    Description

    The NIHR is one of the main funders of public health research in the UK. Public health research falls within the remit of a range of NIHR Research Programmes, NIHR Centres of Excellence and Facilities, plus the NIHR Academy. NIHR awards from all NIHR Research Programmes and the NIHR Academy that were funded between January 2006 and the present extraction date are eligible for inclusion in this dataset. An agreed inclusion/exclusion criteria is used to categorise awards as public health awards (see below). Following inclusion in the dataset, public health awards are second level coded to one of the four Public Health Outcomes Framework domains. These domains are: (1) wider determinants (2) health improvement (3) health protection (4) healthcare and premature mortality.More information on the Public Health Outcomes Framework domains can be found here.This dataset is updated quarterly to include new NIHR awards categorised as public health awards. Please note that for those Public Health Research Programme projects showing an Award Budget of £0.00, the project is undertaken by an on-call team for example, PHIRST, Public Health Review Team, or Knowledge Mobilisation Team, as part of an ongoing programme of work.Inclusion criteriaThe NIHR Public Health Overview project team worked with colleagues across NIHR public health research to define the inclusion criteria for NIHR public health research awards. NIHR awards are categorised as public health awards if they are determined to be ‘investigations of interventions in, or studies of, populations that are anticipated to have an effect on health or on health inequity at a population level.’ This definition of public health is intentionally broad to capture the wide range of NIHR public health awards across prevention, health improvement, health protection, and healthcare services (both within and outside of NHS settings). This dataset does not reflect the NIHR’s total investment in public health research. The intention is to showcase a subset of the wider NIHR public health portfolio. This dataset includes NIHR awards categorised as public health awards from NIHR Research Programmes and the NIHR Academy. This dataset does not currently include public health awards or projects funded by any of the three NIHR Research Schools or any of the NIHR Centres of Excellence and Facilities. Therefore, awards from the NIHR Schools for Public Health, Primary Care and Social Care, NIHR Public Health Policy Research Unit and the NIHR Health Protection Research Units do not feature in this curated portfolio.DisclaimersUsers of this dataset should acknowledge the broad definition of public health that has been used to develop the inclusion criteria for this dataset. This caveat applies to all data within the dataset irrespective of the funding NIHR Research Programme or NIHR Academy award.Please note that this dataset is currently subject to a limited data quality review. We are working to improve our data collection methodologies. Please also note that some awards may also appear in other NIHR curated datasets. Further informationFurther information on the individual awards shown in the dataset can be found on the NIHR’s Funding & Awards website here. Further information on individual NIHR Research Programme’s decision making processes for funding health and social care research can be found here.Further information on NIHR’s investment in public health research can be found as follows: NIHR School for Public Health here.

    Description

    The Public Health Research Database (PHRD) is a linked asset which currently includes Census 2011 data; Mortality Data; Hospital Episode Statistics (HES); GP Extraction Service (GPES) Data for Pandemic Planning and Research data. Researchers may apply for these datasets individually or any combination of the current 4 datasets.

    The purpose of this dataset is to enable analysis of deaths involving COVID-19 by multiple factors such as ethnicity, religion, disability and known comorbidities as well as age, sex, socioeconomic and marital status at subnational levels. 2011 Census data for usual residents of England and Wales, who were not known to have died by 1 January 2020, linked to death registrations for deaths registered between 1 January 2020 and 8 March 2021 on NHS number. The data exclude individuals who entered the UK in the year before the Census took place (due to their high propensity to have left the UK prior to the study period), and those over 100 years of age at the time of the Census, even if their death was not linked. The dataset contains all individuals who died (any cause) during the study period, and a 5% simple random sample of those still alive at the end of the study period. For usual residents of England, the dataset also contains comorbidity flags derived from linked Hospital Episode Statistics data from April 2017 to December 2019 and GP Extraction Service Data from 2015-2019.

    Description

    Health indicators are quantifiable characteristics of a population which researchers use as supporting evidence for describing the health of a population. The researchers use a survey methodology to gather information about certain people, use statistics in an attempt to generalize the information collected to the entire population, then use the statistical analysis to make a statement about the health of a population. Health indicators are often used by governments to guide health care policy.

    Conducted by the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), the purpose of this survey of local health departments (LHDs) was to advance and support the development of a database for LHDs to describe and understand their structure, function, and capacities. A core set of questions was submitted to every LHD. In addition, some LHDs received one of two randomly assigned modules of supplemental questions. Data from the National Profile of Local Health Departments survey are used by: LHD staff members to compare their LHD or those within their states to others nationwide; Policymakers at the local, state, and federal levels to inform public health policy and support projects to improve local public health practice; Universities to educate future public health workforce members about LHDs; Researchers to address questions about public health practice; andNACCHO staff to develop programs and resources that meet the needs of LHDs and to advocate effectively for LHDs. Data included as part of this collection includes the Restricted-Use (Restricted-Use Level 2) data of the National Profile of Local Health Departments 2016 study. The dataset includes 1930 cases for 1116 variables.

    This dataset has been retired as of February 17, 2023. This dataset will be kept for historical purposes, but will no longer be updated. Similar data are available on the state’s open data portal: https://data.chhs.ca.gov/dataset/covid-19-time-series-metrics-by-county-and-state.

    Provides the proportion of COVID-19 Cases, Hospitalizations, and Deaths by Age, Gender, and Race/Ethnicity categories.

