The Association Between Area Deprivation Index and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Patients with Advanced Cancer
Background: This analysis describes associations between area deprivation and patient-reported outcomes among patients with advanced cancer. Methods: This is a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from a multisite primary palliative care intervention trial. Participants were adult patients with advanced cancer. Patient-level area deprivation scores were calculated using the Area Deprivation Index (ADI). Quality of life and symptom burden wer…
The Value of Teaching Critical Race Theory in Prison Spaces
This paper seeks to address the value of a humanities-based education, specifically focusing on a critical race theory course taught within a prison classroom. The perspectives shared are from three incarcerated students as well as their course instructor regarding the continued debate over whether vocational or academic courses are more beneficial in prison spaces. The case for vocational training has always been supported. Yet, the value of aca…
Length of Hospital Stay for Osteoarthritic Primary Hip and Knee Replacement Surgeries in New Zealand
This study aims to explore the length of stay (LOS) of publicly funded osteoarthritic primary hip and knee replacement surgeries in New Zealand. Patients with osteoarthritis who underwent publicly funded primary hip and knee replacement surgery in 2005-2017 were included. We have identified 53,439 osteoarthritic primary hip replacements and 50,072 osteoarthritic primary knee replacements. LOS has been reduced by almost 40% over the last 13 years.…

Exploring the Impacts of Ballot Box Land Use Measures on Affordable Housing
Throughout the U.S., increasing land use regulation via ballot box measures is being addressed. It appears that ballot box land use measures to pass land use regulation change can lead to delays in the land development process. These delays have been found to increase transaction costs, cause uncertainty in the development process, and lead to a reduction in the number of new single-unit homes being constructed. One of the major concerns is that …
Weaknesses in Current Measures of Housing Needs
Defining housing affordability presents issues in measurement that have implications for housing policy. Measures of housing affordability are generally based on assumptions on what should be paid for housing. In establishing standards in this way, as in the 30% of income standard used with HUD programs, a single measure is imposed on an entire population and the most severe needs requiring intervention may be missed. Differences may exist across…
Assessing the Impact of Integrated Natural Resource Management
Assessing the impact of integrated natural resource management (INRM) research poses a challenge to scientists. The complexity of INRM interventions requires a more holistic approach to impact assessment, beyond the plot and farm levels and beyond traditional analysis of economic returns. Impact assessment for INRM combines the traditional "what" and "where" factors of economic and environmental priorities with newer "who" and "how" aspects of so…
Kinship, Networks, and Exchange
This collection of articles aims at revitalizing the study of kinship and exchange in a social network perspective. It brings together studies of empirical systems of marriage and descent with investigations of the flow of material resources in societies of Africa, Asia, the Pacific and Europe. Restudies of classic ethnographic cases and fieldwork studies of kinship and exchange demonstrate how the social and material aspects of society are relat…
