Abstract
The concomitant presentation of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) and ocular myasthenia gravis is well documented. In the course of Graves disease (GD), symptomatic transient neuromuscular junction disorder may occur due to the effect of thyroid hormones at the neuromuscular synapse. Diagnostic clues are the clinical and electrophysiologic remission synchronous with restoration of euthyroidism. Furthermore, the occurrence of thymic hyperplasia in GD poses further diagnostic and therapeutic considerations. These points are discussed in the case report of a 43-year-old male patient suffering from TAO and transient neuromuscular junction disorder due to GD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is often complicated by steatotic liver disease, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and extrahepatic cancer. We investigated whether FIB-4, an indicator of liver fibrosis, is associated with a higher risk of CVD and extrahepatic cancer history in T2DM. METHODS Two hundred and nine of 244 diabetics admitted to our center in one year were included and retrospectively evaluated. RESULTS One hundred and fifty-two (72.7%) were males and 57 (27.3%) females. The mean age and FIB-4 were 64.3 ± 11 years, and 1.15 ± 0.5, respectively. One hundred and fifty patients (71.8%) had FIB-4 ≤ 1.3, and 59 (28.2%) had FIB-4 > 1.3. A history of CVD was presented in 76 (36.4%) patients, and of extrahepatic cancer in 39 (18.7%). Patients with CVD were significantly older than those without (68.4 ± 8.5 vs. 63.2 ± 11.5 years; p = 0.002), with significantly higher FIB-4 (1.26 ± 0.5 vs. 1.08 ± 0.5; p = 0.012). Patients with cancer were older, with higher FIB-4 compared to those without (68.2 ± 9.5 vs. 64.4 ± 10.9 years; p = 0.098 and 1.37 ± 0.6 vs. 1.1 ± 0.5; p = 0.004, respectively). FIB-4 > 1.3 was associated with a 2.1-fold probability for CVD (χ2 = 5.810; p = 0.025) and 2.7-fold probability for cancer history (χ2 = 7.603; p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS FIB-4 ≥ 1.3 is associated with a higher probability of CVD or extrahepatic cancer history. FIB-4 could potentially discriminate patients at risk, justifying stricter surveillance.

Abstract
As populations age, chronic diseases accumulate, and new health conditions emerge. One noteworthy pair that warrants further evaluation is diabetes mellitus and sarcopenia, given that the latter occurs in 28 % of the population aged over 50 who have diabetes mellitus. The management of both entails nutritional interventions, making the development of unified dietary recommendations an alluring strategy. This review aims to elucidate the current recommendations for the combined management of sarcopenia and diabetes, while featuring elements that require further research. The goal of nutritional management is to improve muscle mass and strength while regulating metabolic risk and glucose levels. To ensure muscle synthesis in the elderly, recommendations align at daily calorie intake that exceeds 30 kcal/kg, with adjustments based on comorbidities. Additionally, a protein intake of at least 1-1.2 g/kg/d is essential, emphasizing both daily and per-meal intake, and can be achieved through diet or branched-amino-acids supplements. Specific considerations for diabetes include restricted protein intake in diabetic nephropathy and exploring the potential link between branched amino acids and insulin resistance. Further recommendations that both promote metabolic health and have demonstrated at least a potential to increase muscle strength include prioritizing polyunsaturated fatty acids as a fat source and maintaining adequate levels of vitamin D. Clinicians should consult their patients on dietary optimization, but evidence is insufficient to recommend additional supplementation. Lastly, an emerging challenge of diabetes and sarcopenia is sarcopenic obesity, which requires the combination of a hypocaloric diet with increased protein intake.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate whether there is an association between age at menarche (AAM) and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted, including 5390 pregnant women who were screened for GDM at Alexandra Hospital in Athens, Greece over a 15-year period (2000-2014). Maternal age, pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), height, family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus, parity, educational and smoking status, and AAM were recorded. The results were expressed as odds ratios (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (95% CI). RESULTS Pregnant women with GDM experienced earlier menarche compared to normoglycemic women (12.9 ± 1.5 vs 13.1 ± 1.6, p < 0.001, respectively). The OR for a woman with AAM <12 years to develop GDM was 1.08 (95% CI 1.03-1.14), while the OR to be obese was 1.70 (95% CI 1.50-1.90). