Wor(l)d-making Libraries: Fantastic Libraries as Creators of Alternative Realities
No full textFantasy fiction often appropriates the topos of the library to reflect upon the generative power of literature and on our ability to tap into it. Since the publication of Jorge Luis Borges’ influential short story, The Library of Babel (1941), the image of the library as a universe in itself, as a repository of virtually boundless (if unfathomable and labyrinthine) knowledge has become a recurring feature in fantasy literature. This essay seeks to investigate how British author Genevieve Cogman and American author Scott Hawkins refer to this tradition in their respective novels The Invisible Library (2014) and The Library at Mount Char (2015), through an analysis of some specific elements. In both texts, the structure of the library is represented as an interdimensional core, a macrocosm from which other dimensions may develop (including our own): each alternative reality hinges upon the library, which is in itself boundless, albeit rigorously arranged. While Cogman chooses to highlight the library’s function as a portal to other worlds, thus staging a traditional quest consistent with the informing paradigms of fantasy fiction, Hawkins stresses its metaphysical quality, reflecting upon the idea of God and its viability in our contemporary culture. Furthermore, these conceptions are equally associated with an understanding of language which enhances the tropes of words as “speaking” things into existence. Whether enchanting or emanating from the library’s ordering force, the verbal tools devised by Cogman and Hawkins revolve around the idea that language is power, and that through language reality can be reshaped

Dataset: Using taxonomic treatments to assess an author's taxonomic range: the impactful career of Jocelia Grazia
No full textHere we present the dataset of the descriptive analysis of the bibliographic production of the world renowned heteropterist Dr. Jocélia Grazia. We analyzed a total of 220 published documents, including scientific papers, scientific notes, and book chapters. Additionally, we applied the Plazi workflow to extract taxonomic treatments, images, tables, and references from 75 different documents in accordance with the FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse). The extracted treatments are available on TreatmentBank.

COMT Val158Met polymorphism predicts negative symptoms response to treatment with olanzapine in schizophrenia
No full textStudio di imaging di spettroscopia protonica con risonanza magnetica in famiglie con diversi fratelli affetti da schizofrenia
No full textPrecedenti studi hanno evidenziato alterazioni neurobiologiche simili in pazienti
con schizofrenia e nei loro parenti di primo grado. Callicott et al. (1998) hanno dimostrato con
tecnica di imaging di spettroscopia protonica con risonanza magnetica (1H-MRSI) riduzioni di Nacetilaspartato
(NAA), marker di integrità neuronale, nell'ippocampo (HIPPO) di pazienti e di
fratelli non affetti. Lo scopo di questo studio con lH-MRSI è di verificare che la familiarità di schizofrenia
possa essere associata a maggiori riduzioni di NAA. Abbiamo studiato 18 pazienti con
schizofrenia cronica (DSM IV) facenti parte di famiglie con diversi fratelli affetti (16 maschi, età
35.9±8.8),8 pazienti (7 maschi, età 35.1±7) con schizofrenia cronica (DSM IV) senza storia di familiarità
e lO soggetti sani di comparabile età, sesso ed istruzione. Valutazioni della sintomatologia
sono state effettuate con le scale PSAS, SANS, BPRS, PANSS.
Tutti gli studi di lH-MRSI sono stati eseguiti su magnete GE da 1.5 Tesla utilizzando una sequenza
precedentemente descritta (TE=272 msec, TR=2200 msec).
L'ANOVA di questi dati preliminari non ha mostrato nessuna differenza significativa nei livelli
di NAA. Data l'esiguità del campione non è possibile trarre conclusioni definitive
