Comparison of Single-Echo T2-weighted Fast Spin-Echo and Conventional Spin-Echo MR Sequences
1998
We compared single-echo T2-weighted fast spin-echo (FSE) magnetic resonance imaging and conventional spin-echo (CSE) T2-weighted imaging in the detection of brain lesions of multiple sclerosis (MS). 16 patients with clinically definite MS underwent brain imaging at 0.5 T with T2-weighted single-echo fast spin-echo (FSE) and conventional spin-echo (CSE) sequences. Image analysis was performed by three of the investigators who worked together to reduce interobserver variability. Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t test to assess the difference in the contrast-to-noise (C/N) ratio of MS lesions between CSE and FSE sequences. The Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to evaluate …
Valutazione comparativa delle sequenze fast Spin-echo e Spin-echo T2-dipendenti nella dimostrazione delle lesioni demielinizzanti encefaliche in cors…

We compared T2-weighted fast spin-echo (FSE) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and conventional spin-echo (CSE) T2-weighted imaging in the detection of brain lesions of multiple sclerosis (MS). 20 patients with clinically definite MS underwent brain imaging with both FSE and CSE T2-weighted imaging. There was no significant difference in total number of lesions detected on FSE vs CSE (1354 vs 1378). Slightly more periventricular and subcortical lesions were detected using CSE than FSE, whereas more posterior cranial fossa lesions were detected by FSE. There was no statistically significant difference in the signal intensity (SI) ratio of MS lesions to that of surrounding normal white matter …
La transmissió lingüística intergeneracional a Castelló de la Plana i la Franja: La rellevància dels usos entre progenitors
2020
Fa 50 anys, a Conflicte lingüístic valencià, Rafael L. Ninyoles situava el trencament de la transmissió familiar del català com a resultat i manifestació externa de conflictes socials i de classes, especialment visibles enmig del procés de modernització econòmica i mobilitat social accelerada del País Valencià dels anys 60 del segle XX. En aquest article partim de dos estudis de cas quantitatius sobre la transmissió intergeneracional de les llengües a Castelló de la Plana i les comarques centrals de la Franja per a actualitzar el seu diagnòstic i matisar la visió d'aquest fenomen com a resultat de decisions dels progenitors imposades verticalment a la descendència. Hi proposem que els usos …
La «innovación escondida» de las pymes industriales en el capitalismo español. Gestión, estrategias y repertorios de prácticas innovadoras en pymes m…
2019
Las pymes industriales dinámicas e innovadoras son una de las bases de prosperidad colectiva en algunos países y regiones europeas. Desde una sociología multinivel que integra los niveles micro (empresarial-organizativo), meso (regional-local y sectorial) y macro (capitalismo estatal-nacional) dentro del sistema de redes-cadenas de producción del capitalismo global, el artículo analiza la actividad innovadora de las pymes industriales, la cual se puede denominar innovación escondida al no aparecer en los indicadores convencionales de innovación. En base a 22 entrevistas semiestructuradas a directivos de pymes manufactureras de Cataluña, se aplica la Teoría Fundamentada para construir catego…

Comparison of Iodine Quantification and Conventional Attenuation Measurements for Differentiating Small, Truly Enhancing Renal Masses From High-Atten…
2019
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study is to determine whether iodine quantification techniques from contrast-enhanced dual-energy CT (DECT) data allow equal differentiation of small enhancing renal masses from high-attenuation (> 20 HU of unenhanced attenuation) nonenhancing lesions, compared with conventional attenuation measurements. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A total of 220 nonconsecutive patients (mean [± SD] age, 66 ± 13 years; 130 men and 90 women) with 265 high-attenuation renal lesions (mean attenuation, 54 ± 33 HU; 91 enhancing lesions) were included. Each patient underwent single-energy unenhanced CT followed by DECT during the nephrographic phase using one of four different high-en…
Nest aggregation and reproductive synchrony promote Lesser Kestrel Falco naumanni seasonal fitness
2013
Several factors promote coloniality by enhancing the fitness of colony members. In birds, spatial proximity among nests, breeder abundance and reproductive synchrony have been proposed as primary factors responsible for enhanced colonial defence and foraging success, which, in turn, enhance reproductive success. Whether these factors function synergistically or antagonistically remains, however, an open question due to the absence of an integrated analysis of their effects on fitness. We studied a large population of the Lesser Kestrel, Falco naumanni, a facultative colonial species, breeding in colonies of different sizes in their typical pseudo-steppe habitat. We quantified both the singu…

Atypical epithelial hyperplasia of the breast: state of the art.
2016
International audience; Introduction: Atypical epithelial hyperplasia (AEH) of the breast is considered benign histological lesions with breast cancer risk. This review focuses on clinical signification and management of AEH that remains controversial. Areas covered: A review of published studies was performed using medline database. In this review, we fully describe the current evidence available. In particular, we describe 1) data from immunohistochemistry and molecular studies that suggest AEH is a precursor of breast cancer; 2) epidemiological studies demonstrate low rate of breast cancer in women with AEH; 3) surgical excision is necessary after diagnosis of AEH, such as lobular carcin…
