NGF, Brain and Behavioral Plasticity by Alessandra Berry, Erika Bindocci, Enrico Alleva

“…Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) was initially studied for its role as a key player in the regulation of peripheral innervations. However, the successive finding of its release in the bloodstream of male mice following aggressive encounters and its presence in the central nervous system led to the hypothesis that variations in brain NGF levels, caused by psychosocial stressor, and the related alterations in emotionality, could be functional to the development of proper strategies to cope with the stressor itself and thus to survive. …”

Contribution of Neuroinflammation to the Pathogenesis of Cancer Cachexia by Alessio Molfino, Gianfranco Gioia, Filippo Rossi Fanelli, Alessandro Laviano

“…In particular, functional changes are associated with increased hypothalamic concentration of proinflammatory cytokines, which suggests that neuroinflammation may represent the adaptive response of the brain to peripheral challenges, including tumor growth. Within this conceptual framework, the vagus nerve appears to be involved in conveying alert signals to the hypothalamus, whereas hypothalamic serotonin appears to contribute to triggering catabolic signals.…”

The number of nonunimodular roots of a reciprocal polynomial by Stankov, Dragan

“…We introduce a sequence $P_{d}$ of monic reciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients having the central coefficients fixed as well as the peripheral coefficients. We prove that the ratio of the number of nonunimodular roots of $P_{d}$ to its degree $d$ has a limit $L$ when $d$ tends to infinity. …”

O debate da Escola de Frankfurt e suas contribuições para uma reflexão crítica da sociedade contemporânea by Rodrigo Marques Leistner

“…In this perspective, it considers a theoretical division established inside the school itself, whose expression occurs since the epistemological differences existing between the central nucleus of the thinking of the school and a host of peripheral authors. The works produced by this “marginal” nucleus, as well as its posterior refinement in the work of Habermas, present theoretical alternatives of relational features which oppose to the structural and skeptic vision existent in the works of Horkheimer, Adorno and Marcuse. …”

O impacto da covid-19 nas periferias: uma análise espacial a partir dos casos e óbitos no Rio de Janeiro by Heitor Soares Farias, Gustavo Mota de Sousa, André Santos da Rocha, Leandro Dias de Oliveira

“…Presenting a conceptual debate on social vulnerability and dialoguing with the field of public health, maps and tables were produced, based on official case and death data from the State of Rio de Janeiro Health Department, by municipality, and estimated population in 2020, from IBGE Cidades, to calculate the Prevalence, Mortality and Lethality Rates, to seek an analytical understanding of the diffusion of covid-19 in the peripheral territories of Rio de Janeiro. Despite the obstacles to underreporting, the results made it possible to identify a similar spatial behavior between groups of municipalities, highlighting the importance of social vulnerability as one of the most relevant elements of the spread of covid-19.…”

New insights into strange-quark hadronization measuring multiple (multi-)strange hadron production in small collision systems with ALICE by Pucillo Sara

“…Among the most important results from the Run-1 and Run-2 of the LHC is the observation of an enhanced production of (multi-)strange to non-strange hadron yields, gradually rising from low-multiplicity to highmultiplicity pp and p–Pb collisions, reaching values close to those measured in peripheral Pb–Pb collisions [1]. The observed behaviour cannot be quantitatively reproduced by any of the available QCD-inspired MC generators. …”
