Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel
1798
Ms. 930a, Nr. 10, Bl. 26r-28v Schmidt-Phiseldeck, Konrad von. Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel, Kopenhagen, am 6. März 1798 Autora rokraksts / Autograph, vācu un latīņu val. / Deutsch und Latein [6] lpp. / S. Attēlu numuri / Bildnummern: 930a-010-1 – 930a-010-6 Der Verfasser äußert zum Beginn seines Briefes erneut sein Bedauern über die räumliche Trennung und wünscht sich, nach Italien zu reisen. Weimar, wo Merkel zum gegebenen Zeitpunkt wahrscheinlich weilte, glorifiziert Schmidt-Phiseldeck mit der Bezeichnung als „Weimar-Athen“. Gleichzeitig drückt der Verfasser seine Enttäuschung über die Politik Frankreichs bezüglich der Schweiz aus, erkennt aber in der Neutralität seiner neuen Heimat Dänemar…
"Penso a Turandot non finita!". Riflessioni sul capolavoro incompiuto di Giacomo Puccini
2019
Il saggio ricostruisce gli ultimi mesi della vita di Giacomo Puccini, con particolare riferimento alla composizione del terzo atto di "Turandot", agli abbozzi lasciati dall'autore al momento della morte (Bruxelles 1924) e ai successivi interventi compositivi e di orchestrazione realizzati da Franco Alfano.
Latvijas Universitātes Teoloģijas fakultātes mācību spēku darbība Latvijas Evaņģēliski luteriskajā baznīcā no 1919. līdz 1940. gadam
2018
Maģistra darbs “Latvijas Universitātes Teoloģijas fakultātes darbība Latvijas Evaņģēliski luteriskajā baznīcā no 1919. līdz 1940. gadam” mērķis izpētīt Latvijas Universitātes Teoloģijas fakultātes mācību spēku darbību Latvijas Evaņģēliski Luterisko baznīcā, galvenokārt Teoloģijas fakultātes ietekmi uz Latvijas Evaņģēliski luteriskās baznīcas vadību. Darbā tiks apskatīta Latvijas valstu kristīgās konfesijas teoloģiskā izglītība iespējas un Latvijas valdības attieksmi pret teoloģisko izglītību. Sniegs vispārēju apskatu par Latvijas Evaņģēliski luteriskās baznīcas izveidi un struktūru, kā arī to viedokli par mācītāju izglītību. Tad detalizēti tiks apskatīta Latvijas Universitātes Teoloģijas fa…
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis screening: Could a school-based assessment protocol be useful for an early diagnosis?
2020
BACKGROUND: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis screening still needs a considerable implementation, particularly throughout a school-based assessment protocol. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of clinical examinations currently in use for the diagnosis of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, through a survey carried out in secondary schools to standardize a screening protocol that could be generalized. METHODS: In their classrooms, the adolescents underwent an idiopathic scoliosis screening through three examinations: Adam’s test, axial trunk rotation (ATR) and plumb line. In case of single positivity to one of the three examinations, a column X-ray examination was recommen…
Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome in a patient with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
2011
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is an autoimmune disorder characterised by fever, microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, renal insufficiency, and thrombocytopenia. Neurological involvement, a prominent component of TTP, is characterised by a variety of brain lesions which include reversible cerebral oedema or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS). TTP is frequently associated with deficiency of the von Willebrand factor-cleaving protease, ADAMTS13.Here, we report a case of TTP with severe acute encephalopathy. Posterior leukoencephalopathy and brainstem oedema with triventricular hydrocephalus were observed on MRI. The …
A crucial role of adamantanoid Cu(II) complexes in the redox systems: CuCl–diallylsulfoxide–O2 and CuCl2–diallylsulfide–O2
2014
Abstract The hypothetically reversible [Cu(I)(diallylsulfoxide)] ↔ O 2 [Cu(II)(diallylsulfide)] system was examined by FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. It is stated that the Cu4OCl6 body centered adamantanoid cages, appearing at both the substrate and product sites, act as a template to promote the oxidation of diallylsulfide to diallylsulfoxide or Cu(I) to Cu(II), thus making the reaction irreversible. Each of these two adamantanoid cores possesses a different point symmetry as well as self assembly mode to form two polymorphs of the [Cu4OCl6(diallylsulfoxide)4] complex. Their polymorphic relationships based on the symmetry homology S4 ← Td → C3, as well as the distortion in the Cu…
Microvesicles shed by oligodendroglioma cells and rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts contain aggrecanase activity
2012
Membrane microvesicle shedding is an active process and occurs in viable cells with no signs of apoptosis or necrosis. We report here that microvesicles shed by oligodendroglioma cells contain an ‘aggrecanase’ activity, cleaving aggrecan at sites previously identified as targets for adamalysin metalloproteinases with disintegrin and thrombospondin domains (ADAMTSs). Degradation was inhibited by EDTA, the metalloproteinase inhibitor GM6001 and by tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP)-3, but not by TIMP-1 or TIMP-2. This inhibitor profile indicates that the shed microvesicles contain aggrecanolytic ADAMTS(s) or related TIMP-3-sensitive metalloproteinase(s). The oligodendroglioma cells…
Una matita morbida. Note sul capolavoro incompiuto di Giacomo Puccini
2019
Il testo ripercorre gli ultimi mesi di vita di Giacomo Puccini, con particolare riferimento alla genesi di Turandot (1920-24) e al problema degli interventi di completamento e di orchestrazione del finale del III atto realizzati da Franco Alfano.
Crystal polymorphism of (μ4–O)-body centered adamantanoid Cu(II) complexes
2016
Abstract Two novel polymorphs of [Cu4(μ4–O)(μ–Cl)6(DASO)4], (DASO = diallyl sulfoxide; C6H10OS), rhombic (C) and triclinic (D), were obtained and examined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis at two temperatures, 295(2) and 100(1) K. This study, in addition to our recent work on the tetragonal (A) and trigonal (B) forms of the title compound, allowed determining the nature of polymorphism and temperature-induced phase transitions. It is stated that both the packing arrangement and the displacive transformation integrate these structures, forming the symmetrically and thermodynamically related series: A,B → C → D. The C3h → C4 distortion of Cu(II) trigonal bipyramidal coordination ge…
