Objective To analyse the association between level of use injury risk estimation feedback (I-REF) provided to athletes and burden during an athletics season. Method We conducted a prospective cohort study over 38-week follow-up period on competing at French Federation Athletics. Athletes completed daily questionnaires their activity, psychological state, sleep, self-reported I-REF use, injuries. for next day, ranging from 0% (no injury) 100% (maximum injury). The primary outcome was follow-up, defined as number days with per 1000 hours activity. A negative binomial regression model used burden. Results Of 897 who met inclusion criteria, 112 (38% women) were included in analysis. mean response rate 37%±30%. analysis found no significant (n=112, e β : 0.992, 95% CI: 0.977 1.007; p=0.308).

Behavioral risk factors, such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, obesity, and unhealthy food intake are added factors for severe outcomes of COVID-19 infections. Preventive measures to avoid infections therefore particularly important individuals engaging in behavioral factors. We seek determine whether (BRFs) play a significant role the adherence preventive population aged 50 above. The SHARE wave 8 (Survey Health, Ageing Retirement Europe) Survey served database, resulting an analytical sample 17,588 respondents from 23 European countries plus Israel. Of these 36.04% engaged at least one BRF 16.68% 3 or more BRFs. Multilevel logistic regressions revealed that engagement was significantly associated with less hygiene measures, i.e., hand-sanitizing, hand-washing covering coughs sneezes (OR: 0.86; 95% CI: 0.78; 0.94), two BRFs 0.85; 0.74; 0.97) three 0.72; 0.59; 0.88). No association found between adherences social isolation avoiding meeting than five people, visiting others going shopping, regulated wearing mask keeping distance. also stronger when were (1 vs. BRFs: χ2 = 3.43, p 0.06; 2 6.05; 0.01). study gives insight into protective behavior inherent vulnerability during global health emergency.

Evaluation of the Global Health Security Index as a predictor of COVID-19 excess mortality standardised for under-reporting and age structure

BMJ Global Health, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 8(7), P. e012203 - e012203

Published: June 1, 2023

Background Previous studies have observed that countries with the strongest levels of pandemic preparedness capacities experience greatest COVID-19 burden. However, these analyses been limited by cross-country differentials in surveillance system quality and demographics. Here, we address limitations previous comparisons exploring country-level relationships between measures comparative mortality ratios (CMRs), a form indirect age standardisation, excess mortality. Methods We indirectly standardised mortality, from Institute for Health Metrics Evaluation modelling database, comparing total to an expected age-specific rate reference country derive CMRs. then linked CMRs data on Global Security (GHS) Index. These were used as input into multivariable linear regression included income covariate adjusted multiple comparisons. conducted sensitivity analysis using estimates WHO The Economist. Results GHS Index was negatively associated (β= −0.21, 95% CI=−0.33, −0.10). Greater related prevention −0.11, CI= −0.20 −0.03), detection (β=−0.09, −0.17 −0.02), response (β = −0.19, −0.32 −0.05), international commitments −0.17, −0.30 −0.04) risk environments −0.30, −0.42 −0.18) each lower After adjustment hypotheses, (table 2; β= CI=−0.41, −0.02) environment CI=−0.50, −0.10) remained deaths. not replicated models rely more heavily reported deaths (eg, Economist). Conclusion first direct comparison rates across accounting under-reporting structure confirms greater Additional research is needed confirm robust national-level impact become available.
