A Neuroeducation Analysis of Videogames
2016
The reflections contained in this research work deal with the educational challenge launched by Neuroeducation theory and the other cultural and social phenomenon of videogames, which have become more than pure forms of entertainment and fun, more and more metaphors of the big game of the reality of life. Many studies say that video game play is beginning to threaten traditional home entertainment choices (especially television), posing a very real threat to other media revenue streams. The reasons for video games growth in sales and popularity can be credited to the growth in the popularity and the technical innovations in the mobile sector. Attempting to support videogames for education a…
Measurement invariance of the nine-item Internet Gaming Disorder Scale (IGDS9-SF) across Albania, USA, UK, and Italy
2018
The IGDS9-SF, which assesses Internet Gaming Disorder behaviors, has been validated in a number of countries (Portugal, Italy, Iran, Slovenia), although the psychometric equivalence of the instrument has been assessed only across Australia, the USA, the UK, and India. This research aimed at providing further cross-cultural insights into IGD by assessing the factorial structure of the IGDS9-SF in Albania and investigating its measurement invariance across Albanian, Italian, American, and British gamers. Multi-Group Confirmatory Factor Analyses were performed on a sample of 1411 participants from Albania (n = 228), USA (n = 237), the UK (n = 275), and Italy (n = 671). The CFAs confirmed the s…
Reducing Visuospatial Pseudoneglect in Healthy Subjects by Active Video Gaming
2023
Pseudoneglect phenomenon refers to a condition in which healthy subjects tend to perceive the left side of exactly bisected lines as being slightly longer than the right one. However, behavioural data showed that athletes practising an open-skill sport display less pseudoneglect than the general population. Given the fact that so-called exergames (also known as active video games) are platforms designed to fully mimic sport activity, this work intends to investigate whether and how a one-week training period of exergame open-skill sport can determine a similar decrease in pseudoneglect. Fifteen healthy participants (non-athletes) responded to a visuospatial attention task and a control memo…

Il ruolo della ERCP nell’era della colecistectomia videolaparoscopica. Nostra esperienza

Emoperitoneo da rottura di ematoma subcapsulare epatico indotto dal ketorolac dopo colecistectomia laparoscopica. Caso clinico
2008
Ketorolac is one of the most common nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs used to control postoperative pain. However, peri- and postoperative administration of ketorolac is associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding as described in the literature. Notwithstanding this event is not frequent, it can expose the patient to serious complications that should be quickly recognised and effectively treated. We present a report about a female patient with cholelithiasis who underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. After the operation, the patient had a haemorrhage that we attributed to surgery in a first time and then to administration of ketorolac
Pancoast tumour: current therapeutic options
2019
Pancoast's syndrome is caused by malignant neoplasm of superior sulcus of the lung which produces destructive lesions of thoracic inlet and comes along with the involvement of brachial plexus and stellate ganglion. Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans can detect early lesions otherwise missed by routine radiographs and can also define the local extent or metastatic progression of the disease. Protocols involving combinations of irradiation, chemotherapy, and surgery are currently being under investigation to determine the best management.This work reviewed the current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to Pancoast's tumors.Patients with lung superior sulcus …

L'ADENOIDECTOMIA PER VIA ENDOSCOPICA
2012
Gli Autori descrivono i vantaggi dell’adenoidectomia eseguita in video-endoscopia per la possibilità di asportare completamente la tonsilla faringea ed il tessuto linfatico peritubarico, spesso responsabile delle otiti sieromucose recidivanti. Infine espongono una tecnica chirurgica personale, che consente la sicura asportazione totale della tonsilla faringea.
