Systematic review of area based regeneration initiatives in the UK
Little evidence of the impact of national urban regeneration on socio-economic or health outcomes.
Changes often no different from national trends.
However, some harms: Single Regeneration Budget 1996 - 1999;
deterioration in self reported health Urban programme and City Challenge;
worsening of unemployment Estate Action; increased housing costs Housing improvement in 1930s Scotland; rents
doubled, mortality rates increased (residents couldn’t afford adequate food)
Thompson et al, 2006

It is adequate to know that some intervention does good in general?
But: ‘Bike ed’ : negative association was strongest in
– Boys – Younger children– Children with parents in lower educational levels– Children lacking family members with bicycles
‘Sesame street’ benefited all children but increased the gap between fast and slow learners
Dental health promotion effective in middle class but not lower class kids
‘Sure Start’ may have adverse effects on the most vulnerable e.g. teenage mothers, workless families

Plausibility is an adequate basis for policy making?
But: Bicycle safety education will reduce bicycle accidents Lying babies on their fronts is best Supplementing diets with vitamin A will mimic good effects of
fruit and vegetables HRT will reduce CVD in postmenopausal women

Health Impact Assessment feedback loop
If HIA is to be useful, it needs robust information to feed into its predictions
Need to check how HIAs compare with what actually happened
Need to bring together the HIA and evaluation fields

HIV and Evaluation
HIA: ‘any combination of procedures or methods by which a proposed policy or program may be judged as to the effects it may have on the health of the population.’
WHO 1999
Evaluation: ‘examines the outturn of a policy, programme or project against what was expected.’
HM Treasury Green Book

Hypermarket Study
New Tesco hypermarket opened November 2001 in Springburn. Comparison area Shettleston
Both had: No large supermarket Depcat 7 (levels of deprivation) 50% smoking prevalence Declining rates of male life expectancy Low levels of fruit and vegetable consumption (one-third eating fruit
daily)

The Springburn Supermarket study
Before (2001) and 1 year after (2002)
• Postal survey (2001/2002)
• Qualitative interviews (10 focus groups)
• Systematic mapping of local retailers: type, location every 6 months

Hypermarket Study, change from baseline
Controlling for baseline diet, age, sex, employment and education:
No significant difference between areas in change in
fruit and/or vegetable consumption among either switchers or non switchers

Hypermarket Study, change from baseline
No significant changes in retail provision locally, although intervention area had
Greater decrease in shop vacancy rates An extension of food retail outlets A greater increase of service retail outlets
(one butcher and one greengrocer closed in control area, no closures in intervention area)

Hypermarket Study – retrospective HIA
Three classes of MPH students (45 students) Given details of the areas and the hypermarket development Given Merseyside HIA guidelines Asked to predict impacts on diet, social participation, employment
opportunities, social networks, traffic and local environmental problems

Hypermarket Study – retrospective HIA
Three classes of MPH students (45 students) Given details of the areas and the hypermarket development Given Merseyside HIA guidelines Asked to predict impacts on diet, social participation, employment
opportunities, social networks, traffic and local environmental problems Predicted
– positive impact on diet – negative impact on shops

Inequalities and HIA - conclusion
Inequalities in health and life chances are pervasive And are not always captured in aggregate data/outcomes Little is known about how best to reduce inequalities in health Health Inequalities Impact Assessment may have little data to guide
predictions Assumptions about likely impact may be wrong Need to link HIA and HIIA with systematic reviews and controlled
evaluations Closing the feedback loop – retrospective HIA
