Exploring Moderators of the Effect of High vs. Low-to-Moderate Intensity Exercise on Cardiorespiratory Fitness During Breast Cancer Treatment – Analy…
2022
IntroductionThe results from the physical training and cancer randomized controlled trial (Phys-Can RCT) indicate that high intensity (HI) strength and endurance training during (neo-)adjuvant cancer treatment is more beneficial for cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF, measured as peak oxygen uptake [VO2peak]) than low-to-moderate intensity (LMI) exercise. Adherence to the exercise intervention and demographic or clinical characteristics of patients with breast cancer undergoing adjuvant treatment may moderate the exercise intervention effect on VO2peak. In this study, the objective was to investigate whether baseline values of VO2peak, body mass index (BMI), time spent in moderate- to vigorous-…
Algoritmi, Informazione, Formazione. Riflessioni, esperienze di ricerca e didattica attorno al progetto Fake News
2022
De Kerckhove ci segnala che viviamo al tempo della "tirannia morbida" della “datacrazia”, del capitalismo della sorveglianza digitale, dei deep fake e della prepotenza degli algoritmi, imprigionati, come siamo, dentro bolle di filtraggio e camere dell’eco. Un ecosistema dell’informazione che attraversa una fase caotica e ci impone la ricerca di un nuovo equilibrio tra tecnologia e uomo. Per governare con più competenza e maggiore coscienza etica tale complessità, occorre agire sulla formazione delle generazioni future. Una sfida fondamentale che, superando le aberrazioni dell’utopia tecnicistica, ci accompagni verso una nuova dimensione antropologica della tecnologia. Un “umanesimo digitale…
"I use it correctly!": The use of ICTs among Italian grandmothers in a generational perspective
2018
In this project, we investigated the role played by digital media and information and communication technologies (ICTs) in building intergenerational and intragenerational relations for grandparents. Specifically, we investigated the possible relationships between grandmothers, children, and grandchildren, with the aim of understanding the dynamics of intergenerational exchanges and how grandmothers experience the use of the Internet as a tool to facilitate communication with family members. The research shows that the reflections regarding the role of the Internet among elderly people are often linked to a generational identity and generational belonging and involve constant comparison wit…
«Nel profondo del tempo e dei tramonti». Tra le carte di Lucio Piccolo: nuclei ideativi e processi compositivi di Plumelia
2022
Il volume circoscrivere l’oggetto della sua indagine alla terza raccolta di Lucio Piccolo, Plumelia, pubblicata nel 1967. L'analisi condotta permette di seguire il configurarsi di alcuni degli aspetti più originali della poetica piccoliana facendo convergere a più livelli critica filologica, filologia digitale, genesi ed ermeneutica testuale. Ad essere adottata è non solo una prospettiva sincronica, – indispensabile per l’esame di un’opera edita – ma anche diacronica – volta a sondare le fasi della sua realizzazione. Il volume è arricchito dalla preziosa estensione dell’edizione critica digitale di Plumelia, realizzata e curata dalla studiosa e che offre l’inedita possibilità di accedere al…
Why are there no comprehensively digital scholarly editions of classical texts?
2018
Currently, no 'canonical' classical text with a multi-testimonial tradition has a digital scholarly edition based on a complete digital transcription of all primary sources, and on the automated collation of those transcriptions. Most classicists simply do not feel that they need such editions. I argue that this is ultimately due to the 'canonization' of the corpus of classical texts. Classicists are more focussed on the 'Text' than on the documents (manuscripts) and their texts: they tend not to consider the textual variance in the manuscripts as culturally meaningful in itself, but merely instrumental in view of the constitutio textus. I suspect that we will not have 'comprehensively digi…
Assessment of cross-flow filtration as microalgae harvesting technique prior to anaerobic digestion: Evaluation of biomass integrity and energy demand
2018
[EN] In the present study, the effect of cross-flow filtration (CFF) on the overall valorization of Chlorella spp. microalgae as biogas was assessed. The effect of CFF on microalgae cell integrity was quantified in terms of viability which was correlated with the anaerobic biodegradability. The viability dropped as the biomass concentration increased, whereas anaerobic biodegradability increased linearly with the viability reduction. It was hypothesized that a stress-induced release and further accumulation of organic polymers during CFF increased the flux resistance which promoted harsher shear-stress conditions. Furthermore, the volume reduction as the concentration increased entailed an …
El cuerpo materno en la red: entre el orden de lo ?deseable? y el de lo real
2019
El estilo de vida fitness se realiza en, y a través de, un entramado subjetivo y de poder en el que circulan y se ensamblan dispositivos empresariales, terapéuticos, sanitarios y de espectacularización de los cuerpos, tendientes a inscribir la vida de la población en las tramas conflictivas de un capitalismo heterosexista, neoliberal e informacional. En dicho marco, la temporalidad, metamorfosis y plasticidad del cuerpo materno irrumpe como problema y objeto de intervención de tecnologías diversas orientadas a ajustar su tamaño, forma y devenir a los parámetros de la vida activa y saludable. En escenarios digitales, dicha tensión se materializa, por un lado, a través de dispositivos visuale…
Addition of milk or caseinophosphopeptides to fruit beverages to improve iron bioavailability?
2010
Abstract A study has been made of the influence of caseinophosphopeptides (CPPs) added to a fruit beverage versus milk based fruit beverages upon iron retention, transport and uptake, using a combined simulated gastrointestinal digestion/Caco-2 cell system. Grape concentrate, orange concentrate, and apricot puree were used for sample formulation. Eight samples were assayed with/without added Fe sulphate (3 mg/100 ml fruit beverage) and/or added Zn sulphate (1.6 mg/100 ml fruit beverage), with/without skimmed milk (11% v/v). The addition of milk to fruit beverages exerted a positive effect on iron retention, transport and uptake versus fruit beverages, and this effect was greater than that o…

Bioavailability of calcium from milk-based formulas and fruit juices containing milk and cereals estimated by in vitro methods (solubility, dialyzabi…
2005
An adequate calcium intake during the first years of life is needed for normal growth and development and to prevent rickets. The bioavailability of calcium from infant foods (milk-based formulas and fruit juices containing milk and cereals, FMC), the dietary sources of calcium in these stages of life, has been estimated on the basis of simulated gastrointestinal digestion and calcium solubility and dialyzability values and on the efficiency of transport and uptake by Caco-2 cells. The ranking of samples according to calcium bioavailability depends on the use of solubility or dialyzability as criterion. On the basis of the former, the highest value corresponded to adapted formulas and the l…
