“…although our study did not demonstrate any association between asthma and insomnia, such a relationship has been reported by other researchers [18][19][20]. Patients with asthma were also found to have poorer quality of sleep than the control group [19].…”

“…żołnierczyk-zreda, who reviewed literature concerning the impact of the form of an employment contract on employees' health and professional functioning, concluded that lack of permanent employment dence rate was 756 per 100,000 residents (95% ci: 748-764). a detailed analysis with regard to gender showed that both the incidence and prevalence rates were higher for women than for men -the incidence rate for women was 2.18 (95% ci: 2.10--2.26), and the prevalence rate was 2.77 (95% ci: 2.71-2.82) [20]. considering that caputo et al carried out their research in a mountain terrain, these results might have been associated with the lower level of iodine in the air.…”

Background. sleep is one of the most important physiological needs of man. it ensures health, regeneration and the concentration necessary to fulfil professional roles. Objectives. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between insomnia and selected adult chronic diseases, taking into account working conditions and employment status. Material and methods. The study involved 597 individuals, including 360 (60.3%) women and 237 (39.7%) men, as well as 396 (66.33%) employed and 201 (33.67%) unemployed subjects. The instruments used in the study were the athens insomnia scale (ais) and a self-developed sociodemographic questionnaire. Results. The most common disease was hypertension (116; 19.43%). There was a statistically significant relationship between hypertension and employment status (p ≤ 0.001), as well as between asthma/coPD and employment status (p = 0.012). coPD was more prevalent in unemployed subjects. every fourth person with hypertension suffered from insomnia. insomnia was observed in every fifth person working shifts, and one-third of them was at risk of insomnia. Conclusions. Unemployed respondents more often suffered from various diseases. The age factor and working and living conditions (contract work, shift work, unemployment) are factors contributing to the occurrence or worsening of insomnia and chronic diseases. insomnia and a lack of depth and quality of sleep can be due to the level of professional and life stress, working and living conditions, social instability and chronic diseases.

“…Less frequent are instead the forms resulting from thyroiditis, TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma, and drug-induced forms ( 22 ). In Italy, a recent study has estimated a prevalence of hyperthyroidism of 756/100,000 inhabitants with an incidence of 81 cases per year per 100,000 people ( 34 ). It must be considered that often the treatment of hyperthyroidism requires invasive interventions such as surgery and radioiodine therapy that can lead to hypothyroidism.…”

“…Depending on the type of mutation and the enzyme involved, the clinical presentation of the disease is extremely variable from severe and life-threatening forms with salt loss crises (8.8 cases/100 patients) to virilizing forms (2.5 cases/100 patients) ( 41 , 42 ). The prevalence of classic forms of CAH is about 1 case/15,000 people ( 34 ) with an annual incidence of an adrenal crisis of about 5.8 cases/100 patients ( 33 ). In Italy, a prevalence of 1 case/13,000-22,000 is estimated ( 42 ).…”

SommarioLe patologie del sistema endocrino hanno un notevole impatto dal punto di vista epidemiologico sulla salute delle popolazioni. Esse sono in grado di alterare la qualità della vita dei pazienti affetti e sono responsabili di disabilità a lungo termine; si collocano al quinto posto tra le cause di morte. In questa revisione della letteratura abbiamo valutato la prevalenza e l’incidenza delle principali malattie endocrine nel mondo e in Italia per evidenziarne il reale impatto nella pratica clinica dell’endocrinologo.
