Interdisciplinary collaborative skill development in a health research training program in Zambia
Sexual and reproductive health research capacity strengthening programs in low- and middle-income countries
Sexual and reproductive health (SRH) research capacity strengthening (RCS) programs in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are needed to foster the discovery of context-specific solutions to improve patient outcomes and population health. There remains a limited understanding of SRH research strengthening programs to raise skill sets, publications, and infrastructure and ultimately influence health policy and patient outcomes in LMICs.

Scoping review of qualitative studies on family planning in Uganda
Family planning (FP) is an essential component of public health programs and significantly impacts maternal and child health outcomes. In Uganda, there is a need for a comprehensive review of the existing literature on FP to inform future research and programmatic efforts. This scoping review aims to identify factors shaping the use of FP in Uganda. We conducted a systematic search of eight scholarly databases, for qualitative studies on FP in Ug…
Lessons learnt from a scientific peer-review training programme designed to support research capacity and professional development in a global community
High-quality peer-reviewer training open to researchers across the globe has the potential to improve the published literature, however, this type of training is not widely available. In this paper, we describe an online peer-reviewer training programme, highlight its effectiveness in building peer review and writing skills, and discuss challenges and lessons learnt. This training programme, open to researchers across the globe, acquaints partici…

The aim of this study was to explore the perception of stigmatization for adults with SCD in Kumasi, Ghana. METHODOLOGY: Using in-depth qualitative interviews, researchers conducted a phenomenological study to inve…

Operationalization of the Ecological Systems Theory to Guide the Study of Cultural Practices and Beliefs of Newborn Care in Rural Zambia
Introduction: A wide gap in knowledge exists about the factors associated with newborn care in rural Zambia. In this year of the nurse and midwife, the purpose of this article is to provide transcultural researchers with an example of how Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory (EST) can be used to guide an exploration of the cultural practices, knowledge, and beliefs of newborn care and health-seeking behaviors in rural Zambia. Methodology: B…
Maternal knowledge of essential newborn care in rural Zambia
Maternity waiting homes (MWHs) may offer an intervention to improve newborn outcomes in rural Zambia. This study compared maternal knowledge of newborn care for women referred from facilities with and without MWHs. Topics assessed included: (1) umbilical cord care; (2) thermal and skin care; (3) nutrition, and; (4) prevention of diarrhea, and; (5) newborn danger signs prompting care-seeking. A two-group comparison design with a convenience sample…
