Association of drinking water salinity with elevated blood pressure and risk of hypertension among coastal and other populations
Prevalence of cardiometabolic diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa
Cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) are increasingly prevalent in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), underscoring the need to understand the existing public health burden. This would guide future policy strategies and interventions to mitigate the challenges posed. The aim of this systematic review was to provide a comprehensive overview of CMDs prevalence in SSA. A PRISMA 2020 compliant systematic literature search was conducted using MEDLINE and The Cochran…
Community acceptability of cardiovascular risk screening in faith centres in the Kassena-Nankana districts of Northern Ghana
The findings highlight community acceptability and willingness to participate in the screening programme, contingent upon addressing key challenges identified through both focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. These challenges included concerns about treatment affordability, the need for comprehensive community education, maintaining confidentiality, and ensuring screening services are convenient and time efficient. Participants emphas…
Cardiovascular disease prevention
Prevalence of conditions which raise cardiovascular risk, such as hypertension and type 2 diabetes are seeing a dramatic rise in Sub Saharan Africa. A large proportion of these cases remain undiagnosed and there is limited resource to provide patients with self-management support and education once diagnosed. This study aimed to identify and catalogue community-based assets for the purposes of developing and deploying a screening and education pr…
Are remote clinical assessments a feasible and acceptable method of assessment? A systematic review
The COVID-19 pandemic presented an enormous and immediate challenge to assessing clinical skills in healthcare professionals. Many institutions were unable to deliver established face-to-face assessment methods such as Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs). Assessors needed to rapidly institute alternative assessment methods to ensure that candidates met the clinical competences required for progression. Using a systematic review, we…
Improving adherence to antiretroviral therapy in sub-Saharan African HIV-positive populations
With the increasing access to antiretroviral therapy in sub-Saharan African HIV-positive populations, it is important to find additional simple, effective, and feasible methods of improving and maintaining adequately high levels of adherence. In this study, we undertook the development, testing, implementation, and evaluation of various adherence support interventions at four sites in Uganda. A one-group pre- and post-intervention design was empl…
