Modification of the Mustard operation for surgical treatment of complete transposition by creating a confluence of the caval veins
2010
SummaryIn this review, I describe our modification of the Mustard operation for hemodynamic correction of complete transposition which, in principle, consists of intraatrial construction of a caval venous confluence. A new design of the intraatrial baffle has been developed using Gore-Tex. Fewer complications have been encountered with this method when compared to other techniques of atrial redirection. The Mustard procedure, therefore, will retain a future role when anatomic abnormalities, or other circumstances, preclude anatomic correction at the arterial level.
Die Sonoanatomie des Spinalkanales der LWS
2008
UNLABELLED Results of an Experimental Study and Report of Intraoperative Application: AIM Intraoperative sonography has been used in neurosurgery (especially in tumors) and in traumatology (assess reduction of dorsal vertebral body fragments). This study was performed to determine the value of sonography in detecting vertebral disc tissue. RESULTS We examined 6 specimens of the Lumbar spine using the extended flavectomy approach. We found that sono-anatomy was reproducible and that the assessable area was large enough to make sonography useful for detection of sequesters. Dislocated vertebral disc tissue could be differentiated clearly from original disc tissue and from other intraspinal st…
Impact of Cumulative Dose of Carfilzomib in Combination with Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone in Relapsed Refractory Myeloma Patients: A Retrospective …
2018
Abstract Background: Triplet-based lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (Rd) combinations have become the new standard of care for early relapse and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Carfilzomib is a novel selective proteasome inhibitor (PI) with high efficacy in RRMM. The ASPIRE phase 3 trial showed the superiority of carfilzomib-based triplet (KRd compared to Rd), leading to approval of K for RRMM. However, little is known about safety and efficacy of KRd outside a clinical trial context. Experimental design and aims: In 11 Sicilian Centers belonging to the Sicilian Myeloma Network, from November 2016, when KRd regimen was approved in Italy, to June 2018, 103 consecutive RRMM patients (previ…
Sustained Responses and Resistance to Imatinib Mesylate in the First 173 Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patients Accrued by the SCREEN Multicenter Study: F…
2009
Abstract Abstract 4276 Introduction Imatinib mesylate (IM) has shown unprecedented effectiveness in the treatment of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) patients (pts) in the chronic phase of the disease. As most of the data concerning the efficacy of the drug derive either from a single sponsored trial or from single institution reports, we decided to accrue all CML pts diagnosed in the Italian region of Sicily to the observational SCREEN (Siciliy CML Regional Enterprise) study, to evaluate the hematological, cytogenetic and molecular responses of this unselected population to IM. Patients and Methods Although the study is still ongoing, 173 consecutive CML pts have been enrolled between Januar…
Complete Vocal Technique laulunopetuksen välineenä lukion musiikinopetuksessa
2015
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää miten Complete Vocal Technique (CVT) nimistä tanskalaista laulutekniikkaa voidaan hyödyntää lukion musiikinopetuksen laulunopetuksessa. Kyseistä laulutekniikkaa käytetään niin pop/jazz-laulun, kuin klassisen laulunkin opetuksessa. Se on selkeä, yksinkertainen ja monenlaiset oppijat huomioon ottava laulutekniikka, jonka avulla opiskelijat voivat oppia ymmärtämään laulamista ja rohkaistua käyttämään omaa ääntään. Tutkimus on toimintatutkimus. Pidin kolme Complete Vocal Techniqueen liittyvää laulutyöpajaa yhdelle musiikin 1. kurssin lukiolaisryhmälle. Koska tutkimuksessa oli mukana vain yksi lukiolaisryhmä, on tutkimus myös tapaustutkimus. Työpajojen jälk…
Animalità, umanità, cultura, vita. A margine della discussione tra antropologi socioculturali.
2017
L'articolo ricostruisce alcuni momenti del dibattito sui rapporti tra umanità e animalità, evidenziando, sulla scorta di Ingold, come l'umanità sia stata pensata sia in quanto appartenenza a una specie biologica, sia in quanto condizione distintiva rispetto all'animalità. La necessità di dovere superare le antinomie che derivano dall'attribuzione di questo doppio statuto all'essere umano passa per un ripensamento del concetto di cultura
Novel inflammatory biomarkers may reflect subclinical inflammation in young healthy adults with obesity
2019
Wstęp: Otyłości często towarzyszy subkliniczny stan zapalny. W ostatnich latach zidentyfikowano kilka nowych markerów stanu zapalnego, których podstawą są wartości poszczególnych elementów morfotycznych krwi — stosunek liczby neutrofilów do limfocytów (NLR), pochodna stosunku liczby neutrofilów do limfocytów (dNLR), stosunek liczby płytek krwi do limfocytów (PLR), stosunek liczby limfocytów do monocytów (LMR), oraz stosunek liczby monocytów do stężenia cholesterolu frakcji HDL (MHR). Potwierdzono, że czynniki te są istotnie skorelowane z uznanymi wskaźnikami stanu zapalnego, takimi jak stężenie białka C-reaktywnego (CRP) i niosą ze sobą wartość prognostyczną w zakresie chorobowości i śmiert…
Monotone generalized nonlinear contractions and fixed point theorems in ordered metric spaces
2011
The purpose of this paper is to present some fixed point theorems for T -weakly isotone increasing mappings which satisfy a generalized nonlinear contractive condition in complete ordered metric spaces. As application, we establish an existence theorem for a solution of some integral equations.
Modal Consequence Relations Extending S4.3: An Application of Projective Unification
2016
We characterize all finitary consequence relations over $\mathbf{S4.3}$ , both syntactically, by exhibiting so-called (admissible) passive rules that extend the given logic, and semantically, by providing suitable strongly adequate classes of algebras. This is achieved by applying an earlier result stating that a modal logic $L$ extending $\mathbf{S4}$ has projective unification if and only if $L$ contains $\mathbf{S4.3}$ . In particular, we show that these consequence relations enjoy the strong finite model property, and are finitely based. In this way, we extend the known results by Bull and Fine, from logics, to consequence relations. We also show that the lattice of consequence relation…
