Hazelnut and cocoa spread is an Italian product containing cocoa and hazelnut. Several epidemiological studies suggest that cocoa and hazelnuts cocoa exert beneficial cardiovascular effects. To investigate whether in smokers, hazelnut and cocoa spread elicits artery dilatation via down-regulation of oxidative stress.

Introduction Unstable intra articular fractures of distal radius are frequently being managed with open reduction and internal fixation. Volar locking plate based on polyetheretherketon (PEEK) polymer has developed lately as an alternative to conventional metallic devices. The advantage of this kind of plates include the lack of metal allergies, radiolucency, low artefacts on MRI or imaging scans and the high resistance associated to loading forces.

NTRODUCTION:
The aim of our study is to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of the treatment of distal fibular fracture with the traditional stainless steel or the new radiolucent CFR-PEEK plates. The hypothesis is that there are no differences in clinical and radiological outcomes at the final follow-up between the two fixation devices.
METHODS:

In the original publication, the hydration status between survivors and non-survivors has been incorrectly mentioned in the abstract section.

The correct text should read as below:

At discharge, BIVA shows a statistically significant difference in hydration status between non survivors and survivors [respectively, hydration index (HI) 85 vs 74, p

Many patients with acute heart failure are initially managed in emergency departments (EDs) worldwide. Although some require hospitalization for further management, it is likely that a sizeable proportion could be safely discharged either directly from the ED or after a more extended period of management in an observation-type unit. Identification of low-risk patients who are safe for such an approach to management continues to be a global unmet need.

BACKGROUND:
There is little known about the baseline hemodynamic (HD) profiles (beyond pulse/blood pressure) of patients presenting to the Emergency department (ED) with acute heart failure (AHF). Assessing these baseline parameters could help differentiate underlying HD phenotypes which could be used to develop specific phenotypic specific approaches to patient care.

Background: Systemic hemodynamic characteristics of patients with suspected acute ischemic stroke are poorly
described. The objective of this study was to identify baseline hemodynamic characteristics of emergency department
(ED) patients with suspected acute stroke.
Methods: This was a planned analysis of the stroke cohort from a multicenter registry of hemodynamic profiling of
ED patients. The registry prospectively collected non-invasive hemodynamic measurements of patients with suspicion
