The COVID-19 pandemic presented unprecedented challenges to European healthcare systems. study aimed review the available evidence on impact of timely diagnosis cancer across countries. primary objective was examine changes in diagnostic pathways and stage at during pandemic, compared pre-pandemic period, countries, taking system characteristics policies into account.
The administration of vaccines in pharmacies was not allowed Italy until 2021. During the COVID-19 pandemic, legislative innovations were introduced that now allow qualified pharmacists to administer anti-flu and anti-COVID-19 after completing specific training.
In Lombardy, the first European region hit by COVID-19 pandemic, for decades regional public healthcare service has followed a mixed delivery model with extensive involvement of private accredited providers. The study aimed at examining role sector in delivering services (diagnosis, hospitalization, and vaccination) during pandemic.
Improving the quality and effectiveness of healthcare is a key priority in health policy. The emergence COVID-19 pandemic has exerted considerable pressure on hospital networks, requiring unprecedented reorganization restructuring actions.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of mental health comorbidities on unplanned hospital admissions (UHAs) in Province Pescara, Southern Italy, during 2015-2022. Mental are underreported administrative data, yet their association with UHAs has significant public implications. Methods: A retrospective observational design was used analyze 59,374 extracted from discharge records (HDRs). Admissions patients under 18 years age, deliveries, day admissions, and readmissions were...
This study explores the potential of Internet search data from Google Trends and Wikipedia as innovative tools for monitoring public interest behavior related to illicit drug information. Employing a cross‐sectional design, this research investigates correlations between patterns on these platforms provides insights into health monitoring. Our analysis indicates significant searches various drugs, with correlation coefficients ranging 0.71 0.83, suggesting that can not only reflect but also...
Purpose: To evaluate whether the speed of stripping a Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty graft influences scroll width. Methods: Human corneas suitable for research were selected study. Pairs randomly divided into 2 groups: 1 cornea was stripped with slow (group 1) and contralateral fast 2). Slow defined as total time greater than 150 seconds or <0.057 mm/s. Fast peeling less 75 >0.11 The grafts acquired evaluated by microscopy width cell density change pre- post-preparation....
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate if pre‐existing mental health morbidity (MHM) might influence help‐seeking and willingness to undergo diagnostic investigations for potential colorectal cancer (CRC) symptoms. Methods An online vignette survey was completed by 1307 adults aged > 50 years recruited through Prolific, a UK panel provider. Participants self‐reported any chronic physical or MHM.

To describe a new technique to deliver riboflavin into the corneal stroma during Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL) without removal of epithelium.Keratoconus patients underwent CXL for progressive keratoconus. Riboflavin was delivered by manually creating an epithelial pocket (CXL Epi-Pocket). Verbal rating scale recorded postoperatively. Best-corrected visual acuity, keratometric indices, thickness and densitometry were at baseline 12-month follow-up.Eighteen eyes 18 included in study. At...

The main objective study deepen data on physicians, provide a prospective picture make some suggestions for future planning. Materials Methods: Estimates contracts, assignments, abandonments specialist are based from General Medical...
Two-dimensional (2D) optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is known to be prone segmentation errors, especially in pathologic eyes. Therefore, our aim was systematically compare intrasession repeatability between repeated scans for 2D and three-dimensional (3D) OCTA metrics quantifying retinal perfusion eyes with diabetic macular edema.Diabetic patients retinopathy edema who had two consecutive imaging obtained during the same visit were retrospectively included. A previously...
Purpose: To quantitatively evaluate the photoreceptor structural changes in fellow unaffected eyes of patients with unilateral central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional study. We analyzed data from diagnosis CSC, as based on clinical examination and multimodal imaging, who had optical coherence tomography obtained. An additional group age-matched healthy was included for comparison. Main outcome measures were follows: (1) foveal outer segment...
