Pallet racking systems, made of thin-walled cold formed steel profiles, are commonly used to store valuable goods and products in the logistics industry. In service conditions, longitudinal (down-aisle) stability of the racks is provided by the flexural stiffness of the demountable beam-upright column connections and base joints. Rack designers usually prefer to avoid bracings for a full accessibility of shelves from both aisles. However, under seismic conditions, typical rack connections cannot ...

Mutations in the pancreatic ATP-sensitive K(+) channel (K(ATP) channel) cause permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM) in humans. All of the K(ATP) channel mutations examined result in decreased ATP inhibition, which in turn is predicted to suppress insulin secretion. Here we describe a patient with severe PNDM, which includes developmental delay and epilepsy, in addition to neonatal diabetes (developmental delay, epilepsy, and neonatal diabetes [DEND]), due to a G334D mutation in the Kir6.2 subunit ...

The peculiar pattern of linguistic and cognitive deficits in early Alzheimer’s disease (DAT), whereby memory limitations and failure in semantics prevail over deficits in syntax, makes an interesting contrast with linguistic deficits in classic aphasia categories. The present study compared errors in picture naming of different types of Italian compounds, both in aphasia and in DAT. As in previous studies, in aphasia the knowledge of the compound status seems to be retained vis-à-vis the inability ...

The mechanisms of visuospatial attention are mediated by two distinct fronto-parietal networks: a bilateral dorsal network (DAN), involved in the voluntary orientation of visuospatial attention, and a ventral network (VAN), lateralized to the right hemisphere, involved in the reorienting of attention to unexpected, but relevant, stimuli. The present study consisted of two aims: 1) to characterize the spatio-temporal dynamics of attention and 2) to examine the predictive interactions between and within ...

Flight height is a fundamental parameter for correcting the gamma signal produced by terrestrial radionuclides measured during airborne surveys. The frontiers of radiometric measurements with UAV require light and accurate altimeters flying at some 10 m from the ground. We equipped an aircraft with seven altimetric sensors (three low-cost GNSS receivers, one inertial measurement unit, one radar altimeter and two barometers) and analyzed ~3 h of data collected over the sea in the (35-2194) m altitude ...

An event-related potential (ERP) technique was used to investigate the way in which noun–noun compounds are processed during a lexical decision task with Italian speakers. Reaction times and error rates were higher for compounds than for noncompounds. ERP data showed a more negative peak in the left anterior negativity (LAN) component for compounds. These results are compatible with a dual-route model that posits not only whole-word access for compounds but also an activation of decomposed representations ...

The present study addressed the question of whether count and mass nouns are differentially processed in the brain. In two different ERP (Event-Related Potentials) tasks we explored the semantic and syntactic levels of such distinction. Mass and count nouns typically differ in concreteness, hence the effect of this important variable was factorially examined in each task. Thus the stimuli presented were: count concrete, count abstract, mass concrete or mass abstract. The first experiment (concrete/ ...

In preterm (PT) infants, regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) disturbances may predispose to abnormal brain maturation even without overt brain injury. Therefore, it would be informative to determine the spatial distribution of grey matter (GM) CBF in PT and full-term (FT) newborns at term-equivalent age (TEA) and to assess the relationship between the features of the CBF pattern and both prematurity and prematurity-related brain lesions. In this prospective study, we obtained measures of CBF in 66 PT ( ...

The hippocampus and amygdala are the first brain regions to show early signs of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathology. AD is preceded by a prodromal stage known as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), a crucial crossroad in the clinical progression of the disease. The topographical development of AD has been the subject of extended investigation. However, it is still largely unknown how the transition from MCI to AD affects specific hippocampal and amygdala subregions. The present study is set to answer ...

During a precipitation a transient increase of gamma activity is generated by 214Pb and 214Bi, daughters of atmospheric 222Rn, which are collected by rain droplets and brought to the ground. A continuous monitoring of this gamma radiation can be an efficient alternative to a 222Rn direct measurement in clouds and allows for estimating rain-induced variations in environmental gamma radiation. This work presents the results of a seven months proximal gamma-ray spectroscopy experiment, specifically ...
