Clinical and Confocal Microscopy Study of Plasma Exeresis for Nonsurgical Blepharoplasty of the Upper Eyelid: A Pilot Study.
Dermatologic Surgery, 2018Co-Authors: Elena Rossi, Francesca Farnetani, Myrto Georgia Trakatelli, Silvana Ciardo, Giovanni PellacaniAbstract:BACKGROUND Plasma exeresis is an evolving technique for nonsurgical treatment of several skin conditions. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a noninvasive tool that allows the "in vivo" imaging of the skin. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical improvement and collagen remodeling of the upper eyelid dermatochalasis after plasma exeresis. METHODS Ten patients were subjected to 3 interventions of plasma exeresis. Photographic and RCM images were acquired at T0 (baseline) and T1 (4-6 weeks after final plasma exeresis). Eyelid dermatochalasis was rated as absent, mild, moderate, and severe according to the facial laxity rating scale, at clinical images at T0 and T1. An expert RCM evaluator classified collagen according to the predominant pattern of reticulated, coarse, huddled, or curled at T0 and T1. RESULTS Clinical improvement of 2.6 ratings was observed at clinical evaluation. Collagen was classified as long straight fibers in all cases, according to RCM images. CONCLUSION Plasma exeresis in this pilot study shows promising remodeling effects on the collagen of the upper eyelid, as viewed by RCM, and clinically improved appearance for the patient cohort, without any serious adverse events. This study suggests that plasma exeresis could be a valid solution for eyelid dermatochalasis, but further studies are required.

La Ricezione di Aristotele nel I secolo a.C.: Boeto di Sidone e il suo Commento alle Categorie
'Pisa University Press', 2090Co-Authors: Nastasi GiuseppeAbstract:Boeto di Sidone (I a.C.) è annoverato tra i primi commentatori post-ellenistici di Aristotele. Le fonti lo menzionano soprattutto per il suo Commento alle Categorie, di cui rimangono frammenti e testimonianze negli esegeti tardo-antichi, in particolare in Simplicio. Dopo aver inquadrato il contesto storico-culturale in cui si colloca l'attività di Boeto, la tesi si occuperà di esporre i punti principali della sua esegesi: semantica dei termini semplici e degli enunciati, la nozione di universale, la teoria della sostanza. Boethus of Sidon (fl. I BC) is counted among the first commentators of Aristotle. The only fragments of his Exegesis belong to his Commentary on Aristotle's Categories, which had a relevant influence over Porphyry and the other commentators (especially Simplicius). The thesis starts with a description of the historical context and the method of Boethus' Exegesis. Later, I will consider Boethus' semantics, linguistics, theory of universals, ontology and notion of substance
