Specie esotiche invasive di rilevanza unionale in Italia: aggiornamenti e integrazioni
La Commissione Europea (CE) ha inserito ad oggi 36 taxa esotici vegetali nella lista delle specie esotiche invasive di rilevanza unionale ai sensi del Regolamento (UE) n. 1143/2014 del Parlamento Europeo e del Consiglio, recante disposizioni volte a prevenire e gestire lâintroduzione e la diffusione delle specie esotiche invasive. La lista delle specie di rilevanza unionale viene periodicamente aggiornata e include quelle specie che rappresentano una grave minaccia per la biodiversitĂ , ma anche per la salute dei cittadini e le attivitĂ economiche nei territori dellâUnione Europea e che necessitano di una gestione concertata a livello comunitario. La CE vigila sullo stato di ogni taxon grazie anche a periodiche rendicontazioni da parte dei paesi dell'Unione. In vista di tali report, tra il 2020 e il 2021 Ăš stata definita e integrata la distribuzione di queste specie in Italia
Anesthesiologic management of pregnant women with SARS-COV-2 infection undergoing cesarean delivery
Background: Pregnant women are usually more susceptible to infection due to typical physiological and mechanical changes, such as increased heart rate, stroke volume and pulmonary residual capacity. The aim of this study was to evaluate an innovative anesthesiologic opioid-free management protocol in symptomatic pregnant women, with COVID-19 and with oxygen therapy, undergoing cesarean delivery with spinal anesthesia. Methods: With the patient in the sitting position, spinal anesthesia was performed at the L1-L2 level. Vertebral level has been identified starting from the sacrum, we counted the laminae in the caudal-to-cephalad direction, which was then marked with a surgical pen. The technique was performed in asepsis, in the subarachnoid space after vision of clear Cephalo-Spinal Fluid (CSF) in the spinal needle 27 Gauge, without letting out the CSF, bupivacaine 0.5% 10 mg, dexmedetomidine 10 ÎŒg and dexamethasone 4 mg was injected. Results: During the study period, 40 pregnant women with one or more symptoms and supplemental oxygen (FiO2 35-40%) who underwent cesarean delivery were included in the study. All pregnant women had pain visual analog scale (VAS) <3, and no pregnant women required rescue dose. Adverse effects, such as nausea, vomiting, shivering, or pruritus were not recorded in any case. After a mean of 2.5 hours from the spinal anesthesia, all the included women had a complete motility of the lower limbs and were able to mobilize independently within 12 hours after delivery. Mean time to first latus was about 8 hours after delivery. Conclusions: Pregnant women in COVID-19 can safely receive intrathecal dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine during planned cesarean delivery
Valutazione e classificazione degli impatti e distribuzione delle specie alloctone in Italia
Attualmente in Italia sono presenti, allo stato spontaneo, 19 taxa esotici di rilevanza unionale, di cui 4 [Acacia
saligna (Labill.) H.L.Wendl., Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, Cardiospermum grandiflorum Sw., Humulus japonicus
Siebold & Zucc. (= H. scandens auct., non (Lour.) Merr.)] inseriti nel luglio 2019. La maggior parte di questi
taxa (60%) arriva dalle Americhe ed Ăš stata introdotta in Italia a fini ornamentali. Tra queste, A. altissima
Ăš diffusa in tutte le regioni italiane e la sua presenza massiva diventa rarefatta, fino a scomparire, solo con lâaumento
dellâaltitudine e nei contesti naturali caratterizzati da maggiore equilibrio ecologico, come negli ambienti alpini e in alcune zone della dorsale appenninica, o in fitocenosi stabili e non interessate da fattori di disturbo antropico e naturale
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Indian leafwing butterfly Kallima paralekta (insecta: Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)
The Indian leafwing butterfly Kallima paralekta (Horsfield, 1829) (Nymphalidae) is an Asian forest-dwelling, leaf-mimic. Genome skimming by Illumina sequencing permitted assembly of a complete circular mitogenome of 15,200âbp from K. paralekta consisting of 79.5% AT nucleotides, 22 tRNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs and a control region in the typical butterfly gene order. Kallima paralekta COX1 features an atypical CGA start codon, while ATP6, COX1, COX2, ND4, ND4L, and ND5 exhibit incomplete stop codons completed by 3â A residues added to the mRNA. Phylogenetic reconstruction places K. paraleckta within the monophyletic genus Kallima, sister to Mallika in the subfamily Nymphalinae. These data support the monophyly of tribe Kallimini and contribute to the evolutionary systematics of the Nymphalidae
