Identification of normal and pathological posterior inter-malleolar ligament with dedicated high-field vs low-field MRI. A pilot study
2015
AIM the aim of the study was to determine an objective measure of detection of posterior inter-malleolar ligament (PIML) through a magnetic resonance (MRI) of the ankle with two dedicated scanners: high-field (1-Tesla: HMF) and low-field (0.2-Tesla: LMF). METHODS two-hundred subjects were randomly recruited for the study and then divided in two groups (HMF and LMF). We retrospectively evaluated the MRI of the ankle in the two groups of patients. PIML evaluation was performed globally and separately using different scan planes. RESULTS in HMF and LMF, the PIML was identified respectively in 55 and 11% of cases. PIML was classified as "indeterminate" in 28 and 57% of patients, and "absent" in…
Optimization of the Speech Test Material in a Group of Hearing Impaired Subjects: A Feasibility Study for Multilingual Digit Triplet Test Development
2021
Background: The development of the global digit-in-noise test requires optimization of each language version on a group of normal-hearing native-speakers. An alternative solution may be an adaptive optimization during ongoing tests in a group of subjects with unknown hearing impairments. The objective of the research was to compare the optimization results between these groups. Methods: Digit triplets consisting of three pseudo-randomly selected digits were presented in speech-shaped noise at various signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), according to the protocol of the final speech test. Digit-specific and position-specific speech reception thresholds (SRTs) were determined and compared between g…
Enhancing improvisational music therapy through the addition of resonance frequency breathing : Common findings of three single-case experimental stu…
2018
One core characteristic of active music therapy is the facilitation of emotional expression through the creation of music improvisations. In an attempt to further develop this approach, we created an enhanced form of integrative improvisational music therapy by including 10 minutes of resonance frequency breathing (RFB) at the beginning of the sessions. RFB is a type of slowbreathing known for its ability to reduce stress and support emotional regulation. This paper summarizes the common findings of three single-case experimental studies and introduces a provisional model to explain the observed effects of RFB. During the breathing itself, all three clients (two of them healthy and one diag…
Surgical and orthodontic rapid palatal expansion in adults using a modified palatal partial osteotomy technique (ppot): Technique description and cli…
2020
Transversal hypoplasia of the upper maxilla is a frequent condition between malocclusions. The rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is an already consolidated technique for these types of defects. This case report analyzes the outcome of a novel surgical technique that we named TOPP (Partial Palatal osteotomy technique) aiming to provide scientifically proven data over the percentage of relapse and the long-term stability of this type of surgical assisted palatal expansion. A 24 year old male patient with a hyperdivergent class III, presenting the absence of 1.1 due to a teenage trauma and a transversal contraction of the upper arch was selected for the surgery. The mucoperiosteal flap was perfo…
Bacteriophage Adherence to Mucus Mediates Preventive Protection against Pathogenic Bacteria
2019
The mucosal surfaces of animals are habitat for microbes, including viruses. Bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria—were shown to be able to bind to mucus. This may result in a symbiotic relationship in which phages find bacterial hosts to infect, protecting the mucus-producing animal from bacterial infections in the process. Here, we studied phage binding on mucus and the effect of mucin on phage-bacterium interactions. The significance of our research is in showing that phage adhesion to mucus results in preventive protection against bacterial infections, which will serve as basis for the development of prophylactic phage therapy approaches. Besides, we also reveal that exposure to m…
Livelli di rappresentazione del testo nell’edizione del De nomine di Orso Beneventano
2018
Viene presentato l’impianto metodologico e tecnologico dell’edizione critica digitale del De nominedi Orso Beneventano (http://www.unipa.it/paolo.monella/ursus), una proof of concept delle innovazioni metodologiche proposte da Tito Orlandi. Il modello qui sperimentato intende superare la dicotomia tra edizione diplomatica e critica grazie ad un ripensamento profondo, semioticamente fondato, dei livelli di trascrizione e di edizione di un testo. I livelli scelti per questa edizione sono: (1) Livello grafematico, le cui unità minime sono i grafemi, inclusi i segni paragrafematici e le brachilogie sistematiche. Tutti i grafemi individuati dall’editore sono elencati nella Graphemic Table of Sig…
Digitālo mediju ietekme uz 4-6 gadus vecu bērnu attīstību
2022
Mūsdienās tehnoloģijas un digitālie mediji strauji ienāk ne tikai pieaugušā dzīvē, bet arī bērna ikdienā jau no ļoti agra vecuma, kas manāmi izmainījušas bērna paradumus. Līdz ar to visbiežāk rodas mūsdienās aktuāls jautājums: Vai mūsdienās digitālās tehnoloģijas uz bērniem atstāj pozitīvu vai negatīvu ietekmi? Anastasijas Osipovas kvalifikācijas darba “Digitālo mediju ietekme uz 4-6 gadus vecu bērnu attīstību” mērķis ir izpētīt digitālo mediju ietekmi uz 4-6 gadus vecu bērnu attīstību. Pētījuma jautājums: Kā digitālie mediji ietekmē 4-6 gadus vecu bērnu attīstību? Kvalifikācijas darba teorētiskajā daļā tiek veikts 4-6 gadus vecu bērnu attīstības raksturojums, mediju vispārīgs raksturojums,…

Master's thesis in Health informatics (HSI500) Background There is an increasing focus on the use of medical distance monitoring to improve the quality of patient care and increase the effectiveness of health care. Digital PRO-based solution is a new service for patients with epilepsy. The digital form the patient fills out is used as the basis for outpatient follow-up. Purpose The purpose of this study is to contribute knowledge to whether patients with epilepsy experience benefits of medical distance monitoring. The problem statement in the study was: "What experiences and thoughts do patients with epilepsy have about the utility of medical distance follow-up?" Selection and methodologyTh…
