La povertà energetica come privazione delle capacità

Moneta e Credito, 2023
La pandemia da COVID-19 e l’attuale crisi energetica hanno portato all’attenzione dei policy maker la necessità di affrontare la povertà energetica. Per contrastare efficacemente la sua crescente diffusione, è fondamentale conoscere la sua entità e i ...

Exploring the Use of Financial Data for Fuel Poverty Classifications

International Journal of Population Data Science
Introduction & Background Traditional poverty classifications rely on relatively small samples; for example, the main resource used to model fuel poverty (i.e., an inability to afford sufficient energy services) in England is the English Housing Survey (

Fairness, effectiveness, and needs satisfaction: new options for designing climate policies

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Financial compensations are often proposed to address regressive distributional impacts of carbon taxes. While financial compensations have shown to benefit vulnerable groups distributionally, little is known about their impacts on emission reduction or ...

Household Air Pollution and Respiratory Health in Rural Crete, Greece: A Cross-Sectional FRESH AIR Study

Atmosphere, 2021
Breathing polluted air is a risk to respiratory conditions. During the Greek financial crisis, the use of household fireplaces/wood stoves shifted from mostly decorative to actual domestic heating, resulting in increased indoor smoke production. We aimed

To heat or to heal: the uneasy trade-off between energy and healthcare expenditure in Central Asia

Frontiers in Political Science
The influence of housing hazards on healthcare has become a serious problem, considering the past and present implications of international energy laws. In this empirical study, energy poverty was examined to reveal its impact on health-oriented spending

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Translating whole‐genome doubling into precision medicine in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome doubling creates a WGD‐positive tumor state characterized by persistent chromosomal instability, karyotypic diversification, and cellular stress. These same biological pressures drive aggressive tumor evolution while exposing therapeutic vulnerabilities, providing a rationale for WGD‐informed precision medicine. Whole‐genome doubling (WGD)
