Background: The correlation between thalassemia and malignancies other than hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the possible relationship between other hemoglobinopathies and tumor risk have been poorly evaluated. Methods: Eight Italian specialized centers evaluated the incidence of malignant neoplasms in hemoglobinopathies as well as their sites and features. The study cohort included 4631 patients followed between 1970 and 2021 (transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia, 55.6%; non–transfusion‐dependent thalassemia, 17.7%; sickle cell disease, 17.6%; hemoglobin H disease, 8.3%). Results: A total of 197 diagnoses of cancer were reported (incidence rate, 442 cases per 100,000 person‐years). The liver was the most frequent site of tumors in both sexes, with a higher incidence (190 cases per 100,000 person‐years) in comparison with the general population found in all types of hemoglobinopathies (except hemoglobin H disease). In recent years, tumors have become the second cause of death in patients with transfusion‐dependent thalassemia. A lower risk of breast and prostate cancer was observed in the whole group of patients with hemoglobinopathies. The first cancer diagnoses dated back to the 1980s, and the incidence rate sharply increased after the 2000s. However, although the incidence rate of cancers of all sites but the liver continued to show an increasing trend, the incidence of HCC showed stability. Conclusions: These findings provide novel insights into the relationship between cancer and hemoglobinopathies and suggest that the overall risk is not increased in these patients. HCC has been confirmed as the most frequent tumor, but advances in chelation and the drugs that have led to the eradication of hepatitis C may explain the recent steadiness in the number of diagnoses that is reported here. Except for hepatocellular carcinoma, cancers are not more frequent in patients with hemoglobinopathies in comparison with the general Italian population. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma over time showed an increasing trend until 2012; since then, there has been a steady number of new diagnoses despite the increasing age of patients with hemoglobinopathies.

STORIA E GEOGRAFIA DEL LABGEONET. DAL PROGETTO ALLA COSTITUZIONE DELLA RETE DEI LABORATORI GEOGRAFICI SCIENTIFICI ITALIANI (2018) – L’intervento ricostruisce le vicende della Rete dei laboratori geografici scientifici italiani (LabGeoNet) dalla stesura del progetto al momento della sua costituzione avvenuta nella primavera del 2018. Vengono inoltre riprese le varie fasi vissute precedentemente dall’idea di fondo nel suo farsi concretamente, adottando un punto vista interno a due dei suoi principali promotori: il Laboratorio geocartografico “Giuseppe Caraci” dell’Università Roma Tre e il Centro Italiano per gli Studi Storico-Geografici. Il titolo richiama la storia e la geografia perché si delineano non solo le vicende del LabGeoNet negli ultimi anni, ma anche la dimensione spaziale dei vari laboratori coinvolti che ne costituiscono i poli distribuiti sul territorio. Delle strutture vengono presentate le affinità e le linee comuni, come le peculiarità, emerse dai dati raccolti con il primo censimento sottomesso alla comunità accademica italiana dall’AGeI e dal CISGE, con il supporto delle altre associazioni geografiche. I risultati di quella rilevazione vengono qui presentati, scomposti e analizzati criticamente, per fornire un quadro della situazione attuale (la composizione al portale www.labgeonet.it). L’auspicio per la rete è di fungere da riferimento nazionale, illustrare i punti di contatto e le differenze fra le varie realtà laboratoriali aderenti, puntare a migliorare le conoscenze reciproche e favorire le capacità di collaborazione. Non ultimo, il portale vuole porsi come vetrina verso l’esterno, ad esempio verso il mondo della comunicazione e dell’editoria, verso il mercato del lavoro. HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY OF LABGEONET. FROM THE CONCEPT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF A NETWORK AMONG ITALIAN SCIENTIFIC GEOGRAPHICAL LABORATORIES (2018) – This work reconstructs the development of the Network of Italian Scientific Geographical Laboratories (LabGeoNet) from its first design to its official constitution in the spring of 2018. The main phases of the organizational process, from the basic concept down to the full practical implementation, are summarized according to the view of two of the network’s major promoters: the “Giuseppe Caraci” geocartographical laboratory of Roma Tre University and the Italian Centre for Geohistorical Studies (CISGE). The title of this paper refers to both History and Geography because LabGeoNet is described in its temporal development as well as in its spatial articulation, where individual laboratories become nodes of a network connecting regions. Operating structures and institutions are described in their similarities and common features and also in their peculiar aspects, as emerged from the data of the first general survey of laboratories, conducted within Italian academic community by AGeI and CISGE with support by other geographical associations. The results of the survey are presented, deconstructed and critically analyzed in order to offer a general picture of the current state of the art (see www.labgeonet.it). The hope is that the network will become, in the future, a nationally recognized reference, capable of highlighting common and complementary features of the adhering labs, enhancing reciprocal awareness and fostering cooperation. Last but not least, LabGeoNet aims to serve as front-desk of Italian geographers towards the outside world, e.g. in the fields of communication, publishing and professional applications.

- Abstract
A 56-year-old man presented to the Outpatient Cardiology Unit for dyspnea that had been lasting 6 months and an occasional episode of cold perspiration on climbing a flight of stairs. In the suspicion of coronary artery disease, he was prescribed a complete blood panel, an echocardiogram and a treadmill stress test. The echocardiogram, performed as late as 78 days after the first evaluation and only by chance scheduled 2 days before the stress test, enabled a diagnosis of left atrial myxoma for which the patient successfully underwent cardiac surgery. The authors discuss the aspecific and potentially misleading nature of myxoma symptoms and highlight the latency between cardiological evaluation and diagnostic echocardiography.
