Intravitreal aflibercept for the treatment of radiation-induced macular edema after ruthenium 106 plaque radiotherapy for choroidal melanoma.

2019

Purpose: To assess the efficacy of intravitreal aflibercept in patients suffering from post-radiation macular edema following plaque radiotherapy for choroidal melanoma. Methods: This prospective, interventional case series included patients affected by radiation maculopathy (RM) with macular edema secondary to ruthenium-106 plaque brachytherapy for choroidal melanoma. The effect of intravitreal aflibercept on best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central foveal thickness (CFT) detected by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (sd-OCT), and Horgan’s grading scale of RM was evaluated throughout the 24-month follow-up. Intraocular pressure (IOP) and possible complications were also reco…

Poly(alkylidenamines) dendrimers as scaffolds for the preparation of low-generation ruthenium based metallodendrimers

2011

The aim of this article is to highlight the use of nitrile-functionalized poly(alkylidenamines) dendrimers as building blocks for the preparation of low-generation ruthenium based cationic metallodendrimers having in view potential biomedical applications. Air-stable poly(alkylidenamines) nitrile dendrimers, peripherally functionalized with the ruthenium moieties [Ru(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2]+ or [RuCl(dppe)2]+, have been prepared, characterized and are being studied for their anticancer activity. The followed strategy is based on the biological advantages associated with low-generation dendrimers, the known activity of ruthenium compounds as anticancer drugs and the stability of these dendrimers at…

A study of solar thermal absorber stack based on CrAlSiNx/CrAlSiNxOy structure by ion beams

2019

Renewable energies are foreseen as a major energy resource for next generations. Among several energy sources and technologies available, Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) technology has a great potential, but it needs to be optimised, in particular to reduce the costs, with an increase of the operating temperature and long term stability. This goal can be achieved by tailoring the composition and multilayer structure of films. In this work we present and discuss the results obtained from solar absorber coatings based on nitride/oxynitride structures. A four-layer film structure, W/CrAlSiNx(HA)/CrAlSiNxOy(LA)/SiAlOx, was deposited on stainless steel substrates using magnetron sputtering deposi…

Paolo Rumiz pro Karpaty, rusyniv i rujiny istoriji

2022

Writer, journalist and traveler Paolo Rumiz is one of the most important representatives of the Italian travel literature. His published works describe two trips to Ukraine in 1999 and 2008. In particular, this writer travels through the Ukrainian Carpathians. In his writings he uses the term Ruthenia, talks about the identity of the Ruthenians, writes about the peculiarities of the character of the local peoples. The aim of the present article is to present to the reader the works of an Italian expert on the Eastern European ethno-national context, to offer an Ukrainian translation and to describe the main characteristics of the works of this Italian writer.

Structural characterization of a-plane Zn1−xCdxO (0 < x <0.085) thin films grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy.

2006

Zn1−xCdxO(11math0) films have been grown on (01math2) sapphire (r–plane) substrates by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. A 800-nm-thick ZnO buffer, deposited prior to the alloy growth, helps to prevent the formation of pure CdO. A maximum uniform Cd incorporation of 8.5 at. % has been determined by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Higher Cd contents lead to the coexistence of Zn1−xCdxO alloys of different compositions within the same film. The near band-edge photoluminescence emission shifts gradually to lower energies as Cd is incorporated and reaches 2.93 eV for the highest Cd concentration (8.5 at. %). The lattice deformation, due to Cd incorporation, has been described using a n…

Seksuaalisuus mielen rakentumisen ilmiönä : käsitteellinen tutkimus seksuaalisuutta koskevista psykoanalyyttisistä teorioista

2012

Pro graduni käsittelee kaikkiaan sitä, mitä seksuaalisuus on ja kuinka seksuaalisuudella on ratkaiseva merkitys mielen rakentumissa. Selvitän käsitteellisen tutkimuksen avulla kuinka seksuaalisuutta tulisi teoreettisesti ymmärtää ja jäsentää. Analysoin ja vertailen kolmen psykoanalyyttisen teoreetikon, Sigmund Freudin, Jean Laplanchen ja Ruth Steinin teorioita seksuaalisuudesta. Etsin heidän teorioistaan vastauksia keskeisiin kysymyksiin seksuaalisuuden olemuksesta, vauvan heräämisestä seksuaalisuuteen, seksuaalisuuden jäsentymisestä mieleen, kohteen valitsemisesta sekä seksuaalisuuden poikkeavuuksien syntymekanismeista. Selvitän miten teoreetikot kirjoituksissaan vastaavat kysymyksiin, mit…

DFT/TD-DFT Framework of Mixed-Metal Complexes with Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Bridging Ligands—Step-By-Step Investigations: Mononuclear, Dinuclear…

2021

Recently, mono- and dinuclear complexes have been in the interest of scientists due to their potential application in optoelectronics. Herein, progressive theoretical investigations starting from mononuclear followed by homo- and heterometallic dinuclear osmium and/or ruthenium complexes with NCN-cyclometalating bridging ligands substituted by one or two kinds of heteroaryl groups (pyrazol-1-yl and 4-(2,2-dimethylpropyloxy)pyrid-2-yl) providing the short/long axial symmetry or asymmetry are presented. Step-by-step information about the particular part that built the mixed-metal complexes is crucial to understanding their behavior and checking the necessity of their eventual studies. Evaluat…
