    Title translation CoViD-19 in Italy: homeless population needs protection.
    Abstract Italy is one of the most affected countries by the new coronavirus (CoViD-19) pandemic. In the country, there are an estimated 49,000-52,000 homeless people. People experiencing homelessness are among the potentially most vulnerable groups to the CoViD-19. Despite this, in Italy there is a worrying delay in implementation of a national coordinated strategy to protect homeless people from the potentially devastating effects caused by CoViD-19. In order to contain the epidemic among the most vulnerable people, we propose a short operational agenda based on the field experience of the medical-humanitarian organization Medici per i Diritti Umani (Doctors for Human Rights, Italy - MEDU) as well as on the example of initiatives taken by other countries.

    Abstract Globally, at least one adverse event occurs in 10% of patients using emergency, inpatient, outpatient, surgical and primary care services. Particularly in emergency health care, this problem is exacerbated by additional variables such as patient criticality, high-risk diagnostic and therapeutic interventions and varying levels of healthcare provider training. In relation to the last point, briefing and debriefing activities during an emergency reinforce staff training and support them in managing work resources, planning interventions and improving future performance. The aim of the scoping review is to explore the state of the art in human factors applied to emergency situations and to develop a new tool to support healthcare professionals in conducting evidence-based briefings and debriefings. This review was developed using a search strategy based on the Arksey and O'Malley's six-step framework for scoping reviews. The literature analysed and the data identified, which are heterogeneous due to different study methodologies, objectives and types of interventions, suggest that human factors applied to emergency situations are still under-researched. At the end of the data extraction, analysis process, authors' reviews, discussion rounds and comparison with the multidisciplinary team of healthcare providers, 42 behaviours, 33 elements and 8 domains were considered relevant and included in the Emergency Team Comptencies (ETC) briefing and debriefing tool, ranked in order of priority as follows: communication, decision-making, clinical skills, situational awareness, leadership, task management, collaboration and stress and fatigue management. Further research is needed to investigate human factors applied to emergency situations and to generate new evidence to improve clinical practice and reduce the risk of error. In the near future, further studies will be conducted by the authors to test the validity of the Emergency Team Competencies tool in objectively measuring the performance of professionals and multidisciplinary teams.

    Abstract Background: Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) has become increasingly employed for the treatment of cT3-4 breast cancer (BC), enabling breast-conserving surgery (BCS) in cases traditionally considered for mastectomy. This study aims to identify predictors for breast conservation post-NAT and to evaluate whether BCS influences long-term oncological outcomes.
    Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from patients with cT3-4 BC who received NAT at the Breast Unit of IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Milan, Italy, from October 2009 to April 2020. Surgical outcomes and long-term oncological results, such as disease-free survival (DFS), distant DFS (DDFS), overall survival (OS), and BC-specific survival (BCSS), were compared between the BCS and mastectomy groups.
    Results: Among 114 patients analyzed, 37 (32.5%) underwent BCS, and 77 (67.5%) had a mastectomy. The key predictors for opting for BCS included absence of vascular invasion, reduced tumor size post-NAT, and achieving ypT0 status. No significant differences in DFS, DDFS, OS, and BCSS were observed between the two surgical groups (log-ranks,
    Conclusions: BCS after NAT is a feasible and safe option for patients with cT3-4 BC, without adversely affecting long-term oncological outcomes. Identifying predictors of breast conservation can guide surgical decision-making, ensuring that patients receive optimal treatment.

    Abstract Introduction: The present study aimed at testing the longitudinal feasibility of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) in an Italian cohort of non-demented amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients.
    Methods: N=39 non-demented ALS patients were followed-up at a 5-to-10-month interval (M=6.8; SD=1.4) with the MoCA and the Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioral ALS Screen (ECAS). Practice effects, test-retest reliability and predictive validity (against follow-up ECAS scores) were assessed. Reliable change indices (RCIs) were derived via a regression-based approach by accounting for retest interval and baseline confounders (i.e., demographics, disease duration and severity and progression rate).
    Results: At retest, 100% and 69.2% of patients completed the ECAS and the MoCA, respectively. Patients who could not complete the MoCA showed a slightly more severe and fast-progressing disease. The MoCA was not subject to practice effects (t(32)=-.80; p=.429) and was reliable at retest (ICC=.82). Moreover, baseline MoCA scores predicted the ECAS at retest. RCIs were successfully derived - with baseline MoCA scores being the only significant predictor of retest performances (ps<.001).
    Conclusions: As long as motor disabilities do not undermine its applicability, the MoCA appears to be longitudinally feasible at a 5-to-10-month interval in non-demented ALS patients. However, ALS-specific screeners - such as the ECAS - should be preferred whenever possible.

    Abstract Studying biomolecules in their native environment represents the ideal sample condition for structural biology investigations. Here we present a novel protocol which allows to delivery proteins into eukaryotic cells through a mild thermal stimulation. The data presented herein show the efficacy of this approach for delivering proteins in the intracellular environment of mammalian cells reaching a concentration range suitable for successfully applying biophysical methods, such as double electron electron resonance (DEER) measurements for characterising protein conformations.
