylactic selective posterolateral neck dissection is recommended, whilst in the case of the lesions of the body, selective supraomohyoid neck dissection in T2-4 lesions is recommended.

Abstract
Nodal involvement in squamous cell carcinoma considerably lowers survival rate. Despite its importance, neck management has still not been adequately explored. The Authors have retrospectively reviewed the records of 112 cases. Unilateral N+ were treated with a homolateral therapeutic and a controlateral prophylactic neck dissection; bilateral N+ were treated with a bilateral therapeutic neck dissection. On first observation the majority of cases (66.1%) were T1-2, N+ patients accounted for 45.5%. Among N- patients, 21.3% of occult nodal metastases were observed. The 5-year survival rate was 52.7%. With N+ lesions, a radical neck dissection should be performed; the dissection should be performed bilaterally. With N- lesions a prophylactic modified radical neck dissection is recommended in T2-4 lesions.

Abstract
Twelve previously untreated cases of oral cancer with perineural infiltration were studied retrospectively. Age, sex, site, clinical stage and outcome were evaluated. Management of the neoplasm in each case involved surgical removal and six patients required adjuvant radiotherapy. The most frequent site was the lip. At the time of diagnosis, five patients had sensory complaints and palpable lymphadenopathy was observed in three patients. The 5-year crude survival rate was 16.7%. In the cases with postoperative assessment of perineural infiltration, a median survival time of 30.8 months was observed; while in the case of preoperative assessment of nerve infiltration, extensive surgery was performed with a consequent median survival time of 44.5 months. The perineural infiltration of the lower alveolar nerve is more common (6.3%) than is generally thought. This frequency is due to the relationship with the lower lip and the mandibular region. In carcinoma of the lip, spread is generally limited to 10-15 mm along the lower alveolar nerve. In carcinoma of the mandibular region, spread is entirely dependent on the location of the tumour; the absence of clinical fixation to the bone and the small size of the carcinoma does not preclude the possibility of bone involvement. Neurological symptoms should be evaluated carefully, and a radiographic investigation of the nerve canal is mandatory.

Abstract
Swelling of the floor of the mouth is sometime difficult to diagnose clinically. Lithiasis and neoplasm are the most frequent causes of intraoral swelling. Also after plain radiology and computed tomography the diagnosis is often dubious. A case of swelling of the floor of the mouth due to an adenoid cystic carcinoma of the sublingual gland is reported.
