Exploring the Impact of Neighbourhood Social Fragmentation on High Subjective Wellbeing
Subjective wellbeing (SWB) is a key social indicator and a potential determinant of health, yet empirical evidence linking neighbourhood social fragmentation to higher SWB remains limited. This study examined the association between neighbourhood social fragmentation and high SWB among 2,056 adults in the Australian Capital Territory using data from the ‘Living well in the ACT Region’ survey. High SWB was assessed using the Personal Wellbeing Ind…
Built environment pathways to cardiometabolic risk in a 20-minute neighbourhood context
Background The built environment plays a pivotal role in shaping cardiometabolic risk by influencing lifestyle behaviours. The 20-Minute Neighbourhood (20MN) concept, promoting accessible, walkable urban areas, has gained traction as a strategy to improve community health. Objectives This study examined whether neighbourhood built environment features, operationalised within a 20-min, are associated with cardiometabolic risk through indirect beha…
Disparities in primary cardiovascular risks and social determinants
Inequalities in social determinants hinder effective CVD risk prevention. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify ten-year CVD risk in Brunei Darussalam and Iraq and identify associated individual- and community-level factors to improve targeted prevention efforts. Data were from the WHO STEPS national surveys, including 971 participants from Brunei Darussalam and 1,715 from Iraq, aged 40–69. The ten-year CVD risk was calculated using the WHO-201…
Exploring the impact of neighbourhood social fragmentation on early childhood developmental vulnerability
Maintaining social cohesion in the community decreases the chance of developmental vulnerability in children during their first year of full-time schooling. Social initiatives, such as horticulture classes, volunteering programs, and Neighbour Day events, may foster social cohesion in socially fragmented neighbourhoods, supporting children's development during their early years. Additionally, certain physical aspects of the neighbourhood (e.g., a…
The Profiles of Health Aging in Older Ethiopian Adults within the WHO Healthy Aging Framework
The World Health Organisation’s (WHO) Healthy Aging framework describes healthy aging as the maintenance of functional capacity in older adults. However, aging is a heterogeneous process influenced by genetics, lifestyle, and environmental factors, leading to variations in experiences of functional capacity among adults. In this study, Latent Class Analysis (LCA) classified groups of individuals based on their health and functional capacities. Ad…
Prevalence and Factors Associated With Healthy Aging in a Large Representative Community Sample of Older Ethiopians
Objectives: To examine the prevalence and predictors of healthy aging among community-dwelling older adults living in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study included older adults aged 60 and above ( n = 845; M age = 71 years; 56.4% females). Poisson regression estimated the Relative Risk (RR) of factors associated with healthy aging status. Results: 36.7% of respondents were classified as healthy agers. Factors asso…
Population-level risks of alcohol consumption by amount, geography, age, sex, and year
BACKGROUND: The health risks associated with moderate alcohol consumption continue to be debated. Small amounts of alcohol might lower the risk of some health outcomes but increase the risk of others, suggesting that the overall risk depends, in part, on background disease rates, which vary by region, age, sex, and year. METHODS: For this analysis, we constructed burden-weighted dose-response relative risk curves across 22 health outcomes to esti…

A Novel Mixed Methods Approach for Integrating Not-for-Profit Service Data via Qualitative Geographic Information System to Explore Authentic Experiences of Ill-Health
Meeting the mental health needs of rural populations is challenging internationally, with few methods and scarce data available to inform site-specific planning. We developed a mixed methods approach that integrates Not-for-profit (NFP) organization data in a Geographic Information System (GIS) to explore interrelated understandings of mental health experiences in rural places. Integrating qualitative experience data from online forums with quant…
Spatio-temporal epidemiology of the tuberculosis incidence rate in Iran 2008 to 2018
The results provided an overview of the latest TB spatio-temporal status In Iran and identified decreasing trends of TB in the 2008-2018 period. Despite the decreasing incidence rate, there is still need for screening, and targeting of preventive interventions, especially in high-risk areas. Knowledge of the spatio-temporal pattern of TB can be useful for policy development as the information regarding the high-risk areas would contribute to the …
Spatial and temporal analysis of myocardial infarction incidence in Zanjan province, Iran
This study showed that there is a great deal of spatial variations in the pattern of the incidence of MI in Zanjan province. The high incidence rate of MI in the study area compared to the national average, is a warning to local health authorities to determine the possible causes of disease incidence and potential drivers of high-risk areas. The spatial cluster analysis provides new evidence for policy-makers to design tailored interventions to r…

