Gender inequalities of caregiver mental health and burden in the three years post Covid-19 (Cuidar-SE Study)
This study underscores the mental health impact of caregiving during the pandemic, revealing gender inequities in caregiving tasks, burden, and mental health distress. The findings emphasize the need for gender-sensitive policies, aligned with the SDGs, to support caregivers' well-being. Strengthening formal care services and promoting shared caregiving responsibilities are essential to reducing caregiver burden and improving mental health outcom…
Multilevel Zero-One Inflated Beta Regression Model for the Analysis of the Relationship between Exogenous Health Variables and Technical Efficiency in the Spanish National Health System Hospitals
The proportion of hospital beds in intensive care units relates to a higher chance of being on the efficiency frontier. Hospital ownership structure is related to the mean efficiency index of Spanish National Health Service hospitals, as well as the odds of being situated on the efficiency frontier
Análisis multinivel de la producción científica mundial sobre paternidad, desarrollo humano e igualdad de género
Comparar las diferencias en la producción científica mundial sobre paternidad y maternidad (cantidad, momento de inicio y evolución temporal), conocer la distribución geográfica internacional de artículos sobre paternidad, y examinar la relación del índice de desarrollo humano (IDH) y del índice global de brecha de género (IGBG) con el número de artículos sobre paternidad. Análisis descriptivo de artículos sobre paternidad y maternidad de la base…
Multilevel Analysis of the Relationship between Ownership Structure and Technical Efficiency Frontier in the Spanish National Health System Hospitals
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the ownership structure of hospitals and the possibility of their being positioned on the frontier of technical efficiency in the economic crisis period 2010-2012, adjusting for hospital variables and regional characteristics in the areas where the Spanish National Health System (SNHS) hospitals are located. Methods : 230 National Health System hospitals were studied over the two-year period 2010-20…
Geographical and Temporal Variations in Female Breast Cancer Mortality in the Municipalities of Andalusia (Southern Spain)
The last published figures have shown geographical variations in mortality with respect to female breast cancer in European countries. However, national health policies need a dynamic image of the geographical variations within the country. The aim of this paper was to describe the spatial distribution of age-specific mortality rates from female breast cancer in the municipalities of Andalusia (southern Spain) and to analyze its evolution over ti…
Spatio-temporal trends of mortality in small areas of Southern Spain
The study shows a dynamic geographical distribution of mortality, with a different pattern for each year, gender and age group. This information will contribute towards a reflection on the past, present and future of mortality in Andalusia
A multilevel model for the study of breastfeeding determinants in Brazil: A multilevel model for the study of breastfeeding
The benefits of breastfeeding for the children's health have been highlighted in many studies. The innovative aspect of the present study lies in its use of a multilevel model, a technique that has rarely been applied to studies on breastfeeding. The data reported were collected from a larger study, the Family Budget Survey-Pesquisa de Orçamentos Familiares, carried out between 2002 and 2003 in Brazil that involved a sample of 48 470 households. …

Patterns of smoking according to individual social position, and to socio-economic environment in municipal areas, Spain 1987–2001
Area deprivation and mortality in the provincial capital cities of Andalusia and Catalonia (Spain)
OBJECTIVE: To study the linkage between material deprivation and mortality from all causes, for men and women separately, in the capital cities of the provinces in Andalusia and Catalonia (Spain). METHODS: A small-area ecological study was devised using the census section as the unit for analysis. 188,983 Deaths occurring in the capital cities of the Andalusian provinces and 109,478 deaths recorded in the Catalan capital cities were examined. Pri…
