Social Correlates of Social Capital Access Among Gay and Bisexual Men in Japan
Significant health disparities exist between gay and bisexual men (GBM) and the general population in Japan and internationally. Social capital is recognized as a key factor for positive health and well‐being outcomes, including HIV prevention behaviors, among GBM. However, limited research examines how the sexual orientation of alters (i.e., possessors of resources within social capital networks) impacts access to these resources. In this study,…
Transactional Intimacy and Structural Vulnerability: Compensated Dating among LGBTQA + Youth in Japan
Very little is known about the practice of compensated dating among LGBTQA + youth in Japan. This is a critical gap in research, as compensated dating (enjo kōsai) is more commonly reported among young people experiencing economic hardship, social exclusion, or housing instability. LGBTQA + youth in Japan are disproportionately affected by structural vulnerabilities, yet their experiences remain underexamined in national data. This study examines…
Myanmar's coup risks a flood of vaccine-preventable disease
In line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the reduction of the under-5 mortality rate to ≤25 deaths per 1000 live births by 2030 is the primary target of Myanmar’s national strategic plan for newborn and child health [1]. Myanmar made considerable strides in decreasing under-5 mortality with a 61% reduction between 1990 and 2019; [...]
Occupation- and industry-specific cancer mortality among Japanese women from 1980 to 2015
To improve the health and well-being of employed Japanese women, it is crucial to monitor cancer mortality trends. Using these population-level quantitative risk estimates, industry- and occupation-specific prevention programmes can be developed to target women at higher cancer risk and enable the early detection and treatment of cancer
Military coup during Covid-19 pandemic and health crisis in Myanmar
Advertisers, marketers, and researchers all wrestle with finding the personal human presence in text-based online communication. Social features are present, if subtle. Users of online research must work to identify when and how unseen writers are or are not strongly committed to what they have just written, and must work even harder to keep from reading themselves and their own biases into the text being analyzed. Our discussion illustrates how …
Rapid impact assessments of Covid-19 control measures against the Delta variant and short-term projections of new confirmed cases in Vietnam
As of 2020, the cumulative number of COVID-19 cases recorded in Vietnam was less than 1500, proving the success of COVID-19 control in Vietnam [1]. Vietnam has been recognized as one of the few countries that successfully controlled COVID-19 in 2020 [2]. Several recent articles have summarised a set of lessons learned, the so-called “Zero-new-case-approach”. These included (i) a rapid and coordinated public health response with a decentralized he…
Associations Between Social Capital and HIV Risk-Taking Behaviors Among Men Who Have Sex with Men in Japan
The Effect of the Australian National Firearms Agreement on Suicide and Homicide Mortality, 1978–2015
Objectives. To investigate the impact of the Australian National Firearms Agreement (NFA) on suicide and assault mortality. Methods. We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional difference-in-difference study of the impact of the NFA on national mortality rates in the Australian population from 1961 to 2015. Results. The NFA had no additional statistically observable impact on firearm-related suicides in women (P = .09) and was associated with a …
Excess mortality due to indirect health effects of the 2011 triple disaster in Fukushima, Japan: A retrospective observational study
BACKGROUND: Evidence on the indirect health impacts of disasters is limited. We assessed the excess mortality risk associated with the indirect health impacts of the 2011 triple disaster (earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster) in Fukushima, Japan. METHODS: The mortality rates in Soma and Minamisoma cities in Fukushima from 2006 to 2015 were calculated using vital statistics and resident registrations. We investigated the excess mortality risk,…
Maternal anemia and risk of adverse birth and health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Global, regional, and national life expectancy, all-cause mortality, and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes of death, 1980–2015: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015
BACKGROUND: Improving survival and extending the longevity of life for all populations requires timely, robust evidence on local mortality levels and trends. The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study (GBD 2015) provides a comprehensive assessment of all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1980 to 2015. These results informed an in-depth investigation of observed and expected mortality patterns bas…

An evaluation of early countermeasures to reduce the risk of internal radiation exposure after the Fukushima nuclear incident in Japan
After a radiation-release incident, intake of radionuclides in the initial stage immediately following the incident may be the major contributor to total internal radiation exposure for individuals in affected areas. However, evaluation of early internal contamination risk is greatly lacking. This study assessed the relationship between initial stage evacuation/indoor sheltering and internal radiation contamination levels 4 months after the 2011 …
Inequality and inequity in healthcare utilization in urban Nepal: A cross-sectional observational study
Inequality in access to quality healthcare is a major health policy challenge in many low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to identify the major sources of inequity in healthcare utilization using a population-based household survey from urban Nepal. A cross-sectional survey was conducted covering 9177 individuals residing in 1997 households in five municipalities of Kathmandu valley between 2011 and 2012. The concentration index wa…
Examining links between cocaine use and street‐based sex work in New South Wales, Australia
We examined potential links between cocaine use and street-based sex work in New South Wales (NSW), Australia, following reports of increased cocaine use among injection drug users (IDU). Police data on prostitution and possession/use of cocaine was analysed using time series analysis. Interviews with key informants and IDU were also conducted, and data on cocaine use from ongoing monitoring systems targeted at IDU were analysed. There was a clea…
