Patterns of Gambling and Other Risky Behaviors among Adolescents. A Latent Class Analysis Study on the 2021/22 Health Behaviors in School Children Survey Data
Research on adolescent gambling often examines this behavior in isolation, overlooking evidence of comorbidity between alcohol/drug use disorders and problem gambling. This study aimed to address this gap by examining patterns of risky behaviors (i.e., substance use and gambling) among a representative sample of 7,795 adolescents aged 15 and 17 living in the Lombardy region of Italy. Latent Class Analysis was used to identify subgroups of individ…
The impact of Covid-19 hospitalizations on nursing home admissions
Background: To obtain the rate of admission to nursing homes (NHs) and to evaluate clinical characteristics and mortality rates of patients admitted to NHs after hospitalizations for COVID-19, compared to non-COVID-19 acutely hospitalized patients. Methods: We analyzed administrative data from Lombardy, a Northen Italian region, in individuals aged ≥50 years who were hospitalized and discharged alive in 2018 for acute conditions or, between Febru…
How a laboratory-based antimicrobial resistance (AMR) regional surveillance system can address large-scale and local AMR epidemiology
Antimicrobial resistance is a significant threat to public health, with Italy experiencing substantial challenges in terms of AMR rate, surveillance system and activities to combat AMR. In response, the MICRO-BIO project was initiated as part of the National Plan to Combat Antibiotic Resistance by Region Lombardy health department. It was launched in 2018 with the aim of creating a surveillance tool by integrating data on bacterial isolates from …
Population-level benefits of increasing influenza vaccination uptake among Italian older adults
Background: The impact of seasonal influenza vaccination (SIV) on mortality is still controversial; some studies have claimed that increasing vaccination coverage rates is beneficial, while others have found no significant association. This study aimed to construct a granular longitudinal dataset of local VCRs and assess their effect on pneumonia- and influenza-related (P&I) mortality among Italian adults aged ≥ 65 years. Methods: NUTS-3 (nomencl…
Web-based surveillance of respiratory infection outbreaks
Introduction: Large-scale diagnostic testing has been proven insufficient to promptly monitor the spread of the Coronavirus disease 2019. Electronic resources may provide better insight into the early detection of epidemics. We aimed to retrospectively explore whether the Google search volume has been useful in detecting Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus outbreaks early compared to the swab-based surveillance system. Methods: The Goog…
Early Detection of Sars-CoV-2 Epidemic Waves
We evaluated the performance of the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) model for comparing two families of predictors (i.e., structured and unstructured data from visits to the emergency department (ED)) for the early detection of SARS-CoV-2 epidemic waves. The study included data from 1,282,100 ED visits between 1 January 2011 and 9 December 2021 to a local health unit in Lombardy, Italy. A regression model with an autoregressive integ…
Assessment of the Costs Related to West Nile Virus Monitoring in Lombardy Region (Italy) between 2014 and 2018
In Italy, the West Nile Virus surveillance plan considers a multidisciplinary approach to identify the presence of the virus in the environment (entomological, ornithological, and equine surveillance) and to determine the risk of infections through potentially infected donors (blood and organ donors). The costs associated with the surveillance program for the Lombardy Region between 2014 and 2018 were estimated. The costs of the program were comp…
Decreasing hospital burden of Covid-19 during the first wave in Regione Lombardia
The hospital burden, in terms of both risks of poor outcomes and lengths of stay in hospital, has been demonstrated to have decreased over the months of the first wave, perhaps reflecting improved treatment and management of COVID-19 cases, as well as reduced burden as the first wave waned. The quantified burden allows for planning of hospital beds needed for current and future waves of SARS-CoV-2 i
Baseline Characteristics and Outcomes of 1591 Patients Infected With Sars-CoV-2 Admitted to ICUs of the Lombardy Region, Italy
Importance: In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 [SARS-CoV-2]) emerged in China and has spread globally, creating a pandemic. Information about the clinical characteristics of infected patients who require intensive care is limited. Objective: To characterize patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) requiring treatment in an intensive care unit (ICU) in the Lombardy region of Italy. Desig…
Development and first application of an audit system for screening programs based on the PRECEDE-PROCEED model
The software application helps standardize criteria for planning interventions to improve screening programs and facilitates the implementation of the audit cycle
