Abstract:

<strong>Abstract</strong> In fragile, conflict-affected and vulnerable settings, health care delivery is faced with challenges, affecting routine health service organization and delivery systems, escalated health needs, resourcing issues, and public health crises. Access is prioritized over quality healthcare in most circumstances with complex delivery network having multiple stakeholders. To ensure the transition from chaos to peace, the eight essential elements of strategic action planning need to be effectively rolled out. Conflict resolution requires a change of perspective from working in

Abstract:

Children and young people are disproportionately vulnerable to harm during crises, yet child public health expertise is limited in humanitarian settings and outcomes and impact data are lacking. This review characterises child public health indicators that are routinely collected, required by donors, and recommended for use in fragile, conflict-affected, and vulnerable (FCV) settings. We conducted database and grey literature searches and collected indicators from technical agencies, partnerships, donors, and nongovernmental organisations providing child public health services in FCV settings.

Introduction The spread of the corona virus (COVID-19) has an enormous psychosocial impact on humanity across the globe, resulting in an increase in mental health issues. There are no specific diagnostic instruments that could identify COVID-19 related mental health problems. In recent months, new scales have been developed to identify COVID-19 related problems. Objectives Our objective was to investigate the clinical utility of these new assessment instruments.

It explores how the evictees—hundreds of people living in “vulnerable homes”—coped with this event by relying on community ties and the process of home-making enacted in an otherwise empty setting. It also shows how the language of vulnerability was mobilized as a moral and bureaucratic resource both by public authorities, to select thos

Abstract People who inject drugs are likely to end up admitted to a hospital due to complications associated with substance use. While in hospital, many of these patients will continue the self-administration of nonprescribed drugs. When implemented without a harm reduction approach, self-administration can lead to an increase in the acquisition of infectious diseases, injection-related infections, and fatal and nonfatal overdoses. Often, administrators and providers use punitive approaches to manage this behavior among patients and providers. This abstinence-based approach has, and continues

Abstract:

Currently, the number of human casualties and damages is continuously increasing owing to increases in the daily maximum temperature and number of heat wave days caused by climate change. Therefore, considering the class vulnerable to heat waves and setting standards for the vulnerable class expected to suffer substantial damage are essential. Therefore, in terms of time and space, this study selected heatwave-vulnerable areas according to the heatwave vulnerability index, targeting cities, counties, and districts nationwide from 2010 to 2018, and performed spatial analysis using Moran's I spa

Abstract:

The treatment of microbial infections has proven challenging for humans in recent years. Synthetic medications, such as antimicrobial agents, are used for treating these infections. Antimicrobials derived from natural sources have gained popularity as an alternative to manufactured medications due to their lack of adverse effects. Plants, which play a significant role in this setting, have historically served as a reliable natural defence against several pathogens. In this study, studies on plants used against viral diseases are mentioned. Studies on viruses that cause disease have been compil

IntroductionA lot of issues have raised since the beginning of the pandemic and doctors had to learn how to deal with increasing problems of stress and anxiety. The new situation was a great threat to one’s safety and some more vulnerable people could experience a higher level of anxiety. Patients with autistic traits might be more prone to it. It is essential to find out who is more exposed and who will require additional care.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to assess the level of fear of COVID-19 and explore its possible correlation with the severity of the particular autistic traits in

Abstract:

We present a patient with mitochondrial myopathy who developed rhabdomyolysis following treatment with clindamycin. While clindamycin is not yet linked to drug-induced rhabdomyolysis in the literature, other drugs with mechanisms of action similar to clindamycin have been shown to damage human host mitochondria. Given this, we contend that clindamycin may also be capable of causing mitochondrial injury, and that while in otherwise healthy patients it may not produce any negative clinical outcome, it can precipitate rhabdomyolysis in certain patients whose mitochondria are already vulnerable.

Abstract. Background: Mill’s liberalism, the post-World War II German Social Market Economy (Rhine Capitalism) and modern consumer protection share the conviction that market participants have equal rights and responsibilities. Within this framework, governments and market providers are responsible for balancing the knowledge deficits of consumers in cases of “asymmetric information”. The widely discussed Reno Model for Responsible Gambling appears to be based on similar ideas by setting standards for informing participants of gambling features and procedures.

Abstract Stakeholder participation is relevant in strengthening priority setting processes for health worldwide, since it allows for inclusion of alternative perspectives and values that can enhance the fairness, legitimacy and acceptability of decisions. Low-income countries operating within decentralized systems recognize the role played by sub-national administrative levels (such as districts) in healthcare priority setting. In Uganda, decentralization is a vehicle for facilitating stakeholder participation. Our objective was to examine district-level decision-makers’ perspectives on the pa

In 2014, our sexual health clinic implemented a new adult safeguarding pathway, including an adult safeguarding proforma, an electronic database and a monthly adult safeguarding meeting. We conducted a retrospective case note review of patients entered onto the safeguarding database and found that greater numbers of adults were identified as vulnerable following the introduction of this pathway. Many required referral for onward support, highlighting the importance of robust safeguarding procedures in

ARF is the body’s autoimmune response to an untreated Group A Streptococcal (GAS) throat or skin infection. If multiple or severe episodes of ARF occur and are left untreated, this can lead to permanent cardiac damage known as RHD. RHD remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality globally.

Abstract:

Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening condition requiring immediate treatment. The initial therapy should take into account the clinical presentation, pathophysiology at play, precipitating factors and underlying cardiac pathology. Particular attention should be given to polymorbidity and the avoidance of potential iatrogenic harm. Patient preferences and ethical issues should be integrated into the treatment plan at an early stage. The average survival of AHF patients is 2 years and the most vulnerable period is the 3-month time window directly after discharge. Reducing both persist

Adoption of clinical decision support (CDS) systems leads to improved clinical performance through improved clinician decision making, adherence to evidence-based guidelines, medical error reduction, and more efficient information transfer and to reduction in health care disparities in under-resourced settings. However, little information on CDS use in the community health care (CHC) setting exists. This study examines if organizational, provider, or patient level factors can successfully predict the level of CDS use in the CHC setting with regard to breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer scr
