Abstract: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a common inflammatory skin disease caused by delayed hypersensitivity to chemical and biotic contact allergens. ACD significantly affects the patients' quality of life negatively impacting both occupational and non-occupational settings. Patch testing is the gold standard diagnostic in vivo test to precise the ACD etiology and to correctly perform prevention. According to the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA) legislative decree no. 178 of 29th May 1991, allergens are defined as medicines and therefore they are subject to strict regulation. In 2017, AIFA (decree no. 2130/2017) started a procedure to regulate contact allergens on the Italian market and actually the contact allergens temporarily authorized are reported in AIFA decree no. 98/2022, valid until November 2023. The availability on the market of contact allergens to diagnose ACD and continuous updating on the basis of new epidemiological trends are mandatory, jointly with the continuous update of the baseline and integrative series for patch testing. For this reason, the scientific community represented in Italy by the Skin Allergies Study Group of SIDeMaST (Italian Society of Dermatology and Venereology) and SIDAPA (Italian Society of Allergological, Occupational and Environmental Dermatology) are constantly working, in close relationship with the European scientific communities with large expertise in this important sector of the modern Dermatology. Herein, we report the setting up of regulatory legislation by AIFA and the new Italian Adult Baseline Series for patch testing.

Abstract: Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic stressed the necessity of a new resilience of the human population and health system. The “WeCare Generation” program is a new proposal of territorial intervention, with a new paradigm, on the diseases of the human body and mind. Background: In recent decades, the independent strands of investigation on brain plasticity and early trauma consequences have demonstrated that traumatic experiences in the period from pregnancy to the age of 3 years have an enormous impact on an individual’s future development, and both physical and mental health. Research shows that adverse child experiences (ACEs) are associated with a strong risk of conditions such as: harmful alcohol use, smoking, illicit drug use, high body-mass index, depression, anxiety, interpersonal violence, cancer, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, stroke respiratory diseases and, as a consequence, to a high financial cost in Italy and also across Europe (1–9% GDP) and the USA (total annual costs estimated to be USD 581 billion in Europe and USD 748 billion in North America). All this suggests that an early intervention on that traumatized-slice of population leads to multiplied savings. Methods: A multi-center, randomized, controlled trial was designed. The parents of the future neonatal population (from pregnancy to delivery) with trauma will be enrolled, and randomized to treatment, or control arm. The article describes in detail how the primary outpoint (cost to the national health system), and some secondary outpoints, will be collected. Discussion: An overall rate of return on investment (ROI) statistically significant 13.0% per annum with an associated benefit/cost ratio (BCR) of 6.3 is expected as the primary outcome of the “WeCare Generation” program. Our proposed model predicts a new medical paradigm aiming to empower new generations, with a strong return on economy and health.

Abstract: Interpersonal violence in the perinatal period is frequent and should be considered a prominent health issue due to the risk of escalation of violence and the significant impact on mothers’ parenting after childbirth. Domestic violence during pregnancy can be associated with fatal and non-fatal adverse health outcomes due to the direct trauma to a pregnant woman’s body and to the effect of stress on fetal growth and development. Emotional violence is a risk factor for prenatal and/or postpartum depression. Recent studies focusing on abusive situations during peripartum and possible preventive strategies were identified in PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Embase, and Sci-enceDirect. All of the available literature was retrospectively reviewed with a special attention to peer-reviewed publications from the last ten years. Results of the present narrative review suggest that perinatal health care professionals (general practitioners, gynecologists, obstetricians, psycholo-gists, psychiatrists) should promptly detect interpersonal violence during and after pregnancy and provide health care for pregnant women. It seems pivotal to guarantee psychological care for abused women before, during, and after pregnancy in order to prevent the risk of depressive symptoms, other mental or physical sequelae, and mother-to-infant bonding failure. There is an urgent need for multifaceted interventions: programs should focus on several risk factors and should design tailored care pathways fitted to the specific needs of women and finalized to support them across the lifespan.

