Seems as if the sophistication of the women's medical programs hasn't caught up with the men yet:
Eight women unfit for Italian nationals
Fabiana Luperini and Luisa Tamanini (Team 2002 Aurora RSM) were prevented from starting the elite
women's road race in the Italian national championships Wednesday, along with six other riders,
according to a Datasport report. The Italian cycling federation determined that the results of their
health checks did not conform with national regulations.
Other riders prevented from starting include Francesca Lotti (GS Giglio Toscano), Sabrina Emmasi
(Prato Bike Marathon), Silvia Bagnone and Monia Poggi (Velo Club Vaiano Cecchi), Valeria Cucci
(Carrera Deca Equipe Romagna), and Barbara Cazzaniga (Road Runner Guerciotti).
William Dazzani, manager of Luperini's Team 2002, has been under house arrest as part of the Brescia
doping investigation opened in early June.

Rumour has it that all 8 of those women are Padans. Just a rumour though, unsubstantiated.
