Given the major disruptions to higher education, reflection on university responses to the COVID-19 pandemic may provide insights for future outbreaks.OBJECTIVEHere, we describe the epidemiology of COVID-19 on the Emory University campus during the 2020-2021 academic year and provide an evaluation of the performance of a university-led program with the purpose of describing the effectiveness of efforts to augment the public health authority's case investigation and contact tracing efforts during a public health emergency.DESIGNEvaluation of a case investigation and contact tracing program regarding operations, timeliness, and performance.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURESWe analyzed quality metrics to determine the proportion of cases and contacts interviewed and the time to completion of each step from case diagnosis to testing of contacts.RESULTSDuring the 2020-2021 academic year, 1267 COVID-19 cases among Emory students, faculty, and staff were confirmed by polymerase chain reaction, with 1132 reported close contacts. Among cases, the median test turnaround time was 1 day (interquartile range: 1, 2). Among both cases and close contacts, 98% were successfully interviewed. The team called a majority of cases on the same day as their test result was reported to the program (87%; n = 1052). Almost all (98%; n = 1247) cases completed isolation or were advised to isolate during the review period. Close to half (46%; n = 513) of contacts interviewed began quarantine before their interview. Among close contacts interviewed, 13% (n = 145) subsequently converted to an index case.CONCLUSIONSThe impact and performance of Emory's program may provide useful and actionable data for future university-led infectious disease outbreak response programs. The program structure, performance metrics, and information collected via interviews provide practical implications and an organized structure to guide other programs during future outbreaks.","PeriodicalId":520109,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Health Management & Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142262917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this research often ignores variation in upstream governmental investment in these SDOH categories.OBJECTIVETo examine the association of local governmental investments in SDOH with drug overdose mortality at the county level, controlling for demographic and socioeconomic characteristics.DESIGNLongitudinal analysis from 2017 to 2020.SETTINGUnited States counties.PARTICIPANTS3126 counties.MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURESThe primary study outcome was county overdose death rates per 100 000 population taken from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The main predictor of interest was the per capita average of local governmental expenditures in public health, social service, and education drawn from the U.S. Census of Governments, categorized into quartiles. Covariates included county-level socioeconomic and demographic characteristics as well as county-level SUD services from the AHRQ SDOH Database.RESULTSIn longitudinal multivariate linear regression models with state and year fixed effects, counties in the highest 3 quartiles of SDOH spending had significantly lower rates of overdose deaths compared with counties in the lowest quartile of SDOH spending; in particular, counties in quartile 2 had an average of 9.09 fewer overdose deaths per 100 000 population (95% CI: -12.58, -5.60), counties in quartile 3 had an average of 13.18 fewer deaths per 100 000 population (95% CI: -17.56; -8.80), and counties in quartile 4 had an average of 13.92 deaths per 100 000 population (95% CI: -19.16, -8.68).CONCLUSIONSOur findings demonstrate that higher levels of local governmental investments in SDOH were associated with significantly lower rates of overdose death in U.S. counties after controlling for socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. Going forward, research should focus on determining causality in this relationship, the mechanisms through which this relationship occurs, as well as assess the impact of local public health expenditures allocated toward SUD prevention and treatment specifically on substance use outcomes at the local level.","PeriodicalId":520109,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Health Management & Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142262758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Geographic determinants such as air pollutants have been identified as playing a role in asthma development and exacerbation. The purpose of this study was to determine geospatial predictors of pediatric asthma exacerbation events and to prioritize housing remediation resources.METHODSElectronic medical records were abstracted from a health plan in Southern California. The inclusion criteria that created a sample of 51 557 members were those aged 21 years and younger, who had at least 1 asthma-related encounter between January 2019 and December 2021. Diagnoses, age, number of clinic and emergency department visits, and home addresses were included. The air quality index from the closest monitoring station during the study period, residential distance from a primary roadway, and residential distance from manufacturing sites were included in the spatial analysis.RESULTSThe average number of asthma-related clinic visits was 2 across the sample. Individuals with more asthma-related clinic visits residing in public housing were more likely to live within 4 km of industrial manufacturing locations (P < .001), reside closer to a major roadway (P < .001), and experience a higher number of poor air quality days (P < .001). Modeling results show these factors were also significantly predictive of an increase of asthma-related health care encounters.CONCLUSIONSThe findings of this study were consistent with previous studies linking asthma and poor air quality and further highlighted some of the additive and potentially exponential challenges that public housing, major roadways, and manufacturing sites provide communities in their proximity. This research can guide environmental interventions, including the frequency of public housing inspections, community outreach, and the development of communication strategies, to reduce asthma-related experiences across neighborhoods.","PeriodicalId":520109,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Health Management & Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142214328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Across all major domains, a few concerned policy changes and a handful focused on improving systems or developing the built environment. Most strategies focused on service provision through events or the education of the public and professionals on health-related topics.CONCLUSIONSThe results of this study demonstrate that not all SDOHs are addressed equally by LHDs within their CHIPs. There is significant variation in how SDOHs are addressed along at 2 dimensions: first, in the likelihood that a CHIP addresses the domain and, second, in the mechanism by which each domain is addressed. Practically, the list of strategies we documented from the 80 CHIPs included in our sample may serve as the basis for strategies that other communities may wish to consider when addressing SDOH.","PeriodicalId":520109,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Health Management & Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142214330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
