Pediatric second primary malignancies after retinoblastoma treatment

2015

Background Children with retinoblastoma carry a high risk to develop second primary malignancies in childhood and adolescence. This study characterizes the type of pediatric second primary malignancies after retinoblastoma treatment and investigates the impact of different treatment strategies and prognostic factors at presentation. Procedure All national patients treated for retinoblastoma at the German referral center with a current age of 6–27 years were invited to participate in a study to characterize late effects. Results Data on pediatric second primary malignancies were recorded from 488 patients. Ten developed a malignancy before the age of 18 years. For children with heterozygous …

Interstitial pregnancy in a patient with ipsilateral adnexal absence: Case report and literature review

2013

Unilateral ovarian absence (UOA) with fallopian tube absence is a rare condition. The true incidence is unknown. Here, we report a case of a woman with left tubal and ovarian absence, undergoing laparoscopy for an ipsilateral interstitial pregnancy (IP). The gestational mass was excided using the purse string technique to achieve better haemostasis. Probable etiologies are discussed and literature reviewed. According to our analysis the reproductive outcome of women affected by this rare anomaly is not compromised. Its impairment should be related to comorbidities or other unexplained causes. © Copyright 2014, CIC Edizioni Internazionali, Roma.

Haploinsufficiency of 16.4 Mb from chromosome 22pter-q11.21 in a girl with unilateral conductive hearing loss.

2009

We present the postnatal diagnosis of a de novo der(18)t(18;22)(p11.32;q11.21)pat, resulting in an unbalanced 45,XX,der (18)t(18;22) karyotype in a girl with conductive hearing loss on the left and ptosis of the right upper eye-lid. Unilateral ptosis was also observed in the patient’s 2 years and 8 months younger sister, who grows noticeably faster and appears to be a much quicker learner. After speech therapy the patient was eventually placed in normal school. The haploinsufficient 16.4-Mb region on chromosome 22pter→q11.21 contains 10 genes as well as many predicted genes, pseudogenes, and retrotransposed sequences with unknown functions. This observation may prove useful for prenatal dia…

Ortodoncia interceptiva: Necesidad de diagnóstico y tratamiento temprano en las mordidas cruzadas transversales

2006

Las mordidas cruzadas corresponden a una maloclusión en el plano transversal del maxilar definiéndose como la alteración en la correcta articulación de las cúspides palatinas de molares y premolares superiores con las fosas de molares y premolares inferiores. Dada la frecuencia de alteraciones transversales que se presentan en la consulta de odontología general, vemos la necesidad de realizar un buen diagnostico diferencial de las mismas para poder adecuar nuestros tratamientos de la forma más eficaz y con los Resultados más estables posibles. Para ello se ha de diferenciar entre compresión esquelética, compresión dentoalveolar y compresión dental ya que estos tres supuestos requerirán trat…

Testing cognition and rehabilitation in unilateral neglect with wedge prism adaptation: multiple interplays between sensorimotor adaptation and spati…

2014

Spatial neglect is a neurological condition characterised by deficits for perceiving, attending, representing, and/or performing actions within their left-sided space, responsible for numerous debilitating effects in everyday life, for poor functional recovery, and for decreased ability to benefit from treatment. Exposure to a right lateral displacement of the visual field (induced by a simple target-pointing task with base-left wedge prisms) is known to directionally bias visuomotor coordination and can be compensated by both sensorimotor adaptation and cognitive processes. Sensorimotor adaptation gives rise to after-effects whose duration is amplified in neglect patients and has been repe…

Attività di impiego e di testing di armi anti-satellite e diritto internazionale

2022

Anti-satellite weapons (ASAT) are one of the major challenges to international security in the «Fourth Domain», namely outer space. This was proved by the test made by Russia in November 2021 and the reaction of the international community. The present testing of said arms against its own satellites, as well as the future and probable operating use of said arms against satellites of other States, raises the problem of their compatibility with international law. In particular, it is being debated in various international fora the legality of ASATs, whose use can generate space debris further congesting terrestrial orbits, thus interfering (and jeopardizing) the activities of other States. Th…
