I modelli di dialogo bi- e plurilingui concepiti come supporto di mediazione linguistica per le interazioni face-to-face. L?esempio della comunicazione in ambito turistico
Creators: name: H�Hmann, Doris
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo

description: Il presente capitolo si propone di discutere i modelli di dialogo bi- e plurilingui concepiti come ulteriore tipo di supporto di mediazione linguistica che mira a facilitare la realizzazione di interazioni face-to-face di una certa complessit� tra parlanti con background linguistici e/o culturali molto diversi. Partendo dall?individuazione di sequenze e pratiche comunicative ricorrenti molto specifiche e circoscritte (riguardanti ad esempio la vendita di prodotti tipici, l?erogazione di servizi o la richiesta di informazioni), la realizzazione dei supporti ?su misura? si basa sulla ricostruzione di eventi comunicativi e sulla soluzione anticipata delle difficolt� prevedibili. Il capitolo � suddiviso in quattro parti. Ai cenni introduttivi segue nel secondo paragrafo l?approfondimento di alcuni aspetti linguistico-comunicativi utili per inquadrare il recupero della dimensione pragmatica nella creazione di risorse linguistico-comunicative in particolare e per l?approccio scelto; nel terzo paragrafo si discutono le principali caratteristiche dei modelli di dialogo e le funzioni o gli usi di questo tipo di supporto linguistico in ambito turistico. L?ultima parte del contributo riassume i possibili usi dei modelli di dialogo bi- e plurilingui; inoltre � dedicata ai desiderata e alle prospettive di ricerca legate alla realizzazione e all?uso dei supporti, con particolare riferimento all?incidenza dell?ambito comunicativo sulle esigenze della comunicazione bi- e plurilingue che emerge dalla prima analisi contrastiva degli ambiti comunicativi finora presi in considerazione: quello turistico e quello medico/ospedaliero.
Phenolic characterization and bioactivity of microwave-assisted extracts from edible house crickets (Acheta domesticus)
Creators: name: Bernal, Maria C Nino
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Food sciences not elsewhere classified

description: Entomophagy, which is the habit of eating insects, has become relevant in the past few years as it could potentially help reduce current and future food insecurity, due to the highly nutritious and sustainable characteristics of edible insects. In addition to the nutritional content of insects, research on the potential bioactive components of insect extracts has also gained popularity. In this study, extracts from house cricket (Acheta domesticus) from two farms and their corresponding feeds were obtained using a microwave-assisted extraction. Further phenolic characterization led to the identification and quantification of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid and syringic acid as major phenolic compounds in both A. domesticus extracts as well as both feed extracts. Additionally, in vitro antioxidant activity was evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical cation (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical assays. In both in vitro assays, A. domesticus extracts showed higher antioxidant activity compared to the feeds. Antibacterial activity against E. coli and L. innocua was also evaluated using the microwell method. The A. domesticus extracts showed a selective inhibition (p<0.05) towards the gram-positive bacteria L. innocua between a period of 4 to 8 h. This inhibition is thought to have occurred as a result of the presence of phenolic acids and antimicrobial peptides, while the feed extracts did not exhibit any inhibitory activity towards any of the bacteria. The finding of the same phenolic acids in A. domesticus and their corresponding feed could imply the capacity of A. domesticus to absorb and sequester dietary phenolics that may provide additional health benefits when the insect is consumed, unveiling new benefits of entomophagy.
MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING ALGORITHMS FOR TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS
Creators: name: BETTINELLI, ANDREA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2010

description: The thesis deals with the study of transportation problems, and in particular focuses on developing new exact and heuristic
algorithms for two interesting variants of the well known Vehicle Routing Problem: the multi-depot heterogeneous-fleet vehicle routing problem with time windows and the multi-depot heterogeneous-fleet pickup and delivery problem with soft time windows.
The studied problems consider additional real-world requirements, often neglected in the literature. They lead to more involved problems but on the other hand more realistic ones, that call for powerful optimization methods in order to tackle such difficult applications. The proposed algorithms are based on mathematical programming techniques, such as branch-and-price, column generation and dynamic programming.
The performance of the algorithms is analyzed with extensive computational experiments and compared with the most effective algorithms from the literature, showing the usefulness of the proposed methods.
Volterra rough equations

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Probability theory

description: We extend the recently developed rough path theory to the case of more rough noise and/or more singular Volterra kernels. It was already observed that the Volterra rough path introduced there did not satisfy any geometric relation, similar to that observed in classical rough path theory. Thus, an extension of the theory to more irregular driving signals requires a deeper understanding of the specific algebraic structure arising in the Volterra rough path. Inspired by the elements of "non-geometric rough paths" developed, we provide a simple description of the Volterra rough path and the controlled Volterra process in terms of rooted trees, and with this description we are able to solve rough Volterra equations driven by more irregular signals.

