“…These combined habits are often related to work presenteeism, perhaps as a misguided coping strategy to deal with work stress. This association could indirectly indicate employee job stress, so companies should build appropriate strategies and programmes to help reduce these behaviours [ 28 ]. Other determinants, such as dietary habits, were investigated by different research groups.…”

The study aimed to investigate the tobacco smoking prevalence, habits and awareness among a cohort of healthcare students from a university hospital in southern Italy and the associations with socio-demographic determinants. A secondary outcome was to estimate the educational needs to receive information on smoking-related risk factors. Five hundred and forty-nine students completed a self-administered questionnaire (180 male and 369 female, average age 25 yo, ±5.9 SD), enrolled from October 2018 to November 2019 at the University of Naples ‘Luigi Vanvitelli’, and the collected data were analysed by descriptive and inferential statistical analysis. The sample’s prevalence of current smokers was 25.3%, without a significant sex difference. The multiple logistic regression model showed the link between smoking habits and alcoholic beverage consumption (p < 0.001) and living with smokers (p = 0.003). The enrolled cohort does not seem to need more information about the risks of cigarette smoking (p = 0.028). The data analysis and the comparison with the current literature allowed the authors to hypothesise a training model to be adopted within a workplace health promotion programme managed by an occupational physician. This model included targeted training for smoking dissuasion, focusing on sex and gender, cohabitant’s influence, and combined addiction management. Further research will focus on the effectiveness of these proposed models.

“…Idiopathic short stature (ISS) accounts for a significant majority, approximately 80%, of all cases of short stature. [ 3 ] To be diagnosed with ISS, individuals must undergo thorough evaluations to exclude systemic diseases, nutritional deficiencies, psychiatric disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, and overt hormonal imbalances. Additionally, their height must be more than 2 standard deviations (SDs) below the mean height for their age and sex, with no evidence of underlying systemic, chromosomal, nutritional, psychological, or hormonal disorders.…”

Idiopathic short stature (ISS) is a common childhood condition with largely unknown underlying causes. Recent research highlights the role of circulating exosomes in the pathogenesis of various disorders, but their connection to ISS remains unexplored. In the experiments, human chondrocytes are cocultured with plasma exosomes from ISS patients, leading to impaired chondrocyte growth and bone formation. Elevated levels of a specific long non‐coding RNA (lncRNA), ISSRL, are identified as a distinguishing factor in ISS, boasting high specificity and sensitivity. Silencing ISSRL in ISS plasma exosomes reverses the inhibition of chondrocyte proliferation and bone formation. Conversely, overexpression of ISSRL in chondrocytes impedes their growth and bone formation, revealing its mechanism of action through the miR‐877‐3p/GZMB axis. Subsequently, exosomes (CT‐Exo‐siISSRL‐oeGH) with precise cartilage‐targeting abilities are engineered, loaded with customized siRNA for ISSRL and growth hormone. This innovative approach offers a therapeutic strategy to address ISS by rectifying abnormal non‐coding RNA expression in growth plate cartilage and delivering growth hormone with precision to promote bone growth. This research provides valuable insights into ISS diagnosis and treatment, highlighting the potential of engineered exosomes.
