Analisi giuridica e procedure di stima nella valutazione di danni patrimoniali
Creators: name: Martino, Gaetano
Publisher: name: Aestimum
Year: 2009

description: The paper aims at analysing some elements of the model of damages concerning utilities stemming from productive goods. The topic is examined in the light of Italian Laws and literature. First of all is taken into account the jural conceptualisation of damages and the influence of the nature of the liablity. A specific attention is paid to both the causal nexus and the possibility of forecasting the consequences of the acts originating economic deadweight losses. The paper suggests that the evaluation model should be based upon the concept of economic organization. This framework seems to provide a more comprehensive conceptual support to the evaluation process. A simple procedure is provided, pointing out its compatibility with the usual approach in damages appraisal.

description: We conducted a three-stage genetic study to identify susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in east Asian populations. We followed our stage 1 meta-analysis of eight T2D genome-wide association studies (6,952 cases with T2D and 11,865 controls) with a stage 2 in silico replication analysis (5,843 cases and 4,574 controls) and a stage 3 de novo replication analysis (12,284 cases and 13,172 controls). The combined analysis identified eight new T2D loci reaching genome-wide significance, which mapped in or near GLIS3, PEPD, FITM2-R3HDML-HNF4A, KCNK16, MAEA, GCC1-PAX4, PSMD6 and ZFAND3. GLIS3, which is involved in pancreatic beta cell development and insulin gene expression1,2, is known for its association with fasting glucose levels3,4. The evidence of an association with T2D for PEPD5 and HNF4A6,7 has been shown in previous studies. KCNK16 may regulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion in the pancreas. These findings, derived from an east Asian population, provide new perspectives on the etiology of T2D.

Emanzipierte Fürstinnen oder Marionetten des adeligen Beziehungsgeflechts? Die Andechserinnen und ihre praktizierte Frömmigkeit in den europäischen Adelshäusern

description: Verschiedene Einflüsse, Umstände und Strukturen konnten auf Fürstinnen im 13. Jahrhundert einwirken. Daneben bestimmten soziale und dynastische Erwartungshaltungen und Pflichten deren Handeln, die zeitgleich auch Raum für individuelle Handlungsmuster boten. Mit den zwei adeligen Frauen Elisabeth von Thüringen und Agnes von Andechs, die beide mit derselben oder ähnlichen Frömmigkeitspraxis durch ihre andechs-meranische Herkunft vertraut waren, ist zu zeigen, dass die Frauen selbst bei gleicher Prägung durch ihre Herkunftsfamilie unterschiedliche individuelle Vorlieben in den eingeheirateten Familien praktizierten. Die Herkunft der Frauen stellt demnach keinen so entscheidenden Faktor für deren Prägung und Frömmigkeitspraxis dar, auch wenn manche Fürstinnen sich durchaus an der Linie ihrer Eltern orientierten. Das Individualitätsbewusstsein der Fürstinnen und ihre Stellung in der eingeheirateten Familie stellen vielmehr entscheidende Punkte dar, welche in dieses Konstrukt miteinbezogen werden müssen.

description: The internal dynamics of active gels, both in artificial (in-vitro) model systems and inside the cytoskeleton of living cells, has been extensively studied by experiments of recent years. These dynamics are probed using tracer particles embedded in the network of biopolymers together with molecular motors, and distinct non-thermal behavior is observed. We present a theoretical model of the dynamics of a trapped active particle, which allows us to quantify the deviations from equilibrium behavior, using both analytic and numerical calculations. We map the different regimes of dynamics in this system, and highlight the different manifestations of activity: breakdown of the virial theorem and equipartition, different elasticity-dependent "effective temperatures" and distinct non-Gaussian distributions. Our results shed light on puzzling observations in active gel experiments, and provide physical interpretation of existing observations, as well as predictions for future studies.

