Abstract:
Infec­tious etiology in acute diarrhea, referred several gastrointestinal diseases, Most are gastroenteri­tis associated with clinical signs and symptoms including: nausea, vomiting, abdomi­nal pain and cramps, bloating, flatulence, fever, passage of bloody stools, tenesmus, and fecal ur­gency disorders. Diarrheal illness is a large worldwide public health problem, with substantial regional variation, in the prevalence of medical signs by being caused by specific pathogens. Infectious diarrheal diseases, are the second leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and can cause real public health concerns. Such diarrhea was studied as a medical disorder, in a 3 years period, 2017 to 2020, in Transylvania a large region in Romania. It was found there, 3577 number of diarrheal diseases cases, appeared almost during July to August. The case incidence for the disease arrived at 65%, in the entire summer season. The cases data were transmitted by 12 district Sanitary Polices, to the Public Health Center Cluj. Cases were almost diagnosed by the family doctors of the region, in more then 50%. Few of this have need some days of hospitalization, because of several disease disorders, in which case it was used a specific adequate fluid and electrolyte replacement as key of the treatment, for managing diarrheal illnesses. Even so, 3 children under 5 years age died, because of severe complications. It was remarked so, organic failed who was estimate to be the cause of their deaths. Clinical and epidemiological evaluations were done and even defined the severity and type of this mentioned illnesses. The detected infectious etiology for the acute diarrheas, where determined in authorized Microbiology laboratories, where were identified: Shigella spp, Salmonella spp, Campylobacter spp, Yersinia spp, Rotavirus, Giardia. Most number of cases appeared in children, being suggestive in 63%, followed by elderly or adult people in 17% each. Acute diarrheal illness had to be considered a major public health issue, against which some determined control efforts are needed. Public health surveillance of infectious acute diarrhea, includes obligatory done strategies for a correct infection control.

Abstract:
Public health specialists can be described as leaders of the ‘upstream health workforce’, concerned with preventing unnecessary and ‘revolving door’ contact with health services. Achieving this requires working to promote good health, improve health services and protect populations from infectious disease and environmental risks. Public health work is based upon the recognition that populations are complex constructions of groups of individuals, who may or may not seek help for health problems or be able effectively to take action to improve their own health. This article will define key areas of public health practice giving specific examples of the role of the public health specialist in the UK, as well as how and why primary care professionals might access specialist advice. The examples demonstrate the great potential for improving population health through the complementary efforts of primary care and public health professionals.

Abstract:
Empowered patient or empowered physician. An analysis of the importance of the gatekeeper in the health delivery system. This paper examines the important role of the gatekeeper in the health delivery system. A simple theoretical model is developed which compares the resource allocation when physicians act as gatekeepers with the decisions taken when patients are empowered. It is shown that even when there is no asymmetry of information---and so patients and doctors are equally able to identify the appropriate therapy---that the institutional arrangement matters. Patients demand more time with physicians when they are empowered whereas physicians want to spend more time developing their expertise when they are empowered. The reaction of physicians and patients to changes in policy instruments also differs across institutional arrangements. The analysis also draws attention to the design of the compensation scheme for physicians, and investigates the benefits of using a non-linear scheme. Wealth, health, and the pursuit of happiness. This paper provides a theoretical framework to illustrate the relationship between income, utility maximization, and healthy choices. The analysis indicates that the choices of individuals who maximize utility are not the same as those arising were the individual to maximize wellness. In fact, rational individuals will over-eat and under-exercise relative to health maximizing levels. Yet as individuals get wealthier, they have better health. The paper also compares different strategies for health promotion. Income redistribution may lead to a net increase in population health and in social welfare. By contrast, policies that specifically target lifestyle choices may succeed in persuading citizens to choose a health-maximizing lifestyle, but result in a net welfare loss to society. An empirical investigation of household income and income polices on obesity in Canada. Using the master files of the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS), this paper examines the effect of income on obesity and individuals' body-mass index. An instrumental variable technique is employed to derive consistent estimates of this effect and to take account of the possible endogeneity between income and body weight. It is found that higher income will lead to lower body weight for women, while its effect on the body-weight outcome of men is unclear. This chapter uses the estimates of the relationship between income and body weight to simulate the impact of government income policies---like social assistance and child support---on obesity. It is shown that incomes policies may not only decrease income inequality but may also contribute to a lower incidence of obesity amongst the poorer population thus decreasing overall health care costs.

