Breast cancer-specific survival among immigrants and non-immigrants invited to BreastScreen Norway

Journal of Migration and Health
Introduction: We have previously shown that immigrants have lower attendance in BreastScreen Norway than non-immigrants and that non-Western immigrants have lower incidence of breast cancer, but more advanced disease.

Going "beyond the mean" in analysing immigrant health disparities

Demographic Research, 2022
Background: On arrival, immigrants are on average healthier than Italian natives, but their health advantage tends to dissipate over time. This constitutes a relevant public health issue for the hosting societies, as it implies higher health care costs ...

Immigrant Workers

, 2022
Immigrant workers are foreign-born individuals employed in tourism and hospitality. The sector often relies heavily on immigrant workers, and new migrants frequently enter the labour market through employment in tourism and hospitality. Migrants remain overrepresented in some sectors and domains of organisational activity.

Modern and Ancient Genomes Reveal Neolithic Paternal Expansions of Millet and Rice Farmers and Demic Diffusion from China into Mainland Southeast Asia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study clarifies the genetic patterns of paternal lineages across East Asia and Mainland Southeast Asia. Han populations are relatively homogeneous, whereas southern ethnolinguistic minorities display regional structures. Shared Y‐chromosome lineages indicate Neolithic expansions and extensive north‐south gene flow, supporting demic diffusion ...

Factors associated with cyber-victimization among immigrants and non-immigrants in Canada: a cross-sectional nationally-representative study

BMC Public Health, 2020
Objectives There is a paucity of research on patterns of cyber-victimization in minority groups, including immigrants. This study aimed to identify individual, interpersonal and contextual characteristics associated with cyber-victimization among ...

Ethnosizing immigrants [PDF]

Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, 2006
"The ethnosizer, a new measure of the intensity of a person's ethnic identity, is proposed using information on language, culture, societal interaction, history of migration, and ethnic selfidentification. A two-dimensional version classifies immigrants into four states: integration, assimilation, separation and marginalization.

DOTA‐grafted Cationic Polymers Behaving as Powerful Macromolecular Resistance‐reversal Agents (MRRAs) Combating Against New Delhi Metallo‐β‐lactamase (NDM)‐producing Bacteria

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Two macromolecular resistance‐reversal agents (MRRAs)—linear (MRRAL) and nanostructured (MRRAN) polymers were fabricated by integrating DOTA motifs into tunable polycationic scaffolds. MRRAs exhibit superior antibacterial potency once combined with meropenem (MEM) through (i) bacterial membrane disruption via localized cationic charge and ...

Stabilizing Atomically Dispersed Au With Adjacent Pt for Spatially Precise Molecule Recognition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A strategy to stabilize atomically dispersed Au catalysts by introducing Pt atoms into CeO2 supports is presented. Pt incorporation prevents Au aggregation, enhances Au‐O orbital coupling, and enables precise recognition of multi‐functionalized molecules, improving catalytic performance and the structural stability of Au‐based catalysts in ...

Unequal weathering: How immigrants’ health advantage vanishes over the life-course

Journal of Migration and Health
The weathering hypothesis implies that there is an interaction between age and race or ethnicity that results in marginalized groups experiencing a more rapid decline in health than the dominant groups.
