  • A multi-level modeling approach to understanding residential segregation in the United States

    Open AccessMariana C Arcaya, Gabriel L Schwartz et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and Planning B Urban…2018

    A well-known limitation of commonly used segregation measures is their inability to describe patterns at multiple scales. Multi-level modeling approaches can describe how different levels of geography contribute to segregation, but may be difficult to interpret for non-technical audiences and have rarely been applied in the US context. This paper provides a readily interpretable description of multi-scale Black–non-Black segregation in the United…

  • Intergenerational influences on childhood anaemia

    Open AccessNkechi G Onyeneho, Daniel J Corsi et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2018

    Prior research on assessing intergenerational influences on child anaemia has largely approached it from purely maternal perspective. Although there is much merit to focus on that, it is an extremely limited/reductionist view of understanding intergenerational influences. We expanded the intergenerational influences to include the fathers and overall of intergenerational household transfers. We analysed a sample of 19,619 mother-father-offspring …

  • Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Negative Emotions in New York City After a Natural Disaster as Seen in Social Media

    Open AccessOliver Gruebner, Sarah R Lowe et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2018

    Disasters have substantial consequences for population mental health. We used Twitter to (1) extract negative emotions indicating discomfort in New York City (NYC) before, during, and after Superstorm Sandy in 2012. We further aimed to (2) identify whether pre- or peri-disaster discomfort were associated with peri- or post-disaster discomfort, respectively, and to (3) assess geographic variation in discomfort across NYC census tracts over time. O…

Design A population-based cross-sectional study. The nine-item Household Food Insecurity Access Scale captured food insecurity. Five name generator questions elicited network ties. A sixteen-item version of the Hopkins Symptom Checklist for Depression capture…

  • A review of the evidence linking child stunting to economic outcomes

    Mark E Mcgovern, Aradhna Krishna et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2017

    Background: To understand the full impact of stunting in childhood it is important to consider the long-run effects of undernutrition on the outcomes of adults who were affected in early life. Focusing on the costs of stunting provides a means of evaluating the economic case for investing in childhood nutrition. Methods: We review the literature on the association between stunting and undernutrition in childhood and economic outcomes in adulthood…

  • The persistent clustering of adult body mass index by school attended in adolescence

    Clare R Evans, A M Lippert et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2016Citada por: 1Referências: 18

    BACKGROUND: It is well known that adolescent body mass index (BMI) shows school-level clustering. We explore whether school-level clustering of BMI persists into adulthood. METHODS: Multilevel models nesting young adults in schools they attended as adolescents are fit for 3 outcomes: adolescent BMI, self-report adult BMI and measured adult BMI. Sex-stratified and race/ethnicity-stratified (black, Hispanic, white, other) analyses were also conduct…

    OBJECTIVE: To test if the neighborhood socioeconomic status is associated with systolic blood pressure and hypertension in older adults. METHODS: A cross-sectional population-based study with a sample of 1,705 older adults from Florianópolis, SC, Southern Brazil. The contextual variable used was the average years of schooling of the head of the household in census tracts. Participants were considered hypertensive when the systolic blood pressure …

  • Event-level association between alcohol use and unprotected sex during last sex

    Open AccessSusan M Kiene, V Subramanian et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    These data indicate a need to implement HIV prevention efforts that consider the role of alcohol use in precipitating unprotected sex and how it varies based upon partner type

  • School environment as predictor of teacher sick leave

    Open AccessJenni Ervasti, Mika Kivimäki et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2012

    Good and improved IAQ are associated with decreased teacher absenteeism. While pupil-related psychosocial factors also contribute to sick leaves, no effect modification or mediation of psychosocial factors on the association between IAQ and sick leave was observed

  • Organizational Justice in Primary-Care Health Centers and Glycemic Control in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

    Marianna Virtanen, Tuula Oksanen et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2012Referências: 18

    BACKGROUND: Organizational justice has been put forward as a measure of leadership quality that is associated with better health among employees. OBJECTIVES: We extended that idea to test whether perceived organizational justice among health care providers might be positively associated with glycemic control among their diabetic patients. SETTING: Eighteen primary-care health centers (HCs) in Finland. PARTICIPANTS: Type 2 diabetes patients (n=895…

  • Lifecourse socioeconomic circumstances and multimorbidity among older adults

    Open AccessReginald D Tucker-Seeley, Reginald Tucker-Seeley et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2011

    This study shows that childhood financial hardship and lifetime earnings are associated with multimorbidity, but not associated with the absence of morbidity. Lifetime earnings modified the association between childhood financial hardship and multimorbidity suggesting that this association is differentially influential depending on earnings across young and middle adulthood. Further research is needed to elucidate lifecourse socioeconomic pathway…

Food purchasing was measured on the basis of c…

  • Transdisciplinary research strategies for understanding socially patterned disease

    Open AccessRosalind J Wright, Shakira F Suglia et al.ARTICLECiência & Saúde Coletiva2008

    As we have seen a global increase in asthma in the past three decades it has also become clear that it is a socially patterned disease, based on demographic and socioeconomic indicators clustered by areas of residence. This trend is not readily explained by traditional genetic paradigms or physical environmental exposures when considered alone. This has led to consideration of the interplay among physical and psychosocial environmental hazards an…
