Municipal socioeconomic environment and recreational cannabis use in Mexico: Analysis of two nationally representative surveys.
Int J Drug Policy
January 2025
Center for Population Health Research, National Institute of Public Health, Cuernavaca, Mexico. Electronic address:
Background: Recreational cannabis use is increasing in Mexico, where legalization is a possibility. The current area-level socioeconomic context of cannabis use has not been studied in the country, limiting our understanding and public health response. We aimed to analyze the association between the municipal socioeconomic environment and recreational cannabis use in Mexico.

February 2025
AP-HP, Département de santé publique, Hôpital universitaire Henri Mondor.
Background And Importance: Prolonged emergency medical services' response times (EMS-RT) are associated with poorer outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The patient access time interval (PATI), from vehicle stop until contact with patient, may be increased in areas with low socioeconomic status (SES).
Objectives: The objective of this study is to identify predictors of prolonged EMS-RT intervals, and to evaluate associations with clinical outcomes in OHCAs occurring in the largest metropolitan area in France.
Model-Based Prioritization of Adolescent Girls and Young Women for HIV Prevention Services Based on Data from 13 Sub-Saharan African Countries.

Division of Global HIV and TB, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Harare, Zimbabwe.
Article Synopsis
- Adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) aged 15-24 are at a higher risk for HIV compared to young men, highlighting the need for targeted prevention strategies.
- A Bayesian spatial model was created to analyze household health survey data from 13 sub-Saharan African countries, estimating individual risk factors and population viral load (PVL) to identify high-risk AGYW districts.
- The study found that PVL is the strongest predictor of HIV positivity, with significant increases in risk associated with having an HIV-positive partner, enabling better targeting of prevention efforts.
Background/objective: Depression is a complex mental health disorder influenced by various social determinants of health (SDOH) at individual and community levels. Area-level factors and intersectionality framework, which considers overlapping personal identities, are used in this paper to get a nuanced picture of depression disparities.
Methods: This cross-sectional study uses electronic health records data from the All of Us research network.
A Scoping Review and Assessment of the Area-Level Composite Measures That Estimate Social Determinants of Health Across the United States.
Public Health Rep
December 2024
Office of Planning, Analysis, and Evaluation, Health Resources and Services Administration, US Department of Health and Human Services, Rockville, MD, USA.
Objectives: Evidence-informed population health initiatives often leverage data from various sources, such as epidemiologic surveillance data and administrative datasets. Recent interest has arisen in using area-level composite measures describing a community's social risks to inform the development and implementation of health policies, including payment reform initiatives. Our objective was to capture the breadth of available area-level composite measures that describe social determinants of health (SDH) and have potential for application in population health and policy work.
