Abstract:
Landscape development[1] can provide many benefits, including the reduction of stormwater runoff and the creation of habitats for wildlife. It can also provide health benefits. Researchers, such as Roger Ulrich and Rita Berto have demonstrated that views of trees and other vegetation are associated with lower blood pressure and reduced recovery times in hospitals and that environments with more natural elements may lessen mental fatigue (R. Ulrich 1984) and (Berto 2005). As rebuilding in New Orleans continues 11 years after Hurricane Katrina, landscape development has been limited or lacking, especially in the redevelopment of commercial properties. Two prominent reasons for this deficiency are a lack of funding and, until August of 2015, the absence of a comprehensive landscape ordinance. The purpose of the research presented here is to determine the degree to which community residents express a preference for healthier commercial environments. As part of my research, I measured community perceptions of four potential redevelopment concepts for a blighted strip shopping center utilizing attention restoration theory (ART), which postulates that certain environmental qualities contribute to reductions in mental fatigue. I found that commercial environments with the most quality landscaping[2] are those that neighborhood residents most prefer and are most conducive to better health. Keywords: mental fatigue, attention restoration theory, perceived restoration scale, commercial landscape quantity, public health, healthy urban environment [1] Refer to operational definitions (pages 4-6).

Abstract:
Urban environments are very complex systems with a myriad of factors intricately related. Built environment, transport, physical activity and sedentary behaviours, air pollution, and social contacts and feelings of loneliness can have effects on urban population’s health and well-being. Also, some of these determinants can be associated and can interact between them modifying their effects on health. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), health is “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. Taking into account this comprehensive health definition, this thesis covered different layers of health: general, mental, and physical. With four different studies, the results of the present thesis suggest that it is possible to design urban environments that can increase physical activity levels, mainly through active transport, and that the crime-safety perceptions can have an important role in terms of reinforcing the effects of the built environment on physical activity and sedentary behaviours. Furthermore, active transport, mainly bicycle use, seems to be a source of good mental health and well-being, and a tool to boost social capital production. Increasing physical activity levels also seems to be a good way to improve cardiovascular health through blood pressure levels reduction. The present thesis suggests that urban and transport planning have a great potential to promote healthy behaviours and ensure mental and physical health of city dwellers, mainly through active transport promotion. In order to improve the health promotion through urban environment, more research about aesthetics urban attributes, urban social capital production, effects on mental health and well-being, and effectiveness of urban interventions is needed.
Los entornos urbanos son sistemas muy complejos con una miríada de factores intrincadamente relacionados. El entorno construido, el transporte, la actividad física y los comportamientos sedentarios, la contaminación del aire y los contactos sociales y los sentimientos de soledad pueden tener efectos en la salud y el bienestar de la población urbana. Además, algunos de estos determinantes se pueden asociar y pueden interactuar entre ellos modificando sus efectos sobre la salud. Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), la salud es "un estado de completo bienestar físico, mental y social y no simplemente la ausencia de enfermedades o dolencias". Teniendo en cuenta esta definición integral de salud, esta tesis cubre diferentes niveles de salud: general, mental y física. Con cuatro estudios diferentes, los resultados de la presente tesis sugieren que es posible diseñar entornos urbanos que puedan aumentar los niveles de actividad física, principalmente a través del transporte activo, y que las percepciones de seguridad con respecto al crimen pueden tener un papel importante en términos de reforzar los efectos del entorno construido sobre la actividad física y los comportamientos sedentarios. Además, el transporte activo, principalmente el uso de bicicletas, parece ser una fuente de buena salud mental y bienestar, y una herramienta para impulsar la producción de capital social. El aumento de los niveles de actividad física también parece ser una buena forma de mejorar la salud cardiovascular a través de la reducción de los niveles de presión arterial. La presente tesis sugiere que la planificación urbana y de transporte tienen un gran potencial para promover comportamientos saludables y garantizar la salud mental y física de los habitantes de las ciudades, principalmente a través de la promoción del transporte activo. Para ir mejorando la promoción de la salud a través del entorno urbano, se necesita más investigación sobre los atributos urbanos estéticos, la producción de capital social urbano, los efectos sobre la salud mental y el bienestar, y la efectividad de las intervenciones urbanas

