Preventive effect of risedronate on bone loss and frailty fractures in elderly women treated with anastrozole for early breast cancer.
2011
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of adjuvant anastrozole, alone or associated with risedronate, on BMD and bone fracture risk in women more than 70 years old with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer (EBC). In a group of 51 elderly women (aged 76.4 ± 5.0 years) considered for adjuvant aromatase inhibitors for EBC, 24 patients with T-scores ≥ -2 and no prevalent fractures received anastrozole 1 mg/day (group A), and 27 patients with T-scores < -2, or with T-scores ≥ -2 and prevalent fractures (group B), received anastrozole (1 mg/day) plus risedronate (35 mg/week). Both groups received supplementation with 1 g calcium carbonate and 800 IU vitamin D per day. Differen…
Endoscope‐microscope combination for endonasal sinus surgery
1998
Endoscopic surgery of the rhinobasis with a computer-assisted localizer
1996
The endoscope is useful for the diagnosis and surgical therapy of diseases of the nose, the paranasal sinuses and its neighboring regions, and allows for microinvasive, functional approaches. The reduced invasiveness of therapeutic procedures is sometimes accompanied by insufficient clearness of the surgical field, however. This significant problem is solved by the computer-assisted-surgery (CAS) system, an intraoperative localizer. It allows continuous orientation based on three-dimensional reconstructed preoperative CT scans with superimposed positioning of the endoscope. We have now adapted CAS for endoscopic sinus surgery, which meant that a variety of visualization methods were tested.…
Surveying, Analysis and 3D Modeling in Archaeological Virtual Reconstruction. The inner colonnade of the naos of Temple G of Selinunte.
2012
This paper is focused on the virtual reconstruction of a portion of the naos of Temple G of Selinunte, as a case study for the definition of a method of virtual anastylosis and reconstruction of collapsed colonnades in archaeological contexts. Reconstruction is based on the combination of historical research, archaeological analysis, digital surveying, image-based modeling and laser scanning methods. The complexity of the ruins of the temple suggested a thorough archaeological analysis of the fragments of the inner colonnade of the naos. This analysis made it possible to identify reference surfaces and protective or sacrificial surfaces. The study of these surfaces, together with the dimens…
Double-balloon endoscopy for retrograde cholangiography in patients with choledochojejunostomy and Roux-en-Y reconstruction.
2009
BACKGROUND Choledochojejunal anastomoses with Roux-en-Y reconstruction excludes the biliary tract from conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) with standard endoscopes due to the length of the interposed small bowel segment. Double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) facilitates deep insertion into the small bowel and may be used to perform ERC in these patients. In the present case series we report our experience with diagnostic and therapeutic double-balloon ERC in patients with choledochojejunostomy to a long Roux-en-Y loop previously unavailable for standard length endoscopes. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between December 2004 and May 2008 15 patients (mean age: 60.2 years) with choledoc…

Inhumaciones en el ámbito rural romano: en la "villa rustica" de Catarroja, Valencia (campaña 2007-2008)
2009
Estudiamos seis enterramientos de inhumación, hallados en el transcurso de la campaña de investigación arqueológica 2007-2008, realizada en la villa rustica romana de Catarroja, Valencia. Cronológicamente han de situarse en época bajoimperial tardía, aunque, por lo menos uno, más temprano, no es contemporáneo de los restantes. Todos corresponden a personas de baja extracción social, siendo cuatro niños. (A)
La necrópolis occidental de la Valencia romana
1996
Ubicada en una pequeña elevación del terreno y junto a uno de los principales ejes viarios de la ciudad (calle Cavallers/Quart), prolongación del decumanus maximus, se localiza la necrópolis occidental de Valentia. Cronológicamente abarca desde mediados del siglo I a.C. hasta el siglo III-IV d.C. Hay que destacar que la práctica de la inhumación es anterior a la incineración y casi exclusiva, en contra de la tendencia predominante. Este hecho lo hemos puesto en relación con la raíz centro-itálica de los fundadores de Valentia y el mantenimiento de sus tradiciones de origen.
