Long-Lasting Cranial Nerve III Palsy as a Presenting Feature of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
2015
We describe a patient with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) in which an adduction deficit and ptosis in the left eye presented several years before the polyneuropathy. A 52-year-old man presented with a 14-year history of unremitting diplopia, adduction deficit, and ptosis in the left eye. At the age of 45 a mild bilateral foot drop and impaired sensation in the four limbs appeared, with these symptoms showing a progressive course. The diagnostic workup included EMG/ENG which demonstrated reduced conduction velocity with bilateral and symmetrical sensory and motor involvement. Cerebrospinal fluid studies revealed a cytoalbuminologic dissociation. A prolonged treatmen…
Antonio Di Grado, Divergenze. Borgese, Malaparte, Morselli, Sciascia.
2014
E' al cuore pulsante di una «letteratura come ermeneutica della moralità e del dubbio», esercizio del «libero pensiero», dell’«analisi critica e della demistificazione» che convergono, da percorsi diversi, le voci narrative di Giuseppe Antonio Borgese, Curzio Malaparte, Guido Morselli, Leonardo Sciascia, e che la scrittura di Antonio Di Grado «asseconda», disegnandone contraddizioni, ambivalenze, accensioni e cadute.È una realtà personale, sociale, politica, storica che la penna degli scrittori, ritratti con appassionata lucidità da Di Grado, incide come una lama solcandone le asperità, il disincanto, le mistificazioni, oltre le spoglie «magnifiche e progressive» delle retoriche ufficiali, …

Polymer-doxycycline conjugates as fibril disrupters: an approach towards the treatment of a rare amyloidotic disease.
2014
The term amyloidosis describes neurological diseases where an abnormal protein is misfolded and accumulated as deposits in organs and tissues, known as amyloid, disrupting their normal function. In the most common familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP), transthyretin (TTR) displays this role primarily affecting the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Advanced stages of this inherited rare amyloidosis, present as fibril deposits that are responsible for disease progression. In order to stop disease progression, herein we designed an efficient family of nanoconjugates as fibril disrupters. These polymer conjugates are based on doxycycline (doxy), already in phase II trials for Alzheimer's disease…
Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathy and Diabetes: A Scoping Review
2021
Although cancer and diabetes are common diseases, the relationship between diabetes, neuropathy and the risk of developing peripheral sensory neuropathy while or after receiving chemotherapy is uncertain. In this review, we highlight the effects of chemotherapy on the onset or progression of neuropathy in diabetic patients. We searched the literature in Medline and Scopus, covering all entries until 31 January 2021. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were: (1) original article (2) full text published in English or Spanish; (3) neuropathy was specifically assessed (4) the authors separately analyzed the outcomes in diabetic patients. A total of 259 papers were retrieved. Finally, eight art…
EUROPA 2020 IN SICILIA: SPIN-OFF DI RICERCA, DISTRETTI HIGH-TECH E STRATEGIE DI INNOVAZIONE ISTITUZIONALE
2014
Gli indicatori di posizione che quantificano le priorità della strategia Europa 2020 denunciano un ritardo nello sviluppo della Sicilia rispetto alle altre regioni italiane. Per ridurre tali divari si propongono strategie trainate dall`innovazione quali ad esempio distretti tecnologici e spin-off di ricerca. Dopo un excursus di letteratura volto a mettere a confronto queste due forme di innovazione tecnologica ed organizzativa, viene proposto un esercizio empirico che intende verificare quanto la creazione di imprenditorialità da parte dell’Università può contribuire alla riduzione dei divari di sviluppo. Si intende proporre alcune suggerimenti di policy per aumentare la loro efficacia nell…
A European Multi Lake Survey dataset of environmental variables, phytoplankton pigments and cyanotoxins
2018
Under ongoing climate change and increasing anthropogenic activity, which continuously challenge ecosystem resilience, an in-depth understanding of ecological processes is urgently needed. Lakes, as providers of numerous ecosystem services, face multiple stressors that threaten their functioning. Harmful cyanobacterial blooms are a persistent problem resulting from nutrient pollution and climate-change induced stressors, like poor transparency, increased water temperature and enhanced stratification. Consistency in data collection and analysis methods is necessary to achieve fully comparable datasets and for statistical validity, avoiding issues linked to disparate data sources. The Europea…
