Abstract Background Experiencing socioeconomic disadvantage, poor health, or child maltreatment in early life has negative effects on child development. However, we know little about children who have good developmental outcomes despite experiencing adversity. Methods This study used de-identified, linked government administrative data from the South Australian Early Childhood Data Project: specifically Australian Early Development Census (AEDC) data for all South Australian born children in their first year of school in 2009, 2012 and 2015 (n = 47,179) and their corresponding birth, perinatal, school enrolment, hospital admission, emergency department presentation, public housing and child protection data. Latent class analyses constructed multidimensional measures of socioeconomic, health, and maltreatment adversities experienced from birth to age 5. Results Overall, 49.8% (95% CI 49.2-50.4) of children were on track on all five AEDC domains, but this ranged from 53.7% among children who did not experience high levels of adversity to 13.5% among children with high levels of all three adversities. Conclusions Among children who experienced high levels of two or three early adversity types, approximately 1 in 5 were developmentally on track. Understanding characteristics of these children who thrive, against the odds, will help identify intervention opportunities to improve child development. Key messages Compared with children who did not experience high levels of adversity, each additional adversity reduced the likelihood of being developmentally on track by approximately 10% to 15%. Children experiencing socioeconomic or maltreatment adversity were less likely to be developmentally on track than children experiencing health adversity.

BackgroundPeople who are nearing the end of life are high users of healthcare. The cost to providers is high and the value of care is uncertain.ObjectivesTo describe the pattern, trajectory and drivers of secondary care use and cost by people in Scotland in their last year of life.MethodsRetrospective whole-population secondary care administrative data linkage study of Scottish decedents of 60 years and over between 2012 and 2017 (N=274 048).ResultsSecondary care use was high in the last year of life with a sharp rise in inpatient admissions in the last 3 months. The mean cost was £10 000. Cause of death was associated with differing patterns of healthcare use: dying of cancer was preceded by the greatest number of hospital admissions and dementia the least. Greater age was associated with lower admission rates and cost. There was higher resource use in the urban areas. No difference was observed by deprivation.ConclusionsHospitalisation near the end of life was least frequent for older people and those living rurally, although length of stay for both groups, when they were admitted, was longer. Research is required to understand if variation in hospitalisation is due to variation in the quantity or quality of end-of-life care available, varying community support, patient preferences or an inevitable consequence of disease-specific needs.

ABSTRACTObjectivesAn accurate picture of infant mortality informs society of its social progress. It is a key indicator of how effective public health policies and programs are in caring for the most vulnerable in our society. Currently, at the population level, Victorian data on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander births and deaths are excluded from Australian vital statistics. The Victorian Aboriginal Mortality Study aimed to provide a more complete and accurate population profile of Aboriginal births in Victoria using population data linkage of Victorian statutory and administrative datasets. ApproachTwo population statutory datasets, the Victorian Perinatal Data Collection (VPDC) and Victorian Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages (RBDM) were linked, using probabilistic matching with mother’s name and surname, child’s date of birth and sex, for all births that occurred in Victoria between 1988 and 2008, inclusive to more accurately ascertain births to mothers and fathers who identified as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander (hereafter respectfully ‘Aboriginal’).ResultsOver 1.34 million files, reporting births between 1988 and 2008, were linked. However, due to data integrity issues for Indigenous identification prior to 1998, the years between 1999 and 2008 only were used in the development of the birth cohort. Matching the VPDC with the RBDM resulted in identifying an additional 4,333 live births where mother and/or father identified as Aboriginal, representing an 87% increase in the number of births previously recorded as Aboriginal by the VPDC*. The largest increase (186%) in the number of births where mother and/or father identified as Aboriginal births was observed within the Victorian metropolitan areas. ConclusionThis is the first time that the VPDC and RBDM birth data were linked in Victoria. The matched birth information established a more complete population profile of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander births. These data will provide a more accurate baseline to enhance the Victorian and Australian governments’ ability to plan services, allocate resources and evaluate funded activities aimed at eliminating disparity experienced by Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples. Importantly, it has established a more accurate denominator from which to calculate Aboriginal infant mortality rates for Victoria, Australia. *Until 2009, the mother’s Indigenous identification only was recorded in the VPDC
