2. Mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome: focus on the current treatment scenario
Abstract Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders, characterized by infiltration of the skin by mature malignant T cells. Mycosis fungoides is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, accounting for more than 60% of cases. Mycosis fungoides in the early-stage is generally an indolent disease, progressing

3. Spitz nevus and infliximab: association or coincidence?,
Abstract Biological therapies, including anti-TNF agents, are important in the treatment of various chronic inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. The increased use of these drugs translates into an increasing awareness of its adverse effects, which include malignancy. In this paper, we describe the ca

4. Cell-Based Therapies for Myocardial Regeneration in Heart Failure: 20 Years of Debate
ABSTRACT Oleuropein is one of the most abundant phenolic compounds present in olive leaves, and many studies have shown that this compound has important biological properties (anti-inflammatory, anti-atherogenic, anticancer, antimicrobial and antiviral) and that is why it has been gaining prominence in research. Oleuropein can be extracted from different sou

5. Precision non-implantable neuromodulation therapies: a perspective for the depressed brain
Current first-line treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) include pharmacotherapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy. However, one-third of depressed patients do not achieve remission after multiple medication trials, and psychotherapy can be costly and time-consuming. Although non-implantable neuromodulation (NIN) techniques such as transcranial magne

6. The Effectiveness of Psycho-Educational and Cognitive-Behavioral Counseling on Female Sexual Dysfunction
Abstract Introduction Sexual function is a multidimensional phenomenon that is affected by many biological and psychological factors. Cognitive-behavioral sex therapies are among themost common nonpharmacological approaches to psychosexual problems. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of psychoeducational and cognitive-beh

7. Synthesis, Characterization and Conformational Analysis of Two Novel 4(1H)‑Quinolinones
Quinolinones are a class of organic compounds known as alkaloids found in several plants and also can be synthesized. Their large use in therapies regards their wide biological potential like antitumor, psychiatric and neurological agents. Two substances were structurally characterized: (E)-3-(2-nitrobenzylidene)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-2,3-di
