La rappresentazione del sé corporeo in condizioni di patologie croniche diversamente trattate
No full textIl contributo presenta uno studio sulla rappresentazione del sé corporeo in bambini con patologie croniche diversamente trattate, al fine di esplorare possibili risorse funzionali alla gestione della condizione di rischio costituita dalla patologia; nello specifico, gli indicatori delle risorse vanno individuati, su un piano qualitativo, nell’adeguatezza dell’immagine del corpo, nell’integrità dell’immagine di sé, nell’integrazione di mappe cognitive e, su un piano quantitativo, nel quoziente di maturità cognitiva. Lo studio ha previsto il coinvolgimento di un gruppo di 52 bambini (età media 10 anni) di cui un 50% con patologie croniche che prevedono trattamenti invasivi, caratterizzati da "pratiche" sul corpo costanti che alterano la serenità del quotidiano (es. trasfusioni, cateteri venosi, iniezioni di insulina, microinfusioni), l’altro 50% con cardiopatie sottoposti a trattamenti solo farmacologici. L’indagine ha previsto l’uso del Disegno della Figura Umana. I risultati, pur mostrando, in generale, livelli medi di adeguatezza e di integrità corporea, sottolineano differenze statisticamente significative in relazione alla tipologia di trattamento, laddove i bambini sottoposti a trattamenti invasivi presentano livelli più elevati sia di adeguatezza che di integrità corporea. Relativamente al quoziente di maturità, invece, non si evidenziano differenze tra i due gruppi, sottolineando la presenza di alcune risorse cognitive funzionali all’adattamento alla patologia
Variations on the Author
No full text“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

Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
Late gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in beta thalassemia major: correlation with ECG-changes, biventricular function parameters and myocardial iron overload
No full textJohn F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt
No full textJersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works

No full textLogarithmic variance profiles and the corresponding f-1 spectra of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection
No full textWe report experimental results for the temperature variance 2(z) and the corresponding frequency spectra P(f) in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratioT= D/L = 1:00 (D = 1:12 m is the diameter and L = 1:12 m the height). The measurements were conducted in the Rayleigh-number range 1011 < Ra < 1:35 1014 and Pr ' 0:8. For Ra = 1:35x1014, 2(z) could be described well by a logarithmic dependence on the vertical position z in a range of z 1 < z < z 2 with z 1 ' 70 and z 2 = 0:1L. Here L=(2Nu) is the thickness of a thin thermal sublayer adjacent to the horizontal plate where the heat flux (denoted by the Nusselt number Nu) is carried mostly by thermal diffusion. In the log layer, we found that the temperature spectra had a significant frequency range over which P(f) f with close to 1. As Ra decreased, increased so that the log layer became thinner. At Ra = 2:05 1011, z 2 < z 1 and therefore there was no range for a log layer. Correspondingly, the temperature spectrum near the horizontal plate did not have the f1 scaling form either
