Title	''Alpha-fetoprotein''' ('''AFP''') is a molecule...
Text Submitted by Una Smith	Source language: English '''Alpha-fetoprotein''' ('''AFP''') is a molecule produced in the developing [[embryo]] and [[fetus]]. Blood tests to measure AFP have two main applications: (1) in pregnant women, as a screening test for some kinds of [[congenital malformation]] and (2) in adults and children, as a [[tumor marker]] for some kinds of [[tumor]].
Remarks about the translation	''', [[, and ]] are Wikipedia codes; please leave them in.

Title	L' '''Alfa-feto proteina''' ('''AFP''') e' una molecola...
Translation Italian Translated by ebkrm	Target language: Italian L' '''Alfa-feto proteina''' ('''AFP''') Ã¨ una molecola prodotta nell'[[embrione]] e nel [[feto]]durante la loro fase di sviluppo. Le analisi del sangue per misurare la AFP hanno due applicazioni principali: (1) per le donne in gravidanza, come esame di controllo per individuare alcune [[malformazioni congenite]] e (2) in adulti e bambini, come [[marker tumorale]] per alcuni tipi di [tumore]].
Remarks about the translation	Medical translations are tricky. I spent some time reading on AFP and My translation was not done 100% word-by-word but it was a compromise between keeping the exact meaning using as close a number of words as possible. In my translation I used the word "molecola" because you used the word "molecule". Perhaps you should have used the word "proteine". If so, just replace "molecola" with "proteina". Cheers, marco.

Per esempio, i marker si chiamano marker anche in italiano. Anche "children" ho peferito correggerlo con bambini: in generale, in campo medico si considerano due distinzioni per etÃ : da 0 a 14 anni, e da 14 anni in su. "Some" l'ho corretto entrambe le volte con "alcuni/e" perchÃ©: - con "vari" o "diversi" si intende qualcosa di piÃ¹ di alcuni, - il di prep. art, partitivo Ã¨ un francesismo (se si puÃ² evitare, Ã¨ meglio.
