Gaston Bourquin, fotógrafo y editor
No full textEl texto analiza la trayectoria de Gastón Bourquin, fotógrafo de origen suizo activo en la Argentina entre 1914 y 1950. Su trabajo como fotógrafo y editor lo ubica entre los productores fotográficos más importantes de la primera mitad del siglo pasado. El artículo es el resultado de un trabajo sobre su archivo conservado en el Museo de la Ciudad (y del que se desprendió una exposición curada por los autores, y realizada en 2018 en el mismo museo), materiales del acervo familiar e investigaciones en distintas colecciones particulares y públicas y bibliotecas. Además del texto central del libro, estuvo a cargo de los autores (yo misma y Luis Priamo), la seleccion y edición del material fotográfico y la concepción general del volumen.Fil: Priamo, Luis.

The PRIAMO study: background, methods and recruitment
No full textPRIAMO (PaRkinson And non Motor symptOms) is an epidemiology study aimed to assess the prevalence and incidence of non-motor symptoms (NMS) in patients with parkinsonism. PRIAMO consists of two phases: (1) a transversal assessment of the prevalence of NMS and (2) a longitudinal observation with two follow-up visits at 12 and 24 months to establish the incidence of NMS. A secondary aim of PRIAMO is to study the relationship between NMS and quality of life. Patients with parkinsonism have been evaluated in 59 Neurology Centres widely distributed throughout Italy. PRIAMO has analysed a total of 1307 patients (out of 1325 initially enrolled). We expect that PRIAMO will substantially help to quantify the burden of NMS in patients with parkinsonism
Non-motor symptoms in atypical and secondary parkinsonism: the PRIAMO study.
No full textThe PRIAMO study is a cross-sectional longitudinal observational study aimed at describing epidemiology and evolution of non-motor symptoms (NMS) in patients with different forms of parkinsonism recruited in 55 Italian centres and evaluated over 24 months. In this paper, we are reporting prevalence and clinical characteristics of NMS in patients with atypical and secondary parkinsonism. Out of 1307 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of parkinsonism, 83 patients had vascular parkinsonism (VP), 34 had multiple system atrophy (MSA), 30 had progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), 14 had dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and 11 had corticobasal degeneration (CBD). MSA and DLB had the highest number of NMS domains and symptoms, respectively. Gastrointestinal symptoms, pain, urinary problems and postural instability due to orthostatic hypotension were most frequent in MSA. Sleep disturbances were also common with a prevalence of approximately 70% in all diagnostic groups but CBD (36%). Psychiatric symptoms and attention and memory impairment were frequently observed in all diagnoses but were most prevalent among DLB patients, whereas the prevalence of skin and respiratory disorders was rather low in all forms, ranging between 10 and 30%. Atypical parkinsonism patients also reported a low QoL, with no significant differences among the different forms, whereas PD and VP patients had a better QoL
Cell behaviour on chemically microstructured surfaces
No full textMicropatterned surfaces with different chemical topographies were synthesised in order to investigate the influence of surface chemistry
and topography on cell behaviour. The microstructured materials were synthesised by photoimmobilising natural Hyaluronan (Hyal) and its
sulphated derivative (HyalS), both adequately functionalised with a photorective moiety, on glass substrates. Four different grating patterns
(10, 25, 50 and 100 Am) were used to pattern the hyaluronan. The micropatterned samples were analysed by Secondary Ions Mass
Spectrometry, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy to investigate the chemistry and the topography of the
surfaces. The spectroscopic and microscopic analysis of the microstructured surfaces revealed that the photoimmobilisation process was
successful, demonstrating that the photomask patterns were well reproduced on the sample surface. The influence of chemical topographies
on the cell behaviour was then analysed. Human and 3T3 fibroblasts, bovine aortic and human (HGTFN line) endothelial cells were used and
their behaviour on the micropatterned surfaces was analysed in terms of adhesion, proliferation, locomotion and orientation. Both chemical
and topographical controls were found to be important for cell guidance. By decreasing the stripe dimensions, a more fusiform shape of cell
was observed. At the same time, the cell locomotion and orientation parallel to the structure increased. However, differences in cell behaviour
were detected according to both cell type and micropattern dimensions

No full textUn truncus, molti re. Priamo, Agamennone, Pompeo (Virgilio, Seneca, Lucano)
No full textIl truncus di Priamo in Virgilio alludeva alla morte di Pompeo; così in Lucano il truncus di Pompeo allude a quello di Priamo. Agamennone nell'omonima tragedia senecana muore decapitato, diversamente che nel modello, e anche questa descrizione (forse spunto per Lucano) sembra alludere ai due più celebri corpi.The truncus of Priam in Virgil alluded to the death of Pompey, and the truncus of Pompey in Lucan alludes to that of Priam. Agamemnon, in the homonymous tragedy by Seneca, is beheaded, unlike in the Sophoclean model, and also this description (perhaps inspired by Lucan) seems to allude to the two most celebrated bodies
