Solid acids catalysed Michael-type conjugate addition of indoles to electron-poor C-C double bonds: towards high atom economy semi-continuous processes
No full textA novel application of solid acid catalysts in the chemoselective Friedel-Crafts (FC) alkylation of indoles is reported. The optimal protocol allows highly functionalized indolyl compds. to be synthesized in excellent yields through conjugate addn. of indoles with a,b-unsatd. ketones and nitro compds. Finally, the use of com. Amberlyst-15 as the heterogeneous catalyst for highly atom efficient continuous and semicontinuous Friedel-Crafts processes is described
Was ist aus der Psychiatrie geworden? Interessenskrise, fragen der ausbildung und neue herausforderungen.
No full textThe aim of this article is to describe the current crisis of psychiatry’s scientific credibility.
A review of the literature points to a lack of identity characterizing this discipline and giving rise to many contrasting schools of thought. A fall in the request for specialist training and the high number of drop-outs during the professional training period testify to the fact that there is a crisis of credibility. This phenomenon is attributed to a lack of prestige afflicting psychiatry and to a poor consideration of the current diagnostic and therapeutic tools.
Many authors suggest giving more importance to the human qualities of the psychiatrist and resuscitating psychopathology as a way of coping with this situation
Trent'anni di legge 180: dalla gestione della cronicità alla possibilità di cura.
No full textThe aim of this article is to describe the current situation of the Italian mental health system thirty
years after the proclamation of law 180, to assess the quality, accessibility, adequacy, acceptability
and continuity of the treatments offered, by presenting a series of data found within the most important
epidemiological studies carried out at a national level. From what has emerged we are able to
gather that structural, organizational and methodological factors insure that the system appears
strongly conditioned by the necessity to manage pathologies which have already become chronic at
the expense of the possibility of fostering, stimulating and supporting operations directed at preventing
chronicity itself through diagnosis and early intervention. Practical changes and theoretical
transformations are therefore not only necessary but urgent if we want to carry out a conceptual and
practical revolution within the Italian mental health system; something which must still be achieved
Che fine ha fatto la psichiatria? Crisi di interesse, voglia di formazione e nuove sfide.
No full textThe aim of this article is to describe the current crisis of psychiatry’s scientific credibility. A review
of the literature points to a lack of identity characterizing this discipline and giving rise to many
contrasting schools of thought. A fall in the request for specialist training and the high number of
drop-outs during the professional training period testify to the fact that there is a crisis of credibility.
This phenomenon is attributed to a lack of prestige afflicting psychiatry and to a poor consideration
of the current diagnostic and therapeutic tools. Many authors suggest giving more importance to
the human qualities of the psychiatrist and resuscitating psychopathology as a way of coping with
this situation. The Authors believe that a reconsideration of psychodynamic psychotherapy is a key
factor in solving this crisis provided that it proves its efficacy in order not to be excluded from scientific
debate

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dalla crisi del paradigma neokraepeliniano verso una nuova nosografia psichiatrica. Il DSM-5.
No full textWith this article we intend to outline the story of American psychiatry starting at the end of the 19th
century until the present time, describing the cultural, political and economic context which culminated
in the development and diffusion of biological psychiatry and its nosography.
The diffusion of psychoanalysis and of A. Meyer’s psychological psychiatry, beginning at the end of
the Second World War until the end of the Sixties, determined such as an enlargement of psychiatric
diagnosis which no longer allowed one to distinguish a sane individual from an ill individual. This
“dimensional” model caused a slow process of de-medicalization of psychiatry which removed consent
and legitimacy from the discipline. The answer was the publication in 1980 of DSM III, the work
of a small number of psychiatrists known as the “Neo-Kraepelinians”. The new nosography based on
a categorial diagnostic system, emphasized what is directly observable and therefore measurable,
and not what is clinically significant. Whit DSM III and the successive versions the interest of the psychiatrists
moved from the clinical to the epidemiological research. In the attempt to take psychiatry
back to one of the medical sciences DSM III has in reality continued the process of undermining started
whit Meyer and psychoanalysis. And now with the forthcoming publication of DSM V, psychiatry
will be confused ever more with neurosciences
