The relationship between menopause and non-fatal acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was considered by analysing data from a case-control study conducted in Italy between 1983 and 1992. Cases were 429 women, below age 75 years, with a first episode of non-fatal AMI, admitted to 30 coronary care units; controls were 863 women admitted to the same network of hospitals for acute diseases other than cardiovascular, neoplastic, or hormone-related. Postmenopausal women were not at higher risk of AMI than pre/perimenopausal women, after adjustment for age and other selected covariates [multivariate odds ratio (OR) 0.99]. With reference to age at menopause, compared with women reporting menopause when /=53, in the absence of any trend in risk. No meaningful relationship emerged with time since menopause (OR 0.85 for
Aims: To evaluate the incidence rate of first-episode psychosis in a large area of north-eastern Italy and the distribution of the above-mentioned risk factors in individuals with psychoses.
The objectives of this cross-sectional investigation among a random sample of immigrants and refugees in Italy were to gain an insight into the extent and type of the episodes of violence and to assess their association with different characteristics. Data was collected from September 2016 to July 2017 using a face-to-face structured interview. A total of 503 subjects participated. Overall, 46.5% and 40% of the sample reported having experienced some form of violence in Italy at least once since they arrived and during the last 12 months. Psychological violence was the most common form experienced by 53.2% of the participants, 40.3% experiencing physical violence, 18.9% economic violence, and only 6.5% intimate partner violence. The risk of experiencing at least one form of violence in the last 12 months in Italy was more likely to occur among immigrants who have been in Italy much longer and less likely in those who lived in a camp. The number of episodes of violence experienced since they arrived in Italy was significantly higher in female, in those who have been in Italy much longer and in those who had experienced at least one racially discriminatory episode of violence, whereas those with middle and high school or above educational level and those who did not experience psychological consequences of the violence had experienced a lower number of episodes. These results must be used to strengthen interventions and policies aimed at preventing violence among this population.
Statistical analyses were conducted in several steps. First, descriptive analyses including frequency distribution, mean, median, standard deviation, and range have been used to characterize the participating subjects. Next, independent for continuous variables or chi-square tests for binary variables were carried out to investigate the bivariate relationship between independent and dependent variables. Candidate variables were included in the corresponding multivariable models if their p-value was less than or equal to 0.25 in the univariate analysis. As a final step, multivariable ordered and logistic regression models, respectively, for ordinal and dichotomous outcomes, were constructed to examine the effects of major independent variables on the following outcomes of interest: (a) profile of the subject who has experienced at least one form of violence in the last 12 months in Italy (Model 1); (b) profile of the subject according to the number of episodes of any form of violence experienced since arriving in Italy (1=1; 2-5=2; >5=3) (Model 2). The following independent variables were included in all models: age (continuous, in years), gender (male=0; female=1), regional origin (Africa=1; Eastern Europe=2; Asia/South America=3), educational level (illiterate=1; primary school=2; middle school=3; high school and above=4), religion (Atheist=1; Christian/Catholic=2; Muslim=3; other=4), length of stay in Italy (continuous, in months), employment status (unemployed=0; employed=1), and living conditions (house=1; camp=2; street=3). Moreover, the variables types of violence (psychological=1; physical/sexual=2; economic=3), perpetrator of the violence (unknown=0; known =1), site of the violence (street/public transport=0; working place/home/camp=1), experiencing at least one racially discriminatory episode of violence (no=0; yes=1), experiencing psychological consequences of the violence (no=0; yes=1), and reaction to the violence (no=0; yes=1) were included in Model 2. Stepwise multivariate regression with an inclusion and exclusion level respectively of 0.2 and 0.4 was used to determine the final models. Multivariate regression models presented odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to reflect association strength between the different variables and the outcomes of interest. All statistical tests were two-tailed, and a p-value below or equal to 0.05 was used to determine statistical significance. Stata software version 15 was used to perform all statistical analyses of the data [19].
