Persistent socioeconomic and ethnic inequalities in unmet need for NCD diagnosis and treatment in Viet Nam, 2015–2021
Large gaps in the detection and treatment of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) persist globally, particularly in low- and middle-income countries progressing toward universal health coverage. Despite expanded insurance and primary care reforms, the magnitude and equity of unmet NCD care needs in Viet Nam remain unclear. We analyzed nationally representative WHO STEPS surveys in 2015 (n = 1,300) and 2021 (n = 2,276) to assess unmet need for diagnosi…
Nutritional Practices Among Ethnic Minority High School Students in Mountainous Regions, Vietnam
Our study shows a comprehensive picture of malnutrition among children in ethnic minority areas. Essential nutritional intervention programs, projects, and models are a top priority to reduce the disease burden for children's bright future and to enhance socio-economic development in the mountainous regions of Vietnam
Comorbidities of diabetes and hypertension in Vietnam
The high comorbidity between hypertension and diabetes underscores the imperative for integrated treatment and management approaches in Vietnam. Coordinated care is essential for addressing the complex interplay between these two prevalent conditions
Prevalence of internet addiction and anxiety, and factors associated with the high level of anxiety among adolescents in Hanoi, Vietnam during the Covid-19 pandemic
The prevalence of internet addiction and high level of anxiety were high among adolescents in Hanoi, Vietnam during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study highlights the importance of implementing measures at the family and school levels to promote a balanced and healthy approach to smart device use among adolescents
Trend of metabolic risk factors among the population aged 25–64 years for non-communicable diseases over time in Vietnam
Introduction: The study aims to examine the trends of 4 metabolic NCDs risk factors including raised blood pressure, increased blood glucose, elevated blood lipids and overweight/obesity over the last 10 years in Vietnam as well as examine these trends among different sub-population by geographical area, gender, and age groups. Methods: The study combined the national representative data from three rounds of STEPs survey in Vietnam conducted in 2…
Rural Hospital Closures
BACKGROUND: Access to health care continues to be a challenge, especially in remote areas. Since 2013, 70 rural hospitals have closed in the United States further exacerbating barriers to health care access in rural areas. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to identify the impact of rural hospital closures on total medical spending and utilization among the commercially insured rural population. RESEARCH DESIGN: We use a pre-post study des…
Health financial hardship among ethnic minority populations in Vietnam
This study was conducted to report the prevalence of financial hardship and identify associated factors among ethnic minority populations in Vietnam. In 2019, we conducted a cross-sectional study of 5,033 ethnic minority participants from 12 provinces located in four socioeconomic regions in Vietnam. Financial hardship was measured by asking the study respondents if they had to borrow money, sell household assets, or stop using health care servic…
Spatial analysis of designated outdoor smoking areas
Smoking is the leading cause of premature death in Canada. Smoking also pollutes air and generates litter such as cigarette butts. The use of designated smoking areas (DSAs) is increasingly popular on university campuses and has the potential to influence smoking prevalence. It is however found that the related regulations and policies are largely unknown. This study systematically examines the spatial distribution of DSAs at 12 Canadian campuses…
The use of a recurrent neural network model with separated time-series and lagged daily inputs for waste disposal rates modeling during Covid-19
Sexual and reproductive health communication between parents and high school adolescents in Vientiane Prefecture, Lao PDR
BACKGROUND: Adolescent health has become a priority on the global health agenda. Parent-adolescent communication regarding sexual and reproductive health (SRH) issues can help to reduce adolescent risk-taking sexual behaviours.

Relationship between family functioning and health-related quality of life among methadone maintenance patients
Comparison between Canadian and Nova Scotian waste management and diversion models—A Canadian case study
Use of modern contraceptives among married women in Vietnam
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of modern contraceptive use is an important indicator that reflects accessibility to reproductive health services. Satisfying unmet needs for family planning alone could reduce the number of maternal deaths by almost a third. This study uses multiple data sources to examine multilevel factors associated with the use of modern contraceptives among married women in Vietnam aged 15-49 years. DESIGN: Data from different nat…

An analysis of interprovincial migration in Vietnam from 1989 to 2009
Background: In Vietnam, reports either present general patterns of internal migration or the migration characteristics of specific subgroups. Reports are often based on small numbers and do not examine the relationships between socioeconomic factors and migration. Different reports classify migrant populations differently, presenting difficulties for researchers and policymakers to gain a consistent picture of migration (particularly of interprov…

Neighbourhood Contexts and Low Birthweight
Social contexts and children's health outcomes
While significant progress has been made on several fronts in child health research in recent years, research findings have not always been readily translated to better policies and programs for creating healthy conditions for children. Child health policies and research have not always aligned in a manner that would inform each other to the benefit of children. In this paper it is argued that child health research and interventions need to proce…
