Two Phases

This review aims to focus on main antioxidants- abundantly contained in the diet- as well as of the whole Mediterranean diet and life-style and their relationship with cognitive function, especially critical in two phases of life, in children until adolescence and oldness. The role of emerging biochemical and molecular biomarkers as opportunity to estimate more accurately nutritional assumption and requirement, in terms of cognitive preservation and disease risk, will be also discussed. The cluster of factors within the Mediterranean pattern -which include not only nutritional, but also physical, social, and stimulating aspects- is still largely understudied as a whole, but it is proposed as attractive research area and tool for public health planning of prevention and intervention.

Gi Mucosa

Clostridium subterminale is a rare member of the Clostridiaceae family that is rarely cultured. This report examines a case of Clostridium subterminale cultured from the blood of a 72-year-old man who was ultimately diagnosed with metastatic gastrointestinal (GI) adenocarcinoma. The patient was receiving treatment for nosocomial pneumonia prior to culture of the C. subterminale, which led to suspicion for malignancy. Extensive GI and oncologic workup demonstrated multiple comorbidities and a primary GI cancer, which likely caused a breach in the GI mucosa and C. subterminale entrance into the bloodstream. After a prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay, the patient died on hospital day 23. Though rarely reported, C. subterminale septicemia has been demonstrated in patients with malignancy, specifically of the GI tract. Therefore, this case represents a typical C. subterminale septicemia patient. Given the prevalence of Clostridia and the contemporary emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) microorganisms, both typical and atypical cases regarding rare members of the species have a significant role in the clinical management and public health planning.
