Fattori predittivi di non compliance nel trapianto renale
2004
Currently many authors report a kidney graft survival of 90-95% at one years post-transplantation. The patients' adherence to the immunosuppressive therapy is an important condition for maintaining graft functioning. A review of the medical literature shows that graft survival is significantly worse in non-compliance patients. As a matter of fact, 267 non compliance patients lost their graft of 7206 renal graft recipients. There are usually three different non-compliance profiles in transplantation : 1) 'Accidental non compliers' (47%) identifies those patients who sometimes forget to take the therapy. 2) 'Invulnerables' (28%) are those patients who believe that they do not need to take the…
Chronic pain treatment through virtual reality
2017
Chronic pain is a notable issue of public healthcare, causing enormous direct and indirect costs, and a reduction of the quality of life in the affected patients. In this study, we have used Virtual Reality (VR) as a method to reduce stress, anxiety and pain in patients affected by chronic pain. We examined two cohorts of patients: an experimental group and a control group. The patients in the experimental group were administered eight VR sessions, each of those lasted thirty minutes, while the control group had a standard therapy. The results are encouraging: they demonstrate the efficacy of VR treatment and the safety of the method.

Digital contents as a tool to address research reproducibility crisis in psychology: A case study on sexual attraction under conditions of high arous…
2020
In the field of behavioral sciences, a crisis of the replicability of data took place. Among the reasons of the crisis, there is the difficulty of replicating some classical experimental settings and the lack of reproduced studies. Nowadays, digital contents might provide valuable opportunities to re-create specific environmental situations and manipulations in a safe and cost-saving way. The present study is a preliminary attempt to replicate the relationship between arousal manipulation and sexual attraction as it was assessed in the classical study by Dutton and Aron in 1974. Here, 30 male subjects will be randomly assigned to high or low arousal condition (induced with digital contents)…

Education on Sexual Diversity through Cinema
2014
Abstract Our proposal raises the urgency to include the defense of sexual diversity in the curriculum of Art Education.

A topical issue such as the promotion of respect for sexual diversity has on films perfect ally. Suggest ideas about educational processes through a series of examples. From cinema and visual art can introduce reflecti…

This study has explored the valence of sibship that may empower the self-esteem of children with asthma at the interpersonal, environmental control competence, emotionality management, and body-image levels.

The children with asthma have exhibited higher levels of self-esteem in comparison with the sibling-free children. The results of the study, at the clinical significance level, hig…

Simone Corleo fa parte della serie di autori che, nel corso del secolo XIX, ha contribuito all’inserimento della fi losofia prodotta nell’Ateneo di Palermo nel vasto e articolato panorama della cultura italiana ed europea.
