TL;DR: How the COVID-19 outbreak and related infection control measures could hit the most frail individuals, worsening the condition of NCD patients, while further jeopardizing the sustainability of the healthcare systems is discussed.

TL;DR: This work reviews the most frequent interventions employed to increase the degree of medication adherence, the measured outcomes, and the improvements achieved, as well as the main limitations of the available studies on adherence, with a particular focus on older persons.

TL;DR: This study provides the first prospective validation of a universal mechanism associated with TSD, and xenograft infection by oncolytic VACV, beyond offering a promising therapy of established cancers, may represent a reliable pre-clinical model to test therapeutic strategies aimed at modulating the central pathways leading to TSD.

TL;DR: Interestingly, the in vivo and in vitro studies provide evidence that apoptosis is the basic mechanism through which corticosteroid treatment acts on this T-lymphocyte type, thereby confirming the results of previous investigations.

TL;DR: The fact that peculiar clinical-pathological features seem to characterize patients with a family history of breast cancer and BRCA1 alterations is confirmed also in a consecutive series of patients from southern Italy.
