TREATMENT OF VISCERAL LEISHMANIASIS IN CHILDREN USING LIPOSOMAL AMPHOTHERICIN B
1997
We used liposomal amphotericin B as first-choice treatment of visceral leishmaniasis in 106 immunocompetent children who acquired the infection in a temperate region of southern Europe (Italy) where Leishmania infantum visceral leishmaniasis is endemic. The aim of the study was to identify the minimum total dose of liposomal amphotericin B needed to cure the infection in children and reduce the period of hospitalization. We conclude that the optimal regimen in immunocompetent children with L. infantum visceral leishmaniasis to be a total dose of 18 mg/kg of liposomal amphotericin B (3 mg/kg per day for 5 days, followed by 3 mg/kg administered as an outpatient regimen on day 10).

Die neuen Abenteurer. Deutscher Residenztourismus in Spanien
2010
Die Reiseliteratur hat sich in den letzten Jahren als eine der relevantesten und bewährtesten Analysepunkte in der Interkulturalitätsforschung herausgestaltet. Betrachtet man den Zeitraum von der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts bis heute, so fällt jedoch auf, dass der Reisebericht im traditionellen Sinne als solches kaum mehr auffindbar ist, und das, was wir heute noch unter Reiseliteratur verstehen können, eher wenig mit den Erfahrungen früherer Reisender zu tun hat. Neben der Erscheinung des Massentourismus (und damit der Vergnügungsreise) und dem schon klassischen bildungsbürgerlichen Motiv der Reise fällt zudem eine weitere Variante auf, die aus der Reise einen längeren oder sogar d…
Apoptotic-like Leishmania exploit the host´s autophagy machinery to reduce T-cell-mediated parasite elimination
2015
Apoptosis is a well-defined cellular process in which a cell dies, characterized by cell shrinkage and DNA fragmentation. In parasites like Leishmania, the process of apoptosis-like cell death has been described. Moreover upon infection, the apoptotic-like population is essential for disease development, in part by silencing host phagocytes. Nevertheless, the exact mechanism of how apoptosis in unicellular organisms may support infectivity remains unclear. Therefore we investigated the fate of apoptotic-like Leishmania parasites in human host macrophages. Our data showed--in contrast to viable parasites--that apoptotic-like parasites enter an LC3(+), autophagy-like compartment. The compartm…

Measuring integration in new countries of immigration
2018
Abstract The purpose of this study is to develop a framework to measure immigrant integration in emerging immigrant destinations. After several decades of intensive research, the definition and assessment of immigrants’ integration remains elusive. Increasingly more attempts have been made to foster scientific progress in the field in the las decades. Yet, immigrant integration in emerging destination countries remains particularly little studied despite several calls for more research on the topic. The developed integration framework (i.e. the Integration Score) is composed of 6 dimensions and 24 indicators of integration (4 indicators for every dimension). To empirically test the validity…
Los estilos de amor y su relación con el bienestar en personas con parejas monógamas y no monógamas
2021
El estudio las relaciones sentimentales en la literatura científica ha centrado su atención en el bienestar debido a su importancia en la salud mental, y por ello ha sido de especial interés su relación con los estilos de amor y la diversidad en la forma de establecer vínculos afectivo-sexuales. El objetivo fue analizar la relación entre los estilos de amor y el bienestar, y las diferencias en función de la orientación afectiva (personas con parejas monógamas y no-monógamas) en estas variables. Participaron 168 personas con edades comprendidas entre los 16 y los 48 años (M=26.24; DT=5.76). Se utilizó La Escala de Afectos Positivos y Negativos (SPANE), la Escala de Satisfacción con la Vida (…
Protection and Victim’s Assistance
2020
Identification of a human trafficking victim is a herculean task, not only due to the complexity of the definition of human trafficking, but also due to the perception of victimhood and vulnerability. The last chapter of this book is written after the increase of the migration flows in Italy in the last years, where IOM declared that 80% of the Nigerian women arriving in Italy were potential human trafficking victims. In an era of a continuous overlap of categories, such as human trafficking victims, non-accompanied minors, refugees, and asylum seekers, legal frameworks can hinder the adequate protection of a human trafficking victim. This chapter profoundly analyses the hybrid category of …
