Ending nuclear weapons, before they end us
Climate action for health
Climate change, attributable to human activity, is increasingly contributing to a global health crisis. The scale, nature and timing of adverse effects on physical and mental health, via direct and indirect pathways, vary within and between regions but there are common challenges that can be tackled by better integrated mitigation and adaptation actions. The actions described in this paper would have benefits for health if appropriately implement…
The effectiveness of community health worker training, equipping, and deployment in reducing Covid-19 infections and deaths in rural Western Kenya
COVID-19 and other pandemics remain significant threats to population health, particularly in rural settings where health systems are disproportionately weak. There is a lack of evidence on whether trained, equipped, and deployed community health workers (CHWs) can lead to significant reductions in COVID-19 infections and deaths. Our objective was to measure the effectiveness of deploying trained and equipped CHWs in reducing COVID-19 infections …
The Lancet Commission on lessons for the future from the Covid-19 pandemic
Leveraging latent assets to strengthen the Covid-19 response and vaccine roll-out in Africa
Exercise training is an essential component of pulmonary rehabilitation and is associated with improved function and other important outcomes in persons with chronic lung disease. A subset of pulmonary rehabilitation patients experience hypoxemia that may occur or worsen with exercise. For the purpose of this review, severe exercise-induced hypoxemia is defined as an S pO 2 of < 89% during exercise, despite use of supplemental oxygen delivered at…
Emerging from Covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has required health protection responses with far-reaching consequences for society, livelihoods, and the wider economy. Future enquiries will in time evaluate the success of responses at all scales. But emerging lessons highlight immediate implications for addressing the growing climate crisis through a recovery from COVID-19 that advances population health, economic regeneration and climate action. \n \nCities are where ma…
Projections of temperature-related excess mortality under climate change scenarios
BACKGROUND: Climate change can directly affect human health by varying exposure to non-optimal outdoor temperature. However, evidence on this direct impact at a global scale is limited, mainly due to issues in modelling and projecting complex and highly heterogeneous epidemiological relationships across different populations and climates. METHODS: We collected observed daily time series of mean temperature and mortality counts for all causes or n…
Dietary patterns and non-communicable disease risk in Indian adults
Objective Undernutrition and non-communicable disease (NCD) are important public health issues in India, yet their relationship with dietary patterns is poorly understood. The current study identified distinct dietary patterns and their association with micronutrient undernutrition (Ca, Fe, Zn) and NCD risk factors (underweight, obesity, waist:hip ratio, hypertension, total:HDL cholesterol, diabetes). Design Data were from the cross-sectional Ind…

Public health benefits of strategies to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions
Achieving child survival goals
Skinfold thickness, body mass index, and fatal coronary heart disease
Study objective: To examine the effect of baseline body mass index (BMI) and skinfold thickness (ST) on fatal coronary heart disease (CHD) and all cause mortality after 30 years of follow up. Design: Prospective cohort study. Setting: Northwick Park heart study (NPHS) designed to investigate the role of haemostatic variables on CHD. Participants: 1511 men and 691 women enrolled in NPHS aged 40 to 64 years at entry. Main results: Baseline BMI (kg/…
Overcoming health-systems constraints to achieve the Millennium Development Goals
Sustainable energy, economic growth and public health
Dramatic economic growth over the last 50 years has been accompanied by widening inequalities world-wide in wealth and energy consumption, diminished life expectancy in some countries, and deteriorating indices of environmental sustainability including loss of bio-diversity. Raised output of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases due to increased economic and industrial activity is causing progressive climate change, leading in turn to d…
