Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
High-risk patients with mild-moderate left ventricular dysfunction after a previous myocardial infarction. A long-term prognostic data by cardiac magnetic resonance
No full textBackground: Few studies have explored prognosis in patients with previous myocardial infarction (MI) with mild-moderate (MM) left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (D).
The aim of our study was to investigate whether combining LV parameters obtained by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) improves risk stratification of patients with previous MI and MM-LV-D.
Methods: In 418 consecutive patients (63.3 +/- 11.3 years old, female 12.9%) with previous MI, we quantified LVEF, volumes and wall motion score index (WMSI) and measured the infarct extent by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). According to LVEF, patients were considered with normal LVEF (N55%), MM-LV-D (LVEF >30 and <= 55%) and severe (S) LV-D (LVEF <= 30).
Results: During follow-up (median, 39.7 months) cardiac events (cardiac death or appropriate intra-cardiac defibrillator shocks) occurred in 17/99 of patients with S-LV-D, in 15/201 with MM-LV-D, and in only 1/118 of those with normal LV-EF.
After adjustment for age, an extent of LGE >11.3%, a dilated LV (male >112 ml/m(2); female >92 ml/m(2)) and a WMSI >1.59 were associated with adverse cardiac events in patients with MM-LV-D. In patients with MM-LV-D, when each of these 3 factors was observed, the prognosis was worse respect to those with 1-2 factors and no factor (p=0.035 and p=0.004, respectively). Prognosis was similar (p=0.61) between MM-LV-D patients with all 3 factors and those with S-LV-dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS. A multiparametric CMR approach, which includes LGE, dilated LV and WMSI, permits to identify post MI patients with MM-LV-D with a risk of cardiac events similar to those with S-LV-D. Further multicenter studies are needed to confirm our data. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved

The October 31 (Ml 5.4) and November 1 (Ml 5.0) Molise earthquake (southern Italy): first results from geochemistry.
No full textTwo geochemical surveys have been performed in November and December 2002 in the Molise region (southern Italy) and surrounding areas struck by two moderate size earthquakes on October 31 (M_l 5.4) and on November 1 (M_l 5.3). The main goals of this study were: i) to highlight eventual variations either in the physico-chemical features or in the chemistry of thermo-mineral and cold springs (already sampled in 1997) discharging in an area located 50 km far from the epicentral one (Sannio-Matese, Campania region),; ii) to determine the chemical features of the groundwater discharging in the epicentral area, identifying the location and the extension of the various existing aquifers; iii) to collect information about eventual changes occurred in springs and wells (variations in flows, groundwater level in wells, etc.). Moreover, twice a week samplings have been carried out for two months at two important sulphurous springs (Larino spring, in the epicentral area and Telese thermo-mineral spring, in the Sannio area) in order to gather temporal chemical trend during the ongoing seismicity. We sampled a total of 35 sites (8 springs and wells in the Sannio-Matese area and 27 in the epicentral one) measuring in the field: temperature, pH, Eh, electrical conductivity, as well as radon, bicarbonate and H_2S contents. In laboratory, analyses of major, minor and trace elements have been performed, together with dissolved gas compositions. On 10 selected samples δ13C and 87/86Sr analyses are in progress. Data collected in the second survey show, for springs and wells located in the epicentral area, an evident pH and Eh increase (probably they returned to normal pre-earthquake values) together with some chemical variations; on the contrary, springs located in the Sannio-Matese area showed no variations. Local people observed sin-earthquake flow increases and variations in turbidity in two springs discharging in the epicentral area. All detected groundwater changes are discussed either with the seismological features of the two main shocks (depth, style of faulting) or with the geological setting of the hit area
