Black youth experiencing homelessness and criminal justice involvement
Youth homelessness and involvement with the criminal justice system (CJS) are deeply interconnected in Canada, with Black youth disproportionately affected due to systemic and structural inequities. While research on race, gender, and the CJS is growing, the specific experiences of Black youth facing housing precarity remain underexplored. This paper investigates the relationship between Black youth homelessness and CJS involvement using data fro…
Promoting lifestyle changes in patients with prediabetes from African-Caribbean backgrounds in the United Kingdom
OBJECTIVES: Diabetes is a non-communicable disease where the patient's glucose level in the blood is too high. Diabetes is prevalent among ethnic minority groups in the United Kingdom (UK). Type 2 diabetes is a major cause of premature mortality in England. Unfortunately, the lifestyle of these minority groups has become a barrier to diabetes healthcare treatment. The timely intervention of programmes targeting risk factors associated with diabet…
Activity limitations and participation restrictions among people with non-communicable diseases in Ghana
Anecdotal evidence suggests that non-communicable diseases (NCDs) contribute substantially to mortality, morbidity and disability in Ghana. Nonetheless, no data are presently available on Ghanaians with disability from major NCDs, such as hypertension, diabetes and stroke. Using data from the 2007/2008 Ghana World Health Organization Study on Global Ageing and Adult Health (SAGE) and applying ordinary least squares techniques, the prevalence of a…

Risk factors for Caesarean sections in Ghana
A Caesarean section can be a life-saving intervention in case of pregnancy complications or difficult labour. The prevalence of Caesarean section continues to increase, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, yet the reasons for this remain largely unexplored. This study investigated risk factors contributing to the decision to perform Caesarean sections in Ghana using data from 8645 women aged 15–49 years from the 2017 Ghana Maternal Health Survey. Th…
Determinants of Low Birth Weight in Ghana
Examining the effects of individual and neighbourhood socioeconomic status/wealth on hypertension among women in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana
Hypertension is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among women in sub-Saharan Africa. Although research on the relationship between individual-level socioeconomic status (SES) and hypertension exists, to the best of our knowledge, limited empirical studies examined the effects of neighbourhood-level SES/wealth on the risks of living with hypertension in Ghana. Using data from the 2009 Women's Health Study of Accra (WHSA-II), and…
The Impact of Foreign Aid on Maternal Mortality
In 2010, the G8 placed renewed focus on maternal health via the Muskoka Initiative by committing to spend an additional $5 billion on maternal, newborn, and child health before 2015. Following the end of the Millennium Development Goals and the advent of the Sustainable Development Goals, maternal health issues have continued to feature prominently on the global health agenda. Despite these substantial investments of foreign aid over the past dec…
Occupational Types and Antenatal Care Attendance Among Women in Ghana
Improving antenatal care is considered a priority and has been relevant toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), yet antenatal care attendance remains relatively low in Ghana. Guided by the Andersen and Newman framework and employing logit models, we examine associations between occupational types and antenatal care among Ghanaian women aged 15-49. Type of occupation, conceptualized as a predisposing factor, has a significant imp…
