Type 1 diabetes in an adolescent with social problems and mental disorders – case report
2021
W cukrzycy typu 1 przerwanie leczenia (insulinoterapii) prowadzi do cukrzycowej kwasicy ketonowej (DKA), będącej stanem bezpośredniego zagrożenia życia. Celem przedstawionego opisu przypadku jest zwrócenie uwagi na sytuację pacjentów z cukrzycą typu 1 i istotnymi problemami socjalnymi/psychicznymi, którzy ze względu na brak odpowiednich uregulowań prawnych „wypadają z systemu”, który mógłby zapewnić im odpowiednią opiekę warunkującą prawidłowe leczenie. Zaburzenia psychiczne i/lub problemy socjalne utrudniają lub uniemożliwiają prowadzenie samokontroli i leczenia. Pacjenci tacy stanowią istotne wyzwanie dla zespołu diabetologicznego i wymagają zindywidualizowanego postępowania ze strony sys…
Approach to equilibrium of a quarkonium in a quark-gluon plasma
2018
We derive equations of motion for the reduced density matrix of a heavy quarkonium in contact with a quark-gluon plasma in thermal equilibrium. These equations allow in particular a proper treatment of the regime when the temperature of the plasma is comparable to the binding energy of the quarkonium. These equations are used to study how the quarkonium approaches equilibrium with the plasma, and we discuss the corresponding entropy increase, or free energy decrease, depending on the temperature regime. The effect of collisions can be accounted for by the generalization of the imaginary potential introduced in previous studies, and from which collision rates are derived. An important outcom…
T1HG Bladder Tumours: So Many Papers, Do We Need Them? Yes, We Do!
2009
“How many roads a man must walk on….” and how many papers we must read and write… to put down the final word on the appropriate management of high risk NMI-BC. Although it is more than 20 years that we take notice of promises on biological markers predictive of the behaviour of NMI-BC, till today we can only base our decisions on clinical and pathological data. Consequently, we need exchange of experiences and reports on the outcome of these patients. The aim of the treatment of T1 bladder tumours is to minimize mortality while assuring reduced morbidity and good quality of life. A conservative approach is, obviously, not applicable to all T1HG tumours. We need to identify unequivocal selec…
A rare case of oral multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis
2017
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder characterized by high proliferation of Langerhans dendritic cells. LCH is a solitary or multifocal disease that primarily involves bone tissue and often affects children and young men. A 29 years-old Caucasian man was referred to the Oral Surgery Unit of George Eastman Hospital - Umberto I teaching hospital, with third degree mobility of teeth belonging to second, third and fourth quadrant. Panoramic radiograph showed multiple radiolucent areas with well demarcated borders on the right and left site of the mandible and on the left site of the maxilla. Extractions of compromised teeth and biopsy of the osteolytic tissue were performed. T…
Influence of the Screw Positioning on the Stability of Locking Plate for Proximal Tibial Fractures: A Numerical Approach
2020
Tibial fractures are common injuries in people. The proper treatment of these fractures is important in order to recover complete mobility. The aim of this work was to investigate if screw positioning in plates for proximal tibial fractures can affect the stability of the system, and if it can consequently influence the patient healing time. In fact, a more stable construct could allow the reduction of the non-weight-bearing period and consequently speed up the healing process. For that purpose, virtual models of fractured bone/plate assemblies were created, and numerical simulations were performed to evaluate the reaction forces and the maximum value of the contact pressure at the screw/bo…
