Fatal cerebellar haemorrhage due to phenprocoumon poisoning.

1996

A 32-year-old patient died of a cerebellar haemorrhage and the blood coagulation analysis before death suggested defective synthesis of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors due to vitamin K deficiency. The post-mortem toxicological examination of different tissues revealed phenprocoumon poisoning as the cause of death. The differential diagnosis of vitamin K deficiency and the toxicology of hydroxycoumarins are discussed.

Age-dependent differences in the effect of phenprocoumon on the vitamin K1-epoxide cycle in rats

1980

Abstract The anticoagulant activity and the pharmacokinetics of phenprocoumon as well as the effect of phenprocoumon on the vitamin K1-epoxide cycle in younger (12 weeks) and older (36 weeks) male inbred Lewis rats has been examined in a study of the mechanism responsible for the increase in the responsiveness to oral anticoagulant drugs (OAD's) with increasing age. After a single i.v.-dose of phenprocoumon (0†355 mg kg−1 the anticoagulant effect obtained was greater in older than in younger rats. There were no differences between younger and older rats in the rate of elimination, volume of distribution and in the free fraction and free concentration values of phenprocoumon in plasma and li…

Microbial Biofilms Along a Geochemical Gradient at the Shallow-Water Hydrothermal System of Vulcano Island, Mediterranean Sea

2022

Shallow water hydrothermal vents represent highly dynamic environments where strong geochemical gradients can shape microbial communities. Recently, these systems are being widely used for investigating the effects of ocean acidification on biota as vent emissions can release high CO2 concentrations causing local pH reduction. However, other gas species, as well as trace elements and metals, are often released in association with CO2 and can potentially act as confounding factors. In this study, we evaluated the composition, diversity and inferred functional profiles of microbial biofilms in Levante Bay (Vulcano Island, Italy, Mediterranean Sea), a well-studied shallow-water hydrothermal ve…

La cultura ci salverà? Processi di touristification a base culturale nel centro storico di Palermo

2023

Negli ultimi tre decenni la cultura ha avuto un ruolo chiave nella costruzione delle politiche urbane, divenendo uno strumento decisivo nella definizione delle strategie di sviluppo economico e nell’accesso alla competizione globale che caratterizzano l’attuale regime di neoliberismo urbano (Miles e Paddison 2005). Anche nel sud Europa la cosiddetta rigenerazione a base culturale ha rappresentato e continua ancora oggi a rappresentare una vera e propria ortodossia urbana, che trova nel turismo tanto una ragione di esistenza quanto un campo di attuazione. In particolare, negli ultimi anni i centri storici di molte città sudeuropee sono stati oggetto di trasformazioni profonde in cui pratiche…

Within this framework Palermo and its historic center are no exception. The epicenter of these processes is represented here by the Kalsa district which since the early 2000s has been placed at the center of a precise strategy of culturally-based renewal called to drive the city's tourist renaissance (Vinci 2008). The culmination of this path came in 2018 when Palermo was named the Italian capital of culture and chosen as the venue for Manifesta one of the most prestigious traveling biennales of contemporary art. However the exponential increase in tourist arrivals in the last three years came to a halt with the outbreak of the pandemic which showed with unprecedented evidence the contradictions of the development strategies pursued in the historic center and the marks they leave on the territories. While this sudden interruption seems to offer an opportunity to radically rethink urban and cultural policies and find new curbs to the conditions of overtourism in which the historic centers of South European cities and beyond find themselves it could also prove to be an accelerator of the dynamics of commodification of these spaces representing the revival of tourism an easy escape route in times of crisis. The objective of this contribution is to critically explore the urban and social transformations that have crossed the Kalsa district of Palermo from the 2000s to the present using qualitative and quantitative techniques (analysis of statistical data in-depth interviews critical discourse analysis ...) with particular reference to the role that culture has played in these processes. While it is impossible to prefigure post-pandemic scenarios we will examine documents and discourses that trace possible development directions for South European cities and their historic centers.Settore ICAR/21 - UrbanisticaSettore M-GGR/01 - Geografia

Atmospheric radiative effects of an in-situ measured Saharan dust plume and the role of large particles

2007

This work will present aerosol size distributions measured in a Saharan dust plume between 0.9 and 12 km altitude during the ACE-2 campaign 1997. The distributions contain a significant fraction of large particles of diameters from 4 to 30 μm. Radiative transfer calculations have been performed using these data as input. Shortwave, longwave as well as total atmospheric radiative effects (AREs) of the dust plume are investigated over ocean and desert within the scope of sensitivity studies considering varied input parameters like solar zenith angle, scaled total dust optical depth, tropospheric standard aerosol profiles and particle complex refractive index. The results indicate that the lar…

Post-operative computed tomography imaging evaluation of ascending aorta surgery

2021

Ascending thoracic aorta disease is often a life-threatening condition. Aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection are the most frequent ascending aorta diseases requiring surgical intervention. Surgical repair techniques of the ascending aorta are various; they include reconstruction of the ascending aorta by using a graft with or without a prosthetic valve, reconstruction with a composite artificial graft or using a biological graft, and reconstruction of the ascending aorta with a composite graft preserving the native valve and arch repair. The radiologist plays a key role in the identification of post-operative complications; differentiation from normal postoperative findings is fundamental.…

IT Service CMM soveltaminen pienen ja keskisuuren yrityksen IT-prosessien kehittämisessä

2009

 Laakkonen, Ville Oskari Tietojärjestelmätieteen kandidaatin tutkielma Jyväskylä: Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2009. Pienissä ja keskisuurissa yrityksissä suunnittelemattomasti kehittyneet toimintamallit eivät usein enää riitä yrityksen koon kasvaessa. Tässä tutkielmassa selvitettiin kirjallisuuden perusteella kuinka IT Service Capability Maturity model soveltuu PK-yrityksen IT-prosessien kehittämiseen. Tällä hetkellä ei ole olemassa selkeää vastausta siihen, missä kasvuvaiheessa yrityksen kannattaa aloittaa prosessin kehittäminen. IT-prosessien kehittäminen vaatii yritykseltä erityisesti pitkäjänteisyyttä ja sitoutumista ennalta määritettyihin tavoitteisiin. Tutkielmassa havaittiin, että pienet j…
