Lessons learned from the Covid-19 pandemic
INTRODUCTION: The COVID-19 pandemic strained public health infrastructure in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), leading them to leverage resources of existing public health programmes including HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria. This manuscript systematically documents how these programmes were used in response to understand both the barriers and facilitators encountered in the process. METHODS: From March through August 2023, we co…
Life course approach to health
Intersecting crises, such as complex health threats, deep-rooted inequities, and intergenerational vulnerabilities, expose the critical limitations of fragmented, disease-specific global health programmes. While the life course approach to health (LCAH) is theoretically recognised, it is inadequately implemented in global health governance and financing. In this viewpoint, we aim to reposition LCAH as an operational blueprint for the future globa…
Global health at a crossroads
Association between age at first birth and cognitive function in women 60 years and older
Later AFB is associated with a reduced prevalence of cognitive impairment and improved cognitive outcomes, particularly when the first birth occurs after age 21. Considering WHtR and WWI may further optimize the protective effects of AFB on cognitive health. These findings underscore the importance of reproductive timing for long-term cognitive health
The long-term impacts of preschool attendance on prosocial behaviors of children in China
The readiness of malaria services and uptake of intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy in six sub-Saharan countries
Background: Malaria infection during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of maternal death, as well as adverse birth outcomes. Intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (IPTp-SP) is known to improve pregnancy outcomes. However, the coverage of IPTp-SP in antenatal care (ANC) in sub-Saharan Africa remains well below the target. This study aims to estimate to what extent malaria service readiness affec…
The impact of parental migration on left-behind children’s vision health in rural China
Our findings suggest that parental migration, while not increasing the prevalence of myopia in left-behind children, has led to inequity in myopic left-behind children's correction. Given the severe consequences of uncorrected myopia, action is required to enhance the correction rate of myopic left-behind children
Impact of Teacher Incentive Intervention on Students’ Vision Healthcare Uptake
Less than one-third of rural Chinese children with refractive error own or wear eyeglasses. To study the effect of teacher incentives on the acceptance of vision care offered to rural students with uncorrected refractive error, we conducted a cluster-randomized controlled trial in 18 townships in one county in Shaanxi Province. Primary and junior high schools within each township were assigned to either intervention (all teachers received an ince…
Design, implementation, and monitoring of HIV service packages for people who inject drugs
Developing and implementing national health identifiers in resource limited countries
Many resource-limited countries are scaling up health services and health-information systems (HISs). The HIV Cascade framework aims to link treatment services and programs to improve outcomes and impact. It has been adapted to HIV prevention services, other infectious and non-communicable diseases, and programs for specific populations. Where successful, it links the use of health services by individuals across different disease categories, time…
Health Seeking Behavior among Rural Left-Behind Children
More than 60 million children in rural China are “left-behind”—both parents live and work far from their rural homes and leave their children behind. This paper explores differences in how left-behind and non-left-behind children seek health remediation in China’s vast but understudied rural areas. This study examines this question in the context of a program to provide vision health care to myopic rural students. The data come from a randomized …
The Effect of Providing Free Eyeglasses on Children’s Mental Health Outcomes in China
If children with common vision problems receive and use eyeglasses, their educational performance rises. Without proper treatment, visually impaired children may not achieve educational gains and could suffer from poor mental health. We use a randomized controlled trial to study the impact of an eyeglasses promotion program in rural China on the mental health of myopic primary school students. Three measures of mental health are used: learning an…
Can HIV service data be used for surveillance purposes
HIV service data can complement existing HIV surveillance systems for MSM in China, though it may underestimate the HIV prevalence (HSS+ data contains people whose status is already know, while service data contains people who were initially negative or people of unknown status). HIV service data can be used for surveillance purposes, when prerequisite variables are collected from a large number people, if the quality assessment is conducted
Dual Epidemics of Drug Use and Syphilis Among Chinese Female Sex Workers
Accessing HIV testing and treatment among men who have sex with men in China
Barriers to HIV testing and HIV care and treatment pose significant challenges to HIV prevention among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China. We carried out a qualitative study to identify barriers and facilitators to HIV testing and treatment among Chinese MSM. In 2012, seven focus group (FG) discussions were conducted with 49 MSM participants in Nanjing, China. Purposive sampling was used to recruit a diverse group of MSM participants. Semi-…
Association of dietary pattern and body weight with blood pressure in Jiangsu Province, China
A traditional dietary pattern is associated with high blood pressure among the population of Jiangsu Province, which may be mainly due to high salt intake. Moreover, high BMI is an important determinant of high blood pressure. Both issues need to be addressed by lifestyle interventions

Randomized clinical trial comparing different iodine interventions in school children
Objective The purpose of this trial was to compare three different iodine interventions. Design School children aged 8–10 years were randomized into one of three groups: group A was provided with iodized salt by researchers with an iodine concentration of 25 ppm; group B purchased iodized salt from the market; and group C was similar to group B with the exception that they were given iodized oil capsules containing 400 mg iodine at the beginning …
