Robust contemporary epidemiologic evidence for the population-wide efficacy of reticulated community water fluoridation is required.To evaluate whether associated with national rates severe caries among 4-year-old children in New Zealand after accounting key sociodemographic characteristics.This was a near whole population-level, natural, geospatial cross-sectional study who had health and development assessment as part nationwide B4 School Check screening program conducted between July 1,...
Abstract Background We examined the association between area-level deprivation and dental ambulatory sensitive hospitalizations (ASH) considered moderating effect of community water fluoridation (CWF). The hypothesis was that higher levels are associated with ASH rates CWF will moderate this such children living in most deprived areas have greater health gain from CWF. Methods Dental conditions (dental caries diseases pulp/periapical tissues), age, gender home address identifier (meshblock)...
Abstract High-quality geospatial data are required to examine how the places in which we reside, work and play determine health outcomes; however, seldom is quality of nationwide reported. We examined public drinking water distribution zones (WDZ) across all territorial authorities Aotearoa New Zealand investigate structural inequities quality. In our national dataset WDZ, identified several differences information that associated with population, area-level deprivation, ethnicity most...
The relationship between childhood anthropometric measurements and dental caries has an inconsistent evidence-base. This study investigated experience body mass index (BMI) of children aged 4 years in a national cohort, after accounting for key confounding variables.A near whole-population cross-sectional who had health developmental assessment, as part the nationwide B4 School Check screening program, conducted Aotearoa | New Zealand (ANZ) 1 July 2010 30 June 2021 was studied. extracted...
Abstract Climate change and natural hazard risk assessments often overlook indirect impacts, leading to a limited understanding of the full extent disparities in its distribution across populations. This study investigates distributional justice exploring critical implications for environmental justice, equity, resilience adaptation planning. We employ high‐resolution spatial assessment origin–destination routing analyze coastal flooding sea‐level rise scenarios Aotearoa New Zealand....
Aim Maternal immunisation coverage is suboptimal in Aotearoa New Zealand. Our objective was to highlight discrepancies resulting from how maternal for pertussis and influenza measured
