    The section presents the Chinese translation of four poems by Milo De Angelis, who is among the best Italian contemporary poets. The poems are taken from the collection "Incontri e agguati" (Mondadori, 201 5). The texts are both in Italian and Chinese in parallel text. Yang Lin, with the help of Geng Jiang (Chinese musician and poet), took care of the translation. The section opens with a note made by the translation group that analyses the processes of the transposition of the dense poetic language of De Angelis into the Chinese language. There follows an enlightening letter from Milo De Angelis to the translation group. The four poems in Chinese and Italian complete the section

    Singaporemma wulongensis Lin & Li, 2014 Figures 6E–e, 7F Singaporemma wulongensis Lin & Li, 2014: 46, figs 7–9, 17, 20B Examined material. Holotype ♂, paratypes 8♂ and 20♀ (NHMSU), CHINA: Chongqing, Wulong, Tudi Town, Tiansheng Village, Xiaodong Cave, 29°31.853'N, 107°50.817'E, altitude 1050 m, 17 October 2010, L. Dou and Y. Lin leg. Diagnosis. Male of S. wulongensis differs from males of all other congeners with the exception of S. bifurcata by the furcate embolus (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6A–D, 6a–d, 6G–H, 6g –h); it differs from male of S. bifurcata by the narrower, longer oval bulb, the embolus with two equilong tip branches, and the embolus starts from the submesialback surface of bulb, but the embolus of S. bifurcata with asymmetric branches that origins from prolateral surface of bulb (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6F–f). Female of S. wulongensis seems also close to S. bifurcata having a similar vulval structure, but it can be distinguished by the lager “ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the longer, weakly sclerotized central process (Fig. 7F vs. Fig. 7D). Description. See Lin & Li, 2014: 46. Distribution.

    Singaporemma bifurcata Lin & Li, 2010 Figures 1A–H, 2A–E, 6F–f, 8A Singaporemma bifurcata Lin & Li, 2010: 26, figs 29–37 Examined material. Topotypes 11♂ 25♀ (NHMSU), CHINA: Guizhou, Suiyang, Wenquan Town, Guihua Village, Hejiao Cave, 28°15´N, 107°17´E, altitude 695 m, 17 April 2015, Y. Lin and H. Yang leg. Diagnosis. With the exception of S. wulongensis, male of S. bifurcata can be distinguished from all other congeners by the embolus with an asymmetrically furcate end (Fig. 6f vs. Fig. 6a–d, 6g –h), and female of S. bifurcata differs by the stubby, sclerotized central process (Fig. 8A vs. Figs. 5C–D, 7A–C, 9A–B). S. bifurcata similar to S. wulongensis in the shape of palpal bulb and the configuration of vulva, but male of S. bifurcata can be distinguished from that of S. wulongensis by the starting position of embolus (Fig. 6F vs. Fig. 6E, the position indicated by the blue arrow) and the unequal length of branches of embolic tip (Fig. 6f vs. Fig. 6e); female of S. bifurcata separated by the smaller, “Ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the shorter central process (Fig. 8A vs. Fig. 8B). Description. See Figs 1A–H, 2A–E, 6F–f, 8A and Lin & Li, 2010: 26. Distribution.

    Vascular endothelial growth factor restores delayed tumor progression in tumors depleted of macrophages

    Full text link
    Genetic depletion of macrophages in Polyoma Middle T oncoprotein (PyMT)-induced mammary tumors in mice delayed the angiogenic switch and the progression to malignancy. To determine whether vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) produced by tumor-associated macrophages regulated the onset of the angiogenic switch, a genetic approach was used to restore expression of VEGF-A into tumors at the benign stages. This stimulated formation of a high-density vessel network and in macrophage-depleted mice, was followed by accelerated tumor progression. The expression of VEGF-A led to a massive infiltration into the tumor of leukocytes that were mostly macrophages. This study suggests that macrophage-produced VEGF regulates malignant progression through stimulating tumor angiogenesis, leukocytic infiltration and tumor cell invasion

    Has Digital Transformation Impacted Gender Imbalance in Italian cinema? A data analysis of creative clusters 2004-2016

    No full text
    The post-cinema context, ushered in by the pervasive digitisation of production and consumption of audio-visual materials, carried a promise of increased diversity in the production sphere due to lower entry barriers. This chapter examines the gender dimension of this promise, investigating the role of women in the production of 3542 films which applied for state funding between 2004 and 2016. Within this sample, 1270 works are further analysed in their full creative network, examining the gender and connections of all involved cast and crews. We apply a big-data approach combining an analysis of distribution with social network analysis; furthermore, a new metric called gd-score is introduced to measure with greater accuracy the power distribution in the industry. The results show that women maintain a peripheral role in the Italian cinema industry, as their incidence in power positions appears inversely proportional to a projects' budget and prestige. Moreover, women’s professional networks appear structurally weaker than those of their male counterparts. Overall, stronger institutional interventions is necessary to overcome what appears as a structural imbalance in the Italian cinema industry

    The objective of this study is to understand the role of digital technologies and social media in the communication between museums and visitors. We conducted a systematic review to understand the most important dimensions of the relationship between visitors and museums on social media, and the opportunities provided by these touchpoints to interact with their target. In the empirical part, we adopted the case study methodology in order to analyze the digital communications strategy of the National Museum of Science and Technology Leonardo da Vinci based in Milan
