Ranking services for students via preference elicitation at Padua university
The University of Padua conducted a survey to elicit the preferences of its students for new services that the university, the city and local authorities could offer to improve student life before, during and after graduation. In this paper, we present the statistical methodology for ranking services according to students’ preferences and discuss the resulting ranks of the services grouped in 10 thematic areas. We conclude that the preference elicitation method and the rank estimation method adopted in our research are appropriate for within-university prioritisation of student services
Protective Effects of L-Dopa and Carbidopa Combined Treatments on Human Catecholaminergic Cells
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders characterized by decreased levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) in the striatum of the brain, as a result of degeneration of DA neurons. Levodopa (L-Dopa) crosses the blood–brain barrier and its administration replenishes the loss of DA in dopaminergic neurons in PD patients. Despite the evident beneficial effects, L-Dopa use may cause side effects and its toxicity found in in vitro assays has been attributed to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS): L-Dopa is converted to DA and its metabolism and autoxidation gives rise to quinones, semiquinones, and hydrogen peroxide. Despite this evidence, L-Dopa in some in vivo and in vitro experiments showed no toxic effects, or even antioxidant effects. Two major peripheral L-Dopa metabolic pathways, driven by the enzymes Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) and catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT), significantly deplete the amount of L-Dopa reaching the brain. The low bioavailability of L-Dopa may cause a wide variation in clinical response between patients. Strategies addressing to improve the bioavailability of L-Dopa include coadministering L-Dopa with carbidopa, a decarboxylase inhibitor, as multiple daily doses. We utilized catecholaminergic human neuroblastoma cells to study DNA damage and ROS production after L-Dopa and carbidopa treatments. Our data lead us to confirm that L-Dopa may have a protective effect on dopaminergic cells especially at certain concentrations, in particular, toward the production of ROS and their toxic effects on DNA. Furthermore in the combined treatment, with induction of ROS following administration of H2O2, carbidopa is effective in reducing the damage caused by reactive oxygen intermediates both alone and in combination with L-Dopa

Tavole botaniche
Secondo una nota manoscritta di Saccardo sulla carta di guardia (1913) si tratta di tavole disegnate da Morandi attorno al 1740, riprendendole da opere botaniche diverse.
19 di queste sono state poi pubblicate nel volume "Hisotria botanica practica" (vai alla scheda catalografica: https://galileodiscovery.unipd.it/discovery/fulldisplay?context=L&vid=39UPD_INST:VU1&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&tab=Everything&docid=alma990003969250206046 ) dello stesso Morandi (che in tutto ne comprende 68) e altre 15 sono simili alle precedenti ma, sempre secondo Saccardo, non furono scelte per la pubblicazione forse perché ritenute meno importanti per quell\u27opera.
Oltre a queste, il volume comprende altre 30 tavole (di cui una dipinta), con il nome della pianta rappresentata e una descrizione più o meno dettagliata
Marsilius of Padua. A Reader of Aristotle's Politica
The article reflects on how Marsilius of Padua read Aristotle's Politics in his Defensor Pacis. It shows how Marsilius reveals himself to be an attentive and skilful reader of this Advancing the hypothesis that the author used a copy of Moerbeke's Latin translation in which the division into chapters was different from the one usually used by modern scholar
