Stunted root development: A rare dental complication of Stevens-Johnson syndrome
2016
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a severe cutaneous reaction seen rarely in clinical practice. Most often, it occurs as an adverse reaction to certain drugs. When it affects children at a very young age, arrested tooth root development may also be seen. We present a case of a 13 year old boy who suffered from SJ syndrome at the age of 7 years. Incomplete root development was observed in all teeth, as demonstrated by panaromic radiography. Clinical features of this condition and its management are further discussed. We aim to emphasise on the need for dental practitioners to be aware of the potential dental complications of SJS and enable them to recognise and manage the condition at the ea…
Systemic therapies for Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis: a SCORTEN-based systematic review and meta-analysis.
2020
Background The SCORTEN score is a specific predictor of mortality for patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). There is little evidence in support of the common immunomodulating therapies for SJS/TEN. Objectives To systematically assess the effectiveness of several therapies for SJS/TEN through the SCORTEN score. Methods Databases were searched for original studies on the use of SCORTEN. Six meta-analyses were carried out on patients with SJS/TEN who received supportive care only or in combination with immunomodulating drugs: corticosteroids, cyclosporine, etanercept, immunoglobulins or a combination of corticosteroids with immunoglobulins. A multivaria…
TEVAR and periscope graft technique to treatment of huge aneurysm of aortic isthmus: Case report
2021
Introduction Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has revolutionized the treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms. Innovative techniques as chimney and periscope grafts can improve the outcomes of procedure. Herein, we report a case in emergency of huge Thoracic aortic aneurism. Presentation of case An 86-year-old male with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, was referred to our hospital for chest pain. CT-angiography showed a huge aneurysm of aortic isthmus with signs of rupture. The patient was considered unfit for open surgery and an endovascular approach was chosen. This patient underwent endovascular repair with TEVAR, using the periscope graft technique to preserve patency in left s…
Production and characterization of the recombinant Sphingomonas chlorophenolica pentachlorophenol 4-monooxygenase.
2001
Abstract Pentachlorophenol 4-monooxygenase (PCP4MO) from Sphingomonas chlorophenolica is a flavoprotein that hydroxylates PCP in the presence of NADPH and oxygen. In order to investigate the structure and function of active site, recombinant PCP4MO (rePCP4MO) was produced in Escherichia coli as a glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein. Moreover, a tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease cleavage site (EKLYFQG) was introduced into GST-PCP4MO and a his-tagged TEV protease was employed. Hence, a two-step purification protocol was developed which allowed obtaining 15–20 mg of rePCP4MO from 1 L culture. The rePCP4MO revealed identity with native enzyme by SDS–PAGE and N-terminal sequence analy…
A Unified Theory of Psychophysical Laws in Auditory Intensity Perception.
2020
Psychophysical laws quantitatively relate perceptual magnitude to stimulus intensity. While most people have accepted Stevens's power function as the psychophysical law, few believe in Fechner's original idea using just-noticeable-differences (jnd) as a constant perceptual unit to educe psychophysical laws. Here I present a unified theory in hearing, starting with a general form of Zwislocki's loudness function (1965) to derive a general form of Brentano's law. I will arrive at a general form of the loudness-jnd relationship that unifies previous loudness-jnd theories. Specifically, the "slope," "proportional-jnd," and "equal-loudness, equal-jnd" theories, are three additive terms in the ne…

Un dialogue entre l'humain et le divin. Les paroles monumentales à Saint-Clément (1118) et à Sainte-Marie-du-Transtévère (v. 1143) à Rome
2019
The textual formulas inscribed in the basilical decors of San Clemente and Santa Maria in Trastevere at Rome, encourage to think about the presence, the power and the significance of the voice in ecclesial spaces. Unrolled on phylacteries or inscribed in gold letters on apsidal conch, the words from sacred texts, but also the legends and the dedications aim to establish the auctoritas of the visual discourse. Perpetuated voices of the prophets, apostles, of Christ and the Church take part in the monumentality of the decor. These inscribed voices animate and update the decor at the rythme of liturgies. We propose to consider these inscriptions as crystallization of historic contexts. The Chu…
Motivaation laadun yhteys harjoitteluun 15-vuotiailla maastohiihtäjillä
2011
Tässä tutkimuksessa tutkittiin 15-vuotiaiden maastohiihtäjien motivaation laatua, koettua fyysistä pätevyyttä, sekä näiden tekijöiden vaikutuksia hiihtäjien kilpailu- ja harjoittelumääriin, sekä näkemykseen hiihtourastaan tulevaisuudessa. Myös sukupuolen vaikutus otettiin tutkimuksessa huomioon. Motivaation laatua pidetään keskeisenä asiana urheilijan tai liikunnan harrastajan harjoittelun ja urheilu-uran jatkumisen kannalta. Tässä tutkimuksessa motivaatiota lähestyttiin Decin ja Ryanin kehittelemän itse-määräämisteorian viitekehyksestä (1985b, 2000b, 2002). Tutkimus oli luonteeltaan määrällinen ja analysoinnissa käytettiin tilastollisia analyysimenetelmiä (mm. MANOVA, ANOVA, log-lineaarine…
