Brain Aging in Phenylketonuria
Background: Historically, the primary goal in managing phenylketonuria (PKU) has been to prevent severe and irreversible intellectual disability, as well as to address nutritional deficiencies that could lead to growth impairments or intellectual decline. Since the introduction of neonatal PKU screening in the mid-1960s, early treatment during childhood with a …
Immunological Senescence Phenotype as a Resistance Profile to Pembrolizumab in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma
This is a single-centre, observational, prospective and exploratory study, which involves the use of human tissues from patients affected by Relapsed/Refractory classic Hodgkin Lymphoma treated with pembrolizumab at the Departmental Diagnosis and Therapy program for chronic lymphoproliferative syndromes of the IRCCS AOU of Bologna. Peripheral blood samples will be used …
Knee Osteoarthritis, Aging and Metabolic Syndrome
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis. Its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Though historically regarded as a disease of mechanical degeneration, it is now appreciated that inflammation plays an important role in OA pathogenesis

ReadMap: Reading in Stroke Alexia and Typical Aging
Loss of reading ability due to stroke, called alexia, likely affects over a million Americans at any given time and causes difficulty performing many daily life functions, such as paying bills, using email/text, reading for pleasure, and reading signs in the community. Understanding the brain and cognitive basis of alexia …
Role of Transposable Elements in Septic Immune Aging
The goal of this observational study is to learn about how transposable element levels affect the patient outcomes in sepsis. The main questions it aims to answer is: Do transposable elements prematurely age the immune systems of patients with sepsis? Do transposable elements correlate with increased mortality in patients with …
Senescent Endometrial Cells in Patients With Thin Endometrial Lining
The goal of this observational study is to determine if thin endometrial lining that is unresponsive to estrogen might be associated with the presence of senescent cells in patients following long-term use of oral contraceptives. The main question it aims to answer is: Are there any senescent cells present in …
Social Relationships and Accelerated Aging in Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Survivors
This project aims to elucidate the important protective elements of social relationships and identify concrete, modifiable behavioral factors that contribute to biological and phenotypic aging in hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) survivors and can be used to develop biologically informed interventions to improve quality of life and prolong the healthspan of …
Multiparametric MRI in a Prospective Cohort of Living Kidney Donors, Recipients, and Healthy Controls: Correlations With Markers of Renal Function, Fibrosis and Ageing
Development of renal fibrosis is the irreversible culmination of various renal diseases and independently predicts adverse outcomes. Currently renal fibrosis can only be diagnosed by performing a renal biopsy. The procedure is invasive and is limited by sampling bias. In recent years there has been a significant development in magnetic …
