Abstract:
There has been a resurgence of interest in how the social, built and cultural environments contribute to shaping health outcomes. The pathways relating place to health behaviour have received less attention. We develop a nuanced understanding of the pathways linking individuals, places and smoking. Two key pathways operate: place-based ‘practices’ and place-based ‘regulation’. Future geographical research should pay attention to the different scale effects, encompass a wider set of influences which affect the liveability and social composition of neighbourhoods, and specify group differences in the impact of the local economic and social environment upon smoking.

Abstract:
Urban development has historically been seen as both a cause and solution for social inequalities in health. However, environmental and individual gradients within urban areas occur everywhere, and are resistant to change. Environments are infl uenced by the degree and type of industrialization, quality of housing, accessibility to green space and - of increasing concern - transport. Individual behaviour, however, also contributes to social differences, both through migration and by the effects on individuals of cultural experiences through the life-course. Reduction on inequalities may be possible through larger social action, for example urban regeneration. There remains an important role for public health in addressing determinants of health at the population level.

Abstract:
This paper reviews the shortcomings of present approaches to reduce oral diseases and inequalities, details the importance of social determinants, and links that to research needs and policies on implementation of strategies to reduce oral health inequalities. Inequalities in health are not narrowing. Attention is therefore being directed at determinants of major health conditions and the extent to which those common determinants vary within, between, and among groups, because if inequalities in health vary across groups, then so must underlying causes. Tackling inequalities in health requires strategies tailored to determinants and needs of each group along the social gradient. Approaches focusing mainly on downstream lifestyle and behavioral factors have limited success in reducing health inequalities. They fail to address social determinants, for changing people’s behaviors requires changing their environment. There is a dearth of oral health research on social determinants that cause health-compromising behaviors and on risk factors common to some chronic diseases. The gap between what is known and implemented by other health disciplines and the dental fraternity needs addressing. To re-orient oral health research, practice, and policy toward a ‘social determinants’ model, a closer collaboration between and integration of dental and general health research is needed. Here, we suggest a research agenda that should lead to reductions in global inequalities in oral health.

Abstract:
This study evaluates social inequalities in health according to level of schooling in the male population. This was a cross-sectional, population-based study with a sample of 449 men ranging from 20 to 59 years of age and living in Campinas, São Paulo State, Brazil. The chi-square test was used to verify associations, and a Poisson regression model was used to estimate crude and adjusted prevalence ratios. Men with less schooling showed higher rates of alcohol consumption and dependence, smoking, sedentary lifestyle during leisure time, and less healthy eating habits, in addition to higher prevalence of bad or very bad self-rated health, at least one chronic disease, hypertension, and other health problems. No differences were detected between the two schooling strata in terms of use of health services, except for dental services. The findings point to social inequality in health-related behaviors and in some health status indicators. However, possible equity was observed in the use of nearly all types of health services.

Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to assess social inequalities in health status, health behavior and the use of health services based on education level. A population-based cross-sectional study was carried out involving 1,518 elderly residents of Campinas, São Paulo State, Brazil. Significant demographic and social differences were found between schooling strata. Elderly individuals with a higher degree of schooling are in greater proportion alcohol drinkers, physically active, have healthier diets and a lower prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, dizziness, headaches, back pain, visual impairment and denture use, and better self-rated health. But, there were no differences in the use of health services in the previous two weeks, in hospitalizations or surgeries in the previous year, nor in medicine intake over the previous three days. Among elderly people with hypertension and diabetes, there were no differences in the regular use of health services and medication. The results demonstrate social inequalities in different health indicators, along with equity in access to some health service components.

Abstract:
Health and health behaviour varies both socially and geographically and individuals may experience different degrees of health according to their socioeconomic position and where they live. The fact that health varies geographically is usually given two interpretations. It may arise as a consequence of the composition of individuals according to sociodemographic markers. Alternatively, there may be features associated with the context in which they live that explains geographical health variation. Consequently, individuals’ health may be influenced by both individual factors and contextual factors. The overall aim of this thesis is to analyse whether geographical health variation is due to composition or features associated with context. Data from the Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT) in the county of Nord-Trøndelag, Norway, and the statistical technique of multilevel modelling were utilised to analyse these relationships at multiple geographical scales and also across non-geographical contexts. The overall finding is that geographical health variation in Nord-Trøndelag is rather small and that place makes little difference to the health of individuals. This applies both to the level of municipalities and wards/neighbourhoods. The importance of the family context was also explored, and it was found that health and health behaviour within families seemed to cluster. There was strong behavioural conformity in terms of smoking habits whereas body mass index was weakly to moderately dependent on the family context. The findings have some clear implications in terms of future disease prevention and health policy. First, targeted area based initiatives towards particular municipalities, or wards, is not warranted in this particular county. It is however difficult to generalise this particular finding across cultures and towards more urban areas, there may be societies where such initiatives may be of importance. Second, there are some clear indications that the family context is important for the health of individuals and this finding should be acknowledged in future research as well as in disease prevention and health policy.

