Children are more vulnerable to environmental exposures determinant of respiratory diseases due their dynamic developmental physiology. Whereas social determinants health also associated with a higher risk these in children exposed factors, most studies incorporate them as covariates the statistical analysis rather than focusing on specific populations. In this study systematic review searched and selected socioeconomic disadvantage identify factors diseases. The followed PRISMA protocol...

The pandemic had a profound impact on the provision of health services in Cúcuta, Colombia where neighbourhood-level risk Covid-19 has not been investigated. Identifying sociodemographic and environmental factors large cities is key to better estimate its morbidity support strategies targeting specific suburban areas. This study aims identify associated with Cúcuta considering inter -spatial temporal variations disease city's neighbourhoods between 2020 2022.

Abstract Morbidity statistics can be reported as grouped data for health services rather than individual residence area, especially in low-middle income countries. Although such reports support some evidence-based decisions, these are of limited use if the geographical distribution morbidity cannot identified. This study estimates spatial rate Acute respiratory infections (ARI) census districts Cúcuta -Colombia, using an analysis providers. The scope (geographical area influence) each...

Abstract Background Acute respiratory infections (ARI) in Cúcuta -Colombia, have a comparatively high burden of disease associated with public health costs. However, little is known about the epidemiology these diseases city and its distribution within suburban areas. This study addresses this gap by estimating mapping risk ARI identifying most relevant factors. Methods A spatial epidemiological analysis was designed to investigate association sociodemographic environmental factors rate...

The activity patterns of young and adult individuals offer insights into exclusion adaptation dynamics in seabirds. Juveniles often show differences their daily behaviors compared to adults, especially activities like feeding. We focus two contrasting hypotheses explain the age-related Brown Pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis): "competitive exclusion" hypothesis "experience-based adaptation" hypothesis. competitive posits that pelicans, with superior foraging skills, actively exclude juveniles...

Research on urban biodiversity has primarily addressed the effects of urbanization and human activity synergistically as it been virtually impossible to dissociate their impact city wildlife. However, anthropause resulting from COVID–19 lockdowns provided an unprecedented scenario study relative role avian communities. Here we provide evidence relationships between bird species richness in areas Colombia during its strict subsequent relaxed lockdowns. Once lockdown was lifted increased,...
