Understanding rice preferences and awareness of brown rice among persons with diabetes
Polished white rice (WR), high in refined carbohydrates, the main staple in South India is associated with enhanced risk of diabetes. Brown Rice (BR), with lower glycemic load, high fibre content and micronutrients, is a healthier choice. Two hundred and twelve Persons with Diabetes (PwD) attending a tertiary diabetes care centre in a city in South India responded to a questionnaire documenting types, frequency and reasons for rice consumption, a…
Validation and adaptation of the Suicide Stigma Assessment Scale for use with young adults in India
Intergenerational conflict and suicidal behaviour among young people in south India
Background: Intergenerational conflict (IGC), characterised by tensions between younger and older generations due to differing values, beliefs, and expectations, is a growing concern that could increase the risk of suicidal ideation/behaviour among youth. Aim: The aim of the study was to develop a conceptual framework (CF) to explore the relationship between IGC and suicidal behaviour among youth aged 18 to 24 years in Chennai, South India. Metho…
Exploring the challenges in the management of childhood pneumonia-qualitative findings from health care providers from two high prevalence states in India
India ranks among the top five countries in the world in child deaths due to pneumonia. Apart from poor public awareness, inadequate health infrastructure and treatment services have compromised effective management. This qualitative study guided by components of the Andersen-Newman’s health care utilization framework explored contextual and community challenges faced by health care providers (HCPs) in the delivery of care services for children w…
Understanding low mobilization for non-communicable diseases among people living with NCDs
Differential item functioning for items in Berger’s HIV Stigma Scale
The items in the 32-item version of the HIV stigma scale did not seem to be particularly prone to present DIF. The DIF between the Indian and Swedish cohort for items in the subscale Disclosure Concerns could, however, result in both type I and type II errors if scores should be compared between the Indian and Swedish cohort
Casp – An intervention by community volunteers to reduce suicidal behaviour among refugees
BACKGROUND: Refugees are at risk of psychiatric morbidity because of forced migration, traumatic events and resettlement in unfamiliar environments. Many live in low- and middle-income countries (LAMIC) under stressful conditions contributing to increased suicide risk. AIMS: This study assessed the feasibility of regular contact and use of safety planning cards (CASP) by community volunteers (CVs) in reducing suicidal behaviour among Sri Lankan r…
Sociocultural and structural perpetuators of domestic violence in pregnancy
In India, reported rates of domestic violence rise as high as 31%. Abuse against pregnant women in India is associated with depressive and PTSD symptoms, and poor birth outcomes, yet no evidence-based interventions have been tested on this population. In this cross-sectional qualitative study, we sought perspective on South Indian women's concerns about abuse during pregnancy and what they believed would help. Participants cited economic dependen…
Antiretroviral therapy adherence measurement in non-clinical settings in South India
Optimal adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is key to viral suppression, but may be impeded by psychosocial consequences of HIV-infection such as stigma and depression. Measures of adherence in India have been examined in clinic populations, but little is known about the performance of these measures outside clinical settings. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 151 Tamil-speaking people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA) in India recruited th…
