Diverse generazioni di lavoratori si sono avvicendate nelle officine di questo C grande complesso industriale, costruendo automobili ma anche motori per aviazione, veicoli commerciali, elettrodomestici. E Rinnovatosi nel tempo per rispondere alle mutate esigenze industriali, nel N 1985 lo stabilimento cessa l'attività produttiva. T Nel 1989 viene bandita la gara internazionale che vedrà trasformarsi Lin- gotto da comprensorio industriale in modernissimo centro polifunzionale. R Sono anni di frenetica attività, durante i quali il progetto dell'Architetto ge- O novese Renzo Piano, che negli anni Settanta ha ideato il Beaubourg di Pari- gi, incontra l'approvazione di architetti e ingegneri di tutto il mondo.

In particular, herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella zoster virus (VZV) infections has been reported as risk factors for AD. The aim of this study was to determine whether or not AD-related biomarkers were changed in patients with HSV or VZV CNS infections. Methods: Nine patients with HSV infection of the CNS, eight patients with VZV complicated by CNS involvement, and eighteen age-matched controls were enrolled. Amyloid β (Aβ)1-42, Aβ1-40, total-tau (t-tau), tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (p-tau), neurolament light chain (NfL), phosphorylated neurolament heavy chain (p-NfH), glial brillary acidic protein (GFAP), and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2) in were measured in cerebrospinal uid (CSF), and NfL in serum.

Life after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1281. 97 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9762-0. Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating disease with mean age of 59 years. SAH accounts for 5% of all stroke and more than one quarter of potential life years lost through stroke. With the advanced neurosurgical methods of today two thirds of the patients survive. We know, however, that various cognitive, psychiatric and physical impairments are common that affect quality of life, social life, and the ability to work in the aftermath of SAH. The overall aim constituting this PhD dissertation is to better understand some of the challenges often faced by those surviving SAH. Two SAH patient cohorts have been studied. The first followed 96 consecutively included patients during the first year after ictus. Spasticity and cognitive impairment was assessed after 6 months and the Swedish stroke register follow-up form was used to investigate family support and the use of medical and social services.

  • Possible Link Between SARS-Cov-2 Infection and Parkinson's Disease
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Possible Link between SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Parkinson’s Disease: The Role of Toll-Like Receptor 4 Carmela Conte Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Perugia, via Fabretti, 06123 Perugia, Italy; [email protected] Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most common neurodegenerative motor disorder character- ized by selective degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) of the midbrain, depletion of dopamine (DA), and impaired nigrostriatal pathway. The pathological hallmark of PD includes the aggregation and accumulation α-synuclein (α-SYN). Although the precise mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of PD are still unknown, the activation of toll-like receptors (TLRs), mainly TLR4 and subsequent neuroinflammatory immune response, seem to play a significant role. Mounting evidence suggests that viral infection can concur with the precipita- tion of PD or parkinsonism. The recently identified coronavirus named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of ongoing pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), responsible for 160 million cases that led to the death of more than three million individuals worldwide. Studies have reported that many patients with COVID-19 display several neurological manifestations, including acute cerebrovascular diseases, conscious disturbance, and typical motor and non-motor symptoms accompanying PD. In this review, the neurotropic potential of SARS-CoV-2 and its possible involvement in the pathogenesis of PD are discussed. Specifically, the involvement of the TLR4 signaling pathway in mediating the virus entry, as well as the massive immune and inflammatory response in COVID-19 patients is explored.

  • 'Blotting-Book Mind': Stratigraphic Approaches to Interdisciplinary Reading And
    ‘The Scholar’s Copy Book’ and the ‘Blotting-Book Mind’: Stratigraphic Approaches to Interdisciplinary Reading and Writing in the Work of Vernon Lee By Sally Blackburn-Daniels Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy August 2018 ‘The Scholar’s Copy Book’ or the ‘Blotting-Book Mind’: Stratigraphic Approaches to Interdisciplinary Reading and Writing in the Work of Vernon Lee By Sally Blackburn-Daniels Abstract: This project examines Vernon Lee’s (1856-1935) assimilation of contemporary models of scientific theory into her own textual output. It does so by bringing attention to Lee’s writing practice as a development of her own understanding of the scientific theory of the mneme, and furthermore, the way in which this understanding then became a framework for her investigation of the mechanisms of textual allusion. The Vernon Lee archive at the British Institute of Florence holds over four- hundred and twenty works previously owned and read by Lee, many of which carry her annotations. These holdings are predominantly scientific works, and provide a bibliographic key to unlocking the references within Lee’s essays, novels, novellas and short stories. This thesis utilizes these texts, and Lee’s marginalia therein, to consider a) the ways in which Lee embraces and embeds scientific discourse within her work, b) her recognition of the evolution of scientific fields and the continuing presence of superseded theories, and c) the ways in which scientific discourse and praxis becomes stratified within Lee’s reading. I argue that Lee’s approach to scientific progression echoes her textual practice: one that charts the succession and development of a discipline in temporal layers within her own works, or in the construction of a hybrid theorem from a multiplicity of theories within a single or across disciplinary boundaries.
