Background: Deprivation is associated with inequalities in health care and higher morbidity and mortality. To assess the reliability of a new individual deprivation score, the EPICES score and to analyse the association between the Townsend index, the Carstairs index and the EPICES score and causes of death in one French administrative region.
Methods: Eligible patients were 16 years old or more who had come for consultation in Health Examination Centres of the French administrative region of Nord-Pas-de-Calais.
Article Synopsis
- Social vulnerability can cause significant psychological distress, prompting the need for targeted mental health interventions.
- The Health Examination Center of Côtes d'Armor created a psychological counseling program specifically for socio-economically vulnerable individuals facing sleep disorders and lacking support.
- This program, integrated into routine health examinations, provides a non-stigmatizing environment for marginalized individuals to receive counseling, prevention services, and access to care.

Objectives: This study is an update, over the period 1954-2004, of a previous meta-analysis completed in 1994. It was aimed at assessing lung cancer risk among welders, while addressing heterogeneity, publication bias, and confounding issues.
Methods: Combined relative risks (CRR) and their variances were calculated using fixed and random effects models.
Objective: Previous studies have related poor glycemic control and/or some diabetes complications to low socioeconomic status. Some aspects of socioeconomic status have not been assessed in these studies. In the present study, we used an individual index of deprivation, the Evaluation de la Précarité et des Inégalités de santé dans les Centres d'Examens de Santé (Evaluation of Precarity and Inequalities in Health Examination Centers [EPICES]) score, to determine the relationship among glycemic control, diabetes complications, and individual conditions of deprivation.
