Echocardiographic Evaluation of the Cardiac Chambers in Asthmatic Patients: The BADA (Blood Pressure Levels, Clinical Features and Markers of Subclin…
2022
The “Blood pressure levels, clinical features and markers of subclinical cardiovascular Damage of Asthma patients” (BADA) study is aimed at defining the cardiovascular risk profile and the markers of subclinical and clinical vascular and cardiac damage in asthmatic patients. Very few studies have assessed asthmatic patients without concomitant heart disease through a transthoracic echocardiogram. The goal of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of morphology and/or function changes in the cardiac chambers of a sample of 86 patients with chronic asthma, referred to the dedicated outpatient unit of the Division of Respiratory Diseases of the AOUP “P. Giaccone&r…
Multicenter Consistency Assessment of Valvular Flow Quantification With Automated Valve Tracking in 4D Flow CMR
2021
OBJECTIVES This study determined: 1) the interobserver agreement; 2) valvular flow variation; and 3) which variables independently predicted the variation of valvular flow quantification from 4-dimensional (4D) flow cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with automated retrospective valve tracking at multiple sites. BACKGROUND Automated retrospective valve tracking in 4D flow CMR allows consistent assessment of valvular flow through all intracardiac valves. However, due to the variance of CMR scanners and protocols, it remains uncertain if the published consistency holds for other clinical centers. METHODS Seven sites each retrospectively or prospectively selected 20 subjects who underwent whole …
Juvenile sudden cardiac death due to congenital coronary ostial valve-like ridges: A case report and literature review
2023
Coronary artery anomalies are a heterogeneous group of congenital disorders affecting the coronary pattern with a characteristic (origin, number, number of hosts, course, etc.). They are rarely found in the population. We report the case of a 21-year-old male who died from sudden cardiac death caused by an isolated coronary ostial obstruction, secondary to a rare anomaly, the presence of a valve-like ridge consisting of a small fold in the Valsalva aortic sinus. The study provides a brief literature review on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and clinical and medico-legal issues in coronary artery anomaly cases that may be helpful in forensic practice when dealing with sudden cardiac death i…
Propiedades psicométricas del cuestionario de afronta¬miento al estrés para pacientes oncológicos (CAEPO)
2017
Los objetivos del estudio fueron: 1) analizar la estructura factorial de la escala CAEPO mediante análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio; 2) estimar la consistencia interna de los factores; 3) describir la distribución de los factores; 4) analizar las diferencias de medias de las estrategias de afrontamiento entre hombres y mujeres. El Cuestionario de Afrontamiento al Estrés para Pacientes Oncológicos (CAEPO) de González (2004) fue aplicado a 148 pacientes oncológicos. Se sugiere reducir la escala a 35 ítems. Se encontró una estructura de cuatro factores correlacionados con consistencias internas de adecuadas a altas. La distribución de los factores se ajustó a una curva normal y n…

Proclamation of the Biblical Readings in the Eucharistic Liturgy of the Syriac Churches
2016
In every liturgical family, including the Syriac ones, the proclamation of the Word of God belongs to the essential elements of the celebration. Although in the many communities sharing the same tradition of Antioch, Edessa and Nisibis the practice of the biblical readings within the liturgy looks different there are some common elements. Among them one can list: a great respect towards the Bible (the book seen as a monstrance); the readings take place during the Liturgy of Catechumens; the readings from both the Old and New Testament are divided by the psalmodic chants; the practice of reading the Gospel is strictly reserved for the priest; the presence of the biblical poetry within the wh…
Funcionamiento Neuropsicológico en el Trastorno Bipolar: Estabilizadores del Humor y Benzodiacepinas
2021
Introducción El trastorno bipolar (TB) es considerado por la Organización Mundial de la Salud como uno de los problemas de salud más urgentes a nivel mundial y una de las veinte principales causas de discapacidad. Su principal característica es la alternancia de episodios maniacos y episodios depresivos con periodos de estabilidad clínica. Por otro lado, está bien establecida la presencia de disfunciones neurocognitivas en pacientes con trastorno bipolar, asociadas a factores clínicos, tales como el número de episodios afectivos y hospitalizaciones, la duración de la enfermedad, y pobre ajuste psicosocial a largo plazo. Sin embargo, el curso longitudinal del TB es muy variable, y un subgrup…
The efficacy of two immunostimulants against Flavobacterium columnare infection in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).
2009
Abstract Bacterium Flavobacterium columnare is the causative agent of columnaris disease in many wild and farmed fish species. Immunostimulants are used with success in aquaculture against many pathogens, but the ability to improve innate resistance to columnaris disease has not been studied. Fingerling rainbow trout were treated with two immunostimulants, yeast β-glucan and β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB). Selected innate immune function parameters, the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by whole blood and by isolated head kidney leukocytes, plasma lysozyme activity and complement bacteriolytic activity, were determined to assess the immune status of fish. The fish were then bath…
