additional clinical features RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Within a prospective population-based survey examining 888 subjects aged 40–79 y subjects were identified fulfilling the WHO and the National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATPIII) criteria for diagnosing the Metabolic Syndrome In these subjects and in the rest of the sample (controls) several metabolic and nonmetabolic biochemical parameters were compared RESULTS: The prevalence of the Metabolic Syndrome by WHO criteria was 34.1% (95% CI 31.0–37.2) and by NCEP-ATPIII criteria 17.8% (15.5–20.3) The prevalence was significantly higher in older subjects and in those less physically active Subjects with the Metabolic Syndrome either by WHO or by NCEP-ATPIII criteria showed higher levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein gamma-GT and soluble endothelial adhesion molecules (E-selectin vascular adhesion molecule-1 and intercellular adhesion molecule-1) and lower apolipoprotein A concentrations as assessed by the Homeostasis Model Assessment increased with the increase in the number of traits composing the syndrome found within the single individual Subjects with insulin resistance had more pronounced abnormalities in several parameters including the additional features of the syndrome (eg fibrinogen and soluble adhesion molecules) CONCLUSIONS: The Metabolic Syndrome occurs very frequently in the general population aged 40–79 y and is associated with several additional metabolic and nonmetabolic abnormalities that likely contribute to an increased cardiovascular risk Insulin

woodland near the town of Bruneck, Italy the twisting structure will provide a scenic space for respite and contemplation while blending into the surrounding growth with a fanned façade that mirrors the trees’ roots and canopies Generated by the parameters of the golden ratio and using only linear structural elements, the Lookout Tower’s winding form is the result of systematic shifts every two meters in the angles of wooden structural members along the outer façade. Interior rendering showing staircase. Image © Anton Pramstrahler and Alex NiederkoflerIn order to maximize framed views of the forest from within, the structure relies on hexagonal floor plates that vary in size and angle as occupants move vertically. These are connected by a continuous internal staircase and serve as punctuated platforms for resting and viewing the forest from shifting standpoints. At the wide “roots” of the tower, the façade peels away to reveal a welcoming entrance for visitors. As they reach the “canopy” at the top, they are greeted with a gathering area revealing a panoramic view of the valley and forest. Entrance at the Tower's "roots".

San Candido/Innichen - Lienz (A) has been an international tourist destination since the beginning of the 1900s This town is home to the Magnifica Comunità di Fiemme an institution that has been managing the valley’s woods and pastures since 1111 Cavalese is home to many Nordic skiing competitions the finish line of the Marcialonga and the Alpe Cermis Ski Area The town of Bruneck/Brunico is the geographical and economic center of the Pustertal Valley/Val Pusteria Bruneck/Brunico is a magnet for visitors of all ages Bruneck/Brunico is located at 836 m (2,740 ft.) above sea level in the heart of a wide valley basin surrounded by tall mountains The medieval town is bordered to the north by the Ahrntal Valley/Valle Aurina and the glaciers of the Zillertal Alps and to the south by the Gadertal/Val Badia and the peaks of the Dolomites Another uphill start awaits the riders in the last stage: 11 km of regular but not to be underestimated ascent from Cavalese to the Lavazè Pass the highest peak (1808 m asl) of the entire race This is followed by a fast and very long descent towards South Tyrol with two long tunnels just before rejoining the flat and the bottom of the valley The route follows the wide state road up the Eisacktal/Valle Isarco and then into the Pustertal/Val Pusteria alternating flat stretches with slightly uphill segments the ascent becomes steeper for a couple of kilometres as it climbs towards Pfalzen/Falzes then quickly descends towards Bruneck/Brunico centred on the Mühlbach/Riomolino climb: the complete slope has an average gradient of 8.2% there will still be 19 km to the finish: five of ups and downs at high altitude six mostly flat around Bruneck/Brunico before reaching the finish line again on the main Bastion road at the end of a long straight stretch with a slight but steady climb The car parking spaces at the train stations of Bressanone/Brixen and Brunico/Bruneck will be subject to a charge in future: Bressanone/Brixen from 1 July Brunico/Bruneck from 1 September 2022. The good news: Südtirol Pass holders commuting by train can park free of charge At the new Mobility Centres in Bressanone/Brixen and Brunico/Bruneck parking was designed with a prime focus on train passengers – and on providing the most favourable conditions possible for commuters in particular the following discounts will apply to all Südtirol Pass holders: If you park your vehicle at either of those stations and take a regional train from there you can park for only a small fee – and if you return to that station on a regional train that same day The system also works for commuters who park their car at the car park every day exclusively during the night hours The prerequisite for free parking in this case is that both validations (for the outward and return journey) are made within 24 hours after the first entry into the car park you can conveniently use your Südtirol Pass to pay and to open the barrier when entering and leaving the station: Simply hold your ticket in front of the reader Parking fees: rules for Südtirol Pass holders The idea is simple: For Südtirol Pass holders parking costs a maximum of 6 EUR per day If you use your Südtirol Pass to check in on a regional train that day And if you use your Südtirol Pass to pay for a return journey on a regional train that same day Südtirol Pass holders are guaranteed to always pay the lowest possible rate; for shorter parking times that can also mean the standard hourly rate No parking discounts are available for journeys made on a regional If you’d like to use your Südtirol Pass or Euregio Family Pass to pay for parking at Bressanone/Brixen or Brunico/Bruneck train station, simply activate the Park & Ride package in your online user account within the Südtirol Pass portal The only prerequisite is a post-paid contract using SEPA Direct Debit Südtirol Pass holders with a pre-paid contract can change their payment preferences any time with just a few clicks in their user account Südtirol Pass abo+ and Südtirol Pass 65+ holders can add the Park & Ride option – provided that they have a post-paid contract and activated the option to pay for additional services Passengers travelling on a Südtirol Pass free can contact their local police station to apply for a parking permit all rail traffic between Fortezza/Franzensfeste and San Candido/Innichen will be suspended meaning that there will be no train services in the Pusteria/Pustertal valley services between San Candido/Innichen and Sillian (A) will also be suspended The tracks will remain

preparations for works on the Valdaora/Olang railway bridge which is scheduled to be completed next autumn Additional work will take place at the railway junction points outside the stations of Brunico/Bruneck and Villabassa/Niederdorf after a series of interruptions and delays to rail traffic in the Pusteria/Pustertal valley in recent months due to technical defects in the switches Rail replacement services: Throughout all of Saturday and Sunday replacement buses will leave on an hourly basis: They will call at most stations – with the following exceptions: Since the duration of each journey will depend on traffic replacement services will also run between San Candido/Innichen and Sillian (A) on an hourly basis Due to track works between Brennero/Brenner and Colle
