An assessment of primary health care costs and resource requirements in Kaduna and Kano, Nigeria
Introduction: The availability of quality primary health care (PHC) services in Nigeria is limited. The PHC system faces significant challenges and the improvement and expansion of PHC services is constrained by low government spending on health, especially on PHC. Out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditures dominate health spending in Nigeria and the reliance on OOP payments leads to financial burdens on the poorest and most vulnerable populations. To addr…
Costs and resource needs for primary health care in Ethiopia
Introduction: The Government of Ethiopia (GoE) has made significant progress in expanding access to primary health care (PHC) over the past 15 years. However, achieving national PHC targets for universal health coverage will require a significant increase in PHC financing. The purpose of this study was to generate cost evidence and provide recommendations to improve PHC efficiency. Methods: We used the open access Primary Health Care Costing, Ana…
The costs and financing needs of delivering Kenya’s primary health care service package
Introduction: For many Kenyans, high-quality primary health care (PHC) services remain unavailable, inaccessible, or unaffordable. To address these challenges, the Government of Kenya has committed to strengthening the country's PHC system by introducing a comprehensive package of PHC services and promoting the efficient use of existing resources through its primary care network approach. Our study estimated the costs of delivering PHC services i…
Race Performance Prediction from the Physiological Profile in National Level Youth Cross-Country Cyclists
Cross-country mountain biking is an Olympic sport discipline with high popularity among elite and amateur cyclists. However, there is a scarcity of data regarding the key determinants of performance, particularly in young cross-country cyclists. The aim of this study was to examine the physiological profile of youth national-level cross-country cyclists and to determine those variables that were able to best predict the performance in an official…
Prospects of Estimating Poverty with Phone Surveys
Telephone surveys enable us to collect \n data in a cost-effective and timely manner, but may not be \n conducive for collecting detailed consumption or income data \n for measuring poverty due to the required length of the \n interview and complexity of the questions. Combining \n telephone surveys with a survey-to-survey imputation \n technique may be a solution, as this technique can produce \n reliable poverty estimates from only 10 to 20 sim…
Más allá de la sangre
Diario Extra is a Costa Rican newspaper known for its sensationalist trend. The femicide news have a tonic in which the victim is “re-victimized”: the elements of the news show a very vulnerable person. This paper Studies this discursive manifestation in the news of Diario Extra during the year 2011. An initial collection of 117 articles was made, of which 44 correspond to murders and violations without a clear motive by the perpetrator of the cr…

Carbon sequestration potential of second-growth forest regeneration in the Latin American tropics
Models reveal the high carbon mitigation potential of tropical forest regeneration.
Genetic Structure Analysis of Three Hispanic Populations from Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Southwestern United States Using Y-Chromosome STR Markers and mtDNA Sequences
Two hundred seventeen male subjects from Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Hispanic population of the southwestern United States were studied. Twelve Y-chromosome STRs and the HVSI sequence of the mtDNA were analyzed to describe their genetic structure and to compare maternal and paternal lineages. All subjects are part of two NIMH-funded studies to localize schizophrenia susceptibility genes in Hispanic populations of Mexican and Central American ance…
