Prayas
Purpose: The PRAYAS Individual Patient Data Meta-analysis (IPD-MA) database aims to estimate the prevalence of anemia among children under 18 years, non-pregnant and non-lactating (NPNL) women, and pregnant women (by trimester), with further stratification by age group, year, and region of India. Beyond prevalence, it seeks to address the etiological contribution of iron and other erythropoietic micronutrient deficiencies and to evaluate the effe…
Assessing Covid-19 seroprevalence and vaccine uptake among women of reproductive-age in Zanzibar’s archipelago
Recent events in public health globally have created a need for response by public health researchers in all disciplines to evaluate impact on health, morbidity and mortality of the COVID-19 pandemic that has engulfed the world after 100 years of previous influenza pandemic. Most of the immediate responses, globally; have focused on diagnosis and management of severe cases. However, for evolution of policies dealing with population health in the …
The Dialogic Health Systems Research Framework (DHSRF)
Health Systems Research (HSR) has witnessed significant progress in theory, methodology and practice over the last two decades. The complexity of health systems has allowed for diverse lenses for HSR. However, given the absence of dialogue between the different streams of HSR, the diversity of this field, perhaps its greatest strength, is turning out to be quite the challenge. Without a common language that enables researcher interaction and crit…
Sustainability and livelihood of small-scale handicraft producers in India
Dhokra art, a unique non-ferrous metal casting technique integral to the lost wax process, is not just an art form but a treasure that embodies India's rich cultural heritage. This small-scale handicraft sector holds immense economic, social and cultural potential despite the challenges. This study was conducted in a community dominated by Dhokra artisans in Kondagaon district, Bastar division of Chhattisgarh, India. The study was conducted throu…
Female body-corporeal as both the aetiological site and the site of resistance
The hegemonic discourse of normalcy perpetuates unfavourable portrayals of mental illness; it distorts our understanding of the sufferer's existential and affective experiences. However, mental illness is a multifaceted phenomenon; it necessitates a holistic understanding of how an individual's identity and personhood are emplaced at the intersection of the diverse sociocultural conditions. The article conceptualizes manic depression as a complex…
Identity in corporeality
The identity of a disabled individual is inextricably knitted with socio-culturally prescribed gender roles and heteronormative postulates of sexuality. The present article scrutinizes the complex interplay of disability and masculinity in two Indian films- Bhansali's Guzaarish (2010) and Basu's Barfi! (2012). In Guzaarish, illusionist Ethan, rendered quadriplegic after an unfortunate accident, willfully resists perceiving manhood beyond the role…
Questioning global health in the times of Covid-19
The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic and the inequitable response to it has created a space for rethinking the knowledge translation that informs current health policy formulation and planning. Wide recognition of the failure of global health governance and national health systems has led to calls for reviving the Primary Health Care (PHC) agenda for post-COVID health systems development. Despite the joint international declaration on PHC made fou…
Machine learning prediction of gestational age from metabolic screening markers resistant to ambient temperature transportation
Background: Knowledge of gestational age is critical for guiding preterm neonatal care. In the last decade, metabolic gestational dating approaches emerged in response to a global health need; because in most of the developing world, accurate antenatal gestational age estimates are not feasible. These methods initially developed in North America have now been externally validated in two studies in developing countries, however, require shipment o…
Using Amanhi-ACT cohorts for external validation of Iowa new-born metabolic profiles based models for postnatal gestational age estimation
BACKGROUND: Globally, 15 million infants are born preterm and another 23.2 million infants are born small for gestational age (SGA). Determining burden of preterm and SGA births, is essential for effective planning, modification of health policies and targeting interventions for reducing these outcomes for which accurate estimation of gestational age (GA) is crucial. Early pregnancy ultrasound measurements, last menstrual period and post-natal ne…