description: To identify genetic variants influencing plasma lipid concentrations, we first used genotype imputation and meta-analysis to combine three genome-wide scans totaling 8,816 individuals and comprising 6,068 individuals specific to our study (1,874 individuals from the FUSION study of type 2 diabetes and 4,184 individuals from the SardiNIA study of aging-associated variables) and 2,758 individuals from the Diabetes Genetics Initiative, reported in a companion study in this issue. We subsequently examined promising signals in 11,569 additional individuals. Overall, we identify strongly associated variants in eleven loci previously implicated in lipid metabolism (ABCA1, the APOA5-APOA4-APOC3-APOA1 and APOE-APOC clusters, APOB, CETP, GCKR, LDLR, LPL, LIPC, LIPG and PCSK9) and also in several newly identified loci (near MVK-MMAB and GALNT2, with variants primarily associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol; near SORT1, with variants primarily associated with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol; near TRIB1, MLXIPL and ANGPTL3, with variants primarily associated with triglycerides; and a locus encompassing several genes near NCAN, with variants strongly associated with both triglycerides and LDL cholesterol). Notably, the 11 independent variants associated with increased LDL cholesterol concentrations in our study also showed increased frequency in a sample of coronary artery disease cases versus controls.

Το πρώτο μέρος της εργασίας αναφέρεται στην κατηγοριοποίηση των στόχων, καθώς και στα είδη των σημάτων, ενώ γίνεται και μια βιβλιογραφική επισκόπηση σχετικά με τα διάφορα  μοντέλα εντοπισμού στόχων. Σε αυτό το μέρος, παραθέτουμε επίσης ξεχωριστή αναφορά και στον εντοπισμό των στατικών στόχων.
Στο δεύτερο μέρος παρουσιάζεται κύριο θέμα της εργασίας, όπου γίνεται λεπτομερής αναφορά στον εντοπισμό των κινούμενων στόχων σε διακριτό χώρο και έπειτα σε συνεχή χώρο, ενώ και στις δυο περιπτώσεις ο χρόνος παραμένει διακριτός. Στη συνέχεια, γίνεται ειδική μνεία στην εκθετική συνάρτηση εντοπισμού στόχου όταν ο χρόνος είναι διακριτός. Τέλος, προχωράμε στην αναζήτηση στόχου σε συνεχή χώρο και χρόνο και παραθέτουμε ορισμένους περιορισμούς που προκύπτουν κατά την αναζήτηση τους σε πραγματικές συνθήκες.
Τέλος, με βάση τις παραπάνω παρατηρήσεις μας, καταλήγουμε στο πόσο σημαντική είναι στην εποχή μας η αναζήτηση στόχων και η περαιτέρω ανάπτυξη της έρευνας κινούμενου στόχου, όσο η τεχνολογία εξελίσσεται και η ανάγκη εύρεσης καταλλήλων αλγορίθμων για τη σωστή λειτουργία των αυτοματοποιημένων συστημάτων άμυνας, έρευνας και διάσωσης.

We find no evidence for expansion or contraction of the Taurus complex, but a clear indication for a global rotation, resulting in velocity gradients, this suggests a common origin, possibly related to that of Gould's Belt.

Interaction of solitons in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates and formation of soliton molecules

description: The interaction between two bright solitons in a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) has been investigated aiming at finding the regimes when they form a stable bound state, known as soliton molecule. To study soliton interactions in BEC we employed a method similar to that used in experimental investigation of the interaction between solitons in optical fibers. The idea consists in creating two solitons at some spatial separation from each other at initial time $t_0$, and then measuring the distance between them at a later time $t_1 > t_0$. Depending on whether the distance between solitons has increased, decreased or remained unchanged, compared to its initial value at $t_0$, we conclude that soliton interaction was repulsive, attractive or neutral, respectively. We propose an experimentally viable method for estimating the binding energy of a soliton molecule, based on its dissociation at critical soliton velocity. Our theoretical analysis is based on the variational approach, which appears to be quite accurate in describing the properties of soliton molecules in dipolar BEC, as reflected in good agreement between the analytical and numerical results.

