La specificità tunisina: Egemonia politica e habitus dell’impegno nell’Islam pubblico contemporaneo
Authors: Copertino Domenico 
Published: June 2024

L’elaborazione islamica delle idee di democrazia, pluralismo e libertà, condotta dai movimenti islamici tunisini dopo la rivoluzione del 2011, può essere considerata come parte di una tradizione discorsiva (Asad 1986) incentrata sulla “specificità tunisina”. Questa tradizione prevede l’interpretazione delle fonti islamiche classiche e moderne da parte di autorità religiose e secolari, finalizzata a legittimare l’impegno sociale e politico in nome dell’Islam. La specificità tunisina è un discorso che si richiama alle interpretazioni locali delle pratiche islamiche (come il sufismo e il marabuttismo), sull’opera dei pensatori dell’Islam moderno e sui ragionamenti su democrazia e diritti umani, allo scopo di costruire una cornice teorica all’interno della quale approfondire i concetti di moderazione, tolleranza, pluralismo e attività politica a partire da una prospettiva islamica. Questo contributo fa parte di una ricerca etnografica condotta dal 2012 e il 2015 tra gli attivisti del pubblico islamico tunisino. Tale categoria comprende sia gli islamisti (ovvero gli attivisti dei movimenti e partiti impegnati direttamente nell’agone politico) che i du‘at (gli attivisti della società civile e delle associazioni impostate sulla devozione, impegnati a diffondere il messaggio islamico dal basso). L’osservazione delle interrelazioni tra i due gruppi e della condivisione della medesima cornice teorica (la specificità tunisina) e vocabolario (libertà, dignità, diritti umani e così via) fa comprendere come la netta distinzione tra un attivismo islamico di tipo politico ed uno di tipo socioculturale deve essere messa in discussione.

Guilty of lese-racism: A court judgement for the crime of union of conjugal nature between citizens and subjects
Authors: Gabrielli Gianluca 
Published: June 2024

The text takes its cue from a 1939 court judgment regarding a “racial” crime and goes on to analyse the characteristics of fascist colonial racism, which throughout this period was undergoing significant changes. The assertion of the superiority of the “white race” moves from common social discrimination of the liberal period, to an assertion of superiority codified in law and the basis of the native policy. The custom of white men (usually soldiers) taking local black women as sexual partners – so-called “madamato”, which was both racist and sexist, becomes the main target of State repression, in the name of a rigid separation and hierarchical classification of the “races”.

Introduction: Datura stramonium (DS) is a medicinal plant widely distributed across the globe, including in Nigeria and West Africa. Pharmacological, physiological, and histological studies have demonstrated the neurotoxicity of the plant in animals and humans. Ascorbic acid is a potent reducing agent and scavenger of free radicals in biological systems.
Aim: This study was undertaken to advance our knowledge on Datura stramonium leaf toxicity and investigate ascorbic acid efficacy on the frontal cortex damage induced by the alcoholic extract of Datura stramonium leaf in adult male Wistar rats.
Settings and Design: Thirty (30) adults male Wistar rats weighing about 120±20g were divided into six groups (A-F) of five animals each for oral administration over 14 days.
Materials and Methods:

Group A (Control): Received only rat feeds and water.
Group B: Received 200 mg/kg alcoholic extract of Datura stramonium.
Group C: Received 400 mg/kg alcoholic extract of Datura stramonium.
Group D: Received 200 mg/kg body weight alcoholic extract of Datura stramonium and 200 mg/kg body weight of Vitamin C.
Group E: Received 400 mg/kg body weight alcoholic extract of Datura stramonium and 200 mg/kg body weight of Vitamin C.
Group F: Received 200 mg/kg body weight of Vitamin C. The experimental animals were euthanized, and sections of the frontal cortex of the brain were harvested for histological procedures, organ weight (brain) and body weight of experimental animals were obtained.

