A dissolved crux (Aesch. Ag. 539 and the schol. vet. T ad v. 550) | Una crux dissolta (Aesch. Ag. 539 e lo schol. vet. T ad v. 550)
No full textThe transmitted text of Ag. 539 is usually regarded by editors as irremediably corrupt. Fraenkel
and West obelize; Page and Sommerstein print with misgivings Schneidewin’s conjecture χαίρω·
<τὸ> τεθνάναι κτλ. It seems to have escaped the attention of all editors that schol. vet. T 550
quotes v. 539 with the reading τὸ τεθνᾶναι and that, according to the use of the introducing
formula τὸ εἰρημένον ὑπὸ σοῦ, the article must be considered part of the quotation. The original
text, still known to the ancient scholiast, was only slightly altered by the introduction of the wrong
accentuation τεθνᾶναι. Schneidewin’s conjecture is thus confirmed, and the crux disappear

Utilizzo degli acciai ferritici a bassa attivazione come materiale strutturale per la prima parete di un reattore a fusione
No full textUn problema basilare per l'ingegneria dei reattori a fusione consiste nella selezione .dei materiali più adatti a costituirne la prima parte, ovvero quella par te di struttura direttamente esposta al plasma; essa costituisce una delle componenti più critiche, essendo sottoposta ad una serie di interazioni e di sollecitazioni che vanno dallo stress termico, al bombardamento di particelle, alla fatica. Fra gli altri aspetti, uno dei più importanti è il fenomeno della radioattività indotta da interazione neutronic

No full textProceedings (senza ISBN) della Conferenza "CISF99 - Fifth Italian Conference on Supercritical Fluids and their Applications", Garda (VR), 13-16 giugno 1999. -
An investigation of the application of supercritical carbon dioxide extraction to the production of essential oils from myrtle berries has been made to verify that the properties of the oil remain essentially unchanged when this technique is applied. Yield and composition (related quantity of the main components) have been used for comparing the performance of the supercritical extraction and hydrodistillation. The presence of a high molecular weight compound (a dione) in the extract and a higher yield of essential oil are the main evident differences between the supercritical extraction and the traditional hydrodistillation
Congenital hypothyroidism due to defects of thyroid development and mild increase of TSH at screening: data from the Italian National Registry of infants with congenital hypothyroidism.
No full textCONTEXT:
Over the years lower TSH cutoffs have been adopted in some screening programs for congenital hypothyroidism (CH) worldwide. This has resulted in a progressive increase in detecting additional mild forms of the disease, essentially with normally located and shaped thyroid. However, the question of whether such additional mild CH cases can benefit from detection by newborn screening and early thyroid hormone treatment is still open.
OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this study was to estimate the frequency of cases with mild increase of TSH at screening in the Italian population of babies with permanent CH and to characterize these babies in terms of diagnosis classification and neonatal features.
METHODS:
Data recorded in the Italian National Registry of infants with CH were analyzed.
RESULTS:
Between 2000 and 2006, 17 of the 25 Italian screening centers adopted a TSH cutoff at screening of <15.0 μU/mL. It was found that 21.6% of babies with permanent CH had TSH at screening of 15.0 μU/mL or less, whereas this percentage was 54% in infants with transient hypothyroidism. Among the babies with permanent CH and mild increase of TSH at screening (≤15 μU/mL), 19.6% had thyroid dysgenesis with serum TSH levels at confirmation of the diagnosis ranging from 9.9 to 708 μU/mL. These babies would have been missed at screening if the cutoff had been higher.
CONCLUSIONS:
Lowering TSH cutoff in our country has enabled us to detect additional cases of permanent CH, a number of which had defects of thyroid development and severe hypothyroidism at confirmation of the diagnosis

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
