The influence of social and environmental determinants of health on hospitalizations for pediatric asthma.
This retrospective cohort used data from the Indiana Network for Patient Care state-wide health information exchange to determine the influence of social, environmental, and demographic factors on hospital admissions and readmissions for pediatric asthma. Participants were children aged 2-18 admitted to the hospital with a respiratory diagnostic code 2010-2021. Social and environmental determinants of health data were obtained from the Indiana Social Assets and Vulnerabilities Indicators using geocoding systems. A high social vulnerability index was associated with an increased rate of hospital admissions for pediatric asthma. No environmental determinants of health were significantly associated with hospitalization rates.

Reduced prevalence of childhood asthma after housing renovations in an underresourced community.
This study鈥檚 goal as to determine whether housing renovations affect the prevalence of asthma in an underresourced community. Between 2010 and 2012, the Fay Apartments (~800 units) in Cincinnati, Ohio, were renovated to "green building" standards and renamed the Villages at Roll Hill. Asthma prevalence among 7-year-olds was determined by accessing Ohio Medicaid data for the years 2013 to 2021. Average prevalence of asthma among 7-year-olds averaged 12.7% in the first 6 years after the renovations (2013-2018). But in postrenovation years 7-9 (2019-221), average prevalence of asthma had dropped to 5.9%.

Housing environments and asthma outcomes within population-based samples of adults and children in NYC.
This study assessed the relationship between housing type (i.e., home ownership, public housing, rental assistance, rent-controlled housing, and other rental housing) and asthma outcomes among New York City (NYC) adults and children (ages 1-13). The authors used the 2019 NYC Community Health Survey (CHS) and 2019 NYC KIDS survey to analyze associations between housing type and ever having been diagnosed with asthma (鈥渆ver asthma鈥) and experiencing an asthma attack within the past year. They also examined whether associations were modified by smoking status (among adults), smoking within the house (among children), and overweight/obesity. Among adults, living in public housing, compared to home ownership, was associated with higher odds of ever asthma and past-year asthma attack. Rental assistance housing living was also significantly associated with ever asthma. Public or rental assistance housing associations and ever asthma were marginally significant among children but were more pronounced among ever smokers than among never smokers.

Tobacco smoke exposure and socioeconomic factors are independent predictors of pulmonary decline in pediatric cystic fibrosis.
This longitudinal study evaluates the effects of tobacco smoke exposure and socioeconomic factors on pulmonary decline in pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF). Data from the CF Foundation Patient Registration was obtained for patients who were 6-18 years old at the end of 2016. Lung function measures (ppFEV(1)) for 10,895 individuals was calculated at each attained age. At age 6, lung function was 4.7% lower among smoke-exposed children than among unexposed with this deficit continuing through age 18. Smoke exposure and socioeconomic factors had independent, additive associations with lung function. Factors that declined ppFEV(1) include smoke exposure (2.4%), lower paternal education (4.9%), public insurance (0.3%), and increased 0.2% with each $10,000 annual household income.

Contribution of social factors to readmissions within 30 days after hospitalization for COPD exacerbation.
This study examined whether adding social factors improved the predictive ability for 30-day hospital readmissions for COPD. Social factors include educational level and marital status. Out of 905 hospitalizations identified in the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey from 2006 through 2012, 18.5% were readmitted within 30 days. The optimized model including social factors for prediction improved for early readmissions but not for late readmissions.

The effects of the environment on asthma disease activity.
This study discusses environmental factors that trigger or aggravate symptoms of asthma in children. Biological and physical factors include allergens, microbiome, endotoxin, genetics and pollution. Psychosocial environmental factors include stress, neighborhood safety, housing and discrimination. Control of these factors help to reduce prevalence and severity of asthma.

Social determinants of adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is low. Previous studies have focused on clinical predictors of PR completion. This study aimed to identify social determinants of adherence to PR. The findings showed that, relative to high adherence, low adherence is associated with limited functional capacity and current smoking, while moderate adherence is associated with socioeconomic disadvantage. The distinction highlights different pathways to suboptimal adherence and calls for tailored intervention approaches.

Trends in 30-day readmission rates after COPD hospitalization, 2006-2012.
This study investigated trends in 30-day readmission rates after chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-related hospitalization. Overall, the 30-day readmission rate for COPD-related hospitalization decreased modestly from 20.0 percent in 2006 to 19.2 percent in 2012. Similar to the overall population, the readmission rate over the 7-year period remained persistently high in most of AHRQ-defined priority populations.