description: This document is a response from 2i2c.org to the NASA SMD call for proposals F.15 High Priority Open Source Science (NNH22ZDA001N-HPOSS). The submission proposes to launch ephemeral interactive computing platforms for NASA communities to help advance the agency's Open Source Science Initiative. Interactive computing is changing workflows for collaborative science. This evolution, driven by technological and social innovations, provokes a reimagining of science at grand scale. The unification of federal agencies to declare 2023 as the Year of Open Science makes now the right time to build the new technologies, set the interoperability standards, and define the social collaboration structures necessary for a new era of open-source science. We propose to launch ephemeral interactive computing services for NASA that will: Improve shareability and reproducibility of scientific information, Broaden participation by historically excluded and under-resourced communities in science, Enable interactive computing activities (hackathons, demonstrations, training programs) during workshops and conferences. These outcomes will be achieved by deploying and operating persistent “binder” services with access and scope controls designed for usage scenarios by NASA communities.

description: We have profiled promoter DNA methylation alterations in 272 glioblastoma tumors in the context of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We found that a distinct subset of samples displays concerted hypermethylation at a large number of loci, indicating the existence of a glioma-CpG island methylator phenotype (G-CIMP). We validated G-CIMP in a set of non-TCGA glioblastomas and low-grade gliomas. G-CIMP tumors belong to the proneural subgroup, are more prevalent among lower-grade gliomas, display distinct copynumber alterations, and are tightly associated with IDH1 somatic mutations. Patients with G-CIMP tumors are younger at the time of diagnosis and experience significantly improved outcome. These findings identify G-CIMP as a distinct subset of human gliomas on molecular and clinical grounds.

description: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, referred to as COVID-19 in this paper) is a novel coronavirus first discovered in Wuhan, China (Tan & Aboulhosn, 2020). Since it’s discovery it has spread across the world and as of 8th May there have been 156,496,592 confirmed cases of COVID around the world with 3,264,142 confirmed deaths (WHO, 2021). Current literature suggests the pandemic and subsequent government responses have had a significant impact on the global population with rises in mental health difficulties, poorer physical health, relationship difficulties and changes to people’s work lives. Despite an awareness of people with chronic illnesses being at greater risk of severe illness and death from covid-19, there is minimal research on how the pandemic has impacted this group, and even less on how it has affected people with specific types of chronic illness such as epilepsy or congenital heart disease (CHD). Due to these identified gaps in the literature, this study focussed on the experiences of people with CHD during the pandemic in the U.K. Informed by critical realist epistemology and using qualitative methodology nine participants took part in semi-structured interviews to gather information on how their lives had been impacted by the current pandemic. Ages ranged from 32 to 54 years and the sample consisted of seven women and two men. Using inductive thematic analysis three themes were constructed from the data; ‘vulnerability’, ‘wellbeing’ and ‘staying connected’. Similarly, to existing research, participants identified difficulties in their mental wellbeing, changes in their physical health and difficulties in relationships and work. Difficulties experienced by being labelled as vulnerable, being in the shielding group or not, narratives from others as ‘burdensome’ and significant lifestyle changes were raised and add to the existing literature. Recommendations for further research and improvements to government policy and guidelines are made.

description: A bound state in the continuum (BIC) is an unusual localized state that is embedded in a continuum of extended states. Here, we present the general condition for BICs to arise from wave equation separability and show that the directionality and dimensionality of their resonant radiation can be controlled by exploiting perturbations of certain symmetry. Using this general framework, we construct new examples of separable BICs in realistic models of optical potentials for ultracold atoms, photonic systems, and systems described by tight binding. Such BICs with easily reconfigurable radiation patterns allow for applications such as the storage and release of waves at a controllable rate and direction, systems that switch between different dimensions of confinement, and experimental realizations in atomic, optical, and electronic systems.

description: Single-wall carbon nanotube are considered a fascinating nanomaterial for photonic applications and are especially promising for efficient light emitter in the telecommunication wavelength range. Furthermore, their hybrid integration with silicon photonic structures makes them an ideal platform to explore the carbon nanotube instrinsic properties. Here we report on the strong photoluminescence enhancement from carbon nanotubes integrated in silicon ring resonator circuit under two pumping configurations: surface-illuminated pumping at 735 nm and collinear pumping at 1.26 μm. Extremely efficient rejection of the non-resonant photoluminescence was obtained. In the collinear approach, an emission efficiency enhancement by a factor of 26 has been demonstrated in comparison with classical pumping scheme. This demonstration pave the way for the development of integrated light source in silicon based on carbon nanotubes.

