Endoluminal stent-graft relining of visceral artery bypass grafts to treat perigraft seroma.
2013
Purpose: To describe the endovascular treatment of intra-abdominal perigraft seromas associated with small-caliber expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) grafts. Case Reports: Two patients who underwent hybrid repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms in which renovisceral bypass grafts were implanted presented with large, symptomatic perigraft seromas. The 5- to 8-mm-diameter ePTFE bypass grafts believed to be involved in the seromas were successfully relined with self-expanding Viabahn stentgrafts in percutaneous procedures. The patients’ symptoms were relieved, and imaging follow-up (18 and 10 months, respectively) has shown near complete resorption of the seromas. Conclusion: It is …

A multifaceted field sampling approach for the management of extremely narrow endemic vascular plant species
2022
Extremely narrow endemic plant species (ENEs) are generally connected with micro- refugia characterized by particular environmental conditions. In-depth knowledge of the ecological requirements of ENEs is fundamental to plan appropriate conservation measures. Using cross-cutting technology, this paper gives a multifaceted approach to collect on-site data on the ecology of ENEs, defines the protocols for a correct sampling design and describes the type of equipment, the time and expenditure needed. Our sampling approach is based on two orthogonal transects, long enough to extrapolate the whole ecological gradient across the area of occupancy of the target species. Microclimatic data are reco…
Aislamiento y función de células progenitoras endoteliales de sangre periférica durante la evolución clínica de pacientes con infarto agudo de miocar…
2015
Las células endoteliales (CE) recubren el interior de los vasos sanguíneos constituyendo el endotelio, actualmente considerado un órgano muy activo e implicado en la regulación del tono vascular, el tráfico de células sanguíneas, el equilibrio hemostático, la permeabilidad, la proliferación, la supervivencia, y la respuesta inmunitaria tanto adaptativa como innata. Los factores de riesgo cardiovascular como la hipercolesterolemia, la diabetes y el tabaquismo pueden causar lesiones endoteliales, uno de los principales desencadenantes de la patogénesis en la aterosclerosis, predisponiendo al desarrollo y progresión de enfermedades cardiovasculares. Hoy en día, las enfermedades cardiovasculare…
Discovery of a new class of sortase a transpeptidase inhibitors to tackle gram-positive pathogens: 2-(2-phenylhydrazinylidene)alkanoic acids and rela…
2016
A FRET-based random screening assay was used to generate hit compounds as sortase A inhibitors that allowed us to identify ethyl 3-oxo-2-(2-phenylhydrazinylidene)butanoate as an example of a new class of sortase A inhibitors. Other analogues were generated by changing the ethoxycarbonyl function for a carboxy, cyano or amide group, or introducing substituents in the phenyl ring of the ester and acid derivatives. The most active derivative found was 3-oxo-2-(2-(3,4dichlorophenyl)hydrazinylidene)butanoic acid (2b), showing an IC50 value of 50 µM. For a preliminary assessment of their antivirulence properties the new derivatives were tested for their antibiofilm activity. The most active compo…
Remodeling Pattern of Spinal Canal after Full Endoscopic Uniportal Lumbar Endoscopic Unilateral Laminotomy for Bilateral Decompression: One Year Repe…
2022
Objective: There is limited literature on repetitive postoperative MRI and clinical evaluation after Uniportal Lumbar Endoscopic Unilateral Laminotomy for Bilateral Decompression. Methods: Clinical visual analog scale, Oswestry Disability Index, McNab’s criteria evaluation and MRI evaluation of the axial cut spinal canal area of the upper end plate, mid disc and lower end plate were performed for patients who underwent single-level Uniportal Lumbar Endoscopic Unilateral Laminotomy for Bilateral Decompression. From the evaluation of the axial cut MRI, four types of patterns of remodeling were identified: type A: continuous expanded spinal canal, type B: restenosis with delayed expansio…
Split exercise training: comparison between endurance-resistance protocol, endurance-resistance-endurance protocol e resistance-endurance protocol.
2009
Numerosi studi hanno dimostrato, per la perdita di peso ed il miglioramento della composizione corporea, l’efficacia della presenza dell’esercizio aerobico ed anaerobico all’interno della stessa seduta di allenamento. Il dibattito resta però aperto riguardo alla distribuzione di queste due metodiche all’interno della medesima sessione, cioè se porre la parte “aerobica” all’inizio dell’allenamento, alla fine o, ancora, se intervallare ad essa il “lavoro anaerobico”. Alla luce di questo abbiamo condotto lo studio preliminare che verrà qui di seguito riportato. Abbiamo esaminato un campione di 25 donne e 11 uomini, per la durata di 6 settimane; i 2 gruppi sono stati suddivisi, a loro volta, in…
DNA integrity in diagnosis of premalignant lesions
2020
Background Carcinogenesis is a dynamic process which traditional biopsying can not keep up with. Saliva as fluid in the vicinity of the tumor can offer better insights to this process. This study aimed to identify the accuracy of salivary DNA integrity index in differentiating between oral premalignant lesions and oral cancer. Material and Methods This phase II diagnostic test accuracy study included 93 patients divided into three groups: 30 oral cancer patients, 33 patients with oral premalignant lesions divided into 21 oral lichen planus patients and 12 patients with leukoplakia and 30 normal individuals who acted as controls. Oral rinse was collected from all participants and they all un…
Behind the scenes of artificial intelligence: a study of micro-work platforms in France
2019
Este artículo es una versión resumida del informe “Le Micro-travail en France. Derrière l’automatisation de nouvelles précarités au travail?» This article is a summarized version of the report "Le Micro-travail en France. Derrière l’automatisation de nouvelles précarités au travail?" .; International audience; Micro-work internet services allocate small, standardized tasks of data generation and annotation to crowds of providers. The outputs are mainly used to produce artificial intelligence solutions. It is an exemplary instance of the “platformization” of the economy, and of the transformations of labour that digital technologies bring about. To uncover the conditions under which micro-wo…
