Impact of vaccination on the spread of SARS-CoV-2 infection in north-east Italy nursing homes. A propensity score and risk analysis
Pierobon S, Braggion M, Fedeli U, Nordio M, Basso C, Zorzi M. Age Ageing. 2022 Jan 6;51(1):afab224. doi: 10.1093/ageing/afab224. Abstract Background: In the Veneto Region, 421,000 coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19) cases and 11,000 deaths have been reported since 21 February 2020. The pandemic spread particularly in nursing homes (NH). Objective: This study estimated the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection among NH residents, focusing on the risk of hospitalisation and death due to COVID-19 compared with the general older population. It also provided evidence of risk changes over time. Methods:...
HPV vaccination in women treated for Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia grade 2 or 3: evidence-based recommendation from the Multisociety Italian Guidelines for cervical cancer prevention
Venturelli F, the Multisociety Italian Guidelines for cervical cancer prevention Working Group. Eur J Gynaecol Oncol. 2021 vol. 42(5), 1039-1047. Abstract: Objective: Women treated for Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) grade 2 or 3 are at increased risk of CIN and cervical cancer. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination is effective in preventing CIN in women who are not infected by HPV. Some studies suggested that vaccination may reduce the risk of CIN2 or 3 in women treated for CIN. A working group including all Italian scientific societies involved in tackling cervical cancer...
Developing evidence-based Multisociety Italian Guidelines for cervical cancer prevention: rationale, methods, and development process.
Venturelli F, the Multisociety Italian Guidelines for cervical cancer prevention Working Group. Eur J Gynaecol Oncol. 2021 vol. 42(4), 634-642. Abstract: Objective: Cervical cancer prevention shows a variability across Italian Regions unjustified by available evidence, increasing the health, economic and organizational burden. Evidence-based recommendations on topics not covered by international guidelines are needed to tackle existing inequalities. This article describes the rationale, methods, and process for development of the Multisociety Italian Guidelines for cervical cancer...
A prospective cohort study to identify biomarkers predicting the regression of grade 2 Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia. Study protocol
Del Mistro A, Frayle H, Gori S, Pagan A, Soldà M, Romagnolo C, Insacco E, Laurino L, Matteucci M, Busato E, Zorzi M, Maggino T, on behalf of the CIN2 study Working Group. European Journal of Gynaecological Oncology 2021 Volume 42 Issue 5 pp. 893-898. DOI: 10.31083/j.ejgo4205136 Abstract: Objective: The detection and treatment of high-grade cervical lesions prevent the development of invasive cervical cancer. Excisional procedures can pose a risk for subsequent pregnancies, thus conservative management of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) lesions should be adopted in young...

Buja A, De Luca G, Zorzi M, Carpin E, Pinato C, Vecchiato A, Del Fiore P, Bortolami A, Tognazzo S, Falasco F, Saia M, Baldo V, Rugge M, Rossi CR, Mocellin S. Eur J Dermatol. 2021 Nov 17. doi: 10.1684/ejd.2021.4149. Online ahead of print. Abstract Promoting standardization and quality assurance (QA) may guarantee better outcomes for patients and ensure a better allocation of healthcare system resources. The present study tested the association between process quality indicators of the clinical pathway for melanoma and both patient short-term mortality and budget utilization Specific...
Prognosis for Cutaneous Melanoma by Clinical and Pathological Profile: A Population-Based Study
Buja A, Bardin A, Damiani G, Zorzi M, De Toni C, Fusinato R, Spina R, Vecchiato A, Del Fiore P, Mocellin S, Baldo V, Rugge M, Rossi CR.