Ram�n e l?umorismo
Creators: name: BAGLIONE, ANDREA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2019

description: Ram�n G�mez de la Serna is unanimously considered by critics as the forerunner of the avant-garde in Spain. Although his works have been studied by many important scholars, the scope of his literary production still allows for new approaches and analysis.
This thesis is divided into four parts. The first deals with Ram�n?s life and his relationship with the European avant-gardes; this relationship cannot be ignored in an attempt to understand the most important meaning of his works and to grasp the essence of his poetics. Besides his many journeys, his success in France, his discussed franquismo and his exile in America after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War, three more important aspects are underlined: the organization of the first cubist exhibition in Madrid in 1915, the importance of objects in his life and literature, and how he became a well-known figure, much more than a famous writer in the first thirty years of ninteenth-century Spain.
The second chapter focuses on the importance of humour in his works and how this aspect has been studied by critics in ninteenth-century Spain. The essays of P�o Baroja, Wenceslao Fern�ndez Flores, Antonio Bot�n Polanco, Evaristo Acevedo, Santiago Vilas, Jos�-Carlos Mainer, Raquel Pelta and Ram�n himself are analyzed from a diachronic perspective. The second section of the chapter is dedicated to the proposal of a rigorous theoretical model of humour based on Laura Salmon?s study I meccanismi dell?umorismo and on her analysis and interpretation of Bergson?s, Freud?s and Pirandello?s theories of humour.
The third and last chapter is a first attempt to study Ram�n?s work through the rigorous theory of humour proposed in the second chapter. The presence and mechanisms of humour are studied in four important books, published when G�mez de la Serna became known as a ?humourist?: Disparates (1921), Variaciones (1922), Ramonismo (1923) and Caprichos (1925).
The fourth part of the thesis is the presentation of 21 important writings that Ram�n published in the review ?Ondas? in 1927 and 1928, and that are still relatively unknown even to the majority of critics, as they were not included in Vent�n Pereira?s book Radiorramonismo.

title: Theatre, Performance and Representation: African Diasporic Identity on the British Stage
Creators: name: Ekumah-Asamoah, Rachel Ekua
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: African Diasporic Identity, Theatre, Representation, British Stage

description: The focus of this thesis is the performance of African diasporic identities through a unique theatre emerging from the second and third generations of peoples and communities of the African Diaspora in Britain. The politics, the dynamics, articulation and representation of these identities on the British stage, forms a major part of this investigation, which also goes beyond the stage to comment on British society itself.
    
The discipline of theatre and performance are appropriate vehicles to research the notion of African diasporic identity because they continue to be an essential part of any nation’s cultural discourse on who, what and why they are. Nadine Holdsworth argues that theatre at a basic level is: 

       intrinsically connected to nation because it enhances “national” life by providing a space for shared civil discourse…  Theatre as a material, social and cultural practice, offers the chance to explore histories, behaviours, events and preoccupations in a creative communal realm that opens up potential for reflection and debate.  (2010, p. 6)

The relationship between the current context of Britain and an emotional or physical link to Africa or the Caribbean and the negotiations that characterize that relationship underpin the examination of the constantly shifting diasporic identities in this study.  The theatre coming from these African diaspora communities is exhibiting characters on the British stage that are a reflection of African diasporic individuals who are no longer agreeing to be confined to the margins of society by claiming their rightful place in the public domain, in the centre themselves. The theatre is reflecting that by beginning to move outside the confines of the margins.
        
This investigation looks at a spectrum of African diasporic dramatists and theatre companies, examining how they use the theatre to explore the complex, multifaceted and subtly layered identities that the African in the diaspora has become, whilst revealing whether the current prominence of African diasporic dramatists in the mainstream is only perceived or confirm that indeed African diasporic identity has claimed the space to articulate being ‘here’ and also relating to ‘there.'

