Multiculturalità e Sport come Strumento di Integrazione
Il presente lavoro si pone l’obiettivo di analizzare, prima di tutto, gli elementi e le caratteristiche di una società, la nostra, sempre più multiculturale e di capire come e in che misura lo sport possa essere considerato uno strumento di integrazione.
Il termine multiculturalismo descrive una situazione in cui sono contemporaneamente presenti gruppi di persone di origini, tradizioni e culture differenti. Non è sicuramente un fenomeno nuovo, anche se negli ultimi anni ha conosciuto un forte sviluppo, in seguito alla crescita dei movimenti migratori, ma “rivoluzionario” è considerare lo sport, spesso vissuto come attività da svolgere semplicemente nel tempo libero, come linguaggio universale capace di unire e non dividere pensieri, colori della pelle, etnie, generi diversi.
Lo sport a tal proposito permette una comunicazione trasversale tra tutti i popoli, le religioni, ed etnie

The postoperative prevention of deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism with defibrotide versus heparin-calcium: a randomized clinical multicenter study of 1296 patients undergoing major abdominal surgery
Postoperative thromboembolic complications do present an underestimated problem whenever their detection simply relies upon individual clinical judgement. Major abdominal operations are at increased risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), mostly in advanced age, overweight subject, and in patients with cardiac or malignant diseases, or with previous venous diseases. Such patients may benefit from a peri- and postoperative prophylaxis with chemical or mechanical procedures, as a recent meta-analysis seems to suggest. In our experience, a randomized, multicentric clinical trial with defibrotide (DF) versus calcium-heparin (CH) was realized with the aim of evaluating their effectiveness and side effects in the prophylaxis of PE and DVT after major abdominal surgery; 1296 patients were randomly assigned to i.v. DF (400 mg.) or subcutaneous CH (0.2 ml. = 5000 U.I.) given one hour prior to operation and twice daily for seven days postoperatively. Definitive evaluation was carried out on 1212 patients (610 patients in DF and 602 in CH group, respectively) who completed the prophylaxis and monitoring schedule acceptably. One PE (0.16%) and 38 DVT (6.2%) were detected in DF group while 2 PE (0.33%) and 40 DVT (6.6%) were reported in CH treated patients. Post-operative blood loss was 578 +/- 150 cc. (median +/- S.E.M.) in DF group and 604 +/- 123 in CH group (p = n.s.). Wound hematoma was observed in 69 patients (5.7%): 20 (3.2%) in DF and 49 (8.1%) in CH group of patients (CHI-Square = 12.44; p = 0.0005); a significant post-operative decrease of RBC, WBC, Platelet count, and Fibrinogen was computed in both groups (p less than 0.01)
