Prevention and treatment of low back pain
What low back pain is and why we need to pay attention
Monitoring and accountability for the Pacific response to the non-communicable diseases crisis
The framework for the Pacific Monitoring Alliance for NCD Action (MANA) draws together core country-level components of NCD monitoring data (mortality, morbidity, risk factors, health system responses, environments, and policies) and identifies key cross-cutting issues for strengthening national and regional monitoring systems. These include: capacity building; a regional knowledge exchange hub; innovations (monitoring childhood obesity and food …
The global burden of low back pain
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the global burden of low back pain (LBP). METHODS: LBP was defined as pain in the area on the posterior aspect of the body from the lower margin of the twelfth ribs to the lower glutaeal folds with or without pain referred into one or both lower limbs that lasts for at least one day. Systematic reviews were performed of the prevalence, incidence, remission, duration, and mortality risk of LBP. Four levels of severity were i…
Adapting to the health impacts of climate change in a sustainable manner
The climate is changing and this poses significant threats to human health. Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing Pacific Island countries and territories due to their unique geophysical features, and their social, economic and cultural characteristics. The Pacific region also faces challenges with widely dispersed populations, limited resources and fragmented health systems. Over the past few years, there has been a substantial…
Validating a Livelihood Asset Scale in Lao PDR
Mixed method designs are often used in scale development to generate potential items and enhance face validity. Less frequently, mixed method designs are used to examine other aspects of validity. As part of a larger evaluation in the Lao People's Democratic Republic, we developed a scale to assess household self-reported changes in access to livelihood assets following a mine action program. In this article, we detail the process of assessing me…
Common values in assessing health outcomes from disease and injury
Years lived with disability (YLDs) for 1160 sequelae of 289 diseases and injuries 1990–2010
Disability-adjusted life years (Dalys) for 291 diseases and injuries in 21 regions, 1990–2010
Assessing risk of bias in prevalence studies
Global and regional mortality from 235 causes of death for 20 age groups in 1990 and 2010
A comparative risk assessment of burden of disease and injury attributable to 67 risk factors and risk factor clusters in 21 regions, 1990–2010
Building capacity and community resilience to HIV
A partnership was formed between a mass youth organization, a national HIV coordinating committee, and an international agency, to implement an HIV capacity building project in the youth sector of Lao PDR. Involving the local community in situation analysis, planning and skills-building was a key focus of the project. District project working teams were trained in situation analysis, strategic planning, proposal development, and the implementatio…
