Weighting non-covalent forces in the molecular recognition of C60. Relevance of concave–convex complementarity
2008
The relative contributions of several weak intermolecular forces to the overall stability of the complexes formed between structurally related receptors and [60]fullerene are compared, revealing a discernible contribution from concave–convex complementarity.

How endogenous asymmetries in interregional market access trigger regional divergence
2005
International audience; We investigate how asymmetric trade patterns in differentiated products affect the regional distribution of economic activities. The asymmetry in interregional market access is an endogenous result of price competition and industry location and arises for intermediate values of trade costs. We show that the emergence of one-way trade in differentiated products gives rise to strong agglomeration forces and leads to the absorption of the smaller region's industry by the larger region. The number of spatial equilibria increases once the pattern of trade is endogenously accounted for.
Convergence analysis for hierarchical longitudinal data
2018
Abstract Convergence analysis is typically envisaged either from a macro or a micro perspective. However, empirical tests tend to ignore that the two levels are often “nested” in a hierarchy. Building on hierarchical growth curve modelling, we propose an approach to convergence analysis that allows contemporaneous inference on macro and micro-convergence. Compared to the classic linear convergence analysis, the suggested methodology provides a more flexible alternative to model heterogeneity and validate the results for possible Galton's fallacy. We illustrate the approach in two empirical examples, one considering convergence across European regions and countries and the other across Itali…
Farmacovigilanza in oncologia: l'esperienza di un centro dedicato nella Regione Sicilia
2015
Introduzione Dal gennaio 2003, la Regione Sicilia ha attivato un Progetto per l’Organizzazione della Farmacovigilanza regionale, che si è fortemente interessato all’oncologia con l’istituzione di un Centro dedicato. Materiali e metodi Sono state analizzate le segnalazioni di sospette reazioni avverse (ADR) da farmaci oncologici inserite nella Rete Nazionale di Farmacovigilanza in Sicilia nel 2014. Le segnalazioni sono state classificate per fonte, gravità, caratteristiche dei pazienti, categorie terapeutiche dei farmaci imputati e secondo il System Organ Class, dizionario MedDRA. Risultati Si sono avute 805 segnalazioni di ADR in ambito oncologico, pari al 20,5% delle segnalazioni totali re…
The cyclopentenone-type prostaglandin 15-deoxy-delta12,14-prostaglandin J2 inhibits CD95 ligand gene expression in T lymphocytes: interference with p…
2003
Abstract 15-Deoxy-Δ12,14-PGJ2 (15d-PGJ2) is a cyclopentenone-type PG endowed with anti-inflammatory properties and produced by different cells, including those of the immune system. 15d-PGJ2 is a natural ligand of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ nuclear receptor, but relevant PPARγ-independent actions mediated by this prostanoid have been described. Fas (APO-1/CD95) and its ligand (Fas-L) are cell surface proteins whose interaction activates apoptosis of Fas-expressing targets. In T cells, the Fas-Fas-L system regulates activation-induced cell death and has been implicated in diseases in which lymphocyte homeostasis is compromised. Moreover, several studies have desc…
Gaspare Ambrosini. Dal fascismo all’invenzione dell’autonomia siciliana
2018
This work traces the work of Gaspare Ambrosini (1886-1985) along three different ones Italian political systems of the twentieth century: liberal, fascist and republican. In each of these three epochs, Ambrosini played a leading role not only from the point of view of intellectual reflection and of the academic profession, but above all in that of militant political commitment. His is the first innovative reflection on the birth of the system of mass parties after the introduction of suffrage universal (male) immediately after the great war; his is the elaboration of the one-party system fascist; his is the creation of the first systematization of imperial and racist theories after the conq…
A second-order sparse factorization method for Poisson's equation with mixed boundary conditions
1992
Abstract We propose an algorithm for solving Poisson's equation on general two-dimensional regions with an arbitrary distribution of Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The algebraic system, generated by the five-point star discretization of the Laplacian, is solved iteratively by repeated direct sparse inversion of an approximating system whose coefficient matrix — the preconditioner — is second-order both in the interior and on the boundary. The present algorithm for mixed boundary value problems generalizes a solver for pure Dirichlet problems (proposed earlier by one of the authors in this journal (1989)) which was found to converge very fast for problems with smooth solutions.
