Executive Function Assessment Through Wireless EEG and Gait Monitoring During Cognitive-Motor Dual TasksNARA Subscribed
Purpose The simultaneous performance of tasks relying on the same cognitive processes might lead to gait disturbances. The study aims to explore the distinct involvement of working memory and inhibition during gait within a dual-task using 3D motion analysis and wireless electroencephalography (EEG), addressing limitations of previous research on the removal of gait-related artifacts from EEG signals and the EEG results’ gener...
Vitamin B12 (VitB12) plays a crucial role in neural homeostasis, and a high dose is preferred as treatment to support recovery from neural impairments. However, a significant knowledge gap remains regarding its dose-dependent effects, particularly in its influence on cellular recovery following neural damage. To address this, we utilized retinoic acid-differentiated SH-SY5Y cells, as an in vitro neural model, where we induced...

Unlocking the Potential of Marine Sidestreams in the Blue Economy: Lessons Learned from the EcoeFISHent Project on Fish CollagenNARA Subscribed
This review provides a general overview of collagen structure, biosynthesis, and biological properties, with a particular focus on marine collagen sources, especially fisheries discards and by-catches. Additionally, well-documented applications of collagen are presented, with special emphasis not only on its final use but also on the processes enabling sustainable and safe recovery from materials that would otherwise go to was...
Impact of SARS-CoV-2 Infection on Essential Tremor: A Retrospective Clinical and Kinematic AnalysisNARA Subscribed
In the past few years, SARS-CoV-2 infection has substantially impacted public health. Alongside respiratory symptoms, some individuals have reported new neurological manifestations or a worsening of pre-existing neurological conditions. We previously documented two cases of essential tremor (ET) who experienced a deterioration in tremor following SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, the effects of SARS-CoV-2 on ET remain largely une...
CACNA1G Causes Dominantly Inherited Myoclonus-Ataxia with Intellectual Disability: A Case ReportNARA Subscribed
Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are characterized by substantial phenotypic variability. Among them, SCA42 is a rare non-expansion entity presenting with slowly progressive cerebellar syndrome but whose clinical spectrum may be also wider. A 53-year-old male presented with progressive myoclonus-ataxia and intellectual disability. Genetic screening revealed a novel c.3835G > A (p. Asp1279Asn) variant in the CACNA1G gene. SCA42 i...
Generation of deposit-derived pyroclastic density currents by repeated crater rim failures at Stromboli Volcano (Italy)NARA Subscribed
The gravitational instability of hot material deposited during eruptive activity can lead to the formation of glowing avalanches, commonly known as deposit-derived pyroclastic density currents (PDCs). These currents can travel hundreds of metres to several kilometres from the source at exceptionally high temperatures, posing a catastrophic hazard to areas surrounding steep-slope volcanoes. The occurrence of deposit-derived PDC...
Insight into the Relationship Between Motor and Cognitive Symptoms in Essential TremorNARA Subscribed
Essential tremor (ET) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by bilateral upper limbs action tremor and, possibly, neurological signs of uncertain significance, including voluntary movement abnormalities and cognitive disturbances, i.e., the so-called ‘soft’ signs configuring the ET-plus definition. While motor and cognitive disturbances often coexist in ET, their interrelationship remains largely unexplored. Here we aim to...
Fetal growth at term and placental oxidative stress in a tissue micro-array model: a histological and immunohistochemistry studyNARA Subscribed
This study examines 8-hydroxyguanine (8-oxo-Gua) staining in placental tissue samples based on fetal size at birth as well as its relationships with placental histology and other pregnancy variables. This prospective cohort study included women > 18 years with a singleton pregnancy, a live fetus, fluency in Italian, and delivery at term. A total of 165 pregnancies were included in the study. The nuclear syncytiotrophoblast 8-o...
In the last decade, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of scientific publications on the ecology of the golden jackal Canis aureus , whereas information on its reproductive biology is still scanty, and the basic reproductive parameters of the species are not yet fully understood. In 2021, we began a research project in North-Eastern Italy, where the golden jackal is strictly protected under the National Law, to...
Sentinel-1 P-SBAS data for the update of the state of activity of national landslide inventory mapsNARA Subscribed
The redaction of landslide inventory is a fundamental task for risk management and territorial planning activities. The availability of synthetic aperture radar imagery, especially after the launch of Sentinel-1 mission, enables to systematically update landslide inventories covering wide areas in a reduced time frame and at different scales of analysis. In this work, SAR data processed from the fully automatic P-SBAS pipeline...
