Background: Despite the important, and well-established, link between poverty and poor health, previous research has shown that there is an ‘excess’ level of mortality in Scotland compared to England and Wales: that is, higher mortality seemingly not explained by differences in levels of socio-economic deprivation. This excess has been shown to be ubiquitous in Scotland, but greatest in and around Glasgow and the West Central Scotland conurbation. To investigate this further, the aims of this research were: first, to compare levels of mortality and deprivation – and, specifically, the extent t

Scotland has continued to have worse mortality at all ages because Scottish infant mortality, along with death rates at most other ages, failed to decline at the same rate as these other countries in Europe.

Abstract:
Background: Dementia syndromes have a progressive and varied nature, causing cognitive and functional decay. Therefore, understanding the epidemiology of this disease is important for its screening. Objectives: To present the patients hospitalized in the state of São Paulo clinical-epidemiological profile, between March 2011 and February 2021. Design and settings: Descriptive, retrospective, and quantitative epidemiological study. Methodology: The data were collected in Sistema de Informação Hospitalares do Sistema Único de Saúde. The number of hospitalizations and mortality rate were analyzed

Abstract:
For scholars and policymakers alike, understanding the burden of cancer on society is a critical topic for investigation. Cancer consistently ranks as the second leading cause of death in the U.S., and cancers of the prostate, breast, lung, and colorectal areas are particularly problematic. This policy brief works to understand the scope of cancer mortality in urban and rural areas of the U.S. and across census regions. It finds that age-adjusted mortality rates are higher for lung, prostate, and colon cancer in rural areas than in urban areas but also that mortality rates are lower for breast

Abstract:
One of the most important tasks for rural scholars and policymakers is to better understand the causes and consequences of diabetes, as diabetes prevalence is generally higher in rural areas than urban areas. This study explores diabetes-related mortality, comparing urban-versus-rural mortality over a sixteen-year period, and investigating the influence of race and rurality. The study uses data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wonder Database. Results demonstrated that as rurality increases in America, so too does diabetes-related mortality.

Abstract:
It has been reported that diabetes prevalence is higher in rural areas than in urban areas. Other studies have shown that rural persons with diabetes have higher morbidity from diabetes-related complications than urban persons with diabetes. This study used data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project Nationwide Inpatient Sample (2009-2014) to examine hospital-based diabetes-related mortality and whether there were urban-rural differences across census regions. On average 2.63% of all diabetes-related urban hospital admissions resulted in death, while 2.73% of all diabetes-related rur

Abstract:
The 2019 age-adjusted natural-cause mortality (NCM) rate for the prime working-age population (aged 25-54) was 43 percent higher in rural (nonmetropolitan) areas than in urban (metropolitan) areas. This is a shift from 25 years ago when NCM rates in urban and rural areas were similar for this age group. As a first step to understanding the increasing gap between rural and urban NCM rates, this report examines natural (disease-related) deaths for prime working-age adults in rural and urban areas between 1999 and 2019 using data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for

Across the U.S., major health inequities persist across several social and structural determinants of health. In this brief, we explored the intersection of these social and structural determinants across major diseases and disease-related mortality. The likelihood of stroke, angina or coronary heart disease, and heart attack (myocardial infarction) was significantly higher in the South and for American Indian or Alaska Native individuals as compared to White individuals. Rural areas of the South experienced high rates of mortality for multiple years related to congestive heart failure, ischem

Background: Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is a prevalent form of vascular calcification associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. While previous studies on AAC and cardiovascular risk exist, many have limitations such as small sample sizes and limited clinical significance outcomes. This study aims to prospectively investigate the association between AAC and all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD)-specific mortality rates in a nationally representative sample of adults in the United States, using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
