Abstract:
Karina Becker, Thomas Engel, Lena Grebenstein und Laura Ku?nzel: Gender Health Gap: Gesundheitsbezogene Ungleichheit zwischen den Geschlechtern in der Arbeit. In dieser Arbeit werden die gesundheitsbezogenen Unterschiede von Belastungen und Ressourcen zwischen den Geschlechtern in der Lohnarbeit in Deutschland analysiert. Um das Problem zu kontextualisieren werden aktuelle Diskussionen der Arbeitssoziologie sowie feministischer Theorie nachgezeichnet. Die Datenbasis unserer Analyse stellt die BiBB/BAuA-Erwerbstätigenbefragung dar. Wir gruppieren die Arbeitnehmer*innen in elf Berufsklassen, die sich auf der Basis des von Daniel Oesch entwickelten Schemas anhand von Arbeitslogik und Bildungsniveau ergeben. In der interpersonellen und der technischen Arbeitslogik stellen wir eine Gratifikationskrise fest, von der Frauen besonders stark betroffen sind. Hohe psychische Belastungen stehen hier einer geringen Ausstattung mit ausgleichenden Ressourcen gegenüber. In unserem Fazit diskutieren wir Ursachen und mögliche Lösungsstrategien für diese nachgewiesene gesundheitliche Diskriminierung von Frauen in der Lohnarbeit.

Abstract:
One way of characterising the good society is one that has achieved a high degree of health equity. For a low-income country, one route to this achievement is to increase national income. But other features of society come to the fore, for low, middle and high-income societies alike. In England, my review of health inequalities highlighted: good early child development, education and life long learning, employment and working conditions, having enough income to lead a healthy life, healthy and sustainable places to live and work, taking a social determinants approach to prevention. Taking action on these requires commitment and cross-government action.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Transferring cost-effectiveness information between geographic domains offers the potential for more efficient use of analytical resources. However, it is difficult for decision-makers to know when they can rely on costeffectiveness evidence produced for another context. Objectives: This thesis explores the transferability of economic evaluation results produced for one geographic area to another location of interest, and develops an approach to identify factors to predict when this is appropriate. Methods: Multilevel statistical models were developed for the integration of published international costeffectiveness data to assess the impact of contextual effects on country-level; whilst controlling for baseline characteristics within, and across, a set of economic evaluation studies. Explanatory variables were derived from a list of factors suggested in the literature as possible constraints on the transferability of costeffectiveness evidence. The approach was illustrated using published estimates of the cost-effectiveness of statins for the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease from 67 studies and related to 23 geographic domains, together with covariates on data, study and country-level. Results: The proportion of variation at the country-level observed depends on the appropriate multilevel model structure and never exceeds 15% for incremental effects and 21% for incremental cost. Key sources of variability are patient and disease characteristics, intervention cost and a number of methodological characteristics defined on the data-level. There were fewer significant covariates on the study and country-levels. Conclusions: Analysis suggests that variability in cost-effectiveness data is primarily due to differences between studies, not countries. Further, comparing different models suggests that data from multinational studies severely underestimates country-level variability. Additional research is needed to test the robustness of these conclusions on other sets of cost-effectiveness data, to further explore the appropriate set of covariates, and to foster the development of multilevel statistical modelling for economic evaluation data in health.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the association between the age gap between parents and health outcomes for children in Sub-Saharan Africa. An average man-older age gap between partners has been observed all over the world and is the largest in many Sub-Saharan African countries. A large age gap is common in patriarchal societies and has been associated with less female autonomy and impeded decision-making for the couple, resulting in less contraceptive use and a possible higher risk of interpersonal violence. This thesis examines another association with age gaps by focusing on the health outcomes for children in families with large and small age gaps between the mother and her partner. It is hypothesized that children will have worse health outcomes in families where the age gap between the mother’s partner and the mother herself is larger than average. Using data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS), multilevel logistic regression is run to test the association between three health indicators while controlling for confounding variables such as mother’s age, education level and wealth. The health indicators are treatment of fevers, vaccination against measles and underweight. The results show some statistically significant associations, with all three variables supporting the hypothesis that children in age heterogamous families are doing worse. Children of couples with a larger than average age gap have lower likelihood of being treated for fever or cough, and a higher likelihood of being underweight, and children of couples with a smaller than average age gap have a higher likelihood of having received the first measles vaccination. The results show that the age gap between parents is a factor to take into consideration when studying child health and family structures in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract:
The state of global health and wellbeing is threatened by the pervasive and dangerous decision to engage in unprotected sex. Only male or female condoms can prevent the spread of both sexually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancies. Despite this, condoms remain dangerously underused because of the perception that they diminish sexual pleasure. The pleasure gap in the design and promotion of condoms cripples sexual health outcomes. Acknowledging and harnessing the power of pleasure in sexual-decision making is key to increasing condom use.

