13 Slum-specific factors that contribute to adverse health outcomes Using UN definition Inadequate access to sanitation and other infrastructure Increased rat density Leptospirosis, typhus, Open sewers Hookworm, leptospirosis, diarrhea, cholera, dengue, malaria, hepatitis, growth retardation Suboptimal schools Poor nutrition (under-nutrition, obesity), poor health education Inappropriate/inadequate health services Poor vaccine coverage, maternal health complications, under utilization of health services, rheumatic heart disease, suicide, chronic diseases (hypertension, diabetes), drug-resistant TB Lack of residential infrastructure (street lighting, public bathrooms) Violence to women; intentional injuries
14 Slum-specific factors that contribute to adverse health outcomes Using UN definition Insecure residential status Informal tenure and lack of title deed Lack of representation Exclusion from health care services; decisions important for the community that affect health Eviction poor access to health care services, schooling, work; traffic accidents Toxic chemical exposure poisoning, respiratory diseases, cancer Low service utilization chronic diseases, unwanted pregnancy, STIs, HIV infection, substance abuse-related illnesses

16 Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) RHD: immunologically-mediated chronic complication of Group A (GAS) streptococcal (Streptococcus pyogenes) pharyngitis WHO: prevalence peaks at yrs Brazil: RHD with congestive heart failure and mitral valve regurgitation: mean age= 12 yrs (Camara et al, 2002) mean age= 9 yrs (Camara et al, 2004)

24 Slum health research vs advocacy Where do we go from here??? Cannot wait for alleviation of poverty, disparity, inequality, etc Cannot wait for social capital development, technology transfer, UN Sustainable Development goals, etc Need to act now to: Formally recognize the existence of this population. Work with residents of slums to assess burden of disease in this population. Develop new metrics Precision public health research to measure biological, sociological and environmental determinants of disease Provide data for national governments. Identify and implement novel interventions, specifically designed for slums. Get those in position of influence to set the priority straight.
