Neighborhoods influence children's health, so it is important to have measures of neighborhood environments. Using the Child Opportunity Index 2.0, a composite metric conditions that children experience today across US, we present new evidence vast geographic and racial/ethnic inequities in 100 largest metropolitan areas US. Scores range from 20 Fresno, California, 83 Madison, Wisconsin. However, more than 90 percent variation opportunity happens within areas. In 35 these Gap (the difference...
This article seeks to provide one of the first systematic comparative analyses labor market consequences associated with fields study. Using data 22 countries from European Labor Force Surveys (2004 and 2005), we analyze how field study affects unemployment occupational status for university-educated graduates. Our core hypothesis is that relative differences between should increase educational expansion at university level. Results multilevel two-step regressions generally confirm our...
Hospitalizations for ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSCs) are thought to be avoidable with high-quality outpatient care. Morbidity related ACSCs has been associated socioeconomic contextual factors, which do not necessarily capture the complex pathways through a child's environment impacts health outcomes. Our primary objective was test association between multidimensional measure of neighborhood-level child opportunity and pediatric hospitalization rates across 2 metropolitan...
We analyzed how recessions and job loss jointly shape mortality risks among older US adults.
The Child Opportunity Index measures the structural neighborhood context that may influence a child’s healthy development. We examined relationships between and emergency department utilization. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES (COI) is multidimensional measure of Our objective was to determine if COI associated with children’s (ED) utilization using national sample. METHODS This retrospective cohort study Pediatric Health Information Systems, database from 49 United States hospitals. analyzed...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Research has linked neighborhood opportunity to health outcomes in children and adults; however, few studies have examined mortality risk among their caregivers. The objective of this study was assess associations caregivers over 11 years. METHODS Participants included 1 025 000 drawn from the Mortality Disparities American Communities study, a cohort developed by linking 2008 Community Survey National Death Index followed for Neighborhood measured using Child...
Low unionization rates, a falling real federal minimum wage, and outsourcing have hampered wage growth in the low-wage sector US.In recent years, number of private employers opted to institute or raise company-wide wages for their employees, sometimes response public pressure.To what extent do wage-setting changes at major spill over other employers, are broader labor market effects these policies?In this paper, we study by Amazon, Walmart, Target, CVS, Costco using data from millions online...
OBJECTIVE Child Opportunity Index (COI) measures neighborhood contextual factors (education, health and environment, social economic) that may influence child health. Such have been associated with hospitalizations for ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSC). Lower COI has higher utilization, yet association rehospitalization(s) ACSC remains unknown. Our objective is to determine the between rehospitalizations. METHODS Multicenter retrospective cohort study of children ages 0 17 years a...

Job loss in the years before retirement has been found to increase risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but some studies suggest that CVD mortality among older workers declines during recessions. We hypothesized recessionary labor market conditions were associated with reduced persons who did not experience job and increased lost their jobs. In our analyses, we used longitudinal, nationally representative data from Americans 50 age or enrolled Health Retirement Study surveyed every 2 1992...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Few studies have explored the relationship between social drivers of health and pediatric low-value care (LVC). We assessed Childhood Opportunity Index (COI) 2.0 LVC in children’s hospitals. METHODS applied Pediatric Health Information System Calculator to emergency inpatient encounters from July 2021 through June 2022. Proportions with highest (greatest opportunity) lowest COI quintiles were compared. Generalized estimating equation logistic regression models used...
This cross-sectional study assesses the association between Child Opportunity Index and revisits for violent reinjury among children within 1 year of an index firearm-related injury.
Objective Community context influences children’s risk for injury. We aimed to measure the explanatory capacity of two ZIP code-level measures—the Child Opportunity Index V.3.0 (COI) and median household income (MHHI)—for rates paediatric injury hospitalisations. Methods This was a retrospective cross-sectional population-based study children living in 19 US states 2017. examined hospitalisation three categories: physical abuse among <5 years, injuries suspicious infants <12 months...
This cohort study assessed annual changes in the Childhood Opportunity Index, a multidimensional measure of neighborhood conditions associated with health outcomes, for hospital-based encounters.
