  • Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessMartilord Ifeanyichi, Jakub Gajewski et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2021

    The Covid-19 pandemic has exacerbated the long neglect of surgical services in resource-poor countries, compounding the threat posed by the burden of surgical conditions to the achievement of especially sustainable development goals 3 (good health and wellbeing) and 1 (ending poverty) in these countries

  • How does participating in a deliberative citizens panel on healthcare priority setting influence the views of participants

    Open AccessVivian Reckers-Droog, Maarten Jansen et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy2020

    A deliberative citizens panel was held to obtain insight into criteria considered relevant for healthcare priority setting in the Netherlands. Our aim was to examine whether and how panel participation influenced participants’ views on this topic. Participants (n = 24) deliberated on eight reimbursement cases in September and October, 2017. Using Q methodology, we identified three distinct viewpoints before (T0) and after (T1) panel participation…

  • Leadership and the functioning of maternal health services in two rural district hospitals in South Africa

    Open AccessThubelihle Mathole, Martina Lembani et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2018Citada por: 3Referências: 15

    Maternal mortality remains high in Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, despite over 90% of pregnant women utilizing maternal health services. A recent survey showed wide variation in performance among districts in the province. Heterogeneity was also found at the district level, where maternal health outcomes varied considerably among district hospitals. In ongoing research, leadership emerged as one of the key health systems factors affecting t…

  • The cost of providing and scaling up surgery

    Open AccessLeon Bijlmakers, Dennis Cornelissen et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2018Referências: 21

    The lack of access to quality-assured surgery in rural parts of sub-Saharan Africa, where the numbers of trained health workers are often insufficient, presents challenges for national governments. The case for investing in scaling up surgical systems in low-resource settings is 3-fold: the potential beneficial impact on a large proportion of the global burden of disease; better access for rural populations who have the greatest unmet need; and t…

  • Local and foreign authorship of maternal health interventional research in low- and middle-income countries

    Open AccessMatthew Chersich, Matthew F Chersich et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2016

    BACKGROUND: Researchers in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are under-represented in scientific literature. Mapping of authorship of articles can provide an assessment of data ownership and research capacity in LMICs over time and identify variations between different settings. METHODS: Systematic mapping of maternal health interventional research in LMICs from 2000 to 2012, comparing country of study and of affiliation of first authors. …

  • Perspectives on the methods of a large systematic mapping of maternal health interventions

    Open AccessMatthew Chersich, Victor Becerril-Montekio et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2016

    BACKGROUND: Mapping studies describe a broad body of literature, and differ from classical systematic reviews, which assess more narrowly-defined questions and evaluate the quality of the studies included in the review. While the steps involved in mapping studies have been described previously, a detailed qualitative account of the methodology could inform the design of future mapping studies. OBJECTIVES: Describe the perspectives of a large rese…

  • Mapping of research on maternal health interventions in low- and middle-income countries

    Open AccessMatthew Chersich, Duane Blaauw et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2016

    BACKGROUND: Progress in achieving maternal health goals and the rates of reductions in deaths from individual conditions have varied over time and across countries. Assessing whether research priorities in maternal health align with the main causes of mortality, and those factors responsible for inequitable health outcomes, such as health system performance, may help direct future research. The study thus investigated whether the research done in…

  • A systematic mapping of funders of maternal health intervention research 2000-2012

    Open AccessKaty Footman, Katharine Footman et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2014

    BACKGROUND: The priorities of research funding bodies govern the research agenda, which has important implications for the provision of evidence to inform policy. This study examines the research funding landscape for maternal health interventions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). METHODS: This review draws on a database of 2340 academic papers collected through a large-scale systematic mapping of research on maternal health interventi…
