A closer look at the role of healthcare in the recent mortality decline in the Netherlands
BACKGROUND: Since 2002, Dutch mortality rates decreased rapidly after decades of stagnation. On the basis of indirect evidence, previous research has suggested that this decline was due to a sudden expansion of healthcare. We tested two corollaries of this hypothesis--first, that the decline was concentrated among those with ill-health and second, that the decline can be statistically accounted for by increases in healthcare utilisation. METHODS:…

Educational inequalities in avoidable mortality in Europe
BACKGROUND: The magnitude of educational inequalities in mortality avoidable by medical care in 16 European populations was compared, and the contribution of inequalities in avoidable mortality to educational inequalities in life expectancy in Europe was determined. METHODS: Mortality data were obtained for people aged 30-64 years. For each country, the association between level of education and avoidable mortality was measured with the use of re…
Does socio-economic status predict grip strength in older Europeans? Results from the SHARE study in non-institutionalised men and women aged 50
BACKGROUND: Reduced hand-grip strength predicts disability, morbidity and mortality, but whether it is shaped by socio-economic experiences is yet unknown. The authors examined the association of education, occupation, income and wealth with grip strength in older Europeans. METHODS: Data came from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe comprising 27 351 participants ages 50+ in 11 countries. Grip strength was objectively measured …
Effectiveness of a health promotion programme for long-term unemployed subjects with health problems
BACKGROUND: Employment status is an important determinant of health inequalities. Among unemployed people, poor health decreases the likelihood of re-employment. METHODS: A randomised controlled trial with 6 months' follow-up among unemployed people with health complaints receiving social security benefits from the city of Rotterdam, The Netherlands. In total, 456 people were assigned to the control group and 465 people to the intervention group.…
Effect of nationwide tobacco control policies on smoking cessation in high and low educated groups in 18 European countries
Countries with more developed tobacco control policies have higher quit ratios than countries with less developed tobacco control policies. High and low educated smokers benefit about equally from the nationwide tobacco control policies
Higher mortality in urban neighbourhoods in The Netherlands
BACKGROUND: Urban residents have higher mortality risks than rural residents. These urban-rural differences might be more pronounced within certain demographic subpopulations. AIM: To determine urban-rural differences in all-cause and cause-specific mortality within specific demographic subpopulations of the Dutch population. METHOD: Mortality records with information on gender, age, marital status, region of origin and place of residence were av…
Differences in avoidable mortality between migrants and the native Dutch in the Netherlands
Compared to the native Dutch population, total 'avoidable' mortality was slightly elevated for all migrants combined. Mortality risks varied greatly by cause of death and ethnic origin. The substantial differences in mortality for a few 'avoidable' conditions suggest opportunities for quality improvement within specific areas of the healthcare system targeted to disadvantaged groups
What works in tackling health inequalities? Pathways, policies and practice through the lifecourse
Socioeconomic differences in the prevalence of common chronic diseases
BACKGROUND: Few studies have compared socioeconomic inequalities in the prevalence of both fatal and non-fatal diseases. This paper aims to give the first international overview for several common chronic diseases. METHODS: Micro-level data were pooled from non-standardized national health surveys conducted in eight European countries in the 1990s. Surveys ranged in size from 3700 to 41 200 participants. The prevalence of 17 chronic disease group…

Tackling inequalities in health
Heat dissipation during magnetization reversal processes in magnetic nanoparticles (MNP), upon exposure to alternating magnetic fields (AMF), has been extensively studied in relation to applications in magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH). This current paper demonstrates the design, fabrication, and evaluation of an efficient instrument, operating on this principle, for use as (i) a non-contact, in vitro , real-time temperature monitor; (ii) a drug …

Socioeconomic differences in children's use of physician services in the Nordic countries
Objective: To assess the relation between socioeconomic factors and the use of physician services among children and whether variations of the level of co-payment are correlated with different levels of inequalities in health services use. Design: Description of the socioeconomic differences in the use of health care using data from countrywide postal surveys to parents. Setting: The five Nordic countries in 1996. Subjects: Samples of 15 000 chil…

Socioeconomic inequalities in cardiovascular disease mortality. An international study
BACKGROUND: Differences between socioeconomic groups in mortality from and risk factors for cardiovascular diseases have been reported in many countries. We have made a comparative analysis of these inequalities in the United States and 11 western European countries. The aims of the analysis were (1) to compare the size of inequalities in cardiovascular disease mortality between countries, and (2) to explore the possible contribution of cardiovas…

Recall Bias in Self-reported Childhood Health
This study examines the impact of recall bias on self-reported childhood health. In a population of people aged from 25 to 74 years, childhood health was assessed retrospectively to explore its influence on socio-economic inequalities in adult health. Data were obtained from a postal survey in the baseline of a prospective cohort-study (the Longitudinal Study on Socio-Economic Health Differences in The Netherlands). Childhood health was measured …

Social inequality and death as illustrated in late-medieval death dances
Late-medieval murals and books of the then-popular "dances of death" usually represented the living according to their social standing. These works of art thus provide an interesting opportunity to study the relationship between social inequality and death as it was perceived by the works' commissioners or executers. The social hierarchy in these dances of death is mostly based on the scheme of the three orders of the feudal society; variations r…
