Abstract
Lichenoid contact lesions (LCLs) frequently develop in close contact with amalgam restorations and may regress after amalgam removal, especially when patch testing is positive to amalgam components. However, established criteria to define true LCLs healing are missing and clinical disappearance of the lesion may not always correspond to a complete regression of histological lichenoid tissue reaction. Similarly to other lichenoid lesions of the oral cavity, LCLs are included among potentially malignant disorders although its malignant transformation remains controversial. As a result, with no clear indications for neoplastic risk assessment, the management of patients with LCLs may be challenging. The present report describes the unusual case of an oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) arising in the same site where 6 years before an amalgam-associated LCL had clinically and histologically healed after restoration replacement. A review of the few literature reports of amalgam-associated LCLs developing to OSCC is also provided.

Abstract
Background:Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) is a rare and life-threatening connective tissue disease with multiple organ impairment. Cardio-pulmonary involvement is common: pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension (PH), and electrical disorders are the most serious complications and causes of increased mortality.Objectives:We evaluated features related with the onset and development of PH in a cohort of SSc patients. We further studied ecocardiographic abnormalities, by means of 2D-speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) with specific reference to the right ventricular strain measure (RV-strain).Methods:We analyzed data from 50 SSc patients (pts) referred to our University-based Rheumatology Centre and SSc Unit from January 2007 to June 2019 (F/M 45/5; lc/dcSSc 45/5; mean age 59.20±14.357 years; mean disease duration 12.08±8.75 years). All pts underwent general and cardio-pulmonary assessment in our Cardio-Rheumatology Clinic. The following parameters were considered: blood exams, in particular inflammation indexes, uric acid test and serum autoantibodies; pulmonary function tests; high resolution scan of the lungs (HRCT); standard electrocardiogram (ECG) and RV-strain measured by 2D-STE. These examinations were performed according to clinical picture and current methodologies. We compared SSc subjects with (10/50) and without (40/50) PH diagnosis during follow-up regardless of treatments.Results:SSc pts with PH didn’t show significant alterations concerning RV-strain if compared with pts without PH (p=0.707). Nevertheless, RV-strain value was modified in relation to TAPSE alterations in all pts but this data correlated with right ventricular dilatation only in PH subjects. Furthermore, interesting significant values about dilatation of right and left atria (p=0.007, p=0.048), dilatation of inferior vena cava (p=0.037) and right ventricle (p=0.023) were observed. Left ventricular hypertrophy (p=0.012) as well as valvular insufficiencies (mitral and aortic) were more frequent in PH group too (p=0.016). These pts showed higher incidence of skin ulcers (p=0.0001), higher values of blood pressure (p=0.004), elevated uric acid levels (p=0,027) and anti-centromere antibodies positivity (p=0.0001).Conclusion:Our research provides further evidence of the prognostic value of echocardiographic findings in SSc subjects, with focus on PH. Population enlargement is ongoing in order to identify more accurate results about RV-strain, considering the efficacy of PH treatments on cardiac contractility. Speckle tracking echocardiography proves to be a sensitive, low-cost, non-invasive and reliable tool to detect early cardiac impairment in Ssc, full of potential future prospects.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Heavy metal bioaccumulation in honey bee matrix, an indicator to assess the contamination level in terrestrial environments. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2020; 256:113388.

Abstract
The most significant risk factor for organisms living in an environment contaminated by heavy metals is the metal bioavailability. Therefore, an efficient ecotoxicological approach to metal contamination is the measure of bioaccumulation level in target organisms. In this work, we characterized the heavy metal bioaccumulation in honey bees, Apis mellifera ligustica, collected at 35 sites from Umbria (Central Italy). The comparison of our data with selected Italian investigations revealed metal bioaccumulation in honey bee matrix of the same order of magnitude, with Cd showing a higher variability. To generalize the results, we developed a Honeybee Contamination Index (HCI) based on metal bioaccumulation in honey bees. An application of the HCI to the present dataset revealed cases of low (sixteen sites), intermediate (eighteen sites), and high (one site) metal contaminations. The comparison of HCI values from the Umbrian dataset with values calculated for other Italian and European metadata showed that most of the Umbrian sites fell in the portion of low and intermediate contamination conditions. HCI represented a reliable tool that provided a piece of concise information on metal contamination in terrestrial environments. Parallel to this effort, we have determined, the metal concentrations in the airborne particulate matter (PM10) at three regional background-monitoring stations in Umbria. These stations are representative of the average air quality of the areas of the investigated apiaries. A comparative analysis of metal enrichment factors in PM10, and honey bees suggested that the contamination in the bees was related to the PM10 values only to a minor extent. On the other side, a clear enrichment of metals such as Cd, Mn, Zn, and Cu in the honey bees appeared to depend on very local conditions and was probably related to the use of pesticides and fertilizers, and the resuspension of the locally contaminated soils and agriculture residues.

