Objective. Although the equimolecular mixture of oxygen and nitrous oxide (EMONO) seems a good choice to relieve procedure-related pain in children, it has not been accepted everywhere. In France, rapid spread its use elicited suspicion doubts regarding safety. To assess safety this gas pediatric settings we conducted national survey. Methodology. Centers that had nation- wide invitation participate survey filled out questionnaire after each EMONO administration during 2-month study....
Most studies of neighborhood effects on health have used the multilevel approach. However, since this methodology does not incorporate any notion space, it may provide optimal epidemiologic information when modeling variations or investigating associations between contextual factors and health. Investigating mental disorders due to psychoactive substance use among all 65,830 individuals aged 40-59 years in 2001 Malmö, Sweden, geolocated at their place residence, authors compared a spatial...

In literature on neighbourhood effects and resources accessibility, the number of to which residents may have access are often estimated from spatial units whose constant size fails account for unique ways experience their neighbourhoods. To investigate this ‘constant trap’, we compared numbers healthcare included in Constant Size Buffers (CSBs) Perceived Neighbourhood Polygons (PNPs) cognitive data collected among 653 Paris metropolitan area. We observed that deprived peripheral areas had...

Previous research provides preliminary evidence of spatial variations mental disorders and associations between neighbourhood social context health. This study expands past literature by (1) using techniques, rather than multilevel models, to compare the distributions two groups (that is, due psychoactive substance use, neurotic, stress related, somatoform disorders); (2) investigating independent impact contextual deprivation disorganisation on health, while assessing both magnitude scale...
