Title A continuing concern : HIV and hepatitis testing and prevalence among drug users in substitution programs in Zurich, Switzerland Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication AIDS Care Abbreviated Journal
Volume 12 Issue 4 Pages 449-460
Keywords health promotion
Abstract Phase I of the Zurich Prometheus Study is a cross-sectional study focusing on an up-to-date serology for HIV and hepatitis B/C and associated risk factors for all clients in four participating clinics offering opiate substitution in Zurich, Switzerland. The mean age of the 603 respondents is 30.7 years (SD=6.2), and 38% of them are women. Seventy-five percent of the respondents have a history of injecting drug use (IDU), and over half have injected within the past six months. Lab-confirmed seroprevalence for HBV (50%) and HCV (57%) is twice that of HIV (24%). There is an 80% risk reduction for all three viral infections among those starting IDU after 1991—when harm reduction efforts were in full swing—compared to those who began before 1988—before clean needles were widely available. These findings suggest a strongly protective effective of harm reduction measures. But while a stabilization in HIV prevalence at 15% can be seen among drug users who started injecting after 1991, prevalence rates for HBV and HCV still remain several times higher. The prevalence data in this study support data showing continued high incidence rates for HBV and HCV, even among new injectors in the harm reduction era.

Title Healthy Places : exploring the evidence Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication American journal of public health : official journal of the American Public Health Association Abbreviated Journal
Volume 93 Issue 9; 09/2003 Pages 1451-1456
Keywords public health; public area; psychology
Abstract “Sense of place” is a widely discussed concept in fields as diverse as geography, environmental psychology, and art, but it has little traction in the field of public health. The health impact of place includes physical, psychological, social, spiritual, and aesthetic outcomes. In this article, the author introduces sense of place as a public health construct. While many recommendations for “good places” are available, few are based on empirical evidence, and thus they are incompatible with current public health practice. Evidencebased recommendations for healthy place making could have important public health implications. Four aspects of the built environment, at different spatial scales – nature contact, buildings, public spaces, and urban form – are identified as offering promising opportunities for public health research, and potential research agendas for each are discussed.
