The determinants of receiving social care in later life in England
Demographic change and policy changes in social care provision can affect the type of social care support received by older people, whether through informal, formal state or formal paid-for sources. This paper analyses the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing data (wave 4) in order to examine the relationship between demographic and socio-economic characteristics, and the receipt of support from different sources by older people who report diffic…
OP62 How do Adiposity Trajectories Vary by Birth Cohort and Parental Social Class? Evidence from the West of Scotland Twenty-07 Study
Background Over the last 80 years the association between social class and obesity has changed. In the 1930s obesity rates were low and wealthy people tended to have a higher risk of obesity than poor people. However, rising affluence and industrialisation has lead to both rising rates of obesity and an obesogenic environment in which socioeconomically disadvantaged people have the highest risk of obesity. This study investigates the magnitude of…
Another Hispanic paradox? The health benefits of Hispanic communities for non-Hispanic mothers and infant

Hispanic mothers living in counties with a high pr…
The Alchemical Body: Siddha Traditions In Medieval India
Aerated Constructed Wetlands are a state-of-the-art design that provides a different physical and chemical environment (compared to traditional passive wetland designs) for the wastewater treatment processes and, thus, may have different pathogen removal characteristics. In order to establish the fate of bacterial and viral indicators, a field study was carried out at a Sewage Treatment Works (STW) in the UK (serving 20,000 pe). The STW consists …