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that AAM is a risk factor for GDM. However, that effect was lost after adjusting for BMI. CONCLUSION Early AAM may be associated with an increased risk of GDM. Therefore, it can be used to identify high-risk women and implement preconception interventions for GDM prevention. Future studies should be conducted to confirm these findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this retrospective study was to compare glycemic control, pregnancy outcomes, and neonatal outcomes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) treated with (a) insulin detemir and (b) insulin neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH). METHODS A total of 192 women with GDM were included in the analysis. Ninety-eight women received detemir, while 94 women received NPH. Data regarding medical history, glycemic control, and time and mode of delivery, as well as neonatal outcomes, were recorded. RESULTS Baseline characteristics were comparable between the two groups. There were no differences with respect to the week of insulin initiation, total insulin dose, duration of insulin therapy, daily insulin dose/weight in early and late pregnancy, or the number of insulin injections per day. Maternal overall weight gain during pregnancy and weight gain per week did not differ either. The detemir group had slightly lower HbA1c levels at the end of gestation [median: det 5.2% (33 mmol/mol) vs NPH 5.4% (36 mmol/mol), p=0.035). There were no cases of hypoglycemia or allergic reactions in the two groups. There were also no differences regarding neonatal outcomes according to the available data, given that data in some cases were missing. CONCLUSION The use of insulin detemir was found to be equally effective and safe compared to NPH in women with GDM.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate whether maternal cigarette smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for developing GDM. METHODS MEDLINE, Scopus, CENTRAL and Google Scholar databases were searched from inception to December 2022 to identify eligible original articles. A systematic review and meta-analysis (weighted data, random-effects model) were performed. The primary outcome was the development of GDM in pregnant women. The results were expressed as odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) (inverse variance method). Subgroup analysis was planned according to the maternal smoking status and GDM diagnostic criteria. Statistical heterogeneity was checked with the Chi-squared (Chi2) test and the I2 index was used to quantify it. The studies were evaluated for publication bias. RESULTS Thirty-five studies, including 23,849,696 pregnant women, met the inclusion criteria. The pooled OR of smoking during pregnancy compared with non-smoking (never smokers and former smokers) was 1.06 (95% CI 0.95-1.19), p = 0.30; I2 = 90%; Chi2 = 344; df=34; p < 0.001. Subgroup analysis was performed according to the two-step Carpenter-Coustan diagnostic criteria, due to the high heterogeneity among the other applied methods. The pooled OR for the Carpenter-Coustan subgroup was 1.19 (95% CI 0.95-1.49), p = 0.12; I2 = 63%; Chi2 = 27; df=10; p < 0.002. Further subgroup analysis according to maternal smoking status was not performed due to missing data. CONCLUSION There is no evidence to support an association between maternal cigarette smoking during pregnancy and the risk for GDM. Universally accepted diagnostic criteria for GDM must be adopted to reduce heterogeneity and clarify the association between smoking and GDM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emotional eating (EE) is a disordered eating behaviour which may lead to overeating. It is not clear whether EE presents to an equal degree among adults, regardless of their body mass index (BMI) status. The aim of this study was to assess whether there is a difference in degree of EE between adults with healthy weight, overweight and obesity. METHODS MEDLINE and APA PsycINFO databases were searched from inception up to January 2022 for studies that reported EE scores from validated questionnaires. The quality of all included studies was assessed using the AXIS tool. Meta-analysis used random effects and standardised mean difference (SMD). Heterogeneity was investigated using I2 statistics and sensitivity analyses. RESULTS A total of 11 studies with 7207 participants were included in the meta-analysis. Degree of EE was greater in adults with a BMI above the healthy range, compared to adults with a healthy BMI (SMD 0.31, 95% CI 0.17 to 0.45; I2 = 85%). However, subgroup analysis found that degree of EE was greater only in adults with obesity (SMD 0.61, 95% CI 0.41 to 0.81; I2 = 62%), and there was no difference in degree of EE between adults with overweight and those with a healthy BMI. CONCLUSIONS Degree of EE is greater among adults living with obesity, compared to adults with a healthy BMI, indicating a need for behavioural support to support EE among people living with obesity seeking weight management. Future research should examine the long-term effectiveness of interventions for EE.

