The carriers of the A/G-G/G allelic combination of the c.2039 A>G and c.-29 G>A FSH receptor polymorphisms retrieve the highest number of oocytes in …
2016
The objective of this study was the elucidation of the possible role of the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) at position -29 and 2039 of the FSH receptor gene (FSHR) as independent predictive markers of ovarian response. Indeed, the tailoring of reproductive treatments is crucial for both maximizing the success of IVF patients and obtaining a reduction in hypo- or hyper-response rates. This prospective, observational study analyzed the association of -29 and 2039 FSHR polymorphisms with the number of retrieved oocytes in 140 patients attending an IVF/ICSI cycle for severe male factors (≤5,000,000 spermatozoa/mL) or tubal factors at the ANDROS Day Surgery Clinic, Palermo, Italy. The res…
Prediction of CRT Activation Sequence by Personalization of Biventricular Models from Electroanatomical Maps
2020
[EN] Optimization of lead placement and interventricular delay settings in patients under cardiac resynchronization therapy is a complex task that might benefit from prior information based on models. Biophysical models can be used to predict the sequence of electrical heart activation in a patient given a set of parameters which should be personalized to the patient. In this paper, we use electroanatomical maps to personalize the endocardial activation of the right ventricle, and the different tissue conductivities in a pig model with left bundle branch block, to reproduce personalized biventricular activations. Following, we tested the personalized heart model by virtually simulating card…
Percezione di efficacia dei docenti universitari e personalizzazione del processo di insegnamento-apprendimento con la DaD
2020
Per rispettare le misure di distanziamento imposte dal COVID 19, le Università hanno dovuto adottare la didattica a distanza (DaD). L’occasione è stata propizia per cercare di personalizzare il processo di insegnamento-apprendimento, vale a dire per centrare meglio la formazione erogata dalle università sulle esigenze dei singoli studenti. L’attuazione dei principi della didattica personalizzata ha richiesto un impegno non indifferente ai docenti che vi si sono cimentati. È stato ipotizzato che la percezione della propria capacità di personalizzare la formazione degli studenti con il supporto delle tecnologie dell’informazione e della comunicazione, influisse sull’efficacia didattica dei do…

QRouteMe: A Multichannel Information System to Ensure Rich User-Experience in Exhibits and Museums
2012
In this article the QRouteMe system is presented. QRouteMe is a multichannel information system built to ensure rich user experiences in exhibits and museums. The system starts from basic information about a particular exhibit or museum while delivering a wide user experience based on different distribution channels. The organization of the systems’ components allow to build different solutions that can be simultaneously delivered on different media. A wide range of media from touch-screen installations to portable devices like smartphones have been used. The used devices can communicate each others to increase the usability and the user experience for the visitors. Another important featur…
A Multichannel Information System to Build and Deliver Rich User-Experiences in Exhibits and Museums
2011
In this article a multichannel information system to build and deliver rich user experiences in exhibits and museums is presented. The system was designed to use information about a particular exhibit or museum while delivering a wide user experience based on different distribution channels. The overall information is used to build different solutions that can be delivered simultaneously on different media from touch-screen installations to portable devices like smart phones. Moreover, all the devices signed in the environment are able to communicate to each others to increase the level of the usability of the system. A case study and analysis of experimental results are also provided.
The survey of gender differences in high schools of Palermo
2013
The teacher who is inspired by the principles of personalization will do their best to adjust their methods of teaching to the characteristics of each student. With the expression “personalized education” it is intended that the necessity of educational equality to all students is joined to the attention given to the peculiarity of each and every one of them. In concrete, it means to encourage and carryout activities that take into account all that appears to be more suitable for personalizing rapport, the learning process and sentimental aspects of all the students.

La personalizzazione nella didattica universitaria
2017
La personalizzazione dei processi di apprendimento, e dei processi educativi in genere, colloca al centro la persona umana in una visione di formazione permanente che diventa non solamente il fine di tali processi, ma anche la prospettiva di ogni metodologia. L'apprendimento personalizzato avviene quando ognuno di noi diviene padrone del proprio apprendimento e perché questo possa verificarsi docenti e studenti devono cambiare il proprio ruolo. Personalizzare vuol dire ottenere che ogni uomo cresca in accordo con ciò che egli è ovvero che si realizzi come persona, che va nobilitata perché raggiunga l'eccellenza che gli è propria. Per poter programmare un'azione didattica in Università, che …
Using the Electronics Development Advantage in Creating a Buzz for the Airline Passengers