Table 2 shows the characteristics of the self-reported episodes of the different form of violence that had occurred in Italy at some point from their arrival and in the last 12 months in the study population. Of the study sample, 46.5% and 40% reported having experienced some form of violence at least once since they arrived in Italy and in the last 12 months, with a median of 2 and 1 different victimization forms, respectively. A total of 21.1% had been victims of more than one form of violence and almost one out of four subjects experienced four types of violence at some time during their stay in Italy. In particular among women, 56% had been victims of at least one form of violence during their stay in Italy and 28.5% experienced multiple victimizations. Among those who suffered one episode, 85.9% claimed to have been victims of violence during the 12 months prior to the survey. Psychological violence was the most common form experienced by more than half (53.2%) of the participants, 40.3% had experienced physical violence, 18.9% had experienced economic violence, and only 6.5% had intimate partner violence. More than half (61.7%) reported that they have experienced at least one episode of violence with racial discrimination. Among those who were employed, 58.1% reported having been experienced economic violence, and among those who had a partner 53.8% reported an intimate violence.
Formal comparability of the present findings with observations from previous similar international studies is limited by the heterogeneity of the methodology, including differences in the sampling strategies, the population examined, instrument for collection of data, and definition of the forms of violence, since all of which may influence the observed prevalence estimates of violence. According to the data in this study, at least one episode of violence (physical, sexual, psychological, and economic) during their stay in Italy and in the last 12 months was experienced by 46.5% and 40% of the sample of immigrants and refugees, respectively. According to the literature, the prevalence of any form of violence among this population shows remarkable differences worldwide. Namely, the value was considerably lower than the 85.7% reported in sub-Saharan migrants in Morocco or at its borders [15] and the 52.1% in female urban refugees and asylum seekers from the Democratic Republic of Congo and Somalia in Uganda [24]. The value was considerably higher than those described in previous studies conducted across other countries. Indeed, there were 4.1% victimization among immigrants in the US [25], 4.6% and 7.7% of Syrian refugees in their Greek settlement [26], and 6.5% and 12% of Latin American and Moroccan origin in Spain [7], and 15.1% of immigrants in Portugal were victims of at least one episode of violence, regardless of its type, during the past year [18], and there were 15.6%, 10.9%, and 8.6% of intimate partner violence prevalence among Ecuadorian, Moroccan, and Romanian immigrant women living in Spain [17], while 21.1% from Central America and Mexico experienced violence during their transit through Mexico towards the USA [16] and 23.7% and 39% of asylum seekers, refugees, and undocumented migrants, respectively, in eight European countries [27] and in Belgium and the Netherlands [28].
In an attempt to elucidate independent predictors of the outcomes of interest, the multivariate results revealed, after adjusting for all the selected characteristics, that several factors were uniquely related to the episodes of violence. An important finding seen was that participants who experienced at least one form of violence in the last 12 months in Italy were significantly more likely to be living in house and with a higher number of years in Italy. The risk associated with increasing duration of stay in Italy is in accordance with the already mentioned study of immigrants in Portugal [18]. This finding indicates that the influence of duration of stay on violence will be important to understand and to develop strategies to maintain the immigrant health advantage over time after migration. This remains to be studied. Furthermore, this study supports the observation that violence against women is still a common public health issue worldwide with more than half experiencing some form of physical or sexual violence during their stay in Italy and 28.5% experiencing multiple victimizations. Indeed, global estimates indicate that about 35% women have experienced either physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence or nonpartner sexual violence in their lifetime [31]. The findings regarding the higher frequency of violence in women compared to male was observed in previous studies [16, 18, 29, 32]. This disturbing finding suggests that there is plenty of room for action that should be activated as soon as possible, tailored for reducing this value.
It is logical that it may not take as long to complete active treatment in patients with small thrombi provoked by a factor that rapidly resolves. Consistent with this hypothesis, patients with isolated distal DVT provoked by a temporary risk factor, such as recent surgery, did not appear to have a higher risk of recurrence if treatment was stopped at 4 or 6 weeks compared with at 3 months or longer (hazard ratio, 0.36; 95% CI, 0.09-1.54).3 Although 4 or 6 weeks of anticoagulation may complete active treatment in patients with a small thrombus and a reversible provoking factor, this was not evident when only 1 of these 2 factors applied.3
