    Open AccessCatherine Staton, Catherine A Staton et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Alcohol use is associated with 3 million annual deaths globally. Harmful alcohol use, which is associated with a high burden of disease in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), often increases the probability of traumatic injury. Treatments for harmful alcohol use in LMICs, such as Tanzania, lack trained personnel and adequate infrastructure. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using SMS boosters to augment a hospital based…

  • Preventing Alcohol-Related Harm in East Africa

The high burden of hypertension- and diabetes-related hospitalizations highlights the urgent need for improve…

However more investments in are necessary to improve small hospitals capabilities to fill this gap

  • The epidemiology of road traffic injury hotspots in Kigali, Rwanda from police data

    Open AccessAnjni Patel, Elizabeth Krebs et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2016

    Despite significant headway by the government in RTC prevention, there continue to be high rates of RTIs in Rwanda, specifically with young males and a vulnerable road user population, such as pedestrians and motorcycle users. Improvements in police data and reporting by laypersons could prove valuable for further geographic information system analysis and efforts towards crash prevention and targeting education to motorcycle taxis could help red…
