Disparities in primary cardiovascular risks and social determinants
Inequalities in social determinants hinder effective CVD risk prevention. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify ten-year CVD risk in Brunei Darussalam and Iraq and identify associated individual- and community-level factors to improve targeted prevention efforts. Data were from the WHO STEPS national surveys, including 971 participants from Brunei Darussalam and 1,715 from Iraq, aged 40–69. The ten-year CVD risk was calculated using the WHO-201…
Dietary intakes, food behaviours and health indicators among Métis youth in Manitoba, Canada
Objective: Poor diets and food insecurity during adolescence can have long-lasting effects, and Métis youth may be at higher risk. This study, as part of the Food and Nutrition Security for Manitoba Youth study, examines dietary intakes, food behaviours and health indicators of Métis compared with non-Métis youth. Design: This observational cross-sectional study involved a cohort of adolescents who completed a self-administered web-based survey o…
Measuring what matters
Increasing countries’ access to data can improve immunisation coverage through evidence-based decision-making. However, data collection and reporting is resource-intensive, so needs to be pragmatic, especially in low-and-middle-income countries. We aimed to identify which indicators are most important for measuring, and improving, national immunisation performance in Pacific Island Countries (PICs). We conducted an expert elicitation study, askin…
The Impact of Climate Change on Aeromedical Retrieval Services in Remote Northern Australia
It is known that environmental heat is associated with increased morbidity manifesting as increasing demand on acute care health services including pre-hospital transport and emergency departments. These services play a vital role in emergency care, and in rural and remote locations, where resource capacity is limited, aeromedical and other retrieval services are a vital part of healthcare delivery. There is no research examining how heat impacts…
Healthy minds live in healthy bodies – effect of physical health on mental health
It is well known that physical and mental health are closely related, with growing evidence for biological and behavioural pathways. Mostly the research has focussed on mental health as the key driver of this inter-connection; the extent physical health shapes mental health has received less attention. We aim to derive robust estimates of the unique role physical health may play in shaping mental health outcomes. To do so we use a novel approach,…
Does Participation in Full-Time Kindergarten Improve Metis Students’ School Outcomes? A Longitudinal Population-Based Study from Manitoba, Canada
This study, a partnership between and , investigated whether attending full-time kindergarten (FTK) was associated with better educational outcomes for Metis students in Manitoba, who may face unique barriers to academic success. We utilized linked administrative data from the Manitoba Population Research Data Repository. For each measured education outcome, there were no significant differences in how Metis students who attended FTK vs Metis stu…
Food Behaviours and Health Indicators in Manitoba Adolescents and Relation to the Healthy Eating Index
Adolescence is a vital period of growth and development, both of which are dependent on adequate nutrition; however, concerns persist about poor nutrition and inappropriate food behaviours. In addition to nutrition assessment, the context of food and health behaviour is necessary to understand how dietary choices are shaped and related to diet quality. This study describes food-related behaviours and health indicators associated with dietary qual…
The Impact of Covid-19 on Maternal Mental Health during Pregnancy
The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on maternal mental health has been described in Canada and China but no study has compared the two countries using the same standardized and validated instruments. In this study, we aimed to evaluate and compare the impact of COVID-19 public health policies on maternal mental health between Canada and China, as we hypothesize that geographical factors and different COVID-19 policies are likely to influence mate…
The Covid-19 Pandemic Impacted Maternal Mental Health Differently Depending on Pregnancy Status and Trimester of Gestation
Introduction: We aimed to measure the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on maternal mental health, stratifying on pregnancy status, trimester of gestation, and pandemic period/wave. Methods: Pregnant persons and persons who delivered in Canada during the pandemic, >18 years, were recruited, and data were collected using a web-based strategy. The current analysis includes data on persons enrolled between 06/2020−08/2021. Maternal sociodemographic in…

An unconditional prenatal cash benefit is associated with improved birth and early childhood outcomes for Metis families in Manitoba, Canada
A cash benefit was associated with better birth outcomes for low-income Metis families. • Among families who received the benefit, there were fewer low birth weight and preterm births. • Children in families who received the benefit were more likely to be fully vaccinated by age 2. In Manitoba, low-income pregnant women are eligible for the Healthy Baby Prenatal Benefit (HBPB), which provides up to CAD $81.41/month during the second and third tri…
Differential effects of a school‐based obesity prevention program
School-based healthy living interventions are widely promoted as strategies for preventing obesity. The peer-led Healthy BuddiesTM curriculum has been shown to improve obesity-related outcomes in school-aged children. We examined whether these improvements existed among subgroups of children stratified by sex, income level and urban/rural geography. In a cluster-randomized controlled trial, elementary schools in Manitoba, Canada, were randomly al…
The association of a paraprofessional home visiting intervention with lower child maltreatment rates in First Nation families in Canada
Fixed Nodes of Transience
Discourse in popular media, public policy, and academic literature contends that people who are homeless frequently make inappropriate use of hospital emergency department (ED) services. Although researchers have investigated the ED experiences of people who are homeless, no previous studies have examined how this population understands the role of the ED in their health care and in their day-to-day lives. In the present study, 16 individuals par…
Postpartum Depression and Anxiety Among Mothers Whose Child was Placed in Care of Child Protection Services at Birth
Families First Home Visiting programme reduces population-level child health and social inequities
BACKGROUND: Home visiting has been shown to reduce child maltreatment and improve child health outcomes. In this observational study, we explored whether Families First, a home visiting programme in Manitoba, Canada, decreased population-level inequities in children being taken into care of child welfare and receiving complete childhood immunisations. METHODS: De-identified administrative health and social services data for children born 2003-200…
Maternal health and social outcomes after having a child taken into care
BACKGROUND: We investigated whether mothers experience changes to their health and social situation after having a child taken into care by child protection services, then compared these outcomes with those found in mothers whose children were not taken into care. METHODS: The cohort includes mothers whose first child was born in Manitoba between 1 April 1998 and 31 March 2011. Mothers whose children were taken into care after age 2 (n=1591) were…
Teen clinics
The highest rates for pregnancies and STIs were observed among non-enrolled adolescents. Although provision of reproductive and health services to in-school adolescents should remain a priority, program planning and design should consider optimal strategies to engage out of school youth

Pressure Ulcers Among Newly Admitted Nursing Home Residents
OBJECTIVES: Pressure ulcers (PUs) are reported more often among newly admitted nursing home (NH) residents who transfer from hospital versus community. We examine for whom this increased risk is greatest, further defining hospitalized patients most in need of better PU preventive care. RESEARCH DESIGN: Retrospective observational cohort study. SUBJECTS: All NH residents (N=5617) newly admitted between April 1, 2008 and March 31, 2012 in Winnipeg,…

Does a pay-for-performance program for primary care physicians alleviate health inequity in childhood vaccination rates
The P4P program had a limited impact on vaccination rates and did not address health inequity
Can opportunities be enhanced for vaccinating children in home visiting programs? A population-based cohort study
Home visiting programs have the potential to increase vaccination rates for children enrolled, despite limited program content directed towards this end. Evidence-based program enhancements have the potential to increase these rates further, however more research is needed to inform policy makers of optimal approaches in this regard, especially with respect to cost-effectiveness
Early Childhood Is Overrated—a Life Course Perspective Using Siblings and Populations
Purpose/Rationale for the project How important are early childhood predictors in the presence of later childhood and early adolescent predictors when examining several late adolescent health and education outcomes? How well do the models work? A sibling design examines a set of time-varying predictors on two health outcomes (ADHD/Conduct Disorders, asthma) between ages 14 and 18 and one education outcome (failure to graduate high school), contro…
