L'ANTICO CAMPANILE DELLA CATTEDRALE DI LECCE IN UN CONSULTO DEL 1574
2016
L'antico campanile della cattedrale di Lecce si trovava in una posizione diversa rispetto a quello esistente costruito nel 1658. La maestosa torre, con cinque ordini e una terminazione a corona, era collocata di fianco all'antica facciata principale della chiesa, sul lato sinistro. Nel 1574 a causa di numerosi crolli, gli amministratori della chiesa decisero di avvalersi del parere tecnico di tre professionisti: Padoano Schiero, Padoano Baxi e Gabriele Meschinello, chiamati ad esprimersi in merito alla pericolosità di tali crolli e allo stato della torre. Vennero prodotte tre relazioni tecniche i cui contenuti illustravano la necessità di demolire la torre al fine di scongiurare eventuali d…
Nitric Oxide-Scavenging Properties of Some Chalcone Derivatives
2002
Abstract The implication of NO in many inflammatory diseases has been well documented. We have previously reported that some chalcone derivatives can control the iNOS pathway in inflammatory processes. In the present study, we have assessed the NO-scavenging capacity of three chalcone derivatives (CH8, CH11, and CH12) in a competitive assay with HbO2, a well-known physiologically relevant NO scavenger. Our data identify these chalcones as new NO scavengers. The estimated second-order rate constants (ks) for the reaction of the three derivatives with NO is in the same range as the value obtained for HbO2, with CH11 exerting the greatest effect. These results suggest an additional action of t…
Head and neck cancer surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic: An international, multicenter, observational cohort study
2020
Background The aims of this study were to provide data on the safety of head and neck cancer surgery currently being undertaken during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Methods This international, observational cohort study comprised 1137 consecutive patients with head and neck cancer undergoing primary surgery with curative intent in 26 countries. Factors associated with severe pulmonary complications in COVID-19-positive patients and infections in the surgical team were determined by univariate analysis. Results Among the 1137 patients, the commonest sites were the oral cavity (38%) and the thyroid (21%). For oropharynx and larynx tumors, nonsurgical therapy was favored in…
Analyse économique des essais cliniques internationaux en cancérologie
2018
International audience; In oncology, as in other fields of medicine, international multicentre clinical trials came into being so as to include a sufficient number of subjects to investigate a clinical situation. The existence of tight budgetary constraints and the desire to make the best use of the resources available have resulted in the development of economic evaluations associated with these trials, which, thanks to their level of evidence and their size, provide particularly relevant material. Nonetheless, economic evaluations alongside international clinical trials raise specific questions of methodology with regard to both the design and the analysis of the results. Indeed, the cost…
Sexual, bladder and bowel function following different minimally invasive techniques of radical hysterectomy in patients with early-stage cervical ca…
2021
Abstract Purpose Despite the establishment of radical surgery for therapy of cervical cancer, data on quality of life and patient-reported outcomes are scarce. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to evaluate bladder, bowel and sexual function in women who underwent minimally invasive surgery for early-stage cervical cancer. Methods From 2007–2013, 261 women underwent laparoscopically assisted radical vaginal hysterectomy (LARVH = 45), vaginally assisted laparoscopic or robotic radical hysterectomy (VALRRH = 61) or laparoscopic total mesometrial resection (TMMR = 25) and 131 of them completed the validated German version of the Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire (PFQ). Results …
Accelerated T2-Weighted TSE Imaging of the Prostate Using Deep Learning Image Reconstruction: A Prospective Comparison with Standard T2-Weighted TSE …
2021
Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate has become the standard of care in prostate cancer evaluation. Recently, deep learning image reconstruction (DLR) methods have been introduced with promising results regarding scan acceleration. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of deep learning image reconstruction (DLR) in a shortened acquisition process of T2-weighted TSE imaging, regarding the image quality and diagnostic confidence, as well as PI-RADS and T2 scoring, as compared to standard T2 TSE imaging. Sixty patients undergoing 3T mpMRI for the evaluation of prostate cancer were prospectively enrolled in this institutional review board-approved study between O…
Legitymacja czynna domu zakonnego Ojców Augustianów w Krakowie w postępowaniu regulacyjnym
2021
Składając wniosek, a następnie pozew w trybie przepisów art. 61 ust. 1 i art. 64 ust. 2 ustawy o stosunku państwa do Kościoła katolickiego w Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej kościelna osoba prawna musi wykazać swoją legitymację czynną do złożenia wniosku (pozwu), jego popierania oraz nabycia prawa własności. Musi zatem wykazać, że jest tą kościelną osobą prawną, która została pozbawiona własności nieruchomości wskutek jej upaństwowienia (tożsamość podmiotów), lub że jest następcą prawnym tej osoby. Wystąpienie z roszczeniem o przywrócenie własności nieruchomości upaństwowionej nie jest uzależnione od tego, czy nieruchomość ta uprzednio stanowiła własność tej osoby prawnej. Może bowiem zachodzić za…
Canonical versus microcanonical analysis of first-order phase transitions
1998
Abstract I discuss the relation between canonical and microcanonical analyses of first-order phase transitions. In particular it is shown that the microcanonical Maxwell construction is equivalent to the equal-peak-height criterion often employed in canonical simulations. As a consequence the microcanonical finite-size estimators for the transition point, latent heat and interface tension are identical to standard estimators in the canonical ensemble. Special emphasis is placed on various ways for estimating interface tensions. The theoretical considerations are illustrated with numerical data for the two-dimensional 10-state Potts model.
Construction sequence analysis of long-span cable-stayed bridges
2018
Abstract In cantilever construction of long-span cable-stayed bridges the stressing sequence of stays is fundamental for establishing the final configuration of the bridge. The structural behaviour of these bridges is usually evaluated through a forward staged construction analysis, in which the values of the prestressing forces to be applied to stays are the main unknowns. A unified procedure for determining the initial cable forces and for analyzing the entire sequence is presented here, considering the geometric nonlinearity of stays through the Dischinger equivalent elastic modulus. The target is the simultaneous determination of the initial cable forces with the simulation of the const…
