Decontamination of dental implant surface in peri-implantitis treatment: A literature review
2013
Etiological treatment of peri-implantitis aims to reduce the bacterial load within the peri-implant pocket and decontaminate the implant surface in order to promote osseointegration. The aim of this literature review was to evaluate the efficacy of different methods of implant surface decontamination. A search was conducted using the PubMed (Medline) database, which identified 36 articles including in vivo and in vitro studies, and reviews of different decontamination systems (chemical, mechanical, laser and photodynamic therapies). There is sufficient consensus that, for the treatment of peri-implant infections, the mechanical removal of biofilm from the implant surface should be supplemen…

A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews on the Use of Aromatase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Endometriosis: The Evidence to Date
2023
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecologic condition that affects around 6-10% of reproductive age women. This clinical entity is characterized with pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and infertility which are the most often presenting symptoms. Aromatase P450 is the key enzyme for ovarian estrogen biosynthesis and there is evidence that endometriotic lesions express aromatase and are able to synthesize their own estrogens. Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are potent drugs that suppress the estrogen synthesis via suppression of aromatase. We performed a systematic review of systematic reviews and narrative reviews on the use of aromatase inhibitors in the medical management of endometriosis. We …
Novel metal–organic frameworks based on 5-bromonicotinic acid: Multifunctional materials with H2 purification capabilities
2012
Two new metal–organic frameworks based on 5-bromonicotinic acid complexes [Cd(5-BrNic)2]n (1) and [Co(5-BrNic)2(H2O)]n (2) have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions of this ligand with cadmium and cobalt metallic(II) salts in the presence of water. Compound 1 displays intense photoluminescence properties in the solid state at room temperature, while 2 exhibits an antiferromagnetic interaction between Co(II) ions with a J value of −4.1 cm−1. Experimental studies, backed up by Monte Carlo simulations about adsorption, pore size distribution and accessible surface area reveal the capability of 2 for H2 purification applications.
Single amino acids in the lumenal loop domain influence the stability of the major light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b complex.
2004
The major light-harvesting complex of photosystem II (LHCIIb) is one of the most abundant integral membrane proteins. It greatly enhances the efficiency of photosynthesis in green plants by binding a large number of accessory pigments that absorb light energy and conduct it toward the photosynthetic reaction centers. Most of these pigments are associated with the three transmembrane and one amphiphilic alpha helices of the protein. Less is known about the significance of the loop domains connecting the alpha helices for pigment binding. Therefore, we randomly exchanged single amino acids in the lumenal loop domain of the bacterially expressed apoprotein Lhcb1 and then reconstituted the muta…
Phygital accessibility e next normal per il patrimonio architettonico
2021
In modi e finalità dell’uso dell’ambiente costruito, sia ordinario sia connotato da significati culturali, il COVID-19 ha accelerato cambiamenti già avviati e in cui il consolidamento della IV Rivoluzione Industriale continua a giocare un ruolo essenziale. Prefigurando gli scenari post pandemici, l’affermazione della dimensione Phygital spinge la digitalizzazione oltre l’immaterialità astratta e avulsa, cercando rinnovate connessioni e sinergie tra mondo fisico e mondo digitale collegate allo specifico luogo. Alla sfera Phygital si possono riferire i più recenti avanzamenti su accessibilità e inclusione nel patrimonio archi- tettonico: uscendo dal loop virtuale e facendo leva sulla concrete…
Il progetto I-Access. Patrimonio culturale e accessibilità
2021
The volume is one of 3 (see notes) containing the results of the I-Access project: implementing accessibility in urban historic center's use and knowledge (Interreg V-A Italy-Malta, axis I, notice 1/16), of which R.P. is the project leader. Each section - accessibility, digital innovation, interventions, community - has always been referred, by scientific coordination, to cultural heritage. in the Appendices the fact sheets and verification of accessibility and the projects for overcoming the architectural barriers carried out, relating to the two churches of S. Maria la Nova and S. Maria in Valverde, are represented. for all activities, please refer to the site www.i-access.eu
Design, upgrade and characterization of the silicon photomultiplier front-end for the AMIGA detector at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2021
The successful installation, commissioning, and operation of the Pierre Auger Observatory would not have been possible without the strong commitment and effort from the technical and administrative staff in Malargue. We are very grateful to the following agencies and organizations for financial support: Argentina -Comision Nacional de Energia Atomica; Agencia Nacional de Promocion Cientifica y Tecnologica (ANPCyT); Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cientificas y Tecnicas (CONICET); Gobierno de la Provincia de Mendoza; Municipalidad de Malargue; NDM Holdings and Valle Las Lenas; in gratitude for their continuing cooperation over land access; Australia -the Australian Research Council; Braz…
Real-Time SRAM Based Particle Detector
2015
International audience; Monitoring radiative environments is of great importance, especially for facilities hosting large particle accelerators and nuclear power plants. Such facilities make use of monitoring systems that are usually composed of different sensors to evaluate the intensity of the ambient radiation field in different locations. In this paper, we propose an SRAM-based monitor that works in dynamic mode (memory continuously accessed), according to data gathered by irradiating our sensor in several particle accelerator facilities. The dynamic mode of operation allows for real-time sensing, especially when the particle fluence is high. In order to ensure the efficiency of the det…
