To use or not to use proprietary street view images in (health and place) research? That is the question
Health Place. 2024 Apr 9;87:103244. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103244. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTComputer vision-based analysis of street view imagery has transformative impacts on environmental assessments. Interactive web services, particularly Google Street View, play an ever-important role in making imagery data ubiquitous. Despite the technical ease of harnessing millions of Google Street View images, this article questions the current practices in using this proprietary data source from a European viewpoint. Our concern lies with Google's terms of service, which restrict bulk image downloads and the generati...

Impacts of social deprivation on mortality and protective effects of greenness exposure in Hong Kong, 1999-2018: A spatiotemporal perspective
Health Place. 2024 Apr 9;87:103241. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103241. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAddressing health inequality is crucial for fostering healthy city development. However, there is a dearth of literature simultaneously investigating the effects of social deprivation and greenness exposure on mortality risks, as well as how greenness exposure may mitigate the adverse effect of social deprivation on mortality risks from a spatiotemporal perspective. Drawing on socioeconomic, remote sensing, and mortality record data, this study presents spatiotemporal patterns of social deprivation, population weighted...

Local retail food environment exposure and diet quality in rural and urban adults: A longitudinal analysis of the ORISCAV-LUX cohort study
Health Place. 2024 Apr 8;87:103240. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103240. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDespite growing interest in understanding how food environments shape dietary behaviors, European longitudinal evidence is scarce. We aimed to investigate the associations of 9-year average and change in exposure to local retail food environments with the diet quality of residents in Luxembourg. We used data from 566 adults enrolled in both waves of the nationwide ORISCAV-LUX study (2007-2017). Dietary quality was assessed by the Diet Quality Index-International (DQI-I). Exposure to "healthy" and "less healthy" food ou...

Associations between residential greenness and obesity phenotypes among adults in Southwest China
CONCLUSIONS: Exposure to residential greenness was associated with decreased risks of MHO, MUO, and MUNO, which was mediated by concentrations of PM and PA level, and modified by sex, age, educational level, and urbanicity.PMID:38593578 | DOI:10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103236 (Source: Health and Place)

Associations between outdoor play features and children's behavior and health: A systematic review
Health Place. 2024 Apr 2;87:103235. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103235. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe decline of children's opportunities to play outdoors raises a new concern about the quality of outdoor play environments, and their developmental and well-being benefits for children. This systematic review aims to synthesize the associations between outdoor play features and children's behavior and health. PRISMA guidelines were followed (2021). The inclusion criteria were studies with children aged between 5 and 12 (Population); that addressed presence, absence or disposition of equipment, natural elements, loose...

Changes in the number and outcome of takeaway food outlet planning applications in response to adoption of management zones around schools in England: A time series analysis
Health Place. 2024 Apr 1;87:103237. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103237. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPhysical exposure to takeaway food outlets ("takeaways") is associated with poor diet and excess weight, which are leading causes of excess morbidity and mortality. At the end of 2017, 35 local authorities (LAs) in England had adopted takeaway management zones (or "exclusion zones"), which is an urban planning intervention designed to reduce physical exposure to takeaways around schools. In this nationwide, natural experimental study, we used interrupted time series analyses to estimate the impact of this intervention ...

Urban densification in the Netherlands and its impact on mental health: An expert-based causal loop diagram
Health Place. 2024 Apr 1;87:103218. doi: 10.1016/j.healthplace.2024.103218. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUrban densification is a key strategy to accommodate rapid urban population growth, but emerging evidence suggests serious risks of urban densification for individuals' mental health. To better understand the complex pathways from urban densification to mental health, we integrated interdisciplinary expert knowledge in a causal loop diagram via group model building techniques. Six subsystems were identified: five subsystems describing mechanisms on how changes in the urban system caused by urban densification may impac...
