Walking is a universal mode of travel that has many assets. It’s considered a serious track in terms of public health and sustainable mobility. The practice of regular physical activity such as walking helps to minimize the risk of obesity-related diseases such as cardiovascular accidents, diabetes and some cancers (Demers, 2008 ; Harnack et al, 2006 ; Bassuk et al, 2003 ; OMS, 2010 ; Cavill et al, 2003 ; Morris et al, 1997). It also appears as an appropriate response to our daily travels and plays a significant role in reducing congestion and air pollution (Cubukcu et al, 2013, Guers et al, 2003 ; Litman, 1999). However, walking is not considered and it does not have specific investment in the surveys on the daily mobility. In Algeria, many cities face with problems of daily congestion with significant social, economic, environmental and health consequences (Oucher 2010 ; Kerbachi et al, 2006). The changes in terms of lifestyles and the increased mobility demand led the Algerian authorities to develop the supply of urban public transport (Metro Algiers, tramway projects, cable transport, etc.). These approaches are necessary but not sufficient, they must rely on a detailed knowledge of new mobility behaviours of the population (Gwiazdzinski, 2002, 2013). In order to do that, governments need tools used to collect information on the practices and behaviours of individual mobility. In Algeria, the lack of information and data on urban mobility prevents to establish a diagnosis of the current situation, its trends, and limits the possibilities of adapted solutions. Although walking is very significant in Algerian cities (Boubakour, 2004), there are few studies devoted to Algeria. For this purpose, we would like to present the results of research focused on understanding the behaviours and practices of daily mobility through the use of new technologies (GPS). Our experimental observation protocol and the analysis of the walking practices used in the Grenoble’s area could be deployed in an Algerian city.

Abstract Objectives Providing valuable information on the prevalence of Covid-19 is a crucial step to improve and accentuate the disease surveillance and prevention system as this can limit the spread of the virus. Methods COVID-19 is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It is essential to understand the epidemiological characteristics of the first cases in each country. The purpose of this study is to describe the geographic distribution and some risk factors in the first thousands of cases in Algeria. This descriptive study was carried out to examine recent data published by public health institutions in Algeria, websites and the world health organization. Results The 8306 cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed in Algeria. By sex, men with 55.76% predominate, the most affected age group was 25 to 49 years old (41.1%), 600 cases of death were reported, subjects aged over 60 years are the most likely to die from COVID-19. Most of the confirmed subjects came from the cities of Blida and Algiers. All cases are human-to-human transmissions. Conclusion The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the lack of dical equipment in Algeria and in all countries of the world. This requires better management of the health sector on an international scale.

Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a leading cause of vision loss and blindness; therefore, the prevention of blindness should be one of the priorities for most public healthcare services. In Algeria, only Ranibizumab has marketing authorization as a hospital drug for treatment of DME since April 2013. The drug is provided by the hospital central pharmacy. Others AntiVEFG treatments options for DME are not provided by the Algerian public health system. To conduct a budget impact analysis of two scenarios for the introduction of DME treatments: The reference scenario using Ranibizumab, second scenario using Bevasizumab. The basic assumption was that the Algerian public health system would treat the entire target population with DME in 2016. The size of the population of interest was estimated from official population projections and the prevalence of the disease was obtained from the baromètre survey (Clinique mobile: changing diabetes). Prices of unit costs of anti vegf treatments were estimated with their purchase prices. The experts were consulted to establish the reference scenario with a treat and extend regimen of 7 injections per year. The incremental costs of bevacizumab scenario compared to the reference scenario were calculated.Univariate sensitivity analyses were run to check the robustness of the model. The Algerian public health system would have to treate 334512 individuals with DME. The annual costs of treating one patient would have been 5411 euros for ranibizumab and 210 euros for bevacizumab The incremental cost for the bevacizumab scenario would have been a reduction of 173979691,20 Euros (i.e., a cost saving). The bevacizumab option was found to represent a cost saving across sensitivity analyses. The introduction of bevacizumab for the treatment of DME is recommended for the Algerian Public Health System. The use and analysis of data from national surveys should facilitate decision making.

