Between 1966 and 2000, Italian art historians traveled across the historical regions of Turkey in order to explore the architecture surviving from the Middle Ages (400?1400 CE). These trips resulted in a substantial number of photographs, later collected in the Center for Documentation of Byzantine Art History of Sapienza (CDSAB). Curated by art historians Livia Bevilacqua and Giovanni Gasbarri, the exhibition offers a look into the holdings of CDSAB for the first time.0?Picturing a Lost Empire: An Italian Lens on Byzantine Art in Anatolia, 1960?2000? draws extensively on the photographs and other archival materials of the CDSAB, focusing specifically on four historical regions: eastern Turkey; Lycia; Mesopotamia and Tur ?Abdin; Cilicia and Isauria. These outstanding materials, gathered over the course of almost fifty years, attest to the story of monuments and artifacts that, in many cases, have since been radically transformed or have even vanished. The exhibition invites visitors to follow this unique route from Rome to the East, to rediscover the remains of a lost empire, and to step into the scenic landscape that surrounds them.00Exhibition: ANAMED, Koç University Research Center for Anatolian Civilization, Istanbul, Turkey (01.06. - 31.12.2018).

The small bowel is a complex organ involved in a variety of functions; in particular, it plays a key role in processes of digestion and absorption of nutrients, electrolytes, water, bile salts and drugs. The term malabsorption syndrome summarizes a complex of symptoms resulting from maldigestion and / or malabsorption, resulting when the extension of the disease exceeds the ability of intestine compensation. Signs and symptoms characterizing this syndrome may be manifold as the dysfunction can involve only specific substrates (selective malabsorption), or it can be generalized (global malabsorption). Regarding the etiology of the disorder, several conditions have been recognized as being responsible; however, a definitive classification is not yet available due to the complexity of the absorption process, the involvement of different organs and structures, and the coexistence of different mechanisms in some diseases causing malabsorption. This publication has been written for basic and clinical researchers as well as general physicians, illuminating some aspects of the large area of intestinal malabsorption.
