La vocalidad del violín en el norte de Italia en torno a 1600
2021
Throughout the present research I intend to demonstrate the powerful link between the vocal practice in accompanied monody and the way Early Italian violin music ought to be interpreted. Due to the scarce amount of articulation and ornamentation in this music, I consider that historical criteria should be found in order to back up the subjective choices in its performance. According to this, I focus on reviewing sources that describe the vocal practice around 1600, but also contemporary sources in which we can find instructions addressed to bow instruments. Besides, a catalogue of articulations and ornamentations present in early editions of printed violin music is attached. Last, I comment…
La lettura ad alta voce per favorire lo sviluppo cognitivo ed emotivo del bambino
2023
L’esposizione precoce a pratiche di lettura ad alta voce rappresenta uno strumento fondamentale per lo sviluppo di facoltà cognitive, emotive e psi-cologiche già nella prima infanzia. La lettura ad alta voce è una pratica che se utilizzata fin dalla primissima infanzia è in grado di modellare il cer-vello sviluppando maggiormente circuiti cere-brali che supportano le abilità narrative. Nume-rose ricerche hanno evidenziato come la lettura ad alta voce già dal primo anno di vita favorisca lo sviluppo cognitivo ed emotivo del bambino e faciliti la costruzione di un rapporto positivo tra genitori e figli. La famiglia, pertanto, ha il compi-to principale di promuovere occasioni di lettura ad alt…
Large deep-seated slump structure off Ischia volcanic island, Eastern Tyrrhenian sea (Italy)
2012
Ischia island is located over the Campania sector of Eastern Tyrrhenian margin and represents the sub-aerial section of a larger, E-W trending volcanic ridge including others submerged or buried volcanic edifices. The island itself result from the coalescence of a multitude of small to medium scale eruptions leading to the emplacement of domes, lava flow and pyroclastic deposits and ignimbrites (VEZZOLI et al., 1988) ranging from alkali basalts to trachytes. The oldest basement dates back to 150 ky and crops out along the perimeter of the island especially to the south. Latest eruption occurred in 1302 A.D. and together with strong hydrothermal activity, ground uplift and seismic shaking in…
Descriptive literature review of the added value of virtual realities in vocational education and training
2020
Tarkastelemme tässä katsaus artikkelissa virtuaalitodellisuusteknologian (VR) hyödyntämistä ammattikasvatuksen kentällä viimeisen kymmenen vuoden aikana. Tavoitteenamme on selvittää, minkälaista empiiristä tutkimusta aiheesta on tehty ja minkälaista lisäarvoa VR tuottaa ammattikasvatukselle 13 tutkimusartikkelin perusteella. Tulosten perusteella tutkimus VR:n hyödyntämisestä ammattikasvatuksessa on yhtäältä lisääntynyt, mutta toisaalta empiirisiä tuloksia on vielä suhteellisen vähän. Tutkimus on toistaiseksi keskittynyt käyttökokemuksiin erilaisia VR-sovelluksia hyödynnettäessä. Havaitsemamme lisäarvo liittyy erityisesti reaalimaailman rajoitusten ylittämiseen ja erilaisten oppimisprosessie…
Acute tissue damage induced by monopolar microelectrodes and radiofrequency in vocal cords after transoral cordectomy
2021
Abstract Introduction: In 2006 and 2009, we reported the levels of acute and chronic tissue damage after cordectomy associated with use of the microlectrodes using high frequency energy. In 2010, we shifted to radiofrequency rather than high frequency electrogenerators. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate acute tissue damage in the larynx after cordectomy using microelectrodes coupled to a radiofrequencygenerator. Methods: We studied 22 patients with a stage T1 glottic squamous cell carcinoma. The patients were randomly assigned to the two operating mode: cutting or coagulation (11 patients each mode). The strength of the study is that there are no previous studies on the effect…
Treatment of bilateral vocal cord paralysis following permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.
2012
Bilateral vocal cord paralysis is a serious illness requiring emergency intervention to resolve the potentially life-threatening respiratory distress. Several surgical procedures were proposed to help improve the airway and to eliminate the tracheostoma in those patients with permanent paralysis. All the procedures have their own advantages and disadvantages. We conducted a retrospective study of 30 patients affected by bilateral vocal cord paralysis following total thyroidectomy. All the patients underwent total thyroidectomy for benign thyroid pathology. In 26 patients (86.6%), cord paralysis occurred during the perioperative stage; and in the remaining 4 cases (13.3%), it occurred within…
Radiosurgery in the treatment of laryngeal abductor paralysis
2003
Abstract Abductor true vocal cord paralysis is a complex condition that requires the surgeon to perform an emergency tracheotomy to eliminate the symptom of dyspnea. Throughout the past 20 years, corrective surgery has reverted to techniques using external or endoscopic techniques. For 5 years now, we have used high frequency radiosurgery by Ellman to treat various ENT conditions in our clinic. The experience we have gained has encouraged us to use this method in endoscopic surgery as well, in the treatment of laryngeal abductor paralysis under suspension microlaryngoscopy. Twelve patients were examined between 1999 and 2002. Diagnosis was performed through flexible fiberoptic videolaryngos…
Complete vocal technique laulunopetuksen välineenä
2013
Tutkin kandidaatintutkielmassani laulutekniikkaa nimeltään Complete vocal technique. Tarkoitukseni on selvittää millaisia mahdollisuuksia, ja mahdollisia rajoituksia, se tuo nykypäivän laulunopetukseen, sekä sitä mitkä ovat sen erot ja yhtäläisyydet muihin laulutekniikoihin verrattuna. Complete vocal technique on koko ajan yleistyvä laulutekniikka ja laulunopetusmetodi ja siitä syystä mielestäni tärkeä tutkittava aihe. Kandidaatintutkielmani alussa kerron tiivistetysti Complete vocal techniquen perusajatuksia. Tämän jälkeen siirryn vertailuosioon, jossa otan tarkasteluun pop/jazz-laulutekniikan sekä klassisen laulutekniikan yleisimpiä lauluteknisiä ajatuksia. Lisäksi tarkastelen myös vanhoj…
Design, development and validation of a system for automatic help to medical text understanding
2020
Abstract Objective The paper presents a web-based application, SIMPLE, that facilitates medical text comprehension by identifying the health-related terms of a medical text and providing the corresponding consumer terms and explanations. Background The comprehension of a medical text is often a difficult task for laypeople because it requires semantic abilities that can differ from a person to another, depending on his/her health-literacy level. Some systems have been developed for facilitating the comprehension of medical texts through text simplification, either syntactical or lexical. The ones dealing with lexical simplification usually replace the original text and do not provide additi…
Educare la libertà e il discernimento
2015
L'articolo parte dal dato evidente che si danno gesti di libertà autentica; analizza tre interpretazioni della libertà, quella liberista quella liberale e quella liberante. Quest'ultima è quella conveniente all'educazione di una persona; nel saggio se ne parla come educazione della virtù del discernimento e come "apprendere ad ascoltare la voce della coscienza".
