THE CONCEPTUAL AND CLINICAL PROBLEMS OF PARANEOPLASTIC SYNDROME IN ONCOLOGY A…

Symptomatology of oncological diseases consists not only of local symptoms caused by the primary malignancy or its metastases, but also by general systemic signs that are not directly connected with the tumor. These symptoms are mostly associated with autoimmunity or endocrine influences. In many cases, the source of paraneoplastic syndromes (PNS) is unknown. Nearly 15% of oncological patients …

Pre-Eclampsia and Eclampsia: An Update on the Pharmacological Treatment Appli…

Pre-eclampsia and eclampsia are two hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, considered major causes of maternal and perinatal death worldwide. Pre-eclampsia is a multisystemic disease characterized by the development of hypertension after 20 weeks of gestation, with the presence of proteinuria or, in its absence, of signs or symptoms indicative of target organ injury. Eclampsia represents the con…

Preeclampsia and cardiovascular disease: interconnected paths that enable det…

The potent and now longstanding evidence of the association between placentationrelated disorders and cardiovascular disease should be translated into clinical practice in order to introduce a preventive approach to future obstetric and cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this review is to integrate cardiovascular risk/disease and obstetric complications, which are linked by endothelial dy…

Both consumption of undercooked meat and unprotected contact with soil a…

Although rare, congenital toxoplasmosis can cause severe neurological or ocular disease (leading to blindness), as well as cardiac and cerebral anomalies. Prenatal care must include education about prevention of toxoplasmosis. The low prevalence of the disease in the Can…

Angiotensin converting enzyme and angiotensin II type 1-receptor gene polymor…

Polymorphisms in several genes of the renin–angiotensin system have been implicated as risk factors for myocardial infarction and ischaemic heart disease. In particular, it has been suggested that the angiotensin converting enzyme insertion / deletion 1166 (I /D) polymorphism and the angiotensin II type 1 receptor A C polymorphisms might act synergistically to increase the risk of myocardi…
