title: World cities before globalisation: the European city network, A.D. 1300–1600. Appendices 2 & 3.

description: Appendices to doctoral thesis. Appendix II: Data fiches (pdf) & Appendix III: Business value matrix (excel spreadsheet).<br>Abstract:This dissertation is a quantitative study of the spatial business strategies of 130 late medieval and 16th-century European commercial and banking firms, the business networks of which have been put together for a structural analysis of the European city network between ca. 1300 and ca. 1600. Concretely this investigation has been carried out through the application of an interlocking network model – specifically developed for the study of the present-day global city network produced by the office networks of business service firms – to this historical case study, in order to challenge predominantly hierarchical conceptualisations of city networks which are often influenced by central place theory. After a methodological section, in which solutions are designed for reconciling the geographical model with the particularities of historical research, a first part of the analysis focuses on agency within the network, identifying and reconstructing the multiple spatial strategies used by the different agents. In a second part the overall structure and dynamics in the network are investigated, revealing the operation of Christaller’s traffic principle, as well as a cyclical variation in emphasis on continental and maritime nodes within the European city network. More generally, this study demonstrates that the functioning of dynamic transnational networks based upon complementarity and cooperation rather than competition is not limited to our contemporary globalised world, but can also be found in particular historical societies.<br>

title: Supplementary Material for: Translation and Validation of a Chinese Version of the Parental Self-Efficacy with Eczema Care Index

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Parental self-efficacy has been found to be a critical determinant of the efficacy of interventions intended to enhance the parental management of childhood eczema. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> The psychometric properties of a translated Chinese version of the Parental Self-Efficacy with Eczema Care Index (C-PASECI) were examined. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The PASECI was translated in a 2-stage process involving both forward and backward translation. Subsequently, the psychometric properties of the C-PASECI were examined in a cohort of 147 Chinese parents or caregivers of children with eczema. Specifically, the internal consistency, 2-day test-retest reliability and construct validity were assessed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The C-PASECI received a Cronbach’s αof 0.97, and the intraclass correlation coefficients of each item ranged from 0.93 to 0.99. Negative correlations were observed among the C-PASECI, Children’s Dermatology Life Quality Index and Scoring Atopic Dermatitis Scale scores, indicating the acceptable convergent validity of the C-PASECI. The moderate correlation observed between the C-PASECI and General Self-Efficacy Scale (Pearson’s <i>r</i> = 0.53, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001) reflected the acceptable concurrent validity of the C-PASECI. The results of confirmatory factor analysis supported the factorial validity of the C-PASECI. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The C-PASECI appears to be a reliable and valid measure of parental self-efficacy in Chinese parents or caregivers of children with eczema.

Furthermore, the protective activity of compounds <b>1</b> and <b>2</b> on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was evaluated and the specific mechanism was explored. Firstly, the RT-PCR was performed to detect the content of the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) expression in liver cells after compounds treatment. Next, the content of the triglyceride in the blood was evaluated with triglyceride content determination kit.

title: Muscle ultrasonography for detecting fasciculations in frontotemporal dementia

description: Ultrasound detection of muscle fasciculations was recently proposed for assessing lower motor neuron (LMN) dysfunction in ALS patients. Given the continuum between ALS and frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), the aim of the present study was to evaluate muscle ultrasound (MUS) in FTD both for feasibility and prevalence of fasciculations. Twenty-two FTD patients were examined (five muscles bilaterally: biceps brachii, first dorsalis interosseous, T10 paraspinalis, vastus lateralis, tibialis anterior) with a 7-MHz linear array transducer and a fasciculation score (FS) computed. Twenty-two matched cognitively-intact control subjects and six ALS patients were also included. Results showed that MUS was feasible, reliable and well tolerated in all subjects. Two FTD/MND patients displayed very high FS values, similar to those in ALS patients. The remaining 20 FTD patients displayed a mean FS value significantly higher than the control group with six patients (30%) having FS values out of the range of controls. Disease progression rate correlated with the FS. In conclusion, MUS can be easily applied to FTD patients and represents a non-invasive technique for defining LMN involvement in these patients. LMN dysfunction is a frequent condition in FTD and might identify a subset of patients with a different clinical course.

title: Synthesis and properties of 1,3-bis[(2-bromo)benzene]triazene and its binuclear silver complex

description: The reaction of 2-bromoaniline with sodium nitrite affords a triazenido compound, 1,3-bis[(2-bromo)benzene]triazene (HL). Spectroscopic investigations show that HL bears a high selectivity for silver(I) ion in the presence of other metal ions. In the presence of Et<sub>3</sub>N, the reaction of HL and AgNO<sub>3</sub> gives a binuclear triazenido-silver complex, [Ag<sub>2</sub>(L)<sub>2</sub>], which has been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Electrochemical studies show this silver complex can act as an electrocatalyst for hydrogen generation from neutral water with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 874.14 moles of hydrogen per mole of catalyst per hour (mol H<sub>2</sub>/mol catalyst/h) at an over potential (OP) of 837.6 mV.

