Robotic Total Mesometrial Resection versus Laparoscopic Total Mesometrial Resection in Early Cervical Cancer: A Case-Control Study
2016
Abstract Study Objective To report our experience with robotic total mesometrial resection (R-TMMR) comparing perioperative results with a series of laparoscopic total mesometrial resections (L-TMMRs). Design Multicenter retrospective case-control study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). Setting Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Rome (Italy) and Campobasso (Italy). Patients From July 2013 to August 2015 all cervical cancer patients with preoperative FIGO stage IA2 to IB1 were assessed at preoperative magnetic resonance imaging scan and clinically confirmed by investigation under anesthesia, complying strictly with the FIGO criteria. Surgical and postsurgical data of the TMM…
Emotional Intelligence of Undergraduate Athletes: The Role of Sports Experience.
2021
Sport is an emotional experience. Studies have shown that high emotional intelligence (EI) is associated with better sports performance, though different aspects of sports experience and their relationship with EI are still unclear. This study examined the possible relationships between sports experience and EI dimensions of undergraduate athletes. Likewise, according to the differences described in the literature between men and women, the secondary aim was to identify the possible relationship between EI and sports experience in both subgroups. A total of 1784 [712 men (39.9%), 1072 women (60.1%); mean age = 21.3 years, SD = 4.2)] undergraduate athletes completed the Trait Meta Mood Scale…
Laparoscopic radical hysterectomy in cervical cancer as total mesometrial resection (L-TMMR): A multicentric experience
2015
Abstract Objective To analyze the feasibility of total mesometrial resection by laparoscopy (L-TMMR) in a multicentric series of early stage cervical cancer. Method We prospectively evaluated a consecutive series of cervical cancer patients with pre-operative FIGO stages IA2–IB1 at the Catholic University in Rome and in Campobasso and the Charite University in Berlin. All cases were assessed at pre-operative MRI scan and clinically confirmed by investigation under anesthesia, adhering strictly to the FIGO criteria. The surgical and post-surgical data were collected. Results 104 women with cervical cancer were admitted between July 2013 and August 2014 and among them 71 patients with pre-ope…
Assessment of Five Monazite Reference Materials for U-Th/Pb Dating Using Laser-Ablation ICP-MS
2019
Monazite is a common accessory phosphate mineral that occurs under a wide range of pressure and temperature conditions in sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks. Monazite contains high amounts of Th and U, rendering single monazite grains suitable for in-situ U-Th/Pb dating using laser ablation inductively-coupled mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). Two key aspects of monazite dating that are critical for accurate age data with maximum precision are (i) optimized instrumental conditions to minimize analytical scatter and (ii) a well characterized reference material to ensure the accuracy of the obtained aged. Here, we analyzed five monazite reference materials (USGS 44069, 94-222, MAdel, Moa…
Laparoscopic Total Mesometrial Resection (L-TMMR)
2017
Abdominal radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dis- section as introduced by Wertheim and Meigs [1–2] first in the beginning of the century is still regarded as “gold stan- dard” in the surgical treatment of the uterine cervix carci- noma, FIGO stages IA2-IB and IIA. The resection of the parametrial and paracervical tissues proposed by the conventional radical hysterectomy is based on a “centrifu- gal diffusion” from the center of the tumor on the direction of the parametrial (dorsal, lateral and ventral) highways. This imply a classic functional and ligament-focused view of the surgical anatomy.

Validation of TMMS-24 in Three Spanish-Speaking Countries: Argentina, Ecuador, and Spain
2021
Emotional intelligence (EI) is a fundamental skill related to different aspects of human life, such as psychological well-being or mood states. The present study has a triple objective: first, to explore the psychometric properties of the TMMS-24 in three Spanish-speaking countries (Argentina, Ecuador, and Spain)
