Poor prenatal care in an urban area: a geographic analysis.

Europeans' willingness to pay for ending homelessness: A contingent valuation study.
2020
The purpose of this study is to assess the utility value European citizens put on an innovative social program aimed at reducing homelessness.

In this paper, we present three cases of guests in residences for a dependent person brought to the attention of the Institute of Forensic Medicine of the University Hospital of Palermo due to criminal proceedings, where the lack of existing d…
