Challenges and opportunities to addressing non-communicable diseases after climate-related disasters in Mozambique
INTRODUCTION: Low- and middle-income countries are facing a new double burden: an increasing frequency of extreme weather events that disrupt healthcare services for people living with non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and a rising prevalence of NCDs. In Mozambique, NCDs are the second leading cause of death among adults, and climate-related disasters, occurring with increasing intensity, exacerbate this problem. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to unde…
Addressing non-communicable disease management during disasters in the US Virgin Islands
Introduction: Extreme weather events, like hurricanes Irma and Maria, have disproportionately impacted individuals with non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI), exacerbating health disparities due to healthcare disruptions. The USVI and other Caribbean islands face increased morbidity and mortality from NCDs from rising risk factors and lack of improving in quality of care. This study explores the experiences of individ…
Food insecurity and hypertension prevalence, awareness, and control in the Eastern Caribbean Health Outcomes Research Network Study
Limited evidence exists on the association between food insecurity (FI) and the hypertension care cascade in the Caribbean despite the high burden of both. The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between FI and hypertension prevalence, awareness, and control in the Eastern Caribbean. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data (2013–2018) from the Eastern Caribbean Health Outcomes Research Network Cohort Study (n =…
The management of cholera in populations affected by conflict in Africa and the Middle-East
Cholera control in conflict settings demands a phased and evidence-based approach backed by flexible funding and prospective operational research. Prioritization should be given to immediate high-impact measures, short-term completion of two-dose vaccination and case area targeted interventions (CATIs), and long-term resilient WASH and vaccine reserves
Prevalence and associated factors of adherence to antihypertensive medication
These findings highlight the complex interplay of demographics, medication patterns, and economic factors in medication adherence with very low adherence rates in Pakistan. Targeted, context-specific interventions-addressing affordability, education, and better awareness could potentially improve the adherence rates
Faith-based leaders’ perceptions on the implementation of programs to promote healthy lifestyles in churches in Barbados- a mixed-methods analysis
We found that health-based programs in churches align well with church doctrines, but the success of these programs will depend on, equipping leaders with the skills and knowledge to engage in health-related conversations while including biblically sensitive messaging
Diabetes prevention in the Caribbean using lifestyle intervention and Metformin escalation (Lime)
clinicaltrials.gov NCT03258723 (23/08/2017)
Development of an agenda for research and action on climate change and health in the Caribbean
This paper delineates the development of the Caribbean Research for Action Agenda which aims to empower Caribbean Small Island Developing States to reduce their vulnerabilities to the effects of climate change on health. The Caribbean Research for Action Agenda emerged from collaboration between nongovernmental organizations, academic institutions, and multilateral agencies that organized a conference on climate change and health in the Caribbean…
Associations of Discrimination, Low Social Support, and Limited English Proficiency with Depression in South Asian Immigrants
Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and T2D diabetes in the Eastern Caribbean
Objective: Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) are implicated in the increasing risk of diabetes in the Caribbean. Few studies have examined associations between SSB consumption and diabetes in the Caribbean. Design: SSB was measured as teaspoon/d using questions from the National Cancer Institute Dietary Screener Questionnaire about intake of soda, juice and coffee/tea during the past month. Diabetes was measured using self-report, HbA1C and use of …
Not an ‘either/or’
Anthropometric measures of obesity and associated cardiovascular disease risk in the Eastern Caribbean Health Outcomes Research Network (Echorn) Cohort Study
Findings suggest that WHR is a better indicator than BMI of obesity-related CVD risk and should be used to target adults in the Caribbean, and of Caribbean-descent, for interventions
Toward Reducing Health Information Inequities in the Caribbean
Precision medicine seeks to leverage technology to improve the health for all individuals. Successful health information systems rely fundamentally on the integration and sharing of data from a range of disparate sources. In many settings, basic infrastructure inequities exist that limit the usefulness of health information systems. We discuss the work of the Yale Transdisciplinary Collaborative Center for Health Disparities focused on Precision …
Evaluating the Integrated Methadone and Anti-Retroviral Therapy Strategy in Tanzania Using the RE-AIM Framework
There are an estimated 50,000 people who inject drugs in Tanzania, with an HIV prevalence in this population of 42%. The Integrated Methadone and Anti-Retroviral Therapy (IMAT) strategy was developed to integrate HIV services into an opioid treatment program (OTP) in sub-Saharan Africa and increase anti-retroviral therapy (ART) initiation rates. In this paper, we evaluate the IMAT strategy using an implementation science framework to inform futur…
