Spazio, forma, materia, contesto. La lezione perpetua di Távora

2022

Fernando Távora è certamente l’iniziatore, il fondatore e l’ideatore di ciò che è riconosciuta come la Scuola di Architettura di Porto. Una Scuola espressione, oggi, di una palingenesi dell’architettura portoghese contemporanea e, forse, senza esagerazione, di un neo-rinascimento architettonico mondiale a cavallo tra il XX e il XXI secolo. Il magister per eccellenza, colui che traccia il primo solco della strada che sarà, in seguito, percorsa dai Discenti - Alvaro Siza Vieira ed Eduardo Souto de Moura - ma con la visione duplice e antitetica di chi sa che la meta si raggiunge volgendo costantemente lo sguardo in avanti e, nel contempo, indietro, al proprio vissuto formativo e al lascito del…

Imaging-guided interventions modulating portal venous flow: Evidence and controversies

2021

Portal hypertension is defined by an increase in the portosystemic venous gradient. In most cases, increased resistance to portal blood flow is the initial cause of elevated portal pressure. More than 90% of cases of portal hypertension are estimated to be due to advanced chronic liver disease or cirrhosis. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts, a non-pharmacological treatment for portal hypertension, involve the placement of a stent between the portal vein and the hepatic vein or inferior vena cava which helps bypass hepatic resistance. Portal hypertension may also be a result of extrahepatic portal vein thrombosis or compression. In these cases, percutaneous portal vein recanalis…

Liberalizing Industrial Relations in Southern-Europe: Towards the End of a Coordinated and Egalitarian Model

2016

The paper focuses on the changes that occurred to the architecture of industrial relations in Southern-European countries during the last decade. In particular, the bargaining systems of Italy, France, Spain, Greece and Portugal are compared, with a particular attention to the legislative measures enacted under the influence of international institutions after the 2008 financial and sovereign debt crisis. The theoretical framework, under which the process of transformation is analysed, is the literature on comparative politics as recently reviewed by Thelen. At the same time, the work takes into account the labour law dogmatic category of "inderogability", represented by the couple law-bran…

Il presente lavoro analizza i cambiamenti nell'architettura delle relazioni industriali in Europa del Sud durante l'ultimo decennio. Al riguardo vengono comparati i sistemi di contrattazione collettiva di Italia Francia Spagna Grecia e Portogallo con particolare attenzione ai provvedimenti legislativi emanati dietro influenza delle istituzioni internazionali dopo la crisi finanziaria e del debito sovrano del 2008. Il contesto teorico di riferimento è rappresentato dalla letteratura in materia di politica comparata come di recente rivista da Thelen. Nel contempo l’analisi è svolta alla luce della categoria giuslavoristica di “norma inderogabile” costituita dal binomio legge-contratto collettivo nazionale figlio dei trente glorieuses. Tale architettura delle relazioni industriali è stata fortemente erosa dal rafforzamento della capacità derogatoria degli accordi aziendali. Pertanto attraverso l'uso di una comparazione multidisciplinare l'articolo dimostra che le nazioni oggetto di studio stanno transitando da un contesto di elevata regolazione verso una comune traiettoria “neo-liberale” vista la crescente asimmetria di potere tra lavoro e capitale in favore del secondo.Settore IUS/07 - Diritto Del Lavoro

Nei luoghi dell'accoglienza. Progetti per Lampedusa e Palermo

2014

Il libro raccoglie gli esiti della ricerca e della didattica dei Laboratori di Progettazione architettonica del terzo anno, svolti presso il corso di Laurea Magistrale in Architettura LM4 della Scuola Politecnica dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo, sul tema dell’accoglienza a Lampedusa e a Palermo. L’obiettivo è quello di presentare la composita esperienza di progetto e di ricerca prodotta intorno all’argomento e nello stesso tempo attivare un confronto sul paesaggio e sugli spazi urbani della città. Il libro cerca di sviluppare un percorso di ricognizione e di conoscenza attraverso l’elaborazione di progetti didattici in grado di produrre idee per la città e il territorio. The book con…

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) complications: what diagnostic radiologists should know

2022

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an effective therapy for portal hypertension complications and can successfully treat variceal bleeding and refractory ascites. Although TIPS is relatively safe, procedural- or shunt-related morbidity can reach 20%, and procedural complications have a fatality rate of 2%. Delayed recognition and treatment of TIPS complications can lead to life-threatening clinical scenarios. Complications can vary from stent migration or malpositioning to nontarget organ injury, TIPS dysfunction, encephalopathy, or liver failure. This review aims to outline the role of diagnostic radiology in assessing post-TIPS complications.[GRAPHICS].

Acute and reversible Pisa syndrome as unusual presentation of portosystemic encephalopathy

2020

Abstract We present the first case of acute and reversible Pisa Syndrome, as a clinical manifestation of a portosystemic encephalopathy bout occurring in a patient affected with cirrhosis and clinical-radiological signs of acquired hepatocerebral degeneration, without exposure to psychotropic medications. A 62 year-old man suffering from cirrhosis was admitted to our hospital for sudden onset of mild confusion and postural change. He was observed walking and standing with a tilt toward the right during the last two hours. On neurological examination, he showed bilateral asterixis and extrapyramidal signs. Clinical diagnosis of Pisa Syndrome was made in a setting of raised serum ammonia. A b…

TIPS for Prevention of Recurrent Bleeding in Patients with Cirrhosis: Meta-analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials

1999

To compare the effects of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation with those of endoscopic treatment with or without propranolol administration (i.e, conventional treatment) on recurrent bleeding, encephalopathy, and mortality by using meta-analysis of 11 published randomized clinical trials.Data from 11 relevant studies were retrieved by means of computerized and manual search. The combinability of the studies was assessed in terms of clinical and statistical criteria. Data were extracted on the basis of the intention-to-treat principle, and treatment effects were measured as risk differences between TIPS creation and conventional treatment. Pooled estimates were comp…

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt for Refractory Ascites: A Meta-analysis of Individual Patient Data

2007

Several randomized controlled trials have compared a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) with large-volume paracentesis in cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites. Although all agree that TIPS reduces the recurrence rate of ascites, survival is controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of TIPS and large-volume paracentesis in cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites by means of meta-analysis of individual patient data from 4 randomized controlled trials.The study population consisted of 305 patients: 149 allocated to TIPS and 156 to paracentesis. Cumulative probabilities of transplant-free survival and of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) were estimated…
