X-Y aneuploidy rate in sperm of two "minor" breeds of cattle (Bos taurus) by using dual color fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) The present study reports on the frequency of X-Y aneuploidy in the sperm population of two minor cattle breeds reared in Italy, namely Modicana and Age...
In MZ twins we identified two IGF2/H19 regions where the intra-couple variations significantly increased after the age of 60 years. The analysis of twins' individual life histories suggests that the within twin pairs difference is likely the result of the aging process itself, as sharing a ...
These indicators are useful for assessing the health of the population in coastal and non-coastal areas, at two different spatial levels. Italian municipalities and regions within the European Union. The analysis of territorial cohesion is enhanced through the utilisation of geostatistical tools, ...
We built our corpus (i.e., textual dataset) on the basis of all the regional COVID-19 regulations collected by the Italian Conference of Regions and Autonomous Provinces between 21 February and 14 June.Footnote 6 The entire set of documents consists of all regulations issued by the Italian ...
This improvement had started in the North-West regions, the cradle of Italian industrialization, in the 1880s, while real wages in other macro-areas (North-East, Centre, South and islands) remained stagnant until the early 20th century, rising sizably only in the pre-war years. The gap ...
the exception of the broad north Italian Plain at the foot of the Alps, the peninsula is crosscut through much of its length by the Apennine mountain chain. The obstacles created by the highlands, valleys, and gorges found in the mountain regions fostered strong cultural and linguistic ...
The rest of the population hails from diverse other countries and Regions such as North Africa, Germany, Albania and a variety of other countries in Europe and further abroad. However, it is the countries that border Italy that have had the most influence on the culture that today is ...
We leveraged the remarkable genetic and geographical diversity of the Italian goat populations and performed landscape genomics analysis to disentangle the relationship between genotype and environment, finding 64 SNPs intercepting genomic regions linked to growth, circadian rhythm, fertility, and inflammatory...
Means ± SD of olfactory identification (OI) in the ten Italian regions. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple pairwise comparisons. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ****p < 0.0001 versus Sardinia (the region with the higher OI score);#p < 0.05,###p < 0.00...
to investigate the reasons of the case fatality rate (CFR) differences across Italian 20 regions and 107 provinces, using a multivariate OLS regression approach; and ii) second, to build a “taxonomy” of provinces with similar mortality risk of COVID-19, by using the Ward's hierarchical aggl...
