Mandibular odontogenic myxoma : reconstructive considerations by means of the vascularized fibular free flap

2006

The odontogenic myxoma is a rare entity located in mandible and upper maxilla. Due to its local aggressiveness, wide surgical excision is mandatory. Several surgical techniques have been described for the reconstruction of segmental mandibular defects. In comparison with other free flaps, the vascularized free fibular flap (VFFF) supports the longest amount of bone and, due to the nature of the vascular supply a complete freedom in location of the osteotomy is present. A precise mandibular arc can be performed following bone resection. We suggest the performance of the ?in situ? VFFF technique in order to recreate mandibular contour by means of several osteotomies, while the pedicle is stil…

Una stima dell’occupazione straniera per regione

2010

Foreigners are a very important resource for Italy not only for the evolution of the Italian society (through for example the contribution they provide to the natural balance, with a fertility rate about twice that of Italian) but also for their important role in our labor market (see Istat, 2009). But when we want to measure the dimension of phenomenon and, through it, to determine significance levels of foreign presence in the territory, there is enormous difficulties in the collection of information. In this job to solve this problem we consider small area estimation methods. We use the continuous labor force survey conducted by ISTAT for the year 2008. Then to choose the best model we c…

Street art e rigenerazione urbana? Spazio pubblico e immagini di città oltre le retoriche

2022

Se negli ultimi anni l’interesse e il dibattito sull’arte nello spazio pubblico è crescente - nelle molteplici declinazioni di arte partecipata, partecipativa, engagé - è la street art ad essere oggi il linguaggio visuale prediletto. Una forma di arte urbana che sta diventando virale, connotando lo spazio e situandosi spesso al suo margine, nelle zone al limite. Nata come anti-capitalista e ribelle, considerata da alcuni un fastidio, da altri uno strumento per comunicare opinioni di dissenso, oggi la street art sembra perdere il suo carattere informale e underground per entrare in programmi istituzionali di rigenerazione urbana, promossa da amministrazioni e istituzioni culturali, diventand…

Collezioni visive negli spazi urbani: i luoghi della street art a Parigi | Visual Collections in Urban Spaces: the Sites of Street Art in Paris

2017

With its different forms, styles and ways of execution, Street Art is one of the visual culture languages that are now increasingly present in urban spaces. From a fleeting action that was often accomplished in an unauthorized manner, it has also established itself as an authorized practice, thus becoming an institutional instrument and a new way of visual redefinition of certain urban areas. The concept of Street Art is by no means unitary, but it could rather be seen as a complex and stratified communicative phenomenon that redefines itself by way of its specific modes of intervention in urban spaces. Starting from a series of observations and micro-analyses conducted in two urban areas o…

The Spatial Overlap of Police Calls Reporting Street-Level and Behind-Closed-Doors Crime: A Bayesian Modeling Approach

2021

Traditionally, intimate-partner violence has been considered a special type of crime that occurs behind closed doors, with different characteristics from street-level crime. The aim of this study is to analyze the spatial overlap of police calls reporting street-level and behind-closed-doors crime. We analyzed geocoded police calls in the 552 census-block groups of the city of Valencia, Spain, related to street-level crime (N = 26,624) and to intimate-partner violence against women (N = 11,673). A Bayesian joint model was run to analyze the spatial overlap. In addition, two Bayesian hierarchical models controlled for different neighborhood characteristics to analyze the relative risks. Resu…

Past, present, and future of green product innovation

2021

Firms are under constant pressure from various governmental and nongovernmental agencies to switch from conventional environmentally polluting products to green product innovations (GPIs). However, the relevant research pertaining to GPI has been published in a diverse set of journals that vary in their scope and readership and, therefore, the scholarly contribution to the topic remains largely fragmented. This study has utilised a systematic literature review approach to examine the literary corpus on GPI to paint a holistic picture of its different aspects. The content and thematic analysis of 85 studies resulted in the extraction of seven key research themes: organisational capabilities,…

The Italian approach to the dual careers of University student-athletes

2019

In the last decade, the topic of the dual careers of student-athletes has received increasing attention across Europe, both from many scholars in several different fields and from the European Union. In the European Union lexicon, the term ‘dual career’ means that an athlete can combine, without unreasonable personal effort, their sporting career with education and/or work in a flexible way through high-quality training in order to protect their moral, health, educational and professional interests without compromising either objective, with a particular focus on the continued formal education of young athletes. The basic idea behind several dual career programs to aid the student-athlete i…

Inter-annotator agreement in spoken language annotation: Applying uα-family coefficients to discourse segmentation

2021

As databases make Corpus Linguistics a common tool for most linguists, corpus annotation becomes an increasingly important process. Corpus users do not need only raw data, but also annotated data, submitted to tagging or parsing processes through annotation protocols. One problem with corpus annotation lies in its reliability, that is, in the probability that its results can be replicable by independent researchers. Inter-annotation agreement (IAA) is the process which evaluates the probability that, applying the same protocol, different annotators reach similar results. To measure agreement, different statistical metrics are used. This study applies IAA for the first time to the Valencia E…
