Are Spanish adolescents who actively commute to and from school more active in other domains? A spatiotemporal investigation
We examined the association between mode of commuting to/from school (i.e., walking, multimodal, and motorized-vehicle) and movement behaviours in several space-time domains (i.e., total day, home, school, transport, and other locations). Walking to and/or from school was associated with higher MVPA in all space-time domains except home, where no associations were found. After subtracting commuting time to/from school from total day domain, the associations in favour of walking to/from school were maintained compared to those using other commuting modes, and in transport domain these associations dissipated. The study sugg...

A tale of many neighborhoods: Latent profile analysis to derive a national neighborhood typology for the US
CONCLUSION: LPA can be used to derive meaningful and standardized profiles of tracts sensitive to the spatial patterning of social and built conditions, with observed differences in mental and physical health by neighborhood type in the US.PMID:38408408 | DOI:10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103209 (Source: Health and Place)

The progressive place paradox: Status-based health inequalities are magnified in more economically progressive Swiss localities
Health Place. 2024 Feb 24;86:103215. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103215. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLow socioeconomic status (measured both objectively and subjectively) is systematically associated with worse health. Amid renewed interest in contextual influences on health inequalities, we ask whether variation in the prevailing ideological climate moderates the size of the health gap between low and high status individuals. Based on the minority stress hypothesis, we expect that living in an economically progressive place within Switzerland - places where more residents endorse the need for change to the economic ...

Neighborhood built and food environment in relation to glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes in the moving to health study
CONCLUSIONS: Lower residential density and better proximity to supermarkets may benefit HbA1c control in people with people with type 2 diabetes. However, effects were small and indicate limited clinical significance.PMID:38401397 | DOI:10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103216 (Source: Health and Place)

The built environment and cancer survivorship: A scoping review
CONCLUSION: Our scoping review demonstrated a breadth of current cancer survivorship research in the field of neighborhood walkability and greenness, but fewer studies detailing other aspects of the built environment as defined by this review, such as light pollution, noise pollution, and blue space. We identified future research directions for those interested in this interdisciplinary field, which can provide insights for urban planners and policy makers on how to best leverage the built environment to promote the health and wellbeing of cancer survivors.PMID:38387361 | DOI:10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103206 (Source: Health and Place)

Higher air pollution exposure in early life is associated with worse health among older adults: A 72-year follow-up study from Scotland
This study explored the relationship between fine particle (PM2.5) exposure at age 3 and limiting long-term illness (LLTI) at ages 55, 65 and 75 using data from the Scottish Longitudinal Study Birth Cohort 1936, a representative administrative cohort study. We found that early life PM2.5 exposure was associated with higher odds of LLTI in mid-to-late adulthood (OR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.06, 1.14 per 10 μg m-3 increment) among the 2085 participants, with stronger associations among those growing up in disadvantaged families. Path analyses suggested that 15-21% of the association between early life PM2.5 concentrations and LLTI ...

Drinking alcohol at home feels different from drinking in public places: a qualitative study of midlife Australians
Health Place. 2024 Feb 16;86:103179. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103179. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper shows how drinking in one's own home affords different affective experiences to drinking in public settings such as bars, pubs and restaurants. A thematic analysis of interviews with 40 Australians aged 30-65 identified three main variations in alcohol-associated feelings, sensations and urges. Alcohol was used at home to decelerate, but in contrast, people were enlivened when drinking in public venues. Drinking in public generated a sense of vigilance and greater requirement to self-monitor than usually fe...
