Vaccinations in children of non-European origin: The Vax4globe survey.

The present study aims to investigate vaccine attitude of non-European parents living in Italy and those factors affecting vaccine uptake and equity.

Genotypes of p53 codon 72 correlate with age at onset of type 1 diabetes in a sex-specific manner.

In type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) p53 pathways are up-regulated and there is an increased susceptibility to apoptosis. The hypothesis is that p53 codon 72 polymorphism could be associated with T1D. A total of 286 children with T1D and a control sample of 730 subjects were studied.
