  • Exploring the clinical features of minimally verbal autistic children

    Open AccessSilvia Guerrera, Elisa Fucà et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2025

    This study highlights the importance of accurately characterizing minimally verbal autistic children and adolescents to facilitate the identification of specific and individualized interventions based on individual functioning profiles

  • The challenge of a late diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder

    Open AccessSara Passarini, Silvia Guerrera et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2025

    The case of L. expands the knowledge on the phenotype of Autistic females and exemplifies how delayed diagnosis may exacerbate functioning differences and increase the camouflage phenomenon. Additionally, it underscores the importance of improving tailored evaluation, combined treatment plans, with both cognitive-behavioral therapy and drugs, and monitoring the evolving patterns of Autistic manifestations and associated psychiatric co-occurrences

  • Nonverbal Skills Evolution in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder One Year Post-Diagnosis

    Open AccessMaria Grazia Logrieco, Emma Annechini et al.ARTICLEChildren2024

    Background : Gestural production, a crucial aspect of nonverbal communication, plays a key role in the development of verbal and socio-communicative skills.

    The diagnostic difficulty of this case reflects a clinical complexity in which it is not easy to distinguish between neurodevelopmental and psychiatric aspects. Clinical cases such as that of P. emphasize the theme of the neurodevelopment continuum model in which neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disturbances can be considered within a pattern of pathological continuity

Indeed, a well-known feature of electricity prices concerns its high volatility. For this reason, operators use power futures to hedge against unexpected risk deriving from adverse fluctuations of spot prices within the planned delivering period. Indeed, futures contracts permit to fix the price of electri…

  • Performance estimation of a wind farm with a dependence structure between electricity price and wind speed

    Open AccessLaura Casula, Guglielmo D’Amico et al.ARTICLEWorld Economy2020

    This paper aimed to estimate the income generated by a wind turbine over a given time interval. The income depends on two main variables: the wind speed that determines the produced energy and electricity price. Both wind speed and electricity price evolve randomly in time and are correlated. To consider this dependency, we applied a vector autoregressive process (VAR) that links both variables. An application was performed using real data from a…
