Early detection is fundamental for achieving effective control of infectious disease outbreaks. We described the development of a local chief complaint emergency department (ED)-based syndromic surveillance system to improve public health response in Genoa, Italy. The five syndromes under investigation by the syndromic surveillance system were...

It is currently unknown if metabolic acidosis has any effect on muscle protein metabolism in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). To address this question, muscle protein turnover was studied in patients with CRF and controls in the postabsorptive state by using the forearm perfusion method together with the 3H-phenylalanine kinetics....

Muscle protein turnover and amino acid (AA) exchange across the forearm were studied in nine postabsorptive patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) under unrestricted calorie-protein diets and eight controls by using the arterio-venous difference technique associated with the 3H-phenylalanine kinetics. In patients with CRF: (1) the rate of...
