2013
SummaryVisceral leishmaniases are vector-borne parasitic diseases caused by protozoa belonging to the genus Leishmania. The heterogeneity of clinical manifestations and epidemiological characteristics of the disease reflect the complex interplay between the infecting Leishmania species and the genetic and immunologic characteristics of the infected host. The clinical presentation of visceral leishmaniasis depends strictly on the immunocompetency of the host and ranges from asymptomatic to severe forms. Conditions of depression of the immune system, such as HIV infection or immunosuppressive treatments, impair the capability of the immune response to resolve the infection and allow reactivat…

2012
L'articolo esamina i poteri del concessionario della riscossione e approfondisce lo studio del fermo amministrativo, che può essere disposto dal concessionario della riscossione come forma di tutela del credito e la cui esecuzione è preceduta dalla notifica del c.d. preavviso di fermo. Vengono quindi trattati alcuni temi di notevole rilevanza teorica e pratica: la individuazione del giudice munito di giurisdizione a conoscere l'opposizione avverso il preavviso di fermo e la individuazione del giudice competente, nel caso in cui la giurisdizione appartiene al giudice ordinario. Sul punto l'articolo muove critiche ad un recente orientamento della Corte di Cassazione, che ha affermato la compe…
