Measuring and Analysing Socioeconomic Inequalities in Health
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Glasgow
Department Name: UNLISTED
Abstract
The health of individuals varies according to socioeconomic characteristics reflecting, at least in part, different exposures to factors that influence health. Since populations comprise groups of individuals, and these groups tend not to be random, e.g. groups defined by geography or on the basis of occupation, there are differences between the health of different populations. Understanding such health inequalities plays an important part in improving the health of the population.
Health inequalities remain constant or are increasing and it is unclear how to reduce them. We are improving methods to analyse routinely collected health data and surveys and using new linkages of health to social data, aiming to improve our understanding of inequalities in health and improve intervention strategies. The programme is organised into three themes: Health inequalities and linked data analysis; Natural experiments from observational data; and Enhancing cohort, survey and routine data sources. Our focus on existing data sources represents a cost-effective means of working, capitalising on substantial investment in surveys and cohorts as well as ‘big data’. We benefit from our location in Scotland with its outstanding systems of linked routine health data, and our research team is recognised internationally for expertise in the analysis of these data and for methodological rigour and innovation.

Technical Summary
Aims and Objectives
The aim of this programme is to improve methodology for the measurement and analysis of health and inequalities in health using observational data with particular emphasis on improving our understanding of causes and informing strategies for intervention. Our objectives are:
1. To improve population health outcomes through conduct and translation of research based on the evaluation of policy or large-scale intervention.
2. To maximise the use of existing routine, linked and population-sampled data sources and, in so doing, enhance the return on the investment made in these resources.
3. To inform intervention strategy through research enhancing our understanding of health, inequalities in health and the determinants of health.
4. To build capacity in the measurement and analysis of inequalities in health using observational data.
Research plan and methodology
The purpose of this programme is to develop, adapt and apply appropriate statistical methods and novel study designs for the analysis of health inequalities, taking advantage of the linkage of new datasets and improved analytical capability. The joint focus on methodology and application, and proposed collaborations internally, nationally and internationally, ensure we are grounded in real-world applications assessing inequalities or informing the reduction of inequalities. Much of our work uses linked data from local, national and international longitudinal studies and surveys.
Our proposals include the use of novel linkages such as the linkage of education and unemployment data to population health data. We are in an excellent position to take advantage of the linkage of health and social data for three main reasons: we benefit from our location in Scotland with a long history of high quality routinely collected and linked health data and have experience in analysing the same going back more than 25 years; we have expertise in the analysis of linked health and social datasets from other countries, particularly Finland, Sweden and Norway, going back over 10 years; and we have considerable experience working with other datasets that link individual social data to routine data systems including the Scottish Health Survey, Scottish Birth Records and the Scottish Longitudinal Study.
The work of this programme is organised around three themes:
As more data sources come on line, in part through initiatives such as the Farr Institute for Health Informatics Research and the Administrative Data Research Centres, our first theme ‘Health inequalities and linked data analysis’ is exploring their potential to improve our understanding of the patterning of health and to identify points for intervention.
Our second theme, ‘Natural experiments from observational data’, is working on improving the extent to which we can be confident that associations based on observational data are causal which will in turn lead to an improved understanding of how we can intervene to improve health and reduce inequalities.
The third theme, ‘Enhancing cohort, survey and routine data sources’, is combining data from cross-sectional and longitudinal sources, largely by the innovative use of multiple imputation, to increase our power for analysis leading to improvements in our understanding of health and its determinants.

| Policy Influence Type | Participation in a guidance/advisory committee |
| Impact | Provided a briefing to Chris Whitty (CMO) and Patrick Vallance (Chief Scientific Advisor) which demonstrated ethnic inequalities in COVID-19 outcomes and highlighted the important role of social determinants in contributing to these. Following this, attended SAGE and provided scientific advice on the knowledge available about ethnic inequalities in COVID-19. Advice informed research funding, including leading to a call for UKRI research and I advised on its establishment. Following this initial input, a subgroup of SAGE on ethnicity and COVID-19 was established which I am a member of (meeting fortnightly). This has provided evidence about the drivers of ethnic inequalities in COVID-19 (led by me and including our published research) and providing recommendations to mitigate these inequalities e.g. improvements to public health messaging, housing-based interventions and adapting the test, trace and isolate system. This work is expected to increase survival, improve quality of life, help mitigate the adverse social and economic impacts of COVID-19 and reduce health inequalities. |

| Description | Scottish Government Expert Reference Group on ethnicity and COVID-19 (VK) |
| Geographic Reach | Local/Municipal/Regional |
| Policy Influence Type | Participation in a guidance/advisory committee |
| Impact | Co-chaired the Expert Reference Group (ERG) on ethnicity and COVID-19 for Scottish Government which has provided independent advice and challenge about how to address ethnic inequalities within the pandemic and over the longer term. The ERG has provided two sets of recommendations so far which have been incorporated in the Scottish Government's Programme for Government. One set of recommendations was around improving data for the purposes of monitoring health inequalities and its determinants. This has led to immediate actions (e.g. the issuing of a Ministerial circular to Chief Executives of health boards on data collection) to more longer term actions e.g. modifying Scotland's health data systems. Similarly, there have been recommendations to address ethnic inequalities in COVID-19 outcomes (e.g. improving delivery of Test & Protect) and underlying structural drivers (e.g. inclusion of ethnicity within the school curricula). These recommendations (which have been informed by our own evidence, as well as the broader developing evidence base) are expected to reduce the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection, improve public health and clinical service delivery and reduce societal inequalities. |

| Form Of Engagement Activity | A formal working group, expert panel or dialogue |

| Geographic Reach | Local |
| Primary Audience | Professional Practitioners |
| Results and Impact | 8 paediatric dietitians based in NHS Fife, met for a guided discussion on health inequalities within their workplace. The discussion focused on the dietitian's understanding and perspectives on health inequalities. The discussion was lead by Catherine Friel. The topics discussed were what dietitians understood health inequalities to be, how they recognized disparities or disadvantage within their practice, their understanding of how health inequalities impacts on th effectiveness of their clinical practice and clinical outcomes, what causes inequalities, and if there was anything they could do to address inequalities. We identified that there was a good basic understanding of what health inequalities were and the causes. There were difficulties in identifying disadvantaged groups, with exception of extreme examples i.e. if there were welfare concerns. It was also identified that the effectiveness of outcomes and differential outcomes depending on socioeconomic status was generally unknown due to a lack of data. This was consistent with the evidence in the literature where some researchers raise a concern about the lack of data on the effectiveness of intervention by social class. It raised the additional issue of how to dietitians recognise disadvantaged groups, and the literature on this will be explored further within my PhD. |

Abstract: This session will help evaluators recognise situations in which regression discontinuity designs (RDD) may be used to identify the effects of programmes and policies. We will examine why RDD may be the next best thing to a randomised trial, the underlying assumptions and data requirements, and the strengths and limitations of this approach. We will also look at examples of how this method has been implemented in public health, education, and social policy. |

It was played with 18 P7 pupils, in two batches of nine. The children were visibility engaged and enjoyed playing. Evaluation sheets showed that 94% found the game quite or very exicting and two thirds would recommend playing to their friends. It was sufficiently challenging and all children felt that the game was either about the right length or that they would like to have played for longer. 78% felt they understood more about data linkage after playing the game, and 78% believed that data linkage could be a good thing. A follow up email from the teacher confirmed that the children had enjoyed the session and learning about health research. Qualitative assessment by RD, LG and AP has been used to refine the game for future use. |
