Abstract

The aim of this special issue is to present empirical research outcomes and theoretical works that use the concept of legal culture to characterize the approach of the sociology of law. The papers presented were called for at the Oñati Workshop on Legal Culture and empirical research, originally planned for May 2020, but actually held in May 2021, on the initiative of the International Institute of Sociology of Law, and the Sociology of Law Section of the Italian Sociological Association. After an intense meeting, papers were submitted for the standard review process of the Iisl series. We considered that including the concept of legal culture into the research design and insisting on this focus for debate, could be a way of improving the socio-legal character of our research and settling the many disputes in a continuous debate. So, we looked for research experiences in which the concept of legal culture was used to configure legal phenomena in a specifically socio-legal way.

Abstract

We conducted a prospective study aimed at investigating the prognostic value of the dynamic of a-GVHD progression from cutaneous to visceral involvement. In 108 consecutive patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT, we classified a-GVHD according to a "GHVD skin dynamic": 18/82 patients started Corticosteroid (CS) within 48 h (Group 1); 13/82 started CS within days 3-7 (Group 2); Group 3A (n 31) was defined when Skin GVHD Overall Grade 1, left untreated for 1 week, showed an increase in involved body surface area <5 %; Group 3B (n 20), was defined when Skin GVHD Overall Grade 1, left untreated at 1 week, had an increase in involved body surface area >5%. These four groups had distinctive 2-y OS. Patients could be then grouped into "poor risk" (Group 1 and Group 3B) and "good risk" (Group 2 and Group 3A). "Poor risk" had inferior OS in univariate and multivariate analysis, (HR 2.222; 95% CL: 1.017-4.855; p 0.04). Among the patients with skin-only Grade 1 GVHD, subgroup 3A had an OS of 75.1% versus 39.8% found in subgroup 3B (p = 0.03). The dynamic of skin GVHD may be used to classify a-GVHD and guide treatment in Overall Grade 1 skin-only GVHD., (© 2023. The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited.)
