The fundamental causes of disaster vulnerability
Land access is one of the strongest predictors of disaster vulnerability for extreme weather events in rural, low-income environments. In Southern Africa, smallholder farmers face accelerating land loss from both slow-onset stressors, such as declining soil fertility and acute stressors such as cyclones. However, the complex mechanisms through which land loss perpetuates disaster vulnerability require a deeper examination of the lived experience …
Direct and indirect pathways of climate-related impacts on vulnerable populations
Climate change exacerbates health and economic inequities, disproportionately impacting vulnerable populations. This study empirically validates and expands the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) risk framework—hazard, exposure, and vulnerability—by incorporating personal and collective dimensions such as risk appraisal, everyday adaptation, and community resilience. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) and data from a national …
Awareness, knowledge, and attitude towards basic life support among healthcare professional students in Bangladesh
A comprehensive understanding of emergency care is an essential skill for all medical students to effectively manage emergency situations. The aim of this study was to evaluate healthcare professional students’ understanding of basic life support (BLS) and to identify the factors that influence this knowledge. A Multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted across eight educational institutions in the Dhaka, Jashore, and Sylhet divisions of Ba…
Pathways between intimate partner violence and HIV care and treatment during pregnancy and postpartum
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is associated with suboptimal HIV treatment behaviors and health outcomes among perinatal women. Less is known about the postpartum phase or how distinct types of perinatal IPV exposure may inhibit HIV-related care. We conducted a qualitative study nested within an ongoing trial among perinatal women in rural Kenya to explore the influence of IPV on adherence to HIV treatment during pregnancy and postpartum. In 202…
Assessments of effectiveness of technologies utilizations in VIHSCM among selected health facilities in Tanzania mainland
Immunization coverage remains a challenge in many developing countries Tanzania being no exception. The current increase in technology adoption in the immunisation supply chain promises the attainment of universal health coverage and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on immunisation. This study evaluates the effectiveness of technology integration in Vaccine and Immunization Health Supply Chain Management (VIHSCM) in Tanzania. This study adopt…
Anaesthesia delivery systems in low and lower-middle-income Asian countries
Literature on anaesthesia systems in low and lower middle-income countries is limited, focused on the Africa region, and provides minimal data on anaesthesia or associated disciplines within intensive care, pain management and emergency medicine. We thus conducted a scoping review of primary and secondary research literature on capacity and effectiveness of anaesthesia delivery in low and lower middle-income countries in the Asia region from 2000…
Re-engagement and retention in HIV care after preventive default tracking in a cohort of HIV-infected patients in rural Malawi
Loss-to-follow-up (LTFU) in the era of test-and-treat remains a universal challenge, especially in rural areas. To mitigate LTFU, the HIV program in Neno District, Malawi, utilizes a preventive default tracking strategy named Tracking for Retention and Client Enrollment (TRACE). We utilized a mixed-methods descriptive study of the TRACE program on patient’s re-engagement and retention in care (RiC). In the quantitative arm, we utilized secondary …
Breaking the silence on gendered harassment and assault of community health workers
INTRODUCTION: Across a variety of settings, women in tenuous financial circumstances are drawn to community health work as a way to advance themselves in the context of limited employment options. Female Community Health Workers (CHWs) are often preferred because they can more easily access mothers and children; at the same time, gender norms are at the heart of many of the challenges and inequities that these workers encounter. Here, we explore …
Nationwide introduction of HPV vaccine in Zimbabwe 2018–2019
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine for girls aged 9–14 years for cervical cancer prevention and encourages vaccinating multiple cohorts in the first year to maximize impact. The HPV vaccine was introduced nationwide in Zimbabwe in 2018 through a 1-week school-based campaign to multiple cohorts (all girls 10–14 years old), followed by a single cohort (grade 5 girls in school and age 10 girls out-o…
Flashing red lights
As COVID-19 vaccination roll-outs are progressing in wealthy parts of the world, several countries are implementing or investigating COVID-19 vaccination passports that restrict access to restaurants, sports events or universities to those who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. While these discussions focus on domestic implementation, we must assume that, once introduced, vaccination passports will be applied to international travel. We…
A proposed service model for early identification of autism spectrum disorder in ethnic communities in Southern Israel
Early autism spectrum disorder (ASD) detection is a precondition for effective intervention and facilitates significant improvements in functioning. In Israel, toddlers undergo general developmental screening by public health nurses (PHNs) at maternal and child health centres (MCHCs). Nevertheless, there are disparities among ethnic groups in the reported incidence of ASD. By means of an ecological model (EM), we identified strategies that improv…
Per Diems in Polio Eradication
Nearly all global health initiatives give per diems to community health workers (CHWs) in poor countries for short-term work on disease-specific programs. We interviewed CHWs, supervisors, and high-level officials (n = 95) in 6 study sites across sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia in early 2012 about the per diems given to them by the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. These per diems for CHWs ranged from $1.50 to $2.40 per day. International of…
Doing the Best We Can
Following a national policy shift toward universal access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Malawi, hospitals and clinics around the country made major changes to enable the provision of ART. In this already resource-limited environment, the provision of ART brought new health care delivery challenges to bear on both patients and health care professionals. The substance and form of these local interventions are affected by a multilayered global …
The Global Context of Vaccine Refusal
Many of medical anthropology's most pressing research questions require an understanding how infections, money, and ideas move around the globe. The Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) is a $9 billion project that has delivered 20 billion doses of oral polio vaccine in campaigns across the world. With its array of global activities, it cannot be comprehensively explored by the traditional anthropological method of research at one field sit…
Methods for evaluating the impact of vertical programs on health systems
The study design has four major benefits: (1) the careful selection of a range of qualitative case studies allowed for systematic comparison; (2) the use of participant observation yielded important insights on how policy is put into practice; (3) results from our quantitative analysis could be explained by results from qualitative work; and (4) this research protocol can inform the creation of actionable recommendations. Here, recommendations fo…
Evidence, ethos and experiment
Weaving Networks of Responsibility
The need to cope with the impact of the AIDS epidemic on communities in Africa has resulted in the emergence of numerous community health and development programs. Initiated by governments, international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and local organizations, such programs target local communities with the goal of building care and support mechanisms in the local level. Based on ethnographic field research in rural Malawi, and drawing from…
Battling for Survival, Battling for Moral Clarity
Undocumented migrant workers living with HIV/AIDS in Israel, like their counterparts elsewhere, are doubly abject due to their lack of legal status on one hand and their ill health on the other. Unlike Israeli citizens living with HIV/AIDS, who can access an array of state funded treatments and support services, undocumented migrant workers living with HIV/AIDS are marginalized both by the state's exclusive immigration regime and by its efforts t…