Abstract:
The general objective of this dissertation is to study breast cancer screening and specifically social inequalities by social class and country of origin and its relationship with decreasing mortality. Therefore, four different studies have been done: three with quantitative methodology and one with qualitative. According to the quasi-experimental study, breast cancer mortality decreased in Barcelona before the introduction of the population screening program, but this reduction is more marked after its introduction. According to data from the Spanish National Health Survey in 2006, there are inequalities in the rate of breast cancer screening according to country of origin and social class. According to two studies conducted in Barcelona, immigrant women from low-income countries are less aware, and hence do less, early detection practices, as they have other priorities and perceive more barriers and taboos. Chinese women are the immigrants who present more differences with native women, followed by Maghribian and Philippine women. Place of origin, social class and migration process are key factors in preventive practices. In conclusion, it is necessary to encourage access to preventive screening practices for all women and also to undertake specific actions directed at the most vulnerable groups, taking into account any socio-cultural factors that influence the use of preventive practices.
L’objectiu general d’aquesta tesi és estudiar el cribratge de càncer de mama i en concret les desigualtats socials per classe social i país d’origen, així com la seva relació amb la disminució de la mortalitat. En conseqüència, s’han realitzat quatre estudis diferents: tres de metodologia quantitativa i un de qualitativa. Segons l’estudi quasi-experimental, la mortalitat per càncer de mama a Barcelona disminueix des d’abans de la introducció del programa poblacional de cribatge, però aquesta reducció és més accentuada desprès de la seva introducció. En base a l’Enquesta Nacional de Salut de l’Estat Espanyol de l’any 2006, existeixen desigualtats en la realització de mamografies periòdiques segons país d’origen i classe social. Segons els dos estudis realitzats a Barcelona, les dones immigrades procedents de països de renda baixa coneixen i realitzen menys les pràctiques de detecció precoç, ja que tenen altres prioritats i perceben més barreres i tabús. Les dones xineses són les que presenten més diferències amb les dones autòctones, seguides de les magribines i les filipines. El lloc d’origen, la classe social i el procés migratori són factors claus en les practiques preventives. En conclusió, és necessari afavorir l’accés a les pràctiques preventives a totes les dones i també realitzar accions específiques dirigides als grups més vulnerables sense deixar de tenir en compte els factors socioculturals que influeixen en les pràctiques preventives de les dones.

Abstract:
The general objective of this dissertation was to study the state of sexual and reproductive health of the Spanish population in reproductive age, especially focusing on individual and contextual socioeconomic inequalities. Five different studies were designed to achieve this objective, one especially focused on the state of sexual health, three on the use of contraception and one on the practice of induced abortion, studying in each case the influence of socioeconomic factors. Using sources of information such as the Fecundity Interview of 2006, the first National Sexual Health Survey of 2009 and the annual Register of Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy, we were able to conduct multivariate regression studies, and when possible with a multilevel approach, to study socioeconomic inequalities in the different aspects related to sexual and reproductive health detailed. The studies of this dissertation suggest that the general state of sexual and reproductive health of the Spanish population in reproductive age is quite good; nevertheless, individual and contextual socioeconomic inequalities are detected in almost all the aspects studied.

Para alcanzar este objetivo se diseñaron cinco estudios diferentes, uno dedicado al estado de salud sexual, tres al uso de anticoncepción y el último a la práctica de aborto inducido, estudiando en cada caso la influencia de los factores socioeconómicos. Mediante el uso de fuentes de información como la Encuesta de Fecundidad de 2006, la primera Encuesta Nacional de Salud Sexual de 2009 y el Registro anual de Interrupciones Voluntarias del Embarazo, se realizaron estudios de regresión multivariados, con un enfoque multinivel cuando fue posible, para estudiar las desigualdades socioeconómicas en los diferentes aspectos relacionados con la salud sexual y reproductiva detallados. Los estudios de esta tesis sugieren que el estado general de salud sexual y reproductiva de la población española en edad reproductiva es bastante bueno; sin embargo, se detectan desigualdades socioeconómicas individuales y contextuales en la mayoría de los aspectos estudiados.

