Explaining Neighbourhood Variations in the Incidence of Dengue Fever in Jeddah City, Saudi Arabia
The rapid growth and development of cities is a contributing factor to the rise and persistence of dengue fever (DF) in many areas around the world. Many studies have examined how neighbourhood environmental conditions contribute to dengue fever and its spread, but have not paid enough attention to links between socio-economic conditions and other factors, including population composition, population density, the presence of migrant groups, and n…
The effect of urban green space on uncertainty stress and life stress: A nationwide study of university students in China
Regional contextual influences on short sleep duration: A 50 universities population-based multilevel study in China
BACKGROUND: Ecological models have emphasized that short sleep duration (SSD) is influenced by both individual and environmental variables. However, few studies have considered the latter. OBJECTIVES: The present study explores the influence of urban and regional contextual factors, net of individual characteristics, on the prevalence of SSD among university students in China. METHODS: Participants were 11,954 students, who were identified throug…
Individual and regional factors affecting stress and problem alcohol use: A representative nationwide study of China
The tobacco endgame: The neglected role of place and environment
Mitogenomics of the Extinct Cave Lion, Panthera spelaea (Goldfuss, 1810), Resolve its Position within the Panthera Cats
The extinct cave lion (Panthera spelaea) was an apex predator of the Pleistocene, and one of the largest felid species ever to exist. We report the first mitochondrial genome sequences for this species, derived from two Beringian specimens, one of which has been radiocarbon dated to 29,860 ± 210 14C a BP. Phylogenetic analysis confirms the placement of the cave lion as the sister taxon to populations of the modern lion (P. leo). Using newly recov…
Gender balance and its impact on male and female smoking rates in Chinese cities
The impact of regional economic reliance on the tobacco industry on current smoking in China
Population Demography and Genetic Diversity in the Pleistocene Cave Lion
With a range that covered most of northern Eurasia and parts of North America, the cave lion (Panthera spelaea) was one of the most widespread carnivores of the Late Pleistocene. Earlier ancient DNA analyses have shown that it is distinct from modern lions, and have suggested a demographic decline in Beringia during marine isotope stage 3 (MIS 3). Here, we further investigate the Late Pleistocene population dynamics in more detail by combining a …

Pig Domestication and Human-Mediated Dispersal in Western Eurasia Revealed through Ancient DNA and Geometric Morphometrics
Zooarcheological evidence suggests that pigs were domesticated in Southwest Asia ~8,500 BC. They then spread across the Middle and Near East and westward into Europe alongside early agriculturalists. European pigs were either domesticated independently or more likely appeared so as a result of admixture between introduced pigs and European wild boar. As a result, European wild boar mtDNA lineages replaced Near Eastern/Anatolian mtDNA signatures i…
Smoking, Ethnic Residential Segregation, and Ethnic Diversity: A Spatio-temporal Analysis
Ethnic residential segregation is a profound social divide in many societies. In the health arena, U.S. work has been influential in demonstrating the impact of ethnic residential segregation on child health outcomes, showing how it can compound other forms of disadvantage. This article builds on and extends this research by examining the transferability of conclusions concerning the health impact of ethnic residential segregation to a non-U.S. c…
Sociospatial inequalities in health-related behaviours: Pathways linking place and smoking
There has been a resurgence of interest in how the social, built and cultural environments contribute to shaping health outcomes. The pathways relating place to health behaviour have received less attention. We develop a nuanced understanding of the pathways linking individuals, places and smoking. Two key pathways operate: place-based ‘practices’ and place-based ‘regulation’. Future geographical research should pay attention to the different sca…
Urban–rural variation in childhood type 1 diabetes incidence in Canterbury, New Zealand, 1980–2004
Ethnic Spatial Segregation and Tobacco Consumption: A Multilevel Repeated Cross-Sectional Analysis of Smoking Prevalence in Urban New Zealand, 1981-1996
The growing literature on the role of ethnic segregation in understanding spatial inequalities in mortality and morbidity has not yet been extended to the study of health-related behaviours. We address this gap in knowledge through an examination of the geography of smoking prevalence in New Zealand, using a multilevel repeated cross-sectional analysis of smoking prevalences in 1981 and 1996 as revealed in the New Zealand census. Smoking prevalen…

Nomadic identities and socio-spatial competence: Making Sense of Post-Smoking Selves
The reconstruction of smoking as an unhealthy practice has given rise to a discursive field in which some people shy away from smoking identities that are tainted with the attendant notions of dirt and disgust and also from overt external control over individual behaviour. In many cases individuals demonstrate social competence by quitting smoking. Social and secret smokers challenge both binary understandings of smoking identities (smoker/non-sm…

Urban deprivation and public hospital admissions in Christchurch, New Zealand, 1990-1997: Urban deprivation and hospital admissions
The present paper examines the relationship between deprivation and changing patterns of public hospital admissions in Christchurch, New Zealand, between 1992 and 1997, during a time of economic restructuring and rapid change in the health sector. The total set of admissions into Christchurch Hospital was geocoded according to the meshblock domicile of each patient. Domiciles were classified into 10 decile categories using the NZDep91 and NZDep96…
