Material flow analysis and carbon footprint of water-packaging waste management

Packaged drinking water represents one of the fastest growing commodities on a global scale, and several alternatives to plastic have been proposed, such as glass, cardboard or aluminum. The research has a twofold goal: (i) first, it calculates the amount of water-packaging waste generated in Italy in 2020, distinguishing among PET, glass, aluminum and cardboard materials, and it applies the material flow analysis through the STAN 2.7.101 software; (ii) second, it evaluates the carbon footpr...

Analysis of Export Competitiveness of Agri-Food Products at the EU-27 Level through the Perspective of Technical Complexity

This paper aims to identify the export competitiveness of agri-food products at the level of the European Union Member States, considering indicators/elements belonging to technical innovation (technical complexity) as well as qualitative elements. The main research problem is to examine the differences in the technical complexity of agri-food exports (EXPY) between EU Member States. Through detailed analysis of product categories and Member States’ performance, we have identified significant...

Optimization of Cobalt-Chromium (Co-Cr) Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering in Endocrine, Metabolic and Immune Disorders

Approximately 50% of the adult global population is projected to suffer from some form of metabolic disease by 2050, including metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus. At the same time, this trend indicates a potential increase in the number of patients who will be in need of implant-supported reconstructions of specific bone regions subjected to inflammatory states. Moreover, physiological conditions associated with dysmetabolic subjects have been suggested to contribute to the severity of ...

Potential Therapeutic Targets to Modulate the Endocannabinoid System in Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common neurodegenerative disease (NDD), is characterized by chronic neuronal cell death through progressive loss of cognitive function. Amyloid beta (A beta) deposition, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and hyperphosphorylated tau proteins are considered the hallmarks of AD pathology. Different therapeutic approaches approved by the Food and Drug Administration can only target a single altered pathway instead of various mechanisms that are involved in AD...

Investigation of the presence of Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) in ancient adult skulls: analyzing data from prehistoric and historical samples through a systematic review and meta-analysis

ObjectivesHistorically, the prevalence of caries has undergone significant changes, particularly increasing with the industrialization of sugar consumption. When examining ancient populations, lower caries rates are discovered, attributed in part to dietary factors. These populations consumed abrasive foods, leading to occlusal wear and reduced non-axial occlusal forces, potentially influencing Non-Carious Cervical Lesions (NCCLs). Although some attribute NCCLs to abfraction, the mechanism re...
