Abstract:

SummaryA more prominent role is needed for mental health interventions in global HIV/AIDS initiatives – such as the World Health Organization ‘3 by 5’ Initiative. Significant numbers of infected people have, or develop, mental health problems, and this often adversely impacts on HIV/AIDS treatment and adherence. Integrating psychiatric and psychosocial interventions should benefit both the mental and the physical health of people living with HIV/AIDS.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION: Neurosurgical training disparities and limited medical access create an enormous gap between low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and high-income ones. Annually, ∼5.2 million individuals with treatable neurosurgical conditions remain untreated, highlighting a calculated shortfall of 23,000 neurosurgeons globally. Mission:BRAIN Foundation, a non-profit organization, seeks to diminish these barriers by fostering neuroscientific knowledge and empowering healthcare providers worldwide to diminish this gap.

Abstract:

Cancer has become one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where 60% of the world’s total new cases are diagnosed. The challenge for effective control of cancer is multifaceted. It mandates integration of effective cancer prevention, encouraging early detection, and utilization of resource-adapted therapeutic and supportive interventions. In the resource-constrained setting, it becomes challenging to deliver each service optimally, and efficient allocation of resources is the best way to improve the outcome. This concept was translated i

Abstract:

e23004 Background: A large proportion of the global cancer burden occurs in low and middle income countries (LMICs). One of the significant barriers to adequate cancer control is the lack of an adequately trained oncology workforce. Medical education and training initiatives in oncology are necessary to tackle growing cancer incidence and mortality rates. We performed a scoping review of oncology medical education interventions in LMICs to understand the strategies used to train the global oncology workforce.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health threat of unprecedented scale, posing challenges across healthcare, agriculture, and environmental sectors. Defined as the ability of microorganisms to survive treatments that previously eliminated them, AMR leads to prolonged infections, higher mortality rates, and a surge in healthcare costs. The World Health Organization (WHO) warns that without urgent intervention, AMR could lead to 10 million deaths annually by 2050, eclipsing fatalities from major diseases like cancer.In low- and middle-income nations, where access to high-quality healthc

Abstract:

Optimal child nutrition is fundamental to physical growth, cognitive development, immune function, and long-term health outcomes. However, millions of children in resource-limited settings are still affected by malnutrition in its many forms, including undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, and increasing rates of childhood obesity. This review article examines the burden and determinants of malnutrition in low-resource settings, analyzes successful community-based interventions, highlights global case studies, and proposes a roadmap for sustainable and scalable nutrition improvement.

Abstract:

The global fashion industry is undergoing a profound shift towards sustainability, driven by innovations in bio-based textiles derived from agricultural byproducts such as cactus, pineapple, banana, coconut, fungi, and bacterial cultures. This article comprehensively explores the technological advancements, industry adoption trends, socioeconomic impact on emerging markets, and barriers to widespread adoption of bio-based textiles. The alignment of these innovations with global sustainability initiatives, key industry collaborations, and policy interventions are also examined.

Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been identified as a significant risk factor for the development of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Probiotics given concurrently with antibiotics have been shown to have a moderate impact on preventing CDI. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of hospital-wide interventions designed to reduce PPI use and increase probiotics and whether these interventions were associated with a change in the incidence of hospital onset (HO)-CDI.

Breastfeeding is a public health priority, recommended by all leading health authorities. Although numerous interventions and global initiatives have demonstrated some effect on improving breastfeeding outcomes, breastfeeding rates remain suboptimal. Educational support is a component of these interventions that assists families to establish and maintain breastfeeding. Although parents are being provided with education, information that is received appears to be inconsistent resulting in breastfeeding recommendations not being met.

Abstract:

Neurosurgery has long faced significant disparities in access to care in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where millions lack access to timely, lifesaving neurosurgical interventions. The Duke Division of Global Neurosurgery and Neurology (DGNN) was established to address these inequities by building sustainable neurosurgical capacity through strategic partnerships, training programs, and service initiatives. DGNN’s framework evolved from the initial "3-Ts" approach—technology, twinning, and training—to a broader focus on service, research, and training, prioritizing local ownership o

Pregnant women and their babies are among the populations most vulnerable to untoward health outcomes. Yet current standards for evaluating health interventions cannot be met during pregnancy because of lack of adequate evidence. The situation is even more concerning in low-income and middle-income countries, where the need for effective interventions is the greatest.