Abstract
AIM To compare the kinetics of neutralizing antibodies (NΑbs) against SARS-CoV-2 after vaccination with the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine (Comirnaty, Pfizer/BioNTech) between patients with T2DM and healthy controls. METHODS NAb levels after the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine were compared between 50 patients with non-insulin treated T2DM and 50 age-, gender-, and BMI-matched healthy controls up to 3 months after the second dose. The median age of both groups was 70 years. RESULTS On day 1, mean NAbs of the control and T2DM groups were 14.64% (standard error, SE = 2.30) and 14.04% (SE = 2.14), respectively (p value = 0.926). Three weeks later, the mean NAb values were 39.98% (SE = 3.53) in the control group and 40.97% (SE = 3.99) in participants with T2DM (p value = 0.698). One month after the second vaccination, mean NAb values increased to 87.13% (SE = 2.94) in the control group and 89.00% (SE = 2.18) in the T2DM group. Three months after the second vaccine dose, the mean inhibitory titers decreased to 83.49% (SE = 3.82) (control group) and 76.36% (SE = 3.33) (T2DM group). On all occasions, no significant difference was found between the two groups (all p values > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patients with T2DM present similar immunological response to COVID-19 BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine to that of healthy subjects.

Abstract
According to Greek mythology, the spring waters of Salmacis (or Salmakis) feminized the god Hermaphroditus (or Hermaphroditos) and transformed his nature from male to half-male and half-female. The mythical properties of these waters are described in the writings of authors and philosophers of the Hellenistic period. It is evident that the spring of Salmacis and lake actually existed (located in Halicarnassus, today Bodrum, Turkey) and are not the product of poetic imagination. Hence, it could be hypothesized that there were certain natural elements in the waters that had a feminizing effect on the male reproductive axis. We now know, in fact, that naturally occurring environmental agents, also known as endocrine disruptors, can affect the endocrine and reproductive function of both males and females. However, since most endocrine disruptors today are manmade products of the modern industrial lifestyle, the presence and effect of naturally occurring disruptors in times preceding the Industrial Revolution are not widely discussed. It is thus against this background that we seek to formulate a differential diagnosis of male feminization attributable to the effect of natural environmental factors in the form of endocrine disruptors that will have existed in environments round the globe since time immemorial. We conclude that if there had been an accumulation of the mycotoxin zearalenone (ZEA) in the waters of Salmacis, chronic exposure to the lake's water could have resulted in the phenotypic changes described in the Salmacis myth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the main cause of death in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Although hyperuricemia has been associated with multiple CV complications, it is not officially recognized as a target parameter for CVD risk reduction. AIM To systematically review the literature in order to determine whether treating hyperuricemia with allopurinol in patients with T2D reduces CVD risk. METHODS A thorough literature search in the PubMed, CENTRAL, and EMBASE databases from inception to August 2022 was performed. After application of selection criteria, 6 appropriate studies were identified. RESULTS Detailed analysis of the data derived indicated that there is an association between allopurinol treatment and CV benefits, resulting in a reduced risk of CVD events and mortality rates. This association can be attributed mainly to the reduction of inflammation and oxidative burden, as well as to the improvement of glycemic and lipid profiles. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review provides evidence that allopurinol may reduce CVD risk in patients with T2D. Randomized, placebo-controlled trials should be performed in order to confirm these findings and identify specific subgroups of patients who will benefit most.