Els fonaments de la ironia caldersiana: «La Glòria del doctor Larén»
2016
Resum: L’article passa revista a les diferents modalitats de la ironia que són presents a La Glòria del doctor Larén (1936), la primera novel·la de Pere Calders: les reflexions metaficcionals a càrrec dels narradors i dels personatges i altres recursos irònics a l’abast del narrador en l’exercici de les seues funcions, la ironia de l’autor en el prefaci, les ironies de situació, les ironies verbals i les paròdies. L’anàlisi mostra, a través de la diversitat i la recurrència de les ironies que hi apareixen, que La Glòria del doctor Larén posa les bases de la ironia que identificarà la poètica de l’autor i ho fa amb el caràcter, les funcions i l’estil característics de la producció de l’etapa…
The secularization of Marian miracles in Miquel Peres’ La vida de la Verge Maria
2017
En aquest treball analitze el conjunt de miracles marians inclosos per Miquel Peres en La vida de la sacratíssima Verge Maria (València, N. Spindeler, 1494). Aquest conjunt de miracles no només destaca per la funcionalitat concreta que adquireixen en l’estructura de l’obra, sinó perquè, a més, aquests mostren unes característiques determinades que els allunyen de les col·leccions de miracula marians, ja que no presenten alguns dels trets més significatius del gènere. Els miracles de Miquel Peres constitueixen una mostra de la transformació i la secularització del gènere, i ens parlen dels nous usos que se’n deriven i dels nous lectors a qui s’adrecen. In this paper I discuss the whole of Ma…
Contrast ultrasound LI-RADS LR-5 identifies hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis in a multicenter restropective study of 1,006 nodules
2018
Background & Aims The use of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhosis was questioned because of the risk of a false positive diagnosis in cases of cholangiocarcinoma. The American College of Radiology has recently released a scheme (CEUS Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System [LI-RADS®]) to classify lesions at risk of HCC investigated by CEUS. The aim of the present study was to validate this LI-RADS scheme for the diagnosis of HCC. Methods A total of 1,006 nodules from 848 patients with chronic liver disease at risk of HCC were collected in five Italian centers and retrospectively analyzed. Nodules were classified as LR-5, (HCC) …
Oral lichen planus, hepatitis C virus, and HIV: no association in a cohort study from an area of high hepatitis C virus endemicity
2004
Abstract Objectives We sought to assess the age-specific prevalence of oral lichen planus (OLP) in Mediterranean patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) and to evaluate the features of OLP in relation to sex, smoking, HCV genotype, HIV-1 coinfection, and antiviral treatments. Methods In all, 178 anti-HCV-positive adults (60 women and 118 men; age range 20-66 years) recruited from two cohorts (104 HIV-negative patients and 74 patients with HIV coinfection) underwent oral examination. Results Overall prevalence of OLP was 2.8% (5 of 178) (male/female ratio 0.2; odds ratio=0.119; 95% confidence interval=0.013-1.106), only among HIV-negative participants, always in the reticular pattern, …

Fractional-order nonlinear hereditariness of tendons and ligaments of the human knee
2020
In this paper the authors introduce a nonlinear model of fractional-order hereditariness used to capture experimental data obtained on human tendons of the knee. Creep and relaxation data on fibrous tissues have been obtained and fitted with logarithmic relations that correspond to power-laws with nonlinear dependence of the coefficients. The use of a proper nonlinear transform allows one to use Boltzmann superposition in the transformed variables yielding a fractional-order model for the nonlinear material hereditariness. The fundamental relations among the nonlinear creep and relaxation functions have been established, and the results from the equivalence relations have been contrasted wi…

NMR study of magnetic order, metamagnetic transitions, and low-temperature spin freezing in Ca3Co2O6
2011
We report on a (59)Co NMR investigation of the trigonal cobaltate Ca(3)Co(2)O(6) carried out on a single crystal, providing precise determinations of the electric field gradient and chemical shift tensors, and of the internal magnetic fields at the nonmagnetic Co I sites, unavailable from former studies on powders. The magnetic-field-induced ferri-and ferromagnetic phases at intermediate temperature (e.g., 10 K) are identified by distinct internal fields, well accounted for by purely dipolar interactions. The vanishing transferred hyperfine field at the Co I site indicates that the Co(3+) (I) orbitals do not participate in the intrachain superexchange, in disagreement with a previous theore…
The relationship between Polypharmacy and Trajectories of Cognitive Decline in People with Dementia: a large representative cohort study
2019
Polypharmacy, defined through the number of medications prescribed, has been linked to a range of adverse health outcomes in people with dementia. It is however unclear whether a numerical threshold of concurrently prescribed drugs is a suitable predictor for cognitive decline. We aimed to test associations between polypharmacy and both short-term (six months) and long-term (three years) cognitive trajectories in patients with incident dementia. Using data from a large mental health and dementia care database in South London, a cohort of 12,148 patients (mean age = 80.7 years, 61.1% female, mean MMSE = 18.6) clinically diagnosed with dementia was identified. We determined the number of medi…
Inflammatory activation and endothelial dysfunction markers in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation: A cross-sectional study
2020
In recent years a growing body of evidence supported the role of inflammation in the initiation, maintenance and outcome of atrial fibrillation (AF). Nevertheless, despite a large amount of information, whether AF or the underlying structural heart disease (SHD) is the cause of the inflammatory process is still under debate. We, therefore, sought to determine if the inflammatory process reflect an underlying disease or the arrhythmia 'per se'. We evaluated plasma levels of soluble Interleukin 2 Receptor Alpha (sIL-2Rα), TNF-α and IL-18 in 100 consecutive patients with permanent AF, (43 with a SHD and 57 without a SHD) compared to 121 age and sex-matched controls which had normal sinus rhyth…
