  • Emerging health threats in a changing climate

    Open AccessXinyu Wang, Xinwei Liu et al.ARTICLECritical Public Health2026

    Introduction Under climate change, non-optimal temperature is a key environmental risk for noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), but global evidence comparing disease-specific burdens across climate zones and development levels remains limited. We assessed attributable NCD burden during 1990–2021.Theory We used a conceptual framework linking temperature exposure with NCD burden, integrating low and high temperature exposure, socio-demographic index (S…

  • Escalating non-communicable disease burden attributable to air pollution

    Open AccessYe Li, Fangqi Qu et al.ARTICLECritical Public Health2026

    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…

  • Spatiotemporal analysis of health poverty in China amid social change

    Open AccessYe Li, Fangqi Qu et al.ARTICLEHumanities and Social Sciences…2025

    This study develops a Health Poverty Index (HPI) that integrates health rights, capabilities, and risks to analyze provincial disparities in China from 2010 to 2020. Utilizing data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) encompassing 76,999 households, we measured the incidence, depth, and spatiotemporal drivers of health poverty through Geographically and Temporally Weighted Regression (GTWR). The results indicate a national decline in HPI fr…

  • Global, regional, and national time trends in falls and their predictions

    Open AccessHuan Jiang, Ning Sun et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    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…

  • Spatial effects of public health laboratory emergency testing institutions under Covid-19 in China

    Open AccessBaoguo Shi, Yanjie Wang et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2023

    Therefore, the government should allocate health resources rationally, optimise the spatial layout of testing facilities, and improve the ability to respond to public health emergencies. Meanwhile, third-party testing facilities need to focus on their role in the public health emergency response system as a market force to alleviate the inequitable allocation of health resources between regions. By taking these measures to prepare adequately for …

  • Time tracking and multidimensional influencing factors analysis on female breast cancer mortality

    Open AccessXiaodan Bai, Xiyu Zhang et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background: There are huge differences in female breast cancer mortality between urban and rural China. In order to better prevent breast cancer equally in urban and rural areas, it is critical to trace the root causes of past inequities and predict how future differences will change. Moreover, carcinogenic factors from micro-individual to macro-environment also need to be analyzed in detail. However, there is no systematic research covering thes…

  • Government drivers of breast cancer prevention

    Open AccessXiaodan Bai, Xiyu Zhang et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background: Currently, breast cancer (BC) is ranked among the top malignant tumors in the world, and has attracted widespread attention. Compared with the traditional analysis on biological determinants of BC, this study focused on macro factors, including light at night (LAN), PM2.5, per capita consumption expenditure, economic density, population density, and number of medical beds, to provide targets for the government to implement BC interven…

  • Spatial effects of air pollution on the economic burden of disease

    Open AccessXiyu Zhang, Qi Xia et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2022

    The different contributions and synergy among the factors constitute the complex mechanism of factors and catastrophic health expenditure. Moreover, during this process, air pollution aggravates the contribution of health service factors toward ICHE. In addition, the leading factors of ICHE are different among regions. At the end, this paper also puts forward some policy suggestions from the perspective of health and environment crisis in the pos…

  • The superposition effects of air pollution on government health expenditure in China— spatial evidence from GeoDetector

    Open AccessQi Xia, Xiyu Zhang et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    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…
