[On the synopsis of the cardiac pulses attributed to Galen and to Rufus d'Ephesus].

We wished to renew the study of such an important subject with the translation and the comment on this synopsis. Besides we wished to realize if there were any differences with a previous translation made on a different text. We did not find any outstanding diversity between the two texts and we could point out that the authorship of this synopsis is neither to be attributed to Galen nor to Rufus, but to an author who followed the principles of the Alexandrian Herophilus in the interpretation of the wrist.

[Pediatric mentions in Rufus from Ephesus].

In the horizons of ancient medicine Rufus from Ephesus seems a learned and experienced doctor in every branch of his profession. He was particularly interested in children's breeding and in their illnesses. For this reason it is very important to gather and comment on the passages survived where the subjects on childhood are treated.

[Guido Vernoni and evolution of general pathology].

The new curriculum studiorum of medicine approved by Pope Leo XII in 1824, introduced the study of general pathology. A century later a new building was designated to this field when Guido Vernoni was nominated professor, following Amico Bignami, pupil of Marchiafava and working on malaria with a morphological approach. Vernoni shifted his attention on diseases as pathophysiological concatenation of events, evolving to the study of biochemical and molecular findings.
