The presence of nonpolymorphic variants was also evaluated. Three-hundred and eight patients with colorectal cancer and 294 healthy controls were analysed at the germinal level. We found an association with increased risk of colorectal cancer for +2960 14-bp INDEL, +3196 C&gt;G SNPs and UTR-2 haplotype, and a 'protective' role for +3003 T&gt;C, +3010 C&gt;G polymorphisms and UTR-4 haplotype. We detected in 3 distinct patients, a novel nucleotide change (+3037 C&gt;A) and 2 already described rare variants, +3032 G/C (EUR MAF = 0.1%) and +3092 G/T (EUR MAF = 0%). This is the first study showing associations between different polymorphisms in the HLA-G 3'UTR and colorectal cancer susceptibility.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26752414?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maximova, N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ferrara, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Minute, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pizzol, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kiren, V</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montico, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gregori, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tamaro, P</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Experience from a single paediatric transplant centre with identification of some protective and risk factors concerning the development of hepatic veno-occlusive disease in children after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Int J Hematol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Int.

The frequency of VOD according to the Seattle criteria was 17 %, within the range reported in literature. The mortality rate was 37.5 % (75 out of 200 transplantations) in the general population and 73.5 % (25 out of 34) in VOD patients (p &lt; 0.05). Veno-occlusive disease significantly decreased from 38 % (1995-2000) to 8 % (2007-2013) p &lt; 0.05. Univariate and multivariate analyses identified sepsis and pre-transplant ferritin levels above 1000 ng/ml as two significant risk factors for VOD, while the use of tacrolimus appeared to be associated with a lower VOD risk. Veno-occlusive disease still remains an important cause of transplant-related mortality even if it appears to have decreased over the last few years.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24715523?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barbi, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Longo, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Berti, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neri, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Saccari, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rubert, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Matarazzo, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montico, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ventura, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adverse effects during specific oral tolerance induction: in-hospital &quot;rush&quot; phase.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eur Ann Allergy Clin Immunol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eur Ann Allergy Clin Immunol</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Administration, Inhalation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anaphylaxis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Animals</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bronchodilator Agents</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Child</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Desensitization, Immunologic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Epinephrine</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Milk</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Milk Hypersensitivity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Retrospective Studies</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012 Feb</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">44</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18-25</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;BACKGROUND: &lt;/b&gt;Specific oral tolerance induction (SOTI) is a promising approach in the treatment of severe food allergies. Different protocols have demonstrated its efficacy. Nevertheless, SOTI is still considered an experimental method and should be limited to highly controlled settings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;AIMS: &lt;/b&gt;To define the incidence and severity of adverse reactions, possible risk factors, and the safety and effectiveness of nebulized epinephrine as a first-line treatment of respiratory reactions during in-hospital SOTI for cow's milk allergy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;MATERIALS AND METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;A retrospective study was conducted by reviewing the medical records of patients admitted for SOTI beginning in 2001. Reactions were classified as mild, moderate and severe on a partially modified Clark scale. Adverse reactions were treated following the International Guidelines with the introduction of nebulized epinephrine for level four reactions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Of 209 patients, 17 were excluded due to the absence of objective reactions. The remaining 192 were classified as follows: Mild Reactions (Clark Scale 1 to 3): 100 patients received either no treatment, oral antihistamines or nebulized steroids; Moderate Reactions (Clark Scale 4): 87 patients treated with nebulized epinephrine and, depending on their symptoms, oral antihistamines, corticosteroids (nebulized, oral or IV) or nebulized beta 2 agonists; Severe Reactions (Clark Scale 5): 5 children, 4 of whom initially underwent one nebulization of epinephrine and eventually required an IM dose. The fifth patient was immediately treated with IM epinephrine due to hypotension.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;DISCUSSION: &lt;/b&gt;adverse reactions during this in-hospital SOTI protocol were frequent but easily manageable. Nebulized epinephrine can play a relevant role in the treatment of respiratory reactions.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22519128?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Di Lorenzo, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ceccarello, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cecotti, V</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ronfani, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monasta, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vecchi Brumatti, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montico, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">D'Ottavio, G</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">First trimester maternal serum PIGF, free β-hCG, PAPP-A, PP-13, uterine artery Doppler and maternal history for the prediction of preeclampsia.