Family-centered interventions for people with substance use disorders in low-and middle-income country settings
BACKGROUND: Substance use disorders (SUD) present a significant global health challenge, impacting people who use drugs (PWUD) and their families. While family-centered interventions have shown positive outcomes in high-income countries, their application in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) remains unexplored. This scoping review sought to synthesize existing research evaluating family-centered interventions for PWUD in LMICs. METHODS: A c…
Global Adoption of Value-Based Health Care Initiatives Within Health Systems
This scoping review showed that since its formal introduction in 2006, VBHC has been widely recognized as a strategy for improving health system performance, but large-scale adoption will require a strategic shift toward integrating value-based components at national and regional levels. These findings highlight the need for research on effective implementation models, particularly in lower-resource settings, to guide policymakers and health syst…

Impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on maternal mental health, early childhood development, and parental practices
Despite remaining gaps, we have identified sufficient evidence pointing to an urgent need for more concerted global research efforts and rapid policy responses to timely address severe and pervasive negative impacts to the mental health of mothers and children at a key developmental stage
Interventions to increase the uptake and continuation of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) by adolescent girls and young women at high risk of HIV in low-income and middle-income countries
INTRODUCTION: Effective strategies to increase pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake and continuation among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) who engage in sex work or transactional sex are sparsely reported. We aimed to describe the available evidence on strategies for improving the uptake and continuation of PrEP among AGYW who engage in sex work or transactional sex, or otherwise are at high risk of acquiring HIV, and report their imple…
Variation in the incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus in children and adolescents by world region and country income group
Introduction Around 18.7 million of the 537 million people with diabetes worldwide live in low-income and middle-income countries (LMIC), where there is also an increase in the number of children, adolescents, and young adults diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D). There are substantial gaps in data in the current understanding of the epidemiological patterns and trends in incidence rates of T1D at the global level. Methods We performed a scoping …