Abstract:

A college community health improvement plan (CHIP) focusing on the indicators of nutrition and weight status, and physical activity and fitness is designed with the goal of reducing obesity risk, improving health, and preventing chronic disease. The precede proceed model, logic model, innovative care for chronic conditions model, self-care theory, and Bandura’s social cognitive learning theory were used as a research design framework for assessing, planning, and managing sustainability through a two-year college health clinic. The research questions were: what are the current health promotion inputs and activities in terms of environment, ecology, education, and policy and could be supplemented to improve outputs and health outcomes? An integrated review of the literature, observation of the site, regulatory investigation, and focus group sessions were the methods of data collection. The precede-proceed model provided the analytical strategies to assess initiatives and resources, and to determine supplementary initiatives and resources. Results showed that environmental, educational, administrative, and policy resources were available but limited and not well promoted. Conclusions were that health promotion, wellness staffing, and education exist, but are underutilized, under promoted, and funding is necessary. Recommendations include a wellness program, increased activity initiatives, case management, grant funding, and increased community partnerships. The contribution to nursing is to fill a gap-in-practice for health planning in 2-year colleges. The implications for positive social change are improved knowledge, sustained health behaviors, decreased amount of obesity, improved health outcomes and quality of life, decreased chronic diseases, and lower healthcare costs.

Abstract:
Background: After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990, fifteen former Soviet Union countries (fSU) have been undergoing transition. The Belarusian rate of transition has been slower than the others, and population health is likely to have been affected differently. Aims: This study aimed to explore changes in population health in Belarus between 1990 and 2010, and to analyse and describe changes in the health status of Belarusians between 2001 and 2010. Methods: A mixed-method study was conducted, comprising: (i) a review of the published literature, (ii) an analysis of routine health-related statistics, (iii) a review of the national public health reforms, (iv) a secondary analysis of data from two population surveys conducted in Belarus in 2001 and 2010, and (v) a statistical analysis of data from a new Health Category Response Scale (HRCS) survey. Results: Population health initially deteriorated as living standards fell in the early 1990's. An increase in morbidity and mortality from the major non-communicable diseases, and a decrease in life expectancy, followed patterns of increasing hyperinflation and rising unemployment. Around 1994, the economic situation reversed. Major public health reforms were implemented from 1999. Around 2000, mortality indicators for some diseases improved, but not all, while morbidity continued to increase. The secondary analysis of the cross-sectional data (2001 and 2010) and the HCRS survey conducted in Belarus in 2010 showed that Belarusians perceived their health to be better in 2010 than in 2001. Conclusions: In the early 1990's, population health in Belarus deteriorated. Around 2000, some mortality health indicators showed improvement, but by 2010, they had not yet reached their 1990 levels. In contrast, morbidity health indicators continued to deteriorate throughout 1990 to 2010.

Abstract:
Post-conflict, ‘fragile’ nations face significant health, social, economic and political challenges. The international community is, on the whole, organised and effective in assisting these nations to address urgent priorities. Often, however, prioritisation of immediate concerns has resulted in less focus being given to capacity building, including the fostering of lasting, effective and autonomous systems within these nations.This study examined the post-conflict, transitional nation of Timor-Leste. In particular, it focused on the potential for a health systems-strengthening approach, public health law, to improve the exceptionally poor level of population health found in Timor-Leste. Public health law has a long history within the developed world of success in facilitating the prevention and control of disease. The extent to which law can assist in addressing key health concerns within the developing world has, however, attracted little attention to date.This thesis documents a social and political history of Timor-Leste and provides a review of selected population health indicators. An overview of the Timorese health and legal systems is provided with a focus on system capacity, existing public health law and reported strategic directions. The review is complemented by a survey of 245 residents of Dili, the capital of Timor-Leste, in order to ascertain levels of community awareness of, and support for, selected existing public health laws. Further context was provided through in-depth interviews with 19 health and legal professionals living and working in Timor-Leste. Importantly the study was designed and conducted according to guidance provided by four Timorese cultural advisors.Awareness of law is clearly essential if it is to be effective as a preventive intervention. Community support for law is arguably also fundamental if there is to be widespread adherence to law and political willingness to pursue law reform. Key dependent variables within the community survey and interviews with professionals included awareness of, and support for, public health law amongst a suite of specific regulatory areas including road safety, the sale of alcohol and tobacco to children, food safety and water safety. These areas were selected due to their existing or steadily increasing importance in the developing world. Quantitative analytical methods included Chi-square for examining differences between survey sub-groups, and Kendall’s tau-b for examining correlations between ordinal variables. Qualitative data from interviews was subject to thematic analysis.Analysis of survey and interview data highlighted a poor level of awareness of selected existing public health laws in Timor-Leste amongst participating community members and health and legal professionals. A number of demographic factors were identified as being statistically associated with levels of awareness within the community and these provide direction for future educative efforts. Encouragingly, this study has also identified a strong level of support for public health law amongst both community and professional groups. Support was high for the legal approach to health law overall and for each of the regulatory areas examined. Attitudinal factors associated with community support were identified and these provide guidance for future efforts to raise understanding and acceptance of public health law in Timor- Leste.The review of the health and legal systems, however, highlights that there currently exists an incomplete set of laws that lacks cohesion and accessibility in Timor-Leste: an analysis of applicable law requires a detailed investigation of Timorese and Indonesian law, and United Nations regulations. There appears also to be little systemic capacity to enforce existing, or develop additional, law and regulation. Public health law reform, furthermore, does not appear to be among the Timor-Leste government’s strategic directions.This study is one of few undertaken globally on public health law in a developing, post-conflict transitional society. The observation of widespread support for the legal approach to health provides impetus and direction to the proposition of a coordinated and resourced public health law strategy in Timor-Leste. Recommendations have been provided to address some of the current barriers to such a strategy, including capacity constraints, low awareness and low political and public service profile. Finally a theoretical framework is provided to specifically guide further research and implementation of public health law in Timor-Leste and similar settings.

