Abstract
Abstract
Impaired left ventricular (LV) functional reserve has been shown to contribute to exercise intolerance in heart failure. Little is known about the role of left atrial (LA) functional response to exertion in this context. LA strain has recently emerged as a valuable diagnostic marker reflecting both LA and LV performance.
Aim
To investigate the association between LA strain response to exercise and exercise capacity across different stages of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Methods
Transthoracic echocardiography (including peak atrial longitudinal strain (PALS) and LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) assessment) was performed at rest and immediately post exercise test in 55 patients with stage A, 62 patients with stage B and 54 patients with stage C HFpEF.
Results
There was a progressive worsening of peak oxygen uptake from stage A through stage B to stage C, which was accompanied by a gradual impairment of changes from rest to exercise in PALS, GLS, tissue early diastolic velocity e', LA ejection fraction and E/e' ratio (Table 1). In multivariable analysis including LV and LA components of cardiac functional reserve, changes from rest to exercise in PALS (beta 0.34, SE 0.07, p<0.001), e' (beta 0.29, SE 0.07, p<0.001) and GLS (beta 0.17, SE 0.07, p=0.014) were among the independent correlates of exercise capacity. However, after adjustment for age, sex and beta-blocker treatment, only the former two remained statistically significant.
Conclusions
LA strain response to exercise progressively deteriorates from stage A through stage B to stage C HFpEF, and is independently associated with exercise capacity. Accordingly, it might be considered in the risk stratification of the transition from the asymptomatic phase to overt HFpEF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess various types of safety lancets in terms of blood volume and pain perception during capillary blood sampling, a routine finger-puncture procedure for obtaining a small amount of human blood for running various screening and diagnostic tests. METHODS Data were collected from 100 adult healthy volunteers following finger-puncture procedure. Four different types of safety lancets were tested (Acti-Lance, Prolance, Medlance Plus, and MediSafe Solo). Each type has its own versions, giving 16 different safety lancets in total. RESULTS A significant difference in the mean capillary blood volume was found between blade and needle equipped safety lancets. MediSafe Solo type lancet had no blade version, and hence its use was associated with the lowest mean collected capillary blood volume (42.4 μL). Acti-Lance and Medlance Plus type lancets had one blade version and the mean collected capillary blood volume was 82.2 and 99.0 μL, respectively. Prolance type lancet had two blade versions, and its use was associated with the highest mean capillary blood volume (118.3 μL). The level of pain intensity was evaluated as low by the majority of patients for all lancets. Medlance Plus was the least painful and Acti-Lance was the most painful type of safety lancet. On a 0-to-10 scale of pain, 75% of punctures were assessed by the participants at a level not exceeding 3 points. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that although all investigated safety lancets achieve adequate performance regarding the necessary capillary blood volume to run a diagnostic of test, lancets equipped with blades differ significantly from those equipped with needles in terms of the mean obtained capillary blood volume. Further, although all devices produced relatively low levels of pain, the amount of pain caused by blade versions of safety lancets has been found to be higher than that of needle versions.

Abstract
AIMS Decreased platelet responsiveness to acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) reported previously in diabetic patients could be attributed to patient-based, clinical, genetic and cellular factors. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of the genomic polymorphism on the platelet reactivity in diabetic patients treated with ASA. METHODS AND RESULTS The study cohort consisted of 295 Caucasians with diabetes type 2 who had been taking ASA tablets at the dose of 75 mg per day for at least 3 months for primary or secondary prevention of myocardial infarction (MI). Platelet reactivity analyzes were performed using VerifyNow ASA and PFA-100 assays. Genotyping for the selected 27 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within 19 genes was performed using a Sequenom iPLEX platform. The results indicate that the statistically significant differences in platelet reactivity were observed in the PFA-100 assay for SNPs in following genes: TXBA2R (rs1131882), ADRA2A (rs4311994), PLA2G7 (rs7756935) and 9p21.3 (rs10120688) (P = 0.02, P = 0.03, P = 0.02, P = 0.03, respectively, all significance levels corrected for multiple comparisons). When using the VerifyNow ASA test, a weak nominal statistical significance (i.e. before multiple comparison testing) was observed for two SNPs in the GPVI gene: rs1671152 and rs1613662 [P = 0.025 (0.5) for both SNPs, corrected for multiple comparisons test]. CONCLUSIONS The results from the present study suggest that the four analyzed genes may contribute to platelet reactivity measured with the PFA-100 assay in the diabetic population treated with ASA.