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is the most powerful and promising tool against the COVID-19 pandemic. Millions of people have been vaccinated worldwide. Recently, few cases of subacute thyroiditis following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination with various types of vaccine have been reported. We describe here a 36-year-old woman who presented with subacute thyroiditis 10 days after she had received her first dose of the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine Comirnaty (Pfizer/BioNTech); the condition receded but then recurred 10 days after she received her second dose. As vaccination programmes proceed, clinicians' attention and vigilance for such cases will be increased. Physicians need to know that subacute thyroiditis is a mild and self-limiting condition in the majority of cases. Last but not least, the benefits of vaccination against COVID-19 outweigh the side-effects reported so far. A 36-year-old woman presented subacute thyroiditis after the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine. It receded but recurred after the 2nd dose. It is usually a mild and self-limiting condition . Benefits of vaccination against COVID-19 outweigh side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This is the first study, that aimed: a) to compare immune response, namely the kinetics of neutralizing antibodies (Nabs), after vaccination with BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine (Comirnaty, Pfizer/BioNTech) between patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and controls, and b) to investigate changes in thyroid function in healthy subjects with no history of thyroid dysfunction before and after vaccination with BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine (Comirnaty, Pfizer/BioNTech). METHODS The entire study consisted of two sub-studies. In the first sub-study, NAbs levels after BNT162b2 mRNA vaccination were compared between 56 patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and 56 age and gender-matched healthy controls from the day of the first dose until a period of up to three months after the second dose. In the second sub-study, thyroid hormones (T3, T4, TSH) and thyroid auto-antibodies levels (anti-TG, anti-TPO) of 72 healthy subjects with no history of thyroid disease were examined before (D1) and one month after completion of the second dose (D50). RESULTS Among patients with autoimmune thyroiditis, the median neutralizing inhibition on D22, immediately before second dose, was 62.5%. One month later (D50), values increased to 96.7%, while three months after the second dose NAbs titers remained almost the same (94.5%). In the healthy group, median NAbs levels at D22 were 53.6%. On D50 the median inhibition values increased to 95.1%, while after three months they were 89.2%. The statistical analysis did not show significant differences between two groups (p-values 0.164, 0.390, 0.105 for D22, D50 and three months). Regarding changes in thyroid function, the mean value for T4 before vaccination was 89.797 nmol/L and one month after the second dose was 89.11 nmol/L (p-value=0.649). On D1 the mean T3 value was 1.464 nmol/L, which dropped to 1.389 nmol/L on D50 (p-value = 0.004). For TSH, mean levels were 2.064 mIU/ml on D1 and fell to 1.840 mIU/ml one month after the second dose (p-value=0.037). Despite decrease, all thyroid hormone levels remained within the normal range. No changes were found for anti-TPO or anti-TG. CONCLUSIONS This study provided evidence that patients with autoimmune thyroiditis present similar immunological response to COVID-19 BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine (Comirnaty, Pfizer/BioNTech) with healthy subjects, while vaccination may affect thyroid function.

Abstract
During the Golden Age of the Roman Empire, Rome was transformed into a magnificent city where architecture, the arts, and commerce flourished. An inconceivable amount of wealth was accumulated by a handful of noble families, while the masses starved. In such a context, moral values inevitably decline, while sexual mores are liberalized and ever more veer towards salacity. This reality was elegantly illustrated in short, often sarcastic poems known as epigrams. Herein, we present a case of a woman with enigmatic appearance of the external genitalia, exhibiting unrestrained homosexual activity, as described in an epigram by Marcus Valerius Martialis (a contemporary poet who lived in the 1st century AD). Based on the information provided in the ancient text, we formulate a differential diagnosis and deduce that this woman was, in fact, a case of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). To our knowledge, this is the earliest literary description worldwide of a case of CAH as a cause of homosexuality and unquenchable lust.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-grade internal carotid stenosis results in impaired flow dynamics in the ocular circulation that may lead to a rare clinical entity; ophthalmic ischemic syndrome (OIS). The aim of this study was to investigate hemodynamic changes in the ophthalmic circulation after carotid revascularization, assessed with duplex ultrasonography (DUS), and their potential impact on ocular function in patients suffering from OIS. