The physiological stress response of juvenile nurse sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum) to catch-and-release recreational angling.

Nurse sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum), especially juveniles, are often encountered by near-shore and shore-based recreational anglers and are suggested to exhibit minimal behavioral and physiological responses to capture, largely based on studies of adults using commercial or scientific fishing methods. To quantify the sub-lethal effects of recreational angling on juvenile nurse sharks, 27 individuals (across 31 angling events) were caught using hook-and-line fishing methods. Over a 30-min period, 4 blood samples were taken with variable time intervals between sampling (i.

In the period between March 2021 and December 2023, our Casa della Salute in Borgaretto (Torino) organized a clinic dedicated to vaccination against Covid-19 in its local and with its staff (medical, nursing and administrative). To try to inform the majority of the population about this activity, we used the social networks of the Casa della Salute (Facebook and website), the social networks of the Municipality of Beinasco and some of the local newspapers. The list of eligible subjects was shared with the ASL TO 3 and the invitation to vaccination was made via SMS from a dedicated platform, indicating the day and time of the appointment.

Endoscopic Ear Surgery, from the Last Ten to the Next Ten Years: A Critical Perspective.

Endoscopic ear surgery has gained increasing popularity starting from the early 2000s, introducing new anatomical, physiological and surgical concepts in ear and lateral skull base surgery. Its development has brought new scientific knowledge, thus improving surgical technique with a minimally invasive attitude. The aim of this perspective is to review and summarize all the steps that brought endoscopic ear surgery from a surgery practiced by a few teams to a worldwide recognized advancement in otology.

Management of Otogenic Meningitis: A Proposal for Practical Guidelines from a Multicenter Experience with a Systematic Review.

Otogenic meningitis represents the most common and life-threatening complication of infective middle ear diseases. However, no guidelines are available to describe the optimal management strategy and the role of surgical intervention. A six-year multicenter retrospective study on consecutive patients treated for otogenic meningitis caused by acute otitis and re-exacerbation of chronic otitis at the University Hospital of Verona and Modena was performed, and a systematic review regarding acute otitis media-related meningitis in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 statement was then conducted.
