High-energy devices in different surgical settings: lessons learnt from a full health technology assessment report developed by SICE (Società Italian…
2022
Background The present paper aims at evaluating the potential benefits of high-energy devices (HEDs) in the Italian surgical practice, defining the comparative efficacy and safety profiles, as well as the potential economic and organizational advantages for hospitals and patients, with respect to standard monopolar or bipolar devices. Methods A Health Technology Assessment was conducted in 2021 assuming the hospital perspective, comparing HEDs and standard monopolar/bipolar devices, within eleven surgical settings: appendectomy, hepatic resections, colorectal resections, cholecystectomy, splenectomy, hemorrhoidectomy, thyroidectomy, esophago-gastrectomy, breast surgery, adrenalectomy, and p…

Byers Peninsula: A reference site for coastal, terrestrial and limnetic ecosystem studies in maritime Antarctica
2009
Abstract This article describes the development of an international and multidisciplinary project funded by the Spanish Polar Programme on Byers Peninsula (Livingston Island, South Shetlands). The project adopted Byers Peninsula as an international reference site for coastal and terrestrial (including inland waters) research within the framework of the International Polar Year initiative. Over 30 scientists from 12 countries and 26 institutions participated in the field work, and many others participated in the processing of the samples. The main themes investigated were: Holocene changes in climate, using both lacustrine sediment cores and palaeo-nests of penguins; limnology of the lakes, …
Prospective Validation of Facial Nerve Monitoring to Prevent Nerve Damage During Robotic Drilling
2019
Facial nerve damage has a detrimental effect on a patient's life, therefore safety mechanisms to ensure its preservation are essential during lateral skull base surgery. During robotic cochlear implantation a trajectory passing the facial nerve at <0.5 mm is needed. Recently a stimulation probe and nerve monitoring approach were developed and introduced clinically, however for patient safety no trajectory was drilled closer than 0.4 mm. Here we assess the performance of the nerve monitoring system at closer distances. In a sheep model eight trajectories were drilled to test the setup followed by 12 trajectories during which the ENT surgeon relied solely on the nerve monitoring system and…
Heinähattu ja Vilttitossu -sarjan henkilönnimet
2010
Tutkimuksen kohteena ovat Sinikka ja Tiina Nopolan kirjoittamassa Heinähattu ja Vilttitossu -kirjasarjassa esiintyvät henkilönnimet ja niihin rinnastuvat eläinten, kuvitteellisten hahmojen ja lelujen nimet. Tutkimuksessa käsitellään nimien keskeisyyttä, rakennetta, funktioita, käyttöä ja henkilöiden nimeämistä. Aineisto koostuu yhteensä 153 nimestä. Aineiston nimet voi jakaa keskeisyyden mukaan neljään pääryhmään: päähahmojen nimiin, avustavien hahmojen nimiin, satelliittihahmojen nimiin ja kulissihahmojen nimiin. Keskeisiä nimiä eli päähahmojen ja avustavien hahmojen nimiä on huomattavasti vähemmän kuin perifeerisiä nimiä eli satellitti- ja kulissihahmojen nimiä. Päähahmot esiintyvät tekst…
