Structural pressures and catalytic shocks
Escalating non-communicable disease burden attributable to air pollution
Air pollution (AP) profoundly impacts human health and remains a global challenge. This study examines the global and regional burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) attributable to AP, analyzes heterogeneity by sex, age, and Sociodemographic Index (SDI), and predicts future trends over 25 years. Data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 were used. Trends in NCD mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) due to AP (1990–2021…
Global, regional, and national time trends in falls and their predictions
Background: Falls are a global public health issue with a heavy disease and socioeconomic burden, with an increasing number of risky people. The aim of this study is to explore the global disease burden of falls and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and management of falls. Methods: This study used data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 (GBD 2021) to analyse global, regional, and national temporal trends in falls. An age…
Gender differences in the association between bullying victimization and depressive symptoms in Chinese children and adolescents
Bullied girls exhibited a higher susceptibility to depressive symptoms than boys with the same experience, especially when exposed to multiple bullying incidents. These findings underscore the need for developing gender-specific strategies to protect children from bullying, with an emphasis on safeguarding girls
The Prevalence of Scoliosis Screening Positive and Its Influencing Factors
Objective Early detection of scoliosis is of great significance to patients with scoliosis and the whole society. This paper aims to learn the prevalence of scoliosis screening positive among students in primary and secondary schools and to explore the influencing factors. Methods In 2019, a stratified cluster sampling technique was employed in this school-based cross-sectional study. The sampling covers all prefecture-level cities in Zhejiang Pr…
Understanding the effect of retirement on health behaviors in China
Retirement is an important turning point during the course of life, but few studies have examined the effects of retirement on a broad range of health behaviors in China. We use the longitudinal data of the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) from 2004 to 2015 to conduct empirical analysis. Fuzzy discontinuity regression was used to assess the association between retirement and health behaviors in the entire sample and subgroups based on gen…
The superposition effects of air pollution on government health expenditure in China— spatial evidence from GeoDetector
First, multiple factors influence the spatial heterogeneity of government health expenditure. Second, health and socio-economic factors are still the dominant factors leading to increased government health expenditure. Third, air pollution does have an important impact on government health expenditure. As a catalytic factor, combining with other factors, it will strengthen their impact on government health expenditure. Finally, an integrated appr…
Can community‐based care moderate widowhood's health impact? –A longitudinal study among older Chinese adults
The plethora of pathways leading to health problems of later life has made the causal assessment of widowhood on the health of older adults difficult. This research aimed to assess the short-term impact of widowhood on the objective health of older adults and to the moderating role of community-based care (CBC) in improving the health outcomes of older adults. In this study, the activities of daily living (ADLs) and number of hospitalisations of …
Dietary Patterns and Obesity among Chinese Adults
The key dietary pattern other than dietary factors influencing obesity has been reported by several large epidemiological studies. This study was carried out between 2010 and 2012 including 1613 adult residents in Zhejiang Province. Dietary patterns were extracted by factor analysis based on 24-h dietary recall. Associations with dietary patterns and obesity were examined and adjusted for age and gender by logistic regression. Five dietary patter…
The Rural-Urban Difference in BMI and Anemia among Children and Adolescents
There is growing concern over the double burden of over- and under-nutrition in individuals, especially in children and adolescents, which could dwarf their growth and development. This study aims to explore the rural-urban difference in BMI and anemia among children and adolescents. A stratified cluster sampling technique was employed. Dietary data were collected through interviews, and anthropometric values were measured. There were 1534 childr…
