The Night Effect of Anger
These findings suggest that the analysis of some psychological factors, such as anger, could be necessary to better understand differences in nocturnal BP alterations. Trait anger and suppression of anger may contribute to the description and classification of patients who exhibit a maladaptive dipping phenomenon. However, modifiable (i.e., cigarette consumption) and unmodifiable (i.e., age) risk factors appear to mediate this relationship. Altho…
The Night Side of Blood Pressure
Introduction: The dipping phenomenon is a physiological drop in blood pressure (around 10-20%) during sleep and represents an event related to the circadian blood pressure trend. This phenomenon, in some cases, is characterized by some alterations that can be expressed by an increase (extreme dipping), a decrease (non-dipping), or a reverse (i.e., higher blood pressure during sleep compared to awake state; reverse-dipping) physiological decline o…

Inclusion in Mozambique
Illiteracy is one of the main obstacles preventing a country from overcoming poverty. The Mozambican government’s recent efforts aim to guarantee education for all its citizens, including those with disabilities, in order to reach both cognitive and social skills which maximize their growth and development. This paper offers a complex analysis of a case study dealing with an intervention based on a cooperative learning approach for the inclusion …

For the research, we decided to consult Italian newspaper articles produced between 1985 and 1990 a…
