Genetic Ace2 Deficiency Accentuates Vascular Inflammation and Atherosclerosis in the ApoE Knockout Mouse
Merlin C. Thomas,Raelene Pickering,Despina Tsorotes,Audrey Koitka,Karen Sheehy,Stella Bernardi,Barbara Toffoli,Thu-Phuc Nguyen-Huu,Geoffrey A. Head,Yi Fu,Jaye Chin-Dusting,Mark E. Cooper,Chris Tikellis +12 more
TL;DR: Genetic Ace2 deficiency is associated with upregulation of putative mediators of atherogenesis and enhances responsiveness to proinflammatory stimuli in atherosclerosis-prone ApoE KO mice, and these findings emphasize the potential utility of ACE2 repletion as a strategy to reduce Atherosclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 is a key modulator of the renin-angiotensin system in cardiovascular and renal disease.
TL;DR: Repletion of ACE2's activities offers a new strategy to complement current clinical interventions in treating hypertension, renal and cardiovascular disease, and in particular conditions where ACE inhibition and angiotensin receptor blockade are partially effective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimally-invasive treatments for benign thyroid nodules: a Delphi-based consensus statement from the Italian minimally-invasive treatments of the thyroid (MITT) group.
Enrico Papini,Claudio Maurizio Pacella,Luigi Solbiati,Gaetano Achille,Daniele Barbaro,Stella Bernardi,Vito Cantisani,Roberto Cesareo,Arturo Chiti,Luca Cozzaglio,Anna Crescenzi,Francesco De Cobelli,Maurilio Deandrea,Laura Fugazzola,Giovanni Gambelunghe,Roberto Garberoglio,Gioacchino Giugliano,Livio Luzi,Roberto Negro,Luca Persani,Bruno Raggiunti,Francesco Sardanelli,Ettore Seregni,Martina Sollini,Stefano Spiezia,Fulvio Stacul,Dominique Van Doorne,Luca Maria Sconfienza,Giovanni Mauri +28 more
TL;DR: The Italian MIT Thyroid Group was founded to create a permanent cooperation between Italian and international physicians dedicated to clinical research and assistance on MIT for thyroid nodules to facilitate the diffusion and the appropriate use of MIT of thyroid nodule in clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiofrequency Ablation Compared to Surgery for the Treatment of Benign Thyroid Nodules
Stella Bernardi,Chiara Dobrinja,Bruno Fabris,Gabriele Bazzocchi,Nicoletta Sabato,Veronica Ulcigrai,Massimo Giacca,Enrica Barro,Nicolò de Manzini,Fulvio Stacul +9 more
TL;DR: Radiofrequency ablation reduced nodular volume by 70% after 12 months and it was an effective method for treating nodule-related clinical problems, but it was not as effective as surgery for the treatment of hot nodules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in essential hypertension.
Francesco Fallo,A Dalla Pozza,Nicoletta Sonino,Mario Lupia,Francesco Tona,Giovanni Federspil,Mario Ermani,Cristiana Catena,Giorgio Soardo,L Di Piazza,Stella Bernardi,Michele Bertolotto,Bruno Pinamonti,Bruno Fabris,L.A. Sechi +14 more
TL;DR: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was associated with insulin resistance and abnormalities of left ventricular diastolic function in a cohort of patients with essential hypertension, suggesting a concomitant increase of metabolic and cardiac risk in this condition.
