Evolution of Multidimensional Poverty in Crisis-Ridden Mozambique
AbstractMozambique experienced important reductions in the poverty rate until recently, before two major natural disasters hit, an armed insurgency stroke in the northern province of Cabo Delgado, and the country started suffering from a hidden debt crisis with associated economic slowdown. As the last available national household expenditure survey is from 2014/15, just before these crises started unfolding, there is need for a poverty assessment based on alternative data sources. We study the evolution of multidimensional poverty in Mozambique using survey data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS). Using both th...

Improved air quality from China's clean air actions alleviates health expenditure inequality
Environ Int. 2023 Feb 15;173:107831. doi: 10.1016/j.envint.2023.107831. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTClean air actions aimed at improving air quality in China have brought about significant health benefits, thereby generating substantial savings in air-pollution-related healthcare spending. Yet, uneven regional air quality improvements and economic developments may alter existing inequality in health expenditures in the context of scarce healthcare resources. Here, we developed an econometric model that resolves individual characteristics at the city level to examine the disparity of public health expenditures in air qual...

Compensatory relationship of mechanical energy in paretic limb during sit-to-stand motion of stroke survivors
Hum Mov Sci. 2023 Jan 11;88:103052. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2022.103052. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTo enable patients with stroke to live comfortable and efficient daily lives, it is crucial to understand the energetic characteristics of their sit-to-stand motion. Although the patients have reduced muscle strength in their paretic limbs, their entire body mechanical energy expenditure during the sit-to-stand motion is not different from that of healthy adults. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether this mismatch in energy expenditure is due to co-contraction of the paretic limb or compensation by the sound limb. Thus, this s...

Changes in coverage among non-elderly adults with chronic diseases following Affordable Care Act implementation
by John D. Goodson, Sara Shahbazi, Zirui Song
ImportanceChanges in insurance coverage after the Affordable Care Act (ACA) among non-elderly adults with self-reported chronic conditions across income categories have not been described. ObjectiveTo examine changes in insurance coverage after the ACA among non-elderly adults with chronic conditions across income categories, by geographic region. DesignWe compared self-reported access to health insurance pre-ACA (2010-2013) and post-ACA (2014-2017) for individuals 18-64 years of age with ≥ 2 chronic conditions, including hypertension, heart disease/stroke, emphysema, diabete...

Metabolomic analysis and pharmacological validation of the cerebral protective effect of 3,4 ‑dihydroxybenzaldehyde on cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury
Mol Med Rep. 2023 Jan;27(1):9. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2022.12896. Epub 2022 Nov 11.ABSTRACT3,4‑Dihydroxybenzaldehyde (DBD), one of the active components of Gastrodia elata, has a cerebral protective effect and can effectively combat cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. However, the metabolite profiles and underlying mechanisms associated with DBD remain unclear. To explore the level of energy metabolism and pharmacological targets in brain tissue following DBD treatment of stroke. The right middle cerebral artery of the rats was occluded for 2 h and reperfused for 24 h to simulate brain I/R injury. Pharmacologic...
