    Dopo aver delineato una breve storia del giornale bergamasco "L'Eco di Bergamo", l'articolo si addentra nell'analisi delle notizie sulla Rivoluzione russa, sulla loro frequenza, tonalità, esaustività. Dall'analisi risulta un'attenzione alla politica di quel lontano paese inaspettata in un giornale della provincia italiana.After outlining a brief history of the Bergamo newspaper "L'Eco di Bergamo", the article goes into the analysis of the news on the Russian Revolution, on their frequency, tone and completeness. The analysis shows an unexpected attention to the politics of that distant country in a newspaper of the Italian province

    The output stage of an operational amplifier on GaAs n-channel field-effect and GaAs p-n-p bipolar transistors with nonlinear negative feedback

    No full text
    A new circuit of the output stage of an operational amplifier implemented on GaAs n-channel field-effect transistors with a control p-n junction and GaAs bipolar p-n-p transistors is investigated. Its peculiarity consists in the presence of a nonlinear negative feedback that stabilizes the drain current of the output transistor with an n-channel at a negative input voltage. The basic equations for the static mode of the output stage are given. The results of modeling in the LTspice simulation software of 3 modifications of the proposed circuit solutions are discussed.</p

    Variants in ADCY5 and near CCNL1 are associated with fetal growth and birth weight

    To identify genetic variants associated with birth weight, we meta-analyzed six genome-wide association (GWA) studies (n = 10,623 Europeans from pregnancy/birth cohorts) and followed up two lead signals in 13 replication studies (n = 27,591). rs900400 near LEKR1 and CCNL1 (P = 2 x 10(-35)) and rs9883204 in ADCY5 (P = 7 x 10(-15)) were robustly associated with birth weight. Correlated SNPs in ADCY5 were recently implicated in regulation of glucose levels and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes, providing evidence that the well-described association between lower birth weight and subsequent type 2 diabetes has a genetic component, distinct from the proposed role of programming by maternal nutrition. Using data from both SNPs, we found that the 9% of Europeans carrying four birth weight-lowering alleles were, on average, 113 g (95% CI 89-137 g) lighter at birth than the 24% with zero or one alleles (P(trend) = 7 x 10(-30)). The impact on birth weight is similar to that of a mother smoking 4-5 cigarettes per day in the third trimester of pregnancy

    New genetic loci implicated in fasting glucose homeostasis and their impact on type 2 diabetes risk

    Circulating glucose levels are tightly regulated. To identify novel glycemic loci, we performed meta-analyses of 21 genome-wide associations studies informative for fasting glucose (FG), fasting insulin (FI) and indices of β-cell function (HOMA-B) and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in up to 46,186 non-diabetic participants. Follow-up of 25 loci in up to 76,558 additional subjects identified 16 loci associated with FG/HOMA-B and two associated with FI/HOMA-IR. These include nine new FG loci (in or near ADCY5, MADD, ADRA2A, CRY2, FADS1, GLIS3, SLC2A2, PROX1 and FAM148B) and one influencing FI/HOMA-IR (near IGF1). We also demonstrated association of ADCY5, PROX1, GCK, GCKR and DGKB/TMEM195 with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Within these loci, likely biological candidate genes influence signal transduction, cell proliferation, development, glucose-sensing and circadian regulation. Our results demonstrate that genetic studies of glycemic traits can identify T2D risk loci, as well as loci that elevate FG modestly, but do not cause overt diabetes
