Reflections and trajectories for interdisciplinary research on the energy transition by Cesare Sposito, Francesca Scalisi

“…From the published contributions, it emerges the need for a paradigm shift that, on the one hand, is characterised by a ‘sufficiency’ approach (regarding new land occupation and new constructions) and a circular economy (to limit the use of non-renewable resources) capable of exploiting the potential of technologies for the new services made possible by digitisation, and on the other hand, relies on new user awareness of the limits of the Planet, pursuable through ‘soft’ urgent actions that are robust, flexible and easy to implement as they require a lower financial commitment. We assume that community energy renewable energy production from hydrogen and production chains can help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. …”

Factors Affecting Influenza and Pneumococcal Vaccination Rates in Hemodialysis Patients: A Multicenter Study by Selen T, Merhametsiz Ö, Öneç K, Ercan Z, İslam M, Altun G, Pınar M, Demir ME

“…In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, dialysis duration and education level were identified as independent factors predicting a higher level of knowledge about the pneumococcal vaccine (p=0.038, 0.040, and p=0.010).Conclusion: It was observed that awareness and vaccination rates regarding influenza and pneumococcal vaccines were lower in our patients than recommended. We believe that educating patients about vaccines and increasing the sensitivity of hemodialysis physicians, nurses and nephrologists on this issue will increase vaccination rates.Keywords: hemodialysis, influenza, pneumococcal pneumonia, vaccine…”
