Cooling of the cerebellar interpositus nucleus abolishes somatosensory cortical learning-related activity in eyeblink conditioned rabbits.
2005
Nictitating membrane movement and multiple-unit activity in the somatosensory cortex were recorded from rabbits during paired (N = 6) and unpaired (N = 5) presentations of a tone conditioned stimulus (CS) and an airpuff unconditioned stimulus (US). A behavioural conditioned response (CR) to the CS and an accompanying neural response in the somatosensory cortex developed only in the paired group. Inactivation of the cerebellar interpositus nucleus abolished both the acquired CR and the accompanying neural response. However, the CS facilitated both behavioural and neural responses to the US during the inactivation. Thus, the absence of the CR could not be accounted for by the general inabilit…
The cortical representation of pain.
1999
Anatomical and physiological studies in animals, as well as functional imaging studies in humans have shown that multiple cortical areas are activated by painful stimuli. The view that pain is perceived only as a result of thalamic processing has, therefore, been abandoned, and has been replaced by the question of what functions can be assigned to individual cortical areas. The following cortical areas have been shown to be involved in the processing of painful stimuli: primary somatosensory cortex, secondary somatosensory cortex and its vicinity in the parietal operculum, insula, anterior cingulate cortex and prefrontal cortex. These areas probably process different aspects of pain in para…
GUARINO GUARINI E LA CHIESA DEI PADRI SOMASCHI A MESSINA
2016
Il progetto di Guarino Guarini per la chiesa dei Padri Somaschi di Messina costituisce uno dei problemi aperti della letteratura storiografica dedicata al celebre architetto modenese. La sua mancata realizzazione e, al contempo, le sue connotazioni ritenute ricorrentemente troppo “mature” per la fase iniziale della sua carriera, svoltasi a Messina negli anni 1657- 1662, hanno infatti indotto a sostanziali incertezze sulla sua collocazione cronologia e quindi sul suo effettivo ruolo nella concatenazione delle esperienze progettuali di Guarini, in merito soprattutto alla messa a punto delle sue singolari cupole a fasce incrociate. Questo contributo propone un risposta a tali irrisolte questio…

A system for sign language sentence recognition based on common sense context
2005
The paper proposes a complete framework for sign language recognition that integrates common sense in order to deal with sentences. The proposed system is based on a cognitive architecture allows modeling and managing the knowledge of the recognition process in a simple and robust way. The final abstraction level of this architecture introduces the semantic context and the analysis of the correctness of a sentence given a sequence of recognized signs. Experimentations are presented using the Italian sign language (LIS), and shows that the system maintains the recognition rate high when set of sign grows, correcting erroneous recognized single sign using the context
Transnational Minor Literature: Cristina Ali Farah's Somali Italian Stories
2019
The essay investigates writer Cristina Ali Farah's narratives and her use of language, by referring to the paradigm of transnational studies, applying the notion of minor literature to women's diasporic literature and in particular to Ali Farah's novels and short stories.
Medico-legal implications of sleep apnoea syndrome: driving license regulations in Europe.
2008
Background: Sleep apnoea syndrome (SAS), one of the main medical causes of excessive daytime sleepiness, has been shown to be a risk factor for traffic accidents. Treating SAS results in a normalized rate of traffic accidents. As part of the COST Action B-26, we looked at driving license regulations, and especially at its medical aspects in the European region. Methods: We obtained data from Transport Authorities in 25 countries (Austria, AT; Belgium, BE; Czech Republic, CZ; Denmark, DK; Estonia, EE; Finland, FI; France, FR; Germany, DE; Greece, GR; Hungary, HU; Ireland, IE; Italy, IT; Lithuania, LT; Luxembourg, LU; Malta, MT; Netherlands, NL; Norway, EC; Poland, PL; Portugal, PT; Slovakia,…

Asociaciones de inmigrantes, Estados y desarrollo entre España y Colombia. ¿Un nuevo campo social transnacional?
2017
A pesar de la distancia geografica, las asociaciones de inmigrantes colombianos en Espana han tenido una creciente incidencia en los asuntos locales de su pais de origen, y sus acciones han ido adquiriendo una progresiva dimension transnacional. Entre otras practicas, las asociaciones han implementado numerosos proyectos de desarrollo en Colombia que han implicado la movilizacion de redes verticales y horizontales, tanto en el pais de origen como en el de destino, en paralelo con el renovado interes de los Estados colombiano y espanol por dar soporte a esas acciones. En este articulo nos preguntamos en que medida estas dinamicas, inducidas por la migracion, podrian haber contribuido a la co…
