Participants over 18 years of age were recruited from sixty-three sites. Pain was assessed through two variables: overall pain and musculoskeletal pain. Mental health conditions, including anxiety, sleep disorders, depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were evaluated. Logistic regression models were used to explore associations, controlling for social determinants of health (SDHs).Results: Our findings revealed significant associations between mental health status and pain among the 1,188 included participants. Sleep disorder was associated to higher odds of musculoskeletal pain (aOR = 2.53, 95% CI [1.20-5.33], p = 0.014). Stratified results indicated that among women, depression was associated to higher odds of pain (aOR = 4.85, 95% CI [1.53-13.36], p = 0.007).Conclusion: This large study confirms the connection between mental health status and pain among UMs, providing valuable evidence for clinicians to address mental health issues in this population.","PeriodicalId":14322,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Health","volume":"69 ","pages":"1607254"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11742938/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143005210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spatial statistics such as Moran's I index, LISA analysis, and simultaneous autoregressive conditional (SAC) regression models were used.Results: The Moran's I index for different years was as follows: 2020: 0.3 (p = 0.0001), 2021: 0.27 (p = 0.0001), and 2022: 0.26 (p = 0.0001). In 2020, the significant variables were low educational achievement, barriers to early childhood care, child labor, school non-attendance, informal employment, lack of health insurance, inadequate floor material, and critical overcrowding. In 2021, the significant variables were low educational achievement, critical overcrowding, inadequate excreta disposal, and lack of access to water sources. In 2022, the significant variables were school lag and inadequate excreta disposal.Conclusion: This study revealed that in Colombia, a series of socioeconomic and health factors are interconnected and contribute to COVID-19 mortality. These changes may reflect various socioeconomic, political, and environmental dynamics that shifted during the pandemic years.","PeriodicalId":14322,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Health","volume":"69 ","pages":"1607820"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11742940/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143005221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We also examined the disease burden using disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and summary exposure values (SEV) rates.Results: Our findings indicate profound disparities, with over 60% of respondents in Egypt, Nigeria, and India reporting they have never undergone blood tests. Individuals with existing medical conditions are significantly more likely to experience delays in blood work.Conclusion: There is a pronounced gap in blood work accessibility, particularly in countries with high disease burdens. Findings suggest an urgent need for interventions to improve routine blood test access for high-risk populations to reduce the underdiagnosis of significant medical conditions. Prioritizing timely and accessible blood testing can serve as a step towards mitigating healthcare disparities.","PeriodicalId":14322,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Health","volume":"69 ","pages":"1607667"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11742933/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143005141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