The management of hospital waste is a public health problem in Algeria. Many hospitals dump waste in anywhere, instead of disposing of it properly, exposing the lives of citizens to a high risk to their health. The aim of this research is to: describe and understand the mechanisms related to hospital waste management, identify the main impacts of mismanagement of Waste from Infectious Health Care Activities/ WIHCA on human health and the quality of the environment, and we will try to focus on the management quality of waste in Algerian hospitals, and propose solutions that can improve the treatment and disposal of this waste. Among the results of this research: the waste disposal sector of healthcare activities is poorly organized, structured and secured in all the hospitals in Algeria, all the actions carried out so far proved to be failing...

Infertility is a major public health problem that Assisted reproductive technology (ART) helps remedying, allowing infertile couples realizing their parental project. In Algeria, the infertility rate is about 15%. Thereupon, several ART national centers have emerged. The aim of this study is to evaluate the ART activities, provide quantified data to understand the ART practice in western Algeria and compare our results abroad. We conducted a retrospective study on 1930 women treated for an ART at the EL MAWLOUD fertility center in Oran from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020. Our study showed the patients' average age as 33.42 and the ICSI as the commonest ART technique in our center with 90% frequency. The pregnancy rate equals 26.59% by insemination in IUI, and 41.25 % by puncture in IVF and ICSI, i.e. an average success rate similar in Europe and USA. This study elucidates the use of ART techniques (2019-2020) in western Algeria. They are satisfactory in our region compared to international data in the literature. However, ART remains embryonic in Algeria, regarding mainly the exorbitant prices of these techniques and the non-reimbursement of this act by the National Social Security Fund, which handicaps couples with medium and low incomes.

Akin to other developing countries, Algeria has witnessed an increasing role of the private health sector in the past two decades. Our study sheds light on the public–private overlap and the phenomenon of physician dual practice in the provision of health care services using the particular case of cesarean deliveries in Algeria. Existing studies have reported that, compared to the public sector, delivering in a private health facility increases the risk of enduring a cesarean section. While confirming this result for the case of Algeria, our study also reveals the existence of public–private differentials in the effect of medical variables on the probability of cesarean delivery. After controlling for selection in both sectors, we show that cesarean deliveries in the private sector tend to be less medically justified compared with those taking place in the public sector, thus, potentially leading to maternal and neonatal health problems. As elsewhere, the contribution of the private health sector to the unmet need for health care in Algeria hinges on an appropriate legal framework that better coordinates the activities of the two sectors and reinforces their complementarity.

<h3>Introduction</h3> Hepatitis A is a real public health problem worldwide: 273 confirmed cases in Algeria in 2010. She is responsible for 10–30% of hepatitis in adults and 70–90% in children. <h3>Objectives</h3> To determine the frequency and severity of hepatitis A. <h3>Materials and Methods</h3> A retrospective study done on the records of patients hospitalized for complicated form of hepatitis A over a period of 02 years (2009–2010). 28 patients hospitalized for complicated forms: signs of liver failure. <h3>Results</h3> Incidence: 1.15%. Age group affected is between 5–10 years with a female predominance. In Algeria the transmission is the predominant waterborne, mostly occurring in winter. Fever, vomiting and asthenia constitute 68.74% of the reasons for consultation. The average AST, ALT was elevated 100 times normal. <h3>Conclusion</h3> Hepatitis A is very common in Algeria in connection with a water-borne and the majority of cases are asymptomatic and almost at the age of 18 years 95% of patients develop antibodies.

Primary care in the national health care service in Algeria plays an important role: the execution of the National Immunization Schedule for infants, the care of mother and child, the monitoring of chronically ill patients, etc. However, offering modern primary health care to cover the real health needs of the population requires responsible and courageous self-criticism, either by health officials or by health economists. This is a descriptive and analytical study that highlights the reality of primary health care in the Algerian health system, which aims to make a constructive critique in relation to the pillars and principles of modern and effective primary health care. We have arrived that the sine qua none conditions must be realized in order to boost the role of primary health care in Algeria, among them: organizational non-accessibility, medium or poor quality care, non-availability of resources early detection of some pathologies… are recurring problems which push the care-seeker to desert primary health care structures, as well as non-compliance with the organization of care.

