Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To provide updated information on smoking prevalence in Italy, with a focus on type of tobacco product, including hand-rolled (HR) cigarettes. METHOD: Two nationally representative surveys were conducted in 2011 and 2012 in Italy on a total sample of 6167 adults. Information on type of tobacco most frequently smoked was collected. RESULTS: Current smokers were 21.7% (22.7% in 2011 and 20.8% in 2012) overall, 25.3% among men and 18.4% among women. Among smokers, 94.6% most frequently consumed manufactured cigarettes, 4.6% HR cigarettes, 0.5% cigars, 0.2% cigarillos, and 0.2% pipe and none smokeless tobacco. HR cigarette use was more frequent in men (6.9%) than in women (1.7%), in 2012 (5.9%) than in 2011 (3.4%), and among the young (15-24 years; 9.1%). The average estimated price of one HR cigarette was 0.09euro and that of a manufactured cigarette was 0.18euro. CONCLUSION: In 2012 we observed the lowest reported overall smoking prevalence in Italy, though change since 2008 has been limited. The proportion of HR cigarettes on total tobacco trade has appreciably increased, particularly among young male smokers, who appear to switch to affordable cigarettes in a period of economic crisis. Fiscal policies aiming to equalise the cost of different cigarette types are needed in Italy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Smoking tobacco preparations in a water pipe (hookah) is widespread in many places of the world and is perceived by many as relatively safe. We investigated biomarkers of toxicant exposure with water pipe compared with cigarette smoking. METHODS: We conducted a crossover study to assess daily nicotine and carcinogen exposure with water pipe and cigarette smoking in 13 people who were experienced in using both products. RESULTS: When smoking an average of 3 water pipe sessions compared with smoking 11 cigarettes per day (cpd), water pipe use was associated with a significantly lower intake of nicotine, greater exposure to carbon monoxide (CO), and a different pattern of carcinogen exposure compared with cigarette smoking, with greater exposure to benzene, and high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), but less exposure to tobacco-specific nitrosamines, 1,3-butadiene, acrolein, acrylonitrile, propylene oxide, ethylene oxide, and low molecular weight PAHs. CONCLUSIONS: A different pattern of carcinogen exposure might result in a different cancer risk profile between cigarette and water pipe smoking. Of particular concern is the risk of leukemia related to high levels of benzene exposure with water pipe use. IMPACT: Smoking tobacco in water pipes has gained popularity in the United States and around the world. Many believe that water pipe smoking is not addictive and less harmful than cigarette smoking. We provide data on toxicant exposure that will help guide regulation and public education regarding water pipe health risk.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Epidemiological studies suggest a protective role for beta-carotene with several malignancies. Esophageal adenocarcinoma frequently arises from Barrett's esophagus (BE). We postulated that beta-carotene therapy maybe protective in BE. MATERIALS AND METHOD: We conducted a prospective study in which 25 mg of beta-carotene was administered daily for six-months to six patients. Each patient underwent upper endoscopy before and after therapy and multiple mucosal biopsies were obtained. Additionally, patients completed a gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms questionnaire before and after therapy and severity score was calculated. To study the effect of beta-carotene at molecular level, tissue extracts of the esophageal mucosal biopsy were subjected to assessment of heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70). RESULTS: A significant (p

Abstract
Two micro-extraction methods, air-agitated liquid-liquid microextraction (AALLME) and dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME), have been compared with each other by applying them for the analysis of five triazole pesticides (penconazole, hexaconazole, diniconazole, tebuconazole and triticonazole) in aqueous samples by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID). In the AALLME method, which excludes any disperser solvent, much less volume of organic solvent is used. In order to form fine and dispersed organic droplets in the aqueous phase, the mixture of aqueous sample solution and extraction solvent is repeatedly aspirated and dispensed with a syringe. In the DLLME method, an appropriate mixture of extraction solvent and disperser solvent is rapidly injected by a syringe into the aqueous sample. Effect of the pertinent experimental factors on DLLME (i.e. identity and volume of the extraction and disperser solvents and ionic strength) and on AALLME (identity and volume of the extraction solvent, number of agitations, and ionic strength) were investigated. Under optimal conditions, limits of detection for the five target pesticides obtained by AALLME-GC-FID and DLLME-GC-FID ranged from 0.20 to 1.1ngmL(-1) and 1.9 to 5.9ngmL(-1), respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSDs, n=5) were in the range of 1-4% and 3-5% with the enrichment factors of 449-504 and 79-143 for AALLME-GC-FID and DLLME-GC-FID, respectively. Both of the compared methods are simple, fast, efficient, inexpensive and can be applied to the analysis of the five pesticides in different aqueous samples in which penconazole and hexaconazole were found. For spiked samples, the recoveries were in the ranges of 92-105%, and 92-104% for AALLME and DLLME, respectively.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are a diverse group of tumors that derive from epithelial cells with neuroendocrine differentiation. Gastroenteropancreatic NETs are a subset of NET that arise from the gastrointestinal tract. The natural history and prognosis varies widely between different gastroenteropancreatic NETs, highlighting the importance of identifying accurate prognostic and predictive biomarkers. At the 2013 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, De Braud et al. (Abstract #186) and Bellister et al. (Abstract #163) present data on two new possible biomarkers.

