Evolution of research in health geographics through the International Journal of Health Geographics (2002–2015)

Abstract: Health geographics is a fast-developing research area. Subjects broached in scientific literature are most varied, ranging from vectorial diseases to access to healthcare, with a recent revival of themes such as the implication of health in the Smart City, or a predominantly individual-centered approach. Far beyond standard meta-analyses, the present study deliberately adopts the standpoint of questioning space in its foundations, through various authors of the International Journal of Health Geographics, a hi… Show more

“…This led the authors to propose various urban ecotypes, and to consider the residential, commercial, or social function of a construction, after taking into consideration transportation or ecological aspects like density of roads or vegetation. Despite the difficulty in comparing authors' self-definitions, the mix of residential and highly frequented areas, associated with multi-scale human mobility (e.g., road network density, ids: 14, 37), with vegetation in the surrounding areas generally show the strongest associations to dengue occurrences (ids: 10,14,19,28,35,37,51,57). Considered separately as individual proxies, urban functions are generally not significant (ids: 18, 35).…”

“…The authors considered a small administrative level to integrate data from institutional sources at fine scale (Figures 9 and 10). A co-occurrence network shows some similarities with the neighborhood level, highlighting the role of human density through residential area mapping (ids: 16,19), and the importance of mixed areas, characterized by coming and going of people with some hot spots or a context favorable to the persistence of Aedes: urban villages (id: 10), deprived areas with medium-high density (id: 38, 44, 63), residential areas with commercial and industrial areas (id: 23), or informal settlement areas (id: 23). With regard to infrastructure level, it is useful to consider waste management and the state of the sewage networks (ids: 15, 27, 65), as well as road structure and density (ids: 10).…”
