The significance of premature luteinization in an oocyte-donation programme
2006
BACKGROUND: Several evidences indicate that premature luteinization (PL) may affect IVF outcome. The primary end-point of the present study was to verify the effect of PL on the pregnancy rate (PR) of our oocytedonation programme. METHODS: PL was defined as serum progesterone ³1.2 ng/ml on the day of HCG. We analysed retrospectively 240 oocyte-donation cycles in which 120 women donated twice, with PL in the first donation cycle and no PL in the following one, acting as its own control. Recipients (n = 240) were divided in two groups according to the presence of PL (n = 120) or not (n = 120). Both groups were compared regarding donor cycle parameters and recipient cycle outcome. RESULTS: The…
Elevated plasma level of visfatin/pre-b cell colony-enhancing factor in male oral squamous cell carcinoma patients
2012
Objectives: Visfatin, also known as nicotiamide phosphoribosyltransferase or pre-B cell colony enhancing factor, is a pro-inflammatory cytokine whose serum level is increased in various cancers. In this study, we investigated whether plasma visfatin levels were altered in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The relation ship between plasma visfatin levels and the pretreatment hematologic profile was also explored. Study Design: Plasma visfatin concentrations were measured through ELISA in OSCC patients and control sub- D esign: Plasma visfatin concentrations were measured through ELISA in OSCC patients and control sub- esign: Plasma visfatin concentrations were measured throu…
Prediction of Normal Organ Absorbed Doses for [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 Using [44Sc]Sc-PSMA-617 Pharmacokinetics in Patients With Metastatic Castration Resi…
2018
In vivo pharmacokinetic analysis of [Sc]Sc-PSMA-617 was used to determine the normal organ-absorbed doses that may result from therapeutic activity of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 and to predict the maximum permissible activity of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate carcinoma. Methods Pharmacokinetics of [Sc]Sc-PSMA-617 was evaluated in 5 patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate carcinoma using dynamic PET/CT, followed by 3 static PET/CT acquisitions and blood sample collection over 19.5 hours, as well as urine sample collection at 2 time points. Total activity measured in source organs by PET imaging, as well as counts per milliliter measured in bloo…
Early serum creatinine changes and outcomes in patients admitted for acute heart failure: the cardio-renal syndrome revisited.
2017
Background: The changes in renal function that occurred in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) are prevalent, and have multifactorial etiology and dissimilar prognosis. To what extent the prognostic role of such changes may vary according to the presence of renal insufficiency at admission is not clear. Accordingly, we sought to determine whether early creatinine changes (Cr) (admission to 48-72 hours) had an effect on 1-year mortality relative to the presence of renal insufficiency at admission. Methods: We included 705 consecutive patients admitted with the diagnosis of ADHF. Admission renal insufficiency was defined as serum creatinine 1.4mg/dl (A-RIcr) or estimated gl…
La libertà tra determinismo naturale e determinismo teologico: Il De servo arbitrio di Lutero
2018
L'articolo analizza il rapporto tra determinismo naturale e storico da un lato e determinismo teologico dall'altro, così come Lutero lo affronta nel De servo arbitrio, a partire dalla sua concreta esperienza di fede. L'articolo cerca di mostrare come l'idea di determinismo di Lutero sia escludente l’opposta idea d’indeterminazione, ragion per cui egli rifiuta la concezione della libertà come libertas indifferentiae, ma non la contingenza degli eventi e quindi neppure l'autodeterminazione dell'uomo. Nell'articolo si mostra come la posizione di Lutero al riguardo sia stata accolta da Leibniz e da Hegel. The article analyzes the relationship between natural and historical determinism on the on…
Le metamorfosi del corale "Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her" fra Lutero, Bach e Stravinsky
2020
Il corale matalizio "Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her" (Dall'alto dei cieli io giungo) è stato realizzato da Martin Lutero sulla base della melodia popolare "Ich komm aus fremden Landen her" e fu pubblicato per la prima volta a Wittenberg nel 1535. Assai diffuso in tutta l'area culturale tedesca, questo brano è stato ripreso, tra gli altri, anche da J.S. Bach, sia nel "Weinachts-Oratorium" BWV 248 che nelle "Canonische Veraenderungen" per organo BWV 796 e 796a. Il saggio ricostruisce il contesto in cui vide la luce la versione originale del canto natalizio e si sofferma sull'interesse di Bach per la numerologia e sulle "citazioni nascoste" in molte sue opere, incluse le "Veraenderungen" sul …

Il tema della laicità in Lutero negli anni 1521-1522
Autorytet Biblii w tradycji ewangelickiej
2011
The Bible in protestant tradition inherits exceptional meaning. There is nothing else along with the Bible that would present of equal or similar value for evangelical theology. Highest merits for elaborating such great respect to the Holy Scripture shall be awarded to the Father of Reformation – Martin Luther. In accordance with the sola scriptura reformative rule formed by him, the only normative value in the life and faith of Evangelical Churches is presented by the Bible. Such position is adopted by all post-Reformation Churches continuously. The rejection of Magisterium Ecclesiae may however lead to the risk of polysemantic and subjective interpretation of biblical chapters by the wors…
Historyczny rozwój katolickiego obrazu Marcina Lutra
2018
Katolicki obraz Marcina Lutra na przestrzeni wieków ewoluował od zdecydowanie negatywnego w czasie reformacji i w wiekach następnych, poprzez próby teologicznie i historycznie pogłębionych analiz inspirowanych ruchem ekumenicznym, aż po współczesną akceptację wielu jego teologicznych postulatów. Współczesne kierunki rzymskokatolickiego myślenia o Lutrze dobrze streszczają historycznie wyważone i dogmatycznie pogłębione opinie ostatnich papieży: Jana Pawła II, Benedykta XVI i Franciszka. Idąc za tekstami uzgodnień Komisji luterańsko-katolickiej na forum światowym, ekumenicznie otwarci papieże potrafią dostrzec w Marcinie Lutrze człowieka głęboko religijnego, świadka Ewangelii, którego myśl t…
Musica e architettura. Le opere di Igor Stravinsky per la basilica di San Marco a Venezia
2019
Il 13 settembre 1956, Stravinsky diresse nella basilica di San Marco a Venezia la prima esecuzione del "Canticum Sacrum" (1955), insieme con le "Variazioni-corali sulla canto natalizio Vom Himmel hoch…" (1955-56). Il "Canticum" era stato realizzato su commissione del Festival delle Biennale e costituisce un esempio dell'approccio del compositore alla tecnica dodecafonica. Le "Variazioni-corali" presentano quasi il medesimo organico del "Canticum" e sono invece da considerarsi come una sorta di ripensamento creativo delle "Variazioni canoniche" BWV 796-796a di Johann Sebastian Bach. September 13th 1956, Stravinsky conducted at the basilica of St. Mark in Venice the first performance of the "…
