Vertical bone augmentation procedures: Basics and techniques in dental implantology
2013
An appropriate bony situation is essential for dental implant placement and bony support of soft tissues (pink esthetic). Loss of teeth often results in complex horizontal and vertical alveolar ridge defects. They demand advanced bone augmentation techniques for reconstruction. We present the different techniques and materials used in complex bone augmentation. Clinical cases show the application of the methods in the clinical setting. We present current techniques and materials used in complex bone augmentations. Clinical cases show the application of the methods in the clinical setting. Applied techniques include stabilized-guided bone regeneration (GBR), autologous local block augmentati…
Monocyte and lymphocyte apoptosis resistance in acute and chronic brucellosis and its possible implications in clinical management.
2003
This study evaluated the level of susceptibility of monocytes and lymphocytes to spontaneously induced and CH11-induced apoptosis in 16 patients with Brucella infection. The expression of some immunological and apoptotic markers was evaluated. Before therapy, monocytes showed a high level of resistance to spontaneously induced or CH11-induced apoptosis in all patients. In patients with acute infection, this resistance persisted for 10-20 days after treatment was initiated, then decreased; in chronically infected patients, it persisted after 45 days of treatment. Lymphocytes were also more resistant to CH 11-induced apoptosis. The level of activated CD8++ T lymphocytes was high in patients w…
Use of sulesomab in the diagnosis of brucellar spondylitis.
2004
ABSTRACT Twenty-two patients with suspected brucellar spondylitis were investigated to evaluate the possible diagnostic role of Sulesomab, a 99m Tc-antigranulocyte antibody Fab' fragment. Sensitivity and specificity were compared with those of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Skeletal involvement was detected by MRI in 11 cases, while leukoscintigraphy indicated normal vertebral uptake in seven of these patients, increased uptake in two patients, and decreased uptake in two patients. Leukoscintigraphy of the 11 patients negative by MRI demonstrated increased uptake in two cases. The sensitivity and specificity of leukoscintigraphy were 27.2% and 81.1%, respectively. Based on these results,…
Denitrification in pathogenic bacteria : for better or worst ?
2005
A large variety of physiological and taxonomic groups have the ability to use nitrogen oxides as alternative electron acceptors. Brucella spp. is an alpha-proteobacteriaceae that induces a persistent disease in some mammals. Recent work has revealed that a denitrifying gene cluster is important in the interaction of Brucella neotomoae with its host.
Size- and Structure-Selective Noncovalent Recognition of Saccharides by Tetraethyl and Tetraphenyl Resorcinarenes in the Gas Phase
2008
The noncovalent complexation of tetraethyl and tetraphenyl resorcinarenes with mono-, di-, and oligosaccharides was studied with negative-polarization electrospray ionization quadrupole ion trap and electrospray ionization Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass-spectrometric analysis. The saccharides formed 1:1 complexes with deprotonated resorcinarenes, which exhibited clear size and structure selectivity in their complexation. In the case of the monosaccharides, hexoses formed much more abundant and kinetically stable complexes than pentoses or deoxyhexoses. A comparison of the mono-, di-, and oligosaccharides revealed that both the relative abundance and stability of the complexe…
"Palermo - Barcellona: così simili, così distanti" in "Mediterraneo – Città, culture, ambiente, governance, migranti"
2007
Palermo e Barcellona sono due grandi città costiere del Mediterraneo, che hanno molte cose in comune; oggi, a parità di risorse culturali, storiche, paesaggistiche, ambientali, si affacciano nel terzo millennio in condizioni estremamente diversificate. Attualmente Barcellona, capitale della regione autonoma della Catalogna, è una città investita in pieno da un processo di vera e propria “rigenerazione”. Palermo, che ancora oggi possiede uno straordinario patrimonio di risorse e un grande fascino comunicativo, non sa progettare il proprio futuro.
A case of Brucella endocarditis in association with subclavian artery thrombosis.
2012
Brucellosis is a common zoonosis, endemic in Mediterranean countries, and caused by bacteria ofBrucellagenus. Brucellosis is a systemic infection and the clinical presentation varies widely from asymptomatic and mild to severe disease. Cardiovascular complications are extremely rare. We present a case of arterial thrombosis in a previously healthy young patient withBrucellaendocarditis. Careful attention must be paid to any sign or symptom of thrombosis in patients affected by brucellosis, regardless of the presence of endocarditis and cardiovascular risk factors.

No findings of dental defects in children treated with minocycline
2004
Thanks to their broad antimicrobial spectrum, tetracyclines were found to be valuable for the treatment of many infections (10). Unfortunately, they irreversibly bind to calcifying tissues and are deposited along the incremental lines of dentine and enamel, causing defects and staining, from bright yellow to dark brown (3, 5, 8). According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, tetracyclines are not indicated for the treatment of common infections in children younger than 8 years of age. However, doxycycline (a tetracycline analogue) is recommended for treatment of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in children of any age (1). Minocycline has several advantages over other tetracyclines: it is bet…
Extracorporeal shock wave-mediated changes in proliferation, differentiation, and gene expression of human osteoblasts.
2008
The goal of this study was to determine whether cell proliferation, differentiation, and gene expression of primary human osteoblasts (hOB) are influenced by shock wave application (SWA).Osteoblast cultures were isolated from cancellous bone fragments and treated with 500 impulses of energy flux densities of 0.06 mJ/mm, 0.18 mJ/mm, 0.36 mJ/mm, and 0.50 mJ/mm. Twenty-four hours and 96 hours after SWA cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, and mineralization were analyzed. The global gene expression profiling was determined 96 hours after SWA employing Affymetrix HG-U133A microarrays.After 24 hours, hOB showed a dose-dependent increase in cell proliferation from 68.7% (at 0.06 mJ/…