Year: 2018

description: Since the beginning of human cultivation, the role of plants in medicine has been of huge importance. The aim of this PhD Project is to investigate some forage plants belonging to the family of Fabaceae to gain knowledge concerning their possible use in nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and cosmetics field. These plants have been chosen because they are characterized by great productive potential, but they are still under-exploited from the officinal and industrial point of view. They are also a potential source for the extraction of bioactive compounds with possible pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications (Rodrigues et al., 2013;Cornara et al., 2016), being generally rich in secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, amines, flavonoids, coumarins, condensed tannins and saponins (Burlando et al., 2010; Pastorino et al., 2017) To increase their use also in the industrial sector and, consequently, their commercial value, the study has focused on the identification of
bioactive compounds with possible interest in human health. In this study a multidisciplinary approach was carried out, investigating several aspects such as antioxidant, antilipidemic and cytotoxicity strength, content of total phenols and flavonoids. In this PhD Project we studied four species of legumes: Melilotus officinalis (L.) Pall., Lespedeza capitata Michx., Sulla coronaria (L.) Medik and Glycyrrhiza glabra L. Thanks to a collaboration with Egadi S.r.l., Favignana, Italy, we also concentrated our study to another kind of plant, belonging to the family of Potamogetonaceae: Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile. The species has shown bioactivities suitable for the development of cosmetic and dermatologic applications. In summary, the results of these investigations show new opportunities to exploit the plants studied plants in bioindustry processes, possibly increasing their commercial value.

Tigliane diterpenoids: isolation, chemistry and preliminary biosynthetic studies of a medicinal relevant class of natural compounds
Creators: name: GAETA, Simone
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale Amedeo Avogadro
Year: 2020

description: Tiglianes are a class of polycyclic diterpenoids, densely functionalized, isolated from Euphorbiaceae and Thymelaceae family. Despite their extensive use in biomedical research, and their potent and unique biological profile, phorboids are still largely unexplored in terms of chemistry, biosynthetic origin, and mechanisms of activity. This thesis aims at providing a contribution en route to the clarification of these issues. Part la describes an expeditious isolation method of the parent diterpene polyol phorbol from croton oil (Croton tiglium L. oil), and of the basic diterpenoid skeleton of tigilanol tiglate from left-overs from the isolation of this compound from the seeds of Fontainea picrosperma C.T.White. Part Ib presents SAR studies aimed at the exploration of the chemical space of tiglianes, and an exploration of their chemical reactivity. Part II presents a biosynthetic investigation on the origin of the tigliane skeleton, inspired by the Jakupovic proposal of non lathyrane derivation of these compounds. The synthesis of labelled precursors is presented as well as a series of feeding experiments on Fontainea picrosperma.
Targeted molecular characterization of adult midline and circumscribed gliomas for the identification of new potential targets for personalized therapy
Creators: name: TRISOLINI, ELENA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale Amedeo Avogadro
Year: 2020

description: Diffuse midline gliomas (MLG) are primary brain tumours arising from thalamus, hypothalamus, brainstem, cerebellum or spinal cord, mainly occurring in children. In adults, less than 10% of diffuse gliomas arises in midline structures and recent works suggested that this subset of tumours
may present with phenotypic and molecular characteristics differing from both pediatric MLG and adult supratentorial gliomas.
Circumscribed gliomas (CG) are low-grade tumours but may progress to anaplasia. They have lower genetic complexity than diffuse gliomas and could be better candidate for targeted therapies, when complete surgical resection is not feasible.
Unravelling the genomic landscape of MLG and CG will better define the prognostic value of molecular biomarkers and identify new therapeutic strategies that could improve patient care. Adult patients with diagnosis of MLG and CG were retrospectively identified from �Maggiore della
Carit�� Hospital and GH Piti�-Salp�tri�re (Paris). Mutation analysis was performed by Sanger sequencing of the major hot-spots: IDH1, IDH2, H3F3A, HIST1H3B, FGFR1, TERT promoter. FISH analyses of NTRK1-2-3 rearrangements were performed by break-apart probes on tissue
microarray of MLG cases. We identified 116 (French) and 47 (Italian) patients. The two cohorts showed a lower percentage of
H3F3A mutations (20% vs 33%), the mutation was not associated to a worse prognosis. FGFR1 mutations were identified in 18% of cases and are restricted to MLG. NTRKs analysis in the Italian cohort showed NTRK1 translocations in 15% of cases.
We reported a high rate of FGFR1 mutations in optic nerve pilocytic astrocitomas and the presence of alternative BRAF activating mutations (Thr599_Val600insThr and Val600_Lys601>Glu). Our finding of frequent and potentially targetable FGFR1 and BRAF mutations and NTRK1
translocations have important therapeutical implications in the current context of clinical trials, and further reinforces the need for molecular analyses.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TEACHERS’ AND STUDENTS’ PERCEPTIONS OF TEACHERS’ NEED-SUPPORTIVE PRACTICES
Creators: name: Ahn, Inok
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Educational psychology

