Lack of association of the -463 G/A myeloperoxidase promoter polymorphism with Behcet's disease in Italian patients.

2007

Objective. To investigate potential associations between the � 463G/A myeloperoxidase (MPO) promoter polymorphism and susceptibility to, and clinical expression of, Behcet's disease (BD). Methods. One hundred and seventy-five Italian patients who satisfied the International Study Group criteria for BD and 235 healthy age- and sex-matched blood donors were genotyped for the �463G/A promoter polymorphism of the MPO gene by molecular methods. The patients were subgrouped according to the presence or absence of clinical manifestations. Results. The distribution of allele and genotype frequencies of the MPO �463A/G polymorphism did not differ significantly between the BD patients and the healthy…

Late onset of unilateral optic disk edema secondary to treatment with imatinib mesylate

2017

Key Clinical Message Prompt ophthalmology evaluation and immediate imatinib suspension should be suggested at any time of tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy in patients with visual deficit, as it may be a clinical manifestation of optic disk edema, and suspension may help in prompt recovery.

Behavioural adaptations of argulid parasites (Crustacea: Branchiura) to major challenges in their life cycle.

2015

Fish lice (Argulus spp.) are obligate ectoparasites, which contrary to most aquatic parasites, retain the ability to swim freely throughout the whole of their life. In fish farms, they can quickly increase in numbers and without effective control cause argulosis, which results in the reduced growth and survival of their fish hosts. The morphology of Argulus spp, including their sensory organs, is suitable for both parasitism and free-swimming. By spending a considerable amount of time away from their host, these parasites risk being excessively dispersed, which could endanger mating success. Here we present a review of recent studies on the behaviour of Argulus spp, especially the aggregati…

Influence of greenhouse volume/area ratio on soil solarization efficiency

2008

Soil temperature under plastic cover is function of incoming radiation and thermal characteristics of the mulching material and the soil, but it could be also affected by greenhouse characteristics (structure, cover, Volume/Area ratio). The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects of different greenhouse unitary volumes and different plastic mulching on soil temperature and soil solarization efficiency. The experiment was carried out in nonheated greenhouses covered with low density transparent polyethilene (PE), located at the experimental field of AAT Department of Palermo University, Italy (138° 7' N, 13° 22' E). Four Volume/Area (V/A) ratios were tested: 1.5 - 2.0 - 2.5 - 3.0. I…

Gestione ecocompatibile delle infestanti nel finocchio da seme (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.)

2009

Nelle coltivazioni officinali, l'adozione di tecniche a basso impatto ambientale (tra cui la produzione in regime di agricoltura biologica) costituisce una scelta quasi obbligata per consentire al prodotto un'adeguata competitività sui mercati nazionali ed esteri. In quest'ambito, gli evidenti effetti che le infestanti esercitano sulla produzione e sui suoi parametri qualitativi pongono la gestione delle infestanti tra i principali nodi dell'agrotecnica delle colture officinali. Nel quadriennio 2004 -2007, il DAAT dell'Università di Palermo ha pertanto svolto una serie di sperimentazioni in campo tendenti a verificare l'efficacia contenitiva e gli effetti sulla coltura di alcune tecniche di…

Latex allergy in dentistry: clinical cases report

2010

Generally natural rubber latex (NRL) allergy is detected after some exposition to the material. As NRL is com- monly found in different materials used daily in dental clinic, the allergy can be manifested in the pediatric dentistry clinic. The first clinical manifestation can be smooth but also severe, therefore it is important to know different manifestations and how to prevent them. Objective: Report two clinical cases of natural rubber latex allergy in children and to present the safety measures that must be taken during clinical assistance, as using metallic saliva ejector, vinyl gloves for the treatment procedures and as an option to rubber dam. Cases Report: Case 1- Patient presented …

Riflessioni "a margine". Il workshop "Sul margine dell'Orto Botanico di Palermo" dal punto di vista di una storica dell'arte

2020

The paper is the result of a historical research conducted during the Architecture workshop "Sul margine dell'Orto Botanico di Palermo. Spazi per Visiting Professor" ("On the edge of the Botanical Garden of Palermo. Spaces for Visiting Professor"), organized from 24 to 27 September 2018 by the Professors of the University of Palermo Andrea Sciascia, Giuseppe Di Benedetto, Giuseppe Marsala and Antonino Margagliotta and included in the teaching activities of the PhD in Architecture, Arts and Planning. It consists of a descriptive part of the Manifesta12 interventions – the prestigious nomadic Biennial of contemporary art whose last edition took place in Palermo – at the Botanical Garden. This…

L'immagine della monarchia e il ruolo del Senato nelle feste per S. Rosalia a Palermo: apparati, architetture e spazio urbano nel XVII secolo

2012

La festa barocca a Palermo costituisce l’alter ego effimero e occasionale del processo di monumentalizzazione, graduale e complesso, della città: entrambi obbediscono alle stesse esigenze di ufficialità e magnificenza, da soddisfare obbligatoriamente nell’ottica di una città capitale. L’autorevole regista delle grandi manifestazioni ufficiali è il Senato palermitano, al quale come massima istituzione della città è affidata in genere la responsabilità sia dell’organizzazione materiale, sia dell’elaborazione culturale del programma celebrativo, in particolare della festa annuale in onore di S. Rosalia. In Palermo the baroque festival is the ephemeral and occasional alter ego of monumentalisat…
