Objective: In Italy, around 137,000 people live with multiple sclerosis, facing organizational complexities due to the current model's limited focus on proximity care. This project aims to define a proximity model, in accordance with recent developments in the Italian healthcare landscape, engaging over 150 healthcare stakeholders and potentially impacting approximately 14,000 patients.
Methods: An analysis was pursued to map the multiple sclerosis pathway, followed by interviews to capture the actual implementation in Italian Multiple Sclerosis Centers.
Objective: This work measures the intra-operative bleeding in end-stage renal disease patients and assesses whether laboratory coagulation tests and nitrogenous compounds are related to a higher bleeding risk.
Methods: Laboratory tests were performed on the day of surgery and some patients with thrombocytopenia and values above the normal levels of international normalised ratio (INR), thrombin time (TT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) were identified.
Results: Haemostatic time ranged from 2 to 35 min (mean of 8.

- A total of 101 participants were assessed, revealing common oral manifestations like facial lipoatrophy (33%), dry mouth (xerostomia) (30%), and swollen salivary glands (12%).
- The findings showed that facial lipoatrophy was linked to longer cART duration, while hairy leukoplakia was associated with a detectable viral load; decreased salivary flow was connected to having HIV for over 20 years.*
