    Abstract Background: Prevention of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in healthcare workers (HCWs) to ensure the "Right to Occupational Safety" is a special challenge globally, as HCWs have a higher risk of acquiring the infection in hospital settings because of frequent close exposure to patients suffering from tuberculosis (TB).
    Methods: Aretrospective study was performed with the aim of assessing the prevalence of LTBI related to demographical and occupational risk factors among HCWs employed in a large hospital in Italy. The study involved 1461 HCWs screened for LTBI by Mantoux tuberculin skin test (TST) and then confirmed with Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) test in case of positivity. Immunosuppressed and BGC-vaccinated workers were tested directly with IGRA.
    Results: LTBI was diagnosed in 4.1% of the HCWs and the prevalence resulted lower than other studies conducted in low TB incidence countries. The variables significantly linked with higher frequency of the infection were: age ≥40 years (OR = 3.14; 95% CI: 1.13-8.74;
    Conclusions: screening of HCWs for LTBI should be always considered in routinely occupational surveillance in order to early diagnose the infection and prevent its progression. Safety policies in hospital settings centered on workers' training on TB prevention is crucial to minimize LTBI occurrence in HCWs.

    Abstract Enterococcal bloodstream infections (EBSI) caused by vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are associated with a significant rate of unfavorable outcomes. No definitive data have been reported about the association between delayed antibiotic therapy and mortality. In this prospective observational study in three large hospitals in Italy (from August 2016 to April 2021), all consecutive hospitalized patients with a confirmed diagnosis of hospital-acquired monomicrobial BSI caused by VRE—with no evidence of endocarditis—were analyzed. Cox regression analysis showed that risk factors independently associated with 30-day mortality were age (HR 2.98, CI95% 1.44−6.81, p = 0.002), chronic kidney disease (HR 5.21, CI95% 1.48−22.23, p = 0.001), oncologic disease (HR 2.81, CI95% 1.45−19.8, p = 0.005), and intensive care unit admission (HR 3.71, CI95% 2.23−7.99, p < 0.001). Conversely, early effective therapy was associated with survival (HR 0.32, CI95% 0.38−0.76, p < 0.001). The administration of early effective antibiotic therapy within 48 h from blood culture collection was associated with 30-day mortality rates lower than 33%. Time from blood culture collection to appropriate therapy was an independent predictor of 30-day mortality in patients with EBSI caused by VRE. Based on these data, clinicians should start effective antibiotic therapy as soon as possible, preferably within the first 48 h from blood culture collection. Treatment strategies allowing the early delivery of in vitro active antibiotics are urgently needed, especially in critically ill patients at risk of VRE bacteremia.

    Abstract Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) commonly infect the anogenital mucosa; most infections are transient, but a fraction of those caused by high-risk (HR) types persist and may lead to anogenital cancer. The epidemiology of HPV genotypes in anal infections in groups at different risk for anal cancer has not been well described in Italy. This retrospective study reports the results of HPV DNA testing and complete genotyping performed on anal swabs from 691 female and male patients attending proctology clinics in Rome during 2012-2021; one-third had repeated testing. Cumulative HPV positivity in 1212 anal swabs was approximately 60%, was not age related, and showed an increasing trend over the study period. HPV rates differed significantly by sex and HIV status: HIV-negative women had the lowest (43.6%) and HIV-positive men the highest (83.5%) HPV prevalence. HIV-positive men had more oncogenic HPV genotypes detected, more multiple infections, and the highest frequency of persistent infections. Two-thirds of all infections were vaccine-preventable. This study found that anal HPV infection rates are still elevated and even increasing in groups at low and high risk of developing anal cancer. Prevention programs need to be improved to reduce rates of anal infection in young women and men.