A Curved Brunn-Minkowski Inequality for the Symmetric Group

description: In this paper, we construct an injection $A \times B \rightarrow M \times M$ from the product of any two nonempty subsets of the symmetric group into the square of their midpoint set, where the metric is that corresponding to the conjugacy class of transpositions. If $A$ and $B$ are disjoint, our construction allows to inject two copies of $A \times B$ into $M \times M$. These injections imply a positively curved Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the symmetric group analogous to that obtained by Ollivier and Villani for the hypercube. However, while Ollivier and Villani's inequality is optimal, we believe that the curvature term in our inequality can be improved. We identify a hypothetical concentration inequality in the symmetric group and prove that it yields an optimally curved Brunn-Minkowski inequality.

description: Questo articolo vuole analizzare come è possibile curare attraverso il logoi, così come è stato suggerito da Antifonte e Gorgia. Antifonte è noto per aver composto una techne alupias, una pratica per eliminare il dolore attraverso i logoi; Gorgia invece ha dedicato parti significative del suo Encomio a Elena a definire il logos in una doppia chiave, in quanto forza in grado di eliminare il dolore e originare il piacere. Entrambi gli autori sembrano conoscere molto bene l’aspetto performativo del logoi. È particolarmente interessante notare come la filosofia antica rifletta sull’uso del linguaggio come metodo per curare sia la sofferenza psicologica sia il dolore umano.

This paper aims to analyse how is it possible to cure through the logoi as it was suggested by Antiphon and Gorgias. Antiphon is known to have composed a techne alupias, a practice to eliminate pain through logoi; Gorgias, on the other hand, dedicated significant parts of his Encomium to Helen to define the force of logos in a double direction, as it is able to eliminate pain and originate pleasure. Both the authors seem to know the performative aspect of logoi very well. It is remarkably interesting to notice how ancient philosophy reflects on the use of the language as a method to cure both psychological suffering and human pain.

description: Polarization induced degenerate $n$-type doping with electron concentrations up to $\sim$10$^{20}$\,cm$^{-3}$ is achieved in graded Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1-x}$N layers ($x$: 0\%$\rightarrow$37\%) grown on unintentionally doped and on $n$-doped GaN:Si buffer/reservoir layers by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. High resolution x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy confirm the gradient in the composition of the Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1-x}$N layers, while magnetotransport studies reveal the formation of a three dimensional electron slab, whose conductivity can be adjusted through the GaN(:Si) buffer/reservoir.

description: The oxidation and corrosion of metals are fundamental problems in materials science and technology that have been studied using a large variety of experimental and computational techniques. Here we review some of the recent studies that have led to significant advances in our atomic-level understanding of copper oxide, one of the most studied and best understood metal oxides. We show that a good atomistic understanding of the physical characteristics of cuprous (Cu$_2$O) and cupric (CuO) oxide and of some key processes of their formation has been obtained. Indeed, the growth of the oxide has been shown to be epitaxial with the surface and to proceed, in most cases, through the formation of oxide nano-islands which, with continuous oxygen exposure, grow and eventually coalesce. We also show how electronic structure calculations have become increasingly useful in helping to characterise the structures and energetics of various Cu oxide surfaces. However a number of challenges remain. For example, it is not clear under which conditions the oxidation of copper in air at room temperature (known as native oxidation) leads to the formation of a cuprous oxide film only, or also of a cupric overlayer. Moreover, the atomistic details of the nucleation of the oxide islands are still unknown. We close our review with a brief perspective on future work and discuss how recent advances in experimental techniques, bringing greater temporal and spatial resolution, along with improvements in the accuracy, realism and timescales achievable with computational approaches make it possible for these questions to be answered in the near future.

