Survival After Opioid-Related Hospitalization and the Impact of Socioeconomic Status (SES) on Survival
Although some studies examined long-term survival following an opioid nonfatal overdose, none assessed whether survival after a nonfatal overdose is linked to socioeconomic status (SES). The objective of this study was to investigate survival rates after opioid-related hospitalizations and the relationship between SES and survival. We used national hospitalization data linked to mortality data to follow patients discharged alive after opioid-rela…
Costs and benefits of improving water and sanitation in slums and non-slum neighborhoods in Dhaka, a fast-growing mega-city
Mega-cities like Dhaka in Bangladesh face urban planning challenges to provide residents access to safe water and sanitation. This paper presents the results of a large-scale survey focusing on slum and non-slum residents' experiences with urban water supply, water pollution and flood risks and associated costs of illness (COI). The latter are compared to residents' willingness to pay (WTP) for improved water services. We test differences in publ…
Global Discourses and Local Disconnects
Women comprise a larger share of the world’s aging population. Because older women occupy two stigmatized statuses, they are deemed a particularly disadvantaged group requiring attention. International organizations claim that the feminization of population aging has the potential to become one of the biggest challenges to gender equality of the twenty-first century due to cumulative impacts of inequalities in later life. Yet, discussions uncriti…
A systematic global stocktake of evidence on human adaptation to climate change
The development and validation of a marginalization index for inpatient psychiatry
BACKGROUND: Marginalization is a multidimensional social construct that influences the mental health status of individuals and their use of psychiatric services. However, its conceptualization and measurement are challenging due to inconsistencies in definitions, and the lack of standard data sources to measure this construct. AIMS: To create an index for screening marginalization based on an existing comprehensive assessment system used in inpat…

The Politics of Indigeneity
Review of The politics of indigeneity: Dialogues and reflections on indigenous activism. S. Venkateswar and E. Hughes, Eds. Zed Books, London, 2012, 2nd ed., ISBN 978 1 8481 3950 3, 256 pp. Just as the concept of indigeneity as debated through a range of voices as chronicled by this book evokes a political response; as reviewers, we had a similar response to the concept of writing this review. The volume is made up of a series of dialogues and re…
A multilevel examination of gender differences in the association between features of the school environment and physical activity among a sample of grades 9 to 12 students in Ontario, Canada
Although most variation in male and female students' time spent in PA lies between students within schools, there is sufficient between-school variation to be of interest to practitioners and policy-makers. More research investigating gender differentials in environment factors associated with youth PA are warranted

Health in Hamilton neighbourhoods
Path analysis of income, coping and health at the local level in a Canadian context
This article explores the relationships between social, physical, and sociodemographic characteristics and the health status of individuals within four contrasting neighbourhoods in Hamilton, Ontario, using a cross-sectional design. Using data from a telephone survey conducted in 2001 and 2002 of a random sample of adults (1504 respondents, response rate = 60%), path analysis was used to estimate direct and indirect effects of neighbourhood locat…

Design: Cross sectional survey data analysed in small neighbourhoods. Setting: Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, a medium sized industrial city, located at the western end of Lake Ontario (population at the time of the study about 380 …

Missionary Nurse Dorothy Davis Cook, 1940-1972
Dramatically absent from nursing's historical knowledge and professional recognition are the lives, roles, contributions, and legacies of Christian faith-based nurses. The purpose of this study was to investigate the ministry and service of Sister Tutor Dorothy Davis Cook, Church of the Nazarene missionary nurse in the African country of Swaziland 1940 to 1972. The multi-dimensional, multi-task expanded roles manifested in her integration of Chri…
Something Happened’
This paper investigates reactions to a proposed municipal solid waste facility in Southern Ontario supposed to be a low‐level, low probability risk using the risk society framework, developed independently by Beck (1992a, 1992b) and Giddens (1990, 1991). Residents often view risk from environmental hazards as high despite expert assurances that risks are low. The appeal of risk society as a general framework is that it connects quantitative risk …

The Housing Experience of Chronically Mentally Disabled Clients in Hamilton, Ontario
The chronically mentally disabled (CMD) are seriously disadvantaged in the housing market by reason of disability and low socio‐economic status. In many North American cities, the CMD are among the groups most vulnerable to homeiessness. Little attention has been paid to the housing situation and residential history of the CMD despite their supposed effects on coping ability and community tenure. This analysis of the residential experience of CMD…
