Place and the Social-Spatial Determinants of Health
This open access contributed volume is the first to address Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) from a place-based perspective with a transdisciplinary, global outlook. In this open access book, experts from geography, public health, urban planning, sociology, architecture, and more respond to growing calls for action on SDoH to improve health outcomes and promote health equity. Through theoretical considerations and case studies, the book explo…
The Experiences of Hispanic Mothers of Young Children in Accessing Cross-sector Federal Financial Assistance Programs to Improve Family Self-sufficiency and Well-being
This study explored the experiences of Hispanic families accessing subsidized early care and education programs, and their access to other federal financial assistance programs, designed to increase family self-sufficiency and well-being. Federal programs include subsidized early care and education, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), and Housing and Urban Development assistance progra…

Health interventions implemented in post-disaster South Asia
Fighting mosquito bite during a crisis
Findings underscore the importance of ongoing mosquito control activities, and suggest that Florida mosquito control programs are vigilant and have significant capability to handle potential mosquito-borne disease threats, but arbovirus surveillance systems (laboratory testing of mosquito pools and testing of human and nonhuman specimens for arboviruses) are needed during pandemics as well
The Association Between the Social Determinants of Health and HIV Control in Miami-Dade County ZIP Codes, 2017
BACKGROUND: There were 28,055 people living with HIV (PLWH) in Miami-Dade County (MDC) in 2017; 40.1% was either out of care or was not virally suppressed (uncontrolled HIV). The purpose of this study was to determine the association between the social determinants of health (SDOH) and the number of persons with uncontrolled HIV in MDC. SETTING: This cross-sectional study included PLWH 15 and older with uncontrolled HIV in MDC, 2017. Data on PLWH…

Causes of Morbidity and Mortality among Neonates and Children in Post-Conflict Burundi
The risk of a child dying before age five in Burundi is almost 1.6 times higher than that in the World Health Organization (WHO) African region. However, variations in the all-cause mortality rates across Burundi have not yet been measured directly at subnational levels, age group and by gender. The objective of this study was to describe the main causes of hospitalization and mortality in children during the neonatal period and at ages 1 to 59 m…
Assessing the reduction in infant mortality rates in Malawi over the 1990–2010 decades
One of the key objectives of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) was to improve the lives of infants and children, particularly the reduction of high infant and childhood mortality rates throughout the developing world. This paper examines the experiences of Malawi in tackling the problem of high infant and childhood mortality over recent decades, 1990-2010. We highlight the strategies that were used in Malawi which led to Malawi's stellar pe…
Seasonal and Geographic Variation of Pediatric Malaria in Burundi
We analyzed hospitalization records from 2011 to 2012 to examine the spatial patterns of pediatric malaria in Burundi. Malaria case data for those below the age of five years were categorized according to the four principal seasons of Burundi, which are two rainy seasons (February to May; September to November) and two dry seasons (June to August; December to January). The Getis-Ord Gi* statistic was used to examine seasonal spatial patterns of p…
Geographic Assessment of Unattended Swimming Pools in Post-Katrina New Orleans, 2006–2008
In this study, we examined the spatial and temporal patterns of unattended swimming pools and determined the effect of neighborhood deterioration on odds of a pool being unattended in New Orleans, Louisiana, from 2006 to 2008, a period during which the city experienced widespread devastation from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. A surfeit of unattended pools on properties abandoned by displaced residents has a number of potential direct and indirect …
