- Table: 89-637-X2008002Description:
A series of supporting data tables accompanies the Inuit analytical article from the 2006 Aboriginal Peoples Survey (APS). These tables provide data at the national level, for each of the four Inuit regions (Nunatsiavut, Nunavik, Nunavut and the Inuvialuit region), along with data for Inuit outside these regions for major themes covered in the analytical article. Data for the Inuit identity population aged 15 and over are provided for: Participation in harvesting activities; diagnosed with arthritis/rheumatism, high blood pressure, asthma, stomach problems or intestinal ulcers, heart problems, tuberculosis and diabetes; smoking status; self-rated health status and; reasons for not completing elementary or secondary school. For Inuit children aged 6 to 14, tables include: contact with a pediatrician, general practitioner or family physician in past 12 months; contact with another medical specialist and; food insecurity.
Release date: 2008-12-19 - Stats in brief: 89-637-X2008004Geography: CanadaDescription:
This is one of three fact sheets in the series using information from the 2006 Aboriginal Peoples Survey (APS) and 2006 Census. The purpose of this fact sheet is to provide information on the topics of access to health professionals, chronic conditions, smoking rates, dental care, barriers to school completion, food insecurity, harvesting country food and country food consumption and sharing. Results are presented for Inuit children aged six to 14 and Inuit aged 15 and over. Findings are for Inuit at the national level, for those in each of the four Inuit regions (Nunatsiavut, Nunavik, Nunavut and the Inuvialuit region) and in some cases, for those outside the Inuit regions.
Release date: 2008-12-19 - Articles and reports: 89-599-M2008005Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study uses data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) to examine the relationship between late childbearing (at or after age 35) among first-time mothers in Canada and three facets of development: physical health, behaviour and cognitive development. The following research questions were addressed: do the developmental characteristics of children born to older mothers differ from those of children born to younger mothers? And do other factors, such as demographic characteristics and parenting practices, account for differences in child development by maternal age at birth? For this analysis, first-born children were identified from among all interviewed children whose year of birth was between 1998 and 2005.
Release date: 2008-09-24 - 4. The feasibility of establishing correction factors to adjust self-reported estimates of obesity ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X200800310680Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study examines the feasibility of developing correction factors to adjust self-reported measures of body mass index to more closely approximate measured values. Data are from the 2005 Canadian Community Health Survey, in which respondents were asked to report their height and weight, and were subsequently measured.
Release date: 2008-09-17 - 5. Depression and risk of heart disease ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X200800310649Geography: CanadaDescription:
A population-based sample of 4,948 men and women aged 40 or older who did not have heart disease in 1994/1995 were followed to 2006/2007 to determine if depression was associatedwith increased risk of heart disease diagnosis or death.
Release date: 2008-07-16 - 6. Depression and risk of heart disease ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-618-M2008007Geography: CanadaDescription:
This analysis examines the relationship between depression and subsequent heart disease among Canadians aged 40 years or older. The article is based on data from the household component of the National Population Health Survey (NPHS). This longitudinal survey, conducted by Statistics Canada, follows the same group of people every two years since 1994/1995.
Release date: 2008-07-16 - Articles and reports: 11-522-X200600110444Geography: Province or territoryDescription:
General population health surveys often include small samples of smokers. Few longitudinal studies specific to smoking have been carried out. We discuss development of the Ontario Tobacco Survey (OTS) which combines a rolling longitudinal, and repeated cross-sectional components. The OTS began in July 2005 using random selection and data-collection by telephones. Every 6 months, new samples of smokers and non-smokers provide data on smoking behaviours and attitudes. Smokers enter a panel study and are followed for changes in smoking influences and behaviour. The design is proving to be cost effective in meeting sample requirements for multiple research objectives.
