Clelia Jona, una pioniera nello studio dei protocolli notarili genovesi
No full textIl contributo si propone di mettere in luce sotto il profilo personale, professionale e di
studiosa Clelia Jona Vistoso, vissuta nel secolo scorso, una delle prime donne ad avere indirizzato i suoi studi ai documenti e nello specifico all’edizione dei cartolari notarili genovesi. Ebrea e quindi sottoposta alle leggi razziali, funzionaria d’archivio sospesa e poi renitegrata, per riuscire a cogliere appieno la portata del suo impegno, al di là di quello istituzionale, è necessario ricorrere a notizie indirette. Solo una pubblicazione infatti porta il suo nome, ma a lei è dovuta l’edizione di un protocollo uscito sotto altro autore, e la trascrizione di molti atti notarili, difficilmente quantificabili, che hanno costituito la base di altre pubblicazioniThis paper aims to highlight the personal, professional and scholarly profile of Clelia
Jona Vistoso, who lived in the last century and was one of the first women to focus her studies on documents, specifically the edition of Genoa’s notarial records. As a Jewish individual, she was subjected to racial laws and therefore suspended from her position as an archive clerk, only to be later reinstated. To fully understand the extent of her commitment, which surpassed her institutional obligations, it is necessary to rely on indirect information. Although only one publication bears her name, she was responsible for the edition of a protocol published under a different author and for the transcription of numerous (an unquantifiable number of) notarial acts, which formed the basis of other publications
A case of histological diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii myositis in a person living with HIV
No full text: We report the case of a 58-year-old male with a recent diagnosis of HIV infection admitted for progressive muscular weakness and psychomotor impairment. Cerebrospinal examination documented a mild hyperproteinorrachia, with normal cells count and reduced glycorrhachia. Brain gadolinium-enhanced MRI showed bilateral T2 and FLAIR hyperintensities in the nucleo-capsular region and irregular contrast-enhancement of the globi pallidi and the right putamen. The histologic analysis of a quadriceps biopsy showed several foci of inflammatory infiltrates with concomitant muscular fiber atrophy and degeneration. Scattered intracytoplasmic inclusions were observed in muscle fibers, representing the main pathological feature. A positive PCR for Toxoplasma gondii and a Toxoplasma gondii specific monoclonal antibody immunohistochemical staining confirmed the diagnosis
Clinical management of imported malaria in Italy: results from a national cross-sectional survey in 2015
No full textIn Italy, malaria continues to be one of the most common imported parasitoses; therefore, continuous surveillance of epidemiological data and clinical management is needed. In 2016, the National Institute for Infectious Diseases 'Lazzaro Spallanzani' in Rome promoted a retrospective questionnaire-based survey to assess the clinical management of imported malaria cases in Italy in 2015. The questionnaire was sent to 104 Tropical and/or Infectious Diseases Units in the country, and 37 of them filled out and returned the questionnaires. A total of 399 malaria cases were reported in 2015, mostly caused by Plasmodium falciparum and imported from Africa. Malaria chemoprophylaxis was correctly used by a minority of patients. Most patients presented with uncomplicated malaria and were treated orally. In severe cases, intravenous artesunate or quinine alone or in combination were administered, although one third of these severe cases received oral treatment. This retrospective survey reveals a lack of homogeneity in management of malaria-imported cases in Italy. Improvement of malaria chemoprophylaxis, standardization of clinical management of malaria cases and harmonization of oral and intravenous drug availability are needed throughout the country
Rainerius tunc comunis Cortone notarius. Contributo alla storia del documento comunale a Cortona nella prima metà del XIII secolo
No full textIl saggio approfondisce il rapporto fra notariato e comune di Cortona nella prima metà del XIII secolo. È questo infatti il periodo in cui il comune raggiunge piena maturità politica e istituzionale, grazie anche all’apporto dei professionisti della scrittura locali. In un primo momento la documentazione comunale rimane fedele alle forme della contrattualistica utilizzata nel medesimo periodo per conto e a favore di privati, poi, grazie anche alla ‘comparsa’ del notaio Rainerio/Ranerio, la politica comunale acquisisce maggiore riconoscibilità e capacità di intervento. Lo testimoniano quattro documenti oggi conservati all’Archivio di Stato di Siena: compilati apparentemente per la risoluzione di una controversia tra privati, essi diventano lo strumento attraverso il quale il comune di Cortona coglie l’occasione per formalizzare con Siena un accordo più generale, finalizzato alla tutela del commercio. Autore della documentazione è Ranerio, un notaio sui generis, reclutato molto probabilmente al di fuori del circuito cittadino, ma che ha contribuito in maniera determinante alla genesi di nuove forme documentarie atte a manifestare specifiche esigenze espressive
