Banking Development and the Economic Impact of Natural Disasters: From Short to Long Term Effects

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how financial development and local banking structures shape the economic resilience of communities in the aftermath of natural disasters. Focusing on Italian municipalities hit by earthquakes between 2008 and 2022, we explore the role of banking presence, particularly cooperative banks, in supporting recovery.

Shifts in cuticular hydrocarbon profiles of bees and wasps primarily reflect temperature variations rather than the amount of sealed ground surfaces in an urban landscape

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island Effect (UHI) can potentially subject insects to heat and desiccation stress and likely induce shifts in their cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profile. We expected that warmer urbanized areas favour longer chain length of hydrocarbons as well as higher abundance of n‐alkanes in three Hymenoptera species. We found that temperature, more

Interpretation of the EU Nature Restoration Law: from pieces of a puzzle to a complete picture

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
The Regulation 2024/1991 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 June 2024, aiming at “the long‐term and sustained recovery of biodiverse and resilient ecosystems across the Member States' land and sea areas through the restoration of degraded ecosystems” is absolutely fundamental for Europe and for the rest of the world. Until 2027, and in

Changes in motor unit conduction velocity after unilateral lower‐limb suspension and active recovery are correlated with muscle ion channel gene expression

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The effects of muscle disuse on the propagation of action potentials along motor unit (MU) muscle fibres, a key process for effective muscle activation and force generation, remain poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in action potential propagation and to identify biological factors influencing these changes ...

Electrophysiological characterization of pre‐adolescents born with intrauterine growth restriction: insights from clinical and computational data

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Depolarization and repolarization duration analysis was conducted in preadolescent groups with IUGR and controls using a 12‐lead ECG. Principal component analysis was applied over the 12‐lead ECGs to generate spatially transformed leads better suited for robust ECG fiducial points detection.