    Note: Between 1/1/2022 and 3/4/2022 hospitalization counts did not include in-patient hospitalizations with a COVID-19 positive test when the patient was in the hospital for a reason other than COVID-19. This included in-patient stays due to labor/delivery, trauma, or emergency surgery. Hospitalization reporting was modified to represent the disease severity of the Omicron variant accurately. As of 3/5/2022, we have resumed publishing the CDPH daily hospitalized patient census, which includes all in-patient hospitalizations with a COVID-19 positive test.

    Description

    Please note: This is a Synthetic data file, also known as a Dummy file - it is not real data. This synthetic file should not be used for purposes other than to develop an test computer programs that are to be submitted by remote access. Each record in the synthetic file matches the format and content parameters of the real Statistics Canada Master File with which it is associated, but the data themselves have been 'made up'. They do NOT represent responses from real individuals and should NOT be used for actual analysis. These data are provided solely for the purpose of testing statistical package 'code' (e.g. SPSS syntax, SAS programs, etc.) in preperation for analysis using the associated Master File in a Research Data Centre, by Remote Job Submission, or by some other means of secure access. If statistical analysis 'code' works with the synthetic data, researchers can have some confidence that the same code will run successfully against the Master File data in the Resource Data Centres. In the fall of 1991, the National Health Information Council recommended that an ongoing national survey of population health be conducted. This recommendation was based on consideration of the economic and fiscal pressures on the health care systems and the requirement for information with which to improve the health status of the population in Canada. Commencing in April 1992, Statistics Canada received funding for development of a National Population Health Survey (NPHS). The NPHS collects information related to the health of the Canadian population and related socio-demographic information to: aid in the development of public policy by providing measures of the level, trend and distribution of the health status of the population, provide data for analytic studies that will assist in understanding the determinants of health, and collect data on the economic, social, demographic, occupational and environmental correlates of health. In addition the NPHS seeks to increase the understanding of the relationship between health status and health care utilization, including alternative as well as traditional services, and also to allow the possibility of linking survey data to routinely collected administrative data such as vital statistics, environmental measures, community variables, and health services utilization. The NPHS collects information related to the health of the Canadian population and related socio-demographic information. It is composed of three components: the Households, the Health Institutions, and the North components. The Household component started in 1994/1995 and is conducted every two years. The first cycle of the NPHS is both longitudinal and cross-sectional. The NPHS longitudinal sample includes 17,276 persons from all ages in 1994/1995 and these same persons will be interviewed every two years. Health Canada, Public Health Agency of Canada and provincial ministries of health use NPHS longitudinal data to plan, implement and evaluate programs and health policies to improve health and the efficiency of health services. Non-profit health organizations and researchers in the academic fields use the information to move research ahead and to improve health.

Description

The NIHR is one of the main funders of public health research in the UK. Public health research falls within the remit of a range of NIHR Research Programmes, NIHR Centres of Excellence and Facilities, plus the NIHR Academy. NIHR awards from all NIHR Research Programmes and the NIHR Academy that were funded between January 2006 and the present extraction date are eligible for inclusion in this dataset. An agreed inclusion/exclusion criteria is used to categorise awards as public health awards (see below). Following inclusion in the dataset, public health awards are second level coded to one of the four Public Health Outcomes Framework domains. These domains are: (1) wider determinants (2) health improvement (3) health protection (4) healthcare and premature mortality.More information on the Public Health Outcomes Framework domains can be found here.This dataset is updated quarterly to include new NIHR awards categorised as public health awards. Please note that for those Public Health Research Programme projects showing an Award Budget of £0.00, the project is undertaken by an on-call team for example, PHIRST, Public Health Review Team, or Knowledge Mobilisation Team, as part of an ongoing programme of work.Inclusion criteriaThe NIHR Public Health Overview project team worked with colleagues across NIHR public health research to define the inclusion criteria for NIHR public health research awards. NIHR awards are categorised as public health awards if they are determined to be ‘investigations of interventions in, or studies of, populations that are anticipated to have an effect on health or on health inequity at a population level.’ This definition of public health is intentionally broad to capture the wide range of NIHR public health awards across prevention, health improvement, health protection, and healthcare services (both within and outside of NHS settings). This dataset does not reflect the NIHR’s total investment in public health research. The intention is to showcase a subset of the wider NIHR public health portfolio. This dataset includes NIHR awards categorised as public health awards from NIHR Research Programmes and the NIHR Academy. This dataset does not currently include public health awards or projects funded by any of the three NIHR Research Schools or any of the NIHR Centres of Excellence and Facilities. Therefore, awards from the NIHR Schools for Public Health, Primary Care and Social Care, NIHR Public Health Policy Research Unit and the NIHR Health Protection Research Units do not feature in this curated portfolio.DisclaimersUsers of this dataset should acknowledge the broad definition of public health that has been used to develop the inclusion criteria for this dataset. This caveat applies to all data within the dataset irrespective of the funding NIHR Research Programme or NIHR Academy award.Please note that this dataset is currently subject to a limited data quality review. We are working to improve our data collection methodologies. Please also note that some awards may also appear in other NIHR curated datasets. Further informationFurther information on the individual awards shown in the dataset can be found on the NIHR’s Funding & Awards website here. Further information on individual NIHR Research Programme’s decision making processes for funding health and social care research can be found here.Further information on NIHR’s investment in public health research can be found as follows: NIHR School for Public Health here. NIHR Public Health Policy Research Unit here. NIHR Health Protection Research Units here. NIHR Public Health Research Programme Health Determinants Research Collaborations (HDRC) here.
