Introduction: Predictors of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related rehospitalization remain underexplored. This study aims to identify the main risk factors associated with rehospitalizations due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) reinfections among residents of Lombardy, northern Italy.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted using two linked administrative databases covering demographic data, comorbidities, hospital records, and COVID-19 data of Lombardy residents.
Background: Childhood obesity has become a significant public health concern over the past 2 decades, posing multifactorial challenges, including modifiable factors like dietary habits, physical activity, screen time, and sleeping habits. Prevention efforts require a comprehensive approach comprising educational interventions, collaboration among multidisciplinary teams, and community engagement. Since schools play a central role in children's lives, they are the ideal setting for promoting healthy habits.

- Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is often undiagnosed in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), and there's a need for better screening methods in clinical settings.
- A study involving 713 CAD patients in Italy found that 20.8% also had PAD, with about 15% of those being asymptomatic.
- Using an automatic instrument to measure the ankle brachial pressure index (ABI) improved the detection of PAD, highlighting the importance of routine screening to better manage cardiovascular risks.
Objectives: Current data on arterial and venous thrombotic events (ATE & VTE) and cardiovascular (CV) risk management in European systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) population are limited. This study aimed to investigate the incidence and risk of thrombotic events and all-cause death in an Italian SLE cohort over the past decade, along with its pharmacotherapy.
Methods: Incident SLE cases between 2010 and 2019 were identified using administrative health databases of the Lombardy Region.
