Understanding the Roles of Remoteness and Indigenous Status in Rural and Remote Road Trauma in North Queensland
Road trauma is a significant health problem in rural and remote regions of Australia, particularly for Indigenous communities. This study aims to identify and compare the circumstances leading to (proximal causation) and social determinants of (distal causation) crashes of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in these regions and their relation to remoteness. This is a topic seriously under-researched in Australia. Modelled on an earlier study, 2…
Patterns of Injury in Hospitalised One-Year-Old Children
The second year of life is a time of rapid developmental changes. This paper aims to describe the pattern of unintentional injuries to one-year old children in three-month age bands to better understand the risks associated with developmental stages and, therefore, identify opportunities for proactive prevention. Injury surveillance data were used to identify children admitted to hospital in Queensland, Australia for an unintentional injury from …
A Retrospective Quasi-Experimental Study of a Transitional Housing Program for Patients with Severe and Persistent Mental Illness
Infant feeding in Queensland, Australia
Infant feeding practices were retrospectively ascertained in a random cohort of parous women (mean age 54.8 years) from Brisbane, Australia. Reported proportions of infants who were ever breast-fed fell from around 90% before 1960 to around 70% in the early 1970s, with some subsequent increase. Similar but stronger trends were reported in proportions of infants breast- but not bottle-fed. Few maternal characteristics were associated with feeding …
