Awareness and knowledge regarding female genital schistosomiasis among European healthcare workers
BACKGROUND: Adequate knowledge and awareness regarding diseases are essential for appropriate, high-quality healthcare. Female Genital Schistosomiasis (FGS) is a non-sexually transmitted gynaecological disease that is caused by the presence of Schistosoma haematobium eggs in the female genital tract and the resulting immune response that causes tissue damage. It is estimated to affect 56 million women, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where he…
Navigating healthcare pathways
Viral hepatitis is a leading cause of mortality and a global public health challenge that, until recently, has been largely neglected as a health priority. This study describes the prevalence of viral hepatitis B and C in asylum seekers and refugees who participated in screening across three cities in Northern Italy. The analysis highlights significant pitfalls in linkage and retention in care, as well as factors associated with continuing or dis…
Chronic Hepatitis C Cascade of Care in Prisoners—Is There Still Some Work to Do? Analysis of Two Large Penitentiaries in Northern Italy
Penitentiaries have a higher burden of communicable diseases compared to the general population. Prisoners should be tested for hepatitis C virus (HCV) and have direct access to treatment. We analysed the HCV cascade of care in two penitentiaries in Brescia, Northern Italy. At admission, prisoners are offered a voluntary screening for HCV, while patients with known infections are tested with an HCVRNA measurement. We performed an observational re…
Drivers of Covid-19 vaccine uptake among rural populations in Madagascar
This study shows that actual COVID-19 vaccine uptake is influenced by a different set of factors than willingness to get vaccinated. Taking this difference in drivers into account can inform more tailored vaccination strategies to increase worldwide coverage
Schistosomiasis elimination in Madagascar
Madagascar is one of the countries with the highest burden of schistosomiasis worldwide. The release from the WHO of the new 2021–2030 neglected tropical disease (NTD) roadmap alongside with the schistosomiasis guidelines sets the ambitious goal of eliminating schistosomiasis as a public health problem worldwide. In Madagascar, implementation barriers exist. This paper has the objective of identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and thre…
Arte, técnica y oficio en metal. Herrería artística en el patrimonio arquitectónico de Montevideo, 1780-1950
Este artículo sintetiza algunos aspectos del proyecto “Hierro y bronce. Criterios para la valoración y conservación de la herrería artística en el patrimonio arquitectónico del Uruguay”[i], cuyo objetivo es establecer los atributos patrimoniales de los elementos ornamentales metálicos asociados a fachadas del patrimonio arquitectónico nacional y contribuir a su difusión, puesta en valor y conservación. A lo largo de la investigación se abordan lo…
Microbiological Surveillance of Endoscopes in a Southern Italian Transplantation Hospital
Endoscopes are medical instruments that are used routinely in health structures. Due to their invasive nature and contact with many patients, they may cause hospital-acquired infections if not disinfected correctly. To ensure a high-level disinfection procedure or reprocessing, since the methods currently adopted in our institute are adequate, we evaluated retrospectively the presence of microorganisms in our endoscopes after reprocessing. Microb…