Abstract: Background Moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) in the adolescence is a high burden disease, and its treatment can be very challenging due to paucity of approved systemic drugs for this age and their side-effects. Dupilumab was recently approved for treatment of adolescent AD. Objectives A multicentre, prospective, real-world study on the effectiveness and safety of dupilumab in adolescents (aged from >= 12 to <18 years) with moderate-to-severe AD was conducted. The main AD clinical phenotypes were also examined. Methods Data of adolescents with moderate-to-severe AD treated with dupilumab at label dosage for 16 weeks were collected. Treatment outcome was assessed by EASI, NRS itch, NRS sleep loss and CDLQI scores at baseline and after 16 weeks of treatment. The clinical scores were also evaluated according to clinical phenotypes. Results One hundred and thirty-nine adolescents were enrolled in the study. Flexural eczema and head and neck eczema were the most frequent clinical phenotypes, followed by hand eczema and portrait-like dermatitis. Coexistence of more than 1 phenotype was documented in 126/139 (88.5%) adolescents. Three patients (2.1%) contracted asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and 1 of the discontinued dupilumab treatment before the target treatment period. A significant improvement in EASI, NRS itch, NRS sleep loss and CDLQI was observed after 16 weeks of treatment with dupilumab. This outcome was better than that observed in clinical trials. Dupilumab resulted effective in all AD phenotypes, especially in diffuse eczema. Twenty-eight (20.1%) patients reported adverse events, conjunctivitis and flushing being the most frequent. None of patients discontinued dupilumab due to adverse event. Conclusions Dupilumab in adolescent AD showed excellent effectiveness at week 16 with consistent improvement of all clinical scores. Moreover, dupilumab showed a good safety profile also in this COVID-19 pandemic era.

Abstract: STUDY QUESTION: We aim to develop, disseminate and implement a minimum data set, known as a core outcome set, for future male infertility research. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Research into male infertility can be challenging to design, conduct and report. Evidence from randomized trials can be difficult to interpret and of limited ability to inform clinical practice for numerous reasons. These may include complex issues, such as variation in outcome measures and outcome reporting bias, as well as failure to consider the perspectives of men and their partners with lived experience of fertility problems. Previously, the Core Outcome Measure for Infertility Trials (COMMIT) initiative, an international consortium of researchers, healthcare professionals and people with fertility problems, has developed a core outcome set for general infertility research. Now, a bespoke core outcome set for male infertility is required to address the unique challenges pertinent to male infertility research. STUDY DESIGN SIZE DURATION: Stakeholders, including healthcare professionals, allied healthcare professionals, scientists, researchers and people with fertility problems, will be invited to participate. Formal consensus science methods will be used, including the modified Delphi method, modified Nominal Group Technique and the National Institutes of Health's consensus development conference. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS SETTING METHODS: An international steering group, including the relevant stakeholders outlined above, has been established to guide the development of this core outcome set. Possible core outcomes will be identified by undertaking a systematic review of randomized controlled trials evaluating potential treatments for male factor infertility. These outcomes will be entered into a modified Delphi method. Repeated reflection and re-scoring should promote convergence towards consensus outcomes, which will be prioritized during a consensus development meeting to identify a final core

Abstract: Early detection and prompt treatment of psychosis is of the utmost importance. The great variability in clinical onset, illness course, and response to pharmacological and psychosocial treatment is in great part gender-related. Our aim has been to review narratively the literature focusing on gender related differences in the psychoses, i.e., schizophrenia spectrum disorders. We searched the PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Embase, and ScienceDirect databases on 31 July 2021, focusing on recent research regarding sex differences in early psychosis. Although women, compared to men, tend to have better overall functioning at psychotic symptom onset, they often present with more mood symptoms, may undergo misdiagnosis and delay in treatment and are at a higher risk for antipsychotic drug-induced metabolic and endocrine-induced side effects. Furthermore, women with schizophrenia spectrum disorders have more than double the odds of having physical comorbidities than men. Tailored treatment plans delivered by healthcare services should consider gender differences in patients with a diagnosis of psychosis, with a particular attention to early phases of disease in the context of the staging model of psychosis onset.

