Hospital variations in caesarean delivery rates
Background: The impact of China's use of caesarean delivery on global public health has been a long-term concern. The number of private hospitals is increasing in China and likely driving up caesarean delivery rates, yet specifics remain unknown. We aimed to investigate variations in caesarean delivery rates across and within hospital types in China. Methods: We retrieved data on hospital characteristics and national hospital-level annually aggre…

Regional Variation in Family Support for the Elderly in China
The author examines the impact of rapid social change and economic development on family support for older parents in contemporary urban China.

Examining Distance Effects on Hospitalizations Using GIS
We examine travel distance and its effect on total and on avoidable hospitalizations, using data from three health regions in British Columbia, Canada. We conceptualize distance to hospital in geographic and socioeconomic contexts from the care seeker's perspective, and develop a GIS procedure to generate variables for these contexts. The procedure includes geocoding hospital locations and patient locations to determine travel distance for each h…
