Co-developing an inclusive interprofessional health workforce minimum data standard for enhanced planning and decision-making
BACKGROUND: Comprehensive and standardized health workforce data are the foundation of more robust planning and evidence-informed decision-making in the face of multiple crises. OBJECTIVE: This paper describes the process, results, and lessons learned in co-developing an inclusive, interprofessional health workforce minimum data standard (MDS) for planning. METHODS: A four-phase development process was undertaken: 1) we gathered existing data sta…

Evaluation of Survey Nonresponse in Measuring Cardiometabolic Health Risk Factors and Outcomes among Sexual Minority Populations
Understanding cardiometabolic health among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) people is challenged by methodological constraints, as most studies are either based on nonprobability samples or assume that missing values in population-based samples occur at random. Linking multiple years of nationally representative surveys, hospital records, and geocoded data, we analyzed selection biases and health disparities by self-identified sexual orientation …
Comparative Study of Micro Insurance Products
Micro Insurance in India is beginning from the financial institutions’ activities i.e., they hedge their own risks while lending to the poor under the requirements of direct lending. In India, Micro Insurance is guaranteed through poverty alleviation programs by the Government. These programs are built into the credit package as compulsory elements to the development of the unorganized sector. Both the life and General insurance companies have is…
Reduced Risk of Hospitalization With Stronger Community Belonging Among Aging Canadians Living With Diabetes
Background: Social isolation has been identified as a substantial health concern in aging populations, associated with adverse chronic disease outcomes and health inequalities; however, little is known about the interconnections between social capital, diabetes management, and hospital burdens. This study aimed to assess the role of community belonging with the risk of potentially avoidable hospitalization among aging adults living with diabetes …
Gendering Neighbourhood Marginalization Metrics in Mental Health Services Research
Background: Little is known about the extent to which socioenvironmental characteristics may influence mental health outcomes in smaller population centres or differently among women and men. This study used a gender-based analysis approach to explore individual- and neighbourhood-level sex differences in mental health service use in a context of uniquely smaller urban and rural settlements. Methods: This cross-sectional analysis leveraged multip…
Healthcare Service Use for Mood and Anxiety Disorders Following Acute Myocardial Infarction
Depression and other mood and anxiety disorders are recognized as common complications following cardiac events. Some studies report poorer cardiac outcomes among patients in socioeconomically marginalized neighbourhoods. This study aimed to describe associations between socioeconomic and built environment characteristics of neighbourhood environments and mental health service contacts following an acute myocardial infarction (AMI or heart attack…
Individual and community-level income and the risk of diabetes rehospitalization among women and men
Background Marked disparities by socioeconomic status in the risk of potentially avoidable hospitalization for chronic illnesses have been observed in many contexts, including those with universal health coverage. Less well known is how gender mediates such differences. We conducted a population-based cohort study to describe associations between household and community-level income and rehospitalizations for types 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus among…
Disparities in the hospital cost of cardiometabolic diseases among lesbian, gay, and bisexual Canadians
Countdown to 2015 decade report (2000–10)
Taking advantage of the 2010 population census round to strengthen the global evidence base on the health workforce
There is an increasing body of evidence of a strong correlation between the density of trained health workers in a country and improved population health outcomes. Yet many countries lack sufficient numbers and equitable distribution of skilled health workers to deliver essential health interventions, such as immunization and skilled attendance at delivery. The World Health Organization estimates that there are 57 countries, mostly located in sub…
Female Sterilization in Latin America
Fertility levels have dropped substantially in Latin America in recent decades, fuelled by increased contraceptive use and notably a method mix skewed towards female sterilization. This study examined choice of female sterilization in four Latin American countries: Brazil, Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Peru. Data were drawn from national Demographic and Health Surveys conducted in 1995–1996. Discrete-time hazard models were used on the fiv…
Uses of population census data for monitoring geographical imbalance in the health workforce
BACKGROUND: Imbalance in the distribution of human resources for health (HRH), eventually leading to inequities in health services delivery and population health outcomes, is an issue of social and political concern in many countries. However, the empirical evidence to support decision-making is often fragmented, and many standard data sources that can potentially produce statistics relevant to the issue remain underused, especially in developing…
Associations of Mass Media Exposure with Family Planning Attitudes and Practices in Uganda
This study examines the associations between multimedia behavior change communication (BCC) campaigns and women's and men's use of and intention to use modern contraceptive methods in target areas of Uganda. Data are drawn primarily from the 1997 and 1999 Delivery of Improved Services for Health (DISH) evaluation surveys, which collected information from representative samples of women and men of reproductive age in the districts served by the DI…
Sexual Initiation Among Adolescent Girls and Boys
Adolescent childbearing in sub-Saharan Africa
This article examines whether increased years of schooling exercised a consistent impact on delayed childbearing in sub-Saharan Africa. Data were drawn from Demographic and Health Surveys conducted in eight countries over the period 1987-1999. Multiple
Sexual Initiation and Contraceptive Use Among Adolescent Women in Northeast Brazil
To estimate trends and determinants of sexual initiation and contraceptive use among adolescent women in Northeast Brazil, multivariate logistic hazard models are used that draw on data from three Demographic and Health Surveys conducted there between 1986 and 1996. Educational attainment is among the variables found to be associated most consistently with differential risk of engaging in first intercourse during adolescence, including premarital…
