Un nuovo manoscritto di canzoni siciliane con ottave inedite attribuite ad Antonio Veneziano

2020

Si presenta una nuova antologia manoscritta di canzoni siciliane, conservata a Catania presso un privato e databile intorno al 1600, che contiene una cospicua sezione di più di cinquanta ‘ottave’ intestate a vari autori accanto a 349 'canzuni' in massima parte adespote. Il manoscritto fu donato da un certo Lelio, da identificare probabilmente con Lelio Pavese (ob. 1608), a Paolo Pozzobonelli (1572-1630), entrambi nobili savonesi. nel segmento finale del manoscritto si rinviene una pregevole serie di ventidue ottave encomiastiche e di prigionia attribuite ad Antonio Veneziano “carcerato” e indirizzate a Francesco Santapau, principe di Butera, tra il 1588 e il 1590: se ne dà l’edizione commen…

Phylogenetic profiling and cellular analyses of ARL16 reveal roles in traffic of IFT140 and INPP5E

2021

ABSTRACTThe ARF family of regulatory GTPases is ancient, with 16 members predicted to have been present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor. Our phylogenetic profiling of paralogs in diverse species identified four family members whose presence correlates with that of a cilium/flagellum: ARL3, ARL6, ARL13, and ARL16. No prior evidence links ARL16 to cilia or other cell functions, despite its presence throughout eukaryotes. Deletion of ARL16 in MEFs results in decreased ciliogenesis yet increased ciliary length. We also found Arl16 KO in MEFs to alter ciliary protein content, including loss of ARL13B, ARL3, INPP5E, and the IFT-A core component IFT140. Instead, both INPP5E and IFT140 accum…

Are Repeated Self-Reports of Psychological Variables Feasible for Patients Near the End of Life at a Palliative Care Unit?

2018

Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measurement is crucial to assess the benefit of psychotherapeutic interventions. Is repeated assessment of psychometric self-report data possible, as inpatient palliative care patients suffer from physical and psychological symptoms? What is the self-perceived strain caused by the assessment? Objective The main objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of a repeated comprehensive psychometric self-assessment of inpatient palliative care patients. Secondary objectives were the PROs of the psychometric assessment.We conducted a prospective cohort study. Patients admitted to our palliative care unit (PCU) were reviewed for eligibility within 72 h…

Inpatient Step Counts, Symptom Severity, and Perceived Health Status After Lung Resection Surgery.

2020

BACKGROUND The clinical relevance of inpatient step counts after lung surgery remains unknown. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify those factors related to physical activity measured by step count, during the inpatient stay, and its relationship with symptom severity and perceived health status at hospital admission, discharge, and 1 month after discharge. METHODS We studied the inpatient step count of 73 participants who underwent lung resection surgery. The number of steps was measured using a triaxial accelerometer. The health status and the severity of symptoms were examined at hospital admission, discharge, and 1 month after discharge. RESULTS Of the 73 participants, 35 wer…

Ventricular-vascular coupling in hypertension: methodological considerations and clinical implications.

2014

The present review is addressed to analyse the complex interplay between left ventricle and arterial tree in hypertension. The different methodological approaches to the analysis of ventricular vascular coupling in the time and frequency domain are discussed. Moreover, the role of hypertension-related changes of arterial structure and function (stiffness and wave reflection) on arterial load and how ventricular-vascular coupling modulates the process of left ventricular adaptation to hypertension are analysed.The different interplay between vascular bed and left ventricle emerges as the pathophysiological basis for the development of the multiple patterns of ventricular structural adaptatio…

Face Inpainting via Nested Generative Adversarial Networks

2019

Face inpainting aims to repaired damaged images caused by occlusion or cover. In recent years, deep learning based approaches have shown promising results for the challenging task of image inpainting. However, there are still limitation in reconstructing reasonable structures because of over-smoothed and/or blurred results. The distorted structures or blurred textures are inconsistent with surrounding areas and require further post-processing to blend the results. In this paper, we present a novel generative model-based approach, which consisted by nested two Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN), the sub-confrontation GAN in generator and parent-confrontation GAN. The sub-confrontation GAN…

Input-to-state stability for discrete-time nonlinear switched singular systems

2016

Discrete-time nonlinear switched singular systems (SSSs) are investigated.The input-to-state stability (ISS) problems for discrete-time nonlinear SSSs are concerned.The ISS criteria are obtained via average dwell time approach and iterative algorithm of discrete-time systems.The switching rules are optimized and designed. This paper investigates the input-to-state stability (ISS) problems for a class of discrete-time nonlinear switched singular systems (SSSs). Two novel ISS criteria are proposed based on average dwell time (ADT) approach and iterative algorithm of discrete-time systems (IADS). In particular, the following two cases are considered for the underlying systems: the first case i…

Dissipativity-Based Small-Gain Theorems for Stochastic Network Systems

2016

In this paper, some small-gain theorems are proposed for stochastic network systems which describe large-scale systems with interconnections, uncertainties and random disturbances. By the aid of conditional dissipativity and showing times of stochastic interval, small-gain conditions proposed for the deterministic case are extended to the stochastic case. When some design parameters are tunable in practice, we invaginate a simpler method to verify small-gain condition by selecting one subsystem as a monitor. Compared with the existing results, the existence-and-uniqueness of solution and ultimate uniform boundedness of input are removed from requirements of input-to-state stability and smal…

The role of hedonics in the Human Affectome.

2019

International audience; Experiencing pleasure and displeasure is a fundamental part of life. Hedonics guide behavior, affect decision-making, induce learning, and much more. As the positive and negative valence of feelings, hedonics are core processes that accompany emotion, motivation, and bodily states. Here, the affective neuroscience of pleasure and displeasure that has largely focused on the investigation of reward and pain processing, is reviewed. We describe the neurobiological systems of hedonics and factors that modulate hedonic experiences (e.g., cognition, learning, sensory input). Further, we review maladaptive and adaptive pleasure and displeasure functions in mental disorders …
