In order to get in-depth knowledge and description of the matter, referring the official website of the author and online journals can be of great help. In context with the reference used from American journal of public health on social gradient in health of indigenous Australians the pattern of their association has been given highlighted importance which suggests the author throws light on socio-economic factors and health outcomes. Although there are n number of facts and findings on nursing and public health but there is very less known about the interrelation between issues in case of an indigenous person. The contributors conducted a review and synthesized the abstract thought followed by evidences for social gradient in health of indigenous Australians and they have revealed less universal and less consistent socio economic pattern in health of indigenous Australians. They have also highlighted unique historical evidences which show social and economic factors have influenced health outcomes. The article also helped me to extract similarity and differences in pattern of indigenous and non indigenous people.

The reference used to depict household food insufficiency and financial strain is very balanced journal article which emphasizes on need for nutrition and urgency of treatment in case of depression for working classes and by depicting the loopholes of both opposite life styles this paper of research has put a very balanced and highly practical reviews which can be of great use and knowledge for the further researchers. The authors are from department of society, human development and community based research and has evaluated the association of household level stress with depressive symptoms among low waged nursing home employees. The survey brought about many important concepts into light regarding financial strain, family work spillover and preoccupation with work related concerns. They also researched on the conditions which were most adverse and conditions which were least adverse and therefore a data was prepared showing the percentage of effectiveness of all these factors on human brain in terms of work pressure, family boundations, disability to manage with both together and impotence to maintain a work home life balance.

The journal on morbidity and physical functioning in old age is in itself a masterpiece presented by authors on the topic which is gaining importance in current day world where hospital management and healthcare is a vast and very fastly growing sector of service industry. The objective of their journal study was to find out difference in morbidity and functional status according to a living area. The survey was a clinically based survey where physicians examined all participants using same standardized products and with help of trained nurses who are competent enough to deal and diagnose in such cases of disability. Results found were monitored elaborately and were shown in data style for further references, differences were found in morbidity, disability, diabetes mellitus and disease pattern according to living area. The rural elderly population were more disabled and ill as compared to urban old age population who had lesser diseases than that of rural people and this is majorly because of increased healthcare options in urban areas and also because of growth in hospital industry and usage of modern technology for treatment like radiology and computer ridden machines. The American journal of public health also threw light on the topic modifying effect of social class on relationship between rural elderly population and health issue rate. The study was done by doctors and researchers on the topic and it gave some important conclusions and inferences. This journal gave me insight into analytic strategy on the given topic and their survey was an eye opener as it gave some very important results which I have included in my study in order to make it more substantial. Taking references becomes more valuable when the researcher supports his/her analysis with relevant surveys and data gatherings. This piece of journal article was highly responsive in case of its conclusion as it gave necessary informations quite swiftly. The research was practically conveyed and data was gathered to give important outcomes which could be secondary source of knowledge and research for many medical and healthcare students who will work on these already conducted researches as a sample of study. The references used by various authors and medical professionals always helps to find out the right judgement and corrective actions for further recommendations. The various researches and practices are outcomes of surveys and practical examples gathered by professionals who have laid a foundation for further referencing and study.
