abstract: 'BackgroundFirearm violence is a public health problem that disparately
|
|
|
|
impacts areas of economic and social deprivation. Despite a growing
|
|
|
|
literature on neighborhood characteristics and injury, few studies have
|
|
|
|
examined the association between neighborhood disadvantage and fatal and
|
|
|
|
nonfatal firearm assault using data on injury location. We conducted an
|
|
|
|
ecological Bayesian spatial analysis examining neighborhood disadvantage
|
|
|
|
as a social determinant of firearm injury in Seattle,
|
|
|
|
Washington.MethodsNeighborhood disadvantage was measured using the
|
|
|
|
National Neighborhood Data Archive disadvantage index. The index
|
|
|
|
includes proportion of female-headed households with children,
|
|
|
|
proportion of households with public assistance income, proportion of
|
|
|
|
people with income below poverty in the past 12months, and proportion of
|
|
|
|
the civilian labor force aged 16 and older that are unemployed at the
|
|
|
|
census tract level. Firearm injury counts included individuals with a
|
|
|
|
documented assault-related gunshot wound identified from medical records
|
|
|
|
and supplemented with the Gun Violence Archive between March 20, 2016
|
|
|
|
and December 31, 2018. Available addresses were geocoded to identify
|
|
|
|
their point locations and then aggregated to the census tract level.
|
|
|
|
Besag-York-Mollie (BYM2) Bayesian Poisson models were fit to the data to
|
|
|
|
estimate the association between the index of neighborhood disadvantage
|
|
|
|
and firearm injury count with a population offset within each census
|
|
|
|
tract.ResultsNeighborhood disadvantage was significantly associated with
|
|
|
|
the count of firearm injury in both non-spatial and spatial models. For
|
|
|
|
two census tracts that differed by 1 decile of neighborhood
|
|
|
|
disadvantage, the number of firearm injuries was higher by 21.0\% (95\%
|
|
|
|
credible interval: 10.5, 32.8\%) in the group with higher neighborhood
|
|
|
|
disadvantage. After accounting for spatial structure, there was still
|
|
|
|
considerable residual spatial dependence with 53.3\% (95\% credible
|
|
|
|
interval: 17.0, 87.3\%) of the model variance being spatial.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, we observed census tracts with higher disadvantage and
|
|
|
|
lower count of firearm injury in communities with proximity to
|
|
|
|
employment opportunities and targeted redevelopment, suggesting other
|
|
|
|
contextual protective factors.ConclusionsEven after adjusting for
|
|
|
|
socioeconomic factors, firearm injury research should investigate
|
|
|
|
spatial clustering as independence cannot be able to be assumed. Future
|
|
|
|
research should continue to examine potential contextual and
|
|
|
|
environmental neighborhood determinants that could impact firearm
|
|
|
|
injuries in urban communities.'
