INFECTIOUS COMPLICATIONS AFTER UMBILICAL CORD-BLOOD TRANSPLANTATION FROM UNRELATED DONORS
2016
Umbilical cord-blood (UCB) is a well-recognized alternative source of stem cells for unrelated donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). As compared with other stem cell sources from adult donors, it has the advantages of immediate availability of cells, absence of risk to the donor and reduced risk of graft-versus-host disease despite donor-recipient HLA disparity. However, the use of UCB is limited by the delayed post-transplant hematologic recovery due, at least in part, to the reduced number of hematopoietic cells in the graft and the delayed or incomplete immune reconstitution. As a result, severe infectious complications continue to be a leading cause of morbidity and mort…
Optimizing artificial neural networks for the evaluation of asphalt pavement structural performance
2019
Artificial Neural Networks represent useful tools for several engineering issues. Although they were adopted in several pavement-engineering problems for performance evaluation, their application on pavement structural performance evaluation appears to be remarkable. It is conceivable that defining a proper Artificial Neural Network for estimating structural performance in asphalt pavements from measurements performed through quick and economic surveys produces significant savings for road agencies and improves maintenance planning. However, the architecture of such an Artificial Neural Network must be optimised, to improve the final accuracy and provide a reliable technique for enriching d…
The life of relationship in globalized financial economic devices: Evidences from the experience of a group-analytic transcultural workshop
2014
The present contribution - starting from the experience of the EATGA Workshop 2011 that took place in Palermo and that had as its theme “Intersubjective bonds in the globalized economy” - invites to reflect on the quality of the life of relationship and intersubjective connectedness in social contemporary world. One of the characterizing cultural phenomena influencing contemporary reality is made up by the dominant and pervasive presence of logic and language of financial markets in policies and activities that organize and articulate daily life. Theoretical hypothesis driving our research is that the structures of subjectivity, the meaning and the way of being in a relationship are charact…
Identity vicissitudes in work organizations
2014
Today’s pressing scientific and technological changes, while having an impact on the organizational life of our post-industrial world, are producing drastic transformations within organizations, creating in workers new feelings of anxiety and uncertainty. The features of the present state of crises - instability, uncertainty, weakening of family bonds – define a peculiar social and psychological uneasiness, proper of our time, as a consequence of the technological business culture prevailing today, which is destabilizing the institutional role of organizations, namely fixing the various forms of personal identity. This contribution offers, also by presenting a training experience in a busin…
Dictamen profesional sobre la fusión y escisión como extrategias alternativas en un grupo de sociedades
2021
This work is a professional, legal opinion which sets out two alternative strategies (merger by absorption and partial demerger) in order to bring together the different areas of activity of the various companies in a group of companies. The aim is to provide solutions to the questions raised by customers and, therefore, to set out clearly and simply the procedure to be followed in each of the strategies, weighing up the advantages and disadvantages from each of them

Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs): A Unique Model of Cancer Metastases and Non-invasive Biomarkers of Therapeutic Response
2021
Late-stage cancer metastasis remains incurable in the clinic and is the major cause death in patients. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are thought to be metastatic precursors shed from the primary tumor or metastatic deposits and circulate in the blood. The molecular network regulating CTC survival, extravasation, and colonization in distant metastatic sites is poorly defined, largely due to challenges in isolating rare CTCs. Recent advances in CTC isolation and ex vivo culture techniques facilitates single-cell omics and the development of related animal models to study CTC-mediated metastatic progression. With these powerful tools, CTCs can potentially be used as non-invasive biomarkers pr…
Llengua i espiritualitat en la Vita Christi d’Isabel de Villena
2015
Resum:La Vita Christi de sor Isabel de Villena es gestà en la dècada dels 60 del segle XV a partir dels tractats que l’abadessa del monestir de la Trinitat de València usava per a formar les seues monges i per a suscitar en elles la contemplació de Jesús a través dels ulls de Maria i de les dones que l’envoltaren. La comparació de la llengua i de l’estil del Tractat de la Passió i els de les edicions de 1497 i 1513 ha permès comprovar que aquells s’adaptaren a la sensibilitat religiosa i lingüística de cada moment. El llenguatge de l’abadessa, culte i popular alhora, no es deixà influir pel de Corella. Tanmateix, sor Aldonça de Montsoriu, l’editora de l’incunable, intentà 'vendre' l’«elegan…
Existence and classification of critical points for nondifferentiable functions
2004
A general min-max principle established by Ghoussoub is extended to the case of functionals which are the sum of a locally Lipschitz continuous term and of a convex, proper, lower semicontinuous function. Some topological properties of the min-max-generated critical points in such a framework are then pointed out.
