SCANDINAVIAN JOURNAL OF PUBLIC HEALTH

英文简介

Public Health as we enter the third millennium, is facing challenges of new and re-emerging diseases. This health transition includes both changes in demographic patterns and the responses of health services to changing patterns of disease. However, while the ongoing transition allows for the chronic diseases of "welfare" and ageing it certainly also results from the "export" of well-known risk factors. Prevention often lies in the hands of public health policy and evidence-based implementation rather than in the search for new risk factors. Equity in health is on the public health agenda of most countries and agencies today. Inequity means unfairness - but nothing is as unfair as poverty, nor any epidemiological risk factor as strong. In bringing the chronic and pandemic nature of poverty and health needs to the attention of the world's conscience, a public health journal may be one lever. We will not avoid disclosing these value premises. They create a future challenge for public health researchers. Our ambition is to make this journal a forum for local, national as well as global health issues and we would like to recognise the challenge in bringing theory and methods nearer to public health efforts. We will certainly try to reflect the healthy multidisciplinarity that has become characteristic of public health globally in recent years. Epidemiologists, health economists and sociologists may thus contribute to conceptual and methodological development of the changing public health in terms of its efficacy, cost-effectiveness and social and ethical implications. Since January 2000 SJPH is under a new editorial management. We welcome contributions from North to South, on Nordic as well as International Public Health Developments, desk or field based studies, quantitative as well as qualitative. Our ambition is unequivocal - to foster and disseminate valid results from public health endeavours and, to the best of our ability, influence the current health research disequilibrium - that too little research effort is addressed to the bulk of health problems.

中文简介

在我们进入第三个千年之际，公共卫生正面临新出现和重新出现的疾病的挑战。这种卫生转变包括人口结构的变化和卫生服务对不断变化的疾病模式的反应。然而，尽管正在进行的过渡考虑到“福利”和老龄化的慢性病，但它肯定也是众所周知的危险因素“输出”的结果。预防往往取决于公共卫生政策和基于证据的实施，而不是寻找新的危险因素。卫生公平是当今大多数国家和机构的公共卫生议程。不公平意味着不公平——但没有什么比贫穷更不公平，也没有任何流行病学风险因素比贫穷更强烈。在将贫穷和卫生需求的长期性和流行性引起世界良知的注意方面，一份公共卫生杂志可能是一个杠杆。我们不会避免披露这些价值前提。它们为公共卫生研究人员带来了未来的挑战。我们的目标是使这本杂志成为一个地方、国家以及全球卫生问题的论坛，我们希望认识到在使理论和方法更接近公共卫生努力方面所面临的挑战。我们一定会努力反映健康的多学科性，这已成为近年来全球公共卫生的特点。因此，流行病学家、卫生经济学家和社会学家可在公共卫生的效力、成本效益以及社会和伦理影响方面，对不断变化的公共卫生的概念和方法发展作出贡献。自2000年1月以来，SJPH处于新的编辑管理之下。我们欢迎北欧和南欧对北欧以及国际公共卫生发展、基于课桌或实地的定量和定性研究的贡献。我们的雄心是明确的，即培育和传播公共卫生努力的有效成果，并尽我们最大的能力影响当前卫生研究的不平衡，即对大多数卫生问题的研究努力太少。
