Melting phlogopite-rich MARID: Lamproites and the role of alkalis in olivine-liquid Ni-partitioning
2018
Abstract In this study, we show how veined lithospheric mantle is involved in the genesis of ultrapotassic magmatism in cratonic settings. We conducted high pressure experiments to simulate vein + wall rock melting within the Earth's lithospheric mantle by reacting assemblages of harzburgite and phlogopite-rich hydrous mantle xenoliths. These comprised a mica-, amphibole-, rutile-, ilmenite-, diopside (MARID) assemblage at 3–5 GPa and 1325–1450 °C. Melting of the MARID assemblages results in infiltration of melt through the harzburgite, leading to its chemical alteration. At 3 and 4 GPa, melts are high in K2O (> 9 wt%) with K2O/Na2O > > 2 comparable to anorogenic lamproites. Higher pressure…
In-vivo-Konfokalmikroskopie in der Diagnose des okulären Schleimhautpemphigoids
2015
Hintergrund: Fur die Prognose des okularen Schleimhautpemphigoids (mucous membrane pemphigoid, MMP) ist eine fruhe Diagnosesicherung essenziell. Allerdings wird die Sensitivitat des sog. diagnostischen Goldstandards, der direkten (DIF) bzw. indirekten Immunfluoreszenz (IIF) mit einer Spanne von 30–80 % sehr variabel angegeben. Zusatzlich birgt die dafur notwendige Bindehautbiopsie die Gefahr der Exazerbation. Ziel dieser Studie war es, zu ermitteln, ob die nicht invasive In-vivo-Konfokalmikroskopie zur Erkennung eines okularen Schleimhautpemphigoids beitragen kann. Patienten und Methoden: Die Konjunktiva von 10 Pemphigoidpatienten und 10 Kontrollprobanden wurden mithilfe des o. g. Verfahren…
Optically Active Hyperbranched Polyglycerol as Scaffold for Covalent and Noncovalent Immobilization of Platinum(II) NCN-Pincer Complexes. Catalytic A…
2004
New optically active hyperbranched polymers have been used as microenvironments as well as scaffolds for noncovalent and covalent immobilization of pincer platinum(II) complexes, respectively. The catalytic activity/selectivity of the incorporated platinum(II) complexes in these polymeric chiral supports was investigated. Chiral amphiphilic hyperbranched polyglycerols with core−shell “nanocapsules” structure, namely (−)-P(G40C160.5) (1) and (+)-P(G73C160.5) (2), have been prepared in two straightforward steps by ring-opening multibranching polymerization (ROMBP) of either (−)- or (+)-glycidol, resulting in (−)-PG40 (Mn = 3000, Mw/Mn = 1.3) or (+)-PG73 (Mn = 5500, Mw/Mn = 1.6), respectively.…
Boccaccio, «Ninfale fiesolano» 309, 5-8: per la storia di un tópos fra tradizione classica e suggestioni medievali
2022
Questa nota, alla luce della lettura e dell’interpretazione di un passo del «Ninfale fiesolano» del Boccaccio (309, 5-8), ripercorre la fortuna del motivo della “reciprocità” amorosa e, in particolare, dell’intimo rapporto che fa sì che “due” giovani innamorati, legati da affinità di costumi, età, bellezza, siano come “una” sola persona. Un motivo molto antico, questo, che affonda le sue radici nella tradizione biblica e nella letteratura classica, e che conoscerà ampia fortuna nel Medioevo latino e volgare. Fra i testi che vengono proposti e analizzati si segnalano, soprattutto, le «Metamorfosi» di Ovidio, l’«Ero e Leandro» di Museo, il «Narcissus», il «Pamphilus», l’«Alda» di Guglielmo di…
P(HPMA)-block-P(LA) copolymers in paclitaxel formulations: Polylactide stereochemistry controls micellization, cellular uptake kinetics, intracellula…
2012
In order to explore the influence of polymer microstructure and stereochemistry in biological settings, the synthesis, micellization, cellular fate and the use in paclitaxel formulations of poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl)-methacrylamide)-block-poly(L-lactide) (P(HPMA)-block-P(LLA)) and poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl)-methacrylamide)-block-poly(DL-lactide) block copolymers (P(HPMA)-block-P(DLLA)) were studied. To this end, P(HPMA)-block-P(lactide) block copolymers and their fluorescently labeled analogues were synthesized. The polymers exhibited molecular weights M-n around 20,000 g/mol with dispersities (D=M-w/M-n) below 1.3. In addition, the solution conformation of this new type of partially degradable…
La voce, il gesto, la scena. Elementi teatrali nelle commedie latine del XII e XIII secolo
2019
In questo volume, dopo aver delineato un panorama organico delle cosiddette commedie latine elegiache del XII e XIII secolo, viene discussa l'antica questione della reale possibilità di rappresentare questi testi, cercando di mostrare - anche sulla base di alcune glosse di Arnolfo di Orléans e un'intera serie di spie e indizi interni dei testi stessi - come è ipotizzabile una rappresentazione teatrale, almeno per alcune di queste commedie. Gli argomenti qui trattati riguardano l'alternanza, nelle composizioni comico-elegiache, tra parti narrative e sezioni monologiche e / o dialogiche; le didascalie "interne"; possibili relazioni con la tradizione giullaresca; la convivenza, all'interno di …
In vivo optical coherence tomography imaging in a case of mucous membrane pemphigoid and a negative Nikolsky's sign.
2017
There is currently a growing interest in new diagnostic tools of the oral cavity and mucosa which are non-invasive, repeatable and reliable. A diagnosis of a suspected, autoimmune pathology was made regarding a 57-year-old patient with desquamative gingivitis. However, a negative Nikolsky's sign did not seem to indicate a diagnosis of mucous membrane pemphigoid neither was there any indication as to the optimum location for an incisional biopsy. As an imaging method, the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) has enabled the obtaining of tomographic (cross-sectional) scans of tissue. Such images are acquired prior to and after verifying Nikolsky's sign, thereby enabling the clinician to …
Antiamphiphysin-positive stiff-person syndrome associated with small cell lung cancer
2006
The paraneoplastic amphiphysin(+) stiff-person syndrome (SPS) has so far only been described in women with breast adenocarcinoma. Here, we describe the rare case of a female patient with antiamphiphysin(+) SPS due to small cell cancer of the lung.
Treatment of pemphigus vulgaris with mycophenolate mofetil
1997
different pattern of diffusion changes in a 51-year-old woman with chronic epilepsy and recurrent episodes of focal status epilepticus, for whom no aetiology could be established. Status consisted of clonic jerking of the right leg, which continued for 22 days and was followed by transient paresis. DWI during status showed decreased diffusion in the motor cortex of the right leg (relative decrease in ADC of 27%, see figure). Surprisingly, the diffusion was increased in the subcortical white matter (relative increase in ADC of 31%). On the T2-weighted image (not shown), both cortex and subcortical white matter of the corresponding region returned a high signal similar to previously reported …
