Echinococcosis/hydatidosis: socio-economic consequences and economic analyses of control programmes.

PubMed (1992)

Giorgio Battelli Marco Martini

A review is made of the socio-economic consequences of echinococcosis/hydatidosis and of the methods of economic analysis of control programmes. The main costs and benefits (both financial and social) which should be taken into consideration in evaluating health action are also examined.

Study on Ticks and Tick‐Borne Zoonoses in Public Parks in Italy

Zoonoses and Public Health (2012)

Raffaela Corrain Michele Drigo M. Fenati Maria Luisa Menandro Alessandra Mondin

Summary A survey on tick density and on tick‐borne zoonoses was carried out in four public parks in the outskirts of Imola (northern Italy) from June to October 2006. All stages of Ixodes ricinus and only larvae of Riphicephalus sanguineus were recovered by dragging, performed on 100‐m transects. Almost all ticks (99%) were harvested in one park. I. ricinus density (nymphs/100 m 2 ) ranged from 0 in park L to 6.3 in park F. Nymphs and adults of I. ricinus were subjected to PCR for Anaplasma phagocytophilum , Bartonella spp., Borrelia burgdorferi s. l. and Rickettsia spp. The observed prevalences were 38.3% for Bartonella henselae , 5.2% for Bartonella clarridgeiae , 10.4% for B. burgdorferi s. l., 2.6% for Rickettsia helvetica and 13% for Rickettsia monacensis , respectively. No DNA of A. phagocytophilum was found. Acarological risks (AR) were calculated as probabilities of collecting at least one infected nymph per transect. The AR values calculated for the various zoonotic agents were 11.4% for R. helvetica , 27.7% for B. clarridgeiae , 49.7% for B. burgdorferi s. l., 57.2% for R. monacensis and 90.4% for B. henselae , respectively. In this study, B. clarridgeiae was for the first time identified in I. ricinus ticks.

Dietary modulation of serum platelet-derived growth factor-AB levels.

PubMed (1995)

J A Ross S. M. Davies K A Wentzlaff Deborah R. Campbell Marco Martini

Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that diets high in vegetables and fruit are associated with a decreased risk of cancer and, possibly cardiovascular disease. Certain constituents of vegetables and fruit inhibit the in vitro activity of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), a potent mitogen implicated in both cancer and cardiovascular disease. Few studies have measured PDGF in relationship to diet in vivo. Specifically, there are no data regarding the changes in PDGF levels of mitogenic activity after a dietary intervention. In this study, 19 young, healthy individuals consumed four (9-day) experimental diets in random order: (a) control diet alone; (b) control diet plus carotenoid-rich vegetables; (c) control diet plus cruciferous vegetables; and (d) control diet plus soy foods. Compared to the control diet, there was a significant elevation in PDGF-AB serum levels when the individuals were consuming the soy diet (P = 0.016). Increased PDGF-AB levels were also noted for the carotenoid diet. There was no change from baseline levels when individuals were consuming the cruciferous diet. Overall, mitogenic activity did not change on any of the experimental diets. This study suggests that high soy and carotenoid diets increase serum levels of PDGF-AB. This may represent an additional mechanism by which diet influences individual risk of cancer; further investigation into the role of diet and growth factors is warranted.
