Nuove voci di “Nuova enciclopedia”
Il saggio ricostruisce il progetto di uno dei più importanti volumi di Alberto Savinio, Nuova enciclopedia, attraverso la corrispondenza con l'editore Valentino Bompiani, e i materiali inediti presenti nel Fondo Savinio dell'Archivio Contemporaneo A. Bonsanti del Gabinetto G.P. Vieusseux di Firenze, e pubblica due delle sei voci inedite in Appendice al Testo: Camera d'albergo, e Cane
Gadda e Carducci
Il saggio si occupa del rapporto assai poco indagato fra Gadda e Carducci,indicato dallo stesso autore lombardo come uno dei pilastri, con Manzoni e d'Annunzio, della propria formazione letteraria
Alfonso Nitti, alias Georges Ohnet
Il contributo individua un'allusione al romanzo di Georges Ohnet Il padrone delle ferriere all'interno di Una vita di Italo Svevo
SITH: a 16-channel ASIC for SiPMs Readout in Hadrontherapy Applications
In hadrontherapy treatments, charged particles deposit a high and localized dose in the tumor volume. Detection of secondary radiations like Prompt Gammas (PG) can be used to monitor the dose profile falloff position, increasing the precision of this technique. In this work we present the design of SITH: an ASIC developed for the readout of Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) coupled with scintillators used in this application. PG characteristics set specific requirements for the front-end electronics such as the capability to process up to 5nC input charge (energy up to 8MeV), timing resolution better than 1ns (e.g. for scattering correction), multiple triggering logic and potential for neutron/photon discrimination. We report an overview of the principal electronic stages and simulation results
Vendita di döner kebab nell’area lucchese: risultati dell’attività di sorveglianza.
In this study the results of surveillance activity on doner kebab retailed on the Lucca area are reported. Ten kebab shops were inspected by health officers and food samples, including raw kebab, cooked kebab and sandwiches with kebab, were submitted for microbiological examinations. During surveillance activity some hygiene problems and difficult application of control plan were found. The microbiological analyses showed that doner kebab retailed in Lucca area had acceptable hygienic quality, but further inspections are necessary to improve the hygienic conditions of kebab shops
Outcome of transformed follicular lymphoma worsens according to the timing of transformation and to the number of previous therapies. A retrospective multicenter study on behalf of Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL)
Optimal treatment for transformed follicular lymphoma (tFL) is not fully defined. Clinical characteristics and treatments that impact on post-transformation outcome of 176 biopsy-proven tFL were analysed. Transformation occurred at initial diagnosis in 52% (Group 1) and after a FL diagnosis in 48% (Group 2). Five-year overall survival was 84% for Group 1 and 51% for Group 2 (P < 0·001). In Group 1, 5-year progression-free survival was superior after rituximab maintenance compared to observation only (94% vs. 53%, P = 0·024). In Group 2, an inverse trend was found between survival and both a higher number of pre-transformation treatment lines and a short time-to-transformation
Population-based outcome analysis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in people living with HIV infection and competent individuals.
The prognostic factors and outcome of 58 acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (AR-DLBCL) patients from the Swiss HIV Cohort Study, diagnosed from 2004 to 2011, were compared with those of 326 immunocompetent (IC)-DLBCL from the Hematology Division of the Amedeo Avogadro University (Italy) and the Oncology Institute of Southern Switzerland. Median follow-up was 6 years; 5-year overall survival (OS) was 68% (95% CI: 63%-73%) in IC-DLBCL and 63% (95% CI: 49%-75%) in AR-DLBCL (P = .220). The acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related lymphoma international prognostic index predicted OS in AR-DLBCL. Among 148 patients younger than 61 years (40 AR-DLBCL and 108 IC-DLBCL) treated with RCHOP/RCHOP-like regimens, 20 IC-DLBCL and 9 AR-DLBCL patients died and OS was not significantly different. A higher proportion of early deaths occurred in the AR-DLBCL: indeed, 1-year OS was 94% (95% CI: 87%-97%) in IC-DLBCL and 82% (95% CI: 66%-91%) in AR-DLBCL patients. After rituximab and active antiretroviral therapy introduction, AR-DLBCL and IC-DLBCL patients treated with curative intent have similar long-term survival
Le Rime Morali e una selezione della Lira del Cavalier Marino: edizione critica e commento
La tesi si divide in diverse sezioni:
- introduzione alle Rime di Giovan Battista Marino, seguite da un intervento specifico sulle Rime Morali, delle quali vengono tracciate la composizione, la struttura e le connessioni interne
- analisi delle Rime Morali: presentata da un breve cappello introduttivo con notazioni di metrica e lessico; seguita da un apparato critico (genetico e positivo); accompagnate da un commento finale nel quale si rintracciano i modelli, le fonti e le intenzioni di Marino
- introduzione alla Lira
- selezione di quattro sonetti della Lira e analisi degli stessi secondo lo schema adottato per le Rime Morali: cappello introduttivo, apparato critico (genetico e positivo) e, infine, commento
- esperimento della riproduzione genetica di un manoscritto
- conclusion
