Come si cura la vasculite cutanea?
Il trattamento per molti tipi di vasculite consiste nella somministrazione di un farmaco corticosteroide, ad esempio prednisone o metilprednisolone, che aiuta a ridurre l'infiammazione. La dose e la durata della terapia dipendono dall'entità e dalla durata della vasculite.
What is a baculite fossil?
- Baculites, genus of extinct cephalopods (animals related to the modern squid, octopus, and nautilus) found as fossils in Late Cretaceous marine rocks (formed from 99.6 million to 65.5 million years ago). Baculites, restricted to a narrow time range, is an excellent guide or index fossil for Late Cretaceous time and rocks.
What is the size of a baculite shell?
- The juvenile shell, found at the apex, is coiled in one or two whorls and described as minute, about 1 centimetre (0.39 in) in diameter. Adult Baculites ranged in size from about 7 centimetres (2.8 in) ( Baculites larsoni) up to 2 metres (6.6 ft) in length.
Are Baculites still in use today?
- They are still in use today by Indigenous peoples. Baculites and related Cretaceous straight ammonite cephalopods are often confused with the superficially similar orthocerid nautiloid cephalopods. Both are long and tubular in form, and both are common items for sale in rock shops (often under each other's names).
What is the difference between a male and female baculite?
- One notable feature about Baculites is that the males may have been a third to a half the size of the females and may have had much lighter ribbing on the surface of the shell.