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A systematic review of the literature was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines. Medline, Embase and Central databases were searched. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS The analysis included fourteen cohort studies (589 patients) reporting on the hemodynamic effect of carotid revascularization on the ophthalmic circulation using DUS. Eighty-five per cent of patients were treated for symptomatic carotid stenosis. The pre- and postoperative ophthalmological evaluation was recorded in four studies (227 out of 358 patients [63%] diagnosed with OIS). Reversed ophthalmic artery (OA) flow prior to carotid revascularization was present in 86 cases (24%). Following carotid revascularization, a significant increase in peak systolic velocity (PSV) (mean difference [MD] 14.712 cm/s, 95% confidence interval [CI] 10.566-18.858, P<0.001, I2=96%) and a significant anterograde restoration of flow in the OA (OR: 2.047, 95% CI: 1.72-2.42, P<0.001, Ι2=0%) were recorded. Carotid revascularization resulted in regression of ischemic symptoms in 93.1% of patients (95% CI: 56.4-99.3%), P=0.001, I2=82%). CONCLUSIONS Carotid revascularization may be associated with a significant flow restoration and PSV increase in the OA; as well as clinical improvement in ischemic ophthalmic symptoms in patients with OIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at increased risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D). It is thus recommended that an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) be performed after delivery. Recently, the use of glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) has been proposed as a simpler and faster method to diagnose glucose disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate whether HbA1c measurement can replace OGTT in the detection of prediabetes and T2D in women with a history of GDM. PATIENTS AND METHODS We studied 1336 women (35.3 ± 5.8 years old) with a history of GDM 16.6 ± 28.2 months after delivery. All women were evaluated through an OGTT and a simultaneous HbA1c measurement. American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria were used for the assessment of glucose disorders. Sensitivity and specificity of HbA1c were measured for the prediction of T2D and prediabetes, while Cohen's coefficient of agreement (k) was calculated. ROC analysis was performed to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of HbA1c. RESULTS Based on OGTT, 725 women (54.3%) were normal, 406 (30.4%) presented impaired fasting glucose (IFG), 48 (3.6%) impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), 74 (5.5%) combined IFG+IGT, and 83 presented with T2D (6.2%). By contrast, using HbA1c as a screening test, 1150 women (94.1%) were normal, while 49 (4.0%) had prediabetes and 23 (1.9%) T2D. Sensitivity of HbA1c for the diagnosis of prediabetes was 5.3% in comparison to OGTT, specificity was 99.2%, while for the diagnosis of T2D, the percentages were 29.6 and 100%, respectively. The consistency in classifying impaired glucose tolerance between HbA1c and OGTT was 59.7%. Cohen's coefficient of agreement was k = 0.116, indicating slight agreement. Performing a ROC curve, the optimal value of distinctive ability of HbA1c was 4.6% in the case of prediabetes, while for diabetes, it was 5.5%. CONCLUSION This study provided evidence that HbA1c can identify fewer women with prediabetes and T2D than OGTT, indicating that HbA1c cannot be recommended as an alternative post-pregnancy screening method.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate a probable impact of seasons on the diagnosis of GDM, as well as the specific effect of the environmental temperature on the diagnosis of this clinical entity. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two observational studies, one retrospective and one prospective, were conducted in a referral center. Study A included retrospectively 7618 pregnant women who underwent a 3-h 100 g OGTT during the 3rd trimester of gestation. Study B prospectively included 768 pregnant women tested in the 3rd trimester of gestation with a 75 g OGTT. Temperature was recorded every day at 09:00 h. RESULTS Retrospective Study A: GDM prevalence differed significantly by season: winter = 28.1%, summer = 39.2%, spring = 32.4% and autumn = 32.4% (P < 0.0001). The odds ratio for being diagnosed with GDM was much higher during summer 1.65 (95% CI: 1.43-1.90), with spring and autumn following with 1.23 (95% CI: 1.08-1.39) compared to winter. Glucose levels during OGTT were measured: significantly increased blood glucose values were observed at 60, 120 and 180 min in summer, which remained significant after adjustment for age, gestational age, BMI, weight gain during pregnancy and blood pressure. Prospective