Vent'anni di attività AIMC per il mosaico contemporaneo
No full textIl VII Congresso dell’Associazione Internazionale Mosaicisti Contemporanei si è svolto a Ravenna, sede dell’Associazione, per volontà del Sindaco e del Comune di Ravenna nell’anno 2000, dopo un’intensa attività a favore dello sviluppo dell’Arte Musiva. E’ stato certamente un evento innovatore poiché ha presentato artisti di più di 40 pesi, Scuole esisenti che insegnano la tecnica del mosaico attuale e la Scuola del Restauro del Mosaico. Il libro congiunge alle schede degli artisti, presenti al congresso, notizie sulla loro attività con relativa foto dell’opera esposta in mostra nei Chiostri Danteschi e almeno un’opera delle Scuole attive in ogni parte del mondo in mostra nei locali del Museo Nazionale. Le relazioni presentate portano dentro le dimensioni profonde di questa arte dall’antichità ad oggi

Simultaneous medial unicompartmental knee replacement and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a narrative review and technical note
No full textBackground and Objective: Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) simultaneously with medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has been suggested as an alternative treatment in patients with ACL deficiency and localized osteoarthritis (OA) in young patients. The objectives of this review were to report the current concepts on the topic and describe an original surgical technique of simultaneous medial UKA and ACL reconstruction. Methods: A literature search was performed on PubMed, including articles written in English until June 2021. The articles regarding ACL reconstruction and UKA were reviewed using the narrative approach. Inclusion criteria: (I) original articles about ACL reconstruction and unicompartmental knee replacement; (II) written in English; (III) involving three or more cases. Two non-blinded authors reviewed the titles and abstracts of each article identified in the literature search. Key Content and Findings: The articles regarding ACL reconstruction and UKA were reviewed using the narrative approach. Conclusions: There is controversial evidence about performing the UKA simultaneously with an ACL reconstruction. Biomechanical and clinical studies show that the benefits of restoring good joint stability outweigh the possible risks associated with performing both surgeries at the same time. With this strategy, it is possible to obtain good clinical results with a high survival rate of the implant and patient satisfaction

Eminentia Fractures
No full textThe surgical treatment for fractures of eminentia intercondylaris of the tibia is a controversial topic. Multiple techniques using different approaches, arthroscopic portals, and fixation methods have been described. The arthroscopic treatment of spine avulsion represents a minimally invasive approach which could both restore knee stability and maintain the native anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), with its innervation and proprioception. Moreover, the arthroscopic approach could be useful to detect and address intra-articular concomitant lesions such as meniscal anterior root avulsion. The aim of this chapter is to present the surgical technique to treat tibial eminentia fractures, using arthroscopic reduction and screw fixation
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Cartilage damage: clinical approach
No full textCartilage damage is a frequent joint affection and may have various etiologies. Degenerative and traumatic lesions are by far prevalent and are not easy to treat due to the characteristics of cartilage tissue, which has poor repair capacity. Nevertheless, clinical management for cartilage damage is based on great therapeutic possibilities that sometimes allow to avoid surgical solutions. Traditional approaches, such as exercise and physiotherapy, are added to new drugs and therapies, such as regenerative medicine, which present increasing evidence of effectiveness
