Bio-psycho-social frailty can negatively affect the health status of an ageing population. The integration between community nurses and social services can emphasize community care and prevent the onset of both health and social negative outcomes in the older population. The aim of the paper is to explore the causal association through the analysis of the hospitalization and mortality rate after a pro-active social service integrated by the community nurse. A nested case-control study comparing groups of older adults has been carried out. Methods. The paper compares data stem from a cohort followed up by the University of Rome "Tor Vergata" with data from the "Long Live the Elderly!" program (LLE) cohort. One-year standardized mortality rate was 6.5%, 4.7% and 7.5% in the control group, the LLE group and the LLE group integrated by the community nurse (LLE-CN), respectively. One-year hospitalization rate was 15.4%, 15.5% and 10.8% in the control group, the LLE group and the LLE-CN group, respectively. According to our results a social service with a pro-active approach, integrated by the community nurse, appears to be able to reduce mortality and hospitalization in a group of older adults aged>75. The multidimensional assessment of frailty stands for the first step of a new organization of community services. 75. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Glycyrrhizic-Acid.html The multidimensional assessment of frailty stands for the first step of a new organization of community services. The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an educational intervention promoting adherence to healthy diet and physical activity. Before-after interventional study. Participants were healthy volunteers, 18-70 y old, from Bologna. They followed a training course consisting of seven meetings and signed a contract to comply with the promoted habits, verified through questionnaires at the engagement phase (T0), three months later (T1) and one year later (T2). One hundred, fifty-three subjects were involved, 75.8% were evaluated at T1 and 41.2% at T2. More than 80% of the subjects involved at T1 achieved an improvement of planned goals. Moreover, 77% of T1 compliants retained healthy eating and physical activity at T2. The proposed pathway of empowerment positively affected nutrition and promotion of physical activity at 3 months after the intervention (T1) and were maintained even after a year. The results appear to be promising for primary prevention across the spectrum of a healthy lifestyle educational approach.

Prison is an especially difficult environment for promoting oral health and leads to the exacerbation of unhealthy behaviors. This study set out to assess the impact of incarceration on nutritional status and oral health among the male prison inmates of Central Jail of Jaipur city, Rajasthan, India. A cross sectional study was conducted among 181 male inmates. Dental caries and periodontal status were assessed by using modified the Decayed Missing Filled Teeth (DMFT) index and Community Periodontal Index (CPI) and Loss of Attachment (LOA) index as per the WHO methodology 1997. Nutritional status was assessed by Body Mass Index (BMI) and weight (kg)/height (m2). Out of 181 inmates, 141 (77.90%) had normal BMI. The majority (n=128, 70.70%) of inmates were incarcerated for less than 6 years. A significant difference (P<0.05) was found between age and periodontal status. A significant difference was observed (P<0.05) in the CPI score 3 and LOA 0 and 1 score. However, no significant difference (P>0.05) was observed in DMFT and period of incarceration. Age was the significant (P<0.001) risk factor for CPI and LOA. Dental caries and periodontal health deteriorates with age and period of incarceration. Oral hygiene maintenance along with comprehensive oral care can be accomplished by establishing dental care facilities in prisons.

Entry into prison involves adapting to a prison culture that is sometimes altered by the effect of imprisonment. Prisons are overcrowded and hold large numbers of inmates suffering from mental disorders and difficulties of adaptation, who affect the delicate equilibrium of the prison environment and can worsen the relational climate. Several bibliographical databases on the influence of the mental health of adult inmates on the prison relationship climate and existing interventions in this regard that have been published in the last 15 years were reviewed. This data was complemented by other information obtained from the online bibliographic indexes of the Ministry of the Interior. There is little literature on the influence of mental health on the relational climate of prisons and existing interventions. However, what literature there is does respond to a current prison reality where inmates with mental health problems have an increased risk of victimization and also a greater predisposition to penitentiary misconduct that causes violations of rules and the consequent application of disciplinary sanctions that lead to segregation. The dysfunctional behaviour of such inmates, as well as the stigmatized treatment they receive, negatively impact the prison social climate, generating pathological relational styles and distorting the prison environment. This creates a need for an adequate number of programs and interventions of sufficient quality to prevent and mitigate their consequences.
