  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300300001
    Description: As Canada continues to experience an opioid crisis, it is important to understand the intersection between the demographic, socioeconomic and service use characteristics of those experiencing opioid overdoses to better inform prevention and treatment programs. This study aims to identify distinct groups of individuals with unique sets of characteristics and experiences among those who had an opioid overdose in British Columbia between 2014 and 2016.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200900002
    Description:

    National health surveys and vital statistics registries are the cornerstones of surveillance, monitoring and policy development in most developed countries. This cohort profile describes the linkage of the Canadian Community Health Survey - Nutrition (2004) to the Canadian Vital Statistics - Death Database (2011). Further, the authors demonstrate how these data can be used in terms of potential analysis strategies, and discuss their strengths and limitations-considerations that could apply to any national nutrition survey worldwide.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200600001
    Description:

    Estimates of polypharmacy (the concurrent use of five-or-more medications) have primarily been derived from prescription claims. Less is known about the use of non-prescription medications (alone or in combination with prescription medications) across the frailty spectrum or by sex. This study estimates the prevalence of polypharmacy (total, prescription, non-prescription, and concurrent prescription/non-prescription) overall, and by frailty, sex, and broad age groups.

  • Articles and reports: 11-522-X202100100017
    Description: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic required the Government of Canada to provide relevant and timely information to support decision-making around a host of issues, including personal protective equipment (PPE) procurement and deployment. Our team built a compartmental epidemiological model from an existing code base to project PPE demand under a range of epidemiological scenarios. This model was further enhanced using data science techniques, which allowed for the rapid development and dissemination of model results to inform policy decisions.

    Description:

    This paper's objectives are to examine the feasibility of pooling linked population health surveys from three countries, facilitate the examination of health behaviours, and present useful information to assist in the planning of international population health surveillance and research studies.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X201900200001
    Description:

    Using data from the first four cycles of the Canadian Health Measures Survey, this study examined the major risk factors for hypertensive status among Canadians aged 20 to 79 years, and employed a composite risk score to predict hypertension in women and men across a wide range of ages.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X201800654970
    Description:

    Using data from the first four cycles of the Canadian Health Measures Survey (CHMS), this study describes the prevalence of hypertension control among women and men aged 60 to 79 taking antihypertensive medication. It also examines factors that may explain some of the sex differences in hypertension control.

    Description:

    POHEM-BMI is a microsimulation tool that includes a model of adult body mass index (BMI) and a model of childhood BMI history. This overview describes the development of BMI prediction models for adults and of childhood BMI history, and compares projected BMI estimates with those from nationally representative survey data to establish validity.

    Description:

    This study analyzes results from the survey on Barriers to Care for People with Chronic Health Conditions to determine if spending of 5% or more of household income out-of-pocket on drugs and pharmaceutical products was associated with cost-related non-adherence.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X201600114305
    Description:

    With data from the 2007 to 2011 Canadian Health Measures Survey, this study describes the CVD risk profile of Canadians aged 20 to 79, compares current treatment patterns with guideline recommendations, and examines the population health impact of statin treatment.