title: Supplementary Material for: Cochlear Implantation in Patients with Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media: Surgical Outcomes and a Management Algorithm

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) was considered as a contraindication of cochlear implantation (CI) in the past. Recently, various surgical options have been adopted for CI in CSOM patients with showing a low complication rate. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> To evaluate surgical outcomes of CI in patients with CSOM and to propose a management algorithm for those patients. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Thirty-six consecutive patients with CSOM who underwent single stage or staged CI were enrolled. Speech performance, including Categories of Auditory Performance (CAP) test and sentence score, and complications were retrospectively analyzed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The average follow-up was 3.1 years (range 0.5–9.2 years). Postoperative median CAP and sentence scores were 6 and 78%, respectively. Three (8.3%) of the 36 patients had postoperative complications. One experienced breakdown of the ear canal closure. Recurrence of the pars tensa retraction was observed in another patient with adhesive otitis media who underwent CI and cartilage tympanoplasty as a single stage operation. Electrode extrusion occurred in another patient who underwent staged CI with maintenance of a previous open cavity. Subtotal petrosectomy and cavity obliteration were used to manage the latter 2 complications. All implant patients with good mastoid pneumatization exhibited no complications. There were no significant differences in postoperative speech performance and complication rates between single stage CI and staged CI. Based on these current findings, a management algorithm was proposed according to type of CSOM, presence of open cavity, and mastoid pneumatization. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Patients with CSOM show good postoperative speech performance after CI. Proper surgical options according to type of CSOM, presence of open cavity, and mastoid pneumatization may help in reducing complications.

title: Supplementary Material for: Factors Associated with Elective Withdrawal of Maintenance Hemodialysis: A Case-Control Analysis

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Associations of demographic factors with elective dialysis withdrawal and setting of death, patterns of illness trajectories preceding death, and how illness trajectories, particularly worsening putative disability, are associated with elective withdrawal are poorly understood. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Using United States Renal Data System data, we performed a case-control analysis of hemodialysis patients who died in 2010–2015. A disability proxy score characterized disability; logistic regression identified characteristics associated with death from withdrawal and with death setting; and group-based trajectory models characterized the trajectory of disability in the months preceding death. <b><i>Results:</i></b> We identified 14,571 (9.2%) patients who withdrew and 144,305 (90.8%) who died of a non-withdrawal cause. Women were more likely than men to withdraw (OR 1.19, 95% CI 1.15–1.24). The most rural patients were more likely to withdraw than the most urban (OR 1.37, 95% CI 1.25–1.50). Medicaid coverage (a marker for impoverishment) was associated with less withdrawal (OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.86–0.94). Disability proxy score was strongly related to withdrawal: the OR for patients in the highest score category was 31.16 (95% CI 28.40–34.20) versus those with a score of 0. Women and whites (vs. blacks) were overrepresented in the worst, versus better, proxy disability score trajectory. In-hospital death and death in the intensive care unit were more common in women and minorities than in men and whites, but less common in the most rural patients. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Important differences separate patients who electively withdraw from those who die of non-withdrawal causes. Worsening disability, in particular, may be a marker for withdrawal.

title: Supplementary Material for: Brief Report: A Case of Tramadol Overdose: Extracorporeal Life Support and Hemoperfusion as Life-Saving Treatment

description: We describe the case of a 49-year-old woman with a Tramadol intoxication associated with multiorgan failure. Veno-arterial femoro-femoral extracorporeal life support (VA-ECLS) and hemoperfusion (HP) were used as rescue treatments. The emergency medical service found a woman at home unconscious. Once in the hospital, she was intubated and catecholamines support was immediately started for a severe shock. Brain CT was normal, whereas EEG revealed a metabolic encephalopathy pattern. Toxic levels of Tramadol and Quetiapine were detected. VA-ECLS was implanted due to persistent multiorgan failure, and HP with a charcoal cartridge was set to increase the Tramadol clearance. To quantify the charcoal cartridge’s removal efficiency of Tramadol, Tramadol concentration was measured before and after the cartridge and before and after the treatment in the patient’s blood. The charcoal cartridge showed good extraction ratio during the treatment and no significant rebound effect. VA-ECLS and HP allowed the patient to be weaned from vasoconstrictors and the resolution of the organ failures. These treatments might be lifesaving in the Tramadol intoxication.
