Genome-wide association analysis in dilated cardiomyopathy reveals two new players in systolic heart failure on chromosomes 3p25.1 and 22q11.23
2021
Abstract Aims Our objective was to better understand the genetic bases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a leading cause of systolic heart failure. Methods and results We conducted the largest genome-wide association study performed so far in DCM, with 2719 cases and 4440 controls in the discovery population. We identified and replicated two new DCM-associated loci on chromosome 3p25.1 [lead single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs62232870, P = 8.7 × 10−11 and 7.7 × 10−4 in the discovery and replication steps, respectively] and chromosome 22q11.23 (lead SNP rs7284877, P = 3.3 × 10−8 and 1.4 × 10−3 in the discovery and replication steps, respectively), while confirming two previously identif…
Effects of sauna bath on heart failure : A systematic review and meta-analysis
2018
Background: Sauna bath has potential as a lifestyle treatment modality for heart failure (HF). It is important to analyze the current evidence to help suggest paths of future study and potential for clinical application. Hypothesis: Sauna bath has a positive effect on HF patients. Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL databases were searched to identify randomized and nonrandomized controlled studies to compare effects of sauna bath with no sauna bath. Studies were searched for both infrared sauna bath and Finnish sauna bath. The strength of evidence was rated using a modified GRADE approach. Out of 1444 studies, nine met the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Seve…
Carlo Scarpa. Una [curiosa] lama di luce, un gonfalone d’oro, le mani e un viso di donna : riflessioni sul processo progettuale per l’allestimento di…
2020
Seconda edizione aggiornata e ampliata febbraio 2020. L’organizzazione spaziale di tutta la Galleria Regionale di Palazzo Abatellis è un luogo di mediazioni complesse fra l’impegno progettuale scarpiano, il senso di misura e di armonia complessiva e le istanze del curatore Giorgio Vigni. Il volume, nella sua struttura, cerca di far comprendere il collegamento fra il luogo e il processo progettuale del “fare scarpiano”, scartando la cronologia dell’intervento stesso con riflessioni che riguardano la strategia dei percorsi, e forse svelano un possibile messaggio in codice. Si tratta di una ricognizione mirata, la cui narrazione è ricomposta anche grazie ad alcuni indizi (rinvenuti durante lo …
On the spectral moments of non-WSSUS mobile-to mobile double-Rayleigh fading channels
2017
This paper deals with the mathematical analysis of the spectral moments of non-wide-sensestationary uncorrelated-scattering (non-WSSUS) mobile-to-mobile (M2M) double-Rayleigh fading channels. The point of departure is a recently proposed geometry-based statistical model (GBSM) for M2M double-Rayleigh fading channels from which general analytical expressions are derived for the average Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, and delay spread. Closed-form solutions of such expressions are presented for the particular case of the geometrical two-rings scattering model. The obtained results indicate that the average Doppler shift and Doppler spread are directly influenced by not only the …
Case-Sensitivity of Classifiers for WSD: Complex Systems Disambiguate Tough Words Better
2007
We present a novel method for improving disambiguation accuracy by building an optimal ensemble (OE) of systems where we predict the best available system for target word using a priori case factors (e.g. amount of training per sense). We report promising results of a series of best-system prediction tests (best prediction accuracy is 0.92) and show that complex/simple systems disambiguate tough/easy words better. The method provides the following benefits: (1) higher disambiguation accuracy for virtually any base systems (current best OE yields close to 2% accuracy gain over Senseval-3 state of the art) and (2) economical way of building more effective ensembles of all types (e.g. optimal,…

Le château de fond en comble : Hiérarchisation verticale des espaces dans les châteaux médiévaux et modernes : Actes du septième colloque internation…
2020
International audience; Le château, notamment le château fort du Moyen Âge, a souvent exprimé la qualité de son occupant par une hypertrophie de la dimension verticale ; cette volonté ostentatoire de voir et d'être vu est emblématisée par l'empilement des étages et la surélévation des tours. Du point de vue de la hiérarchisation verticale des espaces intérieurs, le premier étage est généralement réservé aux fonctions les plus nobles, l'apparat et la réception, tandis que les niveaux bas sont abandonnés aux fonctions de stockage, de cuisine, voire de prison, et les étages supérieurs aux espaces privés et ancillaires (galetas). Les tours et tourelles sont souvent occupées, au bel étage, par d…
La cattedrale di Catania-Catania Cathedral
2015
Il volume ripercorre le vicende secolari (dal Medioevo al Novecento) di una grande fabbrica stratificata dell'architettura siciliana: la cattedrale di Catania. La cattedrale normanna e il terremoto del 1169; gli innesti tardogotici e rinascimentali; il ruolo dei vescovi "costruttori" dopo la Controriforma; il terremoto del 1693 e la ricostruzione; il dibattito sulla nuova facciata progettata dall'architetto Giovan Battista Vaccarini; il completamenti del XIX secolo: cupola e campanile; la campagna di scavi e restauri del 1957, sono gli argomenti approfonditi dalla ricerca. Introduce un breve paragrafo sulla storia della città di Catania e delle sue architetture più significative costruite p…

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly malignant tumor histotype which lacks effective targeted therapies, thereby being considered as the most aggressive form of breast carcinoma. To identify novel compounds which could counteract TNBC cell growth, we explored the in vitro effects of crude extracts and <
