Agreement among 3 optical imaging methods for the assessment of optic disc topography.
2005
Purpose To assess the agreement of disc topography measurements between the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT II), Retinal Thickness Analyzer (RTA), and Optical Coherence Tomograph (StratusOCT). Design Observational cross-sectional study. Participants Forty-two randomly chosen eyes of 42 subjects. Methods Each subject underwent HRT II, RTA, and StratusOCT examination. Two experienced examiners drew the contour lines for the HRT II and RTA. Bland and Altman plots were used to evaluate agreement for each topographic parameter among the instruments. The Spearman coefficient of rank correlation was evaluated for each topographic parameter. Main Outcome Measures Agreement in the measurement of op…

797 Infliximab in the Treatment of Pediatric Ibd: A Single Centre Experience
2010
Background and aims: The biological treatment of IBD acts on different stages of immunophysiopathological processes of the disease. We describe evolution and clinical response to Infliximab in paediatric patients affected by IBD diagnosed and followed at our centre. Methods: In the last triennial period at our Department of Paediatrics in Palermo 53 infusions of Infliximab were administrated to our patients affected by severe forms of IBD. All patients but one were affected by several forms of CD. Only one child was affected by U.C. associated to pyoderma gangrenosum. The total number of infusions were administrated according the ACCENT 1 study at a dose of 5 mg/Kg. All the infusions were p…
Cerebellar magnetic stimulation decreases levodopa-induced dyskinesias in Parkinson disease
2009
BACKGROUND: The neural mechanisms and the circuitry involved in levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) are still partially obscure. LID can be considered the consequence of an abnormal pattern or code of activity that originates and is conveyed from the basal ganglia to the thalamus and the cortical motor areas. However, not only striatothalamocortical motor circuits but also other interconnected pathways could be implicated in its pathogenesis. METHODS: In a series of experiments, we applied repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the lateral cerebellum in a group of patients with advanced Parkinson disease, to investigate whether modulation of cerebellothalamocortical circuits…
Clinical spectrum of movement disorders after stroke in childhood and adulthood.
2011
Although rare, many different types of hyperkinetic and hypokinetic movement disorders have been described after both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke in children and in adults. Current knowledge about these disorders comes from single case reports or small series of cases compiled from retrospective studies. Data from hospital-based studies suggest a prevalence of poststroke movement disorders ranging from 1.1 to 3.9%. However, despite the development of emergency care for stroke, these clinical syndromes remain insufficiently recognized. Poststroke movement disorders take place in the acute phase or following a variable delay after stroke onset, and could be transient or persistent. Dyston…
Construint la integració des de les polítiques públiques i la participació ciutadana: l'experiència de Gandia en el periode 2005-2011
2014
La instal·lació de la immigració en el nostre territori, i el consegüent increment de la multiculturalitat, ha dut al primer pla de la gestió pública el repte de construir la integració. En el País Valencià, alguns municipis s´han vist radicalment transformats com a conseqüència d´aquesta realitat. És el cas de Gandia, un municipi amb un 24% de població estrangera que va desenvolupar, entre els anys 2005 i 2011, tot un conjunt de polítiques adreçades a promoure la integració i la interculturalitat. L´associacionisme immigrant ha jugat també un paper important en la configuració de la Gandia diversa. La política i la participació ciutadana emergeixen, així, com a actors fonamentals en el pro…
A feature of caudate control of focal hippocampal epilepsy: evidence for an anterograde pathway
1991
Previous experimental evidences showed that the caudate nucleus has a modulatory effect on hippocampal epilepsy. The caudate's regulating action might reach the hippocampus either via the septal region or, retrogradely, via the accumbens nucleus. In order to obtain new data about the pathway involved in caudate hippocampal influence the spreading of abnormal activity towards the nucleus accumbens was studied. Furthermore the effects of caudate stimulation in animals with electrolytic lesions of the nucleus accumbens were analyzed. It was observed that abnormal penicillin-induced activity spreaded from the hippocampus to the nucleus accumbens in about 30 minutes. In animals with and without …
P114 A screening tool for the early diagnosis of extraintestinal manifestations in inflammatory bowel disease: the EMAIL questionnaire
2020
Abstract Background Data on prevalence of extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) range from 6% up to 47%. Recently, several red flags and questionnaires have been proposed for early diagnosis of articular manifestations. Our aim was to analyse the prevalence of EIMs in a single-centre prospective cohort, using a comprehensive questionnaire developed by our group to detect all EIMs (EMAIL questionnaire). Methods Patients with IBD attending our Clinic from November 2017 to January 2019 were interviewed using a two-part questionnaire, the first part for clinical-demographic data and the second part for EIMs. Patients positive to screening were referred for mu…
Nuevos datos sobre la sociedad y el derecho celtibéricos: la regulación de la cabaña ganadera
2012
Basándose en varios documentos medievales, mediante los cuales los reyes de la Corona de Aragón restablecieron un tribunal especial consuetudinario (tribunal del ligallo) para devolver a sus dueños el ganado mostrenco, el Autor determina el origen de este tribunal como antiquísima institución celtibérica y reconstruye su funcionamiento y papel en las sociedades célticas de la Península Ibérica. Esta corte de justicia, propia de todas las agrupaciones celtibéricas de siete miembros (oppida), se reunía dos veces por año, coincidiendo sus sesiones con las dos grandes festividades de Beltene (1 de mayo) y de Samain (1 de noviembre), y tenía como misión resolver todos los conflictos pecuarios su…
