Hybrid minimally invasive esophagectomy for esophageal cancer : less is more
2019
In a recently published multi-center randomized controlled trial ( New England Journal of Medicine 2019;380:152-162) Christophe Mariette and colleagues compared open transthoracic esophagectomy to hybrid esophagectomy (open thoracic phase, laparoscopic abdominal phase) for patients with resectable cancer of the middle or lower third of the esophagus (MIRO trial) (1).
Health behaviours and mental and physical health status in older adults with a history of homelessness:a cross-sectional population-based study in En…
2019
Objectives: This study compared (1) levels of engagement in lifestyle risk behaviours and (2) mental and physical health status in individuals who have previously been homeless to those of individuals who have not. Design: Cross-sectional. Participants: Data were from participants (n=6931) of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing. Measures: Participants reported whether they had ever been homeless. We used regression models to analyse associations between homelessness and (1) cigarette smoking, daily alcohol consumption and physical inactivity, adjusting for sociodemographic covariates (age, sex, ethnicity, highest level of education, marital status and household non-pension wealth) and …

An unpublished De lapidibus in its manuscript tradition, with particular regard to the Anglo-Saxon area
2007
Il saggio offre un’edizione critica e l’analisi dettagliata di un interessante lapidario latino, finora mai pubblicato, che circolava nell’Inghilterra del tardo periodo anglosassone. Nella tradizione manoscritta (che comprende, allo stato attuale, otto codici), tale opera, intitolata ‘De lapidibus’, si trova associata a testi scientifici, ovvero trattati di geometria, di musica, di tipo computistico, sulla natura dei metalli, o ancora i cosiddetti de sphaera ceali e de mensuris. Il ‘De Lapidibus’ era assai verosimilmente destinato ad un uso didattico e si inserisce in quella vasta e intricata rete di rapporti e scambi culturali e di circolazione di idee e di intellettuali che nel corso del …

Comparing the Climatic and Landscape Risk Factors for Lyme Disease Cases in the Upper Midwest and Northeast United States
2020
Lyme disease, recognized as one of the most important vector-borne diseases worldwide, has been increasing in incidence and spatial extend in United States. In the Northeast and Upper Midwest, Lyme disease is transmitted by Ixodes scapularis. Currently, many studies have been conducted to identify factors influencing Lyme disease risk in the Northeast, however, relatively few studies focused on the Upper Midwest. In this study, we explored and compared the climatic and landscape factors that shape the spatial patterns of human Lyme cases in these two regions, using the generalized linear mixed models. Our results showed that climatic variables generally had opposite correlations with Lyme d…
Diversity, virulence, and antimicrobial resistance of the KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307 clone
2017
ABSTRACT : The global spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) has been mainly associated with the dissemination of high-risk clones. In the last decade, hospital outbreaks involving KPC-producing K. pneumoniae have been predominantly attributed to isolates belonging to clonal group (CG) 258. However, results of recent epidemiological analysis indicate that KPC-producing sequence type (ST) 307, is emerging in different parts of the world and is a candidate to become a prevalent high-risk clone in the near future. Here we show that the ST307 genome encodes genetic features that may provide an advantage in adaptation to the hospital environment and t…
