Neighborhood infrastructure-related risk factors and non-communicable diseases: a systematic meta-review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With rapid urbanization, the urban environment, especially the neighborhood environment, has received increasing global attention. However, a comprehensive overview of the association between neighborhood risk factors and human health remains unclear due to the large number of neighborhood risk factor-human health outcome pairs.
