Toward People’s Budgets
In this article, we respond to Narayan and Rosenman’s call for a more public economic geography by considering the ways in which economic geographers could contribute to social movements. We do this in two ways. First, we reflect on our initial encounters with economics in the fields of geography and urban planning to consider how our disciplinary groundings shape and perhaps limit our imaginaries of the economy. Second, we consider how activist …
Sleep Duration, Insomnia, and Associated Factors Among Ukrainians 1 Year After Russia’s Full-Scale Invasion
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the prevalence of sleep disturbances and associated factors among Ukrainians 1 year after Russia's full-scale invasion. METHODS: Quota sampling was used to collect online survey data from 2364 adults living in Ukraine aged 18 to 79 years from April 5, 2023, to May 15, 2023. Short sleep duration was defined as sleep duration ≤6 hours and long sleep duration as ≥9 hours. Insomnia was assessed by the Insomnia Sympt…
Reimagining the municipal economy
Budgets are often thought of as boring, invoking the tedium of bookkeeping. The summer of 2020 suggested otherwise. As America’s plague of police brutality combined with the death-dealing blows of the COVID-19 pandemic and a wave of urban uprising gripped US cities, activists turned their organising attention to municipal budgeting. From Seattle to Atlanta, demands rang out for cities to #defund the police, rethink public safety and adopt budgets…
Unseeing Racism
Pairing data-driven and participatory processes is an alluring approach for contentious urban issues. However, within these processes, the ongoing role of whiteness – an unnamed norm that privileges White people – is understudied and undertheorized. I examine how data and participation were positioned within conversations of gentrification in Lexington, KY. Beyond considering who participates, I analyse how the expectations and burdens of engagem…
Reproducibility and Relative Validity of a Dietary Screener Adapted for Use among Pregnant Women in Dhulikhel, Nepal
The Biopsychosocial Model and Perinatal Health Care
Insufficient care in the perinatal period is associated with poorer maternal health, poorer perinatal outcomes, infant mortality, and health inequalities. Identifying the sources of and reducing the rates of insufficient care is therefore a major clinical and public health objective. We propose a specific application of the biopsychosocial model that conceptualizes prenatal and postpartum care quality as health markers that are influenced by psyc…
Community geography for precarious researchers
Heavy is the Head That Wears the Crown
Racial disparities in breast cancer are well-documented, and Black women assume a disproportionate burden of breast cancer mortality. Black women also commonly use hair products containing endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) more often at an increased rate, as compared to other racial/ethnic groups. Emerging findings have reported the use of hair and other personal care products containing EDCs may contribute to breast cancer risk. While some s…
First Trimester Phthalate Exposure and Infant Birth Weight in the Infant Development and Environment Study
Phthalate exposure is widespread among pregnant women but whether it is related to fetal growth and birth weight remains to be determined. We examined whether first trimester prenatal phthalate exposure was associated with birth weight in a pregnancy cohort study. We recruited first trimester pregnant women from 2010-2012 from four centers and analyzed mother/infant dyads who had complete urinary phthalate and birth record data (N = 753). We cond…
Delusions and Other Irrational Beliefs
While the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders is psychiatry's premier guide to classifying and treating mental disorders, it is also renowned for the history and implications of its errata. Regarding delusions, the DSM partially defines them as ‘false beliefs based on incorrect inference about external reality’. But correctness is not a property inferences can bear, strictly speaking; and falsity cannot be a defining property, a…
Dietary Phthalate Exposure in Pregnant Women and the Impact of Consumer Practices
Phthalates are ubiquitous endocrine-disrupting chemicals that are contaminants in food and contribute to significant dietary exposures. We examined associations between reported consumption of specific foods and beverages and first trimester urinary phthalate metabolite concentrations in 656 pregnant women within a multicenter cohort study, The Infant Development and Environment Study (TIDES), using multivariate regression analysis. We also exami…
