Quantum simulations of the dynamics of QCD have been limited by the complexities of mapping the continuous gauge fields onto quantum computers. By parametrizing the gauge invariant Hilbert space in terms of plaquette degrees of freedom, we show how the Hilbert space and interactions can be expanded in inverse powers of N_{c}. At leading order in this expansion, the Hamiltonian simplifies dramatically, both in the required size of the Hilbert space as well as the type of interactions involved.

This has led to the area being notoriously known as the Land of Fires (Terra dei Fuochi - TdF), sparking serious concerns about public health and threatening the region's agricultural sector, one of its economic mainstays. In such a context, a timely, accurate, and reliable flow of information, aimed both at the population and at stakeholders, is crucial for establishing a proper dialogue between institutions and people, driving the empowerment of citizens.

- Early diagnosis of joint damage in haemophilia is crucial to prevent further complications and enhance patient management, with the HJHS and HEAD-US scores being primary evaluation tools.
- This study aims to compare the effectiveness of HJHS and HEAD-US scores by two independent experts to assess joint health in patients with haemophilia.
- Results show a strong correlation between the two methods, particularly highlighting the ultrasound's ability to detect mild synovitis even when physical examination shows no swelling, underscoring the importance of using both assessments in clinical practice.
Introduction: The increased life expectancy of patients with haemophilia A (HA) has led to a growing prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and events. There is still scarce evidence on the safety and appropriate duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in HA patients.
Aim: We describe our experience on the clinical management of Italian HA patients after ACS.
