How to avoid collision between PCL and MCL femoral tunnels during a simultaneous reconstruction.

2014

PURPOSE: The purpose of the present study was to assess the risk of femoral tunnel collisions between the medial collateral ligament (MCL) and the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tunnels during a simultaneous PCL and MCL reconstruction. METHODS: Fourth generation medium and large synthetic femur bones were used. On each femur, a MCL tunnel and a PCL tunnel were reamed. The MCL tunnel was drilled at 0°, 20° and 40° of axial and coronal angulations. The PCL femoral tunnel was reamed to simulate two different tunnel directions that could be obtained through an inside-out and outside-in technique. Tunnels were filled with epoxy resin augmented with BaSO4, and a multidetector CT examination of…

Neurocalcin-immunoreactive cells in the rat hippocampus are GABAergic interneurons

1998

Neurocalcin (NC) is a recently described calcium-binding protein isolated and characterized from bovine brain. NC belongs to the neural calcium-sensor proteins defined by the photoreceptor cell-specific protein recoverin that have been proposed to be involved in the regulation of calcium-dependent phosphorylation in signal transduction pathways. We analyzed the distribution and morphology of the NC-immunoreactive (IR) neurons in the rat dorsal hippocampus and the coexistence of NC with GABA and different neurochemical markers which label perisomatic inhibitory cells [parvalbumin (PV) and cholecystokinin (CCK)], mid-proximal dendritic inhibitory cells [calbindin D28k (CB)], distal dendritic …

The Intraday Interest Rate: What's that?

2015

We study the intraday interest rate in a CCP-based GC pooling repo market and its key determinants. Since collateral used in this market is identical to collateral eligible for the daylight overdraft facility of the Eurosystem, any intraday rate in this market cannot be a result of collateral constraints keeping banks from using the overdraft for arbitrage. Nevertheless, we find that in the crisis period a statistically and economically significant intraday spread (up to 60 basis points) prevailed that was only somewhat mitigated by the ECB's unconventional monetary policy measures. Our results show that this spread was mainly determined by the market liquidity of the repo market, suggestin…

A common thread for pain and memory synapses? Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and trkB receptors.

2003

Recent evidence indicates that trophic factors can exert fast effects on neurones and so alter synaptic plasticity. Here, we focus on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which exerts a modulatory action at hippocampal synapses that are involved in learning and memory, and at the first pain synapse between primary sensory neurones and dorsal horn neurones. Hippocampal and sensory neurones share some properties for the release of endogenous BDNF. In the Schaffer collateral pathway of the hippocampus, binding of BDNF to high-affinity trkB receptors is essential for the induction of long-term potentiation, a specific type of synaptic plasticity. However, the consequences of BDNF binding t…

A comment on mortgage procylicality

2012

This paper comments on mortgage procyclicality. A framework for credit constraints along the lines of Kiyotaki and Moore (1997) is applied to illustrate a potential regime shift in the credit risk assessments of mortgagees. Depending on the relationship between house price growth and the alternative rate of return the weight given to collateral and debt-servicing ability may vary according to the house price cycle as mortgagees engage in search-for-yield. The regime shifts induced by increased global liquidity and expectations of continued housing appreciation might stimulate owner-occupation and LTV-ratios and induce mortgage procyclicality.

L’escussione stragiudiziale accelerata delle garanzie reali nella proposta di Direttiva sui crediti deteriorati (NPL)

2019

The Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on credit servicers, credit purchasers and the recovery of collateral aims to reach the goal of improving the secondary market of Non Performing Loans also through a Non-judicial Enforcement that should consent creditors to enforce collaterals faster than pursuing judicial remedies. The Paper discusses this desired objective highlighting how it lacks of attention for third party creditors and how it seems still leaving room for a judicial intervention to ensure their rights.

EFFETTI AVVERSI NEI PAZIENTI IN TERAPIA CON GH IN UN CENTRO PEDIATRICO: DATI REAL LIFE

2019

OBIETTIVI Abbiamo analizzato la nostra casistica di pazienti in trattamento con GH: 145 pz (86M; 59F), età : 4-17 anni, al fine di valutare efficacia della terapia, eventuali eventi avversi, endocrinopatie insorte dopo l’inizio della terapia (tiroidite autoimmune; insufficienza surrenalica, etc) e/o iperglicemia o franco DM. METODI La casistica esaminata comprende: 6 pz con SHOX-D; 28 pz SGA; 5 con S. di Turner; 4 in terapia con GH per indicazioni diverse, previste dalla nota 39 (IRC, S. di Prader Willi). RISULTATI 3 pz (2 pz con S. di Turner; 1 pz con GHD) hanno manifestato, durante la terapia, tiroidite autoimmune e sono in terapia con L-tiroxina. 1 pz ha una diagnosi di iperinsulinismo c…
