  • Trajectories and inequalities in routine healthcare uptake from adolescence to retirement

    Open AccessCornelia Wagner, Vladimir Jolidon et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2026

    Background Regular uptake of routine healthcare services can support disease prevention, early detection, monitoring, and timely treatment. Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations often face barriers to healthcare use. However, little is known about how routine healthcare uptake, and inequalities within it, unfold across the life course, or whether these trajectories differ by gender and birth cohort. Methods We used retrospectively collected…

  • ‘A gendered family affair’? Examining the role of partners', parents', and parents-in-law's education in preventive healthcare use among older men and women

    Open AccessKatrijn Delaruelle, Vladimir Jolidon et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2026

    This study aims to extend the body of research on educational inequalities in preventive healthcare practices among older adults, and their intergenerational reproduction, by investigating the role of family spillovers. Beyond the influence of individuals' own education, we examine how partner's, parents', and parents-in-law's educational attainment relate to participation in colorectal cancer screening and flu vaccination, with particular attent…

  • Antidepressant discontinuation in France from an intersectional perspective

    Open AccessEugenia Alcalde, Glenn Leckie et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2026

    Antidepressant (AD) discontinuation before remission is common in depression care, despite guidelines recommending continuation for six months after remission to prevent relapse. Evidence suggests that socially disadvantaged groups are more likely to discontinue treatment despite higher depression severity, which may contribute to widening inequalities in mental health care. Most studies focus on single social characteristics rather than consider…

  • Cancer screening outside of age recommendations

    Open AccessFrerik Smit, Vladimir Jolidon et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    Cancer screening outside of recommendations is highly prevalent, particularly among older adults. Further research is needed to better understand drivers of this form of low-value care

  • Lack of social support, gender and colorectal cancer screening participation across Europe

    Open AccessVladimir Jolidon, Vincent De Prez et al.ARTICLESociology of Health & Illness2024Citada por: 1Referências: 16

    This study investigates how a lack of social support differentially affects men and women’s colorectal cancer (CRC) screening participation, considering different screening strategies implemented across European countries. Although health sociology has stressed gender differences in social support and its effects on health behaviours, this was overlooked by cancer screening research. Using a data set of 65,961 women and 55,602 men in 31 European …

  • Revisiting the Effects of Organized Mammography Programs on Inequalities in Breast Screening Uptake

    Open AccessVladimir Jolidon, Vincent De Prez et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    This study revisits the effects of mammography screening programs on inequalities in breast screening uptake in Switzerland. The progressive introduction of regional mammography programs by 12 out of the 26 Swiss cantons (regions) since 1999 offers an opportunity to perform an ecological quasi-experimental study. We examine absolute income and marital status inequalities in mammography uptake, and whether the cantons' implementation of mammograph…

  • Gender inequality and mammography screening

    Open AccessVladimir JolidonARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2022Referências: 55

    Macrolevel gender inequality is defined as the unequal distribution of power and resources between men and women shaped by macrolevel social structures and institutions. An emerging line of health research is emphasising its negative consequences on women's health and healthcare access. The present study examines how gender inequality contexts affect women's mammography screening uptake. It adopts a macrosociological and institutionalist approach…

  • Macro-contextual determinants of cancer screening participation and inequalities

    Open AccessVladimir Jolidon, Piet Bracke et al.ARTICLESSM - Population Health2021

    Overall, our results show that social protection policies and healthcare system features affect cancer screening participation. We conclude that institutional and policy arrangements interact with individuals' (educational) resources and, through the (re)distribution of valued goods and resources at the macro level, these arrangements may contribute to enhancing preventive healthcare use and mitigating screening uptake inequalities

  • Cervical cancer screening programs and their context-dependent effect on inequalities in screening uptake

    Open AccessVincent De Prez, Vladimir Jolidon et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2021

    This study indicates that the combination of organized screening and high accessibility of the healthcare system or social protection is essential for having lower levels of inequality in CCS uptake. In such countries, the structural threshold for poorer and lower educated women to engage in CCS is lower. This may be explained by them having a better interaction with their GP, who may convince them of the screening test, lower out-of-pocket payme…

  • Never and under cervical cancer screening in Switzerland and Belgium

    Open AccessVladimir Jolidon, Vincent De Prez et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2020

    Findings revealed that determinants of screening inequalities differed among never- and under-screeners and hence these should be addressed with different public health strategies. Crucially, socioeconomic and demographic inequalities were more pronounced among never-screeners who appeared to face more structural and persistent inequalities. Differences between the two countries should also be noted. The more liberal-type Swiss healthcare systems…

  • Cancer Screening Participation and Gender Stratification in Europe

    Open AccessBarbara Willems, Stéphane Cullati et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health and Social…2020Referências: 69

    The current study examines whether the extent of macrolevel gender inequality affects the association between women’s educational attainment and their participation in cervical and breast cancer screening and how this relationship is moderated by a country’s cancer screening strategy (organized vs. opportunistic). A multilevel design with women (N cervical = 99,794; N breast = 55,021) nested in 30 European countries was used to analyze data from …
