Factors Associated With Suicide Attempts and Deaths in Mongolia From 2016 to 2023
PurposeTo identify the socio-demographic determinants and temporal changes of suicide attempts and deaths in Mongolia.MethodsNational injury surveillance and population data of Mongolia (2016-2023) were used to calculate annual rates of suicide attempts and deaths per 10,000 population with stratification by age, sex, and geographic region. Temporal changes were assessed by calculation of annual percentage changes (APCs). For education and occupa…
Medical follow-up requirements during two water-related disasters in Japan
This study aimed to analyze the medical follow-up requirements during the response to Typhoon 19 in 2019 and the Kumamoto heavy rain in 2020 in Japan, focusing on trends, and demographic and health-related predictors necessitating follow-up. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted using data collected by Japanese Emergency Medical Teams (EMTs) through the "Japan-Surveillance in Post-Extreme Emergencies and Disasters" (J-SPEED) tool. A total of 1…
Effects of Ramadan on clinical visits at a primary health center in a Rohingya refugee camp in Bangladesh
In 2017, hundreds of thousands of Rohingya fled Myanmar to refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar in southeastern Bangladesh. Peace Winds Japan and Dhaka Community Hospital Trust have jointly operated a primary health center (PHC) at Camp 14 in this region since 2018. Our objective was to determine the effect of Ramadan on clinical visits at this PHC during 2020. We conducted a retrospective analysis of patient data, including diagnoses and use of medicati…
Effect of individual preventive practices on Covid-19 infection
This analysis provides evidence to guide COVID-19 prevention policies. Simultaneous adherence to multiple NPIs proved more effective in preventing COVID-19. Despite changes in viral strains and the number of infected cases, hand washing/mask wearing, refraining from travel, and refraining from dining out significantly associated with a reduction of COVID-19 infection. Our findings are likely to be applicable in future infectious disease outbreaks
Effectiveness of Covid-19 mRNA vaccine in preventing infection against Omicron strain
Background and purpose Despite the widespread adoption of various preventive measures since the spread of COVID-19, there remains a lack of consensus on universally acknowledged best practices. However, the significance of vaccination has risen to prominence as a paramount preventive strategy. Numerous investigations have demonstrated vaccine effectiveness against the omicron strain in severe disease and symptomatic disease, however, the scope of…
Exploring the Gender and Age Demographics of Patients Treated by Emergency Medical Teams during Disasters
Study findings highlight the importance of considering age-specific healthcare requirements in disaster planning. Real-time data collection tools such as J-SPEED and MDS, which generate both daily reports and raw data for in-depth analysis, facilitate the validation of equitable access to healthcare services, emphasize the specific needs of vulnerable groups, and enable the consideration of cultural preferences to improve healthcare provision by …
Potential Risk Factors to Covid-19 Severity
Our findings indicate that risk factors vary across different SARS-CoV-2 variants. Examining variant-specific risk factors for COVID-19 severity can aid policymakers, public health specialists, and clinicians in prioritizing screening, treatment, and vaccination efforts, especially during potential healthcare resource shortages
Must countries shoulder the burden of mesothelioma to ban asbestos? A global assessment
INTRODUCTION: Mesothelioma is a key asbestos-related disease (ARD) but can be difficult to diagnose. Countries presumably ban asbestos to reduce future ARD burdens, but it is unknown if countries ban asbestos as a consequence of ARD burdens. We assessed if and to what extent mesothelioma burden has an impact on a country banning asbestos and obtaining targets for preventative strategies. METHODS: We analysed the status of asbestos ban and mesothe…
Prevalence of Mental Health Problems among Patients Treated by Emergency Medical Teams
It is crucial to provide mental health care following a disaster because the victims tend to experience symptoms such as anxiety and insomnia during the acute phase. However, little research on mental health during the acute phase has been conducted, and reported only in terms of the temporal transition of the number of consultations and symptoms. Thus, the aim of the study was to examine how mental health care needs are accounted for in the over…
Obesity, Burden of Ischemic Heart Diseases and Their Ecological Association
Ischemic heart diseases are the leading cause of death in Uzbekistan. There are numerous risk factors affecting ischemic heart disease, and obesity is one of the major independent risk factors. This study is the first attempt to estimate the ecological association between obesity prevalence and the burden of ischemic heart disease between 1990 and 2019 in Uzbekistan. To define the prevalence of all obesity types, death, and incidences of ischemic…
Empowering Children as Agents of Change to Foster Resilience in Community
The "Creative Heath" project, a participatory school activity to foster community resilience, was implemented in Fukushima, Japan, and children's experiences of the project were assessed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The project consists of three workshops: BODY, FOOD, and ACT, with activities to facilitate students' scientific and creative thinking, working in teams, presenting, and expressing their opinions. The first two schools parti…
Tailoring Digital Tools to Address the Radiation and Health Information Needs of Returnees after a Nuclear Accident
Digital tools are increasingly used for health promotion, but their utility during recovery from a nuclear disaster has yet to be established. This study analysed differences in knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) toward digital tools for radiation protection and health promotion, and preferences for specific application functions, among cohorts living within and outside areas affected by the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station (FDNPS) ac…
User-Guided Design of a Digital Tool for Health Promotion and Radiation Protection
People with a higher eHL had a more positive KAP. For those with a lower eHL, we are formulating easy-to-understand explanations to promote the utilization of the digital tool and enthusiasm for future community-oriented digital tools
The Association between Wearing a Mask and Covid-19
With the widespread and increasing number of cases of Coronavirus Disease (2019) globally, countries have been taking preventive measures against this pandemic. However, there is no universal agreement across cultures on whether wearing face masks are an effective physical intervention against disease transmission. We investigated the relationship between mask wearing and COVID-19 among close contacts of COVID-19 patients in the Hiroshima Prefect…
