Plasma levels of atrial natriuretic peptide and hemodynamic function in cardiac disease.
1993
Plasma concentrations of atrial natriuretic peptide were measured in eight patients with cardiac disease but normal resting right atrial pressure, during cardiac catheterization. No patient had clinical evidence of overt heart failure. An increase in peptide concentrations was observed between the aorta or the peripheral vein and the pulmonary artery. A linear relation was found between peripheral vein and pulmonary artery peptide concentration. Mean pulmonary artery and capillary wedge pressure also correlated with the peptide levels. No correlation was observed between mean right atrial pressure and peptide concentration. These findings demonstrate that atrial natriuretic peptide release,…
Searches for neutrinoless resonant double electron captures at LNGS
2012
Several experiments were performed during last years at underground (3600 m w.e.) Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) of the INFN (Italy) to search for resonant 2$\varepsilon0\nu$ captures in 96Ru, 106Cd, 136Ce, 156Dy, 158Dy, 180W, 184Os, 190Pt with the help of HP Ge semiconductor detectors, and ZnWO4 and 106CdWO4 crystal scintillators. No evidence for r-2$\varepsilon0\nu$ decays was found, and only T_{1/2} limits were established in the range of 10^{14}-10^{21} yr.
The impact of coexistent diabetes on the prevalence of coronary heart disease.
1997
Abstract The increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease in diabetic population has been well documented, but the prevalent mechanism of this susceptibility is still only partly explained. We compared the impact of diabetes on ischemic heart disease in patients hospitalized in a public general hospital over a 10-year period. The prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD) was consistently higher among diabetic population [namely, among non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) patients] when compared with the nondiabetic population. The prevalence was similar in both genders, increasing with age, and was independent from body-mass index, history of smoking, metabolic control, o…
Relationship between quality of life and behavioural disorders in children with persistent asthma: a Multiple Indicators Multiple Causes (MIMIC) model
2020
AbstractKnowledge on multiple interdependences between quality of life (QoL) and behavioural problems in relation to asthma severity and control is undetermined. The aims of the study were: (i) to assess the relationship of QoL and behavioural problems with asthma severity and control (ii) to predict children’s “abnormal/borderline” status with variation in QoL. For these purposes a multicenter case-control study on 47 Severe Asthma (SA) and 94 Moderate Asthma (MA) children was performed. The MIMIC approach was applied to investigate the effect of SA and non-controlled asthma (NC) on QoL and behavioural disorders. Logistic regression was used to estimate probabilities of having an “abnormal…
ELEMENTO POLIFUNZIONALE DI ARREDO
2009
Il design brevettato rientra nella categoria di arredi per strutture educative destinate a bambini di età compresa tra 1 e 3 anni. L'arredo consta di due elementi indipendenti e componibili, realizzati in cartone riciclato, che possono assumere alternativamente la configurazione di poltrona e scrittoio con seduta.
