Valutazione di impatto di linee guida per l'accesso alle prestazioni di eco(color)doppler: l'esperienza della regione Emilia-Romagna
No full textNegli ultimi decenni il tema dei tempi d'attesa e delle liste d'attesa per le prestazioni sanitarie ha acquisito una rilevanza sempre crescente nell'ambito dei sistemi sanitari a copertura universalistica, divenendo uno dei maggiori motivi di insoddisfazione per gli utenti. Recentemente nella regione Emilia-Romagna sono state avviate diverse iniziative finalizzate a promuovere una gestione clinicamente razionale degli accessi a prestazioni di specialistica ambulatoriale, in particolare le linee guida per l'accesso alle prestazioni di eco(color)doppler degli arti inferiori e dei tronchi sovraortici. Lo studio si propone di analizzare le iniziative condotte a livello aziendale ai fini dell'adozione di queste linee guida e di valutare contestualmente il loro impatto sui tempi di attesa, i volumi di attività e il numero dei pazienti in lista di attesa

Cortisol, prolactin and their immunity correlations in major depressed patients
No full textInvestigated the contribution of age, sex, panic disorder comorbidity, and levels of cortisol and prolactin in mediating the immune alterations found in major depressive episodes (MDEs) among 30 women and 25 men (mean age 43 yrs). Almost half of the Ss also had panic disorder. 55 age- and sex-matched Ss served as controls. Levels of cortisol and prolactin were elevated in female and younger Ss with MDE and in Ss with MDE and panic disorder. Prolactin levels, but not cortisol levels, were elevated in Ss with MDE alone. A significant positive correlation was found in Ss with MDE between cortisol plasma levels and total lymphocyte mitogen response, absolute T suppressors, and cells activated by dihydrotestosterone receptors.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