Abstract
This is a review of classical and novel concepts of drug delivery in particular diseases such as central nervous system disease, ophthalmic disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and others. Nowadays, scientists are trying to propose efficient and selective drugs for the site of action, with best acceptance of patients, that can be metabolized to non-toxic derivatives. Prodrugs, soft drugs, codrugs are designed to maximize the amount of active drugs that reaches the site of action, through changing the physicochemical, biopharmaceutical or pharmacokinetic properties of the parent drugs. For last years different concepts of drug delivery have been developed to achieve the best patients' tolerance of a drug that has no undesirable properties. It is established that future studies will ameliorate drug properties so as to achieve the best drug delivery system.

Abstract
In several iron-arsenide superconductors there is strong evidence for a fully gapped superconducting state consistent with either a conventional s-wave symmetry or an unusual s{+/-} state where the gap changes sign between the electron and hole Fermi-surface sheets. Here we report measurements of the penetration depth lambda(T) in very clean samples of the related iron-phosphide superconductor, LaFePO, at temperatures down to approximately 100 mK. We find that lambda(T) varies approximately linearly with T strongly suggesting the presence of gap nodes in this compound. Taken together with other data, this suggests the gap function is not universal for all pnictide superconductors.

Abstract
Numerous steatotic livers are discarded as unsuitable for transplantation because of their poor tolerance of ischemia-reperfusion(I/R). The injurious effects of angiotensin (Ang)-II and the benefits of Ang-(1-7) in various pathologies are well documented. We examined the generation of Ang II and Ang-(1-7) in steatotic and nonsteatotic liver grafts from Zucker rats following transplantation. We also studied in both liver grafts the effects of Ang-II receptors antagonists and Ang-(1-7) receptor antagonists on hepatic I/R damage associated with transplantation. Nonsteatotic grafts showed higher Ang II levels than steatotic grafts, whereas steatotic grafts showed higher Ang-(1-7) levels than nonsteatotic grafts. Ang II receptor antagonists protected only nonsteatotic grafts against damage, whereas Ang-(1-7) receptor antagonists were effective only in steatotic grafts. The protection conferred by Ang II receptor antagonists in nonsteatotic grafts was associated with ERK 1/2 overexpression, whereas the beneficial effects of Ang-(1-7) receptor antagonists in steatotic grafts may be mediated by NO inhibition. Our results show that Ang II receptor antagonists are effective only in nonsteatotic liver transplantation and point to a novel therapeutic target in liver transplantation based on Ang-(1-7), which is specific for steatotic liver grafts.

Abstract
Pallido-nigral spheroids associated with iron deposition have been observed in some aged clinically normal nonhuman primates. In humans, similar findings are observed in neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation diseases, which, in some cases, show associated mutations in pantothenate kinase 2 gene (PANK2). Here we present an aged gorilla, 40 years old, suffering during the last 2 years of life from progressive tetraparesis, nystagmus, and dyskinesia of the arms, hands, and neck, with accompanying abnormal behavior. The postmortem neuropathologic examination revealed, in addition to aging-associated changes in the brain, numerous corpora amylacea in some brain areas, especially the substantia nigra, and large numbers of axonal spheroids associated with iron accumulation in the internal globus pallidus. Sequencing of the gorilla PANK2 gene failed to detect any mutation. The clinical, neuropathologic, and genetic findings in this gorilla point to an age-related pallido-nigral degeneration that presented PKAN-like neurologic deficits.

Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning renders the liver more tolerant to ischemia-reperfusion injury in warm and cold ischemia-reperfusion models. In general, the application of a 5 to 10-minute period of ischemia followed by 10 minutes of reperfusion confers early effective protection to the liver. Mechanisms responsible for this endogenous protective effect include: (1) transient nitric oxide production during liver preconditioning; (2) diminution of toxic reactive species generated on reperfusion; (3) remote effect on extrahepatic organs such as lung, kidney, and pancreas; (4) preservation of energy metabolism during ischemia; and (5) involvement of nuclear transcription factor and others.