Abstract:
Die Ergebnisse des Kinder- und Jugendgesundheitssurveys (KiGGS) enthüllen Unterschiede im Gesundheitsstatus und Gesundheitsverhalten in Deutschland je nach Einkommen, Bildungsstand und Berufswahl der Kinder und Jugendlichen selbst bzw. von deren Eltern. Besonders stark ausgeprägt sind die sozialen Unterschiede im Hinblick auf den allgemeinen Gesundheitszustand, psychische und Verhaltensauffälligkeiten sowie Übergewicht. Auch in allen anderen europäischen Staaten kumulieren Mortalität, Morbidität und verhaltensbedingte Risikofaktoren in den unteren sozioökonomischen Statusgruppen. In Europa differiert die Lebenserwartung bei Männern in höheren und niedrigeren sozialen Positionen durchschnittlich um fünf Jahre. Die Entwicklung von Strategien zur Bekämpfung sozialer Ungleichheiten in der Gesundheit ist eine der größten Herausforderungen unserer heutigen Gesellschaft
The national representative survey on the health of children and adolescents in Germany (KiGGS) revealed social inequalities in health and health behaviour in Germany according to income, education and occupation of both the children and adolescents themselves and their parents. Social inequalities in general health status, psychological or behavioural disorders, and overweight seem to be most alarming. Mortality, morbidity and detrimental health behaviour accumulate in the subpopulation with a low socioeconomic position (SEP) across Europe. The average difference in life expectancy in European men with a high and low SEP is 5 years. The development of policies and strategies to tackle this important public health issue is a major present and future challenge

Abstract:
This PhD research has three main aims: first, to design a conceptual framework for studying health inequalities amongst women who are mothers; secondly, to describe inequalities in health and health behaviours between couple and lone mothers in Spain; and lastly, to explore the relationship between social capital and lone mothers’ health in Europe. These objectives have been met through the publication of three papers, with data for Papers 2 and 3 drawn from the Spanish National Health Survey (waves 2003-2004 and 2011-2012) and the European Social Survey (2010), respectively. Paper 1 shows a conceptual framework that explains the processes and contexts that influence health inequalities amongst women who are mothers. Paper 2 points out that inequalities in health and health behaviours between couple and lone mothers exist in Spain amongst the manual social class, with lone mothers reporting worse health outcomes and health behaviours than couple mothers. However, changes in inequalities were not confirmed between 2003-2004 and 2011-2012. Findings of Paper 3 suggest a relationship between cognitive social capital and lone mothers’ health, although social capital does not seem to explain the cross-country variance observed in lone mother’s health across Europe.
Esta tesis presenta tres objetivos: primero, diseñar un modelo conceptual para el estudio de desigualdades en salud entre mujeres que son madres; segundo, describir las desigualdades en salud y conductas relacionadas con la salud entre madres con y sin pareja en España; y, por último, explorar la relación entre el capital social y la salud de las madres sin pareja en Europa. Estos objetivos se alcanzaron mediante la publicación de tres artículos científicos, con datos para los Artículos 2 y 3 procedentes de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de España (2003-2004 y 2011-2012) y de la Encuesta Social Europea (2010), respectivamente. El Artículo 1 presenta un modelo conceptual que describe los procesos y contextos que influyen en las desigualdades en salud entre mujeres que son madres. El Artículo 2 apunta que, en España, existen desigualdades entre madres con y sin pareja de la clase social manual, presentando las madres sin pareja peores resultados en salud y conductas relacionadas con la salud que las madres con pareja. Sin embargo, no se pudo confirmar la existencia de cambios en las desigualdades entre 2003-2004 y 2011-2012. El Artículo 3 sugiere que existe una relación entre el capital social cognitivo y la salud de las madres sin pareja, aunque no parece que el capital social explique la variabilidad observada en la salud de las madres sin pareja entre los países europeos.

