Untreated, uncontrolled and below-target hypertension in southern Africa
INTRODUCTION: Hypertension programmes have expanded substantially in low-income and middle-income countries, yet treatment and control rates remain insufficient. Programme scale-up may lead to suboptimal health outcomes and resource allocation if diagnostic accuracy, monitoring and treatment protocol adherence are inadequate. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of untreated, uncontrolled and below-target hypertension in rural Lesotho, and…
Awareness, treatment, and control among adults living with arterial hypertension or diabetes mellitus in two rural districts in Lesotho
In Lesotho, the hypertension and diabetes care cascades are unknown. We measured awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension and diabetes among adults ≥18 years and identified factors associated with each step of the cascade, based on data from a population-based, cross-sectional survey in 120 randomly sampled clusters in the districts of Butha-Buthe and Mokhotlong from 1 st November 2021 to 31 st August 2022. We used multivariable logistic…
Prevalence of Mental Health and Substance use Problems and Awareness of Need for Services in Lesotho
We conducted a household survey among 6061 adults in Lesotho to (1) assess the prevalence of moderate/severe mental health (MH) and substance use (SU) problems (2) describe the MH and SU service cascades, and (3) assess predictors of MH and SU problem awareness (i.e., awareness of having a MH/SU problem that requires treatment). Moderate/severe MH or SU problems was reported between 0.7% for anxiety in the past 2 weeks to 36.4% for alcohol use in…
