"Ultra vestimenta seu ornamenta ecclesiastica que etiam dedi eidem ecclesie". Tracce di un'eredità palermitana dell'arcivescovo Jean de Carondelet (1…

2016

Lo studio, dopo una breve biografia aggiornata di Jean Carondelet, importante colto ecclesiastico e politico fiammingo, che fu anche arcivescovo di Palermo dal 1520 al 1544, ne indaga la committenza artistica (vetrate istoriate, paramenti sacri ricamati, stalli corali lignei intagliati, manoscritti liturgici miniati, dipinti, sculture marmoree) tra Franca Contea, Paesi Bassi borgognoni e la stessa Palermo, col supporto di un'inedito testamento secondo cui egli avrebbe donato già in vita "vestimenta seu ornamenta ecclesiastica" di grande valore alla cattedrale palermitana, tra cui forse la mitria e il paliotto già tradizionalmente identificati col suo cognome.

The Effects of Short-Term Personal Goals on Subjective Well-Being

2015

Several studies demonstrated that subjective well-being is associated with goal value and perceived progress but their validity is affected by methodological biases. Moreover, a few have analysed the influence of short-term goals. We aimed to analyse how the levels of and changes in short-term goals progress and value influence subsequent levels of and changes in subjective well-being. This study adopted a three-wave longitudinal design with one-month intervals. Four hundred nine participants (186 males; age 19–71) reported their subjective well-being and their two most important goals and rated each over time in terms of value and progress. A latent difference score model revealed that lev…

Completing the logarithmic scoring rule for assessing probability distributions

2012

We propose and motivate an expanded version of the logarithmic score for forecasting distributions, termed the Total Log score. It incorporates the usual logarithmic score, which is recognised as incomplete and has been mistakenly associated with the likelihood principle. The expectation of the Total Log score equals the Negentropy plus the Negextropy of the distribution. We examine both discrete and continuous forms of the scoring rule, and we discuss issues of scaling for scoring assessments. The analysis suggests the dual tracking of the quadratic score along with the usual log score when assessing the qualities of probability distributions. An application to the sequential scoring of f…

2018

Data presented in this article are supplementary material to our article entitled "Identification and diagnosis of patients with familial chylomicronaemia syndrome (FCS): expert panel recom mendations and proposal of an "FCS Score" (Moulin et al., 2018, in press). The data describe the genotypes of patients with familial chylomicronaemia syndrome (FCS) and multifactorial chylomicro naemia syndrome (MCS), from the validation and replication cohorts.

Favorable outcome in open globe injuries with low OTS score

2014

Purpose:.Open globe eye injuries can have profound social and economic consequences. Here, we describe two cases of war and outdoor activity open globe eye injury where, despite a low OTS score,.current microsurgical technology allowed for a favorable outcome.Case report 1: A 33-year-old Libyan soldier had been treated for an open-globe grenade blast trauma to his left eye, which showed light perception and OTS score 2..He had undergone a lensectomy and PPV with silicone oil tamponade. Surgical treatment included scleral buckling,.cornea trephination, tem-porary Eckardt keratoprosthesis, PPV revision, intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, and corneal grafting. Six months later, his VA was im…

BONE MINERAL DENSITY, FRAGILITY FRACTURES AND CLINICAL RISK FACTORS

2018

Osteoporosis affects the skeletal system and is characterized by a reduction in bone strength that predisposes one to an increased risk of fractures. In Italy, about 3.5 million women and 1 million men suffers from osteoporosis. These numbers are set to increase in the coming twenty years because the percentage of the Italian population over 65 will increase by 25%. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the general characteristics of a population of patients suffering from osteoporosis and the relation with comorbidity. A single site, open-label, investigator-initiated, retrospective trial was conducted at the Bone Metabolic Disease Clinic, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitat…

SHOX Haploinsufficiency in Short and Not Short Children: A Sigle Italian Cetre Data

2018

SHOX haploinsufficiency (SHOX-D) is a cause of disharmonic short stature and a possible genetic cause of idiopathic short stature also in familial cases. We describe clinical, hormonal and genetic characteristics of patients with SHOX-D haploinsufficiency, followed and treated in the period 2014-2017, in a single Italian centre. The Rappold score was used to screen short children, to select those who needed a genetic analysis of SHOX gene by MLPA and sequencing. We selected 6 patients (5 females; 1 male; age: 1.2-11 years), with documented mutations of the SHOX gene or of the promoter. One patient was already treated with low doses of GH for GHD, documented by 2 tests. One patient had type …
