Impaired cognitive and physical ability with no increase in depression prevalence was found in a sample of subjects more than 90 years of age free of major age-related disease. Muscular mass and DHEAS levels seem to play a role in maintaining physical independence. In turn, physical independence, as well as social and cultural factors, strongly affect the compliance of long-lived subjects with psychocognitive tests currently used in the clinical evaluation of younger old people, suggesting that these instruments are not reliable for screening for cognitive impairment and depression in the oldest old subjects.
LE PARTI COMMUNISTE ITALIEN ET L'ADMINISTRATION LOCALE A BOLOGNE (1945-1977), par SEBASTIANO PORCU
Les communistes bolonais mettent en œuvre depuis la Libération des politiques administratives qu'ils ont tenté d'adapter aux conditions socio-économiques locales. Durant cette longue période de pouvoir ininterrompu la structure sociale de la ville s'est assez profondément transformée. Quel rapport peut-on établir entre la modification de cette structure sociale et l'assentiment donné par les Bolonais au PCI en évaluant cet assentiment selon deux critères : les suffrages électoraux et les adhésions au Parti ?
