Oral manifestations of eating disorders: a critical review.
2008
Background: Eating disorders (ED) are a group of psychopathological disorders affecting patient relationship with food and her/his own body, which manifests through distorted or chaotic eating behavior; they include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and ED not otherwise specified and may be burdened with life-threatening complications. As oral manifestations of ED can occur in many phases of disease progression, they play a significant role in assessment, characterization and prognosis of ED. Methods: Mucosal, dental, and salivary abnormalities associated with ED have been reviewed. Relations between oral menifestations and pathogenesis, management and prognosis of ED have been critically…
Chronifizierte paranoid-halluzinatorische Psychose als Erstmanifestation einer HIV-Infektion?
2008
In a 36-year-old patient an acute onset of psychosis occurred, probably due to HIV infection. For one year HIV-infection with reduced T4/T8 ratio had been known without clinical manifestation (stage IV B of the CDC-classification). He developed chronic delusional hallucinations, which persisted for more than one year in spite of adequate psychoactive drug therapy. So far AIDS-related dementia has not become evident. Focal lesions caused by opportunistic infections or tumour were excluded by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The latter revealed several small lesions and the brain scan showed a nonhomogeneous pattern of cerebral blood flow. CSF-examination disclosed a mild l…
Musculoskeletal manifestations of childhood cancer and differential diagnosis with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (ONCOREUM): a multicentre, cross-sec…
2021
Summary Background Presenting symptoms of childhood cancers might mimic those of rheumatic diseases. However, the evidence available to guide differential diagnosis remains scarce. Preventing wrong or delayed diagnosis is therefore important to avoid incorrect administration of glucocorticoid or immunosuppressive therapy and worsening of prognosis. As such, we aimed to assess the prevalence and characteristics of presenting musculoskeletal manifestations in patients at cancer onset and to identify the factors that differentiate childhood malignancies with arthropathy from juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Methods We did a multicentre, cross-sectional study at 25 paediatric haemato-oncology cen…
Synthesis of the Data on COVID-19 Skin Manifestations: Underlying Mechanisms and Potential Outcomes
2021
Abstract The incidence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related skin manifestations has progressively grown, in parallel with the global severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spreading. The available evidence indicates that cutaneous signs are heterogeneous and can be divided as follows: a) erythematous rashes, b) lesions of vascular origin, c) vesicular rashes, d) urticarial rashes, and e) acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP), erythema multiforme (EM) and other polymorphic/atypical reactions. Most cutaneous manifestations appear simultaneously or after respiratory and/or systemic symptoms such as fever, even if rarely urticaria has been reported as…

More than meets the Eye : Towards a Post-materialist Model of Consciousness
2016
Commonly accepted models of human consciousness have substantial shortcomings, in the sense that they cannot account for the entire scope of human experiences. The goal of this article is to describe a model with higher explanatory power, by integrating ideas from psychology and quantum mechanics. In the first part, the need for a paradigm change will be justified by presenting three types of phenomena that challenge the materialistic view of consciousness. The second part is about proposing an alternative view of reality and mind–matter manifestation that is able to accommodate these phenomena. Finally, the ideas from the previous parts will be combined with the psychological concepts deve…
Il giudice disobbediente nel terzo millennio
2020
Il tradizionale quesito del rapporto fra diritto positivo, coscienza del giudice e suo ruolo pubblico viene discusso rispondendo brevemente a domande relative a tre ambiti problematici : la rilevanza della Costituzione, l'incidenza del piano sovranazionale della tutela dei diritti, i limiti delle esternazioni del giudice e della sua possibilità di disapplicare una legge ingiusta. The traditional question of the relationship between positive law, the conscience of the judge and his public role is discussed by briefly answering questions relating to three problematic areas: the relevance of the Constitution, the impact of the supranational level of protection of rights, the limits of the judg…

il volto della morte: le maschere funerarie della sepoltura dei preti morti di Gangi
2014
riassunto — Le mummie moderne e il signifcato recondito della doppia sepoltura nelle culture mediterranee moderne sono da tempo ampiamente dibattuti. In questo lavoro si discute di una particolare “collezione” di corpi di ecclesiastici, mummifcati ed esposti in un comune montano madonita della Sicilia, Gangi. I corpi, principalmente risalenti al XIX secolo, mummifcati per colatura come nella tradizione del tempo e vestiti degli abiti talari, sono esposti nel piano sottostante della Chiesa Madre, in quella che nella tradizione è detta la “fossa dei parrini” (fossa dei preti). Le mummie, a differenza di altri siti siciliani e mediterranei, sono altresì corredate di sonetto commemorativo e di …
