Int J Public Health
December 2023
Regional differences in diabetes mortality are high in Hungary. In our cross-sectional study, we aim to reveal the drivers of the inequalities in diabetes mortality across the 197 microregions of Hungary. To account for the influence of changes in healthcare and social conditions, we compared two periods (2009-12 and 2013-16).

We explored adaptive changes in Hungarian students' behaviour and their time-budget in order to determine whether quarantine and/or fear of infection were responsible for these changes.
Methods: A self-administered online questionnaire was distributed to all students in the Hungarian language program ( = 7436) of Semmelweis University.
Background: Throughout Europe, differences in satisfaction with HIV-care of people living with HIV (PLHIV) persist, despite a tendency towards harmonisation of policy and management.
Methods: A European sample of 1,549 PLHIV responded to an anonymous questionnaire assessing demographic background, general health, mental health, sexual health, and HIV-service provision. We compared the results across 3 regions: Western, Southern and Central/Eastern Europe.
Article Synopsis
- * It assesses the epidemiological training and research landscape, noting that advanced training is seen in Israel and some Eastern European countries, while research is often limited by external funding shortages.
- * The findings suggest that the epidemiological capacity varies widely due to historical, social, and economic differences between countries, and emphasizes the need for increased research funding and collaboration, particularly in South-Central Asia.
Background: Several models have been proposed to explain the association between ethnicity and health. It was investigated whether the association between Roma ethnicity and health is fully mediated by socioeconomic status in Hungary.
Methods: Comparative health interview surveys were performed in 2003-04 on representative samples of the Hungarian population and inhabitants of Roma settlements.
