IL-17 Inhibition in Spondyloarthritis Associates with Subclinical Gut Microbiome Perturbations and a Distinctive IL-25-Driven Intestinal Inflammation
2020
To characterize the ecological effects of biologic therapies on the gut bacterial and fungal microbiome of psoriatic arthritis (PsA)/spondyloarthritis (SpA) patients.
Metabolic abnormalities associated with initiation of systemic treatment for psoriasis: evidence from the Italian Psocare Registry
2013
Objective To evaluate variations in laboratory parameters and diagnoses of selected clinical conditions up to 16 weeks after starting a new systemic psoriasis treatment for Psocare Registry enrollees. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Italian public referral centres for psoriasis treatment. Patients First-time recipients (n = 10,539) of continuous systemic psoriasis treatment for at least 16 weeks. Main outcome measure Mean variations in (weeks 8 and 16) and proportions of patients reaching a clinically meaningful increase in serum levels (week 16) of total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, aspartate amino transferase, alanine amino transferase and creatinine, a…

Land Use History and Site Formation Processes at the Punic Site of Pauli Stincus in West Central Sardinia
2013
The site of Pauli Stincus is located near the town of Terralba, on the inland shores of the Gulf of Oristano in west central Sardinia, Italy, and was occupied between the mid-4th and the late 2nd century B.C. The site and its surroundings were the object of a joint archaeopedological and geomorphological study, which complemented the data from archaeological excavations. This study allowed us to evaluate the suitability of the different landscape and soil components for crop production in the Punic period. The discovery of a buried plow soil at the site's edge enabled us to identify a set of agricultural practices carried out by Punic farmers. These included the removal of sandy topsoil to …

Automated Integration and Communication Synthesis of Reconfigurable MPSoC Platform
2007
The communication synthesis is the main problematic in the multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC). To resolve this problem, several methodologies can be used. These methodologies require automated methods to specify, generate and optimize the hardware, software, and the architectural interfaces between them. In this paper, we present a methodology flow for hardware-software communication synthesis for multiprocessor system-on-chip platform which are dedicated to streaming applications. Our methodology consists of high level architecture communication synthesis from functional description of the MPSoC design. The solution that we propose consists in synthesizing a custom bus architecture for …
Long-term effects of contrasting tillage systems on soil C and N pools and on main microbial groups differ by crop sequence
2021
Abstract Determining the best conservation agriculture practices for increasing soil organic carbon (C) and hence soil quality is of paramount importance in the semi-arid Mediterranean environment, where soils are experiencing a continuous decline in organic matter. Therefore, the aim of this long-term study was to assess the combined effects of tillage system and crop sequence on soil organic C and biochemical properties of soil generally used as indicators of soil quality. After 23 years of continuous application of contrasting tillage systems (conventional tillage [CT], vs. no tillage [NT]) and crop sequences (wheat monoculture vs. wheat-faba bean rotation), soil samples were collected f…
Spatial Distribution of Soil Hydrological Properties in the Kilombero Floodplain, Tanzania
2017
Analysis and interpretation of soil properties dynamics is a keystone in understanding the hydrologic responses and yield potential of floodplain wetlands. This study characterizes the distribution and spatial trends of selected soil physical properties in the Kilombero floodplain, Tanzania. A total of 76 composite soil samples were taken from 0 to 20 cm and 20 to 40 cm depth in a regular grid design across three hydrological zones, related to flooding intensity defined as fringe, middle, and riparian during the rainy season of 2015. The samples were analyzed for soil texture, bulk density, organic carbon, and saturated hydraulic conductivity. Seasonal soil moisture content was monitored at…
The polarimetric and helioseismic imager on solar orbiter
2020
This paper describes the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager on the Solar Orbiter mission (SO/PHI), the first magnetograph and helioseismology instrument to observe the Sun from outside the Sun-Earth line. It is the key instrument meant to address the top-level science question: How does the solar dynamo work and drive connections between the Sun and the heliosphere? SO/PHI will also play an important role in answering the other top-level science questions of Solar Orbiter, as well as hosting the potential of a rich return in further science. SO/PHI measures the Zeeman effect and the Doppler shift in the FeI 617.3nm spectral line. To this end, the instrument carries out narrow-band imaging…
Bis(pyridylvinyl)diaminobenzenes: synthesis, acidochromism and solvatochromism of the fluorescence
2005
Abstract C2-symmetrical 1,4-distyrylbenzenes with 4-dimethylaminobenzene or pyridine as terminal rings, and propyloxy or dipropylamino groups in the central 2,5-positions were prepared. Solvatochromism of the absorption is small, but more pronounced in the fluorescence spectra. Some compounds exhibit huge Stokes shifts. Acid strongly alters the fluorescence: red shifts and decreasing quantum yields is the general result, but depending on the position and character of the basic sites, a strong recovery of fluorescence efficiency combined with large hypsochromic shifts may result in highly acidic solutions.
