The Economic Burden of Child Maltreatment in High Income Countries.
2015
Maltreatment is a common cause of children’s functional and emotional impairment. Costs for the society are high, as a substantial amount of resources have been allocated for various types of services connected to maltreatment of children. These include acute treatment, long-termcare, family rehabilitation programs, and judiciary activities.There is a long-lasting debate on how child abuse could be prevented or reduced. How can the costs of related services be contained? What is the role of pediatricians in such efforts? This article raises these important questions within the framework of the debate opened by the article by Gerber-Grote et al regarding the role of health economics in impro…
Traumatic experiences in childhood and psychopathy: a study on a sample of violent offenders from Italy
2013
Background: The link between early traumatic experiences of abuse/neglect and criminal behaviour has been widely demonstrated. Less is known, however, about the relationship between these experiences and the development of psychopathic personality. Objective: This study investigated childhood relational trauma in a group of violent offenders from Italy. We hypothesised a higher level of early relational trauma associated with higher scores on psychopathy. Method: Twenty-two offenders convicted for violent crimes aged 22-60 (M=38, SD=11) participated in this study. Participants were selected by the Italian justice system for an experimental research programme aiming at the evaluation of psyc…
How consistent are the transcriptome changes associated with cold acclimation in two species of the Drosophila virilis group?
2015
This work was financially support by a Marie Curie Initial Training Network grant, “Understanding the evolutionary origin of biological diversity” (ITN-2008–213780 SPECIATION), grants from the Academy of Finland to A.H. (project 132619) and M.K. (projects 268214 and 272927), a grant from NERC, UK to M.G.R. (grant NE/J020818/1), and NERC, UK PhD studentship to D.J.P. (NE/I528634/1). For many organisms the ability to cold acclimate with the onset of seasonal cold has major implications for their fitness. In insects, where this ability is widespread, the physiological changes associated with increased cold tolerance have been well studied. Despite this, little work has been done to trace chang…
Dissecting multilingual Beijing : the space and scale of vernacular globalization

Dove appendi un'allegoria? Cosa (non) era il realismo socialista.
2014
I due quadri con cui Michail Chmel'ko vinse il premio Stalin si basano entrambi su modelli chiaramente riconoscibili, ma appartenenti a periodi e correnti assolutamente diversi: Jacques-Louis David e Il'ja Repin. Le coordinate stilistiche del Realismo Socialista erano dunque costruite a partire dal recupero di elementi spuri e spesso non dichiarati. L'analisi dei rapporti così ricostruiti offre l'opportunità di ridiscutere gli assunti base del realismo socialista insieme alle interpretazioni critiche correnti. Mikhail Khmelko's two Stalin-prize winning paintings are both patterned on clearly recognizable models, such different as Jacques-Louis David and Ilia Repin. The stylistic coordinates…
Combined effect of solvent content, temperature and pH on the chromatographic behaviour of ionisable compounds. III: Considerations about robustness
2009
Abstract We previously reported a model able to predict the retention time of ionisable compounds as a function of the solvent content, temperature and pH [J. Chromatogr. A 1163 (2007) 49]. The model was applied further, developing an optimisation of the resolution based on the peak purity concept [J. Chromatogr. A 1193 (2008) 117]. However, we left aside an important issue: we did not consider incidental overlaps caused by shifts in the predicted peak positions, owing either to uncertainties in the source data, modelling errors, or the practical implementation in the chromatograph of the optimal mobile phase (or any other). These shifts can ruin the predicted separation, since they can eas…
Valodas nozīme personības raksturiezīmju atklāsmē Cicerona vēstulēs
2019
Šī maģistra darba mērķis ir izpētīt noteiktu adresātu vēstules dažādos Cicerona dzīves posmos, mēģinot noskaidrot, kā vēstulēs caur valodu, kādiem mākslinieciskās izteiksmes līdzekļiem, atklājas Cicerona personības spilgtākās šķautnes, un to, vai tās atšķiras privāta rakstura vēstulēs un publiskā sarakstē. Mēģināts noskaidrot, vai ir pamanāmas atšķirības izteiksmē tuvākiem cilvēkiem vai, teiksim, politiskiem oponentiem. Tāpēc, lai varētu aplūkot pēc iespējas atšķirīgākus adresātus, tika izvēlēti tuvākie ģimenes locekļi un draugi, kā arī vēsturiski zināmas Romas autoritātes, ar kurām Cicerons bija uzturējis saraksti. Darba gaitā tiek aplūkots Cicerona atstātais epistolārais mantojums, apskat…
La hermenéutica materialista
2014
Adorno formula per la prima volta il programma della Teoria Critica come "ermeneutica materialista". Dopo la "svolta ermeneutica" della filosofia nella seconda metà del ventesimo secolo, questo saggio cerca di stabilire il profilo dell’ermeneutica di Adorno. Come una critica dell’idealismo semantico e di tutti gli idealismi, questa ermeneutica fissa un nuovo statuto per la filosofia dopo Hegel, in un dialogo critico con le scienze, con la "genealogia" di Nietzsche, con l’"inconscio" di Freud, e con un importante re-interpretazione dell’undicesima tesi su Feuerbach di Marx.
Struktūra un fotofizikālie procesi 0D un 1D InGaN kompozītu materiālos
2014
Šajā disertācijā tiek aprakstīti strukturālās un fotofizikālās MOCVD izaudzēto GaN nanovadu (NV) un InGaN kvantu punktu (KP) īpašības. Abos gadījumos ir parādīts, ka ex-situ RHEED mērījumi ir iespējami un sniedz kvalitatīvu informāciju par struktūru. Kombinācijā ar citām metodēm, pirmkārt, ir parādīts, ka nemetāliskā katalizatora veicinātā GaN NV īpašības, kad sintezēts uz GaN (0001) virsmas, atšķiras no tradicionāli iegūtajiem. Šinī gadījumā katalizators lokalizējas pie nanovadu pamatnes nevis tā galā un augšanas virziens ir atšķirīgs no kristalogrāfiskās c-ass, rezultātā iegūstot semipolārās NV struktūras. Otrkārt, InGaN kvantu punktos ir konstatēt saspiesta kristāliskā režģa struktūra au…
La tutela della concorrenza nella Repubblica Popolare Cinese
2014
La tesi dal titolo “La tutela della concorrenza nella Repubblica Popolare Cinese” si propone di affrontare l’intricato problema dell’armonizzazione dei principi della concorrenza in un sistema economico in via di transizione quale quello cinese. L’attenzione sulla questione è stata stimolata dall’emanazione della legge antimonopoli, entrata in vigore nell’agosto del 2008, che ha conosciuto le sue prime applicazioni concrete nel corso di questi primi cinque anni . Cercando di non lasciarsi sviare dalla tentazione di giudicare la normativa antitrust paese asiatico sul presupposto di una presunta superiorità degli ordinamenti dei paesi occidentali, che in materia posseggono una tradizioni di o…
