Health literacy and its influencing factors among the chronically ill
Health literacy (HLIT) is critical for effective self-care in managing chronic illnesses and their outcomes, necessitating targeted interventions. However, existing research is limited in size and scope. This study analysed the status and influencing factors of HLIT among chronically ill individuals in South Korea using a population-based national survey from the Korea Health Panel Survey. From March to July 2021, data were collected from 5652 re…
Factors associated with viral load suppression in pregnant and postpartum women living with HIV in Rwanda
Introduction: Achieving and maintaining HIV viral load suppression (VLS) in pregnant and postpartum women living with HIV (WLWH) is critical for their health and to prevent mother-to-child transmission. However, data on VLS in this population are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and factors associated with VLS among pregnant and postpartum WLWH in Rwanda within 12 months of enrolling in antenatal care. Methods: An open observa…
Convergence of HIV and non-communicable disease epidemics
INTRODUCTION: As people living with HIV (PLHIV) are experiencing longer survival, the co-occurrence of HIV and non-communicable diseases has become a public health priority. In response to this emerging challenge, we aimed to characterise the spatial structure of convergence of chronic health conditions in an HIV hyperendemic community in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, we used data from a comprehensive popula…
It's Called a Forgotten War, So People Don't Pay Attention
Bruce Cumings, Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago, spoke with Haeyoung Kim of the Korea Policy Institute on August 23, 2023 about the current geopolitical landscape in East Asia, prospects for U.S.-Korea relations, and intellectual interventions made over the course of his career
How severe would prioritization-induced bottlenecks need to be offset the benefits from prioritizing Covid-19 vaccination to those most at risk in New York City
Faster vaccination speed with sooner vaccination expansion would save more lives. Prioritization of COVID-19 vaccines to higher-risk populations would be more beneficial only if it does not create an excessive vaccine delivery bottleneck
Patient preferences for HIV service delivery models; a Discrete Choice Experiment in Kisumu, Kenya
Novel “differentiated service delivery” models for HIV treatment that reduce clinic visit frequency, minimize waiting time, and deliver treatment in the community promise retention improvement for HIV treatment in Sub-Saharan Africa. Quantitative assessments of differentiated service delivery (DSD) feature most preferred by patient populations do not widely exist but could inform selection and prioritization of different DSD models. We used a dis…
Predictors of migration in an HIV hyper-endemic rural South African community
Globally, South Africa hosts the highest number of people living with HIV (PLHIV) and the unique legacy of internal labour migration continues to be a major driver of the regional epidemic, interrupting treatment-as-prevention efforts. The study examined levels, trends, and predictors of migration in rural KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa, using population-based surveillance data from 2005 through 2017. We followed 69 604 adult participants a…
PrEP uptake and delivery setting preferences among clients visiting six healthcare facilities in Eswatini
Due to the high HIV incidence among the general population of Eswatini, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV-exposed individuals is recommended. However, little is known about PrEP uptake and preferences in PrEP delivery healthcare setting among the general population. We conducted a secondary analysis of a randomized trial that aimed to increase PrEP uptake. All clients eligible for PrEP in one of six public-sector healthcare facilities in Es…
Can a conditional financial incentive (CFI) reduce socio-demographic inequalities in home-based HIV testing uptake? A secondary analysis of the Hits clinical trial intervention in rural South Africa
In sub-Saharan Africa, home-based HIV testing interventions are designed to reach sub-populations with low access to HIV testing such as men, younger or less educated people. Combining these interventions with conditional financial incentives (CFI) has been shown to be effective to increase testing uptake. CFI are effective for one-off health behaviour change but whether they operate differentially on different socio-demographic groups is less cl…

Evaluating the cost of adult voluntary medical male circumcision in a mixed (surgical and PrePex) site compared to a hypothetical PrePex-only site in South Africa
BACKGROUND: Several circumcision devices have been evaluated for a safe and simplified male circumcision among adults. The PrePex device was prequalified for voluntary male medical circumcision (VMMC) in May 2013 by the World Health Organization and is expected to simplify the procedure safely while reducing cost. South Africa is scaling up VMMC. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the overall unit cost of VMMC at a mixed site vs. a hypothetical PrePex-only s…
Statistical notes for clinical researchers
As discussed in the previous statistical notes, although many statistical methods have been proposed to test normality of data in various ways, there is no current gold standard method. The eyeball test may be useful for medium to large sized (e.g., n > 50) samples, however may not useful for small samples. The formal normality tests including Shapiro-Wilk test and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test may be used from small to medium sized samples (e.g., n < …
Assessment of predictors of global self-ratings of oral health among Korean adults aged 18-95 years
Objectives: The aims of this study were to assess predictors of global self-ratings of oral health (GSROH) and to examine whether they varied by age among Korean adults aged 18-95 years. Methods: Data from 4,546 adults aged 18-95 years completing the Korean National Oral Health Survey 2006 were included in the analysis. Results: Subjects' mean age was 43.5 years, with 12.1 percent aged ≥65 years; 47.8 percent were men; and 2.5 percent were edentu…

Second Language Development in Writing
In this book, the authors analyze and compare the ways in which fluency, accuracy and grammatical complexity have been measured in studies of language development in second language writing. More than 100 developmental measures are examined, with detailed comparisons of the results across the studies that have used each measure. The authors discuss the theoretical foundations for each type of developmental measure, and they consider the relations…
