Why are left-right spatial codes easier to form than above-below ones?
No full textPrevious studies have shown that spatial compatibility is stronger in the left-right than in the above-below dimension. This left-right dominance cannot be attributed to a better representation of the effectors in left-right than in above-below locational codes or to the fact that incompatible left-right stimulus-response pairings cross the body midline, whereas incompatible above-below ones do not. Nicoletti and Umiltà (1985) proposed that the left-right dominance should be attributed to the allocation of attention to the more difficult discrimination, which, in vision, is that concerning the left-right dimension. This attentional hypothesis was tested in the present study, in which we used the auditory modality. We reasoned that because in the auditory modality the above-below discriminations are more difficult than left-right ones, attention should be preferentially allocated to the former. Therefore, in audition an above-below dominance should replace the left-right dominance observed in vision. Experiments 1 and 2 showed a clear-cut compatibility effect in the auditory modality for both the left-right and above-below dimensions. Experiment 3 showed that spatial compatibility was still stronger for the left-right than for the above-below dimension. Since the left-right one proved to be the more discriminable dimension, this finding rules out the attentional hypothesis, at least in the version originally proposed
On the Cauchy–Nicoletti Type Two-Point Boundary-Value Problem for Fractional Differential Systems
No full textWe deal with a system of quasilinear fractional differential equations, subjected to the Cauchy–Nicoletti type boundary conditions. The task of explicit solution of such problems is difficult and not always solvable. Thus we suggest a suitable numerical–analytic technique that allows to construct an approximate solution of the studied fractional boundary value problem with high precision.Mathematical Physic
Is interhemispheric transfer of visuomotor information asymmetric? Evidence from a meta-analysis
No full textMeta-analyzed 16 studies with 320 Ss, using a simple unimanual reaction time (RT) paradigm and lateralized visual stimuli, to estimate the interhemispheric transfer time in normal right-handed persons. There was a significant overall RT advantage of the left visual field over the right visual field and of the right hand over the left hand. These asymmetries can be explained in terms of the left hemisphere having direct control of only the contralateral hand through the cortico-spinal path, while the right hemisphere directly controls both hands because of a substantial contribution of the uncrossed cortico-spinal pathway. A 2nd explanation is that these asymmetries relate to an asymmetry of interhemispheric transmission of visuomotor information, with transmission from the right hemisphere to the left being faster in the reverse direction.

Appunti lombardi
No full textGli artisti affrontati in questa silloge, tutti più o meno della stessa generazione, rientrano possono essere accomunati dal fatto di indagare, ciascuno secondo il proprio modo, sui problemi del segno o della materia (o entrambi), senza rinunciare però a un aspetto di poesia. Li accomuna un approccio sensuale alla pittura (e a certa scultura), all’interno di un immaginario intimo ed esistenziale, connotato da un certo lirismo di fondo. Provare ad accostare queste esperienze in una lettura unitaria, dunque, aiuta a fare il punto di una certa situazione artistica milanese ancora da chiarire. Non basterà naturalmente riunire una serie di scritti brevi e occasionali per esaurire questo compito. Si noteranno però affinità comunicanti e motivi ricorrenti che
devono indurre a riavvicinare esperienze che in prima istanza di vorrebbe tenere separate. Nessun artista è un’isola che può essere vista a sé, chiusa nella sua poetica in-dividuale che non tenga conto di ciò che le accade attorno. Al contrario, una rete di rapporti, persino di amicizie talvolta, rende giustizia di una complessità di scambi, di un flusso di idee ed esperimenti che non può essere frazionata.

Parigi era viva : la capitale dell'arte nel ventesimo secolo
No full textÈ la lunga autobiografia, raccontata "in terza persona" sotto lo pseudonimo di Silvio, di un celebre editore e critico d’arte, nonché gallerista, uno spaccato della sua vita parigina vista da un’angolazione particolare, in cui le ragioni estetiche si mescolano con l’aneddoto e con la descrizione anche umana degli artisti nel loro contesto (lo studio di Kandinsky, le visite a Picasso, le conversazioni con Matisse e con Alberto Magnelli, le incomprensioni con de Chirico). Gualtieri di San Lazzaro (al secolo Giuseppe Papa, 1904-1974) fondò e diresse la rivista «XXe Siècle», pubblicata a Parigi a partire dal 1938, dedicando ogni numero a un diverso tema di arte contemporanea e illustrandolo con grafiche originali di maestri come Arp, Henri Laurens, Miró, Klee, Moore, Marino Marini, Magnelli e Picasso. Edito da Garzanti nel 1948 (Premio Bagutta Opera Prima 1949) e da Mondadori nel 1966, il libro diventa oggi una preziosa testimonianza di un clima culturale e dei suoi protagonisti, raccontati da un testimone diretto e partecipe.
Viene qui riproposta l’edizione modificata e accresciuta dallo stesso autore nel 1966

Diagnostic and therapeutic potential of the gut microbiota in patients with early hepatocellular carcinoma
No full textThe gut microbiota is involved in the maintenance of the homeostasis of the human body and its alterations are associated with the development of different pathological conditions. The liver is the organ most exposed to the influence of the gut microbiota, and recently important connections between the intestinal flora and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been described. In fact, HCC is commonly associated with liver cirrhosis and develops in a microenvironment where inflammation, immunological alterations, and cellular aberrations are dramatically evident. Prevention and diagnosis in the earliest stages are still the most effective weapons in fighting this tumor. Animal models show that the gut microbiota can be involved in the promotion and progression of HCC directly or through different pathogenic mechanisms. Recent data in humans have confirmed these preclinical findings, shedding new light on HCC pathogenesis. Limitations due to the different experimental design, the ethnic and hepatological setting make it difficult to compare the results and draw definitive conclusions, but these studies lay the foundations for a pathogenetic redefinition of HCC. Therefore, it is evident that the characterization of the gut microbiota and its modulation can have an enormous diagnostic, preventive, and therapeutic potential, especially in patients with early stage HCC
