Factors associated with hypertension and diabetes in rural communities in the Asante Akim North Municipality of Ghana
<p>Hypertension and diabetes are leading non-communicable diseases driving an epidemic of cardiovascular diseases in Ghana. Understanding the factors associated with the occurrence of hypertension and diabetes especially in rural settings is crucial in designing interventions to improve awareness, detection, and control. The study assessed factors associated with hypertension and diabetes in Asante Akim North Municipality, a rural community in the central belt of Ghana. A cross-sectional study design involving 2,576 participants. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire to cover socio-demographic characteristics, blood pressure measurement, anthropometric measurement, biochemical parameters, and modifiable risk factors of hypertension and diabetes. Descriptive statistics on the outcome were done. Factors associated with hypertension or diabetes were assessed using a multivariable logistic regression model. he study found that participants' mean age was 35 years (SD) with<strong> </strong>a slight female preponderance representing 53.88%. Age, marital status, educational status, and occupation positively predict the occurrence of hypertension. The prevalence of hypertension and diabetes was found to be 30.9% and 17.7% respectively. The Community members above 18 years of age have increased odds of developing hypertension [18-44 years (aOR=1.99, CI=1.06-3.71, p<0.05), 45-64 years (aOR=6.12, CI=3.15-11.9, p<0.001) and >64 years (aOR=14.55, CI=7.17-29.53, p<0.001)]. Community members who were fishing/farming (aOR=0.45, CI=0.26-0.76, p<0.01)<em> </em>and being a student/apprentices <em>(aOR=0.11, CI=0.02-0.56)</em> were at reduced odds of developing diabetes. Participants who take snacks <em>(aOR=</em><em>0.64, CI=0.41-0.99, p<0.05)</em> during working hours had reduced odds of developing diabetes. The study concludes that<strong> c</strong>ommonly known risk factors such as dietary behaviour, alcohol intake, tobacco use, and physical activities were not associated with hypertension or diabetes in rural Ghana. Social demographic characteristics and poor health screening practices were the main predictors of hypertension and diabetes in rural areas. Urgent steps at improving health education and population-level screening would be pivotal in controlling hypertension and diabetes.</p>

Community attachment as a factor in the subjective well-being of older adults in urban and rural areas: A case study in Tokyo, Osaka, and Shikoku region in Japan
<p>This study explored the relationship between community participation/community attachment and subjective well-being (SWB) among Japanese older adults. The study was conducted in Japanese urban (Tokyo and Osaka) and rural (Shikoku region) areas. Structural equation modelling was performed to assess the potential relationship between community participation, community attachment and SWB. Results showed that community participation and community attachment were positively associated in both areas. However, community attachment had a significant impact on SWB only in rural areas with little impact on increasing SWB in urban areas. We conclude that the role of community attachment varies according to regions with different socioeconomic properties. These findings contribute to the design of detailed region-specific initiatives to improve SWB of older adults.</p>
Dataset to study "Understanding rural communities' narratives of land abandonment and its consequences on nature's contributions to people in a biocultural landscape in Spain"
<p>This dataset includes the raw data of a survey of 203 local residents in the region of Las Hurdes, Spain. The dataset sheet presents respondents' Linkages toward traditional land uses, Land abandonment perception and impacts, main agricultural practices, and socio-demographic characteristics (age, education level, place of residence, etc). The survey was carried out by face-to-face and the data compilation was done manually. The complete method is described in: Quintas‑Soriano, C., Torralba, M., García‑Martín, M., Plieninger, T., (2023): Narratives of land abandonment in a biocultural landscape of Spain. Regional Environmental Change, in press.</p> <p>In this upload you can find 2 files:</p> <p>1- Database: this file contains the dataset with all the valid responses to the survey. blank spaces mean that the question was left unanswered by the respondents.</p> <p>2- Document of the face-to-face survey with all the questions and panels used for the social sampling.</p>
