A sociocultural factor is 'early life experiences' - describe how this factor might link to differences in health status

Maternal tobacco, alcohol and drug use, and maternal nutrition and exposure to certain chemicals, bacteria and viruses during pregnancy - might impact birth weight causing weak immune system and higher rates of U5M, infant mortality, and increase rates of CVD and type 2 diabetes when older.

300

Other than alcohol being energy dense, how does increased consumption of alcohol contribute to BOD

Alcohol is filtered through the liver and over time can contribute to liver disease which increases YLD due to liver disease, therefore contributing to overall burden of disease

Sociocultural factor - low SES, higher rates of employment, social exclusion, higher rates of food insecurity, early life experiences and lack of access to health care.

Limitations - not every condition can be prevented. Does not promote the development of technology and medical knowledge. Health promotion messages can be ignored.

400

What are the golden rules associated with linking to Burden of Disease

- Must link to a disease and then link to either YLL, YLD or DALY

- Finish with 'therefore contributing to overall burden of disease'

500

A biological factor is 'blood cholesterol levels - explain how this factor could link to a difference in health status between those living outside of Australia's major cities compared to those living in Australia's major cities.

Those living outside of Australia's major cities are more likely to have higher blood cholesterol compared to those living in Australia's major cities.

Cholesterol is a type of fat required for human functioning, too much of one type of cholesterol 'low density lipoprotein' can lead to atherosclerosis. This can lead to interrupted blood flow which can increase risk of heart attack therefore lowering life expectancy of those living outside of Australia's major cities compared to in Australia's major cities.

500

Under-consuming vegetables can contribute to variations in health status.

Discuss two ways in which this may occur.

Remember no double dipping

Vegetables are high in nutrients such as Vit C that promote immune system function and reduce risk of conditions such as....(disease)

Vegetables are high in fibre and low in energy which decreases the risk of high BMI...link to disease

Vegetables contain antioxidants which decrease the impact of free radicals. This decreases the risk of cancer and CVD
