Periscope endograft technique to revascularize the left subclavian artery during thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
2013
Purpose: To present early and midterm results of the periscope endograft (PG) technique to maintain left subclavian artery (LSA) blood flow in thoracic endovascular aortic repairs (TEVAR) involving zone 3. Methods: From April 2010 to January 2013, 14 consecutive high-risk patients (11 men; mean age 7068 years, range 56–87) underwent TEVAR with the PG technique for 10 thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA), 2 traumatic aortic ruptures, and 2 aortic dissections without a suitable landing zone (.2 cm distal to the LSA). Five procedures were performed emergently for rupture (3 TAAs and the 2 trauma cases). Two patients had a periscope deployed in an aberrant right subclavian artery. The periscope endo…
Pęknięty tętniak aorty zstępującej - duże wyzwanie dla niedużego ośrodka chirurgii naczyniowej
2018
Pacjentka, lat 76, została skierowana do Uniwersyteckiego Szpitala Klinicznego w Opolu z powodu podejrzenia rozwarstwienia aorty wstępującej i tamponady osierdzia. Przy przyjęciu chora w stanie ogólnym skrajnie ciężkim, z objawami głębokiego wstrząsu, niestabilna hemodynamicznie oraz wentylowana mechanicznie. W wykonanym doraźnie badaniu angio-TK stwierdzono rozwarstwienie aorty zstępującej z pękniętym tętniakiem w jej środkowym i dolnym odcinku oraz duży krwiak lewej jamy opłucnowej. Ze względu na znaczną szerokość aorty zstępującej, nawet w jej początkowym odcinku oraz aorty brzusznej powyżej pnia trzewnego do zaopatrzenia tętniaka potrzebne są dwa elementy stentgraftów o średnicy 46 mm. …
Voltammetric Detection of Lead(II) Using Amide-Cyclam- Functionalized Silica-Modified Carbon Paste Electrodes
2009
2-(4,8,11-Triscarbamoylmethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradec-1-yl)acetamide (TETAM) derivatives bearing 1, 2, or 4 silylated arms have been synthesized and grafted to the surface of silica gel and ordered mesoporous silica samples. The resulting organic-inorganic hybrids have been incorporated into carbon paste electrodes and applied to the preconcentration electroanalysis of Pb(II). The attractive recognition properties of these cyclam derivatives functionalized with amide pendent groups toward Pb(II) species and the highly porous structure of the adsorbents can be exploited for the selective and sensitive detection of the target analyte. Various parameters affecting the preconcentration a…
Impacto del quimerismo hematopoyético precoz en el injerto tras trasplante alogénico de progenitores de sangre de cordón umbilical de donante no empa…
2013
El trasplante de sangre de cordón umbilical (TSCU) ha experimentado un auge muy importante en los últimos años como alternativa a la médula ósea y sangre periférica, debido a la dificultad de encontrar donantes altruistas de estas fuentes de progenitores hematopoyéticos. Los datos clínicos disponibles hasta la fecha muestran una supervivencia libre de enfermedad similar a la observada con el trasplante de médula ósea (TMO) o sangre periférica (TSP). Sin embargo, como consecuencia de la baja dosis celular contenida en la SCU, la tasa de fallo de injertos es más elevada y el tiempo hasta la recuperación de la neutropenia más prolongado. Gran parte de la investigación en el terreno del TSCU se…
Outcome Analysis From a Multicenter Registry on Unibody Stent-Graft System for the Treatment of Spontaneous Infrarenal Acute Aortic Syndrome (MURUSSI…
2022
Purpose: This study reports the outcomes from a Multicenter Registry on unibody stent-graft system for the treatment of spontaneous infrarenal acute aortic syndrome (MURUSSIAS registry). Materials and methods: The retrospective MURUSSIAS registry included spontaneous infrarenal acute aortic dissection (IAAS) managed with the unibody stent-graft system (AFX endovascular AAA system; Endologix Inc., Irvine, California) outside the current instruction for use. IAAS considered aortic dissection (AD), intramural hematoma (IMH), and penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU). Indications to IAAS treatment were symptoms, associated dilated abdominal aorta (>3 cm), rapidly-growing (>0.5 cm/6 months) aorta…
Wartości edukacyjne i wychowawcze w „niezależnych” grach wideo
2017
In the second decade of the XXI century we can observe a new trend in videogames industry - development of independent games, often called indie. These games tend to bring back long forgotten and lost for the gamę media trends and aspects, like punishing difficulty, some less popular gamę genres like RTS’s and educational values, that were dropped by major gamę developers around the year 2000. This gamę present us with a great variety of themes and mechanics, that themselves give us opportunity of using games in education. They can of course be informative, but this is not merely enough to be usable in education but thankfully they, as games, present us with unique features for this media -…
Can structural and bioactivity gradients mitigate intima hyperplasia on a small diameter tissue-engineered vascular graft?
Human Papillomavirus Types 16, 18, and 31 Share Similar Endocytic Requirements for Entry
2013
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus type 18 (HPV18), one of the HPVs with malignant potential, enters cells by an unknown endocytic mechanism. The key cellular requirements for HPV18 endocytosis were tested in comparison to those for HPV16 and -31 endocytoses. HPV18 (like HPV16 and -31) entry was independent of clathrin, caveolin, dynamin, and lipid rafts but required actin polymerization and tetraspanin CD151, and the viruses were routed to the same LAMP-1-positive compartment. Hence, the viruses shared similar cellular requirements for endocytic entry.
Internationalisation in Crafting Workshops : Experiences in an Action Research Project, 2018-2019
2021
The ‘Crafting Workshops’ initiative merges internationalisation and craft education into an action research and development project. The activities in the workshops were grounded in the concepts of internationalisation at home and cultural well-being, and the action was intended to take advantage of peer learning in teacher education through actual craft making in multinational groups. Finnish student teachers acted as instructors in workshops where participants were international exchange students from several countries; the working language was English. Action research combines science and practicality, and we aimed at influencing on the research object and its activities in a developing …
