Assessing Lifestyle in a Large Cohort of Undergraduate Students: Significance of Stress, Exercise and Nutrition.

Background/objectives: Lifestyle (in particular, nutrition and exercise) determines present and future youths' health. The goal of the present study was to identify specific student groups who deserve precise lifestyle improvement interventions, tailored to their characteristics.

Methods: An anonymous web-based questionnaire to assess lifestyle was posted on the websites of two main Italian Academic Institutions, and 9423 students voluntarily participated.

COVID-19 Pandemic's Effects on Occupational Health and Perceived Work Ability of a Large Group of Italian Banking Employees.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic compelled changes to the structure and organization of many occupational sectors that may impact workers' well-being and work-related symptoms.

Objective: Evaluate the effects of working modifications related to the COVID-19 pandemic on occupational health outcomes and work ability (WA) among a large group of Italian banking employees.

Methods: 2,859 employees visited during health surveillance in 2021 were divided into two job groups: front-office (FO) and back-office workers (BO).

Aim of the study was to assess the use of pharmacological therapies provided in Nursing Homes and Protected Residences of the Umbria Region, with reference to central nervous system medications. In 2022, 200 ddd (defined daily doses) per 100 bed-days were administered in Umbria's long term care facilities, representing a 6.2% decrease compared to the previous year.

Memory consolidation, temporal and parietal atrophy, and metabolism in amyloid-β positive and negative mild cognitive impairment.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is classically characterized by alterations in memory consolidation. With the advent of diagnostic biomarkers, some patients clinically diagnosed with AD display biomarkers inconsistent with the diagnosis.

Objective: We aimed to explore differences in memory consolidation and neurodegeneration of the temporal and parietal lobes as a function of amyloid-β status in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI).

ICOSLG Is Associated with Anti-PD-1 and Concomitant Antihistamine Treatment Response in Advanced Melanoma.

We previously demonstrated that patients with metastatic unresectable stage IIIb-IV melanoma receiving cetirizine (a second-generation H1 antagonist antihistamine) premedication with immunotherapy had better outcomes than those not receiving cetirizine. In this retrospective study, we searched for a gene signature potentially predictive of the response to the addition of cetirizine to checkpoint inhibition (nivolumab or pembrolizumab with or without previous ipilimumab). Transcriptomic analysis showed that inducible T cell costimulator ligand (ICOSLG) expression directly correlated with the disease control rate (DCR) when detected with a loading value > 0.
