Lack of antiandrogenic effects of topical bifonazole on sebaceous glands and hairs in the hamster flank organ.
1993
The activity of topically applied bifonazole was evaluated in vivo in the three androgen-dependent structures of the hamster flank organ, i.e. the pigmented spot, sebaceous glands and hairs. Topical bifonazole in our experience did not demonstrate any morphological effect on sebaceous gland and hair even when applied in the dosage of 3 mg/cm<sup>2</sup>/day. On the basis of our morphometric results we can conclude that topically applied bifonazole does not interfere with cutaneous androgen metabolic transformations in the pilosebaceous unit of the flank organ.
Topical canrenoic acid. Quantification of the antiandrogenic activity in the hamster flank organ
1991
: The topical antiandrogenic activity of potassium canrenoate (CAK), compared with that of spironolactone (SP), was assayed in vivo in female golden Syrian hamsters whose flank organs were stimulated by subcutaneous administration of testosterone propionate. Sebaceous glands and hair were measured by a computerized image analyzer. Pigmented spots, sebaceous gland areas, and the diameter of hairs of the treated flank organs were smaller in the groups that received CAK (1·6 mg/day) and SP (0·4 mg/day). The authors' results showed that CAK may act as a topical antiandrogen on the hamster flank organ when applied in concentrations four times greater than the minimal active dosage of SP. Potassi…
Effects of essential oils of Origanum vulgare L. (Fam. Labiatee), Pelargonium odoratissimum L. (Fam. Geraniaceae) and Syzygium aromaticum L. (Fam. Mi…

The cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover (Homoptera: Aphidiidae), is a cosmopolitan and highly polyphagous species causing serious economic damage to numerous plants including Cucurbitaceae. The use of synthetic insecticides represent the main method of control of this aphid, often resulting in resistance to all the major insecticide group. The use of natural products, such as essential oils (EOs), has increased in recent years because they have advantages in reduction of this resistance. Within this research area, we have implement and evaluate the applications of EOs that aim at reinforcing knowledge on the control of this aphid. We investigated the topical application of the EOs of Origan…
Aspetti della variabilità in “Fiabe novelle e racconti popolari siciliani” .
2017
Il materiale linguistico dei testi popolari raccolti da Pitrè è materia viva. I suoi narratori sono parlanti reali, radicati nelle rispettive comunità delle quali ripropongono i tratti linguistici – nella loro specificità e autenticità – che lo studioso deve saper cogliere e rappresentare “immediatamente”. Ma, raccogliendo e trascrivendo i testi di "Fiabe novelle e racconti popolari siciliani", Pitrè, più che con «la parola», si trova a operare con “il parlato”. Operando, dunque, sul piano “etnotestuale”, il suo materiale linguistico, assimilabile, per certi versi, a un corpus di parlato spontaneo, postula di essere osservato e rappresentato dalla prospettiva "sintattica" e non soltanto da …
Hexyl aminolevulinate, 5‐aminolevulinic acid nanoemulsion and methyl aminolevulinate in photodynamic therapy of non‐aggressive basal cell carcinomas:…
2020
Background In the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of non‐aggressive basal cell carcinomas (BCCs), 5‐aminolevulinic acid nanoemulsion (BF‐200ALA) has shown non‐inferior efficacy when compared with methyl aminolevulinate (MAL), a widely used photosensitizer. Hexyl aminolevulinate (HAL) is an interesting alternative photosensitizer. To our knowledge, this is the first study using HAL‐PDT in the treatment of BCCs. Objectives To compare the histological clearance, tolerability (pain and post‐treatment reaction), and cosmetic outcome of MAL, BF‐200 ALA, and low‐concentration HAL in the PDT of non‐aggressive BCCs. Methods Ninety‐eight histologically verified non‐aggressive BCCs met the inclusion criter…
Efficacy and safety of two artificial saliva-based polymers containing 0.1% pilocarpine for treatment of xerostomia: A randomized clinical pilot tria…
2021
Background Topical agents are the mainstay in the treatment of xerostomia, a common complaint most frequently associated with salivary dysfunction. This study aimed to compared the efficacy and safety for xerostomia treatment of 2 artificial saliva preparations containing 0.1% pilocarpine, and, either sodium carboxymethylcellulose (SCMC), or, sodium polyacrylate (SPA). Material and Methods Thirty-one xerostomia patients were randomly allocated into either a SCMC-treated group (15 patients), or, a SPA-treated group (16 patients). The formulations were taken 0.5 ml, 4 times daily for 6 weeks and double-blinded assessed before and after treatments using Xerostomia Inventory (XI) and Clinical O…
Hidradenitis suppurativa in surgeons' practice: Prevalence and treatment approach according to the Hurley stage in Latvia
2020
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, recurrent, debilitating, and frequently misdiagnosed inflammatory skin disease that often requires surgical intervention. To assess the prevalence of HS patients in surgeons' practice and surgeons' approach to treating HS patients, we created a self-administered, Hurley stage-based questionnaire that was distributed during the Latvian Association of Surgeons meeting. Of the total 60 questionnaires distributed, 56 (93%) were collected and 53 (88%) of them were considered valid. Overall, 73.6% of the surgeons confirmed having seen patients with chronic inflamed suppurative lesions in the skin folds during their practice. Median reported number of HS…
Os princípios da administração pública: aspectos a considerar
2000
The article treats about the experience developed in teaching project. The technique employment was looked for that carried in its salience the possibility of larger integration of the academic theoretical knowledge to the reality of the life, that could contribute to a formation more returned to the nowadays ditames. It was outstanding the system aspects of the right and the possibility of the use of the topical thought, giving emphasis to the hole and reduce visions. The reason of the adoption of methodological plurality was described, but it was made with the prominence for the technique of the problematization. It stood out the importance of the principles of the right and its pertinenc…
Morir d'amore. Il nesso Amore/Morte nella poesia di Properzio
2012
In questo volume lo studio di una specifica topica elegiaca, il nesso Amore/Morte, viene affrontato nella sua più immediata ricorrenza a livello di struttura superficiale della poesia di Properzio, ma anche nelle sue interrelazioni con la struttura profonda del testo, cioè con l'ideologia dell’autore, che si esprime prevalentemente nella riflessione sulle condizioni dell'esistenza elegiaca. Si rileva così una tensione, che percorre l’intera opera del poeta umbro, verso la costruzione di un sistema etico, di un mondo morale elegiaco, che si serve di Amore e Morte in quanto immagini in grado di sostenere tale processo nel modo più autentico, sul piano degli atteggiamenti e sul versante più sp…