description: There is little research that examines differences in perceptions of need-supportive practices between teachers and students. In the current study, three research purposes were (1) to examine variabilities of teacher and student absolute or relative rating gaps in need-supportive practices, (2) to investigate the relations between absolute or relative rating gaps of teacher and student perceived need-supportive practices and student outcomes, and (3) moderating effects on the relations between teacher-student perceptions gaps of need-supportive practices and student outcomes. Participants were 581 5th and 6th students and their 29 teachers in Seoul, South Korea. Students completed questionnaires about teacher need-supportive practices, motivation, basic psychological needs (perceived autonomy, competence, and relatedness), and autonomous motivation. Teachers also answered questionnaires about their own need-supportive practices and autonomous motivation. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests were used to examine the variabilities of teacher and student rating gaps of need-supportive practices. Also, hierarchical linear modeling was employed to test the hypothesized models. Student sex and their beginning-of-year achievement were controlled for throughout the analyses. The results showed that absolute rating gap for structure was significantly smaller than the absolute rating gaps for both autonomy support and involvement. Also, the relative rating gap for autonomy support was significantly smaller than the relative rating gap for both structure and involvement, but the relative rating gap of involvement was significantly larger than the relative rating gaps for autonomy support and structure. Regarding relations between rating gaps and student outcomes, a smaller teacher-student absolute rating gap for involvement was related to greater student autonomous motivation, and perceived competence and relatedness. Additionally, students with overestimating teachers tended to report lower student autonomous motivation, and low need satisfaction than students with underestimating teachers. Teacher autonomous motivation and teacher experience functioned as moderators. The findings revealed the importance of reducing perception gaps between teachers and students about need-supportive practices. In particular, the findings showed the significance of perception gaps about involvement for student outcomes. In addition, the current study indicates the importance of examining both absolute and relative rating gaps between teachers and students.

Attraverso l?impiego di Wordsmith Tools, sono state tratte precise informazioni in merito a distribuzione e frequenza delle occorrenze registrate. L?articolo presenta dunque dati statistici concernenti a) le occorrenze dei pronomi relativi; b) la loro funzione sintattica (cio� la loro gerarchia di accessibilit�); e c) la posizione delle subordinate relative in relazione alle proposizioni principali (ovvero il principio del peso finale). Da ultimo, questi dati sono confrontati con quelli tratti da un corpus di prosa scientifica del 20� secolo, cos� da mettere in evidenza differenze e analogie.
Language change in orthography: a study about the Kristni saga manuscripts (AM 371 4to, AM 105 fol)
Creators: name: VITTI, FRANCESCO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2007

