Exploring social dynamics of infectious diseases of poverty in urban India
Poverty-related infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis, malaria, and neglected tropical diseases, disproportionately affect vulnerable populations in urban areas worldwide. Understanding the complex interactions between socioeconomic factors and health-seeking behaviours is crucial for addressing these public health concerns. Unplanned urbanization, poor built-environment characteristics, and social determinants increase susceptibility to heal…
Feasibility assessment of crowdsourcing slogans for promoting household waste segregation in India
Introduction: Crowdsourcing is an emerging technique to engage or access a wider set of experts and multiple stakeholders through online platforms, which might effectively be employed in waste management. Therefore, we assessed the feasibility of the crowdsourcing method to provide an alternative approach that can improve household waste segregation using an "online-slogan-contest". Methods: The contest was promoted via targeted emails to various…
Survival and community care use by care home residents in England
The aim was to provide evidence of mortality and community care costs of people living in care homes and to investigate its association with mental health based on the Mental Health Clustering Tool (MHCT). In an observational study, 5,782 residents living in 104 care homes were followed from 2014 to 2016. Residents were categorised into four groups using the MCHT: three with mental health conditions, ‘non-psychotic’, ‘psychotic’ or ‘organic’; and…

As per the available scientific literature, the health effects of such improved housing schemes for the poor have not been studied so fa…

Mapping inequalities in exclusive breastfeeding in low- and middle-income countries, 2000-2018
Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF)-giving infants only breast-milk for the first 6 months of life-is a component of optimal breastfeeding practices effective in preventing child morbidity and mortality. EBF practices are known to vary by population and comparable subnational estimates of prevalence and progress across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are required for planning policy and interventions. Here we present a geospatial analysis of E…
Integrating motherhood and employment
The United States has one of the lowest exclusive breastfeeding rates among high-income countries. Most experts agree that there is a lack of mother-friendly workplace policies compared to other countries. Since 1995, 25 states have implemented workplace breastfeeding legislation allowing mothers to express and store breast milk in the workplace. There is heterogeneity in policy enforceability where 17 states have weak enforceability while eight …
