Expired Tidal Volume and Respiratory Rate During Postnatal Stabilization of Newborn Infants Born at Term via Cesarean Delivery

2021

Objective To retrieve evolving respiratory measures in the first minutes after birth in normal neonates born at term using a respiratory function monitor. Study design We evaluated newborn babies delivered at term via cesarean after uncomplicated pregnancies. Immediately after birth, a respiratory function monitor with an adapted flowmeter and a face mask were applied at 2, 5, and 10 minutes after birth for 90 seconds in each period. We analyzed expired and inspired tidal volume, respiratory rate (RR), percentage of leakage, and number of analyzed breaths in each individual infant's recording using a respiratory research software. Results A total of 243 infants completed the study. The fina…

ESTIMATION OF ATTRIBUTE IMPORTANCE BY CHOICE TIME IN A RANKING TASK

2010

The evaluation of the quality of products and services as a function of their attributes has been broadly implemented in marketing research. The current methods for identifying important attributes and prioritize them suffer from theoretical and practical limitations. The former are related to the choice of the most appropriate model for the specific experimental context, the latter are due to the large amount of variables (cognitive, context and survey variables) affecting the chosen model. This work aims at presenting a new method for capturing consumer attribute preferences and estimating the relative importance weights by using the choice time in a ranking task. All is made through an e…

A "best practice" for inclusive art cities: the case study of the I-Access project

2022

The essay aims to illustrate the results of the I-Access Interreg Italia Malta 2016-20 project, conducted by a partnership led by the Department of Architecture, University of Palermo, with the scientific coordination of Renata Prescia. The project involved the Vucciria district in Palermo and the Bijcceria district in Valletta. Within the range of products that have been created (including database, web platform, mobile apps, protocol), in this essay we want to illustrate the actions implemented to facilitate both physical and cultural accessibility, from the integrated points of view between restoration and exhibition design. They are actions for overcoming of architectural barriers, cult…

Diversita’ spaziale del cloro residuo nelle reti di approvvigionamento idrico

2007

La qualità dell’acqua nelle reti di distribuzione può essere sensibilmente alterata da una serie di processi che si sviluppano sia lungo il sistema di adduzione che nella stessa rete di distribuzione. La riduzione della concentrazione di cloro, utilizzato per la disinfezione delle acque, può essere considerata un indice del progressivo deterioramento delle caratteristiche igieniche dell'acqua circolante in rete. La concentrazione del cloro, libero o combinato, è infatti strettamente legata alle reazioni che si sviluppano all’interno delle condotte. In questo lavoro particolare attenzione è rivolta alla identificazione della diversità spaziale del cloro residuo in rete. L’analisi viene condo…

A novel microtubule de-stabilizing complementarity-determining region C36L1 peptide displays antitumor activity against melanoma in vitro and in vivo

2015

AbstractShort peptide sequences from complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of different immunoglobulins may exert anti-infective, immunomodulatory and antitumor activities regardless of the specificity of the original monoclonal antibody (mAb). In this sense, they resemble early molecules of innate immunity. C36L1 was identified as a bioactive light-chain CDR1 peptide by screening 19 conserved CDR sequences targeting murine B16F10-Nex2 melanoma. The 17-amino acid peptide is readily taken up by melanoma cells and acts on microtubules causing depolymerization, stress of the endoplasmic reticulum and intrinsic apoptosis. At low concentrations, C36L1 inhibited migration, invasion and proli…

Impact of operation duration on postoperative outcomes of minimally-invasive right colectomy

2022

Aim: Operation time (OT) is a key operational factor influencing surgical outcomes. The present study aimed to analyse whether OT impacts on short-term outcomes of minimally-invasive right colectomies by assessing the role of surgical approach (robotic [RRC] or laparoscopic right colectomy [LRC]), and type of ileocolic anastomosis (i.e., intracorporal [IA] or extra-corporal anastomosis [EA]). Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of the Minimally-invasivE surgery for oncological Right ColectomY (MERCY) Study Group database, which included adult patients with nonmetastatic right colon adenocarcinoma operated on by oncological RRC or LRC between January 2014 and December 2020. Univariate…

Ampliamento del teatro all'aperto di Siderno

2012

Il piccolo teatro all’aperto di Siderno si inserisce all’interno di una vasta ansa aperta verso il mare la cui particolare orografia ha determinato nel tempo un limite all’espansione dell’insediamento urbano. La cavea del teatro esistente ricalca l’andamento del fondovalle stabilendo così un dialogo con le forme del paesaggio in cui l’opera si inserisce. Il progetto per la sistemazione e l’ampliamento del teatro all’aperto a partire da questi presupposti si propone di valorizzare l’affaccio sulla vallata e ridefinire il basamento disposto verso valle inoltre, assecondando la vocazione del centro storico di Siderno orientata alla erogazione di servizi connessi alla cultura e al tempo libero,…

L'appello

2018

Il contributo analizza l'istituto dell'appello penale. Dopo un inquadramento sistematico dell'istituto, con riguardo alla struttura e la funzione dello stesso, ci si sofferma sui casi di appello, sull'atto e sull'appello incidentale. L'attenzione poi è rivolta alla cognizione del giudice e i poteri decisori. Quindi si affronta il complesso tema del giudizio d'appello, analizzando le novità introdotte dalla c.d. Riforma Orlando in tema di rinnovazione dell'istruzione dibattimentale, della quale vengono individuati i casi di rinnovazione obbligatoria e quelli affidati alla discrezionalità del giudice. L'analisi quindi affronta la controversa questione della natura dell'appello: nuovo giudizio…