description: L?articolo tratta di un problema ancora in parte inesplorato nella ricerca sulla storia della lingua islandese: il passaggio dall?antico islandese all?islandese moderno. Questo passaggio va ovviamente visto come un continuum, ma � largamente attestato che tra il 1300 e il 1650 una serie di cambiamenti hanno profondamente trasformato, soprattutto dal punto vista fonetico e fonologico, la lingua islandese.
Per contribuire a questa ricerca ho scelto come approccio concreto l?analisi di un testo di una saga, la Kristni saga. Essaesiste in due esemplari di manoscritto: nell�Hauksb�k (AM 371 4to) risalente al primo decennio del 1300 e in una copia eseguita dal reverendo J�n Erlendsson a met� del 1600 e contenuta nel manoscritto AM 105 fol. L?originale antico islandese e la sua copia secentesca si trovano ai due estremi del suddetto periodo di grandi trasformazioni. Questo � un presupposto fondamentale nel confronto/analisi di originale e copia della Kristni saga. Difatti la peculiarit� di J�n Erlendsson come copista risiede nell?essere considerato dalla ricerca filologica contemporanea come il primo che in epoca moderna abbia tentato di riprodurre in modo fedele l?ortografia antico islandese. Questo nonostante non possedesse probabilmente alcuna educazione e alcuna tecnica di tipo filologico e la pronuncia del suo islandese secentesco si discostasse notevolmente da quella di inizio Trecento.
Alla luce di questi fatti l�obbiettivo del mio lavoro � verificare se J�n Erlendsson sia riuscito a riprodurre fedelmente l?ortografia dell?originale. Per ottenere i miei risultati ho confrontato i grafemi dei tratti fonologici che hanno subito trasformazioni nel periodo 1350-1600 su due livelli: tra l?originale e la copia della Kristni saga e tra questi e altri manoscritti che attestano i cambiamenti fonogici nel periodo 1350-1600.
I risultati ottenuti forniscono una risposta negativa alla mia domanda, ovvero la copia secentesca mostra ampliamente l?influenza della pronuncia contemporanea. Un?eccezione � la sorprendente precisione nella trascrizione dei grafemi /y/, /�/ nonostante la loro pronuncia delabializzata in islandese moderno. � difficile capire il motivo di questa eccezione, essa potrebbe attribuibirsi una forma dialettale labializzata sopravvissuta fino a met� del 1600 e con cui J�n Erlendsson potrebbe essere entrato in contatto.
Un altro risultato importante emerso durante l?analisi � la datazione di AM 105 fol. Confrontando l?uso degli accenti quantitativi con le copie realizzate da J�n Erlendsson di un altro testo medievale, l?�slendingab�k (AM 113 a e AM 113 b, 1651), si pu� presumere che il manoscritto AM 105 fol sia stato copiato prima di AM 113 b, 1651, distinguendosi quest?ultimo per un uso degli accenti quantitativi pi� vicino all?originale.
SPATIAL ECOLOGY OF SNAPPING TURTLE (CHELYDRA SERPENTINA) WITHIN AN URBAN WETLAND COMPLEX
Creators: name: Kellogg, Zachary Robert
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Ecology not elsewhere classified

description: The conversion of natural habitat to urban areas has lasting impacts on wildlife and biodiversity. Known effects to urban wildlife include direct mortality while crossing roads, reduced species diversity, and habitat fragmentation and degradation. Among wildlife occupying urban areas, turtle populations can be particularly impacted in anthropogenic landscapes. Snapping Turtle (Chelydra serpentina) is one of the most common species found within urban wetlands, but populations are beginning to show declines in northern portions of their geographic range. The preservation and management of this species is aided by knowledge related to its spatial ecology. I investigated C. serpentina home range, movement, habitat use, and habitat selection in a midwestern USA urban wetland complex during two active seasons (May-August 2019 and 2020) using radiotelemetry. Home range sizes and movement did not differ between sex or sample year except the mean movement of males decreased from 2019 to 2020. No differences in mean monthly movement were found between sexes but mean monthly movement did differ between month and year. Habitat use was skewed during the active season and did not differ between sex or year, but there were positive habitat associations between forested wetlands and modal centers of activity (MCA). Habitat selection was tested at two spatial scales by comparing random points to home ranges and turtle locations using Euclidean Distance Analysis. Turtles appeared to select home ranges from available habitat site-wide but did not select habitat within home ranges. Home range selection included semi-permanent open water, trail, road/barrier, permanent open water, scrub-shrub, ditches, shoreline, and vegetated ponds, while upland forest, field and agriculture habitat were avoided. Home ranges appear to be constrained by available habitat and movement differences between years may be due to anthropogenic change in water levels. The use of space seems to be more affected by wetland size and connectivity than proximity to barriers, which suggests that management practices that protect turtles from accessing roads and railways will benefit populations. Additionally, habitat selection and association indicate that ditches are utilized as corridors between wetland areas. When feasible, increasing the connectivity of large wetlands containing many habitat types should have positive impacts on the persistence of populations in human dominated landscapes.
Small-scale biomass power generation
Creators: name: CARRARA, Samuel
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2010