description: For parents of children with an Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), high quality, easily accessible information and a strong peer network can be the key to raising a happy, healthy child, and maintaining family well-being and emotional resilience. This article reports the findings of an anonymous survey examining the information source preferences for 935 parents of individuals with ASDs in North Carolina. Data indicates that parents show similar information seeking patterns across the age spectrum, that availability of information (as indicated by overall information source selection) decrease as children age. It also shows that parents rely heavily on local sources of information, preferring them to nonlocal sources (such as the internet) for many types of information.

description: In order to reduce backgrounds from radon-daughter plate-out onto detector surfaces, an ultra-low-radon cleanroom is being commissioned at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology. An improved vacuum-swing-adsorption radon mitigation system and cleanroom build upon a previous design implemented at Syracuse University that achieved radon levels of $\sim$0.2$\,$Bq$\,$m$^{-3}$. This improved system will employ a better pump and larger carbon beds feeding a redesigned cleanroom with an internal HVAC unit and aged water for humidification. With the rebuilt (original) radon mitigation system, the new low-radon cleanroom has already achieved a $>$$\,$300$\times$ reduction from an input activity of $58.6\pm0.7$$\,$Bq$\,$m$^{-3}$ to a cleanroom activity of $0.13\pm0.06$$\,$Bq$\,$m$^{-3}$.

description: To understand the seemingly absent temperature dependence in the conductance of two-dimensional topological insulator edge states, we perform a numerical study which identifies the quantitative influence of the combined effect of dephasing and elastic scattering in charge puddles close to the edges. We show that this mechanism may be responsible for the experimental signatures in HgTe/CdTe quantum wells if the puddles in the samples are large and weakly coupled to the sample edges. We propose experiments on artificial puddles which allow to verify this hypothesis and to extract the real dephasing time scale using our predictions. In addition, we present a new method to include the effect of dephasing in wave-packet-time-evolution algorithms.

description: 1. Bictegravir (BIC) is a potent small-molecule integrase strand-transfer inhibitor (INSTI) and a component of Biktarvy®, a single-tablet combination regimen that is currently approved for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. The absorption, metabolism, distribution, and elimination (ADME) characteristics of BIC were determined through in vivo nonclinical and clinical studies (IND 121318). 2. [14C]BIC was rapidly absorbed orally in mice, rats, monkeys and human. The cumulative dose recovery was high in nonclinical species (> 80%) and humans (95.3%), with most of the excreted dose recovered in faeces. Quantifiable radioactivity with declining concentration was observed in rat tissues suggesting reversible binding. Unchanged BIC was the most abundant circulating component in all species along with two notable metabolites M20 (a sulfate conjugate of hydroxylated BIC) and M15 (a glucuronide conjugate of BIC). BIC was primarily eliminated by hepatic metabolism followed by excretion of the biotransformed products into faeces. In vitro drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies with M15 and M20 demonstrated that no clinically relevant interactions were expected. 3. Overall, BIC is a novel and potent INSTI with a favourable resistance, PK, and ADME profile that provides important improvements over other currently available INSTIs for the treatment of HIV-1.
Stunting is associated with overweight in children of four nations that are undergoing the nutrition transition

description: A higher risk of obesity in stunted children has been described in Hispanic-American, Jamaican and Andean populations, but little systematic exploration has been done concerning this area in nutrition. This paper examines the relationship between stunting and overweight status for children aged 3–6 and 7–9 y in nationally representative surveys in Russia, Brazil, and the Republic of South Africa and a large nationwide survey in China. Using identical cut-offs for body mass index, the prevalence of child overweight in these countries ranges from 10.5 to 25.6% (based on the 85th percentile); recent NHANES III results indicate that this prevalence is around 22% in the U.S. Stunting is also common in the surveyed countries affecting 9.2–30.6% of all children. Our results showed a significant association between stunting and overweight status in children of all countries. The income-adjusted risk ratios of being overweight for a stunted child ranged from 1.7 to 7.8. Clearly, there is an important association between stunting and high weight-for-height in a variety of ethnic environmental and social backgrounds. Although the underlying mechanisms remain unexplored, this association has serious public health implications particularly for lower income countries. As these countries enter the nutrition transition experiencing large changes in dietary and activity patterns, they may face, among other problems, additional difficulties in their fight against obesity.
