suicide rate differences by sex age and urbanicity and related Regional Factors in korea
Journal of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, 2012Co-Authors: Kyuseok Cheong, Minhyeok Choi, Byungmann Cho, Taeho Yoon, Changhun Kim, Yumi Kim, Inkyung HwangAbstract:Objectives: Identify the characteristics related to the suicide rates in rural and urban areas of Korea and discover the Factors that influence the suicide rate of the rural and urban areas. Methods: Using the data on causes of death from 2006 to 2008, the suicide rates were calculated and compared after age-standardization based on gender, age group and urbanicity. And, in order to understand the Factors that influence suicide rate, total 10 local characteristics in four domains - public service, social integration, residential environment, and economic status - were selected for multiple regression analysis. Results: The suicide rates were higher in men than women, in rural areas than urban, and in older people than the younger. Generally, although there were variations according to age group and urbanicity, suicide rates were significantly related to residential environment and Regional economic status but not related to Regional welfare spending and social integration. In addition, the population over the age of 65 years, only Regional economic status has significantly influence on their suicide rates. Conclusions: The influence of characteristics of regions on suicide rate is various by age-group, gender, and urbanicity. Therefore, in order to lower suicide rate and reduce the gap between regions, various approaches must be adopted by taking into account the socioeconomic characteristics of the regions.

Regional Factors interact with educational and income tax levels to influence food intake in France
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2011Co-Authors: J Dallongeville, Karine Windels, Chantal Simon, Vanina Bongard, Aline Wagner, Jean-bernard Ruidavets, Dominique Arveiler, Philippe Amouyel, Luc DauchetAbstract:Background. The goal of the present study was to assess whether geographic Factors affect the relationship between socioeconomic indicators and adherence to the French National Nutritional Health Programme (PNNS) guidelines. Subjects/Methods. The MONA-LISA-NUT study (2005-2007) is a cross-sectional survey of a representative sample from northern, north-eastern and south-western France. Educational level and household income tax were recorded by trained interviewers. Food intake was assessed with a 3-day food diary in 3188 subjects aged from 35-64 y. Adherence to the PNNS guidelines was assessed with a validated score (the FSIPO). Multivariate analyses were adjusted for gender, age, marital status, BMI, energy intake and medically prescribed diets. Results. The FSIPO score was higher in south-western France than in the two other regions (p

Local and Regional Factors influence the structure of treehole metacommunities
BMC ecology, 2008Co-Authors: Christopher J. Paradise, Leslie Smith, Jarrod D Blue, John Q Burkhart, Justin Goldberg, Lauren Harshaw, Katherine D Hawkins, Benjamin Kegan, Tyler Krentz, Shawn VillalpandoAbstract:Abiotic and biotic Factors in a local habitat may strongly impact the community residing within, but spatially structured metacommunities are also influenced by Regional Factors such as immigration and colonization. We used three years of monthly treehole census data to evaluate the relative influence of local and Regional Factors on our study system. Every species responded to at least one of three local environmental Factors measured: water volume, leaf litter mass, and presence of a top predator. Several species were affected by water volume, and a non-exclusive group of species were influenced by leaf litter mass. Relative abundance of Aedes triseriatus was higher in treeholes with higher volumes of water, and relative abundances of three out of six other species were lower in treeholes with higher volumes of water. Leaf litter mass positively affected densities of Aedes triseriatus and relative abundance of several dipteran species. The density of the top predator, Toxorhynchites rutilus, affected the relative abundance of the two most common species, A. triseriatus and Culicoides guttipennis. Treeholes with T. rutilus had an average of two more species than treeholes without T. rutilus. We found little evidence of synchrony between pairs of treeholes, either spatially or temporally. There were high levels of spatial and temporal turnover, and spatial turnover increased with distance between patches. The strong effects of water volume, leaf litter mass, and presence of a top predator, along with the high temporal turnover strongly suggest that species presence and density are determined by local Factors and changes in those Factors over time. Both low water volume and high predator densities can eliminate populations in local patches, and those populations can recolonize patches when rain refills or predators exit treeholes. Population densities of the same species were not matched between pairs of treeholes, suggesting variation in local Factors and limited dispersal. Distance effects on spatial turnover also support limitations to dispersal in the metacommunity, and we conclude that the weight of evidence favors a strong influence of local Factors relative to Regional Factors.

Models of Regional Factors—Supply Chain Performance (Benefits)
Evaluation of Supply Chain Performance, 2019Co-Authors: Liliana Avelar-sosa, Jorge Luis García-alcaraz, Aidé Aracely Maldonado-macíasAbstract:This chapter proposes a series of models to associate Regional Factors with supply chain performance benefits. The relationships between the latent variables are considered as research hypothesis and are validated using data collected from the Mexican export-oriented manufacturing industry. The evaluation results indicate that Regional Factors are essential in supply chain Performance but are also a source of uncertainty for manufacturing industries. In other words, aspects such as infrastructure and government support are important for companies to operate, yet they cannot be controlled inside of the facilities and depend on external forces.

The Role of Regional Factors on Supply Chain Performance
Evaluation of Supply Chain Performance, 2019Co-Authors: Liliana Avelar-sosa, Jorge Luis García-alcaraz, Aidé Aracely Maldonado-macíasAbstract:This chapter explores the impact of Regional aspects on supply chain performance. Some of the aspects to be studied include Regional infrastructure, infrastructure and services costs, services, service quality, and the role of the government as regulator. First, we develop simple models associating two latent variables each: one Regional aspect and one supply chain performance benefit. Then, we propose more complex models to depict the interactions and effects among Regional aspects. Finally, an integrative model is introduced to associate all the Regional aspect variables with all the supply chain performance benefit variables.
