Abstract Cerebral lateralization involves information being processed differently by the brain’s two hemispheres and is often associated with behavioural laterality such as preferential use of right or left limbs. Despite having evolved widely in animals, laterality of limb use has been mostly studied in humans and other primates (e.g. handedness) and is relatively poorly understood in other taxa. Perhaps accordingly, the possibility of geographic variation in laterality has been...

Abstract Background An orthodontic device that moves teeth with pulsating force was invented and underwent a single center, controlled, clinical trial to test its safety and efficacy for treatment. The device has a custom-made thermo-plastic mouthpiece which fits over the teeth with an inflatable silicone element. A console that measures and controls the pulsating force level in real-time controls the air pressure that delivers...

Abstract Background The changes in bone homeostasis observed during pregnancy and lactation could result in alterations in the rate of orthodontic tooth movement, but research in human subjects presents significant ethical and practical limitations. Our aim was to compare the amount of orthodontic tooth movement between pregnant/lactating or not animals. Methods...

The attenuation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, at least in Italy, allows a gradual resumption of diagnostic and therapeutic activities for sleep respiratory disorders. The knowledge on this new disorder is growing fast, but our experience is still limited and when a physician cannot rely on evidence-based medicine, the experience of his peers can support the decision-making and operational process of reopening sleep laboratories. The aim of this paper is...

Background: Two pharmaceutical agents have been approved for treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF): pirfenidone and nintedanib. Objectives: We investigated the need of dose reduction in consecutive patients treated with nintedanib in relation to gender and body max index, comparing the population over and under 80 years of age. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the data of all consecutive IPF patients treated with nintedanib for at least 3 months. Data on age, gender, body max index,...

Abstract Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare but clinically aggressive hematologic malignancy, believed to originate from plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) although it possesses multilineage potentials. Due to the dismal prognosis, accurate and rapid diagnosis is critical for early management. The disease usually initially involves skin and bone marrow. Here we report the cytopathologic findings in a case of BPDCN involving the liver in a patient previously diagnosed...

Abstract Rationale Prior research suggests that the neural pathway from the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) to the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) mediates the attribution of incentive salience to Pavlovian reward cues. However, a causal role for the LHA and the neurotransmitters involved have not been demonstrated in this regard. Objectives ...

Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors markedly improve the clinical outcome of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), blast crisis in CML (CML-BC) still has a poor prognosis. Many chromosomal abnormalities have been reported in CML-BC and may contribute to therapeutic resistance, disease progression, and prognosis. Herein, we report a rare chromosome abnormality with der(16)t(1;16)(q12;q11.2) in CML-BC. It has been demonstrated that this chromosomal abnormality is associated with disease progression and poor...

Abstract Bifidobacterium longum, one of the main microorganisms in the human gut, is used as an adjunct to lactic acid starter cultures or sold as a probiotic product. Therefore, Bifidobacterium longum cell suspensions get freeze-dried with protective additives to prevent activity losses. To date, investigations covering growth and inactivation kinetics of Bifidobacterium longum during the whole process (cultivation, drying, and storage) have been lacking. In this study, the effect...

Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 19, Issue , January-December 2020. In terms of dose distribution, protons are more sensitive to range variations than photons due to their unique properties. The aim of this study was to develop a method to identify patient-specific robust proton beam angles for lung tumor irradiation by investigating the association between water equivalent thickness (WET) variation and inter-fraction motion-induced target dose degradation. Using 3-dimensional...

Abstract Phospholipases are important probes for understanding structure–function relationships of membrane proteins. Many neurotoxins have phospholipase activity, and they have been recognized to be potential therapeutic agents for biological warfare. Understanding the modes of action of these enzymes is important for the development of effective therapeutic strategies. Human secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) interact with cellular membranes and catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphate...
