Indicators generally used to describe the work accident risk, i.e. frequency and injuries severity, are not suitable for comparison among single companies in order to point out those with major risk. We propose a method to draw out construction companies with higher risk of occupational injuries in the period 2003-2005 from INAIL-ISPESL-Regioni database. These companies will be object of specific interventions for the prevention, training and supervision from Prevention and Safety in Working Environments Services, from Provincial Labor Directions and Provincial Territorial Construction Committees.

Zircaloy-4 (Zr-4) is widely used as the cladding material in nuclear power plants (NPPs) due to its excellent corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section. Under Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) conditions, oxidation of Zr-4 can compromise the safety of the NPPs by accelerating hydrogen production. Therefore, enhancing the oxidation resistance of Zr-4 is a critical research focus.

Ankle fractures, often accompanied by other injuries and complications, pose a significant healthcare burden due to their high incidence and associated treatment challenges. This case report investigates the use of Cytal™ Wound Matrix, derived from urinary bladder matrix (UBM), in managing postoperative complications following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of a trimalleolar ankle fracture. A 57-year-old male with a history of hypertension sustained a trimalleolar ankle fracture following a road traffic accident.
