Air pollution and childhood leukaemia: a nationwide case-control study in Italy (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: Leukaemia is the most common cancer in children, but its aetiology is still poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that traffic-related air pollution is associated with paediatric leu
Adenosinergic mechanisms contribute to individual differences in sleep deprivation-induced changes in neurobehavioral function and brain rhythmic... (Publications)
Large individual differences characterize the changes induced by sleep deprivation on neurobehavioral functions and rhythmic brain activity. To investigate adenosinergic mechanisms in these difference
Simple variables predict miserable outcome after intravenous thrombolysis (Publications)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To test the predictability of miserable outcome amongst ischaemic stroke patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) based on a simple variables model (SVM) and to compar
<em>In vitro</em> metabolic profile and <em>in vivo</em> antischistosomal activity studies of (n6-praziquantel)Cr(Co)3 derivatives (Publications)
In vitro metabolic behavior was investigated for two chromium tricarbonyl derivatives of the antischistosomal drug praziquantel (PZQ) with the formula (?(6)-PZQ)Cr(CO)3 (1 and 2), by use of human live
DMSO-mediated ligand dissociation: renaissance for biological activity of <em>N</em>-heterocyclic-[Ru(n6-arene)CI2] drug candidates (Publications)
Slipped under the radar? 1 H NMR spectroscopic examination revealed that [Ru(?6 -arene)Cl2 (L)] (L=N-heterocyclic ligands) complexes readily undergo ligand exchange reaction in DMSO, a popular medium
Mathematical models of contact patterns between age groups for predicting the spread of infectious diseases (Publications)
The spread of an infectious disease is sensitive to the contact patterns in the population and to precautions people take to reduce the transmission of the disease. We investigate the impact that diff
