    Open AccessMona Abdo, Ernest Kanyomse et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    ClinicalTrials.gov (National Institutes of Health); Trial Registration Number: NCT04633135 ; Date of Registration: 11 November 2020 - Retrospectively registered. URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04633135?term=NCT04633135&draw=2&rank=1

  • Socio-demographic and behavioural determinants of body mass index among an adult population in rural Northern Ghana

    Open AccessEngelbert A Nonterah, Cornelius Debpuur et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2018

    BACKGROUND: Obesity and associated cardiometabolic diseases are increasing in urban sub-Saharan Africa due to a complex epidemiological and nutritional transition. Related data on rural communities is scarce. OBJECTIVES: The study characterized the socio-demographic and behavioural factors influencing body mass index (BMI) among adults in rural Northern Ghana Methods: A population-based cross-sectional study involving adults aged 40-60 years resi…

  • Prices, peers, and perceptions (P3)

  • Determinants of attending antenatal care at least four times in rural Ghana

    Open AccessEvelyn Sakeah, Sumiyo Okawa et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2017

    BACKGROUND: Improving maternal health is a global challenge. In Ghana, maternal morbidity and mortality rates remain high, particularly in rural areas. Antenatal care (ANC) attendance is known to improve maternal health. However, few studies have updated current knowledge regarding determinants of ANC attendance. OBJECTIVE: This study examined factors associated with ANC attendance in predominantly rural Ghana. METHODS: We conducted a cross-secti…

  • Monitoring malaria using health facility based surveys

    Open AccessAbraham Oduro, Abraham Rexford Oduro et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2016

    Health facility based survey though a potential tool for monitoring changes in the local epidemiology of malaria will require continuous validation of the facility and participants sociodemograhic characteristics as these may change over time. The effects of health seeking practices on service utilization and health facility surveys as an approach will also need continuous review

  • Research on Emissions, Air quality, Climate, and Cooking Technologies in Northern Ghana (REACCTING)

    Open AccessKatherine L Dickinson, Ernest Kanyomse et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    REACCTING is well-poised to generate useful data on the impact of a cookstove intervention on a wide range of outcomes. By comparing different technologies side by side and employing an interdisciplinary approach to study this issue from multiple perspectives, this study may help to inform future efforts to improve health and quality of life for populations currently relying on open fires for their cooking needs

  • A time series analysis of weather variables and all-cause mortality in the Kasena-Nankana Districts of Northern Ghana, 1995–2010

    Open AccessDaniel Azongo, Daniel K Azongo et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2012

    INTRODUCTION: Climate and weather variability can have significant health consequences of increased morbidity and mortality. However, today the impact of climate and weather variability, and consequentially, of climate change on population health in sub-Saharan Africa is not well understood. In this study, we assessed the association of daily temperature and precipitation with daily mortality by age and sex groups in Northern Ghana. METHODS: We a…
