"Oggetti liturgici e devozionali", in A. CIANCIOSI, L. DE FERRI, E. DESTEFANIS, C. MOINE, G. POJANA, D. VALLOTO, «Culti e reliquie»
Il contributo è oncentrato sul alcuni oggetti liturgici e devozionali che fanno parte del tesoro dell'abbazia nonantolana. Si tratta di reliquiari/portaostie e pissidi in legno, di una tavoletta lignea dipinta e di un castone con decorazione a filigrana, la cui tipologia ornamentale e il cui sistema di fissaggio rimanda a produzioni irlandesi di età altomedievale. I materiali sono presentati analiticamente, mentre una parte conclusiva ne discute contesti e funzion
HRT: il riscatto della donna. Da dove siamo venuti e dove andiamo
Per HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) si intende la somministrazione, in postmenopausa, di ormoni esogeni per sopperire alla riduzione dei livelli ormonali endogeni.
La cultura e la percezione dell’importanza della HRT nel trattamento dei sintomi menopausali sono state profondamente modificate dalla pubblicazione dello studio randomizzato WHI nel 2002.
Studi preclinici ed osservazionali pubblicati in precedenza avevano suggerito che la terapia ormonale sostitutiva potesse essere accompagnata da un beneficio per la salute della donna determinando una riduzione del rischio di malattia coronaria, di fratture da osteoporosi e dell’insorgenza di deficit cognitivi e demenza senil
L’uso degli ultrasuoni nelle disendocrinie femminili
L’ecografia pelvica è un mezzo diagnostico accurato, sicuro e non invasivo per la valutazione della volumetria, della morfologia e della funzionalità ovarica. Alcuni studi hanno documentato, nel periodo compreso tra l’infanzia e l’adolescenza, un aumento del volume ovarico (1-3), delle dimensioni e del numero dei follicoli. Per contro, in perimenopausa, si osserva una progressiva diminuzione delle dimensioni ovariche ed una omogeneità morfostrutturale. I cambiamenti osservati con l’ecografia sono in accordo con i reperti anatomopatologici
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Reperti lapidei
During the investigations conducted in Nonantola between 2004 and 2009 in the external area occupied by the abbey garden were found numerous stone finds, properly documented in the years 2008-2009. The different fragments, of heterogeneous nature, have been fully examined, not making a prior selection between the materials but extending the documentation to cases of small size and stone fragments in relation to the different UTS and stratigraphies of origin, consistent with the choices made in other contexts in which, gradually, the attention devoted to them has grown on a par with the potential for interpretation
