Clinical trials

International Registry to collect patients with severe TR undergoing TricValve implantation from multiple Italian and European centers, aimed at: * Assessing the effect of TricValve implantation on cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, HF rehospitalization, renal function, functional capacity and quality of life. * Clarifying the haemodynamic effects of TricValve implantation and investigating their pathophysiological implications.

Osteoporosis (OP) and fragility fractures are a significant problem that leads to morbidity, mortality, and high costs for the National Health System. The treatment of fragility fractures includes numerous anti-resorptive and anabolic drugs, and its goal is the secondary prevention of new fractures. It is well known that the risk of a new fracture following a fracture event is highest in the months immediately following the first fracture. However, recent data clearly show a dramatic global delay in the administration of anti-osteoporotic therapy following a fragility fracture. It has been estimated that in Italy, 71% of patients with fragility fractures eligible for anti-fracture treatment did not receive timely treatment (a problem defined as a "treatment gap"), and that in 2034, the incidence of new fragility fractures will increase compared to 2019 \[1\]. However, there is a lack of real-life Italian data on the extent of the treatment gap in osteoporotic patients with fragility fractures and its impact in terms of the incidence of subsequent fragility fractures: this study therefore aims to fill this gap by collecting data from a large population of patients attending several centers throughout the country.

The study seeks to investigate the neurological effects caused by Covid-19 in children and adolescents in the 6-16 age group. To do this, neuropsychological scales, an EEG and an MRI were used.

To early evaluate the serum levels of calprotectin in patients suffering from intra-abdominal sepsis requiring a surgical treatment. The research project aims to investigate the role of serum calprotectin in the diagnosis of sepsis and to establish whether its level significantly correlates with different degree of disease severity and with short and long-term outcomes. If these associations were confirmed, serum calprotectin would represent an easily and rapidly detectable biomarker able to predict the severity of sepsis.
