    Notes: In a consecutive series of 165 plantar naevi, a group of 36 benign naevi with sufficiently distinctive histopathological features to justify their classification as a special entity, here designated acral-lentiginous naevus, was identified. The main morphological features distinguishing the acral-lentiginous naevi from other acral non-lentiginous naevi are: elongation of rete ridges, continuous proliferation of melanocytes at the dermo-epidermal junction, presence of single scattered melanocytes, or less commonly small clusters, within the upper epidermis, poor or absent lateral circumscription, melanocytes with abundant pale cytoplasm and round to oval, sometimes hyperchromatic, nuclei and prominent nucleoli present at the dermo-epidermal junction. Some histological features of acral-lentiginous naevi are similar to those of dysplastic naevi; however, anastomosing rete ridges, cytological atypia and well-formed lamellar fibroplasia are absent. The histopathological criteria to distinguish these naevi from melanoma are: the lack of pagetoid lateral spread, the absence of mitotic activity in the deep dermal component and the evidence of dermal naevocytic differentiation. The identification of this benign acral naevus, that we have identified as the benign counterpart of acral lentiginous melanoma, is important in order to avoid misdiagnoses and consequent under- or over-treatment of doubtful pigmented lesions of acral skin.

    Notes: Abstract The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), including dermatomyositis (DM), polymyositis (PM), and inclusion body myositis (IBM), are a group of autoimmune diseases characterized by the recruitment of lymphocytes and monocytes to the site of affection. The mechanism for recruitment of these cells likely involves chemokines. The monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), a chemoattractant to T lymphocytes and monocytes, may play an important role in the pathogenesis of IIM. Frozen muscular tissues were obtained from eight cases of DM, five PM, and four IBM. We investigated the MCP-1 expression by the reverse transcription -PCR technique, immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. MCP-1 mRNA was markedly expressed in all the IIM cases. Greater amounts of MCP-1 mRNA were observed in DM, and in situ hybridization showed MCP-1 mRNA accumulation in perivascular mononuclear cells. Immunohistochemistry showed MCP-1 expression in vessels (endothelial cells and walls of veins and arteries) in all IIM cases. Very few mononuclear cells in DM perivascular infiltrates expressed MCP-1, whereas in PM and IBM, it was strongly expressed by mononuclear cells partially invading non-necrotic muscle fibers. These findings suggest that MCP-1 can contribute to the inflammatory response by attracting monocytes and T lymphocytes to sites of cell-mediated immune injury. The morphological characteristics and distribution of positive cells indicate that macrophages, lymphocytes, and endothelial cells previously reported to produce MCP-1, contribute to its production in IIM lesions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Il metodo di Mullen e Foster è stato applicato al fine di individualizzare la posologia della fenitoina in 24 pazienti epilettici. Le caratteristiche di precisione ed affidabilità del metodo sono state valutate confrontando le concentrazioni plasmatiche previste con quelle misurate sperimentalmente. La differenza percentuale tra valori e misurati della concentrazione plasmatica di fenitoina è risultata inferiore al 15 per cento in 22 casi su 35 (63 per cento), compresa tra il 15 e il 25 per cento in 8 casi su 35 (23 per cento), superiore al 25 per cento in 6 casi su 35 (17 per cento).
    Notes: Abstract The Mullen and Foster method was prospectively applied for individualizing phenytoin dosage in 24 epileptic patients. Accuracy and reliability of the method were assessed by comparing predicted and measured values of plasma phenytoin steady-state concentration. The absolute difference between predicted and measured phenytoin levels was less than 15 percent in 22 of 35 cases (63 percent), between 15 and 25 percent in 8 of 35 cases (23 percent) and more than 25 percent in 6 of 35 cases (17 percent).
