Socio-economic indicators, housing characteristics, site of residence, and substance use as household-level risk factors in GRT-INSPIRED communities
Introduction: Substance use remains a major public health concern in South Africa and disproportionately affects urban communities experiencing socio-economic disadvantage, poor housing conditions, and spatial inequality. While existing research has largely focused on individual-level substance use, less is known about how household socio-economic characteristics, housing conditions, and place of residence shape household-level substance use in u…
Demographic and socio-economic predictors of physical activity among young adults in Lephalale, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Physical inactivity among young adults is an emerging public health concern in low- and middle-income countries. In South Africa, where the burden of non-communicable diseases is high, little research has examined the socio-demographic determinants of physical activity among rural youth populations. This study investigated the demographic and socio-economic predictors of meeting recommended physical activity levels among young adults aged 18–29 y…
The role of triglycerides and HDL in predicting insulin resistance in diabetic and non-diabetic young adults in Lephalale, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Insulin resistance (IR) drives early cardiometabolic risk in low-resource settings, yet gold-standard measures are impractical. We assessed routine lipids, triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and the TG/HDL-C ratio, as predictors of IR in 781 adults aged 20–29 years from the Ellisras Longitudinal Study (Lephalale, Limpopo). IR was defined as HOMA-IR ≥2.5. Participants were 51.8% female and 39.1% diabetic. Diabetic pa…