Abstract
This study proposed the General Health Index of Cheese (GHIC) as an indicator for the presence of health-promoting compounds in cheese and compared the antioxidant capacity and phenolic and fatty acid contents of cheeses from goats consuming 7 forage species. Ninety-one homogeneous Red Syrian goats were randomly assigned to 1 of 7 feeding treatments (Festuca arundinacea, Hordeum vulgare, Triticosecale, Pisum sativum, Trifolium alexandrinum, Vicia sativa, and Vicia faba minor). The housed goat groups received the scheduled forage ad libitum. Forage species affected the antioxidant capacity, the phenolic and fatty acid contents, the Health Promoting Index, and the GHIC. Trifolium alexandrinum, Triticosecale, and Hordeum vulgare showed a clear advantage in terms of beneficial fatty acids content in goat cheese. Cheese from the Triticosecale group also showed a high antioxidant capacity value even if its polyphenol content was intermediate compared with others. Trifolium alexandrinum and Triticosecale had the highest value of the new index GHIC. This comparison suggests that there are important differences in fatty acid profile and polyphenol content among cheeses from goats fed grasses and legumes commonly used in the Mediterranean area. In this first approach, GHIC index, which combines the positive components found in cheese, seems to be a useful tool to provide an indication concerning the general health value of the product.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Direct aspiration is a recognized technique for revascularization in large-vessel ischemic strokes. There is ongoing debate regarding its efficacy compared with stent retrievers. Every delay in achieving revascularization and a decrease in reperfusion rates reduces the likelihood of patients achieving functional independence. We propose a standardized setup technique for aspiration-first for all anterior circulation thrombectomy procedures for increasing speed and recanalization rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed 127 consecutive patients treated by a standardized approach to thrombectomy with an intention to perform aspiration-first compared with 127 consecutive patients treated with a stent retriever-first approach. Key time metrics evaluated included groin to first angiogram, first angiogram to reperfusion, groin to first reperfusion, and length of the procedure. The degree of successful recanalization (TICI 2b-3) and the number of passes were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS In 127 patients who underwent the standardized technique, the median time from groin puncture to first reperfusion was 18 minutes compared with 26 minutes (P < .001). The duration of the procedure was shorter compared with the stent retriever group (26 minutes in the aspiration first group versus 47 minutes, P < .001) and required fewer passes (mean, 2.4 versus 3.1; P < .05). A higher proportion of patients had a TICI score of 2b-3 in the aspiration-first group compared with stent retriever group (96.1% versus 85.8%, P < .005). CONCLUSIONS Our study highlights the increasing speed and recanalization rates achieved with fewer passes in a standardized approach to thrombectomy with an intention to attempt aspiration-first. Any attempt to reduce revascularization time and increase successful recanalization should be used.

Abstract
The aim of this article was to characterise the performance of four different digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) systems in terms of dose and image quality parameters. One of them, GE Pristina, has never been tested before. Average glandular doses were measured both in DBT and 2D full field digital mammography mode. Several phantoms were employed to perform signal difference to noise ratio, slice sensitivity profile, slice to slice incrementation, chest wall offset, z-axis geometry, artefact spread function, low contrast detectability, contrast detail evaluations, image uniformity and in-plane MTF in chest wall-nipple and in tube-travel directions. There are many differences in DBT systems explored: the angular range, detector type, reconstruction algorithms, and the presence or not of the grid. Even if it is not simple to calculate a global figure of merit, the analysis of all the collected data can be useful in a contest of a quality assurance program to define a set of values that could be used as benchmarks.
