Predictors of alcohol use disorder in patients with hypertension
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is often discovered very late or not at all, with a risk of undertreatment. High alcohol consumption may lead to hypertension. and hypertensive patients should be asked about their alcohol use. Our aim was to look at additional risk factors for receiving a diagnosis of AUD in patients with hypertension. Using the Norwegian full coverage patient registry, we investigated all patients who received an ICD-10 diagnosis of h…
Resilience and mental health among children and youth with an immigrant background in Europe
Resilience is measured and conceptualized inconsistently in immigrant youth in Europe. • Most studies use proxy measures of resilience rather than direct assessment tools. • Many studies categorize immigrant background as risk without measuring stress. • Few studies examine all three resilience domains: individual, relational, and contextual. • Longitudinal studies are needed to better capture resilience processes over time. A significant and gro…
Corona virus vaccine hesitancy among higher education students in Adama City, Oromia, Ethiopia
Background Vaccination stands as the most efficient approach for managing the continued transmission of infections and preventing the emergence of novel variants. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine hesitancy poses a significant burden in the fight to achieve herd immunity. Methods A cross-sectional study, based on institutional parameters, was conducted among a cohort of 530 higher education students, selected via a simple random samplin…
Over-the-counter analgesics use is associated with pain and psychological distress among adolescents
Sex, pain and anxiety and depression are inter-correlated and strong predictors of frequent OTCA use. Frequent OTCA use in the context of psychological distress may be a form of self-medication that can exacerbate symptoms and decrease psychosocial function. Longitudinal studies that explore causal trajectories between frequent on-label OTCA use and psychological distress are required. OTCA use among adolescents, and particularly among females, w…
The relationship between caregivers' feeding practices and children's eating behaviours among preschool children in Ethiopia
Preschool age is a time when distinct eating behaviours are formed. Eating behaviours have been associated with underweight and poor growth as well as with overweight. However, the relationship between caregivers' feeding practices and children's eating behaviours remains poorly understood in developing countries. This study aims to evaluate the association between caregivers' feeding practices and eating behaviours among preschool children in Et…
Use of outpatient mental healthcare services and upper-secondary school completion in young women with migrant background – A population-based study
Mental disorders typically develop during adolescence, with young women being particularly at risk. Mental disorders during this period can negatively affect both current and future life prospects such as school completion. Migrants are at increased risk of developing mental disorders as a result of their experiences prior to, during and after migration. Additionally, they are less likely to complete upper-secondary school when compared to the ma…
Individual-level changes in self-rated health before and during the economic crisis in Europe
The current economic crisis accounts for an increasing trend in fair and poor SRH among the general working-age population of Europe. Despite the general SES inequalities in SRH, the health of vulnerable groups has been affected the same way before and during the current recession
Mental health problems among individuals with persistent health challenges from adolescence to young adulthood
This longitudinal survey revealed that on average, adolescents with disability had more mental health problems than those with a chronic health condition. In addition, the problems followed into adulthood for adolescents with disability. Thus, disability seems to be a much higher risk factor for developing and maintaining mental health problems than having a chronic health condition. These findings need to be followed up in further studies

Livestock mortality in pastoralist herds in Ethiopia and implications for drought response
Participatory epidemiology methods were employed retrospectively in three pastoralist regions of Ethiopia to estimate the specific causes of excess livestock mortality during drought. The results showed that starvation/dehydration accounted for between 61.5 and 100 per cent of excess livestock mortality during drought, whereas disease‐related mortality accounted for between 0 and 28.1 per cent of excess mortality. Field observations indicate that…
Binge eating, purging and non-purging compensatory behaviours decrease from adolescence to adulthood
Individuals affected by purging need to be targeted as a high-risk group. The distinction in severity among the subclinical ED may indicate the need for the reformulation of the eating disorder not otherwise specified category in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-V
Regional inequality and vaccine uptake
The persistent regional inequalities suggest that the low immunization coverage in Malawi is less likely to be a result of geographical clustering of social groups with difficult level-of living conditions. Although the mean vaccine coverage in Malawi is low, some regions have succeeded in reaching a relatively high proportion of their children. The relative success of some regions implies that there is a substantial potential for political inter…
Impact of drought-related vaccination on livestock mortality in pastoralist areas of Ethiopia
Under a national Livestock Policy Forum in Ethiopia the impact of livestock vaccination during drought was assessed in order to inform the development of a best-practice guideline. For each of the different types of vaccine used during drought years there was no significant difference in livestock mortality, for any species, in vaccinated compared with non-vaccinated herds. The limited impact of vaccination on livestock mortality was attributed t…
Impact of a commercial destocking relief intervention in Moyale district, southern Ethiopia
A commercial destocking intervention was piloted in southern Ethiopia during the drought of early 2006. The intervention led to the purchase of an estimated 20,000 cattle valued at USD 1.01 million. On average, destocked households received USD 186 from the sale of cattle-approximately 5,405 households were involved. In terms of aid investment, the approximate cost-benefit ratio was 41:1. During the drought, income from destocking accounted for 5…
