Associated factors and educational and economic inequalities with raised blood pressure in Cambodia
RBP remains a major public health challenge in Cambodia, with substantial educational and context-specific economic inequalities. Addressing these social determinants through equity-oriented, context-sensitive interventions is essential to reduce the burden of RBP and prevent cardiovascular diseases in the Cambodian population
Educational and economic disparities and risk factors associated with diabetes and impaired fasting glucose in Cambodia
Background: In this study, we aimed to quantify the magnitude of educational and economic disparities and examine risk factors associated with diabetes and impaired fasting glucose in Cambodia. Methods: We used data from the 2023 STEPwise approach to noncommunicable risk factor surveillance to analyse 3660 participants aged 18-69 years. We quantified the extent of disparities using the regression-based slope index of inequality (SII) and relative…
Inequalities in dental service utilization among adults in Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal
DSU was limited across Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal, with the lowest rates observed in Nepal. Substantial socioeconomic and educational inequalities in DSU were evident in Bhutan and Bangladesh. These findings underscore the need for UHC-aligned, equity-focused reforms, including national oral health policies, targeted outreach to disadvantaged groups, and expanded access to preventive services
Trends and projections of age-appropriate vaccination coverage in 41 low- and middle- income countries in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, 2000–2030
Introduction: Routine immunization programs have focused on increasing vaccination coverage, which is equally important for decreasing vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs), particularly in low- and lower-middle-income countries (LMICs). We estimated the trends and projections of age-appropriate vaccination coverage at the regional and national levels, as well as place of residence and wealth index in LMICs. Methods: In total, 174 nationally repres…
Causal effect of video gaming on mental well-being in Japan 2020-2022
The widespread use of video games has raised concerns about their potential negative impact on mental well-being. Nevertheless, the empirical evidence supporting this notion is largely based on correlational studies, warranting further investigation into the causal relationship. Here we identify the causal effect of video gaming on mental well-being in Japan (2020-2022) using game console lotteries as a natural experiment. Employing approaches de…
Determinants and Projections of Minimum Acceptable Diet among Children Aged 6–23 Months
Subnational evidence on the level of inequality in receiving complementary feeding practice among Bangladeshi children is lacking. This study estimated inequality in the minimum acceptable diet (MAD) among Bangladeshi children aged 6-23 months, and identified risk factors for and developed projections of the MAD up to 2030. Data from the Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey 2017-2018 were used in this cross-sectional study. Regression-based s…
Association between socioeconomic factors and unmet need for modern contraception among the young married women
Modern contraceptive methods are effective tools for controlling fertility and reducing unwanted pregnancies. Yet, the unmet need for modern contraception (UNMC) remains high in most of the developing countries of the world. This study aimed to compare the coverage of modern contraceptive usage and the UNMC among the young married women of low- and lower-middle-income countries (LMICs) of Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, and further examined the like…
Associations Among Maternal Metabolic Conditions, Cord Serum Leptin Levels, and Autistic Symptoms in Children
The present study uncovered an association between cord leptin levels and autistic symptoms in children, while maternal metabolic conditions did not have an evident direct influence on the outcome. These results imply that prenatal pro-inflammatory environments affected by maternal metabolic conditions may contribute to the development of autistic symptoms in children. The findings warrant further investigation into the role of leptin in the deve…
Trajectories of Adaptive Behaviors During Childhood in Females and Males in the General Population
Little is known about the trajectory patterns and sex differences in adaptive behaviors in the general population. We examined the trajectory classes of adaptive behaviors using a representative sample and examined whether the class structure and trajectory patterns differed between females and males. We further explored sex differences in neurodevelopmental traits in each latent class. Participants ( n = 994) were children in the Hamamatsu Birth…
Equity and determinants in universal health coverage indicators in Iraq, 2000–2030
To reduce inequality in Iraq, urgent health-system reform is needed, with consideration for vulnerable households having female-heads, less educated mothers, and more children and/or elderly people. Considering varying inequity between and within governorates in Iraq, reconstruction of primary healthcare across the country and cross-sectoral targeted interventions for women should be prioritised
Inequalities and risk factors analysis in prevalence and management of hypertension in India and Nepal
Wealth- and education-based inequalities in prevalence and management of hypertension were high among different socio-economic groups at national and sub-national levels. Tailored strategies are required to effectively manage hypertension in different regions by considering socio-economic and demographic factors
Reducing childhood malnutrition in Bangladesh
Objective: To obtain projections of the prevalence of childhood malnutrition indicators up to 2030 and to analyse the changes of wealth-based inequality in malnutrition indicators and the degree of contribution of socio-economic determinants to the inequities in malnutrition indicators in Bangladesh. Additionally, to identify the risk factors of childhood malnutrition. Design: Cross-sectional study. A Bayesian linear regression model was used to …
Inequalities in financial risk protection in Bangladesh
This study identified a greater inequality in UHC financial hardship indicators. Rich households in Bangladesh were facing disproportionately less financial hardship than the poor ones. Households can be protected from financial hardship associated with healthcare costs by implementing risk pooling mechanism, increasing GDP spending on health, and properly monitoring subsidized programs in public health facilities
Levels and determinants of complementary feeding based on meal frequency among children of 6 to 23 months in Bangladesh
A high level of inadequate CF leading to malnutrition may cause serious health problems among children of 6-23 months in Bangladesh. Vulnerable groups of children (e.g., the children aged 6 to 11 months and children of illiterate fathers), who received low levels of adequate CF, should be targeted by government and other stakeholders while developing strategies and interventions in order to improve overall situation of CF in Bangladesh
