  • Integrating social protection and occupational health services

    Open AccessNathalie Both, Mariétou Niang et al.ARTICLEInternational Social Security…2025References: 2

    Human health is shaped by physiological factors and by social, environmental, behavioural, and political conditions. Annually, occupational risks are a major contributor to a significant number of avoidable deaths and disability‐adjusted life‐years. Addressing such determinants requires action beyond the health sector, with increasing recognition of the value of multisectoral approaches to achieving health equity. Social protection and occupation…

  • Exploring relationships between HIV programme outcomes and the societal enabling environment

    Open AccessDejan Lončar, José Antonio Izazola-Licea et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Countries worldwide have attempted to reduce the incidence of HIV and AIDS associated deaths with varying success, despite significant progress in antiretroviral treatment (ART) and condom use. A chief obstacles is that key populations affected face high levels of stigma, discrimination and exclusion, limiting the successful response to HIV. However, a gap exists in studies demonstrating the moderation effects of societal enablers on overall prog…

  • Hospital and community care costs for people newly diagnosed of living with HIV in London, UK

    E J Beck, Dejan Lončar et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2023

    This study of people newly diagnosed of living with HIV (ND-PLHIV) calculated the use, cost and outcome of HIV services at a London HIV centre. ND-PLHIV were followed July 2017-October 2018. Hospital data included inpatient days (IP), outpatient (OP), dayward (DW) visits, tests and procedures, and anti-retroviral drugs (ARVs). Community services were recorded in daily diaries. Mean per patient-year (MPPY) use was multiplied by unit costs. 13.6 MP…

  • Determinants of government HIV/Aids financing

    Open AccessCarlos Ávila, Dejan Lončar et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    Domestic resources in low- and middle-income countries showed a threefold increase between 2000 and 2010 and currently support 50 percent of the global response with 41 percent coming from sub-Saharan Africa. Domestic spending in LMICs was associated with increased economic growth and an increased burden of HIV. Sustained increases in funding for HIV from public sources were observed in all regions and emphasize the increasing importance of gover…

  • Projections of Global Mortality and Burden of Disease from 2002 to 2030

    Open AccessClay Mathers, Colin D Mathers et al.ARTICLEPLoS Medicine2006

    BACKGROUND: Global and regional projections of mortality and burden of disease by cause for the years 2000, 2010, and 2030 were published by Murray and Lopez in 1996 as part of the Global Burden of Disease project. These projections, which are based on 1990 data, continue to be widely quoted, although they are substantially outdated; in particular, they substantially underestimated the spread of HIV/AIDS. To address the widespread demand for info…
