Disseminated Echovirus 11 infection in a newborn in the Province of Bolzano, Italy.

Purpose: Recently, cases of serious illness in newborns infected with Echovirus 11 have been reported in Europe, including Italy. Here, we report the case of a newborn diagnosed with disseminated Echovirus 11 infection, which occurred in October 2023 in the Province of Bolzano, Italy.

Methods: A molecular screening, by Real-Time RT-PCR, was employed to analyse the cerebrospinal fluid, blood and stool samples, and nasal swabs.

Does the Harvest Type Affect Olive Health? Influence of the Harvesting System and Storage Time on the Chemical, Volatile and Sensory Qualities of Extra Virgin Olive Oils.

With the aim of investigating the effect of bruising and its development during the postharvest time, olive fruits (Frantoio and Moraiolo), manually and mechanically harvested, were stored in climatic chambers at two different temperatures (5 °C and 18 °C) for five days. Visual observations highlighted changes in the olive peel with discoloration in the damaged areas and tissue bruising. Olive fruit polyphenols, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other oil quality parameters (phenolic content, free acidity and peroxide index) and sensory assessment were evaluated.

A Novel Approach to Assessing and Conservatively Treating Anterior Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome: A Case Study.

Anterior cutaneous nerve entrapment syndrome (ACNES) is a common source of chronic abdominal pain and is often underdiagnosed despite numerous and potentially invasive diagnostic evaluations and tests. We present a case report describing a novel, conservative, and non-invasive approach to diagnose and treat recurrent ACNES in a young and active patient. We describe a treatment-based diagnostic approach to confirm potential ACNES pain generators while recording pre- and post-treatment pain scores.
