Percentages represent the population within a 20-min journey by car from their residence to a radiotherapy service…

Why and how Barcelona has become a health inequalities research hub? A realist explanatory case study
Despite the increase in global research on health inequalities, more needs to be done to strengthen efforts to inform local interventions. In this article, we ask what determines the local capacity to engage in research on health inequalities. A bibliometric analysis identified Spain as the 10th highest global contributor to this research field (1966–2015), yet a significant proportion of this production was affiliated to just a few institutions …
Towards a systemic understanding of sustainable wellbeing for all in cities
We are facing socio-ecological crises and failing to meet the basic needs of everyone in society whilst living within planetary boundaries. These interconnected problems are complex, which require urgent transdisciplinary efforts informed by theories of change. How can we address this in cities in a way that is equitable and sustainable, since cities are complex, dynamic ecosystems with interdependent relationships? What processes, dynamics and d…
Improving equity using dynamic geographic accessibility data for urban health services planning
Before big data, our analysis was usually limited to testing a small number of hypotheses that we defined well before we even collected the data
What do we know about the impact of economic recessions on mortality inequalities? A critical review
Historically, there has been a debate on the effects of recessions on population health, and especially on mortality and its distribution across different social groups. This paper contributes to this discussion by means of a critical review of the research on the impact of economic recessions on mortality inequalities in the period 1980-2020. We analyzed 19 studies according to their mortality outcomes, socioeconomic indicators, design, analysis…

El rol del cuidado de la mujer en la transformación territorial representa, de forma naturalizada en la comunidad, una ampliación del espacio doméstico en el ámbito de desarrollo comunitario. Para comprender esto, se llevó a cabo una investigación cualitativa en contextos de desigualdad a partir de la experiencia de ocho mujeres profesionales con edades comprendidas entre los treinta y ocho y los sesenta y dos años, madres y cabezas de familia, c…
The case for planetary health prevention
The lack of preparedness and the adoption of a reactive approach underlie many mistakes in handling the COVID-19 pandemic. We need a vision with a proactive approach to planetary health prevention, that is suited for addressing the neglected systemic determinants of health which generate disease, inequality and environmental degradation, and capable of anticipating known and unknown risks, and foreseeing possible threatening scenarios. To achieve…

A Qualitative Study of the Health Perceptions in the Venezuelan Immigrant Population in Medellín (Colombia) and Its Conditioning Factors
This study explored the general and oral health perceptions in the Venezuelan immigrant population in Medellín (Colombia) and its conditioning factors. A qualitative study involving Venezuelan immigrants ≥18 years with a minimum stay of six months in Colombia was conducted. Dentists, dental students, and other health professionals also participated. Semi-structured interviews ( n = 17), focus groups ( n = 2), and key informants' interviews ( n = …
Grassroots innovation practices for social transformation of the health and well‐being in a self‐built settlement in Medellín‐Colombia
Grassroots innovation generates possibilities for the informal and collective production of the territory that the city itself denies, from bottom-up solutions for sustainable development and consumption, which respond to the local situation, interests, and values of the communities involved. This paper aims to identify how grassroots innovation practices take place and are shaped in 'El Faro', a self-built settlement at the urban border of the c…
Urban Transformations and Health
Background: Cable cars provide urban mobility benefits for vulnerable populations. However, no evaluation has assessed cable cars' impact from a health perspective. TransMiCable in Bogotá, Colombia, provides a unique opportunity to 1) assess the effects of its implementation on the environmental and social determinants of health (microenvironment pollution, transport accessibility, physical environment, employment, social capital, and leisure tim…
Slum Health
The informal settlements of the Global South are the least prepared for the pandemic of COVID-19 since basic needs such as water, toilets, sewers, drainage, waste collection, and secure and adequate housing are already in short supply or non-existent. Further, space constraints, violence, and overcrowding in slums make physical distancing and self-quarantine impractical, and the rapid spread of an infection highly likely. Residents of informal se…
