Tuberculosis among Migrant Populations in Sicily: A Field Report

2021

Background. In the EU, tuberculosis (TB) mainly affects vulnerable people, including migrants. From 2014 to 2017, we have estimated the frequency of both tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) among the migrant population hosted in 41 reception centers in western Sicily (ITaCA network). Materials and Methods. All migrants were consecutively recruited for the screening of TB infection with physical examination and TST in 1,020 migrants and with IGRA in the others 2,690. The screening was carried out 4–8 weeks after landing in Sicily. For all migrants with a positive screening test, chest X-ray and smear examination were performed. LTBI was defined by positivity of TST or IGRA …

Migrazioni ed insediamenti informali: riflessioni sul caso siciliano

2022

Over the last fifty years, many European regions in the Mediterranean area, historically considered as areas of origin of international migration flows, have been transformed into places of reception. At the basis of this mobility is, among many factors, the demand, by a variable and globalised economy, for 'easy' labour, mostly made up of new immigrants, instrumental to that particular local economic system. Analysing the spatial dimension of the phenomenon, it highlights how the inadequacy and insufficiency of reception places and the increase in eviction phenomena contribute to the significant increase in the phenomenon of informal settlements in peripheral urban contexts, making it diff…

Oral contraceptives in the prevention of endometrioma recurrence: does the different progestins used make a difference?

2013

""The primary aim of the study was to analyze the endometrioma recurrence rate in patients who underwent laparoscopic excision followed by postoperative long-term regimen of oral contraceptives (OCs).. . MATERIALS AND METHODS: 168 patients who underwent a conservative laparoscopic surgery for endometrioma, during the period between September 2009 and August 2010 in three university hospitals were studied. A long-term OCs therapy was offered to all women following surgery. Patients were randomly divided into three groups according to different progestins used (desogestrel, gestodene, dienogest). Women who refused a postoperative hormonal therapy served as control. Follow-up visits and transv…

Testaustyön mittaaminen

2005

Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan mittaamisen ongelmallisuutta yleisesti ja erityisesti testausprosessin suorituksessa. Päätavoitteena on löytää käyttökelpoiset mittarit testaustyön mittaamiseen useiden kirjallisuudessa esitettyjen vaihtoehtojen joukosta. Käytettävien mittareiden valinta on tärkeä prosessi, koska mittareiden tehokkuus on merkityksellinen, ei niiden määrä. Huonot mittarit lisäävät kustannuksia projektiin. Hyvät mittarit ovat hyödyllisiä ohjelmistojen kehityksessä ja projektin hallinnassa, mutta ne eivät kuitenkaan automaattisesti johda testauksen ja laadun parantamiseen. Testauksen mittaaminen on vaikeaa, koska ohjelmat ovat monimutkaisia ja subjektiivisten ominaisuuksien mit…
