Derivation and validation of Re.Co.De death score risk in patients with acute nonvariceal upper GI bleeding

Adding the analysis or discussion to the APACHE II score may clearly explain the predictive risk associated with upper gastrointestinal bleeding via the Re.Co.De score

“…We thank Deng et al 1 for agreeing with our conclusions and for their attention to our study. 2 The APACHE II score severity of disease classification system is a reliable and valuable means of classifying patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), derived in an ICU setting to evaluate hospital resources, compare the efficacy of intensive care, and measure the severity of illness and…”

Reference centers for tissue and body donations: Compulsory requirements in Italy

“…This was just the start, however, as the law demanded that government bodies subsequently draw up the practical details in specific implementing rules. The implementing regulations are a set of regulatory actions following the enactment of the law, which allows for the specification of its operational details, involving a completion effect making it fully effective (De Caro et al, 2021).…”

“…Adopting such detailed and stringent technical requirements could raise the costs of body donation programs and the related dissection activities. It could also make it logistically complicated and cumbersome to set up new reference centers and keep them functioning at a level useful for students (De Caro et al, 2021). It is certainly important to contain the chemical, biological and carcinogenic risks associated with the treatment of donated bodies, but this calls for alternative, low-cost and effective conservation methods in order to use the anatomical material in a way that is economically sustainable, and effective for teaching purposes (Hammer et al, 2012).…”

“…The present paper discusses the technical requirements, which have aroused some criticism regarding medicolegal and anatomical aspects (Bolcato et al, 2021;Boscolo-Berto et al, 2020b). Italian anatomists have also contributed ideas on how the law will be implemented (De Caro et al, 2021). In Italy, new legislation is followed up with provisions called "implementing rules" containing details of how the To the best of our knowledge, these are the first Italian regulations envisaged in this particular setting, with clear consequences for the anatomy community.…”

Photodynamic therapy with acai (Euterpe oleracea) and blue light in oral cells: A spectroscopic and cytotoxicity analysis

“…Its biological potentials, such as antioxidant and immunomodulating effects, have been described for its extracts in health sciences, particularly in the field of oncology [2,9]. These biological potentials are due to their phytochemical composition, especially from the anthocyanins [6,11].…”
