Abstract:
Studies done between 1997 and 2003 are reviewed to give an overall picture of antimalarial drug resistance in the Eastern Mediterranean Region of the World Health Organization [WHO]. The situation in 8 countries where resistance has been reported is detailed. It has been difficult to abandon chloroquine as first-line treatment even though resistance to it is widespread. Resistance to sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine has also been detected. The spread of resistance could be slowed down by the adoption of effective national policies and control programmes.

Abstract Bartonella is a vector-borne zoonotic pathogen, which could also be transmitted directly and cause a variety of clinical illnesses. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of Bartonella in countries in the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region (WHO-EMR) region. We searched using the keywords Bartonella and the name of each country in the WHO-EMR in databases such as PubMed, ISI (Web of Science), Scopus, and Google Scholar, with a publication date range of 1990–2022 and limited to English articles. We evaluated the quality of the studies using the STROBE 6-item checklist and used the

Background: Schools provide an exceptional opportunity for mental health promotion and intervention. Aims: To describe the development of a World Health Organization (WHO) mental health in schools programme in the Eastern Mediterranean Region. Methods: Two tenets guided development of the mental health in schools programme: (1) it used a multitiered system of support framework that includes 3 tiers of interventions (universal, early and targeted); and (2) interventions that must be feasible for implementation by non-mental health professionals. Results: The WHO mental health in schools program

AbstractIntroduction: Cancer is a growing health problem globally. The late diagnosis of a significant portion of the cases, especially in the developing world, is still a key factor in increasing mortality. Cancer is the fourth leading cause of death in the Eastern Mediterranean Region and the third in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), according to local data. The incidence is expected to double in the next two decades due to population growth, urbanization, increased life expectancy, and a westernized lifestyle. The mortality-to-incidence ratio in the UAE is 0.39, which is comparable to that i

Mpox has spread along the Busia-Malaba border that links eastern Uganda and western Kenya, with risk factors centred on cross-border mobility. Community responses to mpox are shaped by access to information on radio, television and social media as well as local terminologies, understandings of disease aetiology, spiritual and religious beliefs, household structures and cross-border mobility patterns. Despite vaccine allocations from the World Health Organization (WHO), the response has been hindered by resource constraints, mistrust and cross-border challenges. This brief summarises findings o
