Interplay of physical activity, self-rated health, and life satisfaction among large-bodied adolescents in Europe and North America: analysis using clustered binary mixed effects logit modelling

Abstract Background There is a dearth of studies focused on the impact of self-rated health on life satisfaction among large-bodied adolescents, as well as the moderating role of physical activity in this relationship. Large-bodied adolesce...

On the Biopolitics of Suicide

This essay critically examines the biopoliticization of suicide, challenging its framing as a public health issue which obscures its cultural and philosophical significance. Drawing from Michel Foucault’s theories of biopower, this essay ar...

Removal of Microcystin-LR by a Novel Native Effective Bacterial Community Designated as YFMCD4 Isolated from Lake Taihu

Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is the most toxic and frequently detected monocyclic heptapeptide hepatotoxin produced by cyanobacteria, which poses a great threat to the natural ecosystem and public health. It is very important to seek environment-...

Prevalence and Determinants of Hypertension in Non-pregnant Women of Punjab

Background: Women’s hypertension (HTN) is often underestimated and goes untreated due to the perception that women have a lesser risk of cardiovascular disease compared to males. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the preva...

Urban Sprawl and Public Health
