Candida auris is an emerging fungus that represents a serious health threat globally. In Italy, the first case was detected in July 2019. Then, one reported to Ministry of Health (MoH) on January 2020. Nine months later, huge number cases were northern Italy. Overall, 361 17 healthcare facilities between 2019 and December 2022 Liguria, Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna, Veneto regions, including 146 (40.4%) deaths. The majority (91.8%) considered as colonised. Only had history travel abroad....
The freshwater environment is suitable for nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMs) growth. Their high adaptability represents a considerable risk sanitary water systems, which are potential vector NTMs transmission. This study investigated the occurrence of NTMs, such as
This investigation provides for the first time a general view of prescribing patterns antimicrobials in small animal practice Emilia Romagna, Italy. In context project on antimicrobial resistance managed by Regional Veterinary Service, veterinary clinicians were invited to voluntarily complete an online questionnaire. was designed gather information practices and biosecurity measures understand perception issue specific this region total, 266 questionnaires correctly completed collected....
Wastewater-based surveillance enabled the first detection of mobile colistin resistance gene mcr-10 in Italy. This plasmid-borne was found strains Klebsiella quasipneumoniae isolated from samples human raw sewage collected over several months. Although isolates were phenotypically susceptible to colistin, emergence is concerning due highly variable expression and potential for horizontal transfer other species. In addition, also carried an extended-spectrum β-lactamase resistant...
Studies regarding the transfer of mycotoxins from sow feed to colostrum are scarce. A sample in-house produced lactation and one were collected two or three sows per farm (total 49) 19 farms. The contents aflatoxins (AFs), fumonisins (FUs), deoxynivalenol (DON) zearalenone (ZEA) assessed using ELISA confirmed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), values very low (10, 12, 17 2 positive samples for AFs, FUs, DON ZEA, respectively), except (one AF, DON). Based on values, 13 farms...
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection poses a significant health risk, particularly for high-risk groups such as men who have sex with (MSM), people living HIV (PLHIV), and transgender individuals. Despite the availability of effective vaccines, uptake among these remains suboptimal due to various social behavioral barriers (BeSD). A cross-sectional survey was conducted at Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) clinic in Bologna, Italy, from 8 April 12 2024 using paper questionnaire,...
Italy is one of the European Countries with highest level antimicrobial consumption, both in community and hospital settings, prevalence resistant microorganisms. In 2015, Project "Good practices for surveillance control resistance" was funded by Italian National Centre Disease Prevention Control (CCM): aim to promote integrated actions at national resistance, favouring transfer existing good practices. The principal objectives project were: describe scenario based on literature review;...
Population Medicine considers the following types of articles:• Research Papers -reports data from original research or secondary dataset analyses.• Review -comprehensive, authoritative, reviews within journal's scope.These include both systematic and narrative reviews.• Short Reports -brief reports research.• Policy Case Studies articles on policy development at a regional national level.• Study Protocols -articles describing protocol study.• Methodology -papers that present different...
Background Italy records very alarming levels antimicrobial resistance (AMR), so a National Action Plan on Antimicrobial (PNCAR) was developed, adopting the AMR European Union’s recommendations based results of ECDC site visit January 2017. For achieving PNCAR objectives, it is necessary to support and harmonize implementation in all different healthcare (regional authorities local trusts), SPiNCAR project launched create tool for reaching this goal. Methods We developed framework scientific...
This study analyzed data from 6 years (2014–2019) of official controls in the Emilia-Romagna region (northern Italy) to investigate frequencies human pathogens and chemical hazards foods during production distribution. Campylobacter spp. was most prevalent pathogen, isolated 4.4% 1,078 food samples examined, followed by Salmonella (2.8%), Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) (1.9%), Listeria monocytogenes (0.9%). serotyping showed that isolates belonged serotypes commonly humans...
