Congiure "contro alla patria" e congiure "contro ad un principe" nell'opera di Niccolò Machiavelli
No full textLa congiura è un tema trasversale nell'opera del Machiavelli. All'analisi del discorso 'pedagogico' sulle congiure del cap. 6 del III libro dei Discorsi, l'autrice ha accostato quella delle notazioni pratiche delle Legazioni e Commissarie e poi quella dei racconti di congiure delle Istorie fiorentine : ha rilevato così continuità e differenze di lessico, linguaggio e punti di vista. Alla luce del confronto, da un lato, con altri scritti di contemporanei, dall'altro con le fonti cui il Machiavelli attinge, ha cercato di esaminare lo sviluppo della sua riflessione sulle forme e le prospettive della lotta politica del suo tempo. Ne ha ravvisato un esito significativo per un verso nella sua critica dei topoi retorici del repubblicanesimo antitirannico ; per un altro nella contrapposizione tra la congiura propria del mondo comunale, larga e 'tumultuaria' e quella 'ristretta' del '400-'500, destinata a fallire perché ormai priva del supporto popolare. In ciò si manifesta la presa di coscienza, da parte del Machiavelli, delle nuove condizioni in cui si svolge la lotta politica nel Cinquecento italiano.Fasano Guarini Elena.

Cell-Free Fetal DNA for the Prediction of Pre-Eclampsia at the First and Second Trimesters: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
No full textObjective: A systematic review and pooled analysis was carried out to estimate whether the increase in the quantity of cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) before the onset of pre-eclampsia (PE) can predict the disease using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Method: A comprehensive literature search of the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Knowledge databases was conducted to identify relevant studies that included evaluated cffDNA levels in pregnant women before the clinical onset of PE. A simulation model was generated to calculate the detection rate (DR) of cffDNA for PE, and a random variable was generated using the same number of cases and same statistical measurements of central tendency and dispersion as those reported in the papers considered for the analysis. Simulation of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was also carried out. Results: Four studies (82 cases and 1315 controls) evaluated cffDNA in early-onset PE, with DRs of 18 and 68.8% at 11â13 and 17â28 weeks, respectively, at a false positive rate of 10%. Nine studies (including two considered for early-onset PE) encompassing 376 cases and 1270 controls were available for the evaluation of âany PEâ. At 11â14 weeks no significant DR was found, while at 15â28 weeks the DR was 37%. Conclusion: CffDNA quantification is a marker for predicting the development of both early-onset PE and âany PEâ; however, it can probably only be used from the beginning of the second trimester, otherwise its predictive value is burdened with a DR that is too low or not significant. Due to the heterogeneity and difficulty in interpreting the published data, no conclusion regarding the statistical and clinical relevance, especially for screening âany PEâ, can be made at present