dell’autonomia comunale cortonese.The article explores the relationship between notaries and the municipality of Cortona in the first half of the thirteenth century. This is in fact the period in which the municipality reaches full political and institutional maturity, thanks also to the contribution of local writing professionals. At first the municipal documentation remains faithful to the forms of contracts used in the same period on behalf of and in favor of private individuals, then, thanks also to the ‘appearance’ of the notary Rainerio / Ranerio, the common policy becomes more recognizable. This is evidenced by four documents now preserved in the Siena State Archive: apparently compiled for the resolution of a dispute between private individuals, they become the instrument through which the
municipality of Cortona seizes the opportunity to formalize a more general agreement with Siena, aimed at protecting the commercial reports between the two cities. Author of the documents is Ranerio, a sui generis notary, most probably recruited outside the city circuit, but who contributed in a decisive way to the genesis of new documentary forms able to express specific expressive needs of the Cortona municipal autonomy
Outpatient treatment of imported uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria: results from a survey among TropNet and GeoSentinel experts for tropical medicine
No full textPlasmodium falciparum malaria (P.f. malaria) is frequently imported to non-endemic countries. Recommendations on outpatient treatment differ largely due to differences in country-level guidelines and even between tropical medicine referral centres within the same country
Variability in malaria prophylaxis prescribing across Europe: A Delphi method analysis
No full textBackground. The indications for prescribing malaria chemoprophylaxis lack a solid evidence base that results in subjectivity and wide variation of practice across countries and among professionals. Methods. European experts in travel medicine, who are members of TropNetEurop, participated in a survey conducted using the Delphi method. This technique alms at evaluating and developing a consensus through iterations of questionnaires, control led feedback, and statistical group responses. Results. A first questionnaire, including questions about controversial issues in prescribing malaria prophylaxis, required responses on a visual scale between 1 and 10. The questionnaire included issues on problematic prescribing, characteristics of drugs, relevance of geography, and importance of insect bite prevention. The repeat questionnaire with the group response from the first round revealed an increasing consensus on most issues. A second survey considered 14 practical scenarios (including two internal standards) and investigated preferred choice of prophylaxis. As significant consensus was noted in 8 of 1.4 scenarios, which did not increase after a second round. The analysis revealed a wide variation in prescribing choices with preferences grouped by region of practice, and a greater willingness to prescribe in northern and southern Europe than in central Europe. The second round showed a 9.5% change of opinion. Conclusions. The Study shows that improving the evidence base on efficacy and tolerability and risk of malaria for prescribing chemoprophylaxis is needed as is further discussion across Europe to achieve harmonization of prescribing practice
Notai e uomini di legge a Pisa tra XI e XII secolo: riflessioni sul profilo culturale di un "ceto" emergente
No full textIl saggio espone i primi risultati di una ricerca volta a gettare luce sulla formazione di un gruppo di giuristi molto attivi a Pisa nei decenni a cavallo tra XI e XII secolo. Nella carenza di fonti giudiziarie risalenti a questo periodo, l’autrice si sofferma a esaminare le sottoscrizioni autografe apposte da questi personaggi in calce ad atti notarili: emergono così i profili di personaggi all’avanguardia e dalla cultura grafica raffinata,
che potrebbero essere riconosciuti come i promotori del rinnovamento giuridico della città tirrenica.The essay presents the first results of a research aimed at shedding light on the education of a
group of jurists who were very active in Pisa in the between the late 11th and early 12th centuries. In the absence of judicial sources dating to this period, the author examines the autographic subscriptions written by these individuals at the end of notarial deeds. From these we can outline the profiles of avant-garde personalities with a refined graphic culture, who can be considered as the promoters of thelegal renewal in Pisa
