  • Exploring the Impact of Neighbourhood Social Fragmentation on High Subjective Wellbeing

    Open AccessJOSEPH Uche ANUMBA, Mazumdar et al.ARTICLESocial Indicators Research2026

    Subjective wellbeing (SWB) is a key social indicator and a potential determinant of health, yet empirical evidence linking neighbourhood social fragmentation to higher SWB remains limited. This study examined the association between neighbourhood social fragmentation and high SWB among 2,056 adults in the Australian Capital Territory using data from the ‘Living well in the ACT Region’ survey. High SWB was assessed using the Personal Wellbeing Ind…

  • Built Environment Features and Cardiometabolic Mortality and Morbidity in Remote Indigenous Communities in the Northern Territory, Australia

    Open AccessAmal Chakraborty, Margaret Cargo et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    Indigenous Australians experience poorer health than non-Indigenous Australians, with cardiometabolic diseases (CMD) being the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Built environmental (BE) features are known to shape cardiometabolic health in urban contexts, yet little research has assessed such relationships for remote-dwelling Indigenous Australians. This study assessed associations between BE features and CMD-related morbidity and mortal…

  • Prevalence of overweight and obesity, and associations with socio-demographic factors in Kuwait

    Open AccessVictor M Oguoma, Neil T Coffee et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    Overweight was greater in men, obesity greater in women. Overweight and obesity prevalence were high in young adults aged 18-29 years, a significant public health concern. Efforts to integrate mandatory physical education to the school curriculum and promoting the creation of recreation spaces/parks to promote physical activities, will play a vital role in the early prevention of overweight/obesity in Kuwait

  • Cardiovascular disease risk factors in a Nigerian population with impaired fasting blood glucose level and diabetes mellitus

    Open AccessVictor M Oguoma, Ezekiel Uba Nwose et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    The higher prevalence of co-morbidity of CVD risk factors with IFG than in diabetes plus the similar age of co-morbidity between IFG and diabetes highlights the need for risk assessment models for prediabetes and education of individuals at risk about factors that mitigate development of diabetes and CVDs

  • Prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors among a Nigerian adult population

    Open AccessVictor M Oguoma, Ezekiel Uba Nwose et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    This study has shown that a significant number of modifiable CVD risk factors exist in the rural and urban migrants of an adult Nigerian population. While income level did not affect the CVD risk factor prevalence, it did affect accessibility to CVD risk screening. There is a need for access to diagnosis of modifiable risk factors at all levels of society
