Are socially disadvantaged neighbourhoods deprived of health-related community resources?
BACKGROUND Recent work in a number of countries has identified growing geographical inequalities in health between deprived and non-deprived neighbourhoods.

متن کاملGenotyping of Giardia duodenalis among children and dogs in a closed socially deprived community from Italy.
Molecular characterization of Giardia duodenalis cysts from humans and animals living in well-defined contexts is useful to study the circulation of isolates and represents a tool to evaluate zoonotic infection risk. The presence of giardiasis in children living in a disadvantaged and socially deprived small Rom community, as well in dogs roaming freely in the same context was carried out by mi...

Then we ask the question whether this decreasing sanction scheme is subgame perfect (time consistent), i.e., does a rent-seeking government stick to this sanction scheme after the first crime has occurred. If the benefit...

We use a simulation model to explore how interactions b...