Abstract:
In this series of studies, three issues were addressed. First, the prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes (high fasting blood glucose with no prior diagnosis of diabetes) and how different they are from the diagnosed diabetes in risk factors. Second, the prevalence and risk factors of overweight and obesity were described in the general population. Finally, an evaluation of the relationship between obesity and type 2 diabetes were made in Saudi adult men and women. Our study population came from a national cross sectional survey which included 3271 males and females, age 30-70 years old. All participants completed a specifically designed questionnaire, and a comprehensive physical examination which included blood pressure and anthropometric measurements. Fasting serum samples were analyzed for glucose and blood lipids. A number of compelling findings have resulted from this research. First, the prevalence of diabetes is high with 30% of men and 25% of women diabetics. Undiagnosed diabetes presents a substantial problem; they constitute 41% of the total diabetic population and 11% of the total population. Undiagnosed diabetics are however, similar to diagnosed diabetes with uncontrolled fasting blood glucose level and many of the associated risk factors. Second, the prevalence of obesity is also high with 49.15% in women and 29.94% in men identified as obese and an additional 31.55% of females and 41.91% of males identified as overweight. Third, in this study population, 12% are obese diabetics and in the diabetic population 43% are obese diabetics. Diabetes appears to have a harmful effect on blood lipids, which seem to worsen when diabetes is combined with obesity. Based on these findings, obesity and diabetes appear to have created very serious complications and prevalent health problems in adult Saudi population between the age of 30-70 years old. Because about half of the population are under 18 years old, there is a very good chance for the government to successfully implement education and health programs to prevent and control these two conditions from becoming an epidemic in future generations.

Abstract:
Healthcare priority setting is a major concern in most countries because healthcare represents a large and increasing public expenditure. Yet, there is not well established procedure that is consistently used to support those responsible for priority setting decisions. This dissertation consists of a review of the literature and five independent essays on healthcare priority setting, focusing on the value of formal analysis to support local healthcare planners in allocating a fixed budget. This dissertation makes both an intellectual and a practical contribution. The intellectual contribution is a synthesis of both economics and decision analysis insights. The review of the literature shows that tools grounded in health economics currently fail to contribute to local healthcare priority setting decisions because they are not practical. At the same time, tools grounded in (multi-criteria) decision analysis fail to incorporate the methodological advances of health economics and are hence theoretically weak. My thesis contributes to closing this gap. The practical contribution is that I design, and test the value of, a process and of particular value functions that can be used by local healthcare planners within their limited resources.

Full text
Abstract:
Background. A 2012 IOM report is just one of an increasing number of recommendations to incorporate a population health approach into training of all health professionals. In light of the emphasis on and necessity for all future health professionals to possess core public health competences, a medium sized public University incorporated Introduction to Public Health as a required course in their undergraduate, interprofessional Health Sciences curriculum. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to assess the change in core public health competencies of undergraduate Health Sciences students who completed an Introduction to Public Health course. Methods. The Tier 1 Public Health Professionals Competency Assessment was administered in the online Introduction to Public Health courses for undergraduate Health Sciences students; the pretest was administered during the first week and the posttest during the final week of the 15 week course. Purposive sampling was used to assess how the course increased the student’s acquisition of core public health competencies within the designated eight domains. Results. Results of this study showed an increase in the competency scores of the participants from pre to posttest across all of the eight domains. Conclusions. This study demonstrates that an Introduction to Public Health course can increase the core public health competencies of undergraduate Health Sciences students, and the Public Health Professionals Competency Assessment can be used to assess the acquisition of these competencies with and guide curriculum for future health care providers.

