Impact of health policies on opioid tapering and discontinuation among patients receiving long-term opioid therapy for chronic noncancer pain
Rapid opioid tapering and discontinuation among individuals receiving LTOT were shaped by opioid-related policies in BC. Caution is needed in implementing opioid-related policy to avoid unintended consequences
Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic and Control Measures on Screening and Diagnoses of Type 2 Diabetes in British Columbia
The initial reduced number of screenings and diagnoses followed by the significant upward trend in diabetes diagnoses in the later post-policy phase have important clinical and public health implications. Further research is needed to understand the post-pandemic increase in diabetes among females
A national atlas to improve the study of Canadians living with long Covid (post-Covid-19 condition)
Visible minority status and occupation were associated with increased Covid-19 infection in Greater Vancouver British Columbia between June and November 2020
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted health disparities, especially among specific population groups. This study examines the spatial relationship between the proportion of visible minorities (VM), occupation types and COVID-19 infection in the Greater Vancouver region of British Columbia, Canada. Methods: Provincial COVID-19 case data between June 24, 2020, and November 7, 2020, were aggregated by census dissemination area and linke…
Cohort profile
Purpose: The British Columbia COVID-19 Cohort (BCC19C) was developed from an innovative, dynamic surveillance platform and is accessed/analyzed through a cloud-based environment. The platform integrates recently developed provincial COVID-19 datasets (refreshed daily) with existing administrative holdings and provincial registries (refreshed weekly/monthly). The platform/cohort were established to inform the COVID-19 response in near "real-time" …
Mobility changes following Covid-19 stay-at-home policies varied by socioeconomic measures
In Canada, lower income households and essential workers were disproportionately at risk of SARS-CoV-2. Early in the pandemic, stay-at-home restriction policies were used to limit virus transmission. There remains an evidence gap in how changes in mobility, in response to the policies, varied across socioeconomic measures in Canada. The study objective was to describe the variability in mobility change to two restrictions, by neighborhood-level i…

Association between close interpersonal contact and vaccine hesitancy
Background: Vaccine hesitancy threatens efforts to bring the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic to an end. Given that social or interpersonal contact is an important driver for COVID-19 transmission, understanding the relationship between contact rates and vaccine hesitancy may help identify appropriate targets for strategic intervention. The purpose of this study was to assess the association between interpersonal contact and COVID-19 …
Spike Mutation Profiles Associated With Sars-CoV-2 Breakthrough Infections in Delta Emerging and Predominant Time Periods in British Columbia, Canada
Background: COVID-19 vaccination is a key public health measure in the pandemic response. The rapid evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants introduce new groups of spike protein mutations. These new mutations are thought to aid in the evasion of vaccine-induced immunity and render vaccines less effective. However, not all spike mutations contribute equally to vaccine escape. Previous studies associate mutations with vaccine breakthrough infections (BTI)…
Social Contacts and Transmission of Covid-19 in British Columbia, Canada
Background: Close-contact rates are thought to be a driving force behind the transmission of many infectious respiratory diseases. Yet, contact rates and their relation to transmission and the impact of control measures, are seldom quantified. We quantify the response of contact rates, reported cases and transmission of COVID-19, to public health contact-restriction orders, and examine the associations among these three variables in the province …
Validating viral hepatitis B and C diagnosis codes
Drug-related deaths in a population-level cohort of people living with and without hepatitis C virus in British Columbia, Canada
Prevalence of Injecting Drug Use and Coverage of Interventions to Prevent HIV and Hepatitis C Virus Infection Among People Who Inject Drugs in Canada
Objectives. To determine the number of people who inject drugs (PWID) in Canada and the annual coverage of opioid agonist treatment (OAT) and needle-and-syringe provision for PWID. Methods. We estimated the number of PWID in 11 of 13 Canadian provinces and territories in 2011 by using indirect multiplier methods based on provincial and territorial methadone recipient totals and proportion of surveyed PWID receiving methadone. We modeled annual in…
Hepatitis C virus treatment in people who inject drugs (PWID) in Bangladesh
What is killing people with hepatitis C virus infection? Analysis of a population-based cohort in Canada
Identifying injection drug use and estimating population size of people who inject drugs using healthcare administrative datasets
Global prevalence and genotype distribution of hepatitis C virus infection in 2015
Decreasing Hepatitis C Incidence Among a Population With Repeated Tests
Objectives. We estimated HCV incidence among individuals who repeatedly underwent anti-HCV testing. Methods. We studied HCV-negative individuals who had at least 2 tests between April 1992 and September 2012 in British Columbia, Canada. We calculated incidence as the number of new infections per 100 person-years at risk. Results. From 1992 to 2012, 323 598 individuals who persistently tested negative and 7490 HCV seroconverters contributed 1 774 …
Determinants of low birth weight in urban Pakistan
Objective To identify determinants of low birth weight (LBW) in Karachi, Pakistan, including environmental exposures and nutritional status of the mother during pregnancy. Design Cross-sectional study. Participants Five hundred and forty mother–infant pairs. We interviewed mothers about obstetric history, diet and exposure to Pb. We measured birth weight and blood lead level (BLL). We performed multiple log binomial regression analysis to identif…
Acute health effects of the Tasman Spirit oil spill on residents of Karachi, Pakistan
Results suggest that the occurrence of increased symptoms among the exposed group is more likely to be due to exposure to the crude oil spill
