La fine è il fuoco? Roghi di libri e biblioteche nel mondo antico
No full textL'articolo prende in principali fonti greche e latine sulla distruzione di libri e biblioteche, per concludere che la forma di distruzione più frequentemente attestata è il fuoco, mentre sono rarissimi gli accenni ad altri agenti che portano alla scomparsa delle opere letterarie, quali il disinteresse dei lettori o i fattori ambientali.The paper focuses on the Greek and Latin sources on the destruction of books and libraries, and concludes that the more frequently attested form of destruction is fire, while very rare are the references to other causes leading to the disappearance of literary works, such as the lack of interest among the potential readers and the environmental factors

Evaluation of high protein quality maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars in four localities in Costa Rica
No full textSe evaluaron cuatro cultivares de maíz de endosperma blanco y tres cultivares de endosperma amarillo en cuatro localidades de Costa Rica: Alajuela, Orotina, Cañas y Quepos. El promedio anual de temperatura y precipitación, así como la altura sobre el nivel del mar, para Alajuela, Orotina, Cañas y Quepos es de 23 °C, 1916 mm, 843 m; 28,9 °C, 2496 mm, 170 m; 27,2 °C, 1648 mm, 90 m y 27,6 °C, 4468,8 mm, 10 m, respectivamente. Los cultivares evaluados de endosperma blanco fueron: Alajuela 8363, San Jerónimo 8140, San Jerónimo 8363, Tico V-7 (Testigo) y los de endosperma amarillo: San Jerónimo 8039, Pichilingue 8466 Y Guararé 7728 (Testigo). Se empleó un diseño de bloques completos al azar con cuatro repeticiones. Entre los cultivares de endosperma blanco, el Alajuela 8363 mostró los rendimientos mas altos: 8,6; 8,2; 10,2 y 8,5 t/ha para las localidades de Alajuela, Orotina, Cañas y Quepos respectivamente, los cuales superaron al cultivar testigo Tico V-7. De los maíces amarillos de alta calidad de proteína evaluados, el cultivar Pichilingue 8466 presentó los mayores rendimientos: 7,0; 7,1; 9,5 y 9,1 t/ha para las localidades antes mencionadas, respectivamente. La localidad de Quepos presentó el mayor porcentaje de mazorcas podridas, 27,4 %; mientras que Orotina mostró el menor porcentaje, 11,8 %. Los cultivares de alta calidad de proteína se presentan como una alternativa más de producción para el agricultor.Four white endosperm and three yellow endosperm maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars were evaluated in Alajuela, Orotina, Cañas and Quepos, Costa Rica. A Randomized Complete Block Experimental Design with four replications was used. The white endosperm cultivars were: Alajuela 8363, San Jerónimo 8140, San Jerónimo 8363 and Tico V-7 (control) and the yellow endosperm cultivars were: San Jerónimo 8039, Pichilingue 8466 and Guarare 7728 (control). The annual average temperature and rainfall, as well as the altitude (mas1) for Alajuela, Orotina, Cañas and Quepos is : 23 °C, 1916 mm, 843 m; 28.9 °C, 2496 mm, 170 m; 27.2 °C, 1648 mm, 90 m and 27.6 °C, 4468.8 mm, 10 m; respectively. Among the white endosperm cultivars, Alajuela 8363 showed the highest yields: 8.6, 8.2, 10.2 and 8.5 t/ha for the localities of Alajuela, Orotina, Cañas and Quepos, respectively. All cultivars outyielded the control Tico V-7. Among the high protein quality yellow maize cultivars, Pichilingue 8466 yielded the highest: 7.0, 7.1, 9.5 and 9.1 t/ha for the above mentioned localities, respectively. The locality of Quepos showed the highest percentage of rotten ‘ears’ (27.4 %), while Orotina showed the lowest percentage (11.8 % ).UCR::Vicerrectoría de Investigación::Unidades de Investigación::Ciencias Agroalimentarias::Estación Experimental Agrícola Fabio Baudrit Moreno (EEAFBM

Hormonal Treatment Reduces Psychobiological Distress in Gender Identity Disorder, Independently of the Attachment Style.
No full textGender identity disorder may be a stressful situation. Hormonal treatment seemed to improve the general health as it reduces psychological and social distress. The attachment style seemed to regulate distress in insecure individuals as they are more exposed to hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal system dysregulation and subjective stress.
AIM:
The objectives of the study were to evaluate the presence of psychobiological distress and insecure attachment in transsexuals and to study their stress levels with reference to the hormonal treatment and the attachment pattern.
METHODS:
We investigated 70 transsexual patients. We measured the cortisol levels and the perceived stress before starting the hormonal therapy and after about 12 months. We studied the representation of attachment in transsexuals by a backward investigation in the relations between them and their caregivers.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:
We used blood samples for assessing cortisol awakening response (CAR); we used the Perceived Stress Scale for evaluating self-reported perceived stress and the Adult Attachment Interview to determine attachment styles.
RESULTS:
At enrollment, transsexuals reported elevated CAR; their values were out of normal. They expressed higher perceived stress and more attachment insecurity, with respect to normative sample data. When treated with hormone therapy, transsexuals reported significantly lower CAR (P < 0.001), falling within the normal range for cortisol levels. Treated transsexuals showed also lower perceived stress (P < 0.001), with levels similar to normative samples. The insecure attachment styles were associated with higher CAR and perceived stress in untreated transsexuals (P < 0.01). Treated transsexuals did not expressed significant differences in CAR and perceived stress by attachment.
CONCLUSION:
Our results suggested that untreated patients suffer from a higher degree of stress and that attachment insecurity negatively impacts the stress management. Initiating the hormonal treatment seemed to have a positive effect in reducing stress levels, whatever the attachment style may be. Colizzi M, Costa R, Pace V, and Todarello O.
