How I would like to forget
Traumatic and stressful life events can have lasting effects on mental health, particularly among older adults in low-resource settings. In Latin America, there is limited qualitative evidence capturing the lived experiences of these events. This study explores how older adults in Peru reflect on traumatic and stressful events throughout their lives, and how these experiences continue to shape their mental health in later life. This qualitative s…
Core outcome sets for trials of interventions to prevent and to treat multimorbidity in adults in low and middle-income countries
INTRODUCTION: The burden of multimorbidity is recognised increasingly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), creating a strong emphasis on the need for effective evidence-based interventions. Core outcome sets (COS) appropriate for the study of multimorbidity in LMICs do not presently exist. These are required to standardise reporting and contribute to a consistent and cohesive evidence-base to inform policy and practice. We describe the de…
Interdisciplinary perspectives on multimorbidity in Africa
Multimorbidity is an emerging challenge for health systems globally. It is commonly defined as the co-occurrence of two or more chronic conditions in one person, but its meaning remains a lively area of academic debate, and the utility of the concept beyond high-income settings is uncertain. This article presents the findings from an interdisciplinary research initiative that drew together 60 academic and applied partners working in 10 African co…
Case-Finding tool for COPD in LMIC (Cola) - translation and cross-cultural adaptation into Brazilian Portuguese language
OBJECTIVE: To translate and cross-culturally adapt the COPD in Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) Assessment (COLA) questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese, a case-finding instrument for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS: Translation and cross-cultural adaptation were completed in six steps: the original version was translated into Brazilian Portuguese by two native speakers of the target language; the translated version…
Agency and Mental Health Among Peruvian Older Adults During the Covid-19 Lockdown
Peruvian older adults exerted agency in different ways to respond to and sustain their mental health during the COVID-19 lockdown. Policymakers should value and recognize the agency of older adults when planning future health responses
Availability, affordability and access to essential medications for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in three low- and middle-income country settings
Introduction Despite the rising burden of chronic respiratory disease globally, and although many respiratory medications are included in the World Health Organization Essential Medications List (WHO-EML), there is limited information concerning the availability and affordability of treatment drugs for respiratory conditions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods All public and private pharmacies in catchment areas of the Global Exc…
Research priorities to address the global burden of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the next decade
BACKGROUND: The global prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has increased markedly in recent decades. Given the scarcity of resources available to address global health challenges and respiratory medicine being relatively under-invested in, it is important to define research priorities for COPD globally. In this paper, we aim to identify a ranked set of COPD research priorities that need to be addressed in the next 10 years …
