BACKGROUND
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic progressive disorder with a poor prognosis.
METHODS
We conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled multicenter study that assessed… (More)
System aspects of an anti-intruder multistatic radar based on impulse radio ultrawideband (UWB) technology are addressed. The investigated system is composed of one transmitting node and at least… (More)
This paper proposes an investigation of propagation behaviour of Ultra–Wide Bandwidth (UWB) signals in outdoor environments. Specifically, we first report on the results of an extensive measurement… (More)
Laboratory differentiation of erythromycin resistance phenotypes is poorly standardized for pneumococci. In this study, 85 clinical isolates of erythromycin-resistant (MIC > or = 1 microg/ml)… (More)

Eighty patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies underwent unmanipulated, G-CSF–primed BM transplantation from an haploidentical family donor. Patients were transplanted in first or… (More)
Chemotherapy followed by autologous transplantation may be an efficient salvage treatment in malignant lymphomas. We investigated the feasibility, tolerability and efficacy of an outpatient schedule… (More)
A non myeloablative conditioning with total lymphoid irradiation (TLI) and antithymocyte globulin (ATG) was shown to protect against graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). To evaluate the effects of… (More)
In this paper we introduce the basic concepts underlying Cognitive Radio (CR) as an emerging approach for a more flexible usage of the precious radio spectrum resources. After the definition of a… (More)
Hemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a standard procedure for treatment of malignant and non-malignant hematological diseases. HSCT donors include HLA-identical siblings, matched or… (More)
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are gaining increasing interest thanks to their flexibility and versatility. However, these systems are very complex and a good simulation platform is needed. In this… (More)
