TL;DR: Data analysis shows that parents are, theoretically, favourable towards vaccinations but have little knowledge of such practices, sometimes not being unaware of the types of vaccines administrated to their children, and that health education of parents is the cornerstone on which the public health should build the fight to the vaccine hesitancy and improve the vaccination coverages.

TL;DR: Based on the physical and chemical features of MWCNTs, several toxicological pathways could be activated in respiratory epithelium upon their inhalation and the biological impacts of nano-needles were imputable to their efficient and very fast uptake and to the resulting mechanical damages in cell compartments.

TL;DR: The results underlined the potential onset of neurodegenerative diseases, due to unintentional MWCNT exposure, and the almost superimposable pro-oxidant activity of both CNTs could be imputable to excessive lengths with regard to the pristine M WCNTs and to the eroded surface, causing increased reactivity.

TL;DR: The authors' results showed greater oxidative damage in HPV‐related dysplastic cervical lesions compared to samples with normal cytology, especially in women with high‐grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, which could facilitate the integration of the virus, promoting HPV carcinogenesis.

TL;DR: Results improve the knowledge of the pathogenic role that airborne metals and in particular V exerted in respiratory epithelium and specifically p53 involvement and metabolic impairment through changes in HIF-1α and Glut-1 expression were determined.