Study B: At temperatures above 25°C, the average glucose 60-min and 120-min levels were increased. The relative risk for abnormal glucose values at 60 min, when the environmental temperature increased over 25°C, was 2.2 (1.5-3.3). CONCLUSIONS GDM prevalence in Greece presents seasonal variation, with higher risk during summer due to post glucose load level variations. These variations could be attributed to differences in environmental temperature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of capillary blood 3-β-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) is a more precise method than urine ketones measurement for the diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis. Fasting ketonuria is common during normal pregnancy, while there is evidence that it is increased among pregnant women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) who are on a diet. 3HB levels have been related to impaired offspring psychomotor development. Reports with concomitant measurement of blood and urine ketones in women with GDM who followed a balanced diet are lacking. OBJECTIVE To compare the prevalence of fasting ketonemia and ketonuria in women with GDM following the Institute of Medicine diet instructions and assess their possible relation with metabolic parameters and therapeutic interventions. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS 180 women with GDM were studied. In each patient, in successive visits, capillary blood and urine ketones were simultaneously measured. The total measurements were 378, while the average number of measurements per patient was 2.1. RESULTS The prevalence of ketonuria was significantly higher than that of ketonemia (x(2)=21.33, p <0.001). Significantly higher mean 3HB levels were observed with respect to ketonuria severity (p=0.001). Bedtime carbohydrate intake was associated with significantly lower 3HB levels (p=0.035). Insulin treatment was associated with significant 3HB levels reduction (p=0.032). Body weight reduction per week between two serial visits was associated with increased 3HB levels (p=0.005). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that weight loss remained the only independent predictor of 3HB levels. CONCLUSIONS The presence of ketonemia was significantly lower than the presence of ketonuria. Weight loss per week was the only independent factor found to be associated with increased levels of 3HB. The clinical significance of this small increase requires further investigation.

Abstract
Cases of sexual reassignment in Greco-Roman antiquity, presenting as a pubertal female to male gender transformation, are described in the "classical"literature. Textual evidence concerning a case of androgynism, garnered by Diodorus Siculus, among other similar accounts, as an odd story of gender dispute in a court of justice, is provided in the present study. A medical interpretation of the data pertaining to this case has been attempted and is herein reported. The spontaneous virilization and post-pubertal gender inversion of the specific individual appears to have been caused by a defect either in 5α-reductase type 2 or in 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase genes and consequent deficient enzymatic activity.

Abstract
Recent accurate measurements of cosmic-ray (CR) species by ATIC-2, CREAM, and PAMELA reveal an unexpected hardening in the proton and He spectra above a few hundred GeV, a gradual softening of the spectra just below a few hundred GeV, and a harder spectrum of He compared to that of protons. These newly discovered features may offer a clue to the origin of high-energy CRs. We use the Fermi Large Area Telescope observations of the γ-ray emission from Earth's limb for an indirect measurement of the local spectrum of CR protons in the energy range ∼90 GeV-6 TeV (derived from a photon energy range 15 GeV-1 TeV). Our analysis shows that single power law and broken power law spectra fit the data equally well and yield a proton spectrum with index 2.68±0.04 and 2.61±0.08 above ∼200 GeV, respectively.

Abstract
Observations of occultations of bright γ-ray sources by the Sun may reveal predicted pair halos around blazars and/or new physics, such as, e.g., hypothetical light dark matter particles-axions. We use Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope (Fermi) data to analyze four occultations of blazar 3C 279 by the Sun on October 8 each year from 2008 to 2011. A combined analysis of the observations of these occultations allows a point-like source at the position of 3C 279 to be detected with significance of ≈3σ, but does not reveal any significant excess over the flux expected from the quiescent Sun. The likelihood ratio test rules out complete transparency of the Sun to the blazar γ-ray emission at a 3σ confidence level.

