European guidelines on chronic mesenteric ischaemia - joint United European Gastroenterology, European Association for Gastroenterology, Endoscopy an…
2020
Chronic mesenteric ischaemia is a severe and incapacitating disease, causing complaints of post-prandial pain, fear of eating and weight loss. Even though chronic mesenteric ischaemia may progress to acute mesenteric ischaemia, chronic mesenteric ischaemia remains an underappreciated and undertreated disease entity. Probable explanations are the lack of knowledge and awareness among physicians and the lack of a gold standard diagnostic test. The underappreciation of this disease results in diagnostic delays, underdiagnosis and undertreating of patients with chronic mesenteric ischaemia, potentially resulting in fatal acute mesenteric ischaemia. This guideline provides a comprehensive overvi…

Manuale di linguistica ladina
2020
This volume is the first comprehensive handbook on Ladin linguistics. Ladin ("ladino brissino-tirolese" in Italian) is a group of varieties belonging to Rhaeto-Romance and spoken in North-eastern Italy. The volume consists of 18 chapters divided into three sections: 1. history and description of the internal linguistic properties of the Ladin varieties; 2. sociolinguistics and normalisation processes of Ladin; 3. tools for documenting and studying the Ladin varieties. Since this is the first handbook entirely dedicated to this language group, it aims both at a description that covers all the traditional topics and at an overview of the most recent approaches to the study and the preservatio…
Sull’efficacia preventiva, dissuasiva e protettiva delle misure antirapina
2015
L'A. esamina la questione dell'effettività delle misure antirapina, muovendo da un'analisi dei più significativi arresti della recente giurisprudenza di merito e di legittimità. Rifiutando astratte posizioni di principio, che dilaterebbero oltremodo l'obbligazione datoriale, la Suprema Corte nella pronuncia in commento ha declinato l'obbligo gravante sul datore di lavoro ex art. 2087 c.c. alla luce del canone di ragionevolezza.
Measurement of Solar pp-neutrino flux with Borexino: results and implications
2015
International audience; Measurement of the Solar pp-neutrino flux completed the measurement of Solar neutrino fluxes from the pp-chain of reactions in Borexino experiment. The result is in agreement with the prediction of the Standard Solar Model and the MSW/LMA oscillation scenario. A comparison of the total neutrino flux from the Sun with Solar luminosity in photons provides a test of the stability of the Sun on the 10(5) years time scale, and sets a strong limit on the power production by the unknown energy sources in the Sun.
Introduction to next-generation engineering: Being human in the information society
2022
While adopting Information Technology (IT) may have been a goal in itself in the past, during the last decade the emphasis has shifted, and IT has instead become a tool that enables us to realize other needs. This also sets new requirements for IT education: skills in software engineering and computer science alone do not provide students with the professional abilities they will need after graduation. To answer this call, the University of Jyväskylä launched in autumn 2021 a new engineering B.Sc. and M.Sc. degree program in Information and Software Engineering with close ties to the Humanities. The degree program was established on three cornerstones: 1) the ability to implement IT systems…
Linking bean-to-bar to sustainable entrepreneurship
2017
The increasing growth and recognition of bean-to-bar chocolate production have led to some people calling it a ”movement” or ”revolution”. The entrepreneurs championing bean-to-bar assert that their approach provides better and innovative services to both cocoa farmers (growers) and consumers. In essence, they are meaningfully contributing to the sustainable transformation of the cocoa industry. Furthermore, researchers agree that a concept that combines elements from both sustainability and entrepreneurship is called sustainable entrepreneurship. Therefore, are bean-to-bar chocolate producers sustainable entrepreneurs? In an attempt to answer this question, this thesis explores the links b…
Standardisation of methods for assessing mould germination: a workshop report.
2006
International audience; The first workshop on predictive mycology was held in Marseille, France, 2–4 February 2005 under the auspices of the French Microbiological Society. The purpose of the workshop was to list the different techniques and definitions used by scientists for assessing mould germination and to evaluate the influence of the different techniques on the experimental results. Recommendations were made when a large consensus was obtained. In order to facilitate the study of germination, alternative methods to microscopic examination were examined.
An Optoelectronic System for Measuring the Range of Motion in Healthy Volunteers: A Cross-Sectional Study.
2019
Background and Objectives: Within the clinical evaluation of multiple pathologies of the lower limb, the measurement of range of motion (ROM) of its joints is fundamental. To this end, there are various tools, from the goniometer as a reference to more recent devices such as inclinometry-based applications, photo capture applications, or motion capture systems. This study aimed to assess the validity, intra-rater, and inter-rater reliability of the VeloFlex system (VS), which is a new camera-based tool designed for tracking joint trajectories and measuring joint ROM. Materials and Methods: Thirty-five healthy volunteers (16 females
AB0465 Etanercept therapy in rheumatoid arthritis patients with moderate or severe disease activity
2013
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is conventionally defined as moderate when the disease activity score assessed in 28 joints (DAS28) is ≥3.2, and high disease with DAS28 >5.1 Objectives Aim of this analysis was to evaluate the rate of remission and LDA (low disease activity), in RA patients starting etanercept therapy with moderate disease activity in the real world settings Methods The clinical records were retrospectively analysed from the Italian nationwide registry, called GISEA (Gruppo Italiano Studio Early Arthritis). RA patients with moderate (Mod-RA) and high (H-RA) disease activity (DAS28 >3.2) with incomplete response to conventional DMARDs and beginning a treatment with etane…
