L'apporto dell'Istituto tra documenti e protagonisti
No full textSulla base della documentazione conservata nell'Archivio storico dell'Istituto Nazionale di Studi Verdiani, il saggio ripercorre e illustra le diverse tappe in cui l'Istituto stesso si fece partner delle altre istituzioni parmensi per progettare e infine realizzare varie edizioni del Festival Verdi: dalle riflessioni pionieristiche dei primi anni 1980, alle prime edizioni ufficiali del biennio 1989-90, su su fino all'edizione del centenario 2001 fino ai giorni nostri. Anche le figure di singoli protagonisti - Mario Medici, Pierluigi Petrobelli, Andrea Borri, Marcello Conati anzitutto - emergono vivide, per il contributo dato, dai vari documenti inediti citati

Su un caso di infezione congenita da Citomegalovirus
No full textL'infezione congenita da Citomegalovirus (CMV) viene stimata intorno all'1% dei nati vivi ed è per lo più asintomatica in periodo neonatale; infatti nel solo 5% degli infetti è osservabile la forma classica. La mortalità nei soggetti gravemente colpiti può arrivare al 30%. Riportiamo il caso di una bimba giunta alla nostra attenzione perchè in tutta la sua drammaticità è paradigmatico di infezione congenita sintomatica
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of topical mitomycin C in corneal wound healing (CWH) after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in highly myopic eyes.
DESIGN: Prospective, double-masked, randomized clinical trial.
PARTICIPANTS: Seventy-two eyes of 36 patients affected by high (>7 diopters) myopia.
METHODS: In each patient, one eye was randomly assigned to PRK with intraoperative topical 0.02% mitomycin C application, and the fellow eye was treated with a placebo. Postoperatively, mitomycin C-treated eyes received artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months), whereas the fellow eye was treated with fluorometholone sodium 2% and artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity, manifest refraction, and biomicroscopy. Contrast sensitivity was determined using the Pelli-Robson chart. Corneal confocal microscopy documented CWH.
RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 18 months (range, 12-36). No side effects or toxic effects were documented. At 12-month follow-up examination, UCVAs (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) were 0.4+/-0.48 and 0.5+/-0.53 (P = .03) in mitomycin C-treated eyes and corticosteroid-treated eyes, respectively. At 1 year, corneal haze developed in 20% of corticosteroid-treated eyes, versus 0% of mitomycin C-treated eyes. At 12, 24, and 36 months, corneal confocal microscopy showed activated keratocytes and extracellular matrix significantly more evident in untreated eyes (Ps = 0.004, 0.024, and 0.046, respectively).
CONCLUSION: Topical intraoperative application of 0.02% mitomycin C can reduce haze formation in highly myopic eyes undergoing PRK.

Muscle reinnervation—I. Restoration of transmitter release mechanisms
No full textFollowing sciatic nerve crush the restoration of neuromuscular transmission in the extensor digitorum longus muscle of rat proceeds in a well defined manner: 1. (a) as soon as the nerve-muscle contact is reformed, a subthreshold end-plate potential is recorded; no 'non-transmitting stage' is observed; 2. (b) 24hours later muscle action potentials are induced by nerve stimulation; 3. (c) miniature end-plate potentials are absent or very rare at the newly reinnervated end-plates; their frequency returns to normal in about 4 weeks; 4. (d) the frequency is also very much reduced in 30 mM K+ and hypertonic solutions and recovers slowly, in 4 and 5 weeks, respectively, while black widow spider venom is from the beginning as powerful as in normal neuromuscular junctions; 5. (e) at the early stages of reinnervation the Ca2+-dependent release mechanisms are much stronger than control cases, while the Ca2+-independent mechanisms are weaker and recover in 5 weeks. The gradual reassembly and restoration of neurotransmitter release mechanisms of the extensor digitorum longus nerve terminal indicate the complexity of pre-synaptic ending organization