Abstract:
Aim. The aim of this paper is to present public health importance of hypertension in population as one of the major CVD risk factor as well as a model of integrated approach to hypertension control at community level. Background. In spite of wide knowledge of pathophysiology and epidemiology in development of hypertension, ability to easily diagnose it, availability of efficient medications, hypertension continues to have high prevalence and setting up hypertension controls poses significant public health challenge. High prevalence of hypertension exists in all countries of the world, regardless of socioeconomic status of the country. It is estimated that the number of people with hypertension by 2025 will rise by 15-20%, and the number of sick people will increase up to 1.5 billion people worldwide. Methods. A review of the relevant literature which discusses the importance of defining clear strategies and interventions in the control of hypertension in countries, with particular emphasis on integrated hypertension management that has the greatest impact. Discussion. Effective and efficient hypertension control requires two approaches: population approach and individual approach to high-risk individuals. The balanced combination of population approach and an approach to access high-risk individuals is vital for the effective control of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. Conclusions. Health systems in every country must be flexible and ready to provide adequate model of integrated approach to hypertension control at community level understanding their own local needs.

Abstract:
Background: COVID-19 vaccines have been offered in Jordan since early march 2021, to all governates around Jordan, in three types: (Pfizer, Sinopharm, and Astrazeneca). However, some populations weren’t vaccinated yet. Several factors maybe related to not practicing the vaccine by the population such as: knowledge, attitude, practice and accessibility of health care, particularly in areas with low socio-economic status. Therefore, studying factors affecting the approach towards vaccination is crucial to improve vaccination rates. Objective: To evaluate and assess the knowledge, attitude, and practices toward the COVID-19 vaccines in the Ghawr Al-safi population. Method: A cross sectional, population based study was conducted at Ghawr Al-safi. A random sample of 301 individuals was collected. A face to face interview of each participant was carried out by the reaseachers, using a well constructed, validated,and reliable questionnaire. The minimum(5,4, and4) and maximum(15,15,and 20) scores for the knowledge, attitude, and practice respectively. Results: Median age for the whole participants was 30, IQR=22.5-43.5 years. Females constitute 52.7%. of the participants .The most common sources of information about COVID-19 vaccines were television (68.7%) and social media (52.4%). Almost three quarters (74%) of the population were vaccinated with two doses, 61% were vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine. The mean score for; Knowledge 7.75/15, attitude ,7.02/20. While for vaccine practice was relatively high with a mean of 14.62/20. The mean score on the satisfaction towards the healthcare services was 3.76/9. The practice scale was significantly correlated with the satisfaction (r= -0.299, p< 0.001),attitude (r= -0.387, p < 0.001), but not with knowledge (p = 0.448). The most prevalent reason (41%) for vaccination was to protect themselves and their families from COVID-19. What factors are related to practicing COVID-19 vaccine by population at Ghawr Al-Safi, Jordan Conclusion: Level of practice was significantly conversely correlated with attitude and not with knowledge. This indicates that people were vaccinated despite their doubts and apprehension toward the vaccines. Therefore, additional knowledge and awareness are required of Covid -19 and its consequences in that population. Keywords: covid-19, kap study , cross sectional

Abstract:
This paper presents an overview of how health outcomes vary across cities in Latin America and discusses some of the known drivers of this variation. There are large disparities in outcomes across cities and across neighborhoods of the same city. Because health is closely related to the socioeconomic conditions of individuals, part of the spatial variation reflects residential segregation by income. Local characteristics also have a direct effect on health outcomes, shaping individuals' access to health services and the prevalence of unhealthy lifestyles. In addition, urban environments affect health through natural atmospheric conditions, through local infrastructure in particular water, sanitation, and urban transit and through the presence of urban externalities such as traffic congestion, pollution, crime, and the spread of transmissible diseases. The COVID-19 pandemic illustrates many of these patterns, since the impact of the disease has differed sharply across cities, and much of this variation can be explained by observable local characteristics particularly population, connectivity with other cities and countries, income levels, and residential overcrowding.

Full text
Abstract:
Rapid population growth, poor and uneven economic performance, and slow progress in health and education are interrelated phenomena. However, while there is strong support for public policies aimed at economic recovery and human resource development in the Philippines, there is still a lack of consensus on the need for public policy to moderate population growth and on the role of a government-sponsored family planning program in overall population and development activities. This paper examines alternative population projections and analyzes the contribution to future population growth of unwanted fertility, high desired family size, and population momentum. The aims are to highlight the multiple policy responses that are needed to moderate rapid population growth and to clarify a number of factors that have prevented the development of a consensus on Philippine population policy.

