Abstract

Background. The aim of the study was to evaluate in the Italian smokers, the effects of implementation of the law about Pictorial Health Warnings (PHWs) on tobacco products.Methods. A quasi-experimental longitudinal design was conducted between 2016 and 2017. The data were collected before (pre-PHW/Wave 1) and after (post-PHW/Wave 2) the implementation of the law. The adopted questionnaire included impact of advertisement (Label Impact Index, LII), quitting behavior and knowledge of tobacco related diseases.Results. 455 respondents completed both the Waves. 7.7% of smokers declared to have stopped smoking in Wave 2 and 29% of these declared the PHWs as one of the reasons to quit. The knowledge of tobacco related diseases was significantly (p < 0.001) increased from Wave 1 to Wave 2 (58% versus 72%), similarly the LII (mean = 26.9, SD = 16.7 and mean = 40.4, SD = 16.2).Conclusion. Tobacco addiction is a problem that needs to be addressed from different angles. PHWs confirm their complementary role as a support for smokers along with other strategies such as text warnings and the tobacco quit line of the Istituto Superiore di Sanita (Italian National Institute of Health) reported on the packages. Nonetheless, over the years these measures have been not enough and policy makers should consider more strategies synergistically acting in the fight against tabagism.

Abstract

Aims: In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified red meat (RM) and processed meat (PM) intakes as 'probably carcinogenic' and 'carcinogenic' to humans, respectively. The aim of the study was to evaluate eating behaviours and knowledge on the potential risks of RM-PM consumption among gym users.Methods: In 2018, a cross-sectional survey was conducted in 20 gyms in Turin using a 48-item questionnaire assessing sociodemographic, sports, dietary information and knowledge about RM-PM (sample size = 298). Multivariable logistic and linear regressions were performed. The significance level was p ⩽ 0.05.Results: Around 75% of the sample consumed RM and PM at least once a week, with an average of 240.55 ± 435.99 g and 106.50 ± 157.88 g consumed weekly, respectively. Only 7.69% exceeded 700 g of raw RM weekly. Females, those with higher education, those who practise sport outside gyms and those who declared to practise sport to stay healthy, declared to consume less RM. Those who practise sport at a competitive level, those who are on a diet for athletic needs, those with higher body mass index (BMI) and those who consume more eggs and alcohol had a higher RM intake. The association with PM consumption was negative for females and positive for those living without a partner. The likelihood of answering incorrectly to one of the knowledge outcomes was lower for those who had a healthcare-related background and declared to practise sport to stay healthy, while it was higher for participants who stated to have a sport-related background, to be on a diet to lose weight, to read rarely/never the RM-PM nutrition labels and to consume <400 g of fruit and vegetables daily.Conclusions: Given the relatively low knowledge of the potential risks of RM-PM consumption, it would be advisable to implement campaigns specifically focused on male athletes and people with lower socioeconomic status, in order to raise awareness about this topic.

Abstract

Italy has a monitoring system for genetic testing, consisting in a periodic census of clinical and laboratory activities performed in the country. The experience is limited, however, concerning the translation of genomic testing for complex diseases into clinical practice. For the first time the Italian Ministry of Health has introduced a policy strategic plan on genomics and predictive medicine within the 2010–2012 National Prevention Plan. This achievement was supported by the Italian Network for Public Health Genomics (GENISAP) and will likely contribute to the integration of public health genomics into health care in the country. Our experience might be of interest not only in Italy, but in other high-income countries, struggling to keep a healthy economy and healthy citizens.

Tuttavia, le informazioni sul consumo di tabacco e di formazione per fornire la cessazione di consulenza tra gli studenti mediche sono scarse. L'obiettivo di questo studio è di valutare la prevalenza del consumo di tabacco e la formazione cessazione di tabacco tra gli studenti della Facoltà di Medicina in Europa. Metodi: Global Health Professions Student Survey (GHPSS) è stato condotto tra gli studenti del terzo anno che frequentano le scuole di medicina in Germania, Italia, Polonia e Spagna. Il GHPSS è stato originariamente sviluppato dalla World Health Organization, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention e la Canadian Public Health Association. L'indagine è stata condotta nelle scuole di Marzo-Aprile 2009, durante le sessioni di classe regolare. Risultati: Il GHPSS è stato completato in 9 Medical Schools, coinvolgendo più di 1600 studenti. Oltre il 20% e oltre il 10% degli studenti attualmente fumato sigarette o altri prodotti del tabacco utilizzato, rispettivamente. L'indagine ha mostrato che la maggior parte degli studenti di medicina riconosciuto che esse svolgono un modello fondamentale ruolo nella società, e sono consapevoli del fatto che avrebbero potuto ricevere una formazione specifica di laurea su pazienti di consulenza al fine di smettere di fumare. Tuttavia, la maggior parte degli studenti ha dichiarato di non avere ricevuto tale formazione in un modo formale durante i corsi regolari. Conclusioni: La progettazione e l'attuazione di programmi per smettere di fumare tecniche di consulenza sono un importante problema di sanità pubblica nelle Scuole di Medicina e Chirurgia d'Europa, anche considerando l'alta prevalenza del fumo di tabacco tra gli studenti di medicina.
