Chitosan is biopolymer with promising properties in wound healing. Chronic wounds represent a significant burden to both the patient and the medical system. Among chronic wounds, pressure ulcers are one of the most common types of complex wound. The efficacy and the tolerability of chitosan gel formulation, prepared into the hospital pharmacy, in the treatment of pressure ulcers of moderate severity were evaluated. The endpoint of this phase II study was the reduction of the area of the lesion by at least 20% after four weeks of treatment. Thus, 20 adult volunteers with pressure ulcers within predetermined parameters were involved in a 30 days study. Dressing change was performed twice a week at outpatient clinic upon chronic wounds management. In the 90% of patients involved in the study, the treatment was effective, with a reduction of the area of the lesion and wound healing progress. The study demonstrated the efficacy of the gel formulation for treatment of pressure ulcers, also providing a strong reduction of patient management costs.

Through examples from medieval Germanic texts, the papers collected in this volume offer significant insights into the specific role played by philology in the field of 'intertemporal translation', thus casting light on the central function, especially in the current cultural situation, of a discipline that values the ability of 'reading slowly' and a respectful approach towards the datum. Per parlare di quel fenomeno complesso e difficilmente circoscrivibile che comunemente chiamiamo traduzione si ricorre spesso alla metafora del viaggio. L'idea del movimento è insita nei verbi latini transferre e traducere da cui discendono i principali termini usati in italiano e in altre lingue moderne per parlare dell'attività traduttiva (tradurre, traduir, traducir, translate, übersetzen ecc.) e compare, variamente articolata, nella riflessione sul tradurre di più di un teoric...
