From plant remains to metal artifacts
Non-invasive characterization of the manufacturing process of a Nuragic bronze statuette
Nuragic bronzes represent a historical archive that offers insights into the development of casting techniques in the Mediterranean basin. • Determining the manufacturing processes used in the creation of complex bronze items requires an understanding of Sardinian bronze metallurgy. • Neutron imaging techniques allows to characterise morphology and microstructure of bulk metal object in a completely non-invasive way. • The use of WB-NT and BENT a…
The Scent of Monogamy
Laboratory Parameters of Hemostasis, Adhesion Molecules, and Inflammation in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Both T2DM and poor glycemic control affect some parameters of hemostasis, inflammation, and adhesion molecules. Further studies are needed to establish their clinical utility as adjuvant markers for cardio-vascular risk in T2DM patients
Potential Benefits and Harms of Novel Antidiabetic Drugs During Covid-19 Crisis
Patients with diabetes have been reported to have enhanced susceptibility to severe or fatal COVID-19 infections, including a high risk of being admitted to intensive care units with respiratory failure and septic complications. Given the global prevalence of diabetes, affecting over 450 million people worldwide and still on the rise, the emerging COVID-19 crisis poses a serious threat to an extremely large vulnerable population. However, the bro…
First Trimester Combined Test (FTCT) as a Predictor of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Background -The first trimester combined test (FTCT) is an effective screening tool to estimate the risk of fetal aneuploidy. It is obtained by the combination of maternal age, ultrasound fetal nuchal translucency (NT) measurement, and the maternal serum markers free β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A). However, conflicting data have been reported about the association of FTCT, β-hCG, or PAPP-…
Long-Term Effectiveness of Liraglutide for Weight Management and Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes
Background : Liraglutide is the first glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) based on the human GLP-1 sequence, with potential weight loss benefits, approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus. Herein, we aimed to assess the 5-year effectiveness of Liraglutide in the management of weight and glycometabolic control in a Southern Italian cohort of overweight/obese T2D patients, who were naïve to GLP-1 RAs. Patients and…
Non-destructive microstructural characterization of a bronze boat model from Vetulonia
Barriers to Postpartum Glucose Intolerance Screening in an Italian Population
Background : Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a strong risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and the postpartum period is crucial for early treatment in at-risk women. However, despite recommendations, only a fraction of women undergo a postpartum screening for glucose intolerance (ppOGTT). The present study aims to verify the reason(s) for poor adherence in our population. Research design and methods : This retrospective study inc…
Non-destructive characterization of archeological Cu-based artifacts from the early metallurgy of southern Portugal
