ASSOCIATION OF RESIDENTIAL AIR POLLUTION, NOISE, AND NEIGHBOURHOOD GREEN SPACE WITH INITIAL STROKE SEVERITY
Background: Few studies have evaluated the influence of the residential environment on stroke severity. Objectives: We assessed the association of residential ambient fine particulate matter air pollution (PM2.5), noise, and surrounding greenspace with initial stroke severity. Methods: We obtained data on patients hospitalized with acute ischemic stroke from a hospital-based prospective stroke register (2005-2014) in Barcelona. Assessment of spatiotemporal exposure to PM2.5 was based on a land use regression model developed in the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects. Residential surrounding greenspace was estimated as the average of satellite-based Normalized Difference Veget...

The Peace We Can't Reach
Propelled by George Floyd’s murder in her hometown of Minneapolis, Meg Gorzycki addresses the question of why peace is difficult to cultivate and sustain, and finds that America has always had a love-hate relationship with peace. The Peace We Can’t Reach posits that peace is more than the absence of war and aggression, and in its most profound sense is shalom, the commitment to live for the well-being of all so that compassion and justice might prevail. Exploring shalom from the perspective of war, police brutality, mass shootings, and economic injustice, this book offers evidence that neither democracy nor Christianity as Americans have known them are capable of achieving peace. It asserts that the keys to peace are personal and social narratives that give people a sense of identity and their highest purpose, and concludes that gaining control over these narratives is vital to shalom.
