Sir Richard Doll, the medical research scientist whose findings provided some of the most important foundations of tobacco control, died peacefully on 24 July 2005, aged 92.

Beauty or the beast
1309 Objectives : Italian guidelines on radiometabolic treatment of hyperthyroidisms strongly suggest to calculate the time-activity curve of radioiodine thyroid uptake, in order to obtain the values of maximum percent uptake (Umax) and the effective half life (T1/2eff) of the tracer. However in these guidelines it is allowed to use a simplified method in which Umax is the percent uptake 24h after iodine administration (U24h) and T1/2eff is 5.5 d…

An 11-year-old girl with Down syndrome (DS) was operated for a stage I right ovary dysgerminoma. She is in good health 33 years later. Some data in the literature suggest that ovarian cancers could be slightly overrepresented in DS. Despite the rarity of ovarian dysgerminoma, our case is the fifth reported in DS. This case is the second one associated with a family history suggesting the possibility of a familial predisposition to cancer. A hypot…