Abstract: il saggio introduce i molteplici conte nuti del vollume e li armonizza nella cornice dell'integrazione sociale. tempi attuali pongono ogni giorno sfide serissime ai nostri sistemi di pensiero e alle regole del gioco democratico; ogni movimento uma- no (di pochi individui o di intere popolazioni) genera scompensi e turbamenti in realtà sociali che già faticosamente, nella quotidianità, trovano un proprio equilibrio; ogni diversità ‘nuova’ si aggiunge alle molte diversità già in essere e già tollerate, e può risvegliare intolleranze vecchie e nuove, mettere in luce il ‘tallone di Achille’ di ogni micro-società (le sue manchevolezze, le sue ambiguità, i suoi ideali abbandonati ecc.) (Zanfrini, 2012). È facile, in questo regime di instabilità, utilizzare lo schema delle ‘soglie massime’ e pensare in modo unilaterale che le migrazioni devono fi nire, rientrare, essere impedite ecc., senza rendersi conto di come ogni movimento umano sia concatenato e, quindi, anche una minima reazione (se positiva, ma ancor più se negativa) in ambito locale possa suscitare una conseguenza non voluta altrove.

19. The seminiferous tubule caliber pattern as evaluated at high magnification during microdissection testicular sperm extraction predicts sperm retrieval in patients with non‐obstructive azoospermia.

Author: Caroppo, E., Colpi, E. M., Gazzano, G., Vaccalluzzo, L., Piatti, E., D'Amato, G., and Colpi, G. M.
Subjects: *SPERMATOGENESIS, *OLIGOSPERMIA
Abstract: Background: microTESE proved to be the gold standard surgical approach for patients with non‐obstructive azoospermia (NOA), but sperm retrieval rates (SRRs) vary considerably among centers. Some authors compared their SRRs with the pattern of seminiferous tubule caliber found at high magnification, but none provided diagnostic accuracy measures. Objective: The present retrospective study sought to verify the diagnostic accuracy of the pattern of seminiferous tubule caliber in predicting the sperm retrieval in NOA patients. Materials and Methods: Data from 143 infertile NOA men undergoing unilateral (64) or bilateral (79) microTESE (222 testes) were retrospectively evaluated. During microTESE, if present, dilated tubules (DTs) were retrieved, otherwise tubules with slightly larger caliber (SDT) (×24) than that of the surroundings were removed. When no DT or SDT were found, not dilated tubules (NDTs) were excised. Results: Spermatozoa were retrieved in 95 of 222 testes (42.8%); sperm retrieval was successful in 90% of testes with DTs, in 47% of those with SDTs, and only in 7% of those with NDTs (p < 0.0001). Stepwise binary logistic regression revealed that the combination of seminiferous tubule pattern and testis histology was significantly predictive of SSR, being able to classify 86.8% of testes, with an excellent diagnostic accuracy (AUC 0.93). The median number of spermatozoa retrieved was significantly higher in DTs compared with SDTs and NDTs. Discussion: The results of the present study provide reliable accuracy measures in support of the relationship between seminiferous tubule caliber pattern and SSR in patients with non‐obstructive azoospermia. We are proposing for the first time that spermatozoa may be retrieved even from slightly dilated tubules in about half of cases. The pattern of tubules retrieved, together with histology, may represent an additional outcome measure of microTESE. Conclusion: The pattern of seminiferous tubules together with testis histology predicts sperm retrieval with an excellent diagnostic accuracy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Il volume è diviso in quattro sezioni. La prima parte contiene un ampio ventaglio di statistiche sociali, , che toccano tutte le aree di inserimento degli immigrati e dei loro figli nella comunità locale bresciana, con particolare focus su lavoro, sanità, istruzione. Il contributo di Cavasola, in accordo con la mission del CIRMiB, analizza la ‘distribuzione degli immigrati sul territorio fino ai livelli dei distretti socio-sanitari e dei singoli comuni, l’andamento delle diverse nazionalità nelle loro componenti regolari e irregolari, la segmentazione della popolazione per genere, età e anzianità di immigrazione’. La presenza straniera nel sistema formativo bresciano, che si profila ‘come scenario scolastico multiculturale complesso con alcuni trend analoghi a quelli nazionali e alcune sue specificità’ è ben delineato nel saggio di Barabanti. La seconda parte dell’Annuario approfondisce il tema attualissimo della gestione dei profughi e richiedenti asilo a diversi livelli territoriali - internazionale ed europeo, nazionale, regionale, locale -. Il filo rosso che lega i sette contributi è la ‘gestione locale’ dei ‘migranti forzati’. Gli articoli ‘esplorano la questione dai diversi punti di osservazione territoriale, dove l’operatività - assistenza legale, socio-sanitaria e orientamento ai servizi - si incontra con la capacità di rielaborazione teorica e con le responsabilità istituzionali di chi ha in carico l’accoglienza’. Il sistema di accoglienza dei ‘migranti forzati’ in Italia è ben descritto, nelle sue articolazioni, dal Prefetto Morcone, che ripercorre ‘l’attività di soccorso ed accoglienza, di primo e di secondo livello, nonché delle domande di protezione internazionale’.