Amnioinfusion: from termination of pregnancy to therapy
No full textAMNIOINFUSION: FROM TERMINATION OF PREGNANCY TO THERAPY
Amnioinfusion or infusion of saline into the amniotic cavity was first used as a
technique for late termination of pregnancy in the 1960s (Jonas and Slate. Obstet
Gynecol.1966;27:494-6). By the mid 1970s, transabdominal amnioinfusion of
hypertonic (20%) saline was the most widely used method of pregnancy termination
after 14 weeks in the US. This technique was associated with around 10% morbidity
including hemorrhage requiring transfusion, retained tissue requiring surgical removal,
infection, coagulopathy, and hypernatremia (Ballard and Ballard. Am J Obstet
Gynecol.1972;114:575-81). There were also risks of intravenous, intraperitoneal, or
intramyometrial injection of the saline and thus amnioinfusion for abortion was
abandoned in the 1980s in favour of prostaglandins (PGE2) which were more efficient
and with fewer side effects.
Miyazaki and Taylor were the first to report on the use of saline amnioinfusion
in 42 patients having repetitive variable or prolonged decelerations that did not
respond to conventional therapy, such as maternal position changes and oxygen
administration (Miyazaki and Taylor. Am J Obstet Gynecol.1983;146:670‐8). The
technique used normal saline or ringers lactate infused transcervically through a
catheter into the uterine cavity, or transabdominally using a 'spinal' needle when
membranes are intact. More recently, transcervical amnioinfusion was proposed for
women presenting with thick meconium staining of the amniotic fluid to reduce the risk
of perinatal death and meconium aspiration syndrome. Although the first results
seemed encouraging (Hofmeyr et al.BJOG.1998;105:304-8), the 2006 UK National
Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) concluded that there was insufficient
evidence to support the practice (www.nice.org.uk › guidance › ipg192) and it has
rarely been used for this indication. More recent data from India have suggested that 1
transcervical amnioinfusion in labour for meconium-stained amniotic fluid can be
performed safely in a setup with limited neonatal care facilities, to decrease the
incidence of caesarean deliveries and improve neonatal outcome (Choudhary and
Bano. Arch Gynecol Obstet.2010;282:17-22).
Amnioinfusion was also used prophylactically in various conditions commonly
associated with oligohydramnios to limit the risk of cord compression or
oligohydramnios-related pulmonary hypoplasia (Figure) (Fisk et al.
BJOG.1992;99:464-8) but was not found to improve neonatal outcomes. Two large
trials have assessed whether infusion of fluid into the amniotic cavity could improve
pregnancy outcome after second-trimester premature rupture of the membranes
(AMIPROM trial Roberts et al.UOG 2014;43:490-9;PPROMEXIL-III trial van Teeffelen
et al. BMC Pregnancy Childbirth. 2014; Apr 4;14:128). The first trial suggested an
improvement in long-term healthy survival after amnioinfusion but neither of these
studies showed a significant better outcome after amnioinfusion. In this issue, De
Ruigh et al. (BJOG 2021) report on the long-term outcome of the PPROMEXIL-III trial.
Overall, of the 14 survivors (all born at a median gestational age of 24 weeks), 71%
had no neurodevelopmental delay. The small sample size of this study does not allow
to draw any definitive conclusions and survival without developmental delay nor
respiratory problems did not differ between the treatment arm and controls with no
amnioinfusion. From termination of pregnancy to therapy, amnioinfusion has still to
find its place in modern obstetrics

Vestire contro : il Dressing Design di Archizoom
No full textDressing Design è un termine coniato dal gruppo Radical fiorentino Archizoom Associati per circoscrivere l’ambito di progettazione di oggetti per l’abbigliamento: gli autori stessi hanno affermato provocatoriamente che “vestirsi è facile perché l’eleganza è morta”, rivelando sin dall’inizio un rapporto ambiguo con la moda.
Alla moda tradizionale e alle sue rigide convenzioni gli Archizoom contrappongono un uso libero e asessuato dell’abito che diventa uno strumento di comunicazione nelle mani dell’utente.
Queste sperimentazioni nascono in concomitanza alle proposte di organizzazione dello spazio abitativo attuate dall’architettura Radicale tra la metà degli anni sessanta e la prima metà del decennio successivo, e sono legate ai cambiamenti che nello stesso periodo interessano la moda e l’industria dell’abbigliamento.
Questa ricerca ha messo in luce l’iter progettuale e le peculiarità delle differenti sperimentazioni sull’abito: dalla fase germinale individuata all’indomani della mostra Superarchitettura e caratterizzata da consonanze con la Body Art, fino ad arrivare alla prima indagine sull’abito inteso quale elementare forma di habitat umano (Nearest Habitat System) da cui scaturisce la collaborazione con Fiorucci, passando per il progetto Vestirsi è facile presentato alla XV Triennale di Milano.
Ne emerge la natura vitale, complessa e talvolta contraddittoria del Dressign Design, nato come riflessione teorica contro la moda e le sue ossessioni e trasformatosi in una proposta progettuale che abbandona le provocazioni e cerca occasioni produttive concrete
