Mimmo Rotella e il Surrealismo: i rimandi all’iconografia surrealista negli oggetti, nei frottages e negli éffaçages
Il volume è pubblicato in occasione del centenario della nascita di Mimmo Rotella, in concomitanza della più ampia mostra mai realizzata sull'artista.
Ricco di contributi critici e di un vasto apparato iconografico, il volume ripercorre tutte le tappe della carriera dell'artista, nato a Catanzaro nel 1918: dalle prime opere astratte, alle esperienze informali degli anni '50, dalla relazione con il Nouveau Réalisme di Pierre Restany, alle tangenze con la Pop Art, al rapporto con l'America.
Ampio approfondimento è dedicato alla sua ricerca più nota, quella intorno ai décollages e ai retro d'affiches, ma viene anche indagato il rapporto con città come New York, Roma, Parigi e Milano, con la critica d'arte e con gli artisti contemporanei.
Completano il volume apparati biobibliografici.

Vitamin D deficiency is common in kidney transplant recipients, but is not associated with infections after transplantation
The relevance of vitamin D for infections after kidney transplantation is poorly defined. 25-OH vitamin D (25-OHD) levels of 135 kidney transplant recipients, enrolled in the Swiss Transplant Cohort Study, were determined peri-transplant and 6 months post-transplant. Logistic regression was used to address the associations of 25-OHD and overall infections and bacterial infections, respectively. For the first 6 months post-transplant, 25-OHD peri-transplant, and for the second period (after 6 to 30 months post-transplant), 25-OHD at 6 months post-transplant was considered. Vitamin D deficiency was common peri-transplant and remained highly prevalent 6 months after transplantation despite frequent supplementation. Median 25-OHD levels increased from 12.0 ng/mL (IQR 5.3-19.5) peri-transplant to 16.5 ng/mL (IQR 10.6-22.6) 6 months post-transplant (P = .005). We did not detect a significant association between 25-OHD and overall infections (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.05, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) 0.44-2.51; aOR 0.67, 95%CI 0.31-1.43) or bacterial infections (aOR 0.79, 95%CI 0.32-1.96; aOR 0.79, 95%CI 0.35-1.75) for the first and second period. To conclude, at both time points, vitamin D deficiency was observed in more than 50% of kidney recipients, albeit an increase in 25-OHD in the longitudinal course was observed. No significant association between 25-OHD and infections was detected.status: publishe
