Individual voices, collective health
Although existing research identifies different profiles of vaccine-hesitant individuals, most studies focus on isolated psychological constructs, neglecting their interplay in shaping vaccination attitudes. Using data from an online survey of a representative sample of Italian adults, we examined vaccination attitudes through a person-centered methodology. We selected personal values, attitudes, and beliefs for their potential relevance to vacci…
When Do the Stakes Get Higher? Examining Factors Associated with At-Risk or Problem Gambling in a Large Sample of Italian Adult Recent Gamblers
Most gambling research focuses on problem gambling, often neglecting milder but more prevalent harmful patterns, whose prevention could prove highly cost-effective. This study analyzed factors associated with at-risk or problem gambling (Problem Gambling Severity Index ≥ 1) among 1060 recent gamblers in Italy (2022–2023). At-risk or problem gambling was reported by 17% of participants and decreased with age and education. It was more frequent amo…

The Effect of Covid-19 Pandemic on Overall and Cause-Specific Mortality in Pavia, Northern Italy
Excess mortality estimates are considered relevant indicators of direct and indirect pandemic effects on the population. Scant data have been published on cause-specific excess mortality. Using individual-level administrative data covering the Pavia province of Italian northern Lombardy region, we provided all-cause and cause-specific raw (RMR) and age-standardized (ASMR) mortality rates in 2021 and 2015-2019, the rate ratio, and 95% confidence i…
Gender Differences in Covid-19 Lockdown Impact on Mental Health of Undergraduate Students
Background: Prolonged university closures and social distancing-imposed measures due to the COVID-19 pandemic obliged students to at-home learning with online lectures and educational programs promoting potential social isolation, loneliness, hopelessness, and episodes of clinical decompensation. Methods: A web-based cross-sectional survey was carried out in a university institute in Milan, Northern Italy, to assess the COVID-19 lockdown impact o…
Older Adults’ Access to Care during the Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic disproportionally affected older people in terms of clinical outcomes and care provision. We aimed to investigate older adults' changes in access to care during the pandemic and their determinants. We used data from a cross-sectional study (LOST in Lombardia) conducted in autumn 2020 on a representative sample of 4400 older adults from the most populated region in Italy. Lifestyles, mental health, and access to healthcare se…
Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic on Total and Cause-Specific Mortality in Pavia, Northern Italy
The COVID-19 pandemic had an unfavorable impact on overall mortality in Italy, with the strongest consequences in northern Italy. Scant data are available on cause-specific mortality. This study aims at investigating the impact of the pandemic on the overall and cause-specific mortality in one province in northern Italy, Pavia. We linked individual-level administrative data (i.e., death certification and population data) from the Health Protectio…
Peptic ulcer as mediator of the association between risk of gastric cancer and socioeconomic status, tobacco smoking, alcohol drinking and salt intake
BACKGROUND: Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and gastric cancer (GC) are more prevalent in individuals with low socioeconomic status (SES) and share several risk factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of PUD in the association between established risk factors and GC. METHODS: We conducted a pooled analysis of 12 studies from the Stomach Cancer Pooling Project Consortium, including a total of 4877 GC cases and 11 808 contro…
Cohort Analysis of Epithelial Cancer Mortality Male-to-Female Sex Ratios in the European Union, USA, and Japan
Mortality sex ratio patterns are partly explained by the differences in exposure to known and avoidable risk factors. These are mostly tobacco, alcohol, and obesity/overweight, as well as other lifestyle-related factors
