Implicación y caracterización de Staphylococcus aureus en las poliposis nasales.
2016
La rinosinusitis crónica (RSC) es una enfermedad inflamatoria, de más de 12 semanas de duración, que afecta a la mucosa de las fosas nasales y de los senos paranasales. Se caracteriza por presentar, obstrucción o congestión nasal, y/o rinorrea; y además poder presentar uno de estos dos síntomas, dolor o sensación de presión facial, y/o pérdida total o parcial del sentido del olfato. La RSC se divide en dos grupos RSC con ausencia o RSC con presencia de poliposis nasal (PN). Además clínicamente la rinosinusitis crónica con presencia de poliposis nasal (RSCcPN) pueden subclasificarse en (a) RSCcPN eosinofílica, que es bilateral e idiopática, pudiendo presentarse de forma aislada, asociada a a…
Concentración mínima inhibitoria (CMI) de vancomicina para Staphylococcus aureus y riesgo de bacteriemia complicada
2019
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) se encuentra ampliamente distribuido por todo el mundo, comportándose tanto como patógeno como comensal. Se estima que entre un 25-50% de personas sanas puede colonizarse de manera persistente o transitoria (Longo, 2012). Este microorganismo constituye una de las principales causas de infecciones nosocomiales, siendo una de las primeras causas de bacteriemias primarias (Rigby and DeLeo, 2012) y encabezando la lista de los productores de infecciones de piel y tejidos blandos, heridas quirúrgicas, endocarditis y sepsis relacionada con catéter (Seidl et al., 2011). La bacteriemia se define como la presencia de bacterias viables en sangre; ésta puede o no estar…

’Green’ strategies and approaches. A contribution from the off-site and upcycling of discarded shipping containers
2021
La Terra versa oggi in una condizione di vulnerabilità che gran parte degli studiosi attribuisce a un modello di crescita infinita inseguita su un pianeta con risorse limitate. In relazione a questo contesto ambientale critico il contributo si propone di stimolare nuove prassi per il settore delle costruzioni suggerendo una visione sistemica che faccia ricorso contemporaneamente a più approcci sostenibili e circolari e che, combinando tecniche e tecnologie tradizionali e innovative, consenta l’eliminazione di scarti e rifiuti. In particolare, l’articolo illustra le potenzialità della prefabbricazione nel contenimento degli impatti ambientali diretti e indiretti rispetto a un’equivalente cos…
Requalification of the Tobacco Factory in Palermo with destination to social finalities
2016
From the Sixties and for many years later the construction of new buildings, both public and residential, has made our cities more and more large, with a great squandering of ground, pollution and reduction of the green areas. A necessary trend reversal has implied a growing interest towards the rehabilitation and requalification of the brownfields. These, both inside the urban fabric and in suburban areas, offer complexes of buildings with great potentiality for a sustainable reuse both from the social point of view and from the environmental one. The large dimensions, the great spans and the materials usually used make these buildings suitable to a recovery which makes possible a rehabili…
Preliminary Evaluation of Plasmix Compound from Plastics Packaging Waste for Reuse in Bituminous Pavements
2021
Finding an appropriate technical solution for reusing waste plastics is crucial for creating a circular plastic economy. Although mechanical recycling is the best option for recycling post-consumer plastics, some heterogeneous mixed plastics cannot be recycled to produce secondary material due to their very low properties. In this case, alternative routes should be considered in order to limit their disposal as much as possible. Therefore, in order to solve the environmental problems in the landfills of plastic waste recycling, and to improve the mechanical performance of bitumen for road pavement, the reuse of these post-consumer plastic wastes are preliminarily evaluated for the modificat…
Thiazole Analogues of the Marine Alkaloid Nortopsentin as Inhibitors of Bacterial Biofilm Formation
2020
Anti-virulence strategy is currently considered a promising approach to overcome the global threat of the antibiotic resistance. Among different bacterial virulence factors, the biofilm formation is recognized as one of the most relevant. Considering the high and growing percentage of multi-drug resistant infections that are biofilm-mediated, new therapeutic agents capable of counteracting the formation of biofilms are urgently required. In this scenario, a new series of 18 thiazole derivatives was efficiently synthesized and evaluated for its ability to inhibit biofilm formation against the Gram-positive bacterial reference strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and S. aureus ATCC 6538 a…
From ambient to preserve the cold at ambient to preserve and to exhibit contemporary art: the "pit of snow" of villa Cattolica (SIcily) - Da ambiente…
2013
Sino a quando non sono stati inventati i moderni sistemi di refrigerazione, il compito di mantenere temperature basse era demandato a speciali architetture. Nel Meridione d’Italia e in particolare in Sicilia detto compito era affidato alla “fossa della neve”. In generale trattasi di un ambiente ipogeo nel quale veniva conservata la neve, per essere, nella sua maggiore quantità, utilizzata, nella tarda primavera e nella torrida stagione estiva, per la produzione di gelati e bevande fresche. Nella città di Palermo e nelle sue campagne circostanti non vi era palazzo, convento o villa che non possedeva una “fossa della neve”. Infatti numerosi sono i documenti di archivio che ci informano sulla …
Aborder la question des violences sexuelles en littérature : perspectives méthodologiques
2022
Ce texte est tiré de la présentation proposée aux côtés de Lucie Nizard et d'Anne-Claire Marpeau lors de la séance « Aborder la question des violences sexuelles en littérature : perspectives méthodologiques » du séminaire « Actualité de la recherche » organisé par le laboratoire POLEN à l'université d'Orléans.
Modelling the removal and reversible immobilization of murine noroviruses in a Phaeozem under various contamination and rinsing conditions
2018
International audience; Enteric viruses entering the soil with contaminated irrigation water can reach groundwater or be internalized in plants through their roots without being inactivated. Their fate in the soil depends on the virus, the soil and the soil solution. In order to write a mathematical model suitable for a Calcaric Phaeozem, we investigated the removal of murine norovirus and reversible immobilization in aggregate columns according to a saturation procedure, conditions between contamination and rinsing time, temperature and soil solution. Viruses were quantified before and after 0.45‐μm filtration with an RT‐qPCR (real‐time polymerase chain reaction). Experimental results supp…
