Pressure vs. alloying controlled metal to insulator transition in NiS{2-x}Se{x} studied by infrared spectroscopy (2008)

Perucchi, A., Marini, C., Valentini, M., Postorino, P., Sopracase, R., Dore, P., ...

The metal to insulator transition (MIT) in the charge transfer NiS{2-x}Se{x} compound has been investigated through infrared reflectivity. Measurements were performed vs applied pressure in pure NiS2...

Pressure dependence of the single particle excitation in the charge-density-wave CeTe$_3$ system (2008)

Lavagnini, M., Sacchetti, A., Marini, C., Valentini, M., Sopracase, R., Perucchi, A., ...

We present new data on the pressure dependence at 300 K of the optical reflectivity of CeTe$_3$, which undergoes a charge-density-wave (CDW) phase transition well above room temperature. The...

The optical phonon spectrum of SmFeAsO (2008)

Marini, C., Mirri, C., Profeta, G., Lupi, S., Di Castro, D., Sopracase, R., ...

We measured the Raman and the Infrared phonon spectrum of SmFeAsO polycrystalline samples. We also performed Density Functional Theory calculations within the pseudopotential approximation to obtain...

Evidence of a pressure-induced metallization process in monoclinic VO$_2$ (2006)

Arcangeletti, E., Baldassarre, L., Di Castro, D., Lupi, S., Malavasi, L., Marini, C., ...

Raman and combined trasmission and reflectivity mid infrared measurements have been carried out on monoclinic VO$_2$ at room temperature over the 0-19 GPa and 0-14 GPa pressure ranges, respectively....

Childhood absence epilepsy and febrile seizures: a family with a GABA(A) receptor mutation (2003)

Marini, C, Harkin, LA, Wallace, RH, Mulley, JC, Scheffer, IE, Berkovic, SF

Although several genes for idiopathic epilepsies from families with simple Mendelian inheritance have been found, genes for the common idiopathic generalized epilepsies, where inheritance is complex,...

Altered kinetics and benzodiazepine sensitivity of a GABA(A) receptor subunit mutation [gamma(2)(R43Q)] found in human epilepsy (2002)

Bowser, DN, Wagner, DA, Czajkowski, C, Cromer, BA, Parker, MW, Wallace, RH, ...

The gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor mediates fast inhibitory synaptic transmission in the CNS. Dysfunction of the GABA(A) receptor would be expected to cause neuronal...

Mutant GABA(A) receptor gamma 2-subunit in childhood absence epilepsy and febrile seizures (2001)

Wallace, RH, Marini, C, Petrou, S, Harkin, LA, Bowser, DN, Panchal, RG, ...

Epilepsies affect at least 2% of the population at some time in life, and many forms have genetic determinants(1,2). We have found a mutation in a gene encoding a GABA, receptor subunit in a large...

Genetic architecture of idiopathic generalized epilepsy: Clinical genetic analysis of 55 multiplex families

Marini, C, Scheffer, IE, Crossland, KM, Grinton, BE, Phillips, FL, McMahon, JM, ...

Purpose: In families with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE), multiple IGE subsyndromes may occur. We performed a genetic study of IGE families to clarify the genetic relation of the IGE...

OBJECTIVE—To estimate the prevalence of multiple sclerosis in the L'Aquila district, central Italy.
METHODS—All available case sources were screened. Definite and probable cases of multiple...

Idiopathic generalised epilepsy of adult onset: clinical syndromes and genetics

Marini, C, King, M, Archer, J, Newton, M, Berkovic, S

Objective: To study the clinical features and genetics of idiopathic generalised epilepsy (IGE) beginning in adult life.

Epileptic drop attacks in partial epilepsy: clinical features, evolution, and prognosis

Tinuper, P., Cerullo, A., Marini, C., Avoni, P., Rosati, A., Riva, R., ...

OBJECTIVES—Sudden falls have been described in patients with partial epilepsy. However, no study has detailed the clinical, EEG, and evolutive features of partial epilepsies with drop...
