Recent crises have underscored the importance that housing has in sustaining good health and, equally, its potential to harm health. Considering this and building on Howden-Chapman’s early glossary of WHO Housing Health Guidelines, paper introduces a range health-related terms, reflecting almost 20 years development field. It defines key concepts currently used research, policy practice describe relation inequalities. Definitions are organised by three overarching aspects housing:...
Residential property is reported as the most valuable asset people will own and therefore provides potential to be used a socio-economic status (SES) measure. Location generally recognised important determinant of residential value.Extending well-established relationship between poor health disadvantage role in overall wealth individuals, this study tested predictive value Relative Factor (RLF), SES measure designed reflect location value, six cardiometabolic disease risk factors, central...
This volume presents static maps of SEA [state economic areas] mortality rates for each decade from 1950 to 1980 among white males and females 33 cancer sites along with dynamic illustrating the trends in these [in United States] over time. Although geographic distribution has become more uniform most clusters high-rate areas have persisted several common tumors. However some new patterns appeared notably emergence lung women. Possible explanations peculiarities are considered based on...
A substantial body of research has arisen concerning the relationships between objective residential area features, particularly area-level socioeconomic status and cardiometabolic outcomes. Little explored residents’ perceptions such features how these might relate to Perceptions environments are influenced by individual societal factors, may not correspond reality. Understanding relations environmental health is important for development environment interventions. This study evaluated...
Indicators of cardiometabolic risk typically include non-clinical factors (e.g., smoking). While the incorporation can improve absolute prediction, it is impossible to study contribution when they are both predictors and part outcome measure. Metabolic syndrome, incorporating only clinical measures, seems a solution yet provides no information on severity. The aims this were: 1) construct two continuous indices (cCICRs), assess their accuracy in predicting 10-year incident cardiovascular...
Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women have poorer survival twice the disease burden from breast cancer compared to other Australian women. These disparities are influenced, but not fully explained, by more diagnoses at later stages. Incorporating screening, hospital out of treatment registry records into a person-linked data system can improve our understanding outcomes. We focussed one such on population-based cohort in South Australia diagnosed with matched non-Aboriginal...
The evidence linking socioeconomic environments and metabolic syndrome (MetS) has primarily been based on cross-sectional studies. This study prospectively examined the relationships between area-level position (SEP) incidence of MetS. A prospective cohort design was employed involving 1,877 men women aged 18+ living in metropolitan Adelaide, Australia, all free MetS at baseline. Area-level SEP measures, derived from Census data, included proportion residents completing a university...
Perceived and objective measures of neighbourhood features have shown limited correspondence. Few studies examined whether discordance between individual perceptions environments relates to health. Individuals with mismatched may benefit from initiatives improve understandings resource availability. This study utilised data n = 1491 adult participants in a biomedical cohort evaluate cross-sectional associations access (perceived, objective, perceived-objective mismatch) fruit vegetable...
Individual-level health outcomes are shaped by environmental risk conditions. Norms figure prominently in socio-behavioural theories yet spatial variations health-related norms have rarely been investigated as This study assessed: 1) the contributions of local descriptive for overweight/obesity and dietary behaviour to 10-year change glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), accounting food resource availability; 2) whether associations between HbA1c were moderated availability. HbA1c, representing...
