Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans: clinical, pathological, and genetic (COL1A1-PDGFB ) study with therapeutic implications.
2009
Aims: To analyse the presence of collagen type I alpha 1–platelet-derived growth factor beta (COL1A1–PDGFB) transcripts in 20 cases of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) and to assess the relationship between COL1A1 breakpoints and clinical and histopathological variables. Methods and results: Multiplex reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction was carried out using frozen tissue. Our series contained 14 men and six women. Histologically, most cases were of conventional type (n = 9), followed by fibrosarcoma (n = 4), Bednar tumour (n = 2), sclerosing (n = 2), myoid (n = 1) and atrophic (n = 1) DFSP, and giant cell fibroblastoma (n = 1). Immunohistochemistry revealed CD34 express…

Ranking of occupational health and safety risks by a multi-criteria perspective: Inclusion of human factors and application of VIKOR
2021
Nowadays, the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is more and more recognized as a crucial process to be properly managed and continuously improved by every organization. Primarily addressed to prevent workers’ injuries and diseases, it positively impacts on productivity, competitiveness and reputation as well as it con-tributes to cost savings in general. OHS management is grounded upon the risk assessment results, on the basis of which defining corrective measures to be taken to reduce risks to acceptable values. In this regard, the paper proposes a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) based methodology addressed to the occupational risks prioritization. In order to overcome the shortco…
On Some Statistical Properties of the Spatio-Temporal Product Density
2021
We present an extension of the non-parametric edge-corrected Ohser-type kernel estimator for the spatio-temporal product density function. We derive the mean and variance of the estimator and give a closed-form approximation for a spatio-temporal Poisson point process. Asymptotic properties of this second-order characteristic are derived, using an approach based on martingale theory. Taking advantage of the convergence to normality, confidence surfaces under the homogeneous Poisson process are built. A simulation study is presented to compare our approximation for the variance with Monte Carlo estimated values. Finally, we apply the resulting estimator and its properties to analyse the spat…
PETTERDITE, THE Cr-DOMINANT ANALOGUE OF DUNDASITE, A NEW MINERAL SPECIES FROM DUNDAS, TASMANIA, AUSTRALIA AND CALLENBERG, SAXONY, GERMANY
2000
Petterdite is a newly discovered hydrated lead chromium hydroxyl carbonate, the Cr 3+ -dominant analogue of dundasite, with a formula PbCr 2 (CO 3 ) 2 (OH) 4 ·H 2 O. The type locality is the Red Lead mine, on the Zeehan–Dundas mining field in northwestern Tasmania, Australia. The mineral also occurs in small amounts at the Callenberg nickel deposit, Saxony, Germany. Petterdite forms thin crusts made up of tiny platy crystals up to about 15 μm across, associated with crocoite and anglesite at the type locality, and with crocoite, cerussite, bindheimite, pyromorphite, and relict galena at Callenberg. The petterdite crusts are pale greyish to pinkish violet and non-fluorescent; they have an ea…
Primāra osteoartrīta dinamikas izvērtēšana simetriskās lielajās locītavās pēc vienas locītavas endoprotezēšanas. Daļa no pētījuma - Kaula smadzeņu mo…

Osteoartrīts ir biežākā no kaulu epifīžu, skrimšļu un locītavas somiņas kompleksajām saslimšanām. Šo saslimšanu uzskatīja par normālu vecuma pārmaiņu locītavās, līdz t šīs patoloģijas izpētei pievērsās un ,pirmo reizi 1715. gadā savā darbā “De arthritide symptomatica”, aprakstīja kāds britu terapeits William Musgrave. Mūsdienās šīs slimības patoģenēzei ir zināmi noteikti predisponējošie faktori un ir izveidota OA klasifikācija. Visbiežāk sastopamā OA forma ir primārs osteoartrīts, tā izraisītāji nav zināmi vēl šodien. Tiek pētīta ģenētiska etiopatoģenēze, gēnu mutācijas un analizēta pārmantojamība, tomēr konkrēts etioloģiskais faktors nav atrasts. Šī iemesla dēļ primārais osteoartrīts ir ma…
Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel
1799
Ms. 930a, Nr. 8, Bl. 22r-23v Böttiger, Karl August. Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel, Weimar, d[en] 13. November 1797 Autora rokraksts / Autograph, vācu, angļu un latīņu val. / Deutsch, Englisch und Latein [4] lpp. / S. Attēlu numuri / Bildnummern: 930a-008-1 – 930a-008-4 Der Verfasser nennt in diesem inhaltsreichen Brief zahlreiche Namen und hält nicht nur die Verbindung mit Merkel, die aus dessen erstem Aufenthalt in Weimar resultierte, aufrecht, sondern gibt ihm weitere Hinweise und Empfehlung für seinen weiteren Aufenthalt in Dänemark. So rät er zur Übersetzung dreier Romane aus dem Englischen, darunter Jane Wests „A gossip's story“ (London 1796). Ferner bittet der Verfasser Merkel um Gefälli…
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans: a comprehensive review and update on diagnosis and management
2013
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare superficial tumor characterized by high rates of local recurrence and low risk of metastasis. DFSP occurs most commonly on the trunk and proximal extremities, affects all races, and often develops between the second and fifth decade of life. The tumor grows slowly, typically over years. Histologically, several variants of DFSP have been described and should be well characterized to avoid misdiagnosis with other tumors. These include pigmented (Bednar tumor), myxoid, myoid, granular cell, sclerotic, atrophic DFSP, giant cell fibroblastoma, and DFSP with fibrosarcomatous areas. Of all these variants, only the DFSP with fibrosarcomatous areas is…

Appearance and use of Roman roofing materials in the region of the Aedui and Lingones
2014
Römische Konstruktionstechniken und Baustoffe können als Anzeichen für Romanisierung gewertet werden. Sie legenZeugnis von den veränderten Verhaltensweisen ab, wie die Haeduer und die Lingonen mit den natürlichen Ressourcenumgingen, um diese Materialien zu produzieren. Es können deutliche Unterschiede zwischen diesen beiden gallischenStämmen hinsichtlich des Einsatzes von Ziegel- und Steindächern beobachtet werden. Die Haeduer verwenden meistensZiegel für ihre Dächer, selbst wenn die lokal verfügbaren natürlichen Ressourcen eine Produktion dieses Baustoffesnicht erlauben. Im Gegensatz dazu kommen bei den Lingonen Ziegel nur dann zum Einsatz, wenn die entsprechendenRessourcen vorhanden …
