Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This is the first case of acute cardiac injury directly linked to myocardial localization of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) in a 69‐year‐old patient with flu‐like symptoms rapidly degenerating into respiratory distress, hypotension, and cardiogenic shock.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring of Human Cytomegalovirus‐Specific CD4+ and CD8+ T‐Cell Immunity in Patients Receiving Solid Organ Transplantation
G. Gerna,Daniele Lilleri,Chiara Fornara,Giuditta Comolli,Laura Lozza,Carlo Campana,Carlo Pellegrini,Federica Meloni,Teresa Rampino +8 more
TL;DR: The number of HCMV‐specific CD4+ and CD8+ T‐cells detected prior to transplantation significantly correlated with time to T‐cell immunity restoration, in that higher HCMv‐specific T‐ cell counts predicted earlier immune restoration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Desmin accumulation restrictive cardiomyopathy and atrioventricular block associated with desmin gene defects.
Eloisa Arbustini,Michele Pasotti,Andrea Pilotto,Carlo Pellegrini,Maurizia Grasso,Stefano C. Previtali,Alessandra Repetto,Ornella Bellini,Gaetano Azan,Manuela Scaffino,Carlo Campana,Giovanni Piccolo,Mario Viganò,Luigi Tavazzi +13 more
TL;DR: Primary desminopathies are caused by desmin gene [DES (MIM*125660)] mutations and the clinical spectrum includes pure myopathies, cardiomuscular diseases and cardiomyopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of human metapneumovirus and human cytomegalovirus versus other respiratory viruses on the lower respiratory tract infections of lung transplant recipients.
Giuseppe Gerna,Patrizio Vitulo,Francesca Rovida,Daniele Lilleri,Carlo Pellegrini,Tiberio Oggionni,Giulia Campanini,Fausto Baldanti,M. Grazia Revello +8 more
TL;DR: About 50% of respiratory tract infections of lung transplant recipients were associated with one or more respiratory viruses, and a high HCMV load in bronchoalveolar lavage is a risk factor for viral pneumonia, suggesting some measure of intervention for the control of viral infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Virologic and immunologic monitoring of cytomegalovirus to guide preemptive therapy in solid-organ transplantation.
G. Gerna,Daniele Lilleri,Antonella Chiesa,Paola Zelini,Milena Furione,Giuditta Comolli,Carlo Pellegrini,Eleonora Sarchi,Clara Migotto,M. Regazzi Bonora,Federica Meloni,Eloisa Arbustini +11 more
TL;DR: Control of human cytomegalovirus infection during the posttransplant period was investigated in 134 solid‐organ transplant recipients by monitoring in parallel virologic and immunologic parameters for at least 1 year of follow‐up, and the presence of both HCMV‐specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells ≥ 0.4/μL blood appears to be protective against H CMV disease.