Abstract
A study was carried out in northeastern Italy during 2000 and 2001 to investigate the occurrence of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in animals, cattle, pigs, and broilers, and raw meat, beef, pork, and chicken. Campylobacter spp. were detected in 53.9% of the cattle, 63.5% of the pigs, and 82.9% of the broilers examined. Chicken meat was frequently contaminated (81.3%), while lower rates were found in pork meat (10.3%) and beef (1.3%). The resistance to antibiotics of the strains was also investigated, and compared to that of human clinical isolates. C. coli was generally more resistant than C. jejuni. Resistance to quinolones was frequently observed in C. coli isolated in chicken meat (78.6%); slightly lower rates were found in C. jejuni isolated in broilers (42.2%), chicken meat (52.8%), and humans (38.2%). C. coli was also frequently resistant to tetracycline in all sources, while resistance to streptomycin was most frequently observed in pig isolates (89.4%).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To compare in a phase III study the loco-regional control, disease-free survival and overall survival induced by an accelerated regimen (AF) as compared with conventional regimen (CF) and to analyze the early and late post-radiation morbidity in both arms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with age < or = 75, WHO 0-1, suitable for a radical course of radiotherapy T1-T3, N0, M0, stage of glottic and supraglottic laryngeal cancer were randomized to either CF: 66Gy given in 33 fractions over 45 days or AF: 66Gy given in 33 fractions over 38 days (2 fractions every Thursday). A total of 395 patients were included from 05.1995 to 12.1998. RESULTS Early toxicity: At the end of radiotherapy patients treated with AF complained for more severe reactions than patients treated with CF. In 8 weeks after treatment completion patients treated with AF complained only for more severe pain on swallowing (P=0.027). In 4 months after treatment completion all types of toxicity except for skin teleangiectasia (P=0.001) were similar in the two groups. Loco-regional control: comparison between CF and AF showed no difference in terms of loco-regional control (P=0.37). CONCLUSIONS The improvement in AF in terms of loco-regional control is estimated to be 3-5% in comparison with conventional regimen and is not significant. The intensity of reactions after 4 months was similar in both arms, what suggests the possibility of further shortening of the overall time by few days or enhancing the total dose within the limits of acceptable morbidity.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury associated with liver transplantation and hepatic resections are an unresolved problem in the clinical practice. Preconditioning is known to preserve energy metabolism in liver during sustained ischemia, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this effect are still unclear. Different metabolic signals, including adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and nitric oxide (NO), have been implicated in preconditioning. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) protects cells by acting as a low-fuel warning system, becoming switched on by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion. NO synthesis is induced by AMPK in the heart during ischemia. The aim of this study was to investigate: 1) whether preconditioning induces AMPK activation; and 2) if AMPK activation leads to ATP preservation and reduced lactate accumulation during prolonged ischemia and its relationship with NO. Preconditioning activated AMPK and concomitantly reduced ATP degradation, lactate accumulation, and hepatic injury. The administration of an AMPK activator, AICAR, before ischemia simulated the benefits of preconditioning on energy metabolism and hepatic injury. The inhibition of AMPK abolished the protective effects of preconditioning. The effect of AMPK on energy metabolism was independent of NO because the inhibition of NO synthesis in the preconditioned group and the administration of the NO donor before ischemia, or to the preconditioned group with previous inhibition of AMPK, had no effect on energy metabolism. Both preconditioning and AICAR pretreatment, through AMPK activation, may be useful surgical and pharmacologic strategies aimed at reducing hepatic I/R injury.

