TERAPIA DELLA SARCOPENIA
2014
La sarcopenia e la cachessia sono i disordini muscolari più comune negli adulti. La principale differenza tra le due condizioni è che, a livello istologico, la sarcopenia rappresenta una condizione età correlata che si accompagna a neurodegenerazione, mentre la cachessia è una malattia infiammatoria del muscolo, che è associata a perdita di tessuto adiposo e ad anoressia. E’ stato dimostrato che entrambe le condizioni, nonostante le differenze nella etiologia e fisiopatologia, rispondono positivamente a trattamenti che aumentano la massa e la forza muscolare. Il gold standard attuale della terapia della sarcopenia è l'esercizio fisico. Inoltre, esistono una serie di farmaci che sono disponi…
Liberalizing Immigration Policies for the UK Agricultural Sector in the Post-Brexit Era
2022
We investigate the effects of immigration policies on the UK agricultural sector under the new post-Brexit deal through a computable general equilibrium framework. We consider bilateral flows of migrants and frictions as part of capital and labor mobility to compare the point-based immigration system to open immigration policies in terms of their impacts on agriculture. We also integrate the GTAP-GMig2 immigration model with the GTAP-AGR agriculture model. Our findings show that liberal immigration policies have positive effects on production, farmers’ income, and overall welfare. The benefits increase if these policies are combined with reduced bureaucracy and lower behind-the-border costs…
European Banking System - Before and After Brexit -
2021
Abstract The history of the last 15 years has been marked by many events at European level, some which led to the last wave of EU enlargement in 2013, with the accession of Croatia, others that led European authorities to take radical action in order to overcome the crisis of 2007-2008, and recently the pandemic crisis of 2020, and the others that marked the first contraction of the European Union since its establishment, together with the decision of Great Britain to no longer be part of the European Union, a phenomenon known as Brexit. Starting from the important role that Great Britain played in the European Union, London being a famous financial and banking center, through this paper we…
Las raíces del 'Brexit': institucionalización del euroescepticismo
2021
El Reino Unido votó abandonar la Unión Europea el 23 de junio de 2016, con un 51,9% de votos. Fue una decisión que sorprendió a todo el mundo, pese a que un análisis de la relación entre ambos actores puede denotar cierta ajenidad en el comportamiento del Estado británico respecto al organismo supranacional. Es por esto por lo que la tesis del presente estudio va a ser que la campaña del Leave basó sus argumentos en cuestiones identitarias y emocionales, para lo que reprodujeron las tradiciones históricas de la relación entre el Reino Unido y la Unión Europea. Para defenderla, se analizarán las razones esgrimidas en la campaña del Referéndum del 2016, a fin de buscar una explicación del fra…
Brexit and Anti-Parliament Discourses among Conservative MPs (2016–2019)
2020
Abstract Brexit seems to have produced a new form of narrative in the Conservative Party in which some Conservative MPs brand themselves first and foremost as representatives of ‘the people’. Following on from the 2016 EU referendum, a new discourse has become prominent in the party and has also been developed as a new critique of the British Parliament. An analysis of Hansard debates between July 2016 and December 2019 helps identify different forms of anti-Parliament narrative which denounce the paralysis of the legislative process as well as its anti-democratic and conspiratorial features. By doing so, they reveal a radical departure from the historic values of the Conservative party suc…
How Brexit affects EU external action: The UK’s legacy in European international cooperation
2018
Abstract What exactly Brexit means for British engagement in European external affairs and development cooperation, is highly unclear, while its potential impact is considerable. After the general election in the UK on 8 June 2017, uncertainty regarding the direction, process and timing of the Brexit negotiations and the risk of a disorderly separation have risen further. The government position of a ‘hard Brexit’ seems no longer to be carved in stone. Yet, given the expected – total or partial – withdrawal of a major EU member state, like any area of EU politics, also European development policy faces a number of challenges: short-term problems regarding existing legal obligations, looming…
European comission's identity during brexit : a communication strategy change on twitter
2021
The European Union (EU) was founded to promote peace, prosperity and other values between an increasing number of member states (European Commission, 2001). However, Brexit has activated a reputation crisis that reinforces Euroscepticism (Borzel; Risse, 2018). The objective of the study is to identify the differences in the semantic construction and thematic framing of the European Commission during a two-year period, previous to Brexit and after Brexit, on a sample of 4827 tweets posted by the European Commission. Findings show that in the period before Brexit, the EU is presented as an abstract political body, highly informative on major crisis, and reactively framing messages with values…
Phylogeny and morphology of Anthracoidea pamiroalaica sp. nov. infecting the endemic sedge Carex koshewnikowii in the Pamir Alai Mts (Tajikistan)
2015
A novel Anthracoidea species, A. pamiroalaica on the endemic sedge Carex koshewnikowii, is described and illustrated from the Pamir Alai Mts in Tajikistan (Central Asia). The new species is phenotypically nearly identical with Anthracoidea sempervirentis, but clearly divergent genetically. Phylogenetic analyses based on LSU sequences showed affinity of Anthracoidea pamiroalaica to A. baldensis, A. rupestris, A. capillaris, and A. vankyi infecting host sedges in different Carex sections (Baldenses, Rupestres, Chlorostachyae, and Phaestoglochin, respectively), but not to A. misandrae, and A. sempervirentis, two sequenced species parasitic on host species from the section Aulocystis. This phyl…
Electric field control of the spin state in mixed-valence magnetic molecules.
2012
Multiferroic molecules for spintronics: In a many-electron mixed-valence dimer with dominant double exchange, as compared with antiferromagnetic superexchange, the electric field is shown to induce a spin crossover from the ferromagnetic spin state to the antiferromagnetic one. This leads to a sharp decrease in the magnetic moment of the molecule and a simultaneous stepwise increase in the electric dipole (see figure).
Pigmentazioni dentarie da clorexidina: una revisione critica

OBIETTIVI Obiettivo di questo lavoro è proporre una revisione critica della letteratura sulle pigmentazioni orali indotte dalla clorexidina, in particolare sul meccanismo di formazione delle pigmentazioni, sulla loro prevalenza, sui fattori che ne influenzano l’insorgenza e la gravità e sull’efficacia clinica del sistema antipigmentazione a base di sodio metabisolfito e di acido ascorbico (ADS). MATERIALI E METODI È stata effettuata una ricerca bibliografica utilizzando in combinazione le seguenti parole chiave: Chlorhexidine, Mouthwash, Staining, Anti-Discoloration System, Gingivitis, Plaque.