The data was subjected to a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Results: Histological observations indicated that the administration of the alcoholic extract of DS leaf in Group C showed degeneration of neurons in the frontal cortex. Groups that received ascorbic acid along with DS leaf in smaller doses showed no significant changes and had normal neuronal cells and stroma. Changes observed in body weight were not statistically significant at p-value <0.05.
Conclusion: This study suggests that ascorbic acid effectively reduces the neurotoxicity potential of Datura stramonium on the frontal cortex. The DS leaf extract may have neurodegenerative effects at high doses, and precautions should be taken when consuming DS, as it may adversely affect and damage neurons in the frontal cortex.
Pflicht zur Eintragung von Beherrschungsverträgen auch ohne Abfindung nach § 305 Abs. 1 AktG — Eine Auseinandersetzung mit der registergerichtlichen Praxis
Authors: Wandt Andre P. H. , Herold Dominic 
Published: June 2024

Zusammenfassung
Basierend auf einer vereinzelten Ansicht im Schrifttum berufen sich Registergerichte in der Praxis mitunter auf ein Recht, die Eintragung eines Unternehmensvertrags zu verweigern, wenn dieser keine Abfindungsregelung nach § 305 Abs.1 AktG vorsieht, obgleich an der abhängigen Gesellschaft keine außenstehenden Aktionäre beteiligt sind. Der nachfolgende Beitrag widerlegt diesen Ansatz.
Einheit und Vielfalt des Verbraucherbegriffs im Unionsprivatrecht
Authors: Horn Simon 
Published: June 2024

Zusammenfassung
Trotz seiner Zergliederung in eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Rechtsakte bedient sich das Unionsprivatrecht einer im Ausgangspunkt einheitlichen Legaldefinition des Verbraucherbegriffs. Dieser sieht sich jedoch seit geraumer Zeit einer wachsenden Differenzierungstendenz ausgesetzt, die jüngst in einer (mehrfach) gespaltenen Auslegung gipfelte. Dieser Tendenz setzt der Beitrag ein Plädoyer für die Rückbesinnung auf eine einheitliche Auslegung des unionsprivatrechtlichen Verbraucherbegriffs entgegen.
Medial versus lateral condyle bone mineral density ratios in a cross‐sectional study: A potential marker for medial knee osteoarthritis severity
Authors: Akamatsu Yasushi , Mitsugi Naoto , Taki Naoya , Kobayashi Hideo , Saito Tomoyuki 
Published: February 2012

AbstractObjectiveTo assess the association of bone mineral density (BMD) of the femoral and tibial condyles with knee pain and disease severity in women with symptomatic medial knee osteoarthritis (OA).MethodsWe enrolled 192 women (ages 41–90 years) between April 2007 and March 2011. The subjects were divided into 2 groups according to joint space narrowing (JSN) on weight‐bearing radiographs. BMD of the lumbar spine, proximal femur, and knee condyles was measured. Medial and lateral condyle BMDs of the femur and tibia as well as the medial versus lateral condyle BMD ratios were measured.ResultsMean medial condyle BMDs, medial versus lateral condyle BMD ratios, and visual analog scale (VAS) pain in both the femur and the tibia were higher in the obliteration group compared with the narrowing group (P < 0.001 for all). A significant positive correlation was observed between the femoral and tibial condyles in the following parameters: medial condyle BMDs, lateral condyle BMDs, and medial versus lateral condyle BMD ratios (r = 0.791–0.844). In both the femur and the tibia, medial versus lateral condyle BMD ratios had significant positive correlations with femorotibial angle, medial osteophytes, lateral osteophytes, medial JSN, and VAS pain, and had significant negative correlations with the Knee Society pain and function scores.ConclusionAlthough this study was a cross‐sectional study, the femoral and tibial medial versus lateral condyle BMD ratios increased with more severe knee pain and might be a potential marker for monitoring disease severity in women with symptomatic medial knee OA.
Long‐term trends in food availability, food prices, and obesity in samoa
Authors: Seiden Andrew , Hawley Nicola L. , Schulz Dirk , Raifman Sarah , McGarvey Stephen T. 
Published: February 2012