Abstract
Cases of sexual reassignment in classical antiquity, namely a female-to-male gender change occurring after childhood, are described in the literature. Textual evidence concerning these cases of androgynism and their symbolism as well as a comprehensive scholar analysis is provided in the present study. Μedical interpretation of these cases covers the entire spectrum of differential diagnosis of heterosexual puberty in pseudohermaphrodites characterized by genital ambiguity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the significance of the presence of thyroid peroxidase autoantibodies (anti-TPO Abs) in type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) pregnant women relative to the course of pregnancy and, especially, with regard to metabolic control, thyroid function, maternal complications and neonatal outcome. METHODS In a prospective observational study of 91 DM1 women with singleton pregnancies, anti-TPO, anti-thyroglobulin, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and free thyroxine index (T4/thyroid binding capacity) were measured in each trimester. At each visit, HbA1c, body mass index, and units of insulin per kilogram were recorded, as were complications and pregnancy outcome. RESULTS Twenty-one (27%) of the 78 women who met the inclusion criteria presented with positive anti-TPO Abs. There were no differences regarding glycemic control (HbA1c) or insulin dose. First-trimester TSH levels were significantly higher in the anti-TPO-positive group than in the anti-TPO-negative group. Finally, no differences were observed regarding diabetic or obstetric complications and neonatal outcome. CONCLUSION One fourth of DM1 pregnant women presented with positive anti-TPO Abs. However, the presence of anti-TPO Abs does not seem to be related with worse metabolic control or adverse pregnancy outcome. Further investigation is needed; meanwhile, the effort for early treatment of thyroid dysfunction and strict metabolic control in all DM1 women should be continued.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) has varying clinical course. We assessed trends in MTC presentation during the last 34 years. DESIGN Retrospective study. METHODS One hundred and fifty one patients (44.4% males) were followed for 0.934 years. Patients were classified according to year of diagnosis: group 1, 1977-2000 (n=53) and group 2, 2001-2011 (n=98). Extent of disease at diagnosis, during follow-up, number of surgeries, and pre- and postoperative calcitonin levels were recorded. RESULTS In total, 48.34% reported family history of MTC. Group 1 had larger tumors (median 1.70 (intraquartile range (IQR) 1.7) vs 1.1 (1.2) cm, P=0.045, Mann-Whitney), they presented less frequently micro-MTCs (27.8 vs 46.1%, P=0.045), and underwent more multiple surgeries (63.3 vs 20.0%, P<0.001). Group 1 had more frequently progressive disease (35.8 vs 12.2%, P=0.003) and distant metastasis at follow-up (39.7 vs 17.4%, P=0.017). Chronological group (HR 0.15, 95% CI 0.03-0.68, P=0.015) and distant metastases at follow-up (HR 0.07, 95% CI 0.015-0.30, P=0.001) were independently associated with 10-year disease progression (P<0.001). In sporadic cases, cervical lymph node invasion and distant metastases at diagnosis were more frequent in group 1 (72.7 vs 45.5%, P=0.032 and 27.3 vs 5%, P=0.019 respectively); disease stage at diagnosis was more advanced (P=0.004). They underwent more multiple surgeries (P<0.001), presented more frequently distant metastasis at follow-up (67.7 vs 20.0%, P=0.002), had less frequently remission, and more frequently progressive disease (21.4 vs 58.0% and 64.3 vs 14.0% respectively, P<0.001). Postoperative calcitonin levels were higher (P=0.024). CONCLUSIONS Recently, an increase in micro-MTCs is observed, while indices of invasiveness and persistence of disease are better. Increased awareness in familial cases, routine calcitonin measurements, and improved surgical procedures could be responsible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Genetic screening for ret mutation has become routine practice in the evaluation of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Approximately 25% of these tumours are familial, and they occur as components of the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 syndromes (MEN 2A and 2B) or familial MTC. In familial cases, the majority of mutations are found in exons 10, 11, 13, 14 or 15 of the ret gene. A rare mutation involving exon 8 (G533C) has recently been reported in familial cases of MTC in Brazil and Greece; some of these cases were originally thought to be sporadic. The aim of this study was to re-evaluate a series of sporadic cases of MTC, with negative family history, and screen them for germline mutations in exon 8. DESIGN AND PATIENTS Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral lymphocytes in 129 unrelated individuals who had previously been characterized as 'sporadic' based on the negative family history and negative screening for ret gene mutations. Samples were analysed in Applied Biosystems 7500 real-time PCR and confirmed by sequencing. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS The G533C exon 8 mutation was identified in 10 of 129 patients with sporadic MTC. Asymptomatic gene carriers were subsequently identified in other family members. CONCLUSION In our study, we found that 7·75% patients with apparently sporadic MTC do carry G533C mutation involving exon 8 of ret. We feel that there is now a need to include exon 8 mutation screening in all patients diagnosed as sporadic MTC, in Greece.

