SHAKESPEARE: VELENO E TRAGEDIA
1999
Veleno: una parola che ricorre con insistenza nelle tragedie di Shakespeare. Quali motivazioni hanno spinto il drammaturgo inglese a inserire in tutte le sue opere almeno una volta il “veleno”? Il saggio indaga le ricorrenze del termine, ma si sofferma anche su un altro aspetto assai rilevante: tutti i personaggi che muoiono per soffocamento sono innocenti, mentre tutti quelli che sono uccisi (o si suicidano) col veleno sono colpevoli. Non può trattarsi di una coincidenza, bensì di una preordinata impostazione dell’impianto drammatico. Il volume così dimostra che in Shakespeare esiste un preciso ordine tripartito che regola le colpe di tutti i personaggi delle tragedie.
Le chiome di Thanatos. L'approccio romantico alla Morte
2010
Il volume ha ad oggetto le variazioni che hanno caratterizzato il rapporto tra l’Uomo e la Morte nella cultura occidentale. Il percorso d’analisi viene portato avanti con un approccio diacronico in una indagine che, pur concentrandosi sull’esame testuale, di concerto, si ritaglia spazi per posare lo sguardo anche sulla produzione iconografica. Il testo traccia così la progressiva variazione figurale e letteraria della Morte: da Esiodo all’era romantica, passando per il libro della Genesi. Si rileverà come da una iniziale relazione verticale, caratterizzata dall’adorazione e dal terrore per la Morte, si giunga ad una relazione progressivamente più allineata su un asse di non-terrore, e infin…

T/NK “Nasal Type” Lymphomas: An Italian Cooperative Retrospective Survey.
2004
Abstract T/NK “nasal type” lymphoma is a neoplasm that shows a peculiar geographical distribution. In fact most of the reported cases come from Far Eastern countries such as Hong Kong, and Central America, particularly from Mexico; this kind of lymphoma occurrs rarely in western countries. Between 1997 and 2004, 19 new cases of T/NK nasal type lymphoma were diagnosed in 7 Italian Hematology Division. Patients characteristics were as follows: all caucasian; 14 men and 5 women; median age 53 years (range 20–80).

2006
Abstract To evaluate clinical and biological features, treatments and outcome of patients(pts) with Systemic Mastocytosis(SM). A retrospective study (1995–2006) about pts with SM admitted in 14 Italian hematology divisions in tertiary cares or university hospitals. 30 cases of SM were collected(median age 62 y.o.; M/F 14/16) and classified according to the WHO criteria: Mast Cell Leukemia in 14 pts, Aggressive SM in 12 and Indolent in 3; the remaining one had SM with associated clonal non-mast cell-lineage hematologic disease. Skin was the principal extramedullary organ involved (19 pts) followed by spleen(15), liver(13), and cardiovascular system(12). Molecular biology studies were perform…

Drug Prescription and Delirium in Older Inpatients: Results From the Nationwide Multicenter Italian Delirium Day 2015-2016
2019
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association between polypharmacy and delirium, the association of specific drug categories with delirium, and the differences in drug-delirium association between medical and surgical units and according to dementia diagnosis. Methods Data were collected during 2 waves of Delirium Day, a multicenter delirium prevalence study including patients (aged 65 years or older) admitted to acute and long-term care wards in Italy (2015-2016); in this study, only patients enrolled in acute hospital wards were selected (n = 4,133). Delirium was assessed according to score on the 4 "A's" Test. Prescriptions were classified by main drug categories; polypharmacy w…
LE IMPOSTURE DEL CIBO. ARGOMENTI PER UNA ESPOSIZIONE DELL' 'ABSENTIA'
2008
According to Ugo Volli, «what defines the identity of any semiotic object is its ability to carry out a specific set of functions». But what happens if the semiotic object does not achieve these functions? If the semiotic object does not keep its promises? What is the relation that connects the presence of a semiotic object with its ‘natural task’? Thus, what happens for example to the food if it cannot be enjoyed, if it does not feed? If it is present on the scene but so distant as to become unreachable and to make its natural function absent? In this particular case it is appropriate to bring up the concept of absentia. «LC».

"Delirium Day": a nationwide point prevalence study of delirium in older hospitalized patients using an easy standardized diagnostic tool
2016
Background To date, delirium prevalence in adult acute hospital populations has been estimated generally from pooled findings of single-center studies and/or among specific patient populations. Furthermore, the number of participants in these studies has not exceeded a few hundred. To overcome these limitations, we have determined, in a multicenter study, the prevalence of delirium over a single day among a large population of patients admitted to acute and rehabilitation hospital wards in Italy. Methods This is a point prevalence study (called “Delirium Day”) including 1867 older patients (aged 65 years or more) across 108 acute and 12 rehabilitation wards in Italian hospitals. Delirium wa…
“Let Me Have Claudio’s Head”
2016
<div> <p>In an attempt to produce a reconstruction of the genealogy of the sources, this essay investigates the relationship between <i>Measure for Measure</i> and the <i>Gospel</i> of Matthew, examining in particular the possibility that the episode related to Claudio’s supposed beheading is somehow associated with the death of John the Baptist, as recorded in Matthew 14:1-12. In Shakespeare as well as in the Evangelist’s text, the request for the head is charged with a highly symbolic value: it is a visualization of the triumph, the gift that the instigator makes to his own superiority, a narcissistic gratification. It is an expression of personal affir…

Caspofungin for the treatment of candidaemia in patients with haematological malignancies
2010
AbstractThis study was prospectively conducted in 11 haematology divisions over a 2-year period to evaluate the efficacy of caspofungin in 24 neutropenic patients with haematological malignancies (HM) and candidaemia. These patients had received chemotherapy for HM and were neutropenic (PNN < 0.5 × 109/L) for a median of 12 days (2–41) before candidaemia. The patients received caspofungin for a median duration of 12 days (range 6–26), obtaining a favourable overall response of 58%. At 30 days, 11 patients had died (46%); candidaemia was responsible for mortality in six patients (25%). These results suggest that treatment of candidaemia with caspofungin in neutropenic HM was efficacious, as …
