This pilot study engaged 24 carers with the tool to identify perceived characteristics of streetscapes that influenced their perceptions of environmental safety for children’s independent mobility. Three methods were used to engage participants with the tool: purely online, one-on-one conversation on-site and organised group meetings. The observation of respondents’ behaviour during their participation and the quality and quantity of responses were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the tool. The findings reveal that PPGIS has the capacity to collect the perceived qualities of places, routes, and areas; the three forms of spatial data, required to understand mobility in urban settings. However, the contextual information of the maps is not sufficient for identifying street-scale affordances. Responding to the map-based questions is also a challenge for the general public. The paper makes recommendations for furthering the development of PPGIS for assessing healthy streetscapes.","PeriodicalId":72596,"journal":{"name":"Cities & health","volume":"41 1","pages":"480 - 491"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86455260","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}

Our team audited Street View images from 192 street segments in the Philadelphia Metropolitan Region. On each segment, we measured the number of images available through time, and for locations where imagery from more than one time point was available, we collected 8 neighborhood disorder indicators at 3 different times (up to 2009, up to 2014, and up to 2019). More than 70% of streets segments had at least one image. Neighborhood disorder increased between 2009 and 2019.

We aimed to evaluate the association between urban stress and symptoms of depression, fatigue, and sleep disruption in a cohort of 460 women in Mexico City. To assess urban stress, women were administered the Urban Annoyances (Nuisances Environnementales) scale. Six constructs were summarized to create an overall index. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Edinburgh Depression Scale; the Patient-Reported Outcomes Information System scales were used to assess sleep disruption and fatigue. Linear regression models were used to estimate the association with continuous symptoms comparing women with high urban stress to those with lower levels. Models were adjusted for socioeconomic status, education, age, social support, and previous depressive symptoms. High urban stress was associated with greater depressive symptoms (β: 1.77; 95%CI: 0.83, 2.71), fatigue (β: 2.47; 95%CI: 0.87, 4.07), and sleep disruption (β: 2.14; 95%CI: 0.54, 3.73). Urban stress plays an important role in women's psychological and physical health, highlighting the importance of including these measures in environmental health studies. Urban interventions, such as promoting alternative transport options, should additionally be addressed to improve health of urban populations.","PeriodicalId":72596,"journal":{"name":"Cities & health","volume":"7 5","pages":"830-838"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10578658/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41241674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, cities worldwide are building and investing in urban resilience. It is not known to what extent and how cities are considering mosquito-borne diseases in their resilience strategies. This research uses a multi-site case study methodology, focused on Resilient Cities Network member cities Chennai (India), Paynesville (Liberia) and Medellín (Colombia), to understand the intersection between mosquito-borne diseases and city resilience. Data collection involved in-depth interviews with resilience representatives of each city and document review to explore perceptions of mosquito-borne diseases, their prioritisation in resilience planning and what resilience activities are implemented and how. Analysis showed that while mosquito-borne diseases are not considered explicitly as a resilience challenge, many resilience activities implemented by cities have co-benefits for mosquito-borne disease control or could be enhanced to realise this potential. For Resilient Cities Network member cities looking to integrate mosquito-borne disease control into their resilience approach, we recommend increasing awareness of interlinkages between city resilience and mosquito-borne diseases, leveraging multi-sectoral collaborations with co-benefits for mosquito-borne disease control, and engaging communities in urban planning and mosquito-borne diseases control efforts.","PeriodicalId":72596,"journal":{"name":"Cities & health","volume":"21 1","pages":"348 - 362"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87107240","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}

Tower Hamlets sought to test whether the mechanisms provided by the planning system were achievable and measurable or whether policy changes were needed to make the implementation of HIA Policy more effective. In 2020, the HIA Policy was adopted in the Tower Hamlets Local Plan to systematically assess the health impact of new infrastructure development. This case study details how in 2018, a policy analysis was undertaken, building on an international literature review, considering evidence from health and development databases and relevant academic texts. Primary research was undertaken, incorporating a knowledge attitude and practice survey underpinned by grounded theory. Despite HIAs being widely encouraged within infrastructure development, there was limited published peer-reviewed literature demonstrating their effectiveness in this setting; however, insights emerged around capacity building, the development process, and community participation. The findings of the analysis initiated a capacity building programme, known as the ‘HIA Implementation Programme’, with recommendations proposed and subsequently accepted by decision makers across Public Health and Planning teams.","PeriodicalId":72596,"journal":{"name":"Cities & health","volume":"79 1","pages":"303 - 311"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88146718","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}

Increased oxygen consumption and heart rate are important markers to estimate intensity of physical activity. To bridge the gap between physiological theory and the application in urban design, a combined experiment including 26 participants walked on a plain treadmill and then steppingstone imitations at the same speed. Physiological data were collected and compared using a heart rate monitor and a breath-by-breath metabolic system and supplemented with a questionnaire about body reactions and likelihood to perform a similar exercise in a life situation. The average increase in heart rate due to steppingstones was 17.22%. Results further showed that the exercise was more effective for the 30–60-year-old age group. Questionnaire data found that 69% of participants picked ‘maybe’ or ‘definitely’ for using similar steppingstones on their way to work and 100% walking in a park. In conclusion, we estimate that steppingstones can significantly increase people’s metabolic and physiological parameters, and can help the wider population to achieve the recommended government and health guidelines of ‘moderate exercise’ of 150 min/week, improving population health. This new evidence can help designers to implement Active Urbanism strategies.","PeriodicalId":72596,"journal":{"name":"Cities & health","volume":"46 1","pages":"398 - 415"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91282044","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}