description: In recent years considerable attention has been paid to power generation from biomass, especially in small scale plants. Several plant configurations have been proposed and investigated, but so far, definitely preferable technological solutions have not been found yet. Moreover, a comparison of their performances is often difficult, due to the fact that working assumptions are not always consistent.
The aim of the present work is to provide a full overview on small scale technologies regarding biomass exploitation (particularly woody one) for power generation, in order to define the most interesting solutions from a thermodynamic and economic point of view. Existing configurations or those which are expected to be potentially available on the market in the near future have been considered. Three plant sizes have been focused: 100 kWel, 1 MWel and 5 MWel. Internal combustion engines (ICE), (micro) gas turbines (mGT/GT), both internally and externally fired, and organic Rankine cycles (ORC)
have been taken into account as power plants, while direct combustion and gasification have been considered for biomass. Simulations show that the externally fired gas turbine is the most promising technology at small scale (100 kWel), if a high temperature heat exchanger is available. A gasifier coupled with an internal combustion engine is instead preferable at larger scales (1 MWel and 5 MWel).
An also proposed sensitivity analysis concerning moisture effects shows that biomass drying with flue gas is generally disadvantageous, even if sometimes (e.g. in gasifiers) necessary, because of the dryer cost.
USE OF POLIPHOSPHANES IN THE ASSEMBLY OF DISCRETE OR POLYMERIC COORDINATION COMPOUNDS

description: Although phosphanes show useful features for the coordination chemistry, their use as pure structural building blocks, to join metal centres in larger aggregates, has not been yet well explored.
In this work, synthesis and characterization of discrete and polymeric coordination compounds are presented.
As metal centres both monometallic and cluster compounds have been used, whereas as ligands we have used poliphosphanes both commercially available and synthesised in our laboratories.
For simplicity we can classify them in: rigid diphosphanes, flexible diphosphanes and rigid poliphosphanes.

On top of that, it is necessary to study how LoRa/LoRaWAN performs in indoor environments as one of the fast-growing IoT network mechanisms. However, few studies are found to work on LoRa and LoRaWAN performance evaluation in indoor scenarios. This study focuses on a real-world experiment to understand how LoRa radio signals behave according to its physical layer parameter settings.Data is collected through real-world experiments in a campus environment. The experiments for data sample collection were conducted in September 2021 in the Purdue Campus area in West Lafayette, Indiana, United States. LoRa transceivers with the SX1276 module are deployed operating in the 915MHz frequency band on both LoRa RX and TX end nodes in this study. The data transmitted between LoRa transmitter and LoRa receiver is packet-sized (17 bytes) messages. For data collection, LoRa module is configured with 36 PHY parameter settings – three spreading factors (7, 9, 11), three signal bandwidths (125kHz, 250kHz, 500kHz), and four coding rates (4/5, 4/6, 4/7, 4/8). Test devices are the Dragino LoRa shields equipped with SX1276 radio modules in 915MHz frequency bands. The experiment is conducted at three different distances – 10m, 20m, and 40m – between LoRa TX node and LoRa RX node in indoor office buildings in Purdue University West Lafayette Campus, US. The RSSI and SNR are measured to characterize the link performance of Lora. The Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) are two Physical level indicators available on wireless radio chips. In addition to them, the LoRa communication reliability is calculated based on the Received Packet Ratio (RPR) out of transmitted packets with different PHY settings at each distance.

description: The genetics of most common single-gene neurological disorders has been dissected in the last twenty years. However, the aetiology of several rare Mendelian neurological conditions is still unknown, with significant implications for diagnosis, genetic counselling and therapy.
So far the identification of genes for these rare conditions have been constrained by methodological issues, such as the shortage of informative families for linkage analysis, the lack of very dense maps of polymorphic markers and the availability of efficient and low-cost platforms for genotyping and sequencing.
Recently, the high-throughput sequencing of the coding DNA (i.e. exome) has been successfully applied to identify causative mutations by comparing the genome-wide profile of non-synonymous variants among unrelated patients affected by the same disease.
Thus, exome sequencing may not be readily applicable to patients affected by rare unclassified conditions who cannot be grouped into genetically homogenous pools.
To dissect the heterogenous genetic etiology of rare neurological phenotypes, we decided to combine exome sequencing with homozygosity mapping, a robust approach to localize disease genes involved in autosomal recessive (AR) Mendelian disorders in discrete genomic regions.
We focused our attention on 7 phenotypic heterogeneity families that they have not been genetically diagnosed of the our Pediatric Neurological Unit.
We analyzed variants with standard bioinformatic pipeline and databases of populations as ExAC, GnomaAD, and in-house database (200 normal controls).
We confirmed the selected variants by Sanger Sequencing in probands and parents.
We excluded the negative variants by Sanger sequencing in affected subjects and parents.
In more cases, we demonstrated the pathogenetic role for these variants with functional studies as WesternBlot, staning of tissue and immunofluorescence of the patients? cells. We generated the Zebrafish model to evaluate the pathogenetic role of some variants.
We highlighted the importance of the bioinformatic analysis, which selected the effective genetic causes of pathology in these families. We identified different genes, adding important genotype-phenotype correlations to literature data.
In conclusion, this study highlighted a powerful approach for clarify the genetic basis of rare neurological recessive diseases. Furthermore, this genome-wide approach allowed to highlight new genotype-phenotype correlations and expanded the clinical phenotypic spectrum in specificgenetic conditions.