Abstract
In the literature of the Roman Era, a case of macrosomia and genital ambiguity in a newborn is described. Textual evidence concerning this case of androgynism and its symbolism is provided in the present study. Medical interpretation of such cases covers the entire spectrum of differential diagnosis of macrosomia concurrent with genital ambiguity. Female pseudohermaphroditism may be excluded from the differential diagnosis, as the adrenal cortex physiology of the female fetus renders the concurrence of overgrowth and androgen excess unlikely. It will therefore have been a case of 46XY disorder of sexual differentiation due to either fetal overgrowth syndromes (Beckwith-Wiedemann and Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndromes) or to mutations of the WT1 gene. Mutations of the WT1 gene are considered as the most probable diagnosis, resulting in genital ambiguity and macrosomia due to additional altered insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and IGF-II action.

Abstract
We measured separate cosmic-ray electron and positron spectra with the Fermi Large Area Telescope. Because the instrument does not have an onboard magnet, we distinguish the two species by exploiting Earth's shadow, which is offset in opposite directions for opposite charges due to Earth's magnetic field. We estimate and subtract the cosmic-ray proton background using two different methods that produce consistent results. We report the electron-only spectrum, the positron-only spectrum, and the positron fraction between 20 and 200 GeV. We confirm that the fraction rises with energy in the 20-100 GeV range. The three new spectral points between 100 and 200 GeV are consistent with a fraction that is continuing to rise with energy.

Abstract
Satellite galaxies of the Milky Way are among the most promising targets for dark matter searches in gamma rays. We present a search for dark matter consisting of weakly interacting massive particles, applying a joint likelihood analysis to 10 satellite galaxies with 24 months of data of the Fermi Large Area Telescope. No dark matter signal is detected. Including the uncertainty in the dark matter distribution, robust upper limits are placed on dark matter annihilation cross sections. The 95% confidence level upper limits range from about 10(-26) cm3 s(-1) at 5 GeV to about 5×10(-23) cm3 s(-1) at 1 TeV, depending on the dark matter annihilation final state. For the first time, using gamma rays, we are able to rule out models with the most generic cross section (∼3×10(-26) cm3 s(-1) for a purely s-wave cross section), without assuming additional boost factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the phenotypic and metabolic characteristics of pregnant women with one abnormal glucose value (OAV) in the OGTT compared to normals (N) and to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) subjects and also to test if the timing of the observed hyperglycemia is related to any difference in their phenotype. MATERIALS AND METHODS 7618 pregnant women underwent a 100g OGTT (N = 3813, OAV = 1290, GDM = 2515). The OAV Group was further subdivided according to the time of hyperglycemia: fasting OAV, 1h OAV and 2-3h OAV. Demographic data were recorded and indices of insulin sensitivity and secretion were calculated. RESULTS The OAV Group presented intermediate values in all demographic parameters and in indices of insulin sensitivity and secretion compared to N and GDM Groups (p < 0.01). Regarding the three OAV subgroups: OAV-Fasting was heavier, had increased HOMA-IR and lower HOMA-B index, than the other two. In contrast, the OAV-1h subgroup had the lower Stumvoll first and second phase indices compared to the others, and also the lowest ISSI (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Isolated hyperglycemia appeared to be heterogeneous. Fasting hyperglycemia was mainly characterized by increased hepatic insulin resistance and impaired basal insulin secretion, while OAV at 1h presented increased muscle insulin resistance and diminished stimulated insulin secretion.
