Abstract:
Abstract A food desert is defined as a census tract with limited access to affordable and nutritious foods. Inequitable access to healthy food may contribute to disparities in cognitive health, but little is known about the role of food deserts in cognitive health. We examined association between living in food deserts and cognitive function in older adults 65 years and older. These analyses employed cohort design by linking the US Department of Agriculture 2010 Food Access Research Atlas data to 2011-2021 National Health and Aging Trends Study.

Abstract:
While there is substantial public health literature that documents the negative impacts of living in “food deserts” (e.g., obesity and diabetes), little is known regarding whether living in a food desert is associated with increased criminal victimization. With the block group as the unit of analysis, the present study examines whether there is a relationship between food deserts and elevated crime counts, and whether this relationship varies by racial composition.

Abstract:
Providing access to a variety of healthy and affordable foods has been the goal of several federal and state policy initiatives in the USA. The first step towards the successful implementation of these initiatives is to identify food deserts and to understand the mechanism by which food deserts arise. This national-level study investigates the association between urban sprawl and the emergence of food deserts at both regional and neighbourhood levels. Multilevel analysis is used to model the likelihood of a census tract being a food desert, controlling for sociodemographic and built environmen

Introduction “Food deserts” have emerged over the past 20 years as spaces of concern for communities, public health authorities and researchers because of their potential negative impact on dietary quality and subsequent health outcomes. Food deserts are residential geographic spaces, typically in urban settings, where low-income residents have limited or no access to retail food establishments with sufficient variety at affordable cost.

Abstract Introduction Poverty is a known risk factor for burn injury and is associated with residency in food deserts and food swamps. Food deserts are areas with low or no access to nutritious, healthy foods while food swamps are areas with much higher access to high-calorie, unhealthy foods than to foods with good nutritious value. The purpose of our investigation was to determine the prevalence of residency in food deserts and food swamps in burn patients evaluated at an urban academic center and to determine the relationship between residency in these areas and the presence of patient como

Abstract:
Food deserts are associated with lower quality diets and higher obesity rates. One hypothesis for their emergence is that retailers avoid food deserts because demand side factors such as low income limit demand for healthy foods. A competing hypothesis is that supply side factors cause prohibitively high costs of operation for grocers – leading to limited access to healthy foods and thus low expressed demand. The direction of causality has important implications for improving diets and health of food desert residents. This paper analyses Detroit food desert residents’ fresh vegetable purchasin

During the second half of the twentieth century there has been a transformation in the way groceries are bought in Britain. Global economic, social, and demographic trends have helped the supermarket, a shopping institution unknown in 1950s Britain, to gain over three quarters of the share of groceries bought in the UK in 2003. Accompanying this has been a major decline in the number of small neighbourhood shops selling groceries, and especially in those selling fresh fruit and vegetables.

Abstract:
Wildrice (Zizania palustris L.) is an annual aquatic emergent plant primarily distributed across portions of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Canada. Wildrice requires narrow environmental conditions that vary throughout its life cycle. Environmental conditions required include water levels between 15 and 90 cm, slow flowing water, anaerobic soil, and circum-neutral pH. Wildrice production and abundance is most often limited by nitrogen availability. Both short- and long-term changes in local conditions impact distribution and abundance of wildrice at local and regional scales. Reported dec
