Efficacy and safety of different inhaler types for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. a systematic review and meta-analysis - npj Primary Care Respiratory Medicine
Abstract Pressurised metered dose inhalers (pMDIs) contain propellant gases with high global warming potential yet remain a cornerstone of management for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of this study was to determine whether non-propellant alternatives of dry powder inhalers (DPIs) and soft mist inhalers (SMIs) had similar efficacy and safety.
Resilience measurement for environmental shocks and stressors: scale development and psychometric assessment for coastal urban informal settlements in Fiji and Indonesia | BMC Global and Public Health | Full Text
We developed three separate scales to measure economic, environmental, and social urban household resilience to environmental disturbances. We used factor analysis and item response theory (IRT) methods to evaluate the factor structure and measurement properties of the scales. Additionally, we assessed the scales’ internal validity and reliability.

Assessing E. coli levels in surface soils of informal settlements using boot sock and standard grab methods
Abstract Rapid urbanization leads to the growth of informal settlements, where inadequate sanitation infrastructure is common, thus promoting environmental contamination and risk of gastrointestinal infection. Soil contamination contributes to the transmission of enteropathogens, but traditional sampling approaches may poorly indicate public health risks due to limited spatial representation.
The unseen climate health risks of antimicrobial resistance in urban informal settlements - Nature Medicine
Over a billion people worldwide live in informal settlements in developing cities1 without basic infrastructure and services such as safe sanitation and clean water. Often located on marginal flood-prone or unstable land, these communities, which make up 20–40% of the urban population in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), stand to be some of the most severely affected by a changing climate.
Travel-associated illness in children in pre-pandemic Western Sydney
Introduction Australians are avid overseas travellers who frequently travel with their children. In 2019, the year before the COVID-19 pandemic, there were a record 11.3 million re-entries into Australia by residents who had taken a short-term (less than one year) overseas trip1; 1.3 million of these were by children aged 14 years or younger. Children are mostly obligate, passive travellers to destinations chosen by their parents or carers.
COP28: Say Climate Crisis, Think Health Crisis
In 2023, Canada endured its “worst wildfire season in recorded history”, flooding in Derna, Libya an “unprecedented humanitarian crisis” and extreme weather events continue to rage around the world. The climate crisis is already affecting millions: bringing death, injuries and mental health consequences, as well as the loss of homes, livelihoods, health services and critical infrastructure like power, transport and communications.
COP28: Say climate crisis, think health crisis
By Angie Bone, Karin Leder, Tin Tin Su and Tony Capon The climate crisis is already affecting millions: bringing death, injuries and mental health consequences, as well as the loss of homes, livelihoods, health services and critical infrastructure like power, transport and communications. By now, there should be no doubt: the climate crisis is also a health crisis.
COP28: Say climate crisis, think health crisis
COP28 will include the first dedicated ‘Health Day’. It’s due recognition that a health crisis is inextricably linked to the climate crisis. In 2023, Canada endured its “worst wildfire season in recorded history”, flooding in Derna, Libya an “unprecedented humanitarian crisis” and extreme weather events continue to rage around the world.

Associations between COVID‐19 and hospitalisation with respiratory and non‐respiratory conditions: a record linkage study
Med J Aust || doi: 10.5694/mja2.51778 Published online: 28 November 2022 The known: COVID‐19 has been linked with increased risks of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and thrombotic disease events. The new: In our self‐control case series, hospitalisations of people with myocarditis and pericarditis, pulmonary embolism, acute myocardial infarction, and stroke were significantly more frequent after COVID‐19.

The known: COVID-19 has been linked with increased risks of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and thrombotic disease events. The new: In our self-control case series, hospitalisations of people with myocarditis and pericarditis, pulmonary embolism, acute myocardial infarction, and stroke were significantly more frequent after COVID-19. The increase for acute myocardial infarction was greatest during the week after COVID-19 onset, and for pulmonary embolism 14–89 days after its onset.

Effect of aspirin on deaths associated with sepsis in healthy older people (ANTISEPSIS): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled primary prevention trial
Summary Background Sepsis is a serious global health issue and a major cause of death and disability. The availability of a simple, community-based preventive strategy could substantially reduce the burden of sepsis. We aimed to establish whether low-dose aspirin reduced deaths or hospital admissions associated with sepsis in older people.
A high proportion of interseasonal childhood influenza cases in 2019 were travel related

Water-sensitive innovations to transform health of slums and environment
Polluted water and inadequate water supply, sanitation and hygiene cause around 80% of diseases and one in four deaths in developing countries. The world is recognising that existing strategies simply aren’t working. We are starting a five-year project early this year to implement an innovative water-sensitive approach to revitalise 24 informal settlements in Fiji and Indonesia.