AbstractObjectives: To describe long‐term food availability and prices from 1961 to 2007 and body mass index (BMI) trends from 1980 to 2010 in Samoa, and to contextualize these trends within political, economic, cultural, behavioral, and climatic influences.Methods: National level data on food availability and pricing were obtained from the open access database FAO (http://faostat.fao.org). Data for Samoa were collected from annual food balance sheets available for the period 1961–2007. Mean BMI for Samoan men and women aged 35–44 years of age is reported from four different time periods, 1979–1982, 1991, 2003, and 2010.Results: Total energy availability increased substantially, by 47%, with more than 900 extra calories available per capita per day in 2007 than in 1961. Many of these extra calories are supplied by dietary fat, the availability of which rose by a proportionally greater amount, 73%. Availability of both meat and vegetable oils rose substantially. Poultry meat increased the most proportionally, from 10 to 117 kcal per capita per day. Coconut products, fruits, and starchy root crops—all locally grown—showed little to no increase over this time. As import prices for poultry and mutton increased their availability decreased, but the availability of vegetable oils rose despite a rise in their price. Mean BMI for men and women aged 35–44 years rose 18% rise from 1980 to 2010.Conclusions: These long‐term trends in food availability and prices, and the temporal pattern of BMI provide national level data for understanding the process of the nutritional transition in Samoa. Further work on consumer food prices, diet, food security, and health is needed to further contextualize the transformation of the local food system in Samoa. Samoa. Am. J. Hum.

Technical note: Tree truthing: How accurate are substrate estimates in primate field studies?
Authors: Bezanson Michelle , Watts Sean M. , Jobin Matthew J. 
Published: February 2012

AbstractField studies of primate positional behavior typically rely on ground‐level estimates of substrate size, angle, and canopy location. These estimates potentially influence the identification of positional modes by the observer recording behaviors. In this study we aim to test ground‐level estimates against direct measurements of support angles, diameters, and canopy heights in trees at La Suerte Biological Research Station in Costa Rica. After reviewing methods that have been used by past researchers, we provide data collected within trees that are compared to estimates obtained from the ground. We climbed five trees and measured 20 supports. Four observers collected measurements of each support from different locations on the ground. Diameter estimates varied from the direct tree measures by 0–28 cm (Mean: 5.44 ± 4.55). Substrate angles varied by 1–55° (Mean: 14.76 ± 14.02). Height in the tree was best estimated using a clinometer as estimates with a two‐meter reference placed by the tree varied by 3–11 meters (Mean: 5.31 ± 2.44). We determined that the best support size estimates were those generated relative to the size of the focal animal and divided into broader categories. Support angles were best estimated in 5° increments and then checked using a Haglöf clinometer in combination with a laser pointer. We conclude that three major factors should be addressed when estimating support features: observer error (e.g., experience and distance from the target), support deformity, and how support size and angle influence the positional mode selected by a primate individual. individual.

The dark side of benzene: Interference vs. interaction
Authors: Bohr D. , Schmitteckert P. 
Published: February 2012

AbstractWe present the study of the linear conductance vs. applied gate voltage for an interacting six site ring structure, which is threaded by a flux of π and coupled to a left and a right lead. This ring structure is designed to have a vanishing conductance for all gate voltages and temperatures provided interactions are ignored. Therefore this system is an ideal testbed to study the interplay of interaction and interference. First we find a Kondo type resonance for rather large hopping parameter. Second, we find additional resonance peaks which can be explained by a population blocking mechanism. To this end we have to extend the Kubo approach within the Density Matrix Renormalization Group method to handle degenerate states.
Lipid components of flax, perilla, and chia seeds
Authors: Ciftci Ozan Nazim , Przybylski Roman , Rudzińska Magdalena 
Published: February 2012