Abstract:
Les différences de morbidité et de mortalité entre les groupes socioéconomiques constituent un des résultatsle plus cohérent de la recherche épidémiologique. Cependant, les mécanismes qui sous-tendent cetteassociation demeurent encore mal compris. Les données de deux grandes cohortes européennes ont étéutilisées pour décrire l'ampleur des différences socioéconomiques de mortalité toutes causes et spécifique, etexaminer le rôle des comportements de santé et du soutien social dans ces inégalités. Les indicateurs de lasituation socioéconomique dans l'enfance se sont révélés liés à la mortalité à l'âge adulte, même si toutefoisles trois mesures examinées - position socioprofessionnelle du père, niveau d'études et taille - étaientdifféremment liées à la mortalité. Les indicateurs de la position socioéconomique à l'âge adulte, catégoriesocioprofessionnelle et revenu, étaient associés à la mortalité toutes causes et cardiovasculaire dans les deuxcohortes. Dans l'étude Whitehall II, les comportements de santé étaient socialement distribués etexpliquaient une grande partie des inégalités sociales de mortalité, en particulier lorsque les changementsdans ces comportements au cours du suivi étaient pris en compte. Les mêmes comportements expliquaienttrès peu les inégalités sociales de mortalité dans l'étude GAZEL, leur répartition sociale étant faible danscette cohorte. Parmi les mesures de soutien social considérées, le statut marital expliquait également unepartie du gradient socioéconomique de mortalité dans l'étude Whitehall II, mais pas dans GAZEL, tandis quele rôle de la participation sociale et du réseau social était négligeable dans les deux cohortes. Différentsmécanismes semblent jouer un rôle dans les inégalités sociales de santé dans ces deux pays européensvoisins. Cela implique que des recherches comparatives visant à comprendre les déterminants communs etspécifiques des différences sociales de santé sont nécessaires. D'autres recherches visant davantage lescauses fondamentales des inégalités sociales de santé sont également souhaitables.

Abstract:
This thesis works towards a social psychology of health inequalities in order to further understanding of the relations between structure and agency (re )producing these inequities. It does so by exploring the ideological construction of health and identities associated with the axes of inequality. Employing a material-discursive methodological standpoint to link work on inequality with that of 'lay health beliefs', it is argued that discourse is the semiotic moment of practices (re )producing health inequalities. Critical discourse analysis thereby provides a means to examine the ideological construction of health and identities associated with health inequalities. The interview and focus group methods used to generate text in interaction with a small, diverse sample of participants living in Bristol are described, paying particular attention to the reflexive issues embedded within the research process. F our competing ideologies within which health and illness were constructed as discursive objects are described: minimalism, associated with health as the absence of illness and medical ideology; psychological constructions of health as wellness or happiness relating to psychological ideology; lifestyle constructions of life ethics pertaining to health promotional ideology; and holism, the interdependency of mind, body and spirit, tied to alternative health ideology. The four interwoven health identities arising from these ideologies of health and respecting the key axes of inequalities in health, namely social class, gender, ethnicity and place, are considered. Resistance to class as prejudice is explored, alongside an examination the politics of class identity and a reading of working class and middle class health identities. Hegemonic gender identities of women as carers and men as uncaring, active agents are then examined. Ethnicity as health identity emerges as a site of solidarity and fragmentation closely linked to place via the concept of community. Finally, constructions of pollution, space and community provide a structural and spacial grounding to health identities associated with place. In conclusion, the usefulness of this social psychological analysis is evaluated in consideration of individualisation in ideologies of health, interpreted as 'internalised oppression', 'methodological product' and 'an assertion of agency' in the context of recent debate about identity in late modem society. In sum, the thesis both examines the social structuring of subjects and foregrounds the ethical and political dimensions of the ideologies of health within which inequalities research must recognise its' reflexive engagement

Algunes de les troballes més importants han estat que les desigualtats socioeconòmiques i de gènere persisteixen entre les persones grans; que les dones presenten una pitjor salut que els homes; que l’impacte de les característiques familiars en la salut de les persones grans varia per gènere i segons l’indicador de salut analitzat; que el suport social constitueix un determinant important de l’estat de salut; i que tot i que el grau de desenvolupament regional constitueix un determinant de l’estat de salut, no està relacionat amb les desigualtats de gènere en salut.
This dissertation analyses socio-economic inequalities in health among the elderly through a combined framework of socio-economic position, gender, regional socioeconomic development and social support. It is made up of three papers focusing on the different dimensions of socio-economic inequalities in health among the elderly. The most important findings are that socio-economic and gender inequalities in health persist in old age; that women present a poorer health status than men; that the impact of family characteristics on the health of older people differs by gender and the health indicator analysed; that social support constitutes an important determinant of health status; and that whereas regional socio-economic development constitutes a determinant of health status, it is not related to gender inequalities in health.

