Predictive Factors for Outcome of First Allogeneic Transplant for Elderly Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
2021
Abstract Introduction/Background: The treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in patients older than 70 is extremely challenging with dismal outcome. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) has seen many advancements in the last decades showing benefits in younger ALL patients, but this treatment modality is decreasingly used with increasing age due to high treatment-related mortality. Patients and Methods: We identified 84 ALL patients 70 to 84 years old allografted In 2002 to 2019 from a matched related (23%), unrelated (58%), haploidentical (17%), or cord blood (2%) donor at EBMT participating centers with a median follow-up of 23 months. Results: The 2-year relapse incide…
External stenting with a new polyester mesh reduces neointimal hyperplasia of vein grafts in a sheep model.
2007
Objective External stents placed around vein grafts have demonstrated effectiveness in reducing neointimal hyperplasia by preventing distension of the thin-walled vein grafts when exposed to arterial pressure. However, the ideal stent material has yet to be defined. The following study investigates the short- and long-term effects of an innovative polyester mesh stent designed with optimized adaptation of circumferential compliance. Methods Following in vitro definition of the ideal macro-porous polyester stent material, a total of 12 sheep underwent implantation of bilateral carotid artery vein graft bypasses. In six sheep, the short-term outcome (four weeks of implantation) was investigat…

Improved technique for stereotactic placement of nerve grafts between two locations inside the rat brain
2008
Peripheral nerve grafts have shown the ability to facilitate central axonal growth and regenerate the adult central nervous system. However, the detailed description of a technique for atraumatic graft placement within the brain is lacking. We present a stereotactic procedure to implant a peripheral nerve graft within a rat's brain with minimal brain tissue damage. The procedure permits a correct graft placement joining two chosen points, and the survival and integration of the graft in the host tissue with a light glial reaction, with evidence of central axonal growth inside the graft, at least up to 8 weeks after its implantation.

Appropriateness criteria for the use of cardiac computed tomography, SIC-SIRM part 2: Acute chest pain evaluation; Stent and coronary artery bypass g…
2022
In the past 20 years, cardiac computed tomography (CCT) has become a pivotal technique for the noninvasive diagnostic workup of coronary and cardiac diseases. Continuous technical and methodological improvements, combined with fast growing scientific evidence, have progressively expanded the clinical role of CCT. Randomized clinical trials documented the value of CCT in increasing the cost-effectiveness of the management of patients with acute chest pain presenting in the emergency department, also during the pandemic. Beyond the evaluation of stents and surgical graft patency, the anatomical and functional coronary imaging have the potential to guide treatment decision-making and planning …
[Fotogrammi di] dialoghi interdisciplinari intorno alla cultura del progetto
2019
È indubbio che il titolo del progetto non si dichiara apertamente ma al contempo è in grado di anticipare, nella sua sintetica composizione, alcune questioni centrali che del progetto ne costituiscono il fondamento. Cap è la sigla di Comunicare al presente ma è anche, e sarebbe ingenuo considerarla una semplice coincidenza, quel numero che individua nella sua combinazione un preciso territorio sia esso grande o piccolo, centrale o periferico, poco importa, ognuno di essi perfettamente rintracciabili attraverso quella insolita corrispondenza ai cui capi stanno luoghi e numeri. Anche 18 è un numero e sta per l’anno della prima edizione del progetto che ambisce, e la presenza delle due cifre l…
Use of Unrooted Grafted Vegetable Cuttings: I. Effects of Healing Duration and Transportation Temperature
2013
ogy to overcome soil-borne diseases and pests and to add extra vigor to the plants under various environmental stress conditions. In order to advance the use of grafting in U.S. vegetable production in open fields, key issues to address include 1) increasing the propagation capacity to meet the expected large number of seedlings necessary to supply the demands of typically large farms and 2) reducing production costs. Traditionally, vegetable grafting is a labor-intensive process involving much training and logistics. However, the seasonal nature of nursery operations due to the limitation of transportation of the grafted seedlings is problematic when nurseries are interested in introducing…
Sulla corporate image
2004
Uno dei temi più interessanti relativi al design e alla comunicazione, che ha attraversato tutto il XX secolo ed è ben presente oggi, è quello relativo all'attività delle aziende (ma anche di enti pubblici e privati) per definire la propria identità e comunicarla con efficacia. Tale attività è strettamente connessa alle esigenze di competizione su mercati sempre più larghi, nonché alla necessità di affermare prodotti o servizi di nuova concezione, prima inesistenti sul mercato, come i prodotti tecnici nel loro succedersi sempre più rapido. Il tema è ben noto, oggi anche troppo insistito, e ben noti sono i termini che ad esso si riferiscono, come "corporate image" o "corporate identity", che…
