From policy to practice and vice versa
Background Global progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is severely off track. Iran hosts the world’s largest migrant and refugee population, but sanctions, inflation, and workforce migration have strained its capacity. Since the attitudes of service providers influence whether inclusive policies are translated into practice, this study explores frontline staff perspectives on access to public health services for non-citizens i…
Postoperative care in conflict-affected northwest Syria
INTRODUCTION: Thirteen years of conflict have profoundly disrupted Syria's health system. In northwest Syria, constraints such as deliberate attacks on healthcare, chronic underfunding, and a fragmented health system have created a fragile surgical ecosystem in which health workers operate under extreme resource constraints, patients struggle to access care, and postoperative complications are increasingly likely. In this study, we aim to assess …
Renewable resilience in conflict
The Syrian Civil War has resulted in significant devastation, including widespread displacement of millions and extensive damage to infrastructure, particularly healthcare infrastructure. Attacks on healthcare facilities have been frequent, leading to a drastic reduction in available medical services and the exodus of healthcare workers. The resulting impact on civilians, compounded by energy shortages, has been severe, limiting access to essenti…

Health equity and system resilience during crises – ensuring healthcare for refugees based on lessons from Iran’s response to the 2021 Afghan migration

Strengthening public health emergency management through targeted resource allocati…

Global health, climate change and migration
Climate change is considered to be the greatest threat to public health in the coming decades, as ensuing environmental variations lead to population shifts [1]. In June 2022, the number of displaced people worldwide reached an all-time high at over 100 million [2]. Although they are temporary, weather-related disasters are increasingly becoming a major cause [...]
Years From the First Documented Outbreak
The global pandemic spread of cholera from its ancestral home in Bengal was first documented in 1817, an event since recognized as the beginning of the first pandemic [1]. During the third pandemic, which ravaged London in 1854, John Snow conducted his pioneering epidemiologic studies and implemented one of the first evidence-based Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) interventions [1]
Sharing country experiences
In 2021, Jordan was the first country to host the Global School for Refugee and Migrant Health, to improve the knowledge of the public health implications of migration. These perspective articles aim to retrieve salient reflections during the School as a baseline for further enhancement of migrant and health programs. During the School, a compilation of achievements, challenges, and opportunities was discussed around specific interrelated subject…

A Survey on Knowledge, Prevention, and Occurrence of Sexually Transmitted Infections among Freshmen from Four Italian Universities
Background . The peak of sexually transmitted infections (STI) among adolescents/young adults suggests a low level of prevention. In order to assess whether the level of sexual health education (SHE), received by several channels, was effective at improving sexual behaviors, we conducted a survey among freshmen from four Italian universities. Methods . This observational cross-sectional study was carried out with an anonymous self-reported paper …
Mental health and Covid-19 pandemics
A recent survey conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) from June to August 2020 around the globe has clearly highlighted how the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted or halted critical mental health services in 93% of the 130 countries under study despite the demand for mental health is increasing
The NCD/Covid-19 intimidating relationship
A modeling study published in the second semester of 2020 has suggested how two out of 10 people globally are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 mostly because of underlying non-communicable diseases (NCD) [1]. At the same time, the gigantic efforts to face the COVID-19 pandemic have led

The Impact of Covid-19 on Individuals with Hearing and Visual Disabilities during the First Pandemic Wave in Italy
Although health protection measures such as face masks and social distancing play a key role in preventing and controlling the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the unmet needs of disabled individuals should be carefully considered, especially those affected by sensory disabilities. Tailored access to health and social services for individuals affected by sensorineural disabilities should be implemented. Additional actions should include the use of to face m…
Community Use of Face Masks against the Spread of Covid-19
The role of face masks to prevent and control COVID-19 is critical, especially since asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic infected individuals can shed high loads of SARS-CoV-2 in the surrounding environment. In addition to being a two-way barrier to protect against virions droplets both in terms of "source control" (for the benefits of the community) and "physical protection" (for wearer), face masks also allow maintaining physiological temperatures …
Socioeconomic variations in risky sexual behavior among adolescents in 14 sub-Saharan Africa countries who report ever having had sex
Our findings on disparities in condomless sex associated with socioeconomic characteristics might reflect constraint choice and decision making. Results also suggest the need for educational programming and services and better access to barrier methods

Early neonatal mortality in twin pregnancy
BACKGROUND: Around the world, the incidence of multiple pregnancies reaches its peak in the Central African countries and often represents an increased risk of death for women and children because of higher rates of obstetrical complications and poor management skills in those countries. We sought to assess the association between twins and early neonatal mortality compared with singleton pregnancies. We also assessed the role of skilled birth at…
Sexual violence and eclampsia
BACKGROUND: Scientific literature has provided clear evidence of the profound impact of sexual violence on women's health, such as somatic disorders and mental adverse outcomes. However, consequences related to obstetric complications are not yet completely clarified. This study aimed to assess the association of lifetime exposure to intimate partner sexual violence with eclampsia. METHODS: We considered all the seven Demographic and Health Surve…
The impact of underuse of modern methods of contraception among adolescents with unintended pregnancies in 12 low- and middle-income countries
BACKGROUND: In spite of the last decade increase in availability of contraception, around half of the annual 21 million pregnancies notified in low- and middle-income countries in individuals aged 15-19 years are unintended. We sought to explore the contribution of the underuse of modern methods of contraception (MMC) to the annual incidence of unintended pregnancies among adolescent women. METHODS: We used Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) dat…
