Abstract: A conjugate of oligonucleotides and bile acid derivatives having the structure (I), (II) or (III), pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and uses thereof are described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to platinum complexes containing bile acid derivatives having antitumor activity

Abstract: A container for collecting excretions, draining collections and purging ostomies, comprising a bag which is closed along its peripheral edges and on at least one face of which there is a radial arrangement of slits, which form a plurality of independent sectors, each of which is associated with a respective adhesive element intended to adhere to a portion of the skin of a patient which surrounds the exit orifice of the excretion, collection or material to be purged, the hole, which constitutes the center of the radial arrangement, expanding into an opening for the passage of the excretion, collection or material.

Abstract: A preparation for douches and/or irrigations of natural or pathological cavities in the human body which comprises water added with at least one gaseous substance selected from carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, gaseous anaesthetic substances and inert gases.

Abstract: Bile acid metal salts of therapeutic interest and pharmaceutical and veterinary composition containing same for the treatment of anemias and other conditions are described.

Abstract: A radiopaque device for use in hollow organ surgical sutures comprising a heterologous collagen tube with frusto-conical ends and provided with an annular rim in an intermediate portion, and a strip of collagen which is adapted to be wrapped around the sutured hollow organ in the manner of a band.

Abstract: A suturing gun which includes a conventional stitch applying device and comprises pliers for clamping the wound margins arranged close to the stitch outlet, further includes an external control element for actuating the pliers arranged at an easily accessible location for the surgeon when grasping the gun, and a driving system for transmitting the movement of the control element to the pliers. The suturing gun further comprises housing means for containing and retaining one or more gauze tampons, a first dispenser for containing and dispensing a disinfectant liquid or the like and a second dispenser for containing and dispensing a suture adhesive.

Abstract: A syringe for hypodermic biopsy featuring automatic plunger-return is set forth herein. It comprises a cylindrical body (1) furnished with a central cylindrical chamber (9)--the latter surrounded by an annular cavity (8)--inside which a plunger (13) consisting of two coaxial cylindrical bodies (14 and 15) with respective fore-end seals (19 and 20) is caused to slide, and in so doing create a fluid/airtight seal; the inner cylindrical body (15) of said plunger (13) carrying the moving core (6) of a hypodermic needle (7) should this be employed to the end of impeding entry into the latter of foreign bodies.

Abstract: An apparatus for intraoperative diagnosis is described which comprises a refrigerating device adapted to sprinkle a cryogenic liquid on the surface of a slide whereby the surface of the slide is cooled to at least -4.degree. C. up to -8.degree. C., at least one cooling fan which increases the evaporation of the cryogenic liquid and permits to achieve the necessary hypothermia on the slide; an automatic appositor which permits to exert a measurable and graduated pressure onto the section of the organ which has been interposed between the appositor and the slide at the time in which the section has reached a predetermined temperature. The appositor is provided with means for varying automatically the pressure during the advance of the slide. The refrigerating device comprises a cylinder containing a cryogenic liquid.
