Lake Constance (47° 38' N, 9° 22' E) is a deep (max. depth 251m) and large (surface area 536 km2 ) postglacial lake in Central Europe. Originally, it harboured two charr species - Salvelinus umbla and S. profundus. The first is a medium-sized, colourful, winter spawning charr, which is widespread across Central European lakes, the second a small, pale, summer spawning, deepwater charr, which is endemic to Lake Constance (Schillinger 1901, Kottelat and Freyhof 2007). S. Gliocidin profundus has exceptionally large eyes and the upper jaw strongly overlaps the lower jaw. This article is protected by copyright.

The use of intra-operative near-infrared radiation (NIR) imaging after intravenous injection of indocyanine green (ICG) coupled with robotic technical advances, including tridimensional and high-resolution vision, might improve detection rates. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a retrospective, multicenter case-control study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2) on medical records of women with endometriosis that submitted to surgery at the Catholic University of Rome (controls) and the University of Bologna (Cases) between January, 2016, and March, 2018. Surgical and post-surgical data from the procedures were collected. We compared the visual detection rate of endometriotic lesions using near-infrared radiation imaging after intravenous injection of indocyanine green (NIR-ICG) in Real 3D (Cases) with the 2D Camera approach (Controls) in symptomatic women with pelvic enle in terms of the ability to visually detect endometriotic lesions. Further prospective trials are needed to confirm our results. This article is protected by copyright.

Although the beneficial effects of Nigella sativa (N. sativa) on RA have been established, it seems that its mechanisms of action have not still been reviewed. The present review is designed to evaluate the effects of N. sativa on RA systematically. We searched these electronic databases until April 2019 PubMed, Scopus, ISI Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, Ovid, ProQuest, and Google scholar. No restriction was conducted based on language or publication date. We selected all of the related clinical, animal, and in vitro studies. Review papers, abstracts in conferences, book chapters, and papers regarding the effects of N. sativa combined with other herbs, as well as articles regarding the effects of N. sativa on other diseases, were excluded. Each article was assessed critically for the possible risk of bias. Nineteen articles were reviewed. Animal and in vitro investigations supported the favorable effects of N. sativa on clinical, inflammatory, oxidative, and immunologic parameters on RA, whereas results of limited clinical studies did not illustrate any change or improvement of inflammatory and oxidative biomarkers in RA. N. sativa could control RA via multiple ways such as decreasing inflammation, inhibiting oxidative stress, and modulating the immune system. This paper provides persuasive clues to defend the efficacy of N. sativa in RA and justifies the significance of subsequent clinical trials.