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Placenta</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Placenta</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adult</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biological Markers</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chorionic Gonadotropin, beta Subunit, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cohort Studies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Galectins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hypertension, Pregnancy-Induced</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pre-Eclampsia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pregnancy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pregnancy Complications</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pregnancy Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pregnancy Trimester, First</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pregnancy-Associated Plasma Protein-A</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prospective Studies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ultrasonography, Prenatal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Uterine Artery</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Uterus</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012 Jun</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">495-501</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;OBJECTIVE: &lt;/b&gt;To evaluate the detection of pregnancy hypertensive disorders by integrating maternal history, serum biomarkers and uterine artery Doppler in the first trimester.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;We prospectively recruited 2118 women that underwent an 11-13 weeks aneuploidy screening. We gathered information on maternal history, uterine artery Doppler and serum biomarkers (PAPP-A, PlGF, PP-13 and free β-hCG). Models were developed for the prediction of overall preeclampsia (PE), early-onset PE, late-onset PE and gestational hypertension (GH). For each outcome, we performed a multivariate logistic regression starting from the saturated model: adopting a step-down procedure we excluded all factors not statistically significant (p &gt; 0.05). Sensitivity models only for statistically significant parameters were calculated from the ROC curves for fixed false-positive rates (FPR).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Among 2118 women, 46 (2.17%) developed GH and 25 (1.18%) were diagnosed with PE, including 12 (0.57%) early-onset PE and 13 (0.61%) late-onset PE. For a fixed FPR of 10 and 5%, serum PlGF, free β-hCG and chronic hypertension identified respectively 67 and 75% of women who developed early-onset PE. In the model for the prediction of overall PE the combination of the uterine artery Doppler pulsatility index (UtA PI) with PlGF and chronic hypertension reached a sensitivity of 60% for a 20% of FPR.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;An integration of maternal characteristics and first trimester maternal serum biomarkers (free β-hCG and PlGF) provided a possible screening for early-onset PE. In the overall PE model, UtA PI turned out to be statistically significant but did not improve the detection rate.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22459245?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Minute, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Badina, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cont, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montico, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ronfani, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barbi, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ventura, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Videogame playing as distraction technique in course of venipuncture.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pediatr Med Chir</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pediatr Med Chir</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anesthetics, Local</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Child</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Child, Preschool</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lidocaine</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pain</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phlebotomy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prilocaine</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prospective Studies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Video Games</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012 Mar-Apr</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">34</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">77-83</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;BACKGROUND: &lt;/b&gt;Needle-related procedures (venipuncture, intravenous cannulation) are the most common source of pain and distress for children. Reducing needle related pain and anxiety could be important in order to prevent further distress, especially for children needing multiple hospital admissions. The aim of the present open randomized controlled trial was to investigate the efficacy of adding an active distraction strategy (videogame) to EMLA premedication in needle-related pain in children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;One-hundred and nine children (4 -10 years of age) were prospectively recruited to enter in the study. Ninety-seven were randomized in two groups: CC group (conventional care: EMLA only) as control group and AD group (active distraction: EMLA plus videogame) as intervention group. Outcome measures were: self-reported pain by mean of FPS-R scale (main study outcome), observer-reported pain by FLACC scale, number of attempts for successful procedure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;In both groups FPS-R median rate was 0 (interquartile range: 0-2), with significant pain (FPS-R &gt; 4) reported by 9% of subjects. FLACC median rate was 1 in both groups (interquartile range 0-3 in CC group; 0-2 in AD group). The percentage of children with major pain (FLACC &gt; 4) was 18% in CC group and 9% in AD group (p = 0.2). The median of necessary attempts to succeed in the procedures was 1 (interquartile range 1-2) in both groups..&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;Active distraction doesn't improve EMLA analgesia for iv cannulation and venipuncture. Even though, it resulted in an easily applicable strategy appreciated by children. This technique could be usefully investigated in other painful procedures.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22730632?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
