Die Röntgendigitalanlage als Instrument zur kinematischen Untersuchung der Schulter — Eine Untersuchung zur Strahlenbelastung - Digital Radiography a…

1991

The radiation exposure during biomechanical investigation of the shoulder joint done with a digital radiography system (Polytron 1000 VR - Siemens) was measured experimentally. Total radiation dose and surface dose were determined by phantom measurements. The radiation exposure per image is about 1/6 to 1/7 of that of a conventional study. The digital radiography system used is thus suitable for kinesiologic studies of large joints in healthy volunteers.

Abstract Background The long-term effectiveness of antipsychotic maintenance treatment after first-episode psychosis (FEP) is contested. In this real-world observational study, we examined how cumulative exposure to antipsychotics within the first 5 years from FEP was associated with the 19-year outcome. Methods Finnish national registers were used to detect all patients who were hospitalized due to non-affective psychosis in the mid-1990s, and who were treatment naïve prior to the inclusion period (N = 1318). Generalized linear models with logit link function were used to estimate how cumulative exposure to antipsychotics within the first 5 years from onset was associated with mortality, w…

Wellbeing and occupational risk perception among health care workers: a multicenter study in Morocco and France

2016

International audience; BACKGROUND: The study analyzes health care workers' (HCWs) occupational risk perception and compares exposure to occupational risk factors in Moroccan and French hospitals.METHOD: Across nine public hospitals from three Moroccan regions (north, center and south), a 49 item French questionnaire, based on the Job Content Questionnaire, and 4 occupational risks subscales, was distributed to 4746 HCWs. Internal consistency of the study was determined for each subscale. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted on the Moroccan questionnaire. Psychosocial job demand, job decision latitude and social support scores analysis was used to isolate high strain jobs. Occupationa…

Endocrine Disruptors and Autism Spectrum Disorder in Pregnancy: A Review and Evaluation of the Quality of the Epidemiological Evidence

2018

Exposure to environmental contaminants during pregnancy has been linked to adverse health outcomes later in life. Notable among these pollutants are the endocrine disruptors chemicals (EDCs), which are ubiquitously present in the environment and they have been measured and quantified in the fetus. In this systematic review, our objective was to summarize the epidemiological research on the potential association between prenatal exposure to EDCs and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) published from 2005 to 2016. The Navigation Guide Systematic Review Methodology was applied. A total of 17 studies met the inclusion criteria for this review, including: five cohorts and 12 case-control. According t…

Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Mimicking Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (MRONJ): A Case Series

2021

(1) Background: Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a potential adverse drug reaction of antiresorptive and/or antiangiogenic treatment. MRONJ is mostly diagnosed by anamnestic data, clinical examination and radiological findings, with signs and symptoms often unspecific. On the other hand, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is characteristic for its pleomorphic appearance (e.g., ulcer, mucous dehiscence, non-healing post-extractive socket). We report three cases where OSCC mimicked MRONJ lesions. (2) Patients: Three patients undergoing amino-bisphosphonate treatment for osteoporosis presented with areas of intraorally exposed jawbone and unspecific radiological signs co…

Limberg fasciocutaneous transposition flap for the coverage of an exposed hip implant in a patient affected by ewing sarcoma

2017

Highlights • Hemipelvectomy with immediate reconstruction with prosthetic devices for the surgical treatment of malignant tumors is an invasive procedure. • The treatment of an exposed hip implant in these cluster of patient is extremely challenging and the literature shows how negative pressure wound therapy and myocutaneous, both pedicled and free, flaps are workhorses in these situations. • The literature shows that the gold standard in the coverage of exposed prosthetic devices and in the treatment of infected non healing wounds is represented by muscular or myocutaneous flap. • In this paper we report a successful coverage of exposed prosthetic hip implant with a local fasciocutaneous …

Molecular and Translational Classifications of DAMPs in Immunogenic Cell Death

2015

The immunogenicity of malignant cells has recently been acknowledged as a critical determinant of efficacy in cancer therapy. Thus, besides developing direct immunostimulatory regimens, including dendritic cell-based vaccines, checkpoint-blocking therapies, and adoptive T-cell transfer, researchers have started to focus on the overall immunobiology of neoplastic cells. It is now clear that cancer cells can succumb to some anticancer therapies by undergoing a peculiar form of cell death that is characterized by an increased immunogenic potential, owing to the emission of the so-called "damage-associated molecular patterns" (DAMPs). The emission of DAMPs and other immunostimulatory factors by…

La copia y el dispositivo documental. Recursos didácticos ante la cosificación del arte contemporáneo por parte de la museografía modernista

2011

Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave también en inglés Monográfico con el título: "Arte, Maestros y Museos" Se plantea una lectura crítica sobre el uso de los dispositivos documentales en la re-exposición de arte contemporáneo en museos y centros de arte, así como de la presentación cosificada de las piezas originales. Por otra parte, se analizan ejemplos del uso didáctico de la copia como alternativa para conseguir una interactuación con el espectador, situación inviable con piezas originales debido a los problemas de conservación que esto ocasionaría.

Museo y ciudadanía: áreas de confluencia en la exposición permanente del MuVIM "La aventura del pensamiento".

2011

Este artículo indaga sobre los valores educativos de la exposición referencial del MuVIM[1] “La aventura del pensamiento”, y sus conexiones con la idea del museo actual: dinámico e integrado con la sociedad de su tiempo, implicado en la educación de una ciudadanía informada, sensible y responsable. Este trabajo muestra los resultados de una parte de la investigación realizada durante el curso de postgrado “Diploma en Educación Artística y Museos” de la Universidad de Valencia durante el curso 2009/10. Palabras Clave: ciudadanía, educación, museo, patrimonio intangible. [1] Museo Valenciano de la ilustración y la Modernidad.
