  • Does the family affluence scale reflect actual parental earned income, level of education and occupational status? A validation study using register data in Sweden

    Open AccessMaria Corell, Yun Chen et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    The FAS can mainly identify low- and high-income households in Sweden. It may be used as an alternative measure of parental earned income in studies using self-reported socioeconomic status among adolescents

  • An ecological study of chronic kidney disease in five Mesoamerican countries

    Open AccessErik Hansson, Ali Mansourian et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    Mapping routinely collected, already available data could be a first step to identify areas with high CKD burden. The finding of higher CKD burden in hot regions with intense sugarcane cultivation which was repeated in all five countries agree with individual-level studies identifying heavy physical labor in heat as a key CKDnt risk factor. In contrast, no associations between CKD burden and other crops were observed

  • Enhancing the value of mortality data for health systems

    Open AccessLaith Hussain‐Alkhateeb, Laith Hussain-Alkhateeb et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2019

    Half of the world's deaths and their causes pass unrecorded by routine registration systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Verbal autopsy (VA) collects information on medical signs, symptoms and circumstances from witnesses of a death that is used to assign likely medical causes. To further contextualise information on mortality, understanding underlying determinants, such as logistics, barriers to service utilisation and heal…

  • Violence against children in Latin America and the Caribbean

    Open AccessKaren Devries, Katherine G Merrill et al.ARTICLERevista Panamericana de Salud…2019

    Past-year physical and emotional violence by caregivers and students is widespread in LAC across all ages in childhood, as is IPV against girls aged 15 - 19 years. Data collection must be expanded in LAC to monitor progress towards the sustainable development goals, develop effective prevention and response strategies, and shed light on violence relating to organized crime/gangs
