Building equitable health partnerships
The traditional paradigms in global health, often characterized by power imbalances similar to the racial disparities between White and Black populations, are insufficient for addressing the complex health challenges of the 21st century. These disparities not only exist within national borders but also mirror the limitations of the North–South paradigm on an international scale. This framework perpetuates systemic inequalities, undermines local a…
Rethinking body representations in autism across cultures
questionnaires and evaluations have primarily been developed in a limited set of developed nations, including France (10,11), Saudi Arabia (15,19), Japan (13), the USA (14), the UK (15), Sweden (16) and Austria (17). This concentration in developed countries restricts the applicability of these tools. Despite cultural commonalities, biased assessments overlook global BR diversity, neglecting many cultures and hindering autism diagnosis and suppor…

Introduction: Addressing the challenges of an ageing population and increasing chronic conditions necessitates a transformative shift in healthcare. It involves moving away from a service-oriented model and adopting an integrated care approach emphasizing prevention. Research underscores the positive impact of regular physical activity (PA) on older adults' physical, cognitive, and mental well-being. The World Health Organization recommends at le…

Harnessing digital health interventions to bridge the gap in prevention for older adults
The current global population of older adults is undergoing a notable and swift growth, which presents substantial health-related obstacles to public health systems on a global scale (1). The anticipated doubling of the aging population by 2050 has resulted in an increased incidence of age-related illnesses, including falls, sarcopenia, and dementia (2). The health issues associated with aging not only have a significant impact on the overall wel…
Does ethnicity influence dementia, stroke and mortality risk? Evidence from the UK Biobank
Introduction: The number of people with dementia and stroke is increasing worldwide. There is increasing evidence that there are clinically relevant genetic differences across ethnicities. This study aims to quantify risk factors of dementia, stroke, and mortality in Asian and black participants compared to whites. Methods: = 2,358, 0.84%) participants. Cumulative incidence risk was calculated based on all incident cases occurring during the foll…
Promoting physical activity and a healthy active lifestyle in community-dwelling older adults
Background: Physical activity (PA) has wide-ranging, and well documented benefits for older adults, encompassing physical, cognitive, and mental well-being. The World Health Organization advocates for a minimum of 150-300 min of moderate intensity PA per week, supplemented by muscle-strengthening exercises. However, the rates of PA among older adults remain a concern. While portable technologies hold promises in promoting PA, sustaining long-term…
Mobile health solutions
Mobile health (mHealth) development has advanced rapidly, indicating promise as an effective patient intervention. mHealth has many potential benefits that could help the treatment of patients, and the development of rehabilitation in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). mHealth is a low-cost option that does not need rapid access to healthcare clinics or employees. It increases the feasibility and rationality of clinical treatment expectati…
Physical Activity Level, Barriers, and Facilitators for Exercise Engagement for Chronic Community-Dwelling Stroke Survivors in Low-Income Settings
After a stroke incident, physical inactivity is common. People with stroke may perceive several barriers to performing physical activity (PA). This study aimed to document the PA level and understand the barriers and facilitators to engaging in PA for community-dwelling stroke survivors in Benin, a lower middle-income country. A cross-sectional study was conducted in three hospitals in Benin. Levels of PA were recorded by means of the Benin versi…
Improving public health through the development of local scientific capacity and training in rehabilitation in LMICs
The increase in life expectancy is linked, among other factors such as genetic factors, environmental factors, factors of medical conditions, socio-demographic factors, self-management, and access to care, to an increase in non-communicable diseases (NCDs) (1), which puts huge pressure on the health care systems. Cardiovascular diseases are, by far, the most common NCD in low-to middle-income countries (LMICs) (2); among these diseases, stroke is…
Development of a Medium Care Unit Using an Inexperienced Respiratory Staff
The different waves of the COVID-19 pandemic caused dramatic issues regarding the organization of care. In this context innovative solutions have to be developed in a timely manner to adapt to the organization of the care. The establishment of middle care (MC) units is a bright example of such an adaptation. A multidisciplinary MC team, including expert and non-expert respiratory health care personnel, was developed and trained to work in a COVID…
First Report on the Co-Occurrence and Clustering Profiles of Cardiovascular Lifestyle Risk Factors among Adults in Burkina Faso
The co-occurrence of cardiovascular risk factors is usually associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or cancer. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of the co-occurrence and its determinants and to identify the clustering profiles of lifestyle risk factors among the adult population in Burkina Faso. Among 4692 participants, 4377 adults from the first STEPS survey conducted in Burkina Faso were considered in this analy…
Can Mobile Technology Help Prevent the Burden of Dementia in Low- and Mid-Income Countries
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the global population aged above 60 years will double in size by 2050, with an estimated total of about 2 billion people. The increase in life expectancy, combined with unhealthy behaviors and physical inactivity (1), is linked to an increase in non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Additionally, related to aging but not yet considered to be an NCD is cognitive decline, which is an important medical c…
Tobacco use and associated risk factors in Burkina Faso
Tobacco use is common in Burkina Faso. To effectively reduce tobacco use in Burkina Faso, a comprehensive tobacco control program should consider associated factors, such as gender, age, and alcohol consumption
