What determines consumption of nutritious foods by the urban poor in Africa
Purpose Malnutrition remains a big public health issue especially in developing countries. The purpose of this paper is to analyze factors that influence consumption of nutrient-rich foods among children aged 6–59 months and women of reproductive age (15–49 years) in the urban informal settlements of Nairobi, Kenya, and Kampala, Uganda. This study uses multicomposite soft porridge as an example of a nutritious product. Design/methodology/approach…
Independent Supported Housing for Non-homeless People With Serious Mental Illness: A Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial
ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier: NCT03815604, December 04, 2019
Independent Supported Housing for non-homeless individuals with severe mental illness: Comparison of two effectiveness studies using a randomised controlled and an observational study design
Participants were comparable in both study sites. However, there were significant problems in conducting the RCT because of strong preferences for ISH. The OS with propensity score methods provided results of more stable groups of participants and revealed balanced samples and valid outcome analysis. Our results do not support further investment in RCTs in this field
Independent Supported Housing Versus Institutionalised Residential Rehabilitation for Individuals with Severe Mental Illness: A Survey of Attitudes and Working Conditions Among Mental Healthcare Profe…
Despite widespread support for Independent Supported Housing (ISH) interventions, psychiatric housing rehabilitation still commonly takes place in residential care facilities (RCFs). This study compares preferences, attitudes and working conditions of mental healthcare professionals (MHCPs) in ISH and RCFs using an online survey. The survey included setting preferences, stress and strain at work, recovery attitudes, stigmatisation, and factors ex…

Are consumers at the base of the pyramid willing to pay for nutritious foods
Base of the Pyramid (BoP) consumers living in the urban informal settlements of developing countries spend over 60% of their income on food, yet malnutrition and micronutrient deficiency remain widespread among these populations, pointing to the inadequacy of the foods they consume in terms of quality and quantity. In this paper we examine BoP consumers’ willingness to pay (WTP) for nutritious multi-composite porridge flour (improved flour) in th…
Machine Learning: An Approach in Identifying Risk Factors for Coercion Compared to Binary Logistic Regression
Introduction: Although knowledge about negative effects of coercive measures in psychiatry exists, its prevalence is still high in clinical routine. This study aimed at define risk factors and test machine learning algorithms for their accuracy in the prediction of the risk to being subjected to coercive measures. Methods: In a sample of involuntarily hospitalized patients ( n = 393) at the University Hospital of Psychiatry Zurich, we analyzed ri…
Utilization and Effectiveness of Home Treatment for People With Acute Severe Mental Illness: A Propensity-Score Matching Analysis of 19 Months of Observation
Treatment guidelines recommend home treatment (HT) as an effective alternative to inpatient treatment for individuals with severe, acute mental illness (SAMI). Nevertheless, HT is largely unfamiliar in German-speaking countries. Here we examined the utilization and effectiveness of HT services newly implemented in a large hospital setting in Switzerland. We used a naturalistic observational study design including patients ( n = 201, 18-65 years, …
