  • Imported malaria in Cabo Verde (2010–2024)

    Open AccessAdilson José DePina, Giovanni Leite Lima et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Cabo Verde was officially certified malaria-free by the World Health Organization (WHO), following sustained public health interventions and strategic malaria elimination efforts. The country’s National Strategic Plan (2020–2024) emphasized strengthening epidemiological and entomological surveillance at the archipelago’s entry points (e.g., ports and airports), alongside early diagnosis and case investigation to prevent local transmission. Howeve…

  • Stochastic treatment regimes in climate-health research

    Open AccessJuan David Gutiérrez, Huong Lan Thi Nguyen et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Malaria remains a significant public health challenge, mainly because climate change is altering transmission dynamics. This study investigates the relationship between rising temperatures and malaria cases across the 100 municipalities in Colombia with the highest incidence from 2007 to 2023. We employed causal machine learning techniques to analyze how incremental temperature impacts malaria incidence while controlling for valid confounding var…

  • Hybrid models combining trend and seasonality components with machine learning algorithms provide accurate forecasting of malaria incidence

    Open AccessSyed Shah Areeb Hussain, Sanchit Bedi et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Forecasting malaria incidence is vital for effective resource allocation during malaria elimination. In this study, we highlight robust models for forecasting incidence using climatic and malaria data from Goa, India. Multi-collinearity and Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) were used to identify most important predictors of malaria transmission among 15 climatic variables. Three machine-learning models (Support vector machines, Random Forest, …

  • Cyclone Freddy and its impact on maternal health service utilisation

    Open AccessHussein H Twabi, James Jafali et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Climate change poses a significant threat to women’s health in sub-Saharan Africa , yet the impact of climate change on maternal health is rarely reported in the region . Using an existing Maternal Surveillance Platform (MATSurvey) , we estimated the immediate impact of Cyclone Freddy on maternal health care service indicators in Malawi . We analysed facility-level data for pregnant women up to 42 weeks post-partum using the national MATSurvey da…

  • Ecological-level factors associated with tuberculosis incidence and mortality

    Open AccessAlemneh Mekuriaw Liyew, Archie C A Clements et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Globally, tuberculosis (TB) is the leading infectious cause of morbidity and mortality, with the risk of infection affected by both individual and ecological-level factors. While systematic reviews on individual-level factors exist, there are currently limited studies examining ecological-level factors associated with TB incidence and mortality. This study was conducted to identify ecological factors associated with TB incidence and mortality. A …

  • Household preparedness for emergencies during Covid-19 pandemic among the general population of Nepal

    Open AccessSalina Shrestha, Rabin Malla et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy affecting numerous people’s livelihoods. Despite preventive behaviors and advancements of vaccination, the risk of infection still exists due to the emergence of new variants of concern and the changing behavior of the SARS CoV-2 virus. Therefore, preparedness measures are crucial for any emergency. In such situations, it is important to understand preparedness behavior at the house…

  • Disparities in kidney care in vulnerable populations

    Open AccessRobin L Erickson, Nivedita Kamath et al.EDITORARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Vulnerable populations, such as the elderly, children, displaced people, and refugees, often encounter challenges in accessing healthcare. In this study, we used data from the third iteration of the International Society of Nephrology Global Kidney Health Atlas (ISN-GKHA) to describe kidney care access and delivery to vulnerable populations across countries and regions. Using data from an international survey of clinicians, policymakers, and pati…

  • Global burden of 369 diseases and injuries in 204 countries and territories, 1990–2019

    Open AccessTheo Vos, Stephen S Lim et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2020

    BACKGROUND: In an era of shifting global agendas and expanded emphasis on non-communicable diseases and injuries along with communicable diseases, sound evidence on trends by cause at the national level is essential. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) provides a systematic scientific assessment of published, publicly available, and contributed data on incidence, prevalence, and mortality for a mutually exclusive…

  • Global, regional, and national age-sex-specific mortality and life expectancy, 1950–2017

    Open AccessDaniel Dicker, Grant Nguyen et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2018

    BACKGROUND: Assessments of age-specific mortality and life expectancy have been done by the UN Population Division, Department of Economics and Social Affairs (UNPOP), the United States Census Bureau, WHO, and as part of previous iterations of the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD). Previous iterations of the GBD used population estimates from UNPOP, which were not derived in a way that was internally consistent wit…
