Economic evaluation of self-help group interventions for health in LMICs
This scoping review aims to identify and critically appraise published economic evaluations of self-help group (SHG) interventions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) that seek to improve health and potentially also non-health outcomes. Through a systematic search of MEDLINE ALL (Ovid), EMBASE Ovid, PsychINFO, EconLit (Ovid) and Global Index Medicus, we identified studies published between 2014 and 2020 that were based in LMICs, included …
Comparing the use of direct observation, standardized patients and exit interviews in low- and middle-income countries
Clinical records in primary healthcare settings in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) are often lacking or of too poor quality to accurately assess what happens during the patient consultation. We examined the most common methods for assessing healthcare workers’ clinical behaviour: direct observation, standardized patients and patient/healthcare worker exit interview. The comparative feasibility, acceptability, reliability, validity and pra…

Improving the health and welfare of people who live in slums
The history, geography, and sociology of slums and the health problems of people who live in slums
Use of traditional medicine in middle-income countries
It is frequently stated in the scientific literature, official reports and the press that 80% of Asian and African populations use traditional medicine (TM) to meet their healthcare needs; however, this statistic was first reported in 1983. This study aimed to update knowledge of the prevalence of TM use and the characteristics of those who access it, to inform health policy-makers as countries seek to fulfil the WHO TM strategy 2014-23 and harne…
A multistudy analysis investigating systematic differences in cardiovascular trial results between Europe and Asia
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether there are differences in the results of cardiovascular trials between Europe and Asia using data from an extensive collection of randomised controlled trials. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: All meta-analyses containing randomised controlled trials (RCT's) for the treatment or prevention of cardiovascular diseases were searched for in The Cochrane Library (2000-2008) and MEDLINE (2005-2008). Analysis was then conducted with…
Assessing and understanding quality of care in a labour ward
Choosing between CT colonography and colonoscopy in the diagnostic context
Objective To explore information needs and preferences on diagnostic bowel tests and elicit preferences for CT colonography (CTC) vs. colonoscopy (CC). Background CTC is a new technology for large‐bowel imaging that has been widely assumed to be more acceptable than CC because it is non‐invasive. Design Semi‐structured focus groups discussing information choices and procedure preferences. Setting and participants Non‐patient sample of 26 asymptom…

Use of a Computer to Take Booking Histories in a Hospital Antenatal Clinic
An interactive computer system was used by midwives to acquire a full patient history at the first antenatal visit. The clinical efficacy of the system had been previously established. The present evaluation examined the effects of computer use on the interview process and on midwife-patient communications, and its acceptability to midwives and patients. Data included video recordings of 32 conventional interviews and of 63 interviews in which th…
