No full textLiver transplantation for non-Milan HCC patients
No full textAim: Liver transplantation (LT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)beyond the Milan criteria is still controversial. We investigated whether a policy of selective tumor down staging (DS) and patient prioritization based on clinical predictors might help improve the results of LT for non-Milan patients.
Materials and methods: In January 1997 we set up a prospective trial on LT ± tumor down staging for consenting, adult patients affected with nodular-type HCC. Patients were down staged with either TACE, PEI, and/or RFA in the presence of: centrally-sited nodule(s), alpha-feto-protein serum levels ≥ 200 ng/ml, tumor grading ≥ G3, wait list times ≥ 3 months, and ineffective down staging while on wait list. Within the same UNOS status category patients were prioritized as follows: HCC > non-HCC; outside Milan > within Milan; centrally-sited > peripheral nodule(s), serum AFP levels, time on wait list, and ineffective > effective DS. Objective measures were: total patients enrolled; drop out rate; transplant rate; post-transplant recurrence rate, overall and disease-free survival rates. Data were analyzed within one year of last enrolment on an intent-to-treat basis.
Results: Until October 2004 a total of 198 patients (125 Milan; 73 non-Milan) were enrolled in the current trial and 161 (81.3%) were transplanted at a median of 139 days within wait listing (112 Milan; 49 non-Milan). One, 5, and 8-year patients’ survival rates (Kaplan-Meier) were 88.6%, 82.7%, and 74.5%, respectively. When censoring for unrelated deaths, 1, 5 and 8-year survival rates were 98.9%, 89.3%, and 89.3% in Milan patients versus 95.6%, 85.9% and 85.9% in non-Milan patients (Cox regression p = 0.4). One, 5, and 8-year disease-free survival rates were 97%, 87.5%, and 87.5% in Milan patients versus 90.7%, 67%, and 67% in non-Milan patients (Cox regression p = 0.02).
Conclusions: A policy of tumor down staging in association with patient prioritization based on clinical predictors may provide favorable results for HCC patients beyond the Milan criteria

Urban change and geographies of production in North East Milan
No full textThis contribution challenges – as does the book as a whole – a unified and
closed conceptualization of Milan meant as Milan municipality, a set and
limited jurisdictional level. This chapter will help to highlight the growing
integration processes and contentious territorialities that renovate the transscalar
relationship between the Milan urban region and Milan municipal
area. The socio-spatial effects of urbanization don’t just
weaken with distance from the centre to some outer boundary. This multiscalar
spread of regional urbanization is almost impossible to recognize in a
conventional metropolitan perspective
Museums for the Environment and for Territorial Areas. From Museum as Cultural Identity to Museum as a driving force for Socio-Economic Development – Experiences and results in Northern Italy (1989-2009)
No full textby A. Maahsen-Milan
The end of the first decade of the Third Millennium provides an appropriate moment for reconsidering the far-reaching debate about museum institutions which began and was developed in Italy from the mid-1950s to the end of the century, and to assess its outcome. The experiences were developed on the basis of a long period of theoretical and professional investigation into questions involving the museum environment and its territorial area.
This brief presentation – prepared jointly with Professor Architect Agostino Magnaghi, of Turin Polytechnic – is based on subsequent evaluations of three museums dedicated to the Italian environment and to the local area.
These are the Museo della Montagna (Mountain Museum, from. A. Magnaghi, at the Fortress at Exilles), the Museo Civico della Laguna Sud (Civic Museum of the Southern Lagoon, from A. Maahen-Milan, in the city of Chioggia) and the Museo A come Ambiente (“E for Environment” Museum, from. A. Magnaghi, in the city of Turin).
The three cases studied, developed and completed over a twenty year period, though different in terms of geographical position and purpose, are similar in their cultural basis and their aims in terms of education and research. In keeping with the guidelines established with the local authorities and regional administrations, these in fact, promote a concept of “cultural territory” which today seems abstract and poorly identified in its essential purposes

The celebration of 1700 years of the Edict of Milan
Full text linkMilanski edikt (Edictum Mediolanense) je verski tolerančni edikt iz leta 313, ki je izenačil kristjane v Rimskem cesarstvu s pripadniki drugih verstev, kar je zanje pomenilo svobodo verovanja in posledično prekinitev preganjanja. ʺ Jubilej je danes pomemben za ves krščanski svet in za vse vesoljstvo. Letos sta ga obeležili dve mesti: Milano v Italiji, kje je bil edikt podpisan in objavljen, ter Niš v Srbiji, antični Nais (Naissus), mesto, v katerem je bil februarja leta 272 ali 273 rojen cesar Konstantin.The edict of Milan( Edictum Mediolanense) is a religious tolerance edict in 313, which equaled the Christians in the Roman Empire with members of other religions, which for them meant the freedom of belief and the resulting suspension of persecution. The Jubilee is now important for the whole Christian world and for all universe. This year it celebrated the two cities: Milan in Italy, where was signed and published an edict, and Niš (Nish) in Serbia, the antique Nais or Naissus, the city in which the emperor Constantine was born in February in the year 272 or 273
