A Revised Sex Assessment of the Epigravettian Human Remain ST1 from San Teodoro Cave (Messina, Sicily)
2013
Bias in skeletal sexing is well known and depends upon the completeness of the skeletal remains. The problem is very hard concerning prehistorical remains. We applied ‘Visual methods’ and ‘Probabilistic Sex Diagnosis’ (DSP) on the coxal bones on the Epigravettian skeleton (ST1) from San Teodoro (Messina, Sicily). On the basis of cranial characters and the overall robustness of the postcranial skeleton, it was suggested, since the time of the discovery, a male sex for ST1. This determination was later modified on the basis of the pelvic girdle morphology, and the skeleton was attributed the female sex for many years by large consensus. Our results indicate without ambiguity that ST1 is a mal…

Securitización urbana en el centro histórico de Valencia: actores, dispositivos y discursos
2022
Este artículo presenta un análisis etnográfico de los procesos de securitización urbana que están teniendo lugar en un barrio del centro histórico de Valencia. Trazamos una economía política de la securitización urbana en la escala local, fijándonos en el papel desempeñado por una pluralidad de actores entre los que encontramos vecindario, movimientos urbanos, cuerpos policiales e instituciones locales. El análisis se centra en una multiplicidad de dispositivos y tácticas securitarias, desde las arquitecturas preventivas y el urbanismo punitivo hasta la policialización de la convivencia vecinal y la implementación de ordenanzas de civismo, pasando por los sistemas privados de vigilancia.

Decoupled Acoustic and Visual Components in the Multimodal Signals of the Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus)
2021
Because of its parasitic habits, reproduction costs of the common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) are mostly spent in pre-laying activities. Female costs are limited to searching host nests and laying eggs, whereas, males spend time in performing intense vocal displays, possibly with territorial purpose. This last aspect, together with a sexual plumage dimorphism, points to both intra- and inter-sexual selections operating within this species. One element triggering sexual selection is a differential fitness accrued by different phenotypes. Before analyzing possible sexual selection mechanisms operating in cuckoos, it is therefore necessary to verify whether there is a variability among male secon…

Sexual behaviors and function during menopausal transition—does menopausal hormonal therapy play a role?
2020
Objectives: The menopausal transition is a biological adaptation to the variety of life changes (body, comorbidities, relationship), but that biology is not an “end all” in the context of sexual function and overall sexual health. The aim of this study is to evaluate determinants altering the risk of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) and other sexual problems and to establish whether menopausal hormonal therapy (MHT) decreases that risk and modifies sexual behaviors. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted in 210 women between the ages of 45 and 55. Two groups were identified: MHT users (n = 107) and controls—MHT non-users (n = 103). Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of M…

Il dovere di fedeltà coniugale tra sessualità legale e sessualità consentita : una indagine casistico-giurisprudenziale di diritto comparato
2022
The provision on marital fidelity seems to be a systemological consistent fact throughout most countries belonging to the so-called «Western legal tradition», despite the numerous and profound changes in family law that have crossed each of them. From a comparative law perspective and with a case-law approach, the essay analyses the role that this duty plays in the microsystem of family relationships at present. It focuses attention on a broad spectrum of situations: from the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage descending from the adultery in the divorce judgments to the related civil liability issues; from the assignment of property rights by the spouse who committed adultery to the re…
