Il contributo dei risultati delle indagini archeologiche in via Caprera alla conoscenza di Karales in età classica e post classica
No full textLe informazioni ottenute dalle indagini archeologiche effettuate in via Caprera a Cagliari consentono di acquisire nuovi dati per la ricostruzione della topografia dell’antica Karales, nelle fasi relative al periodo repubblicano fino ad arrivare all’età tardo bizantina. La strutturazione urbanistica di epoca repubblicana e imperiale ha permesso di inserire lo scavo all’interno delle nostre conoscenze della città, per le quali si pone come ottimo punto di riferimento per il futuro. Per le fasi successive,
sia pure in un’area circoscritta, i lavori hanno permesso di osservare una sequenza importante, che denota trasformazioni con “pieni” e “vuoti” nella frequentazione, in sintonia con quanto accade in altre parti della stessa città e in generale nei centri urbani del Mediterraneo in età postclassica.
Parole chiave: Età Repubblicana, Post classico, archeologia urbana, fine della città antica, Karales.The results of the archaeological research in via Caprera in Cagliari let us have new information useful to rebuild the evolution of the topography of ancient Karales, from Roman republican to late byzantine age. Republican and Imperial phases has allowed to insert the site of via Caprera in the context of our knowledge of the urban plan of the ancient city, in which this excavation will be a point of reference for future research. Concerning successive phases, even if the area of the excavation is limited, the research brought to light a very important archaeological sequence to follow the modification of the town in its “presence” and “absence”, according with
other sites in the same town and with other urban examples in the Mediterranean world during the post-classical perio

Il ritorno a Caprera di Garibaldi
No full textQuanti dei protagonisti della nostra storia hanno tenuto a battesimo un'isola? Nel '60 si innamorò della Sicilia, grande aristocratica come alcune delle nobildonne che, amate da lui, lo riamarono, rifiutandosi però di sposarlo. Ma il suo vero grande amore, la sua "petrosa Itaca", la sua "Anita delle isole" fu Caprera, che di Itaca aveva tutta la bellezza verginale e la sensualità, ma anche la natura solitaria e l'estrema, commovente frugalità
ESTree db: a Tool for Peach Functional Genomics
No full textAbstract Background The ESTree db http://www.itb.cnr.it/estree/ represents a collection of Prunus persica expressed sequenced tags (ESTs) and is intended as a resource for peach functional genomics. A total of 6,155 successful EST sequences were obtained from four in-house prepared cDNA libraries from Prunus persica mesocarps at different developmental stages. Another 12,475 peach EST sequences were downloaded from public databases and added to the ESTree db. An automated pipeline was prepared to process EST sequences using public software integrated by in-house developed Perl scripts and data were collected in a MySQL database. A php-based web interface was developed to query the database. Results The ESTree db version as of April 2005 encompasses 18,630 sequences representing eight libraries. Contig assembly was performed with CAP3. Putative single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection was performed with the AutoSNP program and a search engine was implemented to retrieve results. All the sequences and all the contig consensus sequences were annotated both with blastx against the GenBank nr db and with GOblet against the viridiplantae section of the Gene Ontology db. Links to NiceZyme (Expasy) and to the KEGG metabolic pathways were provided. A local BLAST utility is available. A text search utility allows querying and browsing the database. Statistics were provided on Gene Ontology occurrences to assign sequences to Gene Ontology categories. Conclusion The resulting database is a comprehensive resource of data and links related to peach EST sequences. The Sequence Report and Contig Report pages work as the web interface core structures, giving quick access to data related to each sequence/contig.</p
Indolent t-cell lymphoproliferative disorders of the gastrointestinal tract (Itlpd-gi): A review
No full textiTLPD-GI is a low-grade clonal T-cell lymphoproliferative disease arising in GI organs. It is an uncommon disease, and only recently has it been enlisted as a distinct provisional entity in the current WHO Classification. Data from the literature disclose high heterogeneity in terms of pathological and molecular features; on the other hand, establishing an accurate diagnosis of iTLPD-GI is of pivotal importance, since treatment options are different from that of other, more frequent lymphomas that arise in the gastrointestinal tract. In this review, we aimed to better define this novel entity, and to identify useful diagnostic biomarkers; moreover, we provide a biomarker-based approach to the diagnosis and describe the most common issues in differentiating iTLPD-GI from other neoplastic and non-neoplastic disorders
The Caprera Canyon (north–eastern Sardinia): A hotspot of cetacean diversity in the western Mediterranean Sea
No full textThe Caprera Canyon, a submarine canyon system off Sardinia in the western Mediterranean, was thought to be an important cetacean habitat, though studies on the area remained limited. To address this knowledge gap, 216 boat-based surveys were conducted between 2011 and 2019, covering 8443 km, using both research and whale-watching vessels. The distribution, diversity, relative abundance (Encounter Rate - ER), and habitat use of cetaceans were described, along with relevant behavioural and ecological observations. A total of 8 species were reported across 810 sightings, encompassing 7 out of the 8 cetaceans regularly found in the western Mediterranean Sea. These species, in order of relative abundance, include the striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba), fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus), Cuvier's beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris), sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus), Risso's dolphin (Grampus griseus), common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), and a single observation of Sowerby's beaked whale Mesoplodon bidens. This results in an overall ER of 10.6 sightings/100 km. ERs indicate that some species are particularly abundant in the study area, with Cuvier's beaked whale registering one of the highest ER values ever documented in the Mediterranean Sea. Calves and behavioural observations suggest that the study area serves as both a breeding and feeding ground for most species. The high cetacean diversity and relative abundance, along with the regular occurrence of endangered and vulnerable species, identify the Caprera Canyon as an important hotspot for cetacean diversity. Habitat suitability models using the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) approach highlight that other smaller canyons surrounding the Caprera Canyon could provide suitable habitats for deep diving species. The results presented here serve as reference data for future studies on the ecology and long-term dynamics of cetaceans in the central-western Tyrrhenian Sea. We highlight that the Caprera Canyon and surrounding areas could benefit from being designated as an Important Marine Mammal Area (IMMA), potentially supporting conservation efforts, guiding marine spatial planning, and informing policy development to mitigate threats in the region

La guerra delle reliquie fra gli eredi Garibaldi e la gestione di Caprera
No full textSaggio sulla formazione del Museo di Caprera e sulle liti nate fra i due principali rami della famiglia Garibaldi. Prima la cessione gratuita allo Stato, poi il pentimento e la vendita, infine la sistemazione del cimitero. Il centro di sacralità, dato dal sepolcro di Garibaldi, suscita una guerra fra gli eredi, che vogliono definire gli spazi di prossimità per se stessi. In gioco anche la gestione dell'isola, meta del turismo ma soggetta al costante controllo dello Stato, sospettoso delle iniziative del "partito" garibaldino
