Maternal Competence, Maternal Burnout and Personality Traits in Italian Mothers after the First COVID-19 Lockdown
2022
This study aimed to investigate the maternal sense of competence and maternal burnout in Italian mothers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The sample was composed of 278 mothers of children/adolescents aged 4 to 17 years old. Participants were recruited after the end of the first spring total Italian lockdown (June–October 2020) through online advertisements on websites and social media. We hypothesized a model in which a specific personality trait, such as neuroticism, affected maternal competence by the mediating role of maternal burnout. Results showed that neuroticism was directly and negatively predictive of perception of maternal competence, and it was negatively associated with maternal …
Visibilidad LGTB en tiempos de 'gilets jaunes' analizando espacios culturales de París
2020
La presente investigación se plantea como un acercamiento a distintos espacios urbanos alternativos franceses desde una perspectiva LGTB. La recogida de datos se hizo a partir de entrevistas semiestructuradas a distintos responsables de espacios culturales y a jóvenes directores de cine. También se hace servir el análisis de los datos conocidos en base a una observación participante, ya que este trabajo parte de una experiencia personal llevada a cabo en París durante entre 2018 y 2019. En el plazo de dos años hemos detectado un importante cambio de la situación en lo referido a la visibilidad y percepción de la diversidad sexual en el ámbito francés. Y todo ello sin perder de vista el impa…

Il ruolo della cultura nel progetto comunitario di Adriano Olivetti
2021
Adriano Olivetti (1901-1960) was the promoter of an unprecedented business project that not only concerned the economic sphere, but also included architecture, social development, politics, the value of the person and of the culture. This paper examines the educational role played by culture in the Olivetti’s project as a way of human growth. To clarify the identity of the Olivetti’s culture, various sources were questioned: the personal library, the editorial choices, his coworkers and the good educational practices carried out in the Olivetti factory. These are pieces of a mosaic through which was possible to reconstruct the Olivettian ideal of a culture that, placed at the center of its …

Standardisation of diet and exercise in clinical trials of NAFLD-NASH: Recommendations from the Liver Forum
2019
Abstract: Lifestyle modification is the foundation of treatment recommendations for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The design of clinical trials in NASH may be impeded by the lack of a systematic approach to identify and evaluate how lifestyle changes and/or modifications influence clinical trial outcomes and associated endpoints. Furthermore, there are additional uncertainties regarding the methods that can be utilised to better characterise and quantify lifestyle variables - which can influence disease activity and alter trial endpoints - to allow for comparisons of trial outcomes across different phases of research and/or within drug-c…
Prolidase deficiency in two dermatological patients in western Sicily
2020
Prolidase deficiency is a rare disorder inherited through an autosomal recessive gene. The hallmark of the disorder are iminodipeptiduria, chronic skin ulcers, recurring infections, mental retardation and characteristic facial appearance, although prolidase deficiency can occur with no clinical manifestation. The primary biological function of the enzyme involves the metabolism of collagen degradation products and the recycling of proline for collagen resynthesis. We describe two patients with prolidase deficiency and review the different clinical manifestations suggesting the pathogenetic mechanism through few hypotheses.

The role of adolescent lifestyle habits in biological aging: A prospective twin study
2022
Adolescence is a stage of fast growth and development. Exposures during puberty can have long-term effects on health in later life. This study aims to investigate the role of adolescent lifestyle in biological aging.The study participants originated from the longitudinal FinnTwin12 study (n = 5114). Adolescent lifestyle-related factors, including body mass index (BMI), leisure-time physical activity, smoking, and alcohol use, were based on self-reports and measured at ages 12, 14, and 17 years. For a subsample, blood-based DNA methylation (DNAm) was used to assess biological aging with six epigenetic aging measures in young adulthood (21-25 years, n = 824). A latent class analysis was condu…
