由于地理面积、环境、生物多样性、生态资产和人口密度各不相同，社会经济发展和应对环境和健康挑战的能力差异很大，因此，评估太平洋盆地环境对健康的影响面临着数据类型-数量、质量和缺乏程度-差异很大的挑战。我们讨论了三个基于案例的方法的例子，从太平洋盆地环境健康影响评估。这些方法可用于改善所有国家和区域各级的环境健康证据，涵盖大数据可用性和无数据的范围。这些方法是：1）根据这些颗粒物的化学成分对韩国空气中的颗粒物进行风险评估; 2）使用系统动力学评估偏远所罗门群岛一系列环境健康决定因素对儿童健康结果的影响;和3）基于全面数据收集，分析，和建模（包括贝叶斯信念网络和空间流行病学），提高良好的环境卫生决策的准确性，以预防和控制斐济群岛的人畜共患病。我们表明，虽然这三个例子的一个共同主题是高质量和数量的数据对支持更强有力的政策决策和适当的投资优先次序的价值，但很明显，对于太平洋盆地的许多国家来说，足够的数据仍然是一个挑战，以告知决策者环境对健康的影响。
Assessing environmental impacts on health in the Pacific Basin is challenged by significantly varying data types – quantities, qualities, and paucities – because of varying geographic sizes, environments, biodiversity, ecological assets, and human population densities, with highly varied and unequal socio-economic development and capacity to respond to environmental and health challenges. We discuss three case-based methodological examples from Pacific Basin environmental health impact assessments. These methods could be used to improve environmental health evidence at all country and regional levels across a spectrum of big data availability to no data. These methods are, 1) a risk assessment of airborne particulate matter in Korea based on the chemical composition of these particulates; 2) the use of system dynamics to appraise the influences of a range of environmental health determinants on child health outcomes in remote Solomon Islands; and 3) precision environmental public health methodologies based on comprehensive data collection, analyses, and modelling (including Bayesian belief networks and spatial epidemiology) increasing precision for good environmental health decision making to prevent and control a zoonotic disease in Fiji Islands. We show that while a common theme across the three examples is the value of high quality and quantity data to support stronger policy decisions and appropriate prioritizing of investment, it is also clear that for many countries in the Pacific Basin, sufficient data will remain a challenge to inform decision makers about environmental impact on health.
