In ossequio a una norma il cui senso ci sfugge: scrivere con Bruno Celano
No full textIl titolo di questo articolo è l'incipit di una formula utilizzata da Bruno Celano nella prima nota dei saggi a due mani. Nella sua versione integrale è la seguente: “In ottemperanza a una norma italiana, di cui non comprendiamo appieno il senso, dichiariamo che le sezioni X e Y sono di Bruno Celano e le sezioni W e Z sono di N”. Dato il processo di scrittura altamente dialogico, possiamo facilmente comprendere perché Celano, con garbata irriverenza, obbedisse alla richiesta di attribuire la titolarità di ogni sezione a unautore, non esimendosidall’esprimereun certo dissenso.Nella sua vasta produzione, i testia doppia firmasono pochie recenti. Tuttavia, raccontare la pratica creativa della scrittura congiunta ci permette di mostrare un tratto distintivo dell'intera opera di Bruno Celano, ovvero il pensare e il ricercare in dialogo. Nel presente lavoro, Clelia Bartoli, Marco Brigaglia e Giuseppe Rocché ripercorrono alcuni elementidal backstage del lavoro di Celano, soprattutto negli ultimi anni segnati dalla malattia.The title of this article is the incipit of a formula used by Bruno Celano, to be placed in the first note of the two-handed essays. In its completeversion it is as follows: «In complying with an Italian rule, whose point we do not fully understand, we declare that sections X and Y are by Bruno Celano and sections W and Z are by N». Given the highly dialogic process of writing that took place with Celano, we can easily understand why he,with gentle irreverence,obeyed by disagreeing to attribute ownership of each section to each author.In hisvast production, publications withanother author are few and recent. However, recounting the creative practiceof joint writing allows us to show a distinctive feature of Bruno Celano's entire oeuvre, which was thinking and researching in dialogue. In the current paper, Clelia Bartoli, Marco Brigaglia,and Giuseppe Rocchétrace some aspects of the backstage of Celano's work, especially inthe utmost years marked by illness
Archaeology of the Early medieval Nomads in Italy: the Horse-Burials from South-Central Italy
No full textThe author in this volume edited by C. Balint and hosting the acts of a Symposium held in the Accademia d'Ungheria in November 1993 in Rome entitled Kontakte between Iran, Bysanz und der Steppe im 6.-7. Jahrhundert, is dealing with a special type of burials of the early middle age: the horse graves. Taking the occasion of the symposium the author is dealing with a short history of the main important of such finds in east Europe and in Asia from VII century AD, including the sensational discovery in Italy, in Molise of the first horse graves in Vicenne in a Lombard age cemetery. This find is particularly important because, both for the uniqueness of this type, and basically for the presence of cast iron stirrups of Avarian Age and datable to the 7th century. This date is much earlier than the usual dating of other finding of such objects in Europe, before considered datable back only to the Charles the Great period

Measuring industry-science links through inventor-author relations: A profiling method
No full textIn this pilot study we examine the performance of text-based profiling in recovering a set of validated inventor-author links. In a first step we match patents and publications solely based on their similarity in content. Next, we compare inventor and author names on the highest ranked matches for the occurrence of name matches. Finally, we compare these candidate matches with the names listed in a validated set of inventor-author names. Our text-based profile methodology performs significantly better than a random matching of patents and publications, suggesting that text-based profiling is a valuable complementary tool to the name searches used in previous studies.innovation; industry-science links; text-based profiling;

