Since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak a pandemic on 11 March, severe lockdown measures have been adopted by Italian Government. For over two months of stay-at-home orders, houses became only place where people slept, ate, worked, practiced sports, and socialized. As consolidated evidence exists housing as determinant health, it is great interest to explore impact that COVID-19 response-related had mental health well-being....
BACKGROUND: Since the World Health Organization declared new 2019 coronavirus disease (Covid-19) outbreak first a Public Emergency of International Concern and then pandemic, Italy held more than 195.350 cases 26.380 deaths. Working in frontline with suspected Covid-19 infection patients, general practitioners (GPs) are daily under both physical psychological pressure.� Methods: A web-based cross-sectional survey was carried out on italian GPs working Genoa (Italy), to assess impact pandemic...
Increased left ventricular afterload during peripheral venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support frequently causes hydrostatic pulmonary oedema. Because physiological studies demonstrated decrease VA-ECMO assistance combined with the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), we progressively changed our standard practice systematically to associate an IABP VA-ECMO. This study aimed evaluate efficacy in preventing oedema VA-ECMO-assisted patients.A retrospective single-centre...

Ninety-four 165 people were 676 591 subjects same age range from The influence diabetes on evaluated...
Patients infected with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV 2) and requiring intensive care unit (ICU) have a high incidence of hospital-acquired infections; however, data regarding hospital acquired bloodstream infections (BSI) are scarce. We aimed to investigate risk factors outcome BSI in critically ill infectious disease-19 (COVID-19) patients.We performed an ancillary analysis multicenter prospective international cohort study (COVID-ICU study) that included...
The aim of this study is to describe the relationship between self-rated physical activity during leisure time and cardiovascular disease mortality in 2936 individuals cohort Brisighella Heart Study, a prospective, population-based, longitudinal, epidemiological survey.Long-term (1988-2000) prognostic significance was determined after adjustments for age, sex, smoking habits, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol history type 2 diabetes.At baseline, 377 (25.3%) male 496 (34.3%) female...
The ability of viscous layer models to describe the attenuation waves propagating in grease-pancake ice covered ocean is investigated. In particular, Keller's model Keller [1998], two-layer [De Carolis and Desiderio 2002] close-packing Santi Olla 2017] are extensively validated by using wave data collected during two different field campaigns (Weddell Sea, Antarctica, April 2000; western Arctic Ocean, autumn 2015). We use these validate three minimizing differences between measured...

For this study, we analysed data sampled 2008 BHS population survey, excluding those participants treated with antihypertensive and/or lipid lowering drugs (N: 2473).In sex, BMI, smoking habit, physical activity creatinine...
Nowadays, sea surface analysis and monitoring increasingly use remote sensing, with particular interest in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). Several SAR techniques exist literature to understand the marine phenomena affecting surface. In this work, we focus on Doppler Centroid Anomaly (DCA), which accounts for shift induced by movements. Starting from raw data, develop a processing chain elaborate them output velocity map using DCA. The DCA technique has often been presented estimating...
The Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) often is used to measure exercise capacity in people with cardiopulmonary diseases but has some disadvantages. 6MWT administered on a treadmill (Tr6MWT) requires less physical space and allows for easier monitoring of vital parameters than the traditional 6MWT.The objectives this study were: (1) analyze validity Tr6MWT who underwent cardiac surgery; (2) compare reliability, responsiveness, people's tolerance those 6MWT; (3) evaluate agreement between 2...
Several studies have shown the capabilities of Synthetic Aperture Radar to map sea currents in ocean regions mainly characterized by large flows. We consider well known method based on analysis Doppler Centroid. The Doppler, as, general, scattering from sea, is sensitive several phenomena, occurring between upper and atmospheric boundary layers. To investigate such we considered combined use both ENVISAT calibrated amplitude data conjunction with hindcast wind information provided models as...
Phytoplankton blooms in internal water bodies are an unpleasant sight that often emerges on top like a layer of foam containing high concentrations toxins (scum event). Monitoring the concentration algae and occurrence scum lakes lagoons has become topic interest for management science. Optical remote sensing is validated tool but unfortunately it highly hindered by clouds. For regions with frequent cloud cover, such as Baltic region, this means loss data, which limits purpose to spatially...