Abstract: Summary. Background: Low ankle–brachial Index (ABI) identifies patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic peripheral arterial disease. The aim of this study was to correlate ABI value (normal or low) with 1-year clinical outcome in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndromes or cerebrovascular diseases (CVD). Methods: ABI was measured in consecutive patients hospitalized because of acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). An ABI lower than or equal to 0.90 was considered abnormal. The primary outcome of the study was the composite of non-fatal acute myocardial infarction, non-fatal ischemic stroke, and death from any cause during the year following the index event. Results: An abnormal ABI was found in 27.2% of 1003 patients with acute coronary syndromes, and in 33.5% of 755 patients with acute CVD. After a median follow-up of 372 days, the frequency of the primary outcome was 10.8% (57/526) in patients with abnormal ABI and 5.9% (73/1232) in patients with normal ABI [odds ratio (OR) 1.96; 95% CI 1.36–2.81]. Death was more common in patients with abnormal ABI (OR 2.05; 95% CI 1.31–3.22). Cardiovascular mortality accounted for 81.7% of overall mortality. ABI was predictive of adverse outcome after adjustment for vascular risk factors in the logistic regression analysis (OR 1.93; 95% CI 1.24–3.01). The predictive value of ABI was mainly accounted for by patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndromes (adverse outcome: 12.8% in patients with abnormal ABI and 5.9% in patients with normal ABI, OR 2.35; 95% CI 1.47–3.76). Conclusions: An abnormal ABI can be found in one-third of patients hospitalized for acute coronary or cerebrovascular events and is a predictor of an adverse 1-year outcome.

Abstract: Although residential facilities (RFs) have largely replaced mental hospitals (MHs) in most developed countries for the long-term residential care of severely impaired patients, the process of care in RFs has not been well studied. The aim of this paper is to investigate the process of care in 265 RFs, representing 19.3% of all RFs in Italy, and to devise a classification of RFs based on process characteristics. Structured interviews were conducted with the manager and staff of each RF. Residents were evaluated using standardized rating instruments. Most RFs had specific admission criteria, with one third having a waiting list that averaged about 3 months. There was no formal limitation to the length of stay in three quarters of RFs, and turnover rates were very low. Although a homelike atmosphere was found in many RFs, most facilities had restrictive rules on patients’ daily lives and behaviours. RFs carried out several external activities targeted at integrating patients within the local community. Standardized assessment instruments and written treatment plans were rarely used. A cluster analysis based on the levels of restrictiveness and the standardization of the process of care classified RFs into five groups that differed with respect to daily staff coverage, size, geographical distribution and proportion of former MH residents. No significant intercluster differences were associated with the current clinical and psychosocial characteristics of residents, or with several other outcome variables. This study provides naturalistic evidence of the heterogeneity of the process of residential care on a large scale. Future efforts should focus on developing an empirical classification of RFs, as well as on national and international standards of care and staffing to address patients’ needs.

