“…The target populations of the health promotion interventions varied widely. They included the general public (18), university students (18, 19), and minority groups (20-22). All interventions that occurred in clinical settings targeted minority groups, such as Asian American and Pacific Islander (20), patients attending a free clinic (21), and people from vulnerable and marginalised backgrounds (i.e., transgender women and uninsured adults) (22).…”

“…All interventions that occurred in clinical settings targeted minority groups, such as Asian American and Pacific Islander (20), patients attending a free clinic (21), and people from vulnerable and marginalised backgrounds (i.e., transgender women and uninsured adults) (22). Two of the interventions were carried out through social media, using such methods as interacting with Instagram users (19) and creating videos to share information and inform the general public about different conditions (18).…”

“…Impact was measured in different ways, depending on the intervention delivery mode. Social media interventions used metrics such as the number of viewers (18) or content created and interactions (i.e., likes) (19). Interventions carried out in clinical settings measured the number of participants receiving screenings (20, 22), health education (21, 22) and vaccinations (20).…”

“…Public health students led health promotion interventions using diverse means. Traditional face-to-face contact was prevalent across the studies, but the use of social media platforms to promote health was also reported in certain cases (18, 19). Due to the nature of the profession, communication is one of the core elements that public health students need to develop.…”

BackgroundPublic health students can contribute to improving population health outcomes; however, this remains an under-researched area. This review aims to assess the extent of the literature related to health promotion interventions led by public health students. This includes what these interventions are and how they are being conducted, as well as their impact on targeted populations.MethodsA scoping review was conducted according to JBI guidelines. A search strategy was developed using the population, context, concept framework. MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase and Google Scholar were consulted. The selection process involved the screening of titles and abstracts against the inclusion criteria, followed by a full-text screening and data extraction by two reviewers. Disagreements were solved by consensus.Results191 studies were identified, but only five of these were included. The target populations included the general public, university students, and minority groups. Students were trained or supervised by experienced staff. The interventions were delivered using diverse means, including innovative approaches through social media. The student-led interventions increased access to preventive services (screening, vaccinations) and improved health knowledge within the target groups.ConclusionPublic health students make impactful contributions by increasing both the access to and the use of preventive services, as well as by promoting health knowledge. Our study contributes to the professionalisation of public health, highlighting for the first time the role of public health students in improving health outcomes. Furthermore, our study sheds light on the students’ impact on the reduction of health inequalities, particularly amongst minority groups.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to explore the mechanism between public services and residents’ health, focusing on the role of spatial geographical factors.Methods: Leveraging a comprehensive panel dataset encompassing 30 mainland Chinese provinces from 2007 to 2019, this study engineered a spatial Durbin model furnished with dual fixed effects through the application of the Lagrange multiplier, Hausman, and likelihood ratio tests. The primary objective was to delve into the repercussions of varying public service levels on residents’ health outcomes.Results: The empirical findings reveal a palpable spatial autocorrelation between residents’ health outcomes and the public services levels dispensed across Chinese provinces. Intriguingly, an elevation in the public service level in a given province not only ameliorates its residents’ health outcomes but also triggers a spatial spillover effect, thereby positively influencing residents’ health in neighboring provinces. The rigorous endogeneity and robustness checks affirm the reliability of the principal outcomes.Conclusion: Due to the increase in social uncertainty, all regions should break free of the administrative monopoly, enhance regional integration and development, and improve residents’ health status by clustering public service supply.
