Commentary: Preliminary Evidence for Training-Induced Changes of Morphology and Phantom Limb Pain
2019
The aim of this study was to investigate whether a special prosthetic training in phantom limb pain patients aimed at increasing the functional use of the prosthesis leads to neural morphological plasticity of brain structures and a reduction in phantom limb pain. For chronic pain disorders, it was shown that morphological alterations due to pain might become at least partially reversed by pain therapies. Phantom limb pain is a chronic pain disorder that is frequently followed by neural plasticity of anatomical brain structures. In our study, 10 patients with amputation of the upper limb participated in a two-week training with a myoelectric prosthesis with somatosensory feedback. Grip stre…

Optimized culture conditions for tissue explants of uterine leiomyoma
2012
Background Uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign tumours in women, which arise from smooth muscle cells of the uterine myometrium and usually are multicentric. In spite of their frequency pathogenesis is widely unknown, mainly due to the absence of a suitable model system. We describe the systematic optimization of culturing leiomyoma tissue explants in an economical and effective ex vivo system. Methods Different concentrations of oxygen, different media, sera, hormones, and growth factor supplements were tested. Immunohistochemical stainings with antibodies against hormone receptors as well as specifying proliferation and apoptotic indices and real-time PCR were performed. Results…
Guillain-Barré syndrome after orthotopic liver transplantation: A clinical manifestation of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome?
2018
Guillain-Barrè Syndrome, as part of the spectrum of dysimmune neuropathies, is unexpected to occur in immunocompromised hosts. We describe a clinical case of Guillain-Barrè syndrome, occurred a few weeks after a liver transplant, and we postulate that our case would satisfy all requirements to explain this peripheral nervous system complication as a clinical manifestation of an Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome. In this setting of liver transplantation, complicated by potentially multiple infective triggers, reduction of immunosuppression and reversal of pathogen-induced immunosuppression, through antimicrobial therapy, may have led to pro-inflammatory response. The pro-inflammato…
Evaluation of the Oxiris Membrane in Cardiogenic Shock Requiring Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support: Study Protocol for a Single Center, Sin…
2021
Background: Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is the rescue treatment proposed to patients with refractory cardiogenic shock. The VA-ECMO implantation promotes inflammation and ischemia-reperfusion injuries through the VA-ECMO flow, causing digestive mucosa barrier disrupture and inducing translocation of bacterial wall components—Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) with further inflammation and circulatory impairment. LPS is a well-studied surrogate indicator of bacterial translocation. Oxiris membrane is a promising and well-tolerated device that can specifically remove LPS. The main study aim is to compare the LPS elimination capacity of Oxiris membrane vs. a non-absorban…
Pharmacokinetics of new oral anticoagulants: implications for use in routine care
2018
Introduction: Since 2008, new oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have been approved for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients receiving hip or knee replacement surgery, prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism (PE). Premarketing randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of NOACs demonstrated their non-inferiority in terms of efficacy vs. warfarin (traditional oral anticoagulant–TOA), with lower risk of serious adverse drug reactions, especially cerebral hemorrhages. In clinical practice, pharmacokinetic aspects of NOACs have to be carefully taken into account to …

2022
Bakalaura darba tēma ir realitātes šova “Saimnieks meklē sievu” dalībnieku popularitāte pēc dalības šovā: Magones Šutovienes gadījums. Darba mērķis ir analizēt Magones Šutovienes popularitāti medijos, balstoties uz viņas publicitāti ziņu portālos laika posmā no 2013.gada 1.oktobra līdz 2021. gada 31. decembrim. Pētījuma problēma ir realitātes šova “Saimnieks meklē sievu” dalībnieces Magones Šutovienes popularitāts iemesli interneta medijos vairāku gadu garumā pēc dalības šovā. Galvenā teorētiskā bāze ir televīzijas, realitātes šovu, dzeltenās preses mediju darbības pamatprincipi. Teorētiskajā daļā tiek pielietotas arī komunikācijas teorijas- kultivācijas teorija un sociāli kognitīvā teorija…
Rumor de pañuelo blanco: historia, memoria y representaciones literarias de Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo
2018
El 24 de marzo de 2016 se cumplieron 40 años del golpe de Estado del autodenominado Proceso de Reorganización Nacional que condujo a siete años de una sangrienta dictadura en Argentina. De entre las organizaciones de Derechos Humanos que surgieron como respuesta a las desapariciones ilegales de militantes y de civiles, las Madres y Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo se han constituido, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional, en evidencia de la historia de violencia y en símbolo de paz; como tales también han entrado en el plano de la ficción. Teniendo en cuenta estas líneas, en el presente trabajo se realiza, primero, un recorrido por la historia de las Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo y el cambio polític…
Salesperson adoption and usage of mobile sales configuration tools
2018
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine salespersons’ adoption and usage of mobile sales configuration tools (MSCT) and to identify areas for further development in this realm. Another objective is to offer a conceptualization of MSCT adoption.Design/methodology/approachFor this purpose, a qualitative case study approach was selected as the research method to better understand acceptance of a mobile configuration tool used by business-to-business (B2B) salespersons. Primary data were collected through semi-structured interviews, which included a series of open-ended questions to gain more detailed and contextual data.FindingsThe results obtained from the interviews indicated several …
Traduzione di J. R. Searle, Che cos'è il linguaggio. Alcune osservazioni preliminari.
2008
In questo saggio John Searle propone una concezione naturalizzata del linguaggio e dei rapporti tra linguaggio e realtà sociale. Mostra, più specificamente, come il linguaggio si sviluppi a partire da stati mentali prelinguistici quali le intenzioni, le credenze e i desideri, attraverso l'imposizione di condizioni di soddisfazione su condizioni di soddisfazione. Mostra, inoltre, come il linguaggio, rendendo possibili gli impegni deontici e le ragioni per l'azione indipendenti dal desiderio che caratterizzano la razionalità umana, sia parzialmente costitutivo della realtà istituzionale.