Abstract
In the title mol-ecular salt, C12H22N5(+).Cl(-), the cation is protonated at the dimethyl-substituted tertiary N atom. The piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation with the exocyclic N-C bond in an equatorial orientation. The dihedral angle between the piperidine ring (all atoms) and the pyrimidine ring is 14.00 (1) degrees . In the crystal, the ions are connected by N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredN hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers, which are further connected by N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredCl hydrogen bonds. Aromatic pi-pi stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid separation = 3.4790 (9) A] are also observed in the structure.

Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title phospho-ric triamide, C13H21FN3O2P, consists of two independent mol-ecules. In each mol-ecule, the P=O group and the N-H unit belonging to the C(O)NHP(O) fragment are in a syn conformation with respect to each other. An intra-molecular N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO hydrogen bond occurs in each mol-ecule. The P atom adopts a distorted tetra-hedral environment. The methyl groups of an isopropyl fragment are disordered over two sets of sites with refined occupancies of 0.458 (5) and 0.542 (5). In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked through N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO(=P) and N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO(=C) hydrogen bonds into chains along [001].

Abstract
In the title compound, C26H24BrNO5.H2O, a synthetic analogue of natural flavagline, the cyclo-pentane ring adopts an envelope conformation (the flap atom bearing the phenyl group) and the vicinal phenyl and bromo-phenyl groups are slightly shifted relative to each other [CPh-C-C-CPhBr = 36.3 (2) degrees ]. Intra-molecular N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO and C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO hydrogen bonds form S(5) motifs. In the crystal, the organic and the water mol-ecules are linked by an O-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO hydrogen bond. Pairs of organic and water mol-ecules, located about inversion centers, inter-act through O-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO hydrogen bonds, forming R4(4)(20) and R4(4)(26) motifs, which together lead to C2(2)(9) motifs. The crystal packing is also characterized by N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO and C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO hydrogen bonds between neighbouring organic mol-ecules, forming R2(2)(10) and R2(2)(18) motifs, respectively.

Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C9H11N3O2, contains two mol-ecules (A and B), which exist in Z conformations with respect to their C=N double bond. The dihedral angles between the benzene ring and the pendant hy-droxy-carbamimidoyl and acetamide groups are 28.58 (7) and 1.30 (5) degrees , respectively, in mol-ecule A and 25.04 (7) and 27.85 (9) degrees , respectively, in mol-ecule B. An intra-molecular N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredN hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring in both mol-ecules. Mol-ecule A also features an intra-molecular C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO inter-action, which closes an S(6) ring. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked by N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO, N-Hcdots, three dots, centeredN, O-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO, O-Hcdots, three dots, centeredN, C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredO and C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredN hydrogen bonds and C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi inter-actions, generating a three-dimensional network.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES: We investigated the frequency of alternative tobacco product use (loose leaf, moist snuff, snus, dissolvables, electronic cigarettes [e-cigarettes]) among smokers and the association with quit attempts and intentions. METHODS: A nationally representative probability-based cross-sectional survey of 1836 current or recently former adult smokers was completed in November 2011. Multivariate logistic regressions evaluated associations between alternative tobacco product use and smoking cessation behaviors. RESULTS: Of the smokers, 38% had tried an alternative tobacco product, most frequently e-cigarettes. Alternative tobacco product use was associated with having made a quit attempt, and those intending to quit were significantly more likely to have tried and to currently use the products than were smokers with no intentions to quit. Use was not associated with successful quit attempts. Interest in future use of alternative tobacco products was low, except for e-cigarettes. CONCLUSIONS: Alternative tobacco products are attractive to smokers who want to quit smoking, but these data did not indicate that alternative tobacco products promote cessation. Unsubstantiated overt and implied claims that alternative tobacco products aid smoking cessation should be prohibited.
