Preliminary results of a multidimensional approach to screen for frailty in community-dwelling older adults of eight Italian regions
Background: Frailty syndrome in older adults is an age-related decline in many physiological systems, that results in a reduced response to minor stressors, and leading to an increased risk of falls, hospitalization, disability and death. Frailty can be prevented, reversed or mitigated by early screening for frailty risk in community-dwelling older adults, allowing for preventive interventions on clinical and social determinants. Objectives: The …
Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) of the Short Functional Geriatric Evaluation (SFGE) to Assess the Multidimensionality of Frailty in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
The Short Functional Geriatric Evaluation (SFGE) is a multidimensional and short questionnaire to assess biopsychosocial frailty in older adults. This paper aims to clarify the latent factors of SFGE. Data were collected from January 2016 to December 2020 from 8800 community-dwelling older adults participating in the "Long Live the Elderly!" program. Social operators administered the questionnaire through phone calls. Exploratory factor analysis …
Digital Health Service for Identification of Frailty Risk Factors in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
This article reports the study protocol of a nationwide multicentric study in seven Italian regions aimed at assessing the effectiveness of a digitally supported approach for the early screening of frailty risk factors in community-dwelling older adults. SUNFRAIL+ is a prospective observational cohort study aimed at carrying out a multidimensional assessment of community-dwelling older adults through an IT platform, which allows to connect the it…
An IT-supported multidimensional approach for frailty screening in community-dwelling older adults
Introduction: Frailty in older adults is characterised by a dynamic state of vulnerability with weakness and reduced physiological reserve leading to an increased risk of worsening in quality of life, falls, institutionalisation, disability and death [1]. The COVID-19 pandemic is an example of how an infectious hit can determine an increased mortality especially among older and vulnerable population subgroups [2], as well as a deterioration in th…
Predictors of Emergency Room Access and Not Urgent Emergency Room Access by the Frail Older Adults
Background: Emergency rooms (ERs) overcrowded by older adults have been the focus of public health policies during the recent COVID-19 outbreak too. This phenomenon needed a change in the nursing care of older frail people. Health policies have tried to mitigate the frequent use of ER by implementing community care to meet the care demands of older adults. The present study aimed to investigate the predictors of emergency room access (ERA) and no…
The Effectiveness of Intervening on Social Isolation to Reduce Mortality during Heat Waves in Aged Population
Reducing social isolation could limit the impact of heat waves on the mortality of the elderly population

Can Integrated Care Help in Meeting the Challenges Posed on Our Health Care Systems by Covid-19? Some Preliminary Lessons Learned from the European Vigour Project
The COVID-19 pandemic puts health and care systems under pressure globally. This current paper highlights challenges arising in the care for older and vulnerable populations in this context and reflects upon possible perspectives for different systems making use of nested integrated care approaches adapted during the work of the EU-funded project VIGOUR ("Evidence based Guidance to Scale-up Integrated Care in Europe", funded by the European Union…
Creating a Culture of Health in Planning and Implementing Innovative Strategies Addressing Non-communicable Chronic Diseases
Ongoing demographic changes are challenging health systems worldwide especially in relation to increasing longevity and the resultant rise of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). To meet these challenges, a paradigm shift to a more proactive approach to health promotion, and maintenance is needed. This new paradigm focuses on creating and implementing an ecological model of Culture of Health. The conceptualization of the Culture of Health is defined…
Social Interventions to Prevent Heat-Related Mortality in the Older Adult in Rome, Italy
This study focuses on the impact of a program aimed at reducing heat-related mortality among older adults residing in central Rome by counteracting social isolation. The mortality of citizens over the age of 75 living in three Urban Areas (UAs) located in central Rome is compared with that of the residents of four adjacent UAs during the summer of 2015. The data, broken down by UA, were provided by the Statistical Office of the Municipality of Ro…
Nutritional Rehabilitation of HIV-Exposed Infants in Malawi
Infant malnutrition in sub-Saharan Africa is a public health priority and a challenge in high HIV prevalence areas. The Drug Resources Enhancement Against AIDS and Malnutrition program, with multiple medical centers in Sub-Saharan Africa, developed an innovative intervention for the surveillance and control of malnutrition. In a pilot initiative, 36 HIV-exposed children were evaluated at baseline upon presentation for malnutrition and at six mont…
The impact of socio-economic factors, mental health and functional status on survival in a sample of Aids patients
The aim of the paper is to examine the influence of socio-economic conditions, mental health and functional status on survival of a sample of people with AIDS. It is a longitudinal prospective study carried out in five infectious disease wards in Rome and Naples, Italy. Patients enrolled (total 168) are all diagnosed as having AIDS in 1992. The Functional Multidimensional Evaluation Questionnaire for people infected with HIV was administered to a…
Care requirements of people with ARC/Aids in Rome
In Italy, care for people with AIDS (PWA) is centred on hospital services. However, other services are beginning to develop, both in the form of residential facilities and of home care. It seems, therefore, important to define the type of non-hospital services that should be supplied on the basis of AIDS patients' real needs. The aim of this paper is to contribute to the definition of care requirements by administration to 92 persons with ARC/AID…
Graph Algorithms and Applications 2
The mixture of data in real life exhibits structure or connection property in nature.Typical data include biological data, communication network data, image data, etc. Graphs provide a natural way to represent and analyze these types of data and their relationships.For instance, more recently, graphs have found new applications in solving problems for emerging research fields such as social network analysis, design of robust computer network topo…