Full text
Abstract:
Health workers move between public and private organizations in both urban and rural areas during the course of their career. This can result in imbalances in the number of healthcare providers available relative to the population receiving care from that sector. Different financial incentives and movement restriction interventions may manage this issue in low income countries.

van Walbeek, Corné, and Senzo Mthembu. The Likely Fiscal and Public Health Effects of an Excise Tax on Sugar sweetened Beverages in Kenya. Institute of Development Studies, May 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ictd.2022.007.

Full text
Abstract:
Historically, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have typically been associated with tobacco and alcohol use. However, in recent decades increased levels of overweightness and obesity, mostly caused by poor eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle, have increased diabetes, cancers, and cardiovascular diseases. There is a general agreement that sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) are bad for one’s health. As such, measures to reduce their consumption would be expected to positively impact population health. In this working paper, we develop and report on an Excel-based model, in which we simulate the impact of an SSB tax on the prevalence of overweightness and obesity. The model starts with a baseline scenario, which takes cognisance that a 10 KES specific tax already exists on all soft drinks. A sugar-based SSB tax is then introduced. The tax is levied as an amount per gram of sugar, with or without a tax-free threshold. Other than reducing the demand for SSBs, a sugar-based SSB also creates strong incentives for manufacturers to reformulate their products to reduce the sugar content. The model predicts that the average BMI would decrease across all age groups decreasing the prevalence of overweightness and obesity. The magnitude of the decrease in the prevalence of overweightness and obesity depends on the size of the SSB tax. For realistic and politically feasible values of the SSB tax, the prevalence of overweightness and obesity is expected to decrease by between 5 per cent and 10 per cent. Should Kenya implement a sugar-based tax on SSBs, over and above the current excise tax on soft drinks, the government should clarify that such a tax aims to enhance public health; raising additional revenue should be a secondary consideration. Also, implementing a sugar based SSB tax should be part of a more comprehensive strategy to reduce overweightness and obesity, because by itself the impact of the tax is modest.

Abstract:
Nordic welfare states are world renowned for providing high quality public services. Nordic municipal and regional authorities, in particular, play a central role in the delivery of key public services in areas, such as, health, education, and social care. However, in recent years, public authorities have faced several challenges which have reduced capacity and resources, including long periods of austerity following the 2008 financial crash, rapid demographic changes caused by an ageing population, and the COVID-19 health crisis. In response to these challenges many public authorities have looked to inter-regional, inter-municipal and cross-border collaborations to improve the quality and effectiveness of public service delivery (OECD 2017; ESPON 2019). Indeed, collaborative public service delivery is becoming increasingly prominent in the Nordic Region due to a highly decentralized systems of governance (Nordregio 20015; Eythorsson 2018).

Assessing Public Health Benefits of Replacing Freight Trucks with Cargo Cycles in Last Leg Delivery Trips in Urban Centers. Mineta Transportation Institute, June 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.31979/mti.2022.1952.

Abstract:
Increased urbanization, population growth, and demand for time-sensitive deliveries means increased freight movement in cities, which contributes to emissions, noise, and safety concerns. One innovative mode gaining widespread attention for urban deliveries is cargo cycles—bicycles adapted for freight delivery. Despite the recognized potential and possible success of transporting at least 25% of freight via cycle, research remains limited. This research investigates the potential of cargo cycle delivery for last mile freight in Oakland, California, with a focus on the West Oakland neighborhood. The data collection included interviews, focus groups, vehicle field observation and counts, and traffic simulation modeling. The traffic simulation examined scenarios where businesses converted different percentages of current deliveries to cargo cycles using a transfer hub as the starting point for their cargo cycle delivery. The best-case scenario—where the maximum percentage of deliveries were made with cargo cycle instead of motorized vehicles—resulted in reductions of 2600 vehicle miles traveled (VMT) per day. In that case scenario, the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) reduction is equivalent to a reduction in emissions of PM2.5, PM10, NOx, and reactive organic gas (ROG) of taking about 1000 Class 4 box trucks off the roads of West Oakland per day. In the worst-case scenario, with a significantly smaller percentage of motorized package deliveries converted to cargo cycles, there is a reduction of 160 VMT, equivalent to the removal of approximately 80 Class 4 box trucks off the roads of West Oakland per day. This potential reduction in air pollution and traffic congestion, as well as job creation, would benefit West Oakland residents.
