Inflammatory response elements, glycan, and proteome profiles as salivary biomarkers for the early diagnosis of OSCC
2021
El cáncer oral, sobre todo el, carcinoma oral de células escamosas (COCE), es la neoplasia maligna más común en la cavidad oral que se caracteriza por un mal pronóstico y una baja tasa de supervivencia, cuando se diagnostica en estadios avanzados. Puede ser tratado de forma efectiva si se detecta en estadios iniciales, mejorando el pronóstico. Por tanto, tras la prevención, el diagnóstico precoz se ha convertido en el principal objetivo en el manejo del cáncer oral, dado su impacto positivo en la supervivencia y calidad de vida de estos pacientes. A menudo, los escasos síntomas iniciales pasan desapercibidos y la enfermedad se descubre en fases avanzadas, por lo que se requiere mejorar el d…
Drugie stanowisko prześwietlika platanowego Corythucha ciliata (Say, 1832) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Tingidae) na Górnym Śląsku
2022
The sycamore lace bug Corythucha ciliata (Say, 1832) has a North American origin and is one of the most abundant and widespread pests on plane trees (Platanus spp.) across the globe. It has been introduced to Europe, South America, Asia, Australia, and Africa during the last sixty years. In Poland, it has been recorded since 2009 in 28 localities distributed in four of its southern zoogeographical regions. The present paper describes the second record of this species in Upper Silesia.
Evaluation of Surgical Outcomes of Abdominal Radical Hysterectomy and Total Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy for Cervical Cancer: A Retrospective An…
2022
Although a surgical approach is one of the key treatments for stages IA1-IIA2, results of the Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer (LACC) published in 2018 radically changed the field, since minimally invasive surgery was associated with a four-fold higher rate of recurrence and a six-fold higher rate of all-cause death compared to an open approach. We aimed to evaluate surgical outcomes of abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH) and total laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (TLRH) for cervical cancer, including data collected before the LACC trial. In our retrospective analysis, operative time was significantly longer in TLRH compared to ARH (p < 0.0001), although this disadvantage could…
The Effects of Transcutaneous Spinal Direct Current Stimulation on Neuropathic Pain in Multiple Sclerosis: Clinical and Neurophysiological Assessment
2019
Background: Central neuropathic pain represents one of the most common symptoms in multiple sclerosis (MS) and it seriously affects quality of life. Spinal mechanisms may contribute to the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain in MS. Converging evidence from animal models and neurophysiological and clinical studies in humans suggests a potential effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tc-DCS) on neuropathic pain. Spinal application of DCS, i.e., transcutaneous spinal DCS (ts-DCS), may modulate nociception through inhibition of spinal reflexes. Therefore, ts-DCS could represents an effective, safe and well-tolerated treatment for neuropathic pain in MS, a largely unexplored topic. This…
Advances in ventilatory treatment for OSAS
2021
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the most widely used treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and was established four decades ago. An alternative option is to use bilevel ventilation, in order to improve compliance to treatment especially in patients who need a high therapeutic pressure to prevent nocturnal respiratory events. Automatic CPAP or bilevel ventilation are also established among OSA therapeutic choices, and are generally indicated in cases of highly variable therapeutic pressure. The major advances in the field regard OSAS in the context of uncomplicated obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS), in which either CPAP or bilevel ventilation yield comparable result…

Pluskwiaki różnoskrzydłe (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) zimujące pod korą platanów klonolistnych Platanus x acerifolia w Polsce
2020
The paper presents the results of three-year studies conducted at 75 locations in Poland testing the use of the London planes for overwintering of true-bugs. Insects were sampled from the bark of trunks. Altogether 25 species of Heteroptera was recorded, including three invasive species that can considerable affect plane trees: Arocatus longiceps, Corythucha ciliata and Oxycarenus lavaterae.

First record of Sphaeralcea bonariensis (Cav.) Griseb. (Malvaceae) as a casual alien species in the Mediterranean area
2022
Sphaeralcea bonariensis (Cav.) Griseb. is here reported for the first time as alien species in Italy and in the Mediterranean area. It is a perennial shrub native to Southern America, where it is often considered a ruderal species frequent in cultivated areas. It was found in a population of a few individuals within Opuntia ficus-indica groves of Rocca Palumba territory (Western Sicily). Actually, due to short-term observational period and the low number of plants, Sphaeralcea bonariensis should be considered as a casual species in Italy. The ecological characteristics of the growing stand and the consistency of the population, as well as the possible causes of its introduction, are briefly…
Pompejin pigmentit : materiaalitutkimuksellinen näkökulma antiikin taiteeseen
2014
Tämän pro gradu-tutkielman tarkoituksena on perehdyttää lukija konservoinnin materiaalitutkimusten kautta muinaisen Pompejin pigmentteihin ja niiden nykyaikaisiin tutkimusmenetelmiin. Tutkielman aineisto koostuu 2000-luvulla luonnontieteellisten alojen soveltavissa julkaisusarjoissa esitellyistä pigmenttitutkimuksista ja niiden tuloksista. Tutkielman aineistona olevien tutkimusjulkaisujen kohteina ovat sekä Pompejin kaivausalueella in situ että Napolin Arkeologiseen Kansallismuseoon siirrettyjen maalausten pigmentit ja niiden kokemat muutokset. Osa näyteaineistosta muodostuu Pompejin alueelta nykyaikaisissa tutkimuskaivauksissa esiinkaiveetuista seinämaalausfragmenteista ja jo aiemmissa kai…