The use of geographical information systems and spatial analyses in modelling and quantifying EMS response time provides a new vein of knowledge for decision makers in emergency services management. Spatial as well as temporal clustering of EMS calls were present in the study area. The reasons for clustering of unfavorable time indices for EMS response requires further exploration. This approach enables policymakers to design tailored interventio…
What Is Rural Adversity, How Does It Affect Wellbeing and What Are the Implications for Action
A growing body of literature recognises the profound impact of adversity on mental health outcomes for people living in rural and remote areas. With the cumulative effects of persistent drought, record-breaking bushfires, limited access to quality health services, the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing economic and social challenges, there is much to understand about the impact of adversity on mental health and wellbeing in rural populations. In this …
Patterns of Service Provision in Older People’s Mental Health Care in Australia
Australia has a population of around 4 million people aged 65 years and over, many of whom are at risk of developing cognitive decline, mental illness, and/or psychological problems associated with physical illnesses. The aim of this study was to describe the pattern of specialised mental healthcare provision (availability, placement capacity, balance of care and diversity) for this age group in urban and rural health districts in Australia. The …
Prevalence of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors in Yazd inner-city municipalities
unhealthy dietary habits and inactivity are the most common modifiable risk factors of CVD in Yazd. Spatial variations of cardiovascular risk factors observed. This geographic health inequality requires more attention from policymakers to control CVD risk factors across different municipalities accordingly. Promoting healthy lifestyle is the top priority of health intervention programs. It is recommended to increase access to sport arenas and res…
Multiple-scale spatial analysis of paediatric, pedestrian road traffic injuries in a major city in North-Eastern Iran 2015–2019
Spatial analysis of PPRTIs in an urban area was carried out at three different geographical scales: the grid network, the neighbourhood and the street level. The resulting documentation contributes reliable support for the implementation and prioritization of preventive strategies, such as improvement of the high-risk streets and neighbourhoods of the city that should lead to decreasing numbers of PPRTIs
How Do Neighbourhood Definitions Influence the Associations between Built Environment and Physical Activity
Researchers investigating relationships between the neighbourhood environment and health first need to decide on the spatial extent of the neighbourhood they are interested in. This decision is an important and ongoing methodological challenge since different methods of defining and delineating neighbourhood boundaries can produce different results. This paper explores this issue in the context of a New Zealand-based study of the relationship bet…
Avoiding the “F” word
Little attention has been given to how feminist geography is defined, applied, and taught in non-Anglophone countries, especially in Muslim majority societies where Women’s Rights are quite different from the western world. The case of Iran among other Middle Eastern countries becomes even more isolated due to the several political, linguistic, and cultural limitations opposed on Iranian academics and international collaborations after the 1979 I…

What qualitative GIS maps tell and don't tell
Qualitative Geographic Information Systems (QGIS) refers to an array of methodological efforts to incorporate into Geographic Information System (GIS) more qualitative data than have traditionally been included. The majority of critical geographers have focused on the advantages of QGIS as an innovative method in feminist geography; however, little attention has been given to its limitations, particularly in non-Western contexts, where sociocultu…
Mapping women in Tehran's public spaces
Functioning public spaces, as ‘public’ political, social, and cultural arenas of citizen discourse, affect not only the citizen's quality of life, but are also indispensable infrastructure in democratic societies. This article offers a nuanced understanding of Iranian women's usage, feelings, and preferences in public spaces in present-day Tehran by not simply importing Western theories that sustain distinctions between traditional and modern wom…
