    Open AccessMelissa Perri, Amy Craig-Neil et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2021

    PLWH face significant barriers when attempting to engage with employment opportunities. Health providers and organizations can do more to support campaigns to end HIV stigma, to support individuals in pursuing employment, and to advocate for policy change that supports reentry into the workforce for PLHA

  • Exploratory study of “real world” implementation of a clinical poverty tool in diverse family medicine and pediatric care settings

    Open AccessEva Purkey, Imaan Bayoumi et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2019

    Poverty screening is important and acceptable to clinicians and patients. However, multiple barriers need to be addressed to allow for successful implementation of poverty screening and intervention in health care settings

  • Teaching the Social Determinants of Health

    Malika Sharma, Andrew D Pinto et al.ARTICLEAcademic Medicine2018

    Medical schools are increasingly called to include social responsibility in their mandates. As such, they are focusing their attention on the social determinants of health (SDOH) as key drivers in the health of the patients and communities they serve. However, underlying this emphasis on the SDOH is the assumption that teaching medical students about the SDOH will lead future physicians to take action to help achieve health equity. There is littl…

  • Better Health

    Open AccessLawrence Paszat, Rinku Sutradhar et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    NCT03052959, registered February 10, 2017

  • Economic considerations and health in all policies initiatives

    Open AccessAndrew D Pinto, Ágnes Molnár et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    Our results are useful for elaborating propositions for use in realist multiple explanatory case studies. First, we propose that economic considerations are currently used primarily as a method by health sectors to promote and legitimize HiAP to non-health sectors with the goal of securing resources for HiAP. Second, allocating resources and making funding decisions regarding HiAP are inherently political acts that reflect tensions within governm…

  • A case study of global health at the university

    Open AccessAndrew D Pinto, Donald C Cole et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2014

    BACKGROUND: Global health is increasingly a major focus of institutions in high-income countries. However, little work has been done to date to study the inner workings of global health at the university level. Academics may have competing objectives, with few mechanisms to coordinate efforts and pool resources. OBJECTIVE: To conduct a case study of global health at Canada's largest health sciences university and to examine how its internal organ…

  • Equity in public health standards

    Open AccessAndrew D Pinto, Heather Manson et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2012

    This study contributes to understanding how health equity is conceptualized and incorporated into standards for local public health. As reflected in their policies, both provinces have embraced the importance of reducing health inequities. Both concepualized this process as rooted in structural injustices and the social determinants of health. Differences in the conceptualization of health equity likely reflect contextual influences on the public…

  • An agent–vector–host–environment model for controlling small arms and light weapons

    Andrew D Pinto, Malika Sharma et al.ARTICLEMedicine Conflict & Survival2011

    Armed violence is a significant public health problem. It results in fatal and non-fatal injuries and disrupts social and economic processes that are essential to the health of individuals and communities. We argue that an agent-vector-host-environment model can be helpful in understanding and describing the availability and misuse of small arms and light weapons. Moreover, such a model can assist in identifying potential control points and in de…

  • Global Health Ethics for Students

    Open AccessAndrew D Pinto, Ross Upshur et al.ARTICLEDeveloping World Bioethics2009

    As a result of increased interest in global health, more and more medical students and trainees from the ‘developed world’ are working and studying in the ‘developing world’. However, while opportunities to do this important work increase, there has been insufficient development of ethical guidelines for students. It is often assumed that ethics training in developed world situations is applicable to health experiences globally. However, fundamen…

  • Engaging health professionals in advocacy against gun violence

    Andrew D PintoARTICLEMedicine Conflict & Survival2008

    Health professionals have long been involved with advocacy around the social determinants of health, including protesting against war and mitigating the production, trade and use of specific weapon systems. Small arms and light weapons are a key area on which to focus, as they are responsible for the majority of injuries and deaths in war and their availability is related to increased levels of crime and suicide. Challenges for health professiona…

  • Health implications of small arms and light weapons in eastern Uganda

    Andrew D Pinto, Peter Olupot-Olupot et al.ARTICLEMedicine Conflict & Survival2006

    Injuries due to small arms and light weapons (SALW) are common in developing countries with ongoing collective violence, or those that exist in a post-conflict state. Uganda has a long history of armed conflict, but little quantitative evidence is available about the extent of the problem of SALW. We performed a review of all injuries due to SALW at Mbale Regional Hospital in eastern Uganda for the six-year period 1998-2003. Using a standardised …
