Impact of COVID-19 on global HCV elimination efforts.
2021
Background & Aims COVID-19 has placed significant strain on national healthcare systems at a critical moment in the context of hepatitis elimination. Mathematical models can be used to evaluate the possible impact of programmatic delays on hepatitis disease burden. The objective of this analysis was to evaluate the incremental change in hepatitis C liver-related deaths and liver cancer, following a 3-month, 6-month, or 1-year hiatus in hepatitis elimination program progress. Methods Previously developed models were adapted for 110 countries to include a status quo or “no delay” scenario and a “1-year delay” scenario assuming significant disruption in interventions (screening, diagnosis and …

Current status of phosphodiesterase inhibitors in the treatment of congestive heart failure.
1992
The phosphodiesterase inhibitors have been recognised as potent inotropic and vasodilating drugs. In acute congestive heart failure they increase cardiac output, decrease left pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, and reduce total peripheral resistance with an improvement in loading conditions of the failing heart. Their potency in reversal of symptoms of acute congestive heart failure is quite similar to, or even better than, treatment with intravenous catecholamines and sodium nitroprusside. In chronic congestive heart failure, however, these agents increase mortality and have deleterious effects in the outcome of patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction.
Antimicrobial Resistance and the Spectrum of Pathogens in Dental and Oral-Maxillofacial Infections in Hospitals and Dental Practices in Germany
2021
Data on microbiological profiles in odontogenic infections are scarce. This study aimed to analyze the spectrum of pathogens and antimicrobial resistance in clinical isolates from dental and oral-maxillofacial clinical settings in Germany. We analyzed 20,645 clinical isolates (dental practices: n = 5,733; hospitals: n = 14,912) from patients with odontogenic infections using data (2012–2019) from the German Antimicrobial-Resistance-Surveillance (ARS) system. A total of 224 different species from 73 genera were found in clinical isolates from dental practices, and 329 different species from 97 genera were identified in isolates from hospital patients. In both hospitals and dental practices S…
Être historien du Moyen Âge en Amérique latine au début du XXIe siècle: enquête
2008
International audience; Alors que la médiévistique se place de plus en plus à l'aune de l'échelle européenne et que l'on admet, mais non sans quelque résistance, que la discipline puisse occuper des chercheurs occidentaux (ceux du Nord, sur les deux côtés de l'Atlantique d'après le sens commun des hiérarchies géopolitiques contemporaines), la découverte de l'existence des historiens du Moyen Âge issus de l'« autre » Amérique, est en France, récente. L'organisation, lors du XXXVIIIe Congrès de la SHMESP, d'une table ronde avec des médiévistes de l'Amérique latine, n'est donc pas chose anodine . Elle témoigne de la progression des échanges et permet de lancer la réflexion sur les apports dive…
Ks. Konstantego Damrota opowieść o polskim Pomorzu (na podstawie Szkiców z ziemi i historyi Prus Królewskich z 1886 r.)
2022
Jedną z ważnych postaci Kościoła katolickiego na Pomorzu był ks. Konstanty Damrot (1841–1895) – syn śląskiej ziemi, wybitny literat, wieloletni dyrektor katolickiego seminarium nauczycielskiego w Kościerzynie. Zachwycony pięknem dawnych Prus Królewskich, w 1886 r. wydał pozycję książkową zatytułowaną Szkice z ziemi i historyi Prus Królewskich, Jego zamiarem było nie tylko opisanie piękna nadmorskiej krainy, ale przede wszystkim obudzenie ducha polskiego w tamtejszych mieszkańcach. Poprzez słowo pisane chciał także spopularyzować historię i kulturę nadmorskiej krainy, przesiąkniętej polskością, zbudowaną na wierze katolickiej i rodzimej tradycji. Autor w krótkiej syntezie przedstawia biogram…
«Com’è un mafioso?» Raccontare dall’interno il “mestiere” del poliziotto
2018
Il saggio analizza il racconto autobiografico che Maurizio Ortolan, (ispettore di polizia in servizio dal 1987 al 2013 presso il Nucleo centrale anticrimine) fa della sua esperienza lavorativa, con taglio asciutto ed essenziale, denso di rimandi a importanti episodi delle cronache criminali italiane degli ultimi trent’anni e carico di un vissuto che ha incrociato le biografie di alcuni dei più significativi protagonisti di quel periodo. Utilizzando uno sguardo etnografico e partendo dal racconto di Ortolan, l'autrice fa emergere quegli aspetti che, pur strettamente legati al singolo vissuto, gettano luce sulle pratiche condivise del "mestiere" del poliziotto.
A coupled discontinuous Galerkin-Finite Volume framework for solving gas dynamics over embedded geometries
2021
Author(s): Gulizzi, Vincenzo; Almgren, Ann S; Bell, John B | Abstract: We present a computational framework for solving the equations of inviscid gas dynamics using structured grids with embedded geometries. The novelty of the proposed approach is the use of high-order discontinuous Galerkin (dG) schemes and a shock-capturing Finite Volume (FV) scheme coupled via an $hp$ adaptive mesh refinement ($hp$-AMR) strategy that offers high-order accurate resolution of the embedded geometries. The $hp$-AMR strategy is based on a multi-level block-structured domain partition in which each level is represented by block-structured Cartesian grids and the embedded geometry is represented implicitly by a…
