Among other drugs, using ecstasy was also significantly associated with HSRSB in both genders (aOR: 3.97, 95% CI: 1.17, 13.42 and aOR: 5.32, 95% CI: 2.05, 13.82 for males and females). The combined impact of mental health conditions was substantially higher among females than males (PAR%: 46% and 27%, respectively). The findings may inform the targeting of health promotion programs for STI prevention towards those at higher risk due to methamphetamine use and mental health issues.]]> Thu 10 Aug 2023 13:24:37 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44868 Mon 24 Oct 2022 11:16:33 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37808 (EF). Rather than depicting the current lack of sustainability that comes from estimating a footprint based on uptake of carbon emissions (the method used in EF accounting), our proposed "Renewable Energy Equivalent Footprint" (REEF) instead depicts a hypothetical world in which the electricity and fuel demands are met entirely from renewable energy. The analysis shows that current human energy demands could theoretically be met by renewable energy and remain within the biocapacity of one planet. However, with current technology there is no margin to leave any biocapacity for nature, leading to the investigation of two additional scenarios: (1) radical electrification of the energy supply, assuming 75% of final energy demand can be met with electricity, and (2) adopting technology in which electricity is used to convert atmospheric gases into synthetic fuel. The REEF demonstrates that a sustainable and desirable future powered by renewable energy: (i) may be possible, depending on the worldwide adoption of consumption patterns typical of several key exemplar countries; (ii) is highly dependent on major future technological development, namely electrification and synthetic fuels; and (iii) is still likely to require appropriation of a substantial, albeit hopefully sustainable, fraction of the world's forest area.]]> Fri 30 Apr 2021 10:04:36 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39331 Fri 19 Apr 2024 11:23:25 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30138 Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) community and clinic screening data for Aboriginal people aged 15-34 years, 2006-2009, were used. Regression analyses assessed predictors of the first test occurring in the community screen, positivity and repeat testing. Results: A total of 2792 individuals had 9402 tests (median: four per person) over 4 years. Approximately half of the individuals (54%) were tested in the community and clinic approaches combined, 29% (n=806) in the community screen only and 18% (n=490) in the clinic only. Having the first test in a community screen was associated with being male and being aged 15-19 years. There was no difference between community and clinic approaches in CT or NG positivity at first test. More than half (55%) of individuals had a repeat test within 2-15 months and of these, 52% accessed different approaches at each test. The only independent predictor of repeat testing was being 15-19 years. Conclusions: STI screening is an important PHC activity and the findings highlight the need for further support for clinics to reach young people. The community screen approach was shown to be a useful complementary approach; however, cost and sustainability need to be considered.]]> Fri 06 Oct 2017 09:16:22 AEDT ]]>
