  • Disparities in deworming coverage between children with and without disabilities

    Open AccessShanquan Chen, Rohan Michael Ramesh et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2026

    BACKGROUND: Children with disabilities experience lower school enrolment rates and may be systematically excluded from school-based deworming programmes. The DeWorm3 trial provided an opportunity to evaluate whether community-wide mass drug administration (cMDA) could reduce these disparities by reaching children outside the education system. METHODS: We conducted a secondary analysis of the data from the DeWorm3 trial in Tamil Nadu, India. Child…

  • Understanding experiences of neglected tropical diseases of the skin

    Open AccessMirgissa Kaba, Yohannes Hailemichael et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    BACKGROUND: The WHO and Ethiopia's Ministry of Health have developed strategies to expand and integrate services for co-endemic neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) which manifest in the skin. To inform these strategies, we aimed to understand the social, economic and health system context of skin NTD care in Kalu woreda, Amhara region, Ethiopia, where cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) and leprosy are endemic. METHODS: Between October 2020 and May 2022,…

  • Better floors, better health

    Open AccessStella Kepha, Hugo Legge et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    This study presents a theory of change framework mapping the pathways through which an improved flooring intervention may impact health and wellbeing. The results can be of use to researchers or programmes that are in the design or evaluation phase of a household flooring project in Kenya or other settings where access to improved floors is limited

  • Improving experiences of neglected tropical diseases of the skin

    Open AccessDaniel Okyere, Edmond Kwaku Ocloo et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Integrated approaches to managing co-endemic neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) of the skin within primary healthcare services are complex and require tailoring to local contexts. We describe formative research in Atwima Mponua District in Ghana’s Ashanti Region designed to inform the development of a sustainable intervention to improve access to skin NTD care. We employed a convergent, parallel, mixed-methods design, collecting data from Februar…

  • Implementation of Covid ‐19 Preventive Measures and Staff Well‐Being in a Sample of English Schools 2020‐2021

    Open AccessNeisha Sundaram, Tanya Abramsky et al.ARTICLEJournal of School Health2023

    BACKGROUND: We examined fidelity and feasibility of implementation of COVID-19 preventive measures in schools, and explored associations between adherence to these measures and staff well-being, to inform policy on sustainable implementation and staff wellbeing. METHODS: Surveys were conducted across 128 schools in England with 107 headteachers and 2698 staff-members with reference to autumn term 2020, examining school-level implementation of pre…

  • Effectiveness of community-based burden estimation to achieve elimination of lymphatic filariasis

    Open AccessHope Simpson, Daniele O Konan et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    For lymphatic filariasis (LF) elimination, endemic countries must document the burden of LF morbidity (LFM). Community-based screening (CBS) is used to collect morbidity data, but evidence demonstrating its reliability is limited. Recent pilots of CBS for LFM alongside mass drug administration (MDA) in Côte d’Ivoire suggested low LFM prevalence (2.1–2.2 per 10,000). We estimated LFM prevalence in Bongouanou District, Côte d’Ivoire, using a compar…

  • Impact of school-based malaria case management on school attendance, health and education outcomes

    Open AccessKatherine E Halliday, Stefan S Witek-McManus et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2020

    Introduction Evidence indicates children who suffer from ill-health are less likely to attend or complete schooling. Malaria is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in school-age children. However, they are less likely to receive malaria treatment at health facilities and evidence for how to improve schoolchildren’s access to care is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a programme of school-based malaria case management o…

  • Development and application of an electronic treatment register

    Open AccessWilliam E Oswald, David S Kennedy et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2020

    We developed an electronic treatment register for the DeWorm3 Project, a cluster-randomised, controlled trial in Benin, India, and Malawi testing the feasibility of interrupting transmission of soil-transmitted helminths through community-wide mass drug administration. The electronic treatment register was designed in xlsform, deployed via the SurveyCTO mobile data collection platform, and implemented on smartphones running the Android operating …

  • Design, implementation and evaluation of a training programme for school teachers in the use of malaria rapid diagnostic tests as part of a basic first aid kit in southern Malawi

    Open AccessStefan Witek-McManus, Don P Mathanga et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    Following training, teachers are able to competently use RDTs and ACTs test and treat children at school for uncomplicated malaria safely and accurately. Teachers demonstrate a comparable level of RDT use relative to non-health professional users of RDTs, and sustain this competency over a period of seven months during routine implementation
