Systemic Moral Injury in Health Systems
Moral injury is commonly used to describe the ethical and emotional distress experienced by clinicians who are repeatedly required to act in ways that conflict with their moral commitments within constrained systems. While this concept has helped shift attention away from individual burnout, it has remained largely focused on personal experience. This analysis suggests that moral injury can also arise at the level of health systems themselves. He…
Prevalence and Clinical Profile of Adults with ADHD Attending a Tertiary Care Hospital for Five Years
(1) Objectives: This study aimed to assess the 5-year prevalence and clinical profile of attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) among adult patients seeking care in a tertiary care hospital in Oman. (2) Methods: The data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics and standardised prevalence estimates were calculated. (3) Results: Of the 39,881 hospital visits, 1.77% were made by adults with ADHD. This is equivalent to 17.8 …
The case for investing in the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases in the six countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council
BACKGROUND: While the non-communicable disease (NCD) burden in the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates) has surged over the past decades, the costs and return on investment (ROI) of implementing cost-effective, WHO-recommended NCD interventions have not been established. METHODS: We performed an economic analysis to estimate the ROI from scaling up four sets of N…

Individual-level determinants of waterpipe smoking demand in four Eastern-Mediterranean countries
The prevalence of waterpipe tobacco smoking in the Eastern Mediterranean Region is at alarmingly high levels, especially among young people. The objective of this research was to evaluate the preferences of young adult waterpipe smokers with respect to potential individual-level determinants of waterpipe smoking using discrete choice experiment methodology. Participants were young adult university students (18–29 years) who were ever waterpipe sm…
Correlates of physical activity and sitting time in adults with type 2 diabetes attending primary health care in Oman
The results suggest that intervention strategies should take account of gender, age, opportunities within daily life to promote active behaviour and readiness to change. Offering physical activity consultations is of interest to this study population, thus development and evaluation of interventions are warranted