Abstract:
This thesis analyses heat health risk spatially in Birmingham (UK) via a combination of remote sensing and GIS techniques, including urban influences which are not generally considered in heat risk assessments or climate change projections. The world’s urban population is growing rapidly, and the risk of extreme heat to human health has been highlighted by recent events such as the 2003 heatwave in Europe, where mortality rates significantly increased. This thesis presents a methodology using satellite data to quantify the surface urban heat island of Birmingham at 1 km resolution, with results showing extreme events are much warmer (\(\sim\)5°C) than average conditions (\(\sim\)2°C). This urban heat island data is combined with social data in a spatial risk assessment, illustrating that many vulnerable people live in areas of increased heat risk. A custom collection of ground based sensors is utilised to investigate the relationship between surface and air temperatures, finding air temperatures are warmer than LST measurements at night. Then UK Climate Projections 2009 are used to explore the influence of the urban heat island on climate projections in Birmingham, showing that changes could be large (90% increase in minimum temperature under 2080s extreme scenarios).

Objectives: The purposes of this study was to assess the perceptions of individuals directly and indirectly involved in the operations of public housing developments across the U.S, to better understand how these perceptions of oral healthcare might influence the development of initiatives targeted a improving overall healthcare among individuals living in public housing developments. Methods: The target population was the 180 attendees of the 2010 meeting of the Health Care for Residents of Public Housing National Conference. A ten-question survey which assessed conference attendees' beliefs about oral health and its importance to public housing residents was distributed. Data was analyzed using SAS 9.1. Descriptive statistics were calculated for each variable and results were stratified by participants' roles. Free response question were compiled according to specific criteria. Results: Sixty participants were surveyed. The majority of survey participants resided in Massachusetts (n=16; 27.1%) and Ohio (n=11; 18.6%) with a total of 18 states represented in the completed surveys. Among all participants, 38.6 percent rated oral health as one of the top three health issues faced by public housing residents and that residents of public housing developments believe oral health is the 'Most Important' health issue. Those respondents who worked within a Housing Authority, the largest represented role, chose Oral Healthcare as the greatest of the three health needs followed by 'Access to Nutritional Food' and 'Access to Primary Healthcare'. The majority (n=11; 50%) of public housing residents preferred using the term 'Dental Health' as compared to Agency Representatives (n=3; 50%) and Housing Authority employees (n=12; 50%), both of whom preferred the term 'Oral Health'. Conclusions: According to survey participants, Oral Health is a one of the greatest unmet needs for public housing residents. And while some participants come from housing developments that have programs in place to promote health issues, the majority of participants report having no such programs in place. Important to also note are the similarities and differences shared by participants who serve in different roles within a public housing development (i.e. residents v. housing authority). While there was no noted difference in preference to the term Oral Health versus Dental Health, it is worth noting the responses of participants who had different interpretations of the two terms. Limitations of this survey include sample size, and further analysis on this subject might include specific surveys targeted at residents of public housing or to those who are involved in the operations of public housing developments.

Abstract:
The effect of family structure on household nutrition intake and the effect of wine, beer, and spirits consumption on household nutrition and health are examined. To evaluate nutrition intake, an Eating Healthy Index (EHI) is developed following the Compilation of Food-Based Dietary Guidelines, published by the Chinese Nutrition Society, and the Healthy Eating Index-2010 components and standards for scoring from USDA. Using previously collected household survey data from 11 cities in China, an EHI is developed and calculated for each family to assess their nutrition intake. The score is calculated such that it increases if consumption is in a range representing healthy food intake. The relationship between the score, representing healthy nutrition intake, and household income, wife's education level, demographics, and household composition is explored using regression analysis. The results indicate that changes in family structure have significant effects on household nutrition intake.

Abstract:
The study aimed to describe: the epidemiology of self-reported chronic respiratory disease, patterns of respiratory-related health service utilisation and quality of life in the community in Scotland, in relation to rural and urban locations, and to investigate change over time. At baseline compared with urban respondents, rural respondents reported a significantly lower prevalence of any chest illness, asthma, more than two other chronic conditions and eczema/dermatitis. Rural respondents were less likely to report a number of respiratory symptoms. Respiratory-related health service utilisation was significantly lower among respondents from rural rather than urban practices. Rural residency appeared to be associated with better health status among those with COPD and/or emphysema but the results were not adjusted for potential confounding. At follow-up, the cumulative incidence of self-reported chronic respiratory disease and respiratory symptoms was similar among respondents from rural and urban practices. Patterns of respiratory-related health service use were similar to baseline. There was no evidence of significant rural-urban differences in changes in quality of life scores. The Scottish Executive Urban Rural Classification produced similar results to the general practice-based rural-urban definition. The intermethod reliability study found that some conditions tended to be over-reported, especially those likely to be self-diagnosed. Importantly, there did not appear to be any systematic rural-urban difference in the strength of agreement between self-reported information and the medical records. Where there were rural-urban differences in mean FEV1, FVC or PEF values, rural residents had higher (better) values than urban dwellers.