AbstractComposition of fatty acids, tocopherols, sterols, and TAGs in the lipids of flax, perilla, and chia seeds were investigated where lipid content was at 45, 40, and 35%, respectively. α‐Linolenic acid (ALA) dominated among fatty acids in all oils and accounted for 58.2, 60.9, and 59.8% in flax, perilla, and chia, correspondingly in these three oils trilinolenin was the main TAG found at 19.7, 22.6, and 21.3%. Triunsaturated TAGs accounted for 77.9, 77.5, and 74.5% of the total amounts in flax, perilla, and chia oils. Contents of tocopherol were at 747 in flax, 734 in perilla, and 446 mg/kg in chia seed lipids. γ‐Tocopherol was the dominating isomer contributing 72.7% in flax, 94.3% in perilla, and 94.4% in chia to the total amount of tocopherols. Flaxseed lipids contained 25.6% of plastochromanol‐8, derivative of γ‐tocotrienol with longer side chain; perilla and chia oils contained only 1.4% of it. Phytosterols were present at 4072, 4606, and 4132 mg/kg in those seeds, respectively. Among sterols, β‐sitosterol dominated and was found at 35.6, 73.3, and 49.8% of the total amounts of sterols in flax, perilla, and chia seed lipids. All of the investigated oilseeds have an excellent nutritional quality and can be a potential source of nutraceutical fats which can enrich diet in linolenic acid and other functional components.
Variation of feedstock in a dual fluidized bed steam gasifier—influence on product gas, tar content, and composition
Authors: Schmid Johannes C. , Wolfesberger Ute , Koppatz Stefan , Pfeifer Christoph , Hofbauer Hermann 
Published: February 2012

AbstractA steam blown dual fluidized bed gasification plant was used to yield a nitrogen (N2) free product gas (synthesis gas) from various biomass fuels. In addition to the variation of process parameters like temperature, steam to carbon ratio, fluidization rate, and the influence of different bed materials, various feedstock inputs affected the generation of the product gas. This study focuses on the gasification of different biomass feedstock. The variation of biomass implies wood chips, wood pellets, sewage sludge pellets, and straw pellets. The chosen evaluated experimental results are all gained from the uniformly operated “classical” 100 kW “DUAL FLUID” gasifier at Vienna University of Technology at constant gasification temperatures between 800°C and 810°C. In the “classical” design, the gasification reactor is a bubbling fluidized bed. The composition and ash melting behavior of each feedstock is displayed, as well as the ranges of the product gas compositions generated. Beside the main gaseous product gas components, typical content ranges of dust and char are highlighted. The content and composition of tar in the product gas is discussed. Further it is possible to present gravimetrical and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry measured tar values. Not less than five significant component‐groups of tar will also be outlined for each feedstock. © 2012 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 2012
Predicting vocal emotion expressions from the human brain
Authors: Kotz Sonja A. , Kalberlah Christian , Bahlmann Jörg , Friederici Angela D. , Haynes John‐D. 
Published: February 2012

AbstractSpeech is an important carrier of emotional information. However, little is known about how different vocal emotion expressions are recognized in a receiver's brain. We used multivariate pattern analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging data to investigate to which degree distinct vocal emotion expressions are represented in the receiver's local brain activity patterns. Specific vocal emotion expressions are encoded in a right fronto‐operculo‐temporal network involving temporal regions known to subserve suprasegmental acoustic processes and a fronto‐opercular region known to support emotional evaluation, and, moreover, in left temporo‐cerebellar regions covering sequential processes. The right inferior frontal region, in particular, was found to differentiate distinct emotional expressions. The present analysis reveals vocal emotion to be encoded in a shared cortical network reflected by distinct brain activity patterns. These results shed new light on theoretical and empirical controversies about the perception of distinct vocal emotion expressions at the level of large‐scale human brain signals.
