The impact on health urban environments
Abstract
The impact on healt of urban environments reviews the range and variety of environmental hazards present in urban areas including biological pathogens, chemical pollutants, physical hazards and psychosocial stressors and their impact on human health. It also discusses how and why it is low-income groups (and within such groups women and children) who generally bear most of the health burden.

“Women are more vulnerable than men to many of the environmental hazards associated with poor housing and living conditions, as they take the sole responsibility for child-rearing and household management (Moser & Peake, 1987; Lee-Smith & Trujillo, 1992; Satterthwaite, 1993 ).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
