  • Dietary diversity and associated factors among pregnant women in Ethiopia

    Open AccessZenebu Begna Bayissa, Tsinuel Girma et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2025

    Background: Dietary diversity (DD) is the consumption of a variety of different and healthy foods that promote an adequate supply of nutrients, a high-quality diet, and the maintenance of optimal health. It is critical to identify the factors that influence pregnant women's eating habits so that relevant interventions can be developed. We estimated the pooled odds ratio of appropriate dietary practices to identify factors that affect the dietary …

  • Magnitude and determinants of excess total, age-specific and sex-specific all-cause mortality in 24 countries worldwide during 2020 and 2021

    Open AccessChryso Th Pallari, Souzana Achilleo et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2024

    INTRODUCTION: To examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mortality, we estimated excess all-cause mortality in 24 countries for 2020 and 2021, overall and stratified by sex and age. METHODS: Total, age-specific and sex-specific weekly all-cause mortality was collected for 2015-2021 and excess mortality for 2020 and 2021 was calculated by comparing weekly 2020 and 2021 age-standardised mortality rates against expected mortality, estimated b…

  • Perinatal depression and adverse child growth outcomes in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs)

    Open AccessElizabeth Carosella, Shradha Chhabria et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Perinatal depression (PND), which encompasses the antepartum and postpartum depression (APD and PPD), is a neglected crisis in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We aimed to systematically search and meta-analyze existing evidence to determine whether a mother’s PND affects adverse growth outcomes in children in LMICs (PROSPERO protocol: CRD42021246803). We conducted searches, including nine databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science,…

  • Evidence of interactive effects of late-pregnancy exposure to air pollution and extreme temperature on preterm birth in China

    Open AccessXiang Xiao, Ruixia Liu et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2023

    Perinatal exposure to heat and air pollution has been shown to affect the risk of preterm birth (PTB). However, limited evidence exists regarding their joint effects, particularly in heavily polluted regions like China. This study utilized data from the ongoing China Birth Cohort Study, including 103 040 birth records up to December 2020, and hourly measurements of air pollution (PM 2.5 , NO 2 , and O 3 ) and temperature. We assessed the nonlinea…

  • Global Association of Air Pollution and Cardiorespiratory Diseases

    Weeberb J Requia, Matthew D Adams et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2018

    Background. Little is known about the health risks of air pollution and cardiorespiratory diseases, globally, across regions and populations, which may differ because of external factors. Objectives. We systematically reviewed the evidence on the association between air pollution and cardiorespiratory diseases (hospital admissions and mortality), including variability by energy, transportation, socioeconomic status, and air quality. Search Method…