Abstract:
The international trading system has a role to play in ensuring that its primary objective of trade liberalisation does not come at the expense of environmental and health concerns. The goal of this thesis is to evaluate the efforts that have been made by the WTO to integrate environmental/health issues in the international trade system and to propose ways of achieving greater linkage between these areas by performing both a legal and economic analysis of the subject. The various ways in which linkage occurs in the WTO are analysed, in particular, through the exceptions to the most-favoured-nation standard contained in Article XX of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Agreement and Technical Barriers to Trade Agreement, scientific assessments, the acceptance of eco-labelling initiatives, the interpretation of WTO rules in the light of rules of public international law, the incorporation of environmental principles and overarching norms, as well as the coherence between the TWO and multilateral environmental agreements. The WTO’s legislative arm and the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) are both crucial in providing coherence between environmental/health and free trade goals. It is argued, however, that linkage through the legislative arm would enable WTO members to retain more control over the WTO agreements and achieve the highest degree of coherence between environmental/health protection and free trade goals despite the fact that due to the high transaction costs of clarifying existing rules or devising new ones, linkage through the interpretations given by the DSB is a less burdensome way of filing the gaps of an incomplete contract. Although coherence between environmental/health and free trade goals can and should be increased, it is concluded that it would be unrealistic to expect that the international trading system achieve a degree of linkage that is acceptable to all WTO Members in all circumstances. In this respect, the question of whether Members should be able to maintain WTO inconsistent measures, if compensation is paid or if concessions are suspended or withdrawn is examined.

Roberts, Max T. "Contributors to Wisconsin’s Persistent Black-White Gap in Life Expectancy." DigitalCommons@USU, 2017. https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/etd/6756.

Full text
Abstract:
For decades, blacks have faced shorter life expectancy than their white counterparts. This persistent disparity has led to a gap in life expectancy between the two groups. Nationally, this gap has decreased over the last 40 years. However, this is not the case at the state-level as some states have experienced little or no improvement in the life expectancy gap. Such is the case in Wisconsin, where the life expectancy gap is the largest in the nation for males, and the gap actually has grown for females over the last two decades. This study seeks to examine this persistent gap in Wisconsin by looking at different causes of death and the ages when they contribute most to the gap. Additionally, this study will examine how the contribution of certain causes of death have changed over time, both between blacks and whites, and also within each group. Using 1999-2001 and 2009-2011 data from the National Center for Health Statistics, this study found that heart disease and malignant neoplasms (cancer) contributed most to the life expectancy gap between blacks and whites and also over time within each group. For females, diabetes and perinatal conditions were found to be top contributors to the black-white gap. Diabetes contributed most after the age of 50. For males, homicide was found to be a top contributor to the black-white gap, particularly among youth aged 15 to 29. Homicide among males frequently ranked near heart disease and malignant neoplasms as a leading contributor to the gap. These findings tell us that by reducing death rates from these causes at particular moments in the life course, the life expectancy gap between blacks and whites can be reduced. This study provides important evidence that health policy makers can use to address racial disparities in life expectancy.

