Economic evaluation of caregiver interventions for children with developmental disabilities
Globally, families with children with developmental disabilities (DDs) experience challenges, including social isolation, stigma, and poverty, especially in low-income settings in Africa.

Association between psychosis and substance use in Kenya. Findings from the NeuroGAP-Psychosis study
The findings of this study suggest that psychotic illnesses are associated with an increased likelihood of using various substances. These findings are consistent with those of previous studies; however, it is crucial to investigate further the potential for reverse causality between psychosis and substance abuse using genetically informed methods

While there were no group differences in total correct, perseverative errors, nor maximum error run, a significant percentage of children were unabl…
