  • Implementation and evaluation of an insulin use manual in the public health system of a Peruvian Region

    Open AccessCecilia Anza-Ramirez, Karen Bonilla-Aguilar et al.ARTICLEBMC Medical Education2026

    BACKGROUND: Diabetes is a major public health issue, especially in low-and middle- income countries (LMICs) where barriers to care are common. Despite insulin's critical role, access remains limited due to market concentration, weak policies, poor availability, and lack of trained staff.

  • Association Between Relative Leg Length and Insulin Resistance in Rural, Urban and Rural–Urban Migrant Populations of Peru

    Open AccessSergio Mucching‐Toscano, Miguel Moscoso‐porra et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology2025

    OBJECTIVE: To determine the association between relative leg length and insulin resistance according to rural, urban, and rural-urban migrant groups. METHODS: Cross-sectional study using data from the PERU MIGRANT study (2007-2008). The exposure was relative leg length categorized as short, normal, or long, and the outcome was insulin resistance (logarithm of homeostatic model assessment log-HOMA2-IR). Linear regression models with log transforma…

  • Core outcome sets for trials of interventions to prevent and to treat multimorbidity in adults in low and middle-income countries

    Open AccessAishwarya Lakshmi Vidyasagaran, Rubab Ayesha et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2024

    INTRODUCTION: The burden of multimorbidity is recognised increasingly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), creating a strong emphasis on the need for effective evidence-based interventions. Core outcome sets (COS) appropriate for the study of multimorbidity in LMICs do not presently exist. These are required to standardise reporting and contribute to a consistent and cohesive evidence-base to inform policy and practice. We describe the de…

  • Associations between urban greenspace and depressive symptoms in Mexico's cities using different greenspace metrics

    Open AccessMaryia Bakhtsiyarava, Y Ju et al.ARTICLEApplied Geography2024

    Greenspace has been shown to be positively associated with mental wellbeing, but studies from the global South have been scarce. We advance the understanding of the relationship between greenspace and depressive symptoms by using multiple clearly defined metrics describing neighborhood greenness and urban parks in an understudied region with rapid urban growth. We linked individual-level health survey data for urban residents in Mexico (n = 17,25…
