Excess Mortality in Italy During the Covid-19 Pandemic
COVID-19 dramatically influenced mortality worldwide, in Italy as well, the first European country to experience the Sars-Cov2 epidemic. Many countries reported a two-wave pattern of COVID-19 deaths; however, studies comparing the two waves are limited. The objective of the study was to compare all-cause excess mortality between the two waves that occurred during the year 2020 using nationwide data. All-cause excess mortalities were estimated usi…
Parental Infertility
Background: Infertility-related stress is often greatest for heterosexual couples who pursue more extensive fertility treatments as In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) than other couples. Treatments can affect the development of the parent-child relationship of couples who then decided to adopt a child. Aims: This study was performed to demonstrate that the couples who underwent In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) before adopting a child, could have more diffi…
Socioeconomic patterns and Covid-19 outcomes before, during and after the lockdown in Italy (2020)
The objective was to investigate the association between deprivation and COVID-19 outcomes in Italy during pre-lockdown, lockdown and post-lockdown periods using a retrospective cohort study with 38,534,169 citizens and 222,875 COVID-19 cases. Multilevel negative binomial regression models, adjusting for age, sex, population-density and region of residence were conducted to evaluate the association between area-level deprivation and COVID-19 inci…
HIV rapid testing in the framework of an STI prevention project on a cohort of vulnerable Italians and immigrants
INTRODUCTION: Uptake of HIV tests is a challenging issue in vulnerable populations including immigrants, normally using standard diagnostic tools. Objectives of this study were to evaluate the acceptability of HIV rapid test; estimate the percentage of newly HIV diagnoses and evaluate knowledge, attitudes and perception (KAP) about HIV/AIDS and other STIs in a specific set of immigrants and vulnerable population in Rome (Italy). METHODS: All immi…
Environmental correlates of crimean-congo haemorrhagic fever incidence in Bulgaria
We identified environmental correlates of CCHF incidence in Bulgaria that may support the prospective implementation of public health interventions
Mortality at ages 50–59 and deprivation at early and late stages of the life course in Wales
BACKGROUND: Most previous studies have examined the association between mortality and deprivation at only one point in time. However, risk accumulates over the life course. The design of the study was ecological. Its aims were to explain inequalities in total and cause-specific mortality between geographical areas in relation to the lifestyle and health behaviours of the resident populations and the area levels of deprivation in 1981 and in 1921-…
