Riparare, tra confine e follia
Partendo dal doppio significato che il verbo riparare ha in italiano, aggiustare e proteggere, si mettono a confronto l’architettura, che da sempre ha il compito primario di offrire un rifugio e che oggi si propone di riaggiustare preesistenze e tessuti urbani riportandoli alla funzionalità, e la psichiatria, che nella sua storia ha preteso di riparare la mente del folle, proteggendo lui, e al tempo stesso la società, attraverso l’internamento. Il confronto tra architettura e psichiatria è utile se si intendono progettare interventi di riuso in un ex manicomio, ma diventa indispensabile se il manicomio in questione è quello in cui, nel 1961, nasce la rivoluzione della psichiatria italiana, che porterà al riconoscimento dei diritti delle persone con disturbi mentali e, con la legge Basaglia del 1978, alla messa “fuori legge” di una tipologia architettonica, quella dell’ospedale psichiatrico, divenuta simbolo della negazione di quei diritti. La storia di questo ospedale, marginale e al tempo stesso sempre al centro di travagliati incroci e spostamenti di confini, governi, identità e lingue, ne fa un luogo emblematico per il contemporaneo. In questa sua complessità è stato proposto alla riflessione di più saperi e di diverse pratiche progettuali

High IgE levels in patients affected by psoriasis: review of the literature and personal observations
The concomitance of psoriasis and high IgE levels in the same patient, possibly associated to allergies, should not come as a surprise anymore, because both diseases are characterised by an immunological disorder, involving cytokines and other infl ammatory mediators, with massive activation of the cell-mediated immunity. Materials and Methods. During a period of 18 months, using a radio-immunologic method, we assessed the level of IgE in patients with severe psoriasis who were not responding to the common therapy. Results. Patients with severe psoriasis had high levels of IgE. Conclusions. IgEs have an important role in pathogenesis of psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, but the mechanism is not yet clear

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
