The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for Revision of the TNM Stage Groupings in the Forthcoming (Eighth) Edition of the TNM Classificatio…
2016
AbstractThe IASLC Staging and Prognostic Factors Committee has collected a new database of 94,708 cases donated from 35 sources in 16 countries around the globe. This has now been analysed by our statistical partners at Cancer Research And Biostatistics and, in close collaboration with the members of the committee proposals have been developed for the T, N, and M categories of the 8th edition of the TNM Classification for lung cancer due to be published late 2016. In this publication we describe the methods used to evaluate the resultant Stage groupings and the proposals put forward for the 8th edition.
Prima applicazione della procedura consultiva prevista nel «protocollo n. 16» cedu e tutela dei minori
2020
Il saggio analizza il primo parere consultivo formulato dalla Corte europea dei diritti dell?uomo. Particolare attenzione è rivolta al riconoscimento della genitorialità intenzionale, nonché alla tutela del diritto all?identità dei figli; diritto posto in primo piano dalla Corte di Strasburgo.
Les rapports aux savoirs du sachant : Le savoir mis en circulation par l’enseignant-tuteur EPS dans l’entretien-conseil : une étude de cas en didacti…
2021
Our work consists in making an inventory of the transmissions that take place between the P.E. tutor and his trainee during the counselling interview. This official process concludes the day of the trainee's visit to the situation and brings professional knowledge into play. In the intervention professions, each actor acts in a singular way with the public he is responsible for. This activity is nourished by the references that have structured his conceptions and the events that have built his professional experience. However, when the tutor suddenly changes his intentions, other singularities must be taken into account. The way in which he positions himself in relation to what is expected …
EAACI Position paper on the standardization of nasal allergen challenges.
2018
DR. FARID, S.H. M.H. M. Kn. - FR FARID/0000-0003-0372-4963; Gevaert, Philippe/0000-0002-1629-8468; Hox, Valerie/0000-0003-2390-294X; Wagenman, Martin/0000-0002-9734-0241; Vent, Julia/0000-0001-5071-9580 WOS: 000438710600002 PubMed: 29377177 Nasal allergen challenge (NAC) is an important tool to diagnose allergic rhinitis. In daily clinical routine, experimentally, or when measuring therapeutic success clinically, nasal allergen challenge is fundamental. It is further one of the key diagnostic tools when initiating specific allergen immunotherapy. So far, national recommendations offered guidance on its execution; however, international divergence left many questions unanswered. These differ…
Optimising experimental research in respiratory diseases: an ERS statement
2018
Experimental models are critical for the understanding of lung health and disease and are indispensable for drug development. However, the pathogenetic and clinical relevance of the models is often unclear. Further, the use of animals in biomedical research is controversial from an ethical perspective.The objective of this task force was to issue a statement with research recommendations about lung disease models by facilitating in-depth discussions between respiratory scientists, and to provide an overview of the literature on the available models. Focus was put on their specific benefits and limitations. This will result in more efficient use of resources and greater reduction in the numb…
Perioperative and periprocedural airway management and respiratory safety for the obese patient: 2016 SIAARTI Consensus.
2016
Proper management of obese patients requires a team vision and appropriate behaviors by all health care providers in hospital. Specialist competencies are fundamental, as are specific clinical pathways and good clinical practices designed to deal with patients whose Body Mass Index (BMI) is ≥30 kg/m2. Standards of care for bariatric and non-bariatric surgery and for the critical care management of this population exist but are not well defined nor clearly followed in every hospital. Thus every anesthesiologist is likely to deal with this challenging population. Obesity is a multisystem, chronic, proinflammatory disorder. Unfortunately many countries are facing a marked increase in the obese…
Communication of Science Advice to Government
2015
There are various ways to construct good processes for soliciting and understanding science. Our critique of advisory models finds that a well-supported chief science advisor (CSA) best ensures the provision of deliberative, informal, and emergency advice to government. Alternatively, bias, increasingly manifest as science-based advocacy, can hinder communication, diminish credibility, and distort scientific evidence.
The International Court of Justice and International Environmental Law
2013
The jurisprudence of the ICJ on environmental issues has increased significantly in recent years. Although some environmental cases were frustrated, either by the discontinuance of the proceedings by the Parties or because the Court found that it lacked jurisdiction on the merits, an Advisory opinion and several Judgments have already been delivered by the Court. Overall, the contribution of the Court to international environmental law is still modest, in spite of its pronouncements affirming the obligation of States to protect the environment, to prevent transboundary harm to other States or areas beyond national jurisdiction, and to carry out an environmental impact assessment before pote…
Staging systems in bipolar disorder: an International Society for Bipolar Disorders Task Force Report
2014
Objective: We discuss the rationale behind staging systems described specifically for bipolar disorders. Current applications, future directions and research gaps in clinical staging models for bipolar disorders are outlined. Method: We reviewed the literature pertaining to bipolar disorders, focusing on the first episode onwards. We systematically searched data on staging models for bipolar disorders and allied studies that could inform the concept of staging. Results: We report on several dimensions that are relevant to staging concepts in bipolar disorder. We consider whether staging offers a refinement to current diagnoses by reviewing clinical studies of treatment and functioning and t…
Workshop on Sources of Polarized Leptons and High Brightness Electron Beams
2011
This volume contains the proceedings of the International Workshop on Sources of Polarized Leptons and High Brightness Electron Beams (PESP2010). The workshop was hosted by the University of Bonn from 21–24 September 2010. PESP2010 has been conducted as satellite workshop preceding the International SPIN Physics Symposium (SPIN2010). In view of the expanding and challenging field of the production of high brightness lepton beams, the selection of workshop topics was extended to cover the demands of modern accelerator developments and applications. As novel light sources such as FELs and ERLs place new requirements on the properties of unpolarized beams in terms of brightness and intensity, …
