Design is an inherently fluid process, that intrinsically has to remain open to be shaped by contexts and constraints and that, once applied in its many variations, extrinsically can influence the flows of matter, life, information, and energy that make up urban space.However, to design the city means to intervene with an irrepressible environment
The rich fossil record of Crocodyliformes shows a much greater diversity in the past than today in terms of morphological disparity and occupation of niches.We conducted topology-based analyses seeking diversification shifts along the evolutionary history of the group.Our results support previous studies, indicating an initial radiation of the grou
Abstract Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), such as SNHG6, have been identified as crucial regulators in the progression of various cancers, including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Although the role of SNHG6 in ESCC is not completely understood, our findings demonstrated that SNHG6 expression is upregulated in ESCC tissues compared to adja
Abstract Background Functional independence and safe mobility, especially in older people, mostly rely on the ability to perform dual tasks, particularly during activities with variable- and fixed-priority attention.The aim of this study is to compare the dual-task training with progression from variable- to fixed-priority instructions versus dual-
Abstract Selecting appropriate defensive behaviours for threats approaching the space surrounding the body (peripersonal space, PPS) is crucial for survival.The extent of defensive Power Supply PPS is measured by recording the hand-blink reflex (HBR), a subcortical defensive response.Higher-order cortical areas involved in PPS representation exert