Abstract:
Background: It has been suggested that interventions focusing on individual behaviour change, such as behavioural weight management interventions, may exacerbate health inequalities. These intervention-generated inequalities may occur at different stages, including intervention uptake, adherence and effectiveness. We conducted a systematic review to synthesise evidence on how different measures of inequality moderate the uptake of, adherence to and effectiveness of behavioural weight management interventions in adults. Methods: We updated a previous systematic literature review from the US Preventive Services Taskforce to identify trials of behavioural weight management interventions in adults that could be conducted in or recruited from primary care. Medline, Cochrane database (CENTRAL) and PsycINFO were searched. Only randomised controlled trials and cluster-randomised controlled trials were included. Two investigators independently screened articles for eligibility and conducted risk of bias assessment. We curated publication families for eligible trials. The PROGRESS-Plus acronym (place of residence, race/ethnicity, occupation, gender, religion, education, socioeconomic status, social capital, plus other discriminating factors) was used to consider a comprehensive range of health inequalities. Data on trial uptake, intervention adherence, weight change, and PROGRESS-Plus related-data were extracted. Results: Data extraction in currently underway. A total of 108 studies are included in the review. Data will be synthesised narratively and through the use of Harvest Plots. A Harvest plot for each PROGRESS-Plus criterion will be presented, showing whether each trial found a negative, positive or no health inequality gradient. We will also identify potential sources of unpublished original research data on these factors which can be synthesised through a future individual participant data meta- analysis. Conclusions and implications: The review findings will contribute towards the consideration of intervention-generated inequalities by researchers, policy makers and healthcare and public health practitioners. Authors of trials included in the completed systematic review may be invited to collaborate on a future IPD meta-analysis. PROSPERO registration number: CRD42020173242

Abstract:
There is increasing evidence that wellbeing is unequally distributed across sociodemographicgroups in contemporary societies. However, less is known about thedivergence across social groups of trajectories of wellbeing across age groups.This issue is of great relevance in contexts characterised by changing populationstructures and growing imbalances across and within generations, and in whichensuring that everyone has the opportunity to have a happy and healthy life courseis a primary welfare goal. In this study, we investigate wellbeing trends in Franceand Switzerland across age, gender, and socioeconomic status groups. We use twohousehold surveys (the Sant´e et Itin´eraires Professionnels and the Swiss HouseholdPanel) to compare the unfolding inequalities in health and wellbeing across agegroups in two rich countries. We view wellbeing as multidimensional, followingthe literature highlighting the importance of considering different dimensions andmeasures of wellbeing. Thus, we investigate a number of outcomes, includingdifferent measures of physical and mental health, as well as of relational wellbeing,using a linear regression model and a linear probability model. Our findings showinteresting country and dimension-specific heterogeneities in the development ofhealth and wellbeing over age. While our results indicate that there are gender andeducational inequalities in both Switzerland and France, and that gender inequalitiesin mental health accumulate with age in both countries, we also find that educationalinequalities in health and wellbeing remain rather stable across age groups.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic is deepening pre-existing inequalities. Emerging research suggests that people with disabilities across the world have experienced various rights violations and been disproportionality affected by the health, economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses to it. The aim of this research was to explore how people with disabilities, who often are excluded from research, have experienced the evolving COVID-19 pandemic in Kenya. To better understand how it has affected jobseekers with disabilities, in-depth qualitative research was conducted in Kenya as part of the Inclusion Works programme.

Full text
Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed long-standing social inequalities and vulnerabilities, with the most disadvantaged and marginalised groups bearing the greatest health, social, and economic burdens. Beyond documenting these vulnerabilities, there is a need to mitigate them and support the resilience of marginalised communities. ‘Community resilience’ can bolster community capacity to cope with the pressures of various shocks; this brief explores how its concepts can be applied to epidemics. It reviews the grey and academic literature on different approaches to community resilience. It covers 1) terminology, 2) lessons from practice, 3) the context of community resilience, 4) a systems approach, and 5) key human and social capacities. Social justice, inequality, equity, and fairness are highlighted as themes in need of further development for resilience as it relates to epidemic preparedness and response. This brief was developed for SSHAP by IDS (led by Megan Schmidt-Sane with Tabitha Hrynick) with Anthrologica (Eva Niederberger).

Full text
Abstract:
As the unequal impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues, there is a need to robustly support vulnerable communities and bolster ‘community resilience.’ A community resilience approach means to work in partnership with communities and strengthen their capacities to mitigate the impact of the pandemic, including its social and economic fallout. However, this is not resilience which returns the status quo. This moment demands transformative change in which inequalities are tackled and socioeconomic conditions are improved. While a community resilience approach is relatively new to epidemic preparedness and response, it frames epidemic shocks more holistically and from the perspective of a whole system. While epidemic response often focuses on mitigating vulnerabilities, there is an opportunity to use a resilience framework to build existing capacities to manage health, social, psychosocial, and economic impacts of an epidemic. This makes a resilience approach more localised, adaptable, and sustainable in the long-term, which are key tenets of an epidemic response informed by social science. This brief presents considerations for how health and humanitarian practitioners can support communities to respond to and recover from COVID-19 using a community resilience approach.