Abstract: Item does not contain fulltext, BACKGROUND Although ovarian reserve tests (ORTs) are frequently used prior to IVF treatment for outcome prediction, their added predictive value is unclear. We assessed the added value of ORTs to patient characteristics in the prediction of IVF outcome. METHODS An individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis from published studies was performed. Studies on FSH, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) or antral follicle count (AFC) in women undergoing IVF were identified and authors were contacted. Using random intercept logistic regression models, we estimated the added predictive value of ORTs for poor response and ongoing pregnancy after IVF, relative to patient characteristics. RESULTS We were able to collect 28 study databases, comprising 5705 women undergoing IVF. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) for female age in predicting poor response was 0.61. AFC and AMH each significantly improved the model fit (P-value <0.001). Moreover, almost a similar accuracy was reached using AMH or AFC alone (AUC 0.78 and 0.76, respectively). Combining the two tests, however, did not improve prediction (AUC 0.80, P = 0.19) of poor response. In predicting ongoing pregnancy after IVF, age was the best single predictor (AUC 0.57), and none of the ORTs added any value. CONCLUSIONS This IPD meta-analysis demonstrates that AFC and AMH clearly add to age in predicting poor response. As single tests, AFC and AMH both fully cover the prediction of poor ovarian response. In contrast, none of the ORTs add any information to the limited capacity of female age to predict ongoing pregnancy after IVF. The clinical usefulness of ORTs prior to IVF will be limited to the prediction of ovarian response.

35. Stability of attachment-related anxiety and avoidance and their relationships with the five-factor model and the psychobiological model of personality.

Author: Picardi A, Caroppo E, Toni A, Bitetti D, and Di Maria G
Abstract: OBJECTIVES: The stability of attachment-related anxiety and avoidance and their relationship with influential personality models are issues worth further investigation. Studying discriminant validity with respect to aspects of personality deemed as prevalently heritable, such as temperament, is particularly important. Our aims were to examine the stability of attachment dimensions and to study their relationship with psychological distress, the Big Five factors, and temperament and character dimensions. METHODS: The Experiences in Close Relationships (ECR) questionnaire, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Zung depression scale (ZDS), the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI-125), and the Big Five Questionnaire (BFQ) were administered to 222 undergraduate and graduate students. After 1 month, 115 participants completed again the ECR, the STAI, and the ZDS. RESULTS: Attachment-related anxiety was modestly correlated with depression and anxiety, while attachment-related avoidance was modestly correlated with depression. The test-retest reliability of ECR scores was high. Changes in attachment-related anxiety were not related to changes in depression or anxiety, and changes in attachment-related avoidance were modestly correlated with changes in depression. In separate multiple regression models also including gender and age, attachment-related anxiety was correlated with harm avoidance, reward dependence, low novelty seeking, low self-directedness and low cooperativeness; low energy/extraversion and low emotional stability; attachment-related avoidance was correlated with low reward dependence and tended to be correlated with low self-directedness. CONCLUSIONS: These findings corroborate the reliability and the convergent and discriminant validity of the ECR, and support the notion that the attachment dimensions are only modestly related to psychological distress and are not redundant with constructs developed within influential personality models such as the five-factor model and the psychobiological model.

