Characterizing physical activity and food urban environments: a GIS-based multicomponent proposal
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 - Trang 1-13 - 2016
Alba Cebrecos, Julia Díez, Pedro Gullón, Usama Bilal, Manuel Franco, Francisco Escobar
Healthier urban environments influence the distribution of cardiovascular risk factors. Our aim was to design and implement a multicomponent method based on Geographic Information Systems to characterize and evaluate environmental correlates of obesity: the food and the physical activity urban environments. Study location comprised a socio-demographically average urban area of 12 contiguous census...... hiện toàn bộ
Open source GIS for HIV/AIDS management
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 7 - Trang 1-16 - 2008
Bas Vanmeulebrouk, Ulrike Rivett, Adam Ricketts, Melissa Loudon
Reliable access to basic services can improve a community's resilience to HIV/AIDS. Accordingly, work is being done to upgrade the physical infrastructure in affected areas, often employing a strategy of decentralised service provision. Spatial characteristics are one of the major determinants in implementing services, even in the smaller municipal areas, and good quality spatial information is ne...... hiện toàn bộ
Regional variation in lifestyle patterns and BMI in young children: the GECKO Drenthe cohort
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 21 - Trang 1-14 - 2022
Rikstje Wiersma, Richard H. Rijnks, Gianni Bocca, H. Marike Boezen, Esther Hartman, Eva Corpeleijn
A better understanding of lifestyle behaviours of children < 7 years and the relation with childhood overweight is needed. The aim of our prospective study was to examine how lifestyle patterns in young children are associated with the development of childhood overweight. As ecological models suggest focusing on not only the child as an individual, but also their environment, we also considered th...... hiện toàn bộ

Cycling in one of the most polluted cities in the world: Exposure to noise and air pollution and potential adverse health impacts in Delhi
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 - Trang 1-16 - 2021
Philippe Apparicio, Jérémy Gelb, Vincent Jarry, Élaine Lesage-Mann
In India, many cities struggle with extreme levels of air pollution and noise. Delhi, in particular, has the notorious reputation of being one of the most polluted cities in the world. Cyclists constitute a particularly exposed population, since they cycle among motor vehicles without any protection. This paper modeled the cyclists’ exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and noise in Delhi, India. Usi...... hiện toàn bộ
‘Social, innovative and smart cities are happy and resilient’: insights from the WHO EURO 2014 International Healthy Cities Conference
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 14 - Trang 1-9 - 2015
Maged N Kamel Boulos, Agis D Tsouros, Arto Holopainen
This paper provides a brief overview of, and elaborates on, some of the presentations, discussions and conclusions from Day 4 of the ‘WHO EURO 2014 International Healthy Cities Conference: Health and the City - Urban Living in the 21st Century’, held in Athens, Greece on 25 October 2014. The Internet of Things (IoT) is made of sensors and other components that connect our version of the world made...... hiện toàn bộ
Exploring the role of GIS during community health assessment problem solving: experiences of public health professionals
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 1-10 - 2006
Matthew Scotch, Bambang Parmanto, Cynthia S Gadd, Ravi K Sharma
A Community health assessment (CHA) involves the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in conjunction with other software to analyze health and population data and perform numerical-spatial problem solving. There has been little research on identifying how public health professionals integrate this software during typical problem solving scenarios. A better understanding of this is needed to...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling larval malaria vector habitat locations using landscape features and cumulative precipitation measures
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 1-12 - 2014
Robert S McCann, Joseph P Messina, David W MacFarlane, M Nabie Bayoh, John M Vulule, John E Gimnig, Edward D Walker
Predictive models of malaria vector larval habitat locations may provide a basis for understanding the spatial determinants of malaria transmission. We used four landscape variables (topographic wetness index [TWI], soil type, land use-land cover, and distance to stream) and accumulated precipitation to model larval habitat locations in a region of western Kenya through two methods: logistic regre...... hiện toàn bộ
Ecology and geography of avian influenza (HPAI H5N1) transmission in the Middle East and northeastern Africa
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2009
Richard Williams, A. Townsend Peterson
Dynamic assessment of exposure to air pollution using mobile phone data
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 - Trang 1-14 - 2016
Bart Dewulf, Tijs Neutens, Wouter Lefebvre, Gerdy Seynaeve, Charlotte Vanpoucke, Carolien Beckx, Nico Van de Weghe
Exposure to air pollution can have major health impacts, such as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Traditionally, only the air pollution concentration at the home location is taken into account in health impact assessments and epidemiological studies. Neglecting individual travel patterns can lead to a bias in air pollution exposure assessments. In this work, we present a novel approach to ...... hiện toàn bộ