Abstract: Background: Few and conflicting data are available in the literature on the association between Lp(a) levels and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in diabetic patients. In addition, no studies took into account the role of apo(a) polymorphism. The purpose of the present study was to analyse the association of the degree of coronary atherosclerosis with Lp(a) levels and apo(a) polymorphism in a large group of type 2 diabetic patients.
Methods: The study population consisted of 227 consecutive type 2 diabetic patients undergoing a routine coronary angiography to evaluate chest pain or suspected CAD. The patients were subdivided into four subgroups according to the number of coronary arteries diseased: normal arteries (n = 26), mono-vessel disease (n = 67), bi-vessel disease (n = 54) and multi-vessel disease (n = 80).
Results: Lp(a) levels (normal arteries: 14.6 +/- 19.6 mg/dl; mono-vessel disease: 19.0 +/- 16.4 mg/dl; bi-vessel disease: 19.3 +/- 15.1 mg/dl; multi-vessel disease: 26.5 +/- 16.8 mg/dl; p < 0.001) and the percentages of patients with at least one isoform of low molecular weight (normal arteries: 23.1%; mono-vessel disease: 38.8%; bi-vessel disease: 75.9%; multi-vessel disease: 81.2%; p < 0.001) were significantly correlated with increasing number of coronary vessels diseased. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that both Lp(a) levels (OR: 1.31; 95% CI: 1.02-4.11) and apo(a) polymorphism (OR: 3.43; 95% CI: 1.67-7.05) were independent predictors of CAD severity.
Conclusions: Our data suggest that Lp(a) levels and apo(a) polymorphism may be reliable predictors of CAD severity in type 2 diabetic patients
The rise of securities markets : what can government do?
No full textUsing U.S. securities markets as a case history, the author explores the role securities markets play in economic development, how they emerge, and how regulation can make them more effective. Why the United States? Two centuries ago, it was a small undeveloped country with serious financial problems. It confronted those problems and, guided by Alexander Hamilton, creatively reformed its financial system, which then became a foundation of the U.S. economic infrastructure and a bulwark for long-term growth. When Hamilton's program established public credit and securitiesmarkets in the 1790s, U.S. citizens were immediately able to borrow from older, richer countries. U.S. wealth then increased until, by the end of the nineteenth century, U.S. residents began to lend and invest more abroad than they borrowed. During the 1820s and 1830s, the United States (usually state governments) borrowed large sums from foreign investors to build roads, canals, and early railroads, to make other transportation improvements, and to capitalize state banks. From the 1830s to the end of the century, still larger sums from overseas went into private U.S. railway companies that provided cheap transcontinental transportation. Most of this borrowing took the form of state and corporate bond sales to overseas investors. The pristine U.S. government credit established by Hamilton thus rubbed off on U.S. state and corporate debt. The British stock market did better than the U.S. market until the United States adopted security-market regulation (including disclosuire rules) under the SEC. Then the U.S. market became a world leader. The U.S. stock market developed more slowly than the bond market, but it both aided and benefited from foreign investment in U.S. bonds. Foreign investors preferred debt securities to equities, yet equities create a safety margin for bondholders who, because of this margin, are more willing to purchase and hold bonds. Foreign investors preferred bonds; U.S. investors, after exporting bonds, held more stocks than bonds at home. Why? Because good stock markets permit the conversion of equity securities into cash.Environmental Economics&Policies,Payment Systems&Infrastructure,Financial Intermediation,International Terrorism&Counterterrorism,Economic Theory&Research,Housing Finance,Insurance&Risk Mitigation,Financial Intermediation,Environmental Economics&Policies,Economic Theory&Research

The Western Scythian identity: a Territorial and archaeological “Puzzle”
No full textThe article included in the Proceedings of an international Congress held in Rome at the IsIAO, in 2005 entitled Iranian Identity in the course of History, outlines the historical and archaeological evidence of the Iranian Scythians from the Indo-European origins (Kurgan Culture, Sredni Stog, Cultura delle Catacombe etc.) to the historical and late historical time (Cimmerians, Scythians, Sauromatians, Sarmatians). To the light of a territorial approach the author tries to hypothesize the traces of the exact location of the archaeological remains related to that people, whose culture still keeps problems of interpretations and reveal to be a kind of a very archaeological puzzle. The Scythian identity to the light of the archaeological evidence still needs further investigation
