IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 12235: Population Health Status of the Republic of Kazakhstan: Trends and Implications for Public Health Policy
Allegrante The Republic of Kazakhstan began undergoing a political, economic, and social transition after 1991. Population health was declared an important element and was backed with a substantial commitment by the central government to health policy. We examine key trends in the population health status of the Republic of Kazakhstan and seek to understand them in relation to the ongoing political, economic, and social changes in society and its aspirations in health policy. We used the Global Burden of Disease database and toolkit to extract and analyze country-specific descriptive data for the Republic of Kazakhsta...

Hearing loss is associated with increased risk of incident stroke but not coronary heart disease among middle-aged and older Chinese adults: the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort study
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2021 Nov 9. doi: 10.1007/s11356-021-17324-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHearing loss has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevalence in cross-sectional studies. However, little is known about the prospective association between hearing loss and CVD incidence. We aimed to examine the associations of hearing loss with risk of incident CVD, coronary heart disease (CHD), and stroke in a Chinese population. We included 13,880 individuals aged 63.3 years from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort study (2013-2018). Hearing loss was categorized into normal, mild, moderate, se...

Health impact assessment of transportation noise in two Estonian cities
Environ Res. 2021 Nov 2:112319. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2021.112319. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTransportation noise is a growing public health concern worldwide, especially in urban areas, causing annoyance, sleep disturbance, cardiovascular diseases and other health effects. Recently, European Commission (EC) has developed a mutual methodology for assessing health impacts of transportation noise in European Union using strategic noise mapping. Applying this methodology, our aim was to quantify the health effects of road, rail and aircraft noise in two Estonian cities, Tallinn and Tartu. We also aimed to assess sensitivi...

IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 10301: Prevalence of Mental Health Disorders among Elderly Diabetics and Associated Risk Factors in Indonesia
d Aljunid This cross-sectional study aimed to explore mental health disorders (MHD) prevalence among elderly diabetics in Indonesia. Data were extracted from the 2018 national basic health survey in Indonesia (abbreviated as RISKESDAS). The survey involved households randomly selected from 34 provinces, 416 districts, and 98 cities in Indonesia, with 1,017,290 respondents. The number of subjects selected in this study was 2818 elderly diabetic subjects. MHD was determined by self-reporting assessment. Secondary data acquired from RISKESDAS 2018 data involved age, sex, urban–rural residence status, marital status, edu...

Association of heating fuel types with mortality and cardiovascular events among non-smokers in China
This study aimed to investigate the effect of solid fuel heating on the risk of CVD events and all-cause mortality among non-smokers. Data of this sub-study were obtained from the China Hypertension Survey (CHS), and 13,528 non-smoking participants aged 35 or above without self-reported medical history of CVD were enrolled between October 2012 and December 2015. CVD events and all-cause mortality were followed up in 2018 and 2019. The type of primary heating fuel was categorized as clean fuel (natural gas and electricity) and solid fuel (coal, wood, and straw). Cox regression was applied to evaluate the relationship betwee...
