Globally, transport and unintentional injuries persist as leading preventable causes of mortality morbidity for adolescents. We sought to report comprehensive trends in injury-related adolescents aged 10-24 years during the past three decades.Using Global Burden Disease, Injuries, Risk Factors 2019 Study, we analysed disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) attributed 204 countries. is reported absolute numbers age-standardised rates per 100 000 population by sex, age group (10-14, 15-19,...
To develop a Climate Change Inequality Health Impact Assessment (CCIHIA) framework for health services; to provide systematic process assessing potential unequal impacts of climate change on vulnerable and marginalised populations places; support effective planning address these impacts; contextually appropriate local strategies. Type program: A collaborative interdisciplinary scoping research project involving two universities districts (LHDs) in New South Wales (NSW) CCIHIA framework. This...
<h3>Background</h3> In March 2010, new child restraint legislation was implemented in NSW, Australia which required passengers up to the age of seven travelling a motor vehicle be restrained an age-appropriate restraint.

INTRODUCTION Australian Aboriginal children, like indigenous children worldwide, experience a disproportionally high burden of unintentional injuries. They are also more likely than other to live in rural and remote socioeconomically disadvantaged areas, which have higher underlying rates injury. Our aim was quantify the relative contributions geographic clustering risk factors inequalities injuries between non-Aboriginal Australia. METHODS Using linked hospital mortality data for state New...

<h3>Background</h3> Despite road safety being a policy priority for decades, transport crashes remain leading cause of injury and death. Young novice drivers are disproportionally affected. <h3>Methods</h3> We used data from 2003/2004 Australian survey young (n=20 806), linked to police-reported crash, hospital death up 2016. generalised linear models estimate the association between protective risk factors with car crash. <h3>Results</h3> After adjusting confounding, lowest socioeconomic...
