Predictors of permanent emigration in a long-term cohort of Spitak earthquake survivors in Armenia
A post-earthquake psychopathological investigation in Armenia
The post-earthquake psychopathological investigation (PEPSI) was designed to probe the short-and long-term effects of the earthquake in northern Armenia on 7 December 1988 on survivors' mental and physical health. Four phases of this study have been conducted to date, and, overall, more than 80 per cent of a sub-sample of 1,773 drawn from an initial cohort of 32,743 was successfully followed during 2012. This paper describes the methodology emplo…
Short and long term determinants of incident multimorbidity in a cohort of 1988 earthquake survivors in Armenia
Most of the identified determinants of incident multimorbidity in our study population were markers of social inequities, indicating that inequities pose a serious threat to both individual and public health-related outcomes. Strategies targeting to decrease such inequities along with promotion of healthy lifestyle and strengthening of social networks may considerably reduce multimorbidity among population groups with similar socioeconomic and cu…
The Case-Control Method
The case-control method, and to a lesser extent its case-based variants, have become a most important tool in the armamentarium of today's investigator of health problems. This book addresses a number of general and specific questions dealing with the case-control and other case-based methods, including how to design and implement a case-control study that minimizes biases; how to analyze the data to deal appropriately with confounding and to hel…
Risk Factors for Depression in the Survivors of the 1988 Earthquake in Armenia
Epidemiology of primary health problems in Beirut
As a result of 12 years of civil war in Lebanon, it has been impossible to collect regular morbidity information at the primary level. This report is based on a case-control analysis of various health problems as identified from a population based health survey in Beirut in 1983-1984. Cases of headache, backpain and peptic ulcer, as identified from this survey of 2752 households, were matched for age, sex, and neighbourhood with controls from the…
Perceptions from epidemiologic research in an endemic war
Beirut 1984, a Population and Health Profile
The results of a survey of approximately 2752 households interviewed in Beirut Lebanon in 1983-1984 as part of an effort to establish a population laboratory in that city are presented. The methodology used in developing the survey is first described. Demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the survey population including age and sex composition nuptiality mortality fertility and migration are discussed in one chapter. The bulk of the re…
