Recent advances of the multipactor RF breakdown in RF satellite microwave passive devices
2016
The main goal of this work is the review of the recent advances in the study of the multipactor RF breakdown phenomenon in RF satellite microwave passive devices for space telecommunication applications developed in the Val Space Consortium. In this work several topics related with the multipactor phenomenon will be discussed.
Anatomia e patologia del labirinto membranoso studio con sequenze RM sensibili al flusso
1994
Nonostante i deludenti esordi nella valutazione delle strutture labirintiche costituenti l'orecchio interno, la risonanza magnetica costituisce oggi, grazie anche al miglioramento dell'hardware e del software disponibili, una modalità diagnostica di grande efficacia non solo nell'analisi della patologia espansiva o infiammatoria coinvolgente il VII ed VIII nervo cranico, ma anche nella valutazione delle alterazioni patologiche del segnale endolabirintico in rapporto a focolai emorragici o, come recentemente dimostrato mediante uso di Gd-DTPA, nell'analisi delle alterazioni a carico della capsula oticanella fase spongiotica dell'otosclerosi. Tuttavia, lo scarso contrasto esistente tra liqui…
Análisis estructural cuantitativo del hueso alveolar trabecular de la mandíbula en tomografía computarizada multidetector: diferencias por tipo y est…
2019
Resumen Antecedentes y objetivo Existe una carencia de metricas cuantitativas de la calidad del hueso trabecular alveolar, factor determinante en implantologia. El objetivo de este estudio es desarrollar una metodologia con tomografia computarizada multidetector para objetivar la calidad del hueso trabecular y establecer diferencias entre los distintos tipos y el estado de las piezas dentarias mediante procesado de imagenes y analisis estructural. Materiales y metodos Se analizan 20 pacientes con exploracion de tomografia computarizada multidetector dental para la valoracion del hueso mandibular y posiciones dentales. El analisis de las imagenes incluyo la segmentacion automatica de la mand…
Comprehensive Analysis of Invasive and Noninvasive Investigation Methods in Peripheral Artery Disease
2019
Abstract Peripheral artery disease of the lower limbs is, in fact, an arterial pathology, by which the blood flow is reduced, due to the obstruction caused by the deposit of atheroma plaques.(1) This deposition occurs slowly, which leads to a slow progression of the disease, and thus, at the onset of symptomatology. The objective of the study was to make a comparison between the invasive and noninvasive paraclinical investigations performed in patients with peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs in the E.C.C.H. Sibiu. In conclusion, between the two investigations (computed tomography angiography and digital subtraction angiography) there are no noticeable differences in the terminal…

UVER and UV index at high altitude in Northwestern Argentina
2016
Measurements of ultraviolet erythemal radiation (UVER) made during two years at three sites located at altitudes over 1000 m a.s.l. in Northwestern Argentina (Salta, San Carlos, and El Rosal) have been used to estimate and analyze the UV Index (UVI) and the cumulative doses at these locations. For the UVER irradiance, data of January (maximum values) and June (minimum values) have been analyzed as representative of the year for all locations. The UVI reaches extreme (> 11) values in > 20% of the analyzed days in Salta (1190 m a.s.l.), while these are reached in San Carlos (1611 m a.s.l.) and El Rosal (3355 m a.s.l.) in > 40% of the analyzed days. Finally, the cumulative doses over an averag…
Environmental radiation alters the gut microbiome of the bank vole Myodes glareolus.
2018
International audience; Gut microbiota composition depends on many factors, although the impact of environmental pollution is largely unknown. We used amplicon sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA genes to quantify whether anthropogenic radionuclides at Chernobyl (Ukraine) impact the gut microbiome of the bank vole Myodes glareolus. Exposure to elevated levels of environmental radionuclides had no detectable effect on the gut community richness but was associated with an almost twofold increase in the Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio. Animals inhabiting uncontaminated areas had remarkably similar gut communities irrespective of their proximity to the nuclear power plant. Hence, samples could be c…
Implant Abutment Cleaning by Plasma of Argon: 5-Year Follow-Up of a Randomized Controlled Trial.
2015
Contamination of implant abutments could potentially influence the peri-implant tissue inflammatory response. The aim of the present study is to assess the radiographic bone changes around customized, platform-switched abutments placed according to the "one-abutment-one-time" protocol, with and without plasma of argon cleaning treatment.Thirty healthy patients with thin gingival biotype (1 mm) and history of periodontal disease received one maxillary implant each. Immediately before abutment connection, patients were randomly assigned to control group (cleaning protocol by steaming) or test group (plasma of argon treatment). Outcome measures were: 1) success rate of implants and prostheses;…
Radiotherapy for the treatment of solitary plasmacytoma: 7-year outcomes by a mono-institutional experience.
2020
Objectives: Solitary plasmacytoma (SP) is characterized by a single mass of clonal plasma cells. Definitive RT can result in long-term local control of the SP. Due to the small number of patients and narrow range of doses, phase III randomized trials are lacking. The aim of this study is to further support the potential use of RT for the treatment of SP. Methods: Clinical data of all patients treated for SP at our Institution between 1992 and 2018 were reviewed. A total of 42 consecutive patients were analyzed. Results: The median follow-up was 84.8 months. Radiation dose did not differ significantly as a function of sex, type of SP (solitary bone plasmacytoma or as extramedullary plasmacyt…
Detection of RET rearrangements in papillary thyroid carcinoma using RT-PCR and FISH techniques - A molecular and clinical analysis.
2019
Abstract Introduction Oncogenic BRAF and RAS mutations as well as multiple known (and yet unknown) RET fusion oncogenes comprise the majority of causative molecular alterations in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Apparently “mutation-negative” PTCs encompass a heterogenous group impeding analysis of prognostic significance of underlying genetics. Material and methods BRAF wild type PTC tissue of 56 patients was analyzed using two established methods: hybrid-specific RT-PCR for the predominant rearrangement RET/PTC1 and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Clinical features of the cases with and without RET rearrangement were compared (patient age, gender, tumor size, focality, lymph …