36. Reproductive genetics. Molecular and cytogenetic characterization of an azoospermic male with a de-novo Y;14 translocation and alternate centromere inactivation

Author: Buonadonna, A.L., Cariola, F., Caroppo, E., Carlo, A.Di, Fiorente, P., Valenzano, M.C., D'Amato, G., and Gentile, M.
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Y-autosome (Y/A) translocations have been reported in association with male infertility. Different hypotheses have been made as to correlations between Y/A translocations and spermatogenetic disturbances. We describe an azoospermic patient with a de-novo Y;14 translocation: 45,X,dic(Y;14)(q12;p11). METHODS AND RESULTS: Cytogenetic, fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH) and molecular studies have been performed. A 14/22 (D14Z1/D22Z1) centromere and a Y centromere (DYZ1) probe both showed a signal on the translocation chromosome, confirming its dicentricity. Each copy of the translocation chromosome had only one primary constriction, with inactivation of the Y centromere in most (90%) of the cells. The 14 centromere was inactive in the remaining cells (10%). FISH and molecular deletion mapping analysis allowed acute assignment of the Yq breakpoint to the junction of euchromatin and heterochromatin (Yq12), distal to the AZF gene location (Yq11). CONCLUSIONS: This study supports the hypothesis that in Y/A translocations infertility might be related to meiotic disturbances with spermatogenetic arrest. In addition, sex chromosome molecular investigations, performed on single spermatids, suggest a highly increased risk of producing chromosomally abnormal embryos.

Abstract: Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic stressed the necessity of a new resilience of the human population and health system. The “WeCare Generation” program is a new proposal of territorial intervention, with a new paradigm, on the diseases of the human body and mind. Background: In recent decades, the independent strands of investigation on brain plasticity and early trauma consequences have demonstrated that traumatic experiences in the period from pregnancy to the age of 3 years have an enormous impact on an individual’s future development, and both physical and mental health. Research shows that adverse child experiences (ACEs) are associated with a strong risk of conditions such as: harmful alcohol use, smoking, illicit drug use, high body-mass index, depression, anxiety, interpersonal violence, cancer, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, stroke respiratory diseases and, as a consequence, to a high financial cost in Italy and also across Europe (1–9% GDP) and the USA (total annual costs estimated to be USD 581 billion in Europe and USD 748 billion in North America). All this suggests that an early intervention on that traumatized-slice of population leads to multiplied savings. Methods: A multi-center, randomized, controlled trial was designed. The parents of the future neonatal population (from pregnancy to delivery) with trauma will be enrolled, and randomized to treatment, or control arm. The article describes in detail how the primary outpoint (cost to the national health system), and some secondary outpoints, will be collected. Discussion: An overall rate of return on investment (ROI) statistically significant 13.0% per annum with an associated benefit/cost ratio (BCR) of 6.3 is expected as the primary outcome of the “WeCare Generation” program. Our proposed model predicts a new medical paradigm aiming to empower new generations, with a strong return on economy and health.

Abstract: Purpose: Varicocele is a common problem among infertile men. Varicocele repair (VR) is frequently performed to improve semen parameters and the chances of pregnancy. However, there is a lack of consensus about the diagnosis, indications for VR and its outcomes. The aim of this study was to explore global practice patterns on the management of varicocele in the context of male infertility. Materials and Methods: Sixty practicing urologists/andrologists from 23 countries contributed 382 multiple-choice-questions pertaining to varicocele management. These were condensed into an online questionnaire that was forwarded to clinicians involved in male infertility management through direct invitation. The results were analyzed for disagreement and agreement in practice patterns and, compared with the latest guidelines of international professional societies (American Urological As- sociation [AUA], American Society for Reproductive Medicine [ASRM], and European Association of Urology [EAU]), and with evidence emerging from recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Additionally, an expert opinion on each topic was provided based on the consensus of 16 experts in the field. Results: The questionnaire was answered by 574 clinicians from 59 countries. The majority of respondents were urologists/ uro-andrologists. A wide diversity of opinion was seen in every aspect of varicocele diagnosis, indications for repair, choice of technique, management of sub-clinical varicocele and the role of VR in azoospermia. A significant proportion of the re- sponses were at odds with the recommendations of AUA, ASRM, and EAU. A large number of clinical situations were identi- fied where no guidelines are available. Conclusions: This study is the largest global survey performed to date on the clinical management of varicocele for male in- fertility. It demonstrates: 1) a wide disagreement in the approach to varicocele management, 2) large gaps in the clinical prac- tice guidelines from professional societies, and 3) the need for further studies on several aspects of varicocele management in infertile men.

