Did the pandemic change lifestyle behaviours in Italy? An interrupted time series analysis on the four main NCDs behavioural risk factors from 2008 to 2023
Results found in this article showed at the end of studied period the achievement of a plateau for current smokers, a worsening in the high-risk alcohol consumption, in fruit and vegetable intakes and a reduction in physical inactivity. Understanding shifts in these lifestyle indicators is crucial for the proper design of interventions aimed at reducing the burden of NCDs
Health literacy and breast cancer screening adherence
Mammographic screening can reduce breast cancer (BC) mortality in women. In Italy, although attendance rates increased recently, they are still far from the recommended levels internationally. Inadequate health literacy (HL) may be a reason for poor awareness and/or knowledge about the importance of completing cancer screening. This study examined the relationship between HL, other sociodemographic determinants, and their influence on participati…
Responsible Research and Innovation Associated With Risk Communication and Public Engagement on Health Emergency Preparedness at the Local Level
Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) associated with public health emergency preparedness (PHEP) and response pose major challenges to the scientific community and civil society because a multistakeholder and interdisciplinary methodology is needed to foster public engagement. In 2017, within “Action plan on Science in Society related issues in Epidemics and Total pandemics”, twenty-three initiatives in eleven cities—Athens, Brussels, Buchar…
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 …
Data from the Passi d’Argento Surveillance System on Difficulties Met by Older Adults in Accessing Health Services in Italy as Major Risk Factor to Health Outcomes
(1) Age-friendly health systems ensure access to quality healthcare services to all people, especially older adults. (2) We used data on elderly population collected from 2016 to 2019 by the Italian ongoing surveillance system PASSI d'Argento to analyze the prevalence and associations between accessing health services and modifiable risk factors included in the 25 × 25 strategy for the burden of noncommunicable diseases with health outcomes. (3) …
What Is the Willingness to Receive Vaccination Against Covid-19 Among the Elderly in Italy? Data From the Passi d'Argento Surveillance System
Introduction: Italy was one of the earliest countries to experience a severe COVID-19 epidemic and vaccinating the elderly, who constitute 23% of the population and have experienced the highest mortality rates, is a top priority. Estimating prevalences and understanding risk factors for COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy or refusal are important for development of targeted interventions. Methods: We used data from a specially developed COVID-19 module of…
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
Obesity in Italian children
In 2007, the Italian Ministry of Health promoted a national school-based nutritional surveillance system, called OKkio alla SALUTE, coordinated by the National Institute of Health and part of the WHO European Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative. Information on dietary habits and physical activity were collected for children aged 8-9 years. After the first data collection in 2008, nationwide communication activities were planned

P1-293 Involving local community
Introduction When monitoring population health-related behaviours it is important to assess the effectiveness of delivering health related information to specific target groups such that any need for improved communication can be identified. The Italian Behavioural Risk Factors Surveillance System Passi is conducted through Local Health Units (LHUs) personnel interviewing a random sample of 18–69 year olds monthly. PinC, the Programme of Informat…
