城市的建成环境是复杂的，影响着健康的社会和环境决定因素。在这项研究中，我们1)根据拉丁美洲城市的建成景观和街道设计特征确定了城市概况，2)评估了城市概况与健康和空气污染的社会决定因素之间的关联。使用有限混合模型识别了370个城市的景观和街道设计概况。对于景观，我们测量了碎片化、孤立性和形状。对于街道设计，我们测量了街道的连通性、街道长度和直接度。我们建立了一个两级线性混合模型来评估健康的社会和环境决定因素与概况的关联。我们确定了四个景观和四个街道设计领域的配置文件。最常见的景观轮廓是“近端石”，其特征是中等破碎、孤立和斑块大小，形状不规则。最常见的街道设计轮廓是“半双曲网格”，其特点是适度的连通性、街道长度和直接性。“半双曲线网格”、“蜘蛛网”和“双曲线网格”的轮廓与更多地获得自来水和较少的过度拥挤呈正相关。“半双曲线网格”和“蜘蛛网”轮廓与更高的空气污染有关。“近端结石”和“近端墨迹”的轮廓与较高的充血程度相关。总而言之，拉丁美洲城市的城市景观和街道设计概况存在很大的异质性。虽然我们没有发现特定的建成环境概况一直与较低的空气污染和更好的社会条件相关联，但在规划拉丁美洲健康和可持续的城市时，应该考虑城市建成环境的不同配置。
The built environment of cities is complex and influences social and environmental determinants of health. In this study we, 1) identified city profiles based on the built landscape and street design characteristics of cities in Latin America and 2) evaluated the associations of city profiles with social determinants of health and air pollution. Landscape and street design profiles of 370 cities were identified using finite mixture modeling. For landscape, we measured fragmentation, isolation, and shape. For street design, we measured street connectivity, street length, and directness. We fitted a two-level linear mixed model to assess the association of social and environmental determinants of health with the profiles. We identified four profiles for landscape and four for the street design domain. The most common landscape profile was the “proximate stones” characterized by moderate fragmentation, isolation and patch size, and irregular shape. The most common street design profile was the “semi-hyperbolic grid” characterized by moderate connectivity, street length, and directness. The “semi-hyperbolic grid”, “spiderweb” and “hyperbolic grid” profiles were positively associated with higher access to piped water and less overcrowding. The “semi-hyperbolic grid” and “spiderweb” profiles were associated with higher air pollution. The “proximate stones” and “proximate inkblots” profiles were associated with higher congestion. In conclusion, there is substantial heterogeneity in the urban landscape and street design profiles of Latin American cities. While we did not find a specific built environment profile that was consistently associated with lower air pollution and better social conditions, the different configurations of the built environments of cities should be considered when planning healthy and sustainable cities in Latin America.
