Mappare la qualità della vita a Palermo: gli stili di vita di un centro storico che cambia
2020
Il centro storico di Palermo sta attraversando, negli ultimi anni, cambiamenti significativi tanto dal punto di vista fisico quanto per la sua composizione sociale. L’ormai pluridecennale processo di gentrification, iniziato alla fine degli anni ’90, si è intersecato negli ultimi anni con un incremento delle presenze turistiche, dovute anche a grandi eventi (Capitale Italiana della Cultura, Manifesta), e con la forte presenza di cittadini stranieri residenti. Questo contesto così eterogeneo e complesso induce a riflettere sulla questione delle politiche di inclusione, che emerge ogniqualvolta si prendono in considerazione i grandi cambiamenti di composizione sociale e le conseguenti dinamic…
Mechanisms of cell death in canine parvovirus-infected cells provide intuitive insights to developing nanotools for medicine
2010
Jonna Nykky, Jenni E Tuusa, Sanna Kirjavainen, Matti Vuento, Leona GilbertNanoscience Center and Department of Biological and Environmental Science, University of Jyväskylä, FinlandAbstract: Viruses have great potential as nanotools in medicine for gene transfer, targeted gene delivery, and oncolytic cancer virotherapy. Here we have studied cell death mechanisms of canine parvovirus (CPV) to increase the knowledge on the CPV life cycle in order to facilitate the development of better parvovirus vectors. Morphological studies of CPV-infected Norden laboratory feline kidney (NLFK) cells and canine fibroma cells (A72) displayed characteristic apoptotic events. Apoptosis was f…
Neuropatías trigeminales tumorales: presentación de 7 casos
2006
Las neuropatías del trigémino de origen tumoral suponen un bajo porcentaje de las neuropatías trigeminales, pero pueden tener muy mal pronóstico. Es importante descartar una neoplasia en los pacientes con adormecimiento en el territorio del trigémino. Presentamos 7 casos de neuropatías trigeminales secundarias a tumores; en 4 existían antecedentes de neoplasias sistémicas previas y en 3 la neuropatía fue el primer signo de la enfermedad tumoral. En tres ocasiones la lesión se localizó en mandíbula, una en base de cráneo, una en troncoencéfalo, una a nivel cerebral y en una no se encontró el nivel lesional. La evolución fue muy mala en 5 pacientes; sólo se recuperó un caso en el que tras la …
Mental fatigue induced by prolonged self-regulation does not exacerbate central fatigue during subsequent whole-body endurance exercise
2015
International audience; It has been shown that the mental fatigue induced by prolonged self-regulation increases perception of effort and reduces performance during subsequent endurance exercise. However, the physiological mechanisms underlying these negative effects of mental fatigue are unclear. The primary aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that mental fatigue exacerbates central fatigue induced by whole-body endurance exercise. Twelve subjects performed 30 min of either an incongruent Stroop task to induce a condition of mental fatigue or a congruent Stroop task (control condition) in a random and counterbalanced order. Both cognitive tasks (CTs) were followed by a whole-body …
Electrocatheter-mediated High-voltage Pulsed Radiofrequency of the Dorsal Root Ganglion in the Treatment of Chronic Lumbosacral Neuropathic Pain
2019
Objectives: Despite the interest in scientific community, there is still poor evidence about pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) efficacy in the treatment of neuropathic pain. In order to determine whether high-voltage PRF and epidural adhesiolysis (PRF-EA) showed better results than epidural adhesiolysis alone (EA), a randomized, double-blind, comparative-effectiveness study was conducted in patients with chronic lumbosacral radiating pain and neuropathic features. Materials and Methods: A total of 41 patients were randomly allocated to 2 groups. Twenty-one patients were randomized to receive 2 cycles of 240 seconds high-voltage PRF followed by the injection of local anesthetics, hyaluronidase, an…

Parietal Cortex Connectivity as a Marker of Shift in Spatial Attention Following Continuous Theta Burst Stimulation
2021
Non-invasive brain stimulation is a useful tool to probe brain function and provide therapeutic treatments in disease. When applied to the right posterior parietal cortex (PPC) of healthy participants, it is possible to temporarily shift spatial attention and mimic symptoms of spatial neglect. However, the field of brain stimulation is plagued by issues of high response variability. The aim of this study was to investigate baseline functional connectivity as a predictor of response to an inhibitory brain stimulation paradigm applied to the right PPC. In fourteen healthy adults (9 female, aged 24.8 ± 4.0 years) we applied continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) to suppress activity in the …
Il danno non patrimoniale
2022
Il saggio affronta il tema del risarcimento del danno non patrimoniale nella prospettiva della revisione della disciplina del codice civile in materiale. L'autore analizza l'evoluzione della riflessione scientifica sul punto e gli orientamenti della giurisprudenza, tentando la razionalizzazione e l'integrazione delle conclusioni oggi prevalenti. Il saggio si chiude con una proposta di modifica dell'art. 2059 del codice civile. The essay addresses the issue of damages for non-pecuniary loss in the perspective of the revision of the discipline of the civil code in material. The author analyzes the evolution of scientific reflection on this point and the orientations of jurisprudence, attempti…
Betatrophin Levels Are Related to the Early Histological Findings in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
2021
Betatrophin, a liver hormone, regulates glucose and lipid metabolism. We investigated the betatrophin levels in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and searched for any relationship with histological severity and metabolic parameters. Fifty males with NAFLD [Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) (n = 32)
