Self-reported and objectively-determined neighborhood built characteristics are associated with walking. This study investigated whether associations between the neighborhood built environment features and neighborhood walkability Index varied by sociodemographic and health-related characteristics. A random sample number of 385 adults (male=162, female=222) completed postal questionnaire capturing neighborhood walkability, socio-demographic characteristics, walking attitudes, and health-related characteristics (BMI).

Questo manoscritto di revisione presenta informazioni effettive sulle strutture sportive, sulla loro progettazione e sull'impatto che potrebbero avere sulla salute umana. Sulla base delle attuali norme e regolamenti sanitari e igienici, gli autori descrivono i tipi di impianti sportivi, danno la loro classificazione in base all'uso designato, sottolineano le peculiarità della sistemazione degli impianti sportivi in ​​Italia e Russia. Particolare attenzione è rivolta alla necessità di soddisfare i requisiti igienici durante la costruzione e la manutenzione di impianti sportivi.

The present study focused on 11-nor-9carboxy-Δ9-THC (THC-COOH) and Benzoylecgonine (BE), the most common metabolites of cannabis and cocaine, respectively, present in the domestic sewage entering the wastewater treatment plants. The aims of the study were: (1) to validate the analytical method of detection in wastewater and sludge; (2) to determine contribution of biodegradation and other processes to the removal in the biological reactor of the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and the response of biomass to different drug concentrations.

The wide diffusion of Emerging Organic Micropollutants (EOMs) in the environment is receiving increasing attention due to their potential toxicological effects on living organisms. So far, the Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) have not been designed with the purpose to remove these contaminants; therefore, they can represent the major source of release into the environment both through the effluent and the wasted sludge.
