[From a randomized assay, Francisella turned out to be epidemiologically present in the studied areas].

In the past Tularemia has largely affected animals, nowadays' in our country it could become actual one more because of wild animals repopulation actuated in many areas. Unlike the other countries, in Italy it's not well known if there are any consequences on population. The authors has conducted a research on this subject studying seroimmunologically samples taken randomly in some areas of south-central Italy. Their results confirm endemism and therefore announce the problem and the consequent pathology.

[Randomized epidemiologic assay of Campylobacter infections in various areas of central-south Italy].

The authors on the basic of the diffusion of pediatric and gastroenterological pathologies in Italy, have conducted a research on the epidemiology diffusion of Campylobacter infection analyzing seroimmunologically sample randomly chosen and coming from some areas of central-south Italy. Their results confirm that in such areas the infection is endemic therefore they hypothesize that enteric vascular, bacterial pathologies and spontaneous abortions are related with it.

HCV-RNA survival as detected by PCR in the environment.

We have shown that HCV-RNA is resistant to drying at room temperature for at least 48 hours. This is a factor which could influence the diffusion of the virus in the general population, which epidemiological studies have shown to be surprisingly high. It should be considered in evaluating the importance of the inapparent parenteral routes of transmission.