43. Reduced Hedonic Tone and Emotion Dysregulation Predict Depressive Symptoms Severity during the COVID-19 Outbreak: An Observational Study on the Italian General Population

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has spiked stress-related symptoms worldwide. This study aims to assess depressive symptoms related to the early phase of the COVID-19 outbreak among the Italian general population and to analyze anhedonia and emotion dysregulation as potential predictors of depression severity. Through an online questionnaire, we collected sociodemographic and lockdown-related information, depressive symptoms, hedonic tone, and emotion dysregulation were assessed through the Beck Depression Inventory II, the Snaith&ndash, Hamilton Pleasure Scale, and the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, respectively. In our sample (n = 500), 122 individuals (24.4%) reported depressive symptoms during the COVID-19 outbreak. Individuals with and without depression differed in gender (X2 = 4.77, df = 1, p = 0.02) and age (X2 = 15.7, df = 4, p = 0.003). Among individuals presenting with depressive symptoms, those reporting close contact with confirmed cases of COVID-19 were at higher risk for severe depression (p = 0.026). Reduced hedonic tone (p = 0.014) and emotion dysregulation (p &lt, 0.001) also predicted depression severity. To the best of our knowledge, these are among the earliest data that focus on the risk for depression among a sizeable sample of the Italian general population during the COVID-19 outbreak. Our results indicate emotion dysregulation and reduced hedonic tone as potential factors predicting COVID-19-related depression severity and provide insight into developing targeted intervention policies.

46. Il referendum sul divorzio del 12 maggio 1974. Dibattiti, propaganda politica, opinione pubblica

Author: E. Caroppo, E. Caroppo, and Caroppo, E.
Subjects: Referendum, Divorzio, Comunicazione politica, Storia dell'Italia repubblicana, Storia della Puglia in età contemporanea
Abstract: Inserito all’interno del difficile clima degli anni di piombo, il saggio analizza il rapporto della Puglia con il referendum abrogativo del 12 maggio del 1974 della legge sul divorzio. Partendo dall’approvazione della legge Fortuna-Baslini (la n. 898 del 1.12.1970) e dal dibattito che ne era scaturito, si ricostruisce innanzitutto il complesso e articolato quadro delle posizioni che si svilupparono in Italia tra coloro che furono a favore del referendum e coloro che invece lo avversarono, in virtù soprattutto di una lettura del divorzio come una scelta di libertà e di democrazia. Particolare attenzione è rivolta al fronte dei cattolici, contrassegnato da profonde divisioni al suo interno che portarono, anche in Puglia - fu il caso per esempio della posizione pro-divorzio del docente dell’Ateno salentino Arrigo Colombo -, a lacerazioni ormai insanabili. Attraverso l’analisi dei principali interventi in Parlamento dei deputati pugliesi, delle strategie elettorali perseguite tanto dal fronte del “sì” quanto da quello del “no”, di diversi articoli – anche di cittadini pugliesi – pubblicati sulla stampa locale (principalmente nelle pagine de La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno), emerge come anche la Puglia fu una regione particolarmente sensibile al problema del referendum, rivelando spesso, e sull’onda di una battaglia elettorale che aveva assunto in molti casi tratti fortemente politicizzati, un atteggiamento conservatore e contrario al divorzio. E difatti, mentre in altre parti del Mezzogiorno era largamente prevalso il voto per il “no”, nella regione il 52,6% dei votanti si espresse per il “sì” mentre il 47,4% per il “no”, con una prevalenza dei risultati favorevoli all’abrogazione nelle province (tranne che in quella di Taranto) e di quelli favorevoli al divorzio nei capoluoghi (con la sola esclusione di quello di Foggia)
