The economic cost of outpatient primary care of adults with multimorbidity (HIV, diabetes, and hypertension) in rural South Africa
Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is experiencing an epidemiological transition where non-communicable diseases are becoming the leading cause of disability and mortality alongside infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Multimorbidity, the coexistence of two or more long-term conditions, is increasing in SSA. However, the cost of managing multimorbidity is largely unknown. This study aimed to estimate the economic cost of public outpatient primary care for…
Field Lessons From the Delivery of Questionnaires to Young Adults Using Mobile Phones
To examine the feasibility of providing young adults with mobile phones for the purpose of mobile phone–assisted self-interviewing to improve retention in a long-term birth cohort study, mobile phones with survey software were distributed to 1,000 twenty-year-olds in the Birth to Twenty birth cohort study. Eleven months later, a targeted sampling frame was used to randomly select 435 participants from the subset of 734 phones that were still func…

The HDSS (90 000 people), based on an annual update of resident status and vital events, now supports multiple investigations into the causes and consequences of complex health, population a…
Public health initiatives in South Africa in the 1940s and 1950s
Inspiration drawn from South African public health initiatives in the 1940s played an important role in the development of the network of community and migrant health centers in the United States. The first such center at Pholela in Natal emphasized the need for a comprehensive (preventive and curative) service that based its practices on empirical data derived from epidemiological and anthropological research. In addition, community consultation…
Planning professional education at schools of public health
OBJECTIVES. Professional education in public health should equip graduates with adequate knowledge and skills to manage diverse and complex problems. How best to address this challenge is widely debated. We describe the Harvard School of Public Health's self-evaluation and development of a practice-oriented program. METHODS. As part of Harvard's schoolwide review of the master of public health (MPH), self-administered questionnaires were distribu…
