Genome-wide analysis of Italian sheep diversity reveals a strong geographic pattern and cryptic relationships between breeds
2014
Summary Italy counts several sheep breeds, arisen over centuries as a consequence of ancient and recent genetic and demographic events. To finely reconstruct genetic structure and relationships between Italian sheep, 496 subjects from 19 breeds were typed at 50K single nucleotide polymorphism loci. A subset of foreign breeds from the Sheep HapMap dataset was also included in the analyses. Genetic distances (as visualized either in a network or in a multidimensional scaling analysis of identical by state distances) closely reflected geographic proximity between breeds, with a clear north–south gradient, likely because of high levels of past gene flow and admixture all along the peninsula.

"Somers Town". Multilingual settings explored in audiovisual translation contexts
2018
In the last decades advances in digital communication and audiovisual translation studies have significantly transformed the ways by which texts and people travel across linguistic, spatial and temporal boundaries. This is particularly evident in the everchanging landscape of audiovisual translation as a consequence of the digital revolution that has contributed to the creation of new forms of adaptation and proliferation of mediated and non-mediated products. The case of multilingual discourse applied to contemporary diasporic and migrant films, in which sociolinguistics intervenes as a methodological approach to the translation of marginal voices, has gained scholarly attention as a resul…
Estudio comparado entre el impacto de la política migratoria estadounidense sobre la Frontera Norte de México y la política migratoria española sobre…
2020
A través de este trabajo, se pretende mostrar los resultados de la investigación sobre el terreno llevada a cabo en la ciudad fronteriza de Tijuana y algunos puntos clave de la frontera norte de México con Estados Unidos ubicados en la región de Baja California y California, para compararlos con los obtenidos en el estudio realizado en las ciudades autónomas de Ceuta y Melilla, además de otras localidades cercanas a la frontera sur de España con Marruecos. Su finalidad es establecer hasta qué punto el control de fronteras ha condicionado el patrón de desplazamientos de migrantes irregulares hacia estos países, y cuáles han sido sus consecuencias en las regiones fronterizas. Así, en primer l…
The migration of femoral components after total hip replacement surgery: accuracy and precision of software-aided measurements.
2003
To assess the accuracy and precision of a software-aided system to measure migration of femoral components after total hip replacement (THR) on digitised radiographs.Subsidence and varus-valgus tilt of THR stems within the femur were measured on digitised anteroposterior pelvic radiographs. The measuring software (UMA, GEMED, Germany) relies on bony landmarks and comparability parameters of two consecutive radiographs. Its accuracy and precision were calculated by comparing it with the gold standard in migration measurements, radiostereometric analysis (RSA). Radiographs and corresponding RSA measurements were performed in 60 patients (38-69 years) following cementless THR surgery.The UMA s…
Leukodiapedesis and leukocyte migration in the leptomeninges and in the subarachnoid space.
1981
Pleocytosis in cerebrospinal fluid and infiltration of the leptomeningeal tissue have been studied after injection of ferritin into the subarachnoid space (SAS) of cats. The most important source of granulocytes in the leptomeninges are the relatively large veins of the pia mater, which have very thin walls. Passing between the lining cells of the pia mater the granulocytes leave the connective tissue space of the pia mater and reach the SAS. Leukodiapedesis has also been observed in veins crossing the SAS. During this process, gaps between the lining cells of the perivascular leptomeningeal sheath may develop. There are two possible ways for the granulocytes to pass from the vascular pia m…
IAP proteins as targets for drug development in oncology.
2013
The inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) constitute a family of proteins involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including cell death, immune and inflammatory responses, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell motility. There is accumulating evidence supporting IAP-targeting in tumors: IAPs regulate various cellular processes that contribute to tumor development, such as cell death, cell proliferation, and cell migration; their expression is increased in a number of human tumor samples, and IAP overexpression has been correlated with tumor growth, and poor prognosis or low response to treatment; and IAP expression can be rapidly induced in response to chemotherapy or …

Fourth case of louse-borne relapsing fever in Young Migrant, Sicily, Italy, December 2015. Mini Review Article
2016
Abstract Objectives Currently louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF) is primarily found in limited endemic foci in Ethiopia, Somalia and Sudan; no case of imported LBRF has been reported in Europe in the 9 years prior to 2015. The aim of our paper is to describe a new case of imported LBRF detected in Sicily, Italy, and to review all cases reported in migrants arrived in Europe in the last 10 years. Study design Mini review of all published cases of louse-borne relapsing fever in Europe in the last 10 years. Methods A computerized search without language restriction was conducted using PubMed combining the terms ‘(louse-borne relapsing fever or LBRF or recurrentis) and (refugee or Europe or mig…
Aspiracje edukacyjne i zawodowe oraz zamierzenia migracyjne młodzieży z województwa podkarpackiego w świetle badań empirycznych
2018
Artykuł prezentuje wyniki socjologicznych badań sondażowych nad dążeniami życiowymi młodzieży z województwa podkarpackiego w kontekście przyszłości tego regionu. Wśród młodzieży dominuje chęć nauki na studiach wyższych, w bardzo dobrym ośrodku akademickim z tradycjami. Młodzi ludzie oceniają również region jak tradycyjny i konserwatywny oraz mało postępowy. W związku z tym utrzymują się nadal wysokie skłonności migracyjne wśród młodzieży, zarówno wewnętrzne jak i zagraniczne, co zagraża harmonijnemu rozwojowi regionu w przyszłości. Natomiast Podkarpackie nie jest raczej zagrożone „pułapką niskiej dzietności", bowiem wśród młodzieży był popularny model rodziny tradycyjnej, z dwojgiem dzieci,…
