Neighborhood-level deprivation measures in the United States
The extent to which existing measures cover the spectrum of neighborhood-level social determinants of health (SDOH) has not yet been assessed. This review compared the content of U.S.-based neighborhood-level SDOH measures and summarized the use of these measures in empirical research. We conducted a comprehensive search on PubMed and Google Scholar, identifying review articles published from 1990–2023, and complemented this search by manually ex…
A Distant Dream
After liberating Korea from the Japanese in 1945, the U.S. military government criticized the nursing activities developed during the colonial period and began to promote public health. Public health nursing was new and exciting for Korean nurses, accustomed to a role as doctor’s assistants rather than professionals in their own right. The establishment and expansion of public health centers provided an opportunity for public health nursing to gr…
Trends in Sedentary Behavior Among the US Population, 2001-2016
Importance: Prolonged sitting, particularly watching television or videos, has been associated with increased risk of multiple diseases and mortality. However, changes in sedentary behaviors over time have not been well described in the United States. Objective: To evaluate patterns and temporal trends in sedentary behaviors and sociodemographic and lifestyle correlates in the US population. Design, Setting, and Participants: A serial, cross-sect…
Association of Leisure-Time Physical Activity With Risk of 26 Types of Cancer in 1.44 Million Adults
IMPORTANCE: Leisure-time physical activity has been associated with lower risk of heart-disease and all-cause mortality, but its association with risk of cancer is not well understood. OBJECTIVE: To determine the association of leisure-time physical activity with incidence of common types of cancer and whether associations vary by body size and/or smoking. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: We pooled data from 12 prospective US and European cohor…
Body Mass Index and Risk of Death in Asian Americans
Objectives. We investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality among Asian Americans. Methods. We pooled data from prospective cohort studies with 20 672 Asian American adults with no baseline cancer or heart disease history. We estimated hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) with Cox proportional hazards models. Results. A high, but not low, BMI was associated with increased risk of total mortality among indiv…
Health Status, Neighborhood Socioeconomic Context, and Premature Mortality in the United States
Objectives. We examined whether the risk of premature mortality associated with living in socioeconomically deprived neighborhoods varies according to the health status of individuals. Methods. Community-dwelling adults (n = 566 402; age = 50–71 years) in 6 US states and 2 metropolitan areas participated in the ongoing prospective National Institutes of Health–AARP Diet and Health Study, which began in 1995. We used baseline data for 565 679 part…
P1-355 Long-term PM 2.5 air pollution exposure and mortality among California residents in the NIH-Aarp cohort
Introduction Epidemiological studies indicate that exposure to fine particulate matter air pollution mass (PM 2.5 ) is associated with an increased risk of premature mortality. Pope et al (2002, 2004) reported elevated mortality risks of long-term PM 2.5 exposure in the USA nationwide American Cancer Society (ACS) CP-II cohort, finding a total mortality risk of RR=1.04 per 10 ug/m 3 (95% CI 1.01 to 1.08), and a cardiovascular mortality RR=1.12 pe…
Body-Mass Index and Mortality among 1.46 Million White Adults
BACKGROUND: A high body-mass index (BMI, the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) is associated with increased mortality from cardiovascular disease and certain cancers, but the precise relationship between BMI and all-cause mortality remains uncertain. METHODS: We used Cox regression to estimate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for an association between BMI and all-cause mortality, adjusting for age, stud…
