The impact of nirsevimab prophylaxis on RSV hospitalizations
Background: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is the leading cause of hospitalizations in infants. The approval of nirsevimab, a long-acting monoclonal antibody, has extended the potential for RSV prophylaxis to all infants. This study assesses the cost-benefit of various Nirsevimab prophylaxis strategies for infants during their first RSV season in preventing RSV-associated hospitalization in the Tuscany region, Italy. Methods: = 21,017) experie…
Predictors of well-being, future anxiety, and multiple recurrent health complaints among university students during the Covid-19 pandemic
The pandemic deeply changed young adults’ life. Lockdown period and the social restrictions dramatically affected university students’ mental health. The aim of our cross-sectional study was to describe psychological well-being, future anxiety (FA), and health complaints (HCs) in a sample of 3,001 students of the University of Florence in the middle of the first two pandemic waves. We assessed the role of subjective social status, chronic disease…
Digital Health Literacy and Information-Seeking in the Era of Covid-19
Gender appears to be a strong predictor of online health information-seeking behaviour (OHISB), which is related to Digital Health Literacy (DHL). Gender differences in OHISB have been studied in different countries with different results, but no studies have investigated gender-specific OHISB among University students during the COVID-19 pandemic. We sought to investigate any gender differences in OHISB in the period between the first and second…
The impact of outsourcing operating theatre support services on hospital performances
Hospitals in most of the countries in transition face the challenge to raise efficiency in a rapidly evolving health sector. In this framework, the Albanian Ministry of Health has outsourced the sterilization and operating theatre support(SOTS) services of all the public hospitals. The aim of this article is to evaluate the impact of the outsourcing of SOTS services on the productivity of the surgical services. A case study analysis was conducted…
Health Literacy, Socioeconomic Status and Vaccination Uptake
Background: Health Literacy (HL) has been recently hypothesized to affect the relationship between socio-economic status (SES) and health conditions. However, to date no study has yet assessed the potential contribution of HL in the pathway through which SES affects influenza vaccination status. We aim to examine the relationships among HL, SES factors, and influenza vaccination uptake in Tuscan (Italy) residents belonging to different high-risk …
Determinants of Actual Covid-19 Vaccine Uptake in a Cohort of Essential Workers
Identifying determinants of COVID-19 vaccine uptake is essential for developing effective strategies for promoting vaccination. This longitudinal study aimed to explore predictors of actual COVID-19 vaccine uptake in workers involved in essential services during the first lockdown period in the Prato Province (Italy). All essential workers were invited and surveyed before COVID-19 vaccine approval (96.5% participation rate). Participants were fol…
Trends in Adolescent Health Risk Behaviors and Wellbeing
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the trends of prevalence of health risk behaviors (HRBs) and health conditions over a 10 year period (2008–2018) in a representative sample of adolescents of Tuscany Region, Italy. Methods: This was a repeated cross-sectional (four survey waves) study. The prevalence of 17 HRBs and health conditions were analyzed by age, sex, and socioeconomic status (SES). Results: A total of 21,943 students were…
Predictors of Influenza Vaccination Uptake and the Role of Health Literacy among Health and Social Care Volunteers in the Province of Prato (Italy)
Our findings revealed a very low influenza vaccination uptake among volunteers, suggesting the need to increase awareness in this at-risk group by means of a better communication approach
The Nutrition Literacy Assessment Instrument for Italian Subjects, NLit-IT
The aim of this study was to test validity and reliability of the adapted version of the Nutrition Literacy Assessment Instrument (NLit) for Italian people (NLit-IT). An observational cross-sectional study was conducted, involving a convenience sample of adults ( n = 74). To explore the validity of the tool, we considered both diet quality as an outcome of NL, and health literacy (HL) as a construct that presents similarities and differences with…
Profiles of Risky Driving Behaviors in Adolescent Drivers
(1) Background: Research on patterns of risky driving behaviors (RDBs) in adolescents is scarce. This study aims to identify distinctive patterns of RDBs and to explore their characteristics in a representative sample of adolescents. (2) Methods: this is a cross-sectional study of a representative sample of Tuscany Region students aged 14-19 years ( n = 2162). The prevalence of 11 RDBs was assessed and a cluster analysis was conducted to identify…
The Role of Health Literacy in Covid-19 Preventive Behaviors and Infection Risk Perception
HL may play a key role in maintaining a high adherence to infection prevention behaviors and may be a factor to take into account in the implementation of public health interventions in pandemic times
Health Literacy, Socio-Economic Determinants, and Healthy Behaviours
Our findings showed that an inadequate level of HL could negatively affect physical activity and diet, independently from the other sociodemographic conditions, confirming the role of HL as a relevant social determinant of health
