An observational, longitudinal and prospective study was carried out from October 2011 to March 2012 in order to evaluate the adequacy of thromboembolic prophylaxis prescribed in an Emergency Department according to the PRETEMED (Prevention of thromboembolic venous disease in medical patients) guide. For each patient an adjusted risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) was calculated and the clinic...

Gravitomagnetic effects in Kerr - de Sitter space - time Lorenzo Iorio

We explicitly worked out the orbital effects induced on the trajectory of a test particle by the the weak-field approximation of the Kerr-de Sitter metric. It results that the node, the pericentre and the mean anomaly undergo secular precessions proportional to k, which is a measure of the non linearity of the theory. We used such theoretical predictions and the latest observational determinati...

Lorenzo Magnani

What distinguishes abductive inference from other modes of inference? What distinguishes the different forms of abductive inference? These are perhaps the key questions that face the student of abduction, and the core of Lorenzo Magnani’s book is devoted to them. The book contains, among other things, a defence of several putative distinctions, and it touches on an impressively wide range of pe...

Employment by Lotto Revisited

We study employment by lotto (Aldershof et al., 1999), a procedurally fair matching algorithm for the so-called stable marriage problem. We complement Aldershof et al.’s (1999) analysis in two ways. First, we give an alternative and intuitive description of employment by lotto in terms of a probabilistic serial dictatorship on the set of stable matchings. Second, we show that Aldershof et al.’s...