Abstract:
Recognition that city-dwelling people can benefit from contact with nature is not new. The urban open air movement of the 19th century advised retention of greenways and development of urban parks and gardens to stop disease spread through lack of fresh air, poor sanitation and overcrowding. Now, in the early 21st century, urban green spaces are under threat from inner city infill projects and clearing of remnant vegetation to accommodate suburban sprawl. While much literature discusses positive health benefits of contact with nature, few studies explore explicit pathways between urban green space and health, despite mounting concern that disassociation between people and nature in urban communities may be detrimental to physical and mental health. This study explored how people’s attitudes toward nature might influence perceptions of nearby green spaces and feelings of attachment to living in their neighbourhood, and in turn, whether people with positive attitudes towards nature and positive perceptions of nearby green space would report better health. A mixed method research design was adopted in this study. Exploration of research questions required objective measurement of relationships between different aspects of health and nature, and interpretation of the subjective meanings people attach to those relationships. Study design involved distribution of a cross-sectional survey to residents in four neighbourhoods in Perth, Western Australia with respondents invited to participate in a semi-structured interview. Neighbourhoods were selected based on location (either an inner or outer suburban area), age of neighbourhood (established or new), diversity of nearby green space, and socio-demographic characteristics. Data from 440 surveys and 25 interviews were analysed. Attitudes towards urban nature were diverse and it was clear that feelings about natural environments strongly influenced preference and perceptions of useable green spaces, and for some people, their choice of neighbourhood. In essence, people who enjoyed spending time in nature were more inclined to seek green spaces within their neighbourhood environment that provided complexity and opportunities for exploration or escape. Those who professed little connection to nature and saw bushland areas as untidy, uninviting or unsafe, tended to be more concerned about aesthetic and functional aspects of green space design and preferred to visit ‘civilised’ parks and gardens with manicured lawns, formal paths and playgrounds. Green spaces were important sites for physical activity, relaxation and social interaction and proximity to useable green space was a significant factor in predicting better selfreported health. In addition, neighbourhoods with trees and greenways were described as healthier places to live. People who lived in close proximity to parks and green spaces where social interaction regularly occurred, who reported that diverse green spaces and bushland areas were being retained in their neighbourhood, who cared about environmental issues and were interested in being involved in conservation activities, were more likely to report better physical function, general health, mental health and feelings of vitality. People who regularly visited nearby green spaces described feeling happier and more satisfied with living in their neighbourhood. Encouraging people to regularly visit and become actively involved in caring for local nature reserves and parklands can play an important role in health promotion and preventive health strategies. Conservation, useability and management of diverse green spaces must be considered as a critical element of urban planning. This will only occur with continuing recognition of the health benefits that can be achieved by retaining diverse, quality green spaces within suburban neighbourhoods.

Abstract:
Introduction Maintaining good life quality in urban neighbourhoods is one of the biggest challenges. The project "Healthy Neighbourhoods - Health Promotion and Prevention in Districts" ( 07/201712/2020) aims to describe and improve health and quality of life of citizens living in neighbourhoods with different socioeconomic statuses. Method To examine a possible connection between social and health situation, six districts with "very low", "low", "middle" and "high" social statuses will be compared. An instrument was developed to measure walkability, community sense, nutrition, alcohol and tobacco consumption, resilience, health-related quality of life as well as the socio-economic and the socio-demographic status. Results In April 2019, the team recorded n=621 interviews (n=102 in Lohbrügge, n=116 in Rahlstedt, n=87 in Sasel, n=135 in Stellingen, n=65 Wilhelmsburg and n=116 in Hamm). Men were somewhat overrepresented compared to women (n=268 woman, n=345 men, n=2 diverse, n=8 no indication). Respondents were aged between 18 - 96 (mean = 57.5, SD = 19.6). Discussion The results demonstrate different health situations, resources and challenges regarding the socio-economic status and the district respectively.

Abstract:
This paper presents an innovative public–private partnership to revive the urban primary health center (UPHC) system of Nagpur City in Maharashtra State, India. From the baseline assessment, the partnership between the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) and Tata Trusts identified that the low utilization of UPHCs was due to inadequate infrastructure of the health centers, fewer working hours, inadequately trained human resources, and availability of staff only for a short time. A road map consisting of three phases was jointly prepared by NMC and Tata Trusts to improve the quality of service in 26 UPHCs, of which phase 3 is currently underway.
