The effect of time-of-day and sleep deprivation on postural control: A systematic review.
2022
Background: Postural control (PC) can be affected by circadian rhythm and sleep deprivation, whereby it has been reported the result of PC measurement in clinical and experimental situations can be influenced by both factors. It has been suggested sleepiness can result in deficiency in PC, which in turn can lead to occupational accidents and subsequent injuries. This is while no study critically reviews or summarizes findings surrounding this topic in the literature. Research question: Is there any significant effect of sleep deprivation and circadian rhythm on PC variables among healthy individuals? Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase were used to detect relevant studies. O…
Effects of physical activity on postural balance in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: results from pilot study

Whose Turn Is It? Problems of Reconciling Family and Work in Dual-Career Couples.
2015
The work-family life conflict affects various aspects of dual-career families. Parenthood and the work-family life balance lead to an overload of responsibility and disparity at the expense of women, on a private as well as on a social level. In our research, we examined WIF (work to family) and FIW (family to work) conflicts in a sample of 483 dual-career couples. The main results underline an increase in familiar duties concerning child birth and childcare, as associated with the traditional work-family life balance strategy. The data seems to reflect differences in traditional roles between public-male- breadwinner and private-female-homemaker.

Diet and Immunosenescence
2013
Ageing is a systemic condition leading to a gradual loss of molecular and cellular fidelity. A feature of ageing is immunosenescence, consisting in several modifications that increase morbidity and mortality in elderly. Environment, genetic background, immune system, and intestinal microbiota play a fundamental role in immunosenescence. The development of a chronic, low-grade, inflammatory status, known as “inflamm-ageing,” is a typical aspect of immunosenescence mostly due to the pro-inflammatory cytokine production linked to the chronic antigenic load. Nutrition can act on ageing, immunity, and health in general. Unbalanced diet with an insufficient intake of micro- and macronutrient and …
From gut microflora imbalance to mycobacteria infection: is there a relationship with chronic intestinal inflammatory diseases?
2011
The gut of a healthy adult harbours a myriad of different microbial species. It is estimated that approximately 10 14 are present in total bacterial colony forming units (CFU). Each colony colonizes a specific intestinal tract. In healthy adult, the main control of intestinal bacterial colonization occurs through gastric acidity but also other factors can influence the intestinal microenvironment such as pH, temperature, competition among different bacterial strains, peristalsis, drugs, radiotherapy and much more. Impaired microbial homeostasis leads to an alteration of the permeability of tissue, together with the activation of the intestinal immune system MALT (mucosal associated lymphoid…
RENAL SALT WASTING: UNA SINDROME DA INAPPROPRIATA SECREZIONE DI URODILATINA? UNO STUDIO PILOTA
2022
La Renal Salt Wasting Syndrome (RSW) è una sindrome clinica con caratteristiche di laboratorio che si sovrappongono completamente alla sindrome da secrezione inappropriata di ADH (SIADH). La differenza fondamentale tra le due sindromi risiede nel volume extracellulare (ECV), ridotto nella RSW e normale o leggermente aumentato nella SIADH. Le difficoltà nella diagnosi differenziale di questa sindrome e nella comprensione del preciso meccanismo patogenetico hanno contribuito a mettere in discussione l'esistenza stessa di RSW. Considerando le caratteristiche della RSW, è stato studiato il possibile ruolo dei peptidi natriuretici per spiegare la sua patogenesi come ANP e BNP, con risultati inso…
Condizioni economiche delle isole e politiche di riequilibrio delle disparità territoriali
2022
The results of scientific research confirm that the condition of insularity is an issue that still needs broad sharing and specific policies. The issues to be addressed are widespread in all territorial contexts, large or small. Insularity is a permanent structural constraint. Even though convergence policies have contributed to the convergence process between countries and regions, EU policies for the islands must be envisaged to define joint action to achieve a more balanced territorial equity.