Characterization of the role of macrophages in the progression of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

description: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming the most common form of liver injury
worldwide in relation to the diffusion of overweight and obesity. In about 15-20% of patients with
NAFLD the disease evolves to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), characterized by
hepatocellular damage and lobular inflammation that often evolves to hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis.
In my doctoral project, I have investigated some aspect of the inflammation associated to NASH in
order to get more insides on the mechanisms responsible for the progression to fibrosis. As
experimental model, we used C57BL/6 and Balb/c mice in which NASH was induced by feeding a
methionine and choline deficient (MCD) diet up to eight weeks. In these animals, we have observed
that the evolution of NASH is associated with a progressive increase in hepatic macrophages that
changes their function and morphology. In fact, in the early phase of the disease the onset of
inflammation is characterized by a prominent M1 activation that account for inter-strain difference
in the susceptibility to NASH between C57BL/6 and Balb/c mice. With the progression of the
disease toward fibrosis macrophages show a decline in M1 responses in relation with an increased
production by the macrophages them-selves of the anti-inflammatory protein Annexin A1 (AnxA1).
Using AnxA1-null mice and recombinant AnxA1 it has been possible to determine that AnxA1 acts
on macrophages by down-modulating M1 polarization through stimulation of IL-10 production.
Furthermore, AnxA1 has also a functional role in controlling fibrogenesis by the regulation of
galectin-3 production. Although the advanced phases of experimental NASH are characterized by a
decline in macrophage M1 responses, this does not parallel with a lowering of hepatic
inflammation. Experiments performed with NF-kB1-null mice have shown that this phenomenon
can be ascribed to an enhanced liver recruitment of osteopontin-producing NKT cells. Indeed, also
in wild type animals the number of liver NKT cells changes during the evolution of NASH
declining in the early phases of the disease and expanding again in the advanced phases in relation
to an increased hepatic production of IL-15, a cytokine involved in controlling T-cell survival.
Collectively, these results indicate that NASH progression involves multiple interactions between
macrophages and NKT cells and they represent a starting point to investigate whether genetic
differences in NF-kB1 and Annexin A1 may account for the inter-individual variability in the
evolution of NASH as well as to test AnnexinA1 analogues as possible novel treatments to control
NASH evolution.

Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2019

description: This doctoral thesis concerns the issues, in terms of occupational health and safety, both related to smartworking, regulated by Law n. 81/2017, and to the specific rules set out by the D.P.R. n. 177/2011 in the field of prevention for activities which are considered particularly complex and risky for workers, such as outsourced works to be carried out in confined spaces or within places suspected of having been polluted. The firs analysis has been developed by examining the health and safety regulations laid down by Article 3, paragraph 10, of Legislative Decree n. 81/2008, applicable to teleworking and other forms of remote working, also in light of the case-law which outlined the (broad) notion of ?workplace?. On the other hand, for the survey concerning confined spaces, the candidate adopted a practical methodology made possible by the activities he carried out as a member of a Committee for the certification of contracts. Indeed, for the purposes to ensure both the lawfulness of the employment or outsourcing contracts and the proper assessment and management of the occupational risks, the D.P.R. n. 177/2011 stipulates that the contracting and subcontracting agreements regarding works to be carried out in in confined spaces or within places suspected of having been polluted ? as well as the non-standard forms of employment contracts (fixed term contracts, job on call, posting of workers, temporary agency work, seasonal work, etc.) related to the workers who are going to perform works in this specific sector ? must be certified by the Committees for the certification of contracts, in application of the procedure outlined by the Legislative Decree n. 276/2003.
