Do sociodemographic factors modify the association between antenatal care utilisation and acute respiratory infection among infants in Ethiopia
Antenatal care (ANC) is vital for optimum maternal care and could provide an opportunity to prevent acute respiratory infection (ARI) in early childhood, particularly in low-resource settings; however, its impact on ARI remains underexplored. This study examined the association between ANC utilisation and ARI in Ethiopian infants, including stratified analyses by key socio-demographic factors. A total of 4,154 mother-infant pairs were analysed, u…
Extreme Weather, Vulnerable Populations, and Mental Health: The Timely Role of AI Interventions
Environmental disasters are becoming increasingly frequent and severe, disproportionately impacting vulnerable populations who face compounded risks due to intersectional factors such as gender, socioeconomic status, rural residence, and cultural identity. These events exacerbate mental health challenges, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and underser…
Urban–Rural Disparities in Non-Adherence to Iron Supplementation Among Pregnant Women Aged 15 to 49 in Sub-Saharan Africa
Rural sub-Saharan Africa has significantly higher non-adherence to iron supplementation, particularly in LICs, likely driven by systemic barriers such as poor infrastructure and limited access to healthcare. This non-adherence in rural areas undermines efforts to improve pregnancy and birth outcomes across the region. Targeted interventions, like those in Zimbabwe, can help address these inequities and improve maternal health outcomes

Impact of Individual, Familial and Parental Factors on Adolescent Smoking in Turkey
The burden of adolescent cigarette smoking is substantial. We assess mothers' and fathers' attitudes and behaviours on adolescent smoking using a cross-sectional study of n = 707 adolescents. Associations between parental attitudes and behaviours in adolescent smoking were assessed using logistic regression separately for boys and girls. Occasional alcohol use by both parents increased odds of smoking once a day (OR = 2.44, 95% CI 1.26, 4.71, OR …
