In the context of population ageing, multimorbidity is an increasingly prevalent public health issue that has a substantial impact on both individuals and healthcare systems. Alongside literature looking at risk factors individual level, there growing body research examining role neighbourhoods in development multimorbidity. However, most this work focused physical features place such as air pollution green space, while social have been largely overlooked. study, we therefore explored...
Abstract The ability to manage ill health and care needs might be affected by who a person lives with. This study examined how the risk of unplanned hospitalisation transition living in home varied according household size co-resident multimorbidity. Here we show results from cohort using Welsh nationwide linked healthcare census data, that employed multilevel multistate models account for competing death clustering within households. highest rates were those alone. Event lower all shared...
Abstract Background Measurement of multimorbidity in research is variable, including the choice data source used to ascertain conditions. We compared estimated prevalence and associations with mortality using different sources. Methods A cross-sectional study SAIL Databank 2,340,027 individuals all ages living Wales on 01 January 2019. Comparison constituent 47 conditions from primary care (PC), hospital inpatient (HI), linked PC-HI sources examination between condition count 12-month...
Urbanization comes with the price of negative complexity crime. It is a reflection socio-demographic and permeability factors. This paper aims to integrate crime factors street find association residential burglary spots. We first hotspots area related study area, then identify potential risk areas based on socio-demographics in Akure. The methodology employed includes Inverse Distance Weight factor analysis, space syntax, Poisson regression analysis. findings showed within neighbourhoods,...
This study used GIS to analyse various visitation sequence and routes for tourist sites in Lokoja considering multiple scenarios. was done with a view determining the most efficient vis-à-vis optimizing overall visiting time distance scenarios considered. The main datasets were transportation network geographic coordinates of sites. These collected through comprehensive field survey area. ArcGIS 10.1 Network Analyst Extension software this analysis.

The communities that we live in affect our health ways are complex and hard to define. Moreover, understanding of the place-based processes affecting inequalities is limited. This undermines development robust policy interventions improve local well-being. News media provides social community information may be useful studies. Here propose a methodology for characterising neighbourhoods by using news articles. More specifically, show how can use Natural Language Processing (NLP) unlock...
Abstract Background Multimorbidity has become a global public health challenge. Increasing work identified different individual- and household-level determinants of multimorbidity; however, our understanding how characteristics place affect multimorbidity remains limited. This scoping review aims to identify the place-based risk factors synthesis evidence (longitudinal in particular) on multimorbidity. Methods Following PRISMA-ScR guidelines, predefined search strategy (https://osf.io/bf84m)...
Abstract Background Multimorbidity is a growing global public health challenge, commonly referring to the co-occurrence of 2+ conditions but with varying measurements. Prior evidence has linked social cohesion single conditions; however, its impact on multimorbidity remains unclear. This study aims examine association between area-level and explore whether this will vary across measurements levels urban-rural classification. Methods Using dataset that links Scottish Longitudinal Study (5.3%...
Precise geographical targeting is well recognised as an indispensable intervention strategy for achieving many Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This more cogent health-related goals such the reduction of HIV/AIDS pandemic, which exhibits substantial spatial heterogeneity at various scales (including microscale levels). Despite dire data limitations in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs), it essential to produce fine-scale estimates indicators HIV/AIDS. Existing small-area (SAEs)...
This study examines the indicators of development in rural areas Okene order to determine levels socio-economic by identifying and analysing available indicators.Based on yearnings people, appropriateness as catalysts for their availability selected fifty five (55) areas, forty six (46) were identified evaluated study.The subjected Principal Component Analysis which brought out fourteen (14) dominant that explained variance areas.The (such institutions, agriculture, health facilities, commerce,
Sustainable development can only be achieved by conscious planning and implementation of action plans. Decision making requires a careful selection the right conceptual framework models for processes. Planning process dictate in very clear terms what must done how it is to achieve successful completion activity [1]. Since about 80% data used support decisions are geographically related [3], necessary put Geographic Information Systems (GIS) at core model. There exists great disparity...
Multimorbidity is one of the greatest challenges facing health and social care systems globally. It associated with high rates service use, adverse healthcare events, premature death. Despite its importance, little known about effects contextual determinants such as household area characteristics on outcomes for people multimorbidity. This study protocol presents a plan examination associations between individual, household, important outcomes.The will use cross-section data from SAIL...
