Pro-Environmental Behaviors
The awareness of citizens concerning the health risks caused by environmental pollution is growing, but studies on determinants of pro-environmental behaviors have rarely examined health-related aspects. In this study, we investigated these determinants using data from a large survey among Italian university students (15 Universities: 4778 filled questionnaires). Besides the health-related aspects, represented by environmental health risk percept…

The project was subsequently extended to ten Italian Regions. This led to the creation of the VaccinarSì Network, whose websites ar…
Deaths in Sars-Cov-2 Positive Patients in Italy
This study aims to underline the clinical characteristics of patients who died after testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection in one region of Italian and to evaluate the influence of underlying health conditions on the fatal outcome. A matched case-control study was designed by analyzing the data regarding positive subjects observed up to April 21, 2020. The case fatality rate was 7.9%, with a higher proportion of deaths in men than women. The …

The present study was conducted in the aftermath of a tuberculosis (TB) outbreak that occurred in 2019 in a primary school in Italy. The aim was to evaluate the impact of communication measures implemented by…

Population Distrust of Drinking Water Safety. Community Outrage Analysis, Prediction and Management
The aim of the work is to evaluate the effectiveness of the risk communication strategies in cases of unsafe drinking water supply in Sardinia, the Italian context with the highest population distrust in drinking water safety. During the period 2010−2015, the ordinances published on the institutional websites were analyzed, and the population risk perception was evaluated by applying, for the first time in public health threats, the "OUTRAGE Pred…
Indoor Radon Exposure in Italian Schools
Radon levels should be routinely assessed where individuals live or work. Schools are susceptible targets, because of childhood stay and the long daily stay of occupants. Low-cost interventions, such as implementation of natural air ventilation and school maintenance, can reduce radon levels, limiting individual exposure
In the Digital Era, Is Community Outrage a Feasible Proxy Indicator of Emotional Epidemiology? The Case of Meningococcal Disease in Sardinia, Italy

A Case of Listeria monocytogenes ST-219 Meningo-Encephalitis
Listeriosis is a foodborne disease characterized by high hospitalization and fatality rates, especially in vulnerable groups including elderly subjects, pregnant women, etc. We report on the first case of Listeria monocytogenes ST-219 meningo-encephalitis in a woman aged 83 years. An epidemiological and molecular investigation was performed to detect the source of infection and the virulence factors associated with L. monocytogenes invasiveness i…
