Integrating portable air purifiers in German daycare centers during the Covid-19 pandemic – A qualitative exploration of usage, maintenance and impact on prevention behaviors
During the COVID-19 pandemic portable air purifiers with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters were suggested as a supplement to other prevention measures. Our previous study in German daycare centers did, however, not show a reduction in COVID-19 prevalence. The current study investigates possible reasons for the absence of preventive effects and examines confounding factors and particularities of the daycare setting. Prevention measure…
Climate-sensitive health counselling for Planetary Health
Healthcare professionals are in a unique societal position that enables them to act as change agents in the required transformation towards climate change mitigation and adaptation, through climate-sensitive health counselling (CSHC). As most studies on the topic come from high-income countries, we conducted a stakeholder workshop in Accra, Ghana, to adapt a framework to the local context.The climate crisis poses significant threats to human and …
One Health, Global Health, Planetary Health, and Social Ecology in vector-borne disease research. A systematic review
Vector-borne diseases with their complex systems dynamics pose major research challenges. Integrated health approaches like One Health, Global Health, Planetary Health, and Social Ecology offer suitable methodologies to tackle the various interrelationships around vector-borne diseases. This review assesses how these approaches are used in 21 th century research on vector-borne diseases.Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) are viral, bacterial, or parasi…
Planetary Health policy? Persistence of modern concepts and pitfalls of implementation
Planetary Health and One Health as two related but distinct answers to the planetary crisis. Both proclaim a paradigm shift towards the interrelatedness of environment and health. We detail some persistent pitfalls undermining this paradigm shift
Planetary Health and social-ecological research in the Anthropocene. An introduction to the Special Focus
Planetary Health, One Health, and Social Ecology converge yet differ in linking human wellbeing with ecological systems. Reflecting on the Anthropocene, we probe whether these frameworks reproduce anthropocentrism or open space for more-than-human justice. Particularly Planetary Health includes an intrinsic political dimension to enable a societal transformation of human civilization. The Special Focus highlights critical reflections on theory, m…
Sufficiency health-wise
Planet Earth is threatened by the human population. Energy and resource use are far beyond the planet’s carrying capacity. Planetary Health suggests an alternative idea of prosperity as the best possible human health for all within planetary boundaries. This implies giving priority to ecology because human health depends ultimately on the integrity of the global biosphere. This paper presents a Health Sufficiency Framework, based on the Doughnut …
Optimised diets for achieving One Health
Dietary changes are needed to align the global food systems with the planetary boundaries and contribute to Sustainable Development Goals. We employed a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) framework, extended with indicators on human health and animal welfare, to assess 2020 food consumption data of a pilot sample collected through an online survey in the Rhine-Ruhr Metropolis (Germany). Feasible optimisation scenarios representing alternative sustainabl…
Silent Triage
The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced clinical care and health service provision in low-income and middle-income countries. Besides having no timely access to routine vaccination, services for non-SARS-CoV-2-related health conditions faced major restraints due to pandemic countermeasures. Serving as an example, outpatient visits, HIV tests conducted and the administration of the Diphtheria-Tetanus- Pertussis (DTP3) vaccine decreased significantly …
The Regeneration of Urban Blue Spaces
Research in recent years has demonstrated that urban surface waters (“urban blue spaces”) can provide beneficial effects on human health and wellbeing. Despite blue spaces prevailing on urban development agendas across the world, little investigation has been done whether and how the regeneration of such spaces is used as a (community-based) public health intervention. Therefore, a review was conducted to analyze urban blue space regeneration pro…
Influence of human-surface water interactions on the transmission of urinary schistosomiasis in the Lower Densu River basin, Ghana
Male children have higher exposure to urinary schistosomiasis than females. • Children of 13 years and above have higher odds of urinay schistosomiasis. • Recreational, domestic and occupational water-contacts have higher odds ratios. • More frequent and longer water-contacts contributed to high odds of blood in urine