Abstract
It is generally assumed that radiation-induced micronuclei (MN) in cytokinesis-blocked cells are an expression of cellular radiosensitivity. Therefore, radiosensitive cells should have a high frequency of MN and radioresistant cells should show lower levels. We have irradiated cells of a panel of 13 neuronal cell lines of widely differing radiosensitivity [human neuroblastomas: N2alpha, SHSY5Y, SK-N-SH, KELLY and SK-N-BE(2c); murine neuroblastomas: OP-6 and OP-27; human glioblastomas: G120, G60, G28, G112, G44 and G62] and compared their radiation response using the micronucleus and standard clonogenic assays. It was found that micronucleus frequency was much higher in some of the radioresistant cell lines (N2alpha, G28, G120 and G44; SF2 >/= 0.60). These cell lines showed a high frequency of more than 0.32 MN per gray of (60)Co gamma radiation per binucleated cell. On the other hand, the more radiosensitive cell lines (OP-27 and SK-N-SH, SF2 </= 0.27) produced 0.08 +/- 0.01 and 0.04 +/- 0.01 MN per gray, respectively. OP-6, SK-N-BE(2c), G112, G62, G60 and KELLY cells constituted an intermediate group and displayed a micronucleus formation index between 0.10 and 0.24 MN per gray per binucleated cell. SHSY5Y cells showed no detectable formation of MN. In two groups [OP-6, SK-N-BE(2c), G112, G62, N2alpha and G28 or G120, G60, OP-27 and SK-N-SH], the more resistant cell lines produced more MN per unit dose. Another group [OP-6, SK-N-BE(2c), G112, G62, G44 and G120] showed no correlation between micronucleus formation and radiosensitivity. We conclude that the relationship between cell survival and micronucleus formation is not straightforward and that it would be simplistic to translate micronucleus frequency into radiosensitivity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Differences in tumor response and intrinsic cellular radiosensitivity make the selection of patients for specific radiation modalities very difficult. The reasons for these differences are still unclear, but are thought to be due to genomic and cellular characteristics. Because radiosensitivities vary between cell cycle stages and because S phase cells are very radioresistant, cell cycle kinetic parameters could be a candidate for predicting intrinsic radiosensitivity. METHODS AND MATERIALS A panel of 15 tumor cell lines was analyzed for S phase content and potential doubling times (Tpot), and the influence of these parameters on the intrinsic radiosensitivity to 60Co gamma- and p(66)/Be neutron irradiation was assessed. RESULTS S phase content and Tpot show a statistically significant correlation with the mean inactivation dose for photons. The correlation between cell kinetic parameters and the mean inactivation dose for neutrons showed the same trend as photon sensitivity but this was not found to be statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS S phase content and Tpot were identified as suitable criteria for predicting photon sensitivity. It is suggested that cell kinetic parameters could play a role in identifying neutron sensitive tumors if both tumor and normal cells are analyzed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neutron therapy should be beneficial to patients with tumor types which are resistant to photons but relatively sensitive to high-LET radiation. In this work the potential therapeutic gain of a clinical neutron beam is evaluated by quantifying the variations in radiosensitivity of different cell lines to neutrons and photons. MATERIAL AND METHODS Different cell lines were exposed in vitro to p(66)/Be neutrons or 60Co gamma-rays. Micronuclei frequencies in binucleated cells and surviving fractions were determined for each cell type. RESULTS Following exposure to either 1 or 1.5 Gy neutrons, micronuclei frequencies were significantly correlated with that observed for 2 Gy photons. A weak but significant correlation between the variation in neutron RBE values, determined from survival curve inactivation parameters and the mean inactivation doses for photon exposures, was also established. CONCLUSION It is concluded that although neutron and photon sensitivities are related, the use of this high energy neutron source may constitute a potential therapeutic gain for tumor types that can be identified as very resistant to photons. Considering that a definitive oxygen gain factor has been established for this neutron beam the observed therapeutic gain is expected to be further enhanced in tumors where hypoxia protects cells from conventional radiation damage.

Abstract
We assessed the autoimmune status of 185 adult patients with bronchial asthma and 46 healthy subjects of similar sex and age. The patients were divided into groups with: (1) aspirin-induced asthma (AIA) (n = 80); (2) intrinsic asthma with good aspirin tolerance (n = 46); and (3) atopic asthma (n = 59). Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) at a titer of > or = 1:40 were present in the serum of 55% of the patients with AIA, 41% of those with intrinsic asthma, 39% of those with atopic asthma, and 11% of the healthy subjects, with the difference between each patient group and the healthy subjects being statistically significant (p < 0.05). The fluorescence staining pattern of ANA on Hep-2 cells was mainly speckled, but the precise antigen specificity of the antibodies could not be identified with reference sera against extractable nuclear antigens. None of the subjects exhibited anti-double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (anti-ds-DNA) or anti-neurtrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). Positive ANA were associated with signs of complement activation, the presence of rheumatoid factor, and circulating immune complexes. Clinical signs of autoimmunity, evidenced by rheumatic symptoms, cold sensitivity, and Raynaud's phenomenon, were more common among the patients who tested positively for ANA. The assessment of autoimmunity may help in better characterizing patients with asthma and understanding various symptoms of the disease. Any causal relationship between asthma and autoimmunity remains to be established.
