Is mental health literacy for depression associated with the intention toward preventive actions? A cross-sectional study among university students
2021
Objective Mental Health Literacy (MHL) might play an important role in preventing depression. This study assessed the MHL level for depression of university students and its association with intentions toward preventive actions against depression. Participants: University students (n = 315) were surveyed online. Methods: MHL level and group differences were analyzed using t-tests and one-way ANOVA. To investigate the relation between MHL and the intention for preventive actions against depression, correlation and regression analyses were performed. Results: The mean MHL level of the participants was reasonably high (42.65 of 75 points). MHL levels differed significantly between different gr…
TAVI nel trattamento della stenosi aortica degenerativa: stato dell’arte e prospettive
2014
Degenerative aortic stenosis is the most common form of heart valve disease in developed countries and predominantly affects the elderly. Aortic valve replacement (AVR) has been the gold standard, but recently, transcatheter aortic valve implantation has emerged as an effective therapeutic alternative to conventional AVR for high-risk patients. This review analyzed the literature about AVR, with the objective of evaluating the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients who are not eligible for surgery showing an improvement in quality of life and middle-term outcomes. The crucial point is the lack of studies with long-term follow-up that could give therapeutic importanc…

L’abside in facciata: soluzioni “antisismiche” del XVIII secolo in Sicilia
2015
Nel corso del Settecento vennero progettate e costruite in Sicilia facciate chiesastiche caratterizzate da conformazioni curvilinee. Forme convesse e concave, posizionate in corrispondenza del partito centrale della facciata rendono queste strutture assimilabili alle absidi. Scelte di natura estetica hanno inizialmente innescato fenomeni emulativi sulla base della ricezione dei modelli diffusi dalla seconda metà del Seicento in Sicilia dalle incisioni riproducenti le facciate inflesse prodotte dai maestri del Barocco romano. Finora l'interesse verso questi modelli è apparso lo schema interpretativo più pertinente per spiegare gli indirizzi progettuali dei maggiori artefici operanti nel Sett…
The combination of laser-assisted surgery with PRP for the treatment of BRONJ in cancer patient. A pilot study
2014
Aim. Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a well-known potential complication of bisphosphonates (BPs) therapy and its treatment could reckon on different approaches. Recently, encouraging results for BRONJ were showed from some clinical studies using Er, Cr: YSGG laser-assisted surgery. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), a new approach to promote tissue regeneration and healing, may be a promising complementary therapy. The aim of this pilot study is to study the effectiveness, in terms of clinical healing, of a combined treatment (laserassisted surgery and topical PRP) for BRONJ in a group of cancer patients. Methods. Ten oncological patients (3 males, 7 females; aged 69-89…
Description of a new protocol with application of PRP in post-extraction sockets of a patient treated with aminobisphosphonate
2014
Background. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), an autologous product rich of growth factors, is an adjunctive bio-material able to promote healing in dental surgery, especially in elderly. It is also used for treating bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) and for application in post-extraction alveolar site in order to obtain mucosa healing and reduce BRONJ risk. Aim. To describe a dental extraction PRP enriched protocol adopted in a patient treated with aminobisphosphonate in order to evaluate the healing of the post-extraction alveolar site. Case report. An osteoporotic woman (71 yrs), treated with alendronate per os for 10 years and suspended from 1 year, currently with vitami…
Evaluating the Effectiveness of Modelling-Oriented Workshops for Engineering Undergraduates in the Field of Thermally Activated Phenomena
2017
Two 20-h modelling-based workshops focused on the explanation of ther- mally activated phenomena were held at the University of Palermo, Italy, during the Academic Year 2014–2015. One of them was conducted by applying an inquiry-based approach, while the other, still based on laboratory and modelling activities, was not focused on inquiry. Seventy-two students belonging to the Undergraduate Program for Chemical Engineering attended the two workshops. The related content was focused on an à la Feynman unifying approach to thermally activated phenomena. Question- naires were administered to the students of both groups, before and post instruction. Responses were analysed using k-means cluster…
Adaptation and Validation of the Spanish Version of the Instrument to Evaluate Nurses’ Attitudes Toward Communication With the Patient for Nursing St…
2021
Communication is essential to quality of care and patient satisfaction. It has been linked to positive patient outcomes, increased engagement, improved health outcomes and safe practices. Given these benefits and the association between attitudes and behaviours, as behaviours can be predicted by studying attitudes, assessing nursing students' attitudes toward patient communication is critical as future nursing professionals. For this purpose, the main aim of this study was to adapt and validate an instrument to measure nurses´ attitudes towards communication (ACO) for nursing students. The attitudes towards communication with patients were analyzed. Then, differences in the dimensions of th…
The Effects of Low-frequency Vibration on Aligner Treatment Duration: A Clinical Trial
2021
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of an orthodontic tooth movement acceleration device (AcceleDent, OrthoAccel Technologies, Houston, Texas) when used during an aligner treatment. Materials and Methods: Adult patients who began an aligner treatment (Lineo, Micerium Lab, Avegno, Italy) were allocated to two treatment groups. The first one (Group A), with a 7-day aligner change regimen, used the AcceleDent device for 20 min per day, whereas the second one (Group B) changed the aligners every 14 days and did not use any device. The registered outcomes were the possibility of completing the treatment, the number of aligners needed and treatment duration in t…
