Understanding motivating and demotivating factors among maternal healthcare professionals in Somalia
INTRODUCTION: Motivated health workers are pivotal in providing adequate health services. This study aims to understand what motivates and demotivates maternal health workers. We do so in Somalia, an understudied country in Africa with pervasive security challenges and one of the highest avoidable maternal mortality rates. METHODS: This qualitative study explores health workers' motivation in three tertiary hospitals in the capital, Mogadishu. Tw…
Study on health seeking behaviour and determinants of undiagnosed hypertension in poor households in the Philippines, part of the Respond study (SHARP-Respond)
Hypertension is one of the leading preventable causes of premature death. Although it can be effectively managed with relatively simple interventions, up to 50% of individuals with hypertension in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) remain undiagnosed. Key factors influencing the health-seeking behaviour of patients with hypertension include household wealth, knowledge about hypertension, perceptions of treatment effectiveness, and access to…
Association of socioeconomic inequality in cardiovascular disease risk with economic development across 57 low- and middle-income countries
Economic development was associated with higher and more unequal CVD risk, which may warrant shifting targeting of CVD primary prevention to socially disadvantaged groups
Effects of performance-based capitation payment on the use of public primary health care services in Indonesia
Value-Based Healthcare From the Perspective of the Healthcare Professional
Introduction: Healthcare systems increasingly move toward “value-based healthcare” (VBHC), aiming to further improve quality and performance of care as well as the sustainable use of resources. Evidence about healthcare professionals' contributions to VBHC, experienced job demands and resources as well as employee well-being in VBHC is scattered. This systematic review synthesizes this evidence by exploring how VBHC relates to the healthcare prof…

Prevalence and inequality in persistent undiagnosed, untreated, and uncontrolled hypertension
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and substantial gaps in diagnosis, treatment and control signal failure to avert premature deaths. Our aim was to estimate the prevalence and assess the socioeconomic distribution of hypertension that remained undiagnosed, untreated, and uncontrolled for at least five years among older Mexicans and to estimate rates of transition from those states to diagnosis, treatment a…
Socioeconomic inequalities in lifestyle risk factors across low- and middle-income countries
This study emphasizes the importance of lifestyle risk factors in LMICs and the socioeconomic variation therein. Given the different socioeconomic patterns in lifestyle risk factors - overweight patters in LMICs differ considerably from those in high income countries- tailored interventions towards specific high-risk populations are warranted to supplement nationwide policies
Voluntary health insurance in Nigeria
Health shocks, coping strategies and foregone healthcare among agricultural households in Kenya
Risks are a central part of life for households in low-income countries and health shocks in particular are associated with poverty. Formal mechanisms protecting households against the financial consequences of shocks are largely absent, especially among poor rural households. Our aim is to identify the relative importance of health shocks and to explore factors associated with coping behaviour and foregone care. We use a cross-sectional survey a…
Does the distribution of healthcare utilization match needs in Africa
An equitable distribution of healthcare use, distributed according to people's needs instead of ability to pay, is an important goal featuring on many health policy agendas worldwide. However, relatively little is known about the extent to which this principle is violated across socio-economic groups in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). We examine cross-country comparative micro-data from 18 SSA countries and find that considerable inequalities in health…
