Abstract
Squamous cervical carcinoma (SCC) requires particular attention in diagnostic and clinical management. New diagnostic tools, such as (positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging) PET-MRI, consent to ameliorate clinical staging accuracy. The availability of new technologies in radiation therapy permits to deliver higher dose lowering toxicities. In this clinical scenario, new surgical concepts could aid in general management. Lastly, new targeted therapies and immunotherapy will have more room in this setting. The aim of this narrative review is to focus both on clinical management and new therapies in the precision radiotherapy era.

Abstract
Bearing in mind the reports which clearly document the constant dissociation between daily calorie intake from diet, obesity and the positive effects of the mechanical load on bone trophism, the possible correlation between total daily calorie intake of some nutrients (Ca, P and vitamin D) on the one hand, and bone mineral density (BMD) on the other was evaluated in 61 obese women. The results appear to indicate that the higher BMD in obese compared to normal weight subjects may largely depend on the presence of notoriously high estrogen levels which allow a better efficacy and use of dietary calcium.
