Epidemiological updates and economic losses due to Taenia hydatigena in sheep from Sardinia, Italy
The aim of this study was to investigate the epidemiology and transmission of Taenia hydatigena in sheep and dogs from Sardinia and the economic estimation of losses due to this metacestodosis in lambs. A total o...

Morphological and molecular characterization of bovine coenurosis in Sardinia, Italy
Coenurosis is a central nervous system disease of wild and domestic ruminants caused by Coenurus cerebralis, a bladder worm stage of Taenia multiceps). Even in Sardinia island, this metacestode seems to be widesp...

Sintering mechanisms of nascent semi-crystalline polymer powders by high velocity compaction
A new technique, the High Velocity Compaction (HVC) allows the processing of nascent semicrystalline powders via sintering. It implies several controlled energy impacts on a powder-filled die. The die is heate...

Serum erythropoietin levels in thalassemia intermedia
Serum concentrations of erythropoietin (EPO) were determined by immunoassay in 45 patients with thalassemia intermedia (TI). The mean serum level of EPO was significantly higher in the thalassemic patients tha...

A frequent Aγ-persistence of fetal hemoglobin in northern Sardinia: its molecular basis and hematologic phenotype in heterozygotes and compound heterozygotes with β-thalassemia
A survey of hemoglobinopathies in northern Sardinia revealed a high frequency (0.3%) of carriers of a hematologic condition characterized by increased expression of fetal hemoglobin during adult life (heredita...

Numerical dating of Precambrian–Cambrian boundary
Although the base of the Phanerozoic is an important date in the history of life and of the Earth's crust, few conclusive data have been available to estimate the numerical age of this boundary. Accurate and r...