Bhandari, Ramjee. "Mind the gap : geographical inequalities in health during the age of austerity." Thesis, Durham University, 2018. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/12803/.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Stockton-on-Tees has the highest geographical inequalities in health in England, with the life expectancy at birth gap between the most and deprived neighbourhoods standing at over 17 years for men and 11 years for women. It is well acknowledged that place can create inequalities in health but there is a debate within geographical research as to whether the health and wellbeing of an individual are determined by their own attributes (the compositional theory) or the political economy and environmental attributes of the area where they live (contextual approach). More recently, it has been argued that these determinants interact with each other, signifying that they are ‘mutually reinforcing’. Method This is one of the first studies that provides the detailed empirical examination of the geographical health divide by estimating the gap and trend in physical and general health (as measured by EQ5D, EQ5D-VAS and SF8PCS) between the most and least deprived areas. It uses a novel statistical technique to examine the causal role of compositional and contextual factors and their interaction during a time of economic recession and austerity. Using a longitudinal survey that recruited a stratified random sample, individual-level survey data was combined with secondary data sources and analysed using multi-level models with 95 percent confidence intervals obtained from nonparametric bootstrapping. In addition, trend analysis was performed to explore the role of austerity. Results The main findings indicate that there is a significant gap in health between the two areas, which remained constant throughout the study period, and that compositional level material factors, contextual factors and their interaction appear to explain this gap. Contrary to the dominant policy discourse in this area, individual behavioural and psychosocial factors did not make a significant contribution towards explaining health inequalities in the study area. Austerity measures are exacerbating inequalities in general and physical health by disproportionately impacting those in deprived areas. The findings are discussed in relation to geographical theories of health inequalities and the context of austerity. The study concludes by exploring the avenues for further research and key policy implications.

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD
This study addresses the issue of the low participation in or enrolment of the poor in Ghana’s National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS). The low enrolment of the poor in the NHIS is attributed to the difficulty in identifying who qualifies for exemptions from paying health insurance premiums. In an attempt to address this problem, the purpose of this study was, therefore, to develop a model for identifying very poor households for health insurance premium exemptions in the Kassena-Nankana District of Northern Ghana in an effort to increase their access to equitable health care

Abstract:
Women live longer but can expect to spend more years in poorer health compared to men. In the context of population aging and declining gender ratios at older ages, there are increasing concerns about how this disadvantage in female health will affect well-being and sustainability, particularly in developing regions that are rapidly aging. Our study compares differences in health expectancies at older ages for men and women in order to assess gender disparities in health.We use data from the Survey on Health, Well-Being, and Aging in Latin America and the Caribbean to decompose the gender gap into total and age-specific mortality and disability effects in seven cities in the region. Our results show that at older ages, higher disability rates among women reduced the gender gap in healthy life expectancy by offsetting women’s mortality advantage. In addition, we find that women’s mortality advantage decreased almost systematically with age, which reduced the contribution of the mortality effect to the gender gap at older ages. Although the gender gap in health followed a similar pattern across the region, its decomposition into mortality and disability effects reveals that there was substantial variation among cities. Thus, across the region, the implications of the gender gap in health for well-being vary, and the policies aimed at reducing this gap should also differ.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: a. Question • What kind of mental health services that international students can access in UK higher education? b. Objectives • to systematically search and identify the range of mental health services that international students in UK higher education can access. • to gather and display evidence on health care and services to maintain or enhance mental health conditions of mental health services in the UK. • to collect clusters of existing evidence and gaps to inform the potential literature review design. Background: Mental health is already a significant global issue in higher education (Alonso et al., 2018; Auerbach et al., 2016a, 2016b; Mortier et al., 2018). As the WHO argued, there is no health without mental health (DH, 2011; Prince et al., 2007; WHO, 2018, 2021, 2022a). Higher education students who are far away from home, lack social support and face language and cultural differences are the vulnerable populations in terms of mental health compared with home students (Blackmore et al., 2019; Forbes-Mewett & Sawyer, 2016, 2019; Minutillo et al., 2020; Sachpasidi & Georgiadou, 2018; Sherry et al., 2010). As a critical industry, UK higher education has the second-largest group of international higher education students globally (Department for Education & Department for International Trade, 2021; QS, 2019; QS Enrolment Solutions, 2021; Universities UK, 2021a, 2021b). However, compared with home students, international students are less likely to use mental health services in UK higher education. Attention to the mental health conditions of international students in UK higher education has more possibility to be improved in this country (HESA, 2021; Orygen, 2020; Quinn, 2020).
