Childhood Maltreatment, Pathological Personality Dimensions, and Suicide Risk in Young Adults

2019

Several studies have demonstrated that child maltreatment (psychological, physical, and sexual abuse, and neglect) may be a significant factor in the development of pathological personality traits that increase the risk for suicidal ideation and behavior from adolescence to adulthood. Currently, the challenge is to understand how different forms of early negative experiences render an individual prone to develop specific personality traits and, in turn, be more vulnerable to suicide risk. To understand the relationship between childhood maltreatment and personality dimensions in suicide risk, our study aims to explore the role of self-criticism and dependency, two different pathological per…

Gestione clinica del comportamento suicida in schizofrenia

2017

Circa 1 persona su 20 affetta da schizofrenia morirà prematuramente per suicidio (Inskip, Harris, e Barraclough, 1998; Palmer, Pankratz, e Bostwick, 2005) e si stima che il 20% 50% realizzerà almeno un tentativo di suicidio nel corso della vita (Caldwell & Gottesman, 1990; Meltzer, 2002). La maggior parte dei suicidi portati a termine si verificano precocemente nel corso della malattia, con un rischio particolarmente alto nelle prime settimane dopo la dimissione dal primo ricovero (Appleby, Dennehy, Thomas, Faragher, e Lewis, 1999; Rossau & Mortensen, 1997), seguite dal primo anno e dai primi dieci anni dopo la diagnosi (Nordentoft et al, 2004; Palmer et al, 2005). Anche il periodo …

Fixed fuzzy points of fuzzy mappings in Hausdorff fuzzy metric spaces with application

2015

Recently, Phiangsungnoen et al. [J. Inequal. Appl. 2014:201 (2014)] studied fuzzy mappings in the framework of Hausdorff fuzzy metric spaces. Following this direction of research, we establish the existence of fixed fuzzy points of fuzzy mappings. An example is given to support the result proved herein; we also present a coincidence and common fuzzy point result. Finally, as an application of our results, we investigate the existence of solution for some recurrence relations associated to the analysis of quicksort algorithms.

Le poche luci e le molte ombre dei disegni di legge italiani in tema di morte medicalmente assistita

2022

The research analyzes the recent Italian draft laws on Medical Assistance in dying, their strengths and several shortcomings, comparing them with other European laws on this subject. The Italian draft laws are not fully hinged on the exercise of self-de- termination of the suffering person but remain bound to the reference to a condition of proximity to death or the presence of life-sustaining treatments, which in fact cause unjustified inequities in access to a health service aimed at protecting the dignity of the person. Furthermore, the articulation of the procedures for requesting and assessing suitability outlined in the Italian bills does not allow to fully protect the person in a con…

A particular case of suicide committed with a double barreled shotgun

2011

Self-injuries are some of the most frequently causes of death in youth; suicides has been reported as the second or third most common cause of death in children and adolescents worldwide. The autors describe a particular case of suicide of a 17-year-old-boy, who was found dead on the floor of his bedroom with a large shogun contact wound on his head.

New-stage discharge relationships for free and submerged sluice gates

2012

Abstract The flow movement through a sluice gate is investigated for both free and submerged flow conditions. For free flow condition, the current dimensionless formula, indicated acceptable accuracy; while for submerged flow condition it was modified especially for low submerged condition. In this regard, Buckingham theorem along with the Incomplete Self-Similarity concept was employed and a new stage–discharge relationship was developed accordingly. Also, to achieve a suitable formula for submerged flow condition being accurate in low submergence, the maximum tailwater depth allowing the free flow condition and head loss factor were identified as missing parameters in the functional dimen…