Introduction. From the beginning of the outbreak, there have been many reports of psychological distress due to the Covid-19 pandemic. To date, there is no Algerian data about the consequences of the Covid-19 on psychiatric services. We conducted a study to determine whether covid 19 is associated with changes in the rates of consultations as well prescriptions during the seven-month postdeclaration of the pandemic in Algeria, compared with the same period of 2019. The implications of the current results for psychiatric service provision in Algeria were briefly discussed. Method. We conducted a quantitative retrospective study by collecting the patient’s data from a computerized register containing the statistics of all patients who attended the center for psychiatric consultation, and copies of all prescriptions done during October, November, December of the years 2019 and 2020. Results. Preliminary analysis of patient’s medical records indicated a significant increase in patients center attendance, with a major increase in the number of consultants (765) during the period of the study in 2020 against (494) in 2019. We found a 54,85% increase in total consultations and 60% more prescribed medications in 2020 compared to 2019 of the same period. Conclusion. Our findings are consistent with other studies reporting an increased demand for mental health care and the rate of psychotropics prescriptions. There is a need to adapt to that huge demand plus the monitoring of side effects and paying attention to those with vulnerabilities. Further work is needed to establish the long-term impact on public mental health and the prevention of complications. Keywords: Covid-19, Coronavirus, Psychiatry, Algeria, Mental health.

Lead poisoning, is currently recognized as a real public health problem. The WHO classifies lead as one of 10 chemicals of serious public health concern. The assessment and management of health risks and public health interventions are largely based on a detailed knowledge of exposure of the general population. Biomonitoring has become an essential tool in environmental health. In Algeria, to date, no study on the evaluation of lead impregnation has been carried out at the national level. The main objective of this work is to assess the exposure of the general Algerian population to lead This is a cross-sectional study with a descriptive aim, carried out over the entire Algerian national territory, on a population aged between 3 and 74 years old. It was carried out on a representative sample of households. The survey lasted three years. A questionnaire, a clinical examination and a blood sample were carried out for each individual. Analytical methods for the determination of lead in whole blood by ICP-MS were optimized and validated. Generalized linear regression models were used to determine the factors influencing lead levels measured in blood samples. The study population, spread over 39 wilayas and 121 districts, consists of 3674 individuals. The mean lead levels were 28.27 μg/L [27.38–29.17], the median was 22.22 μg/L, and the 95th percentile was 73.83 μg/L. The prevalence of elevated blood lead levels (≥100 μg/L) in the study population was 2.2%. A blood lead value of 75 μg/L was proposed as the Reference Exposure Value (REL) for Algeria. Blood lead levels were influenced by age, gender, wilaya of residence, dietary habits such as consumption of canned food and the way in which water is conserved for daily consumption. The use of kohl has been confirmed as a potential source of lead exposure especially among women. Recommendations have been issued to reduce the blood lead levels of the general population in Algeria in terms of limitation of lead in the sources of exposure, installation of an effective health monitoring system and also an adequate management of lead poisoning.

Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic has presented Algeria with a slew of issues, including major economic consequences. Despite implementing containment measures, the government has been unable to fully restrict the spread of the virus. To reestablish normalcy and resume economic activities, the government must discover a means to cohabit with the virus, which requires achieving herd immunity. The World Health Organization (WHO) had set a target for 70% of the population to be fully vaccinated by the end of July 2022 in order to achieve herd immunity. However, whereas vaccines are the preferred method for achieving herd immunity, Algeria has only managed to vaccinate 30.2% of its population, with only 13.5% being fully vaccinated, falling significantly short of the vaccination targets set by the WHO. This is due to vaccine hesitancy and a lack of effective vaccine distribution technology. To reach herd immunity levels, the government must gain and maintain public trust in vaccinations and improve vaccine delivery to hard‐to‐reach areas. This paper provides an overview of the current COVID‐19 situation in Algeria, progress made, and challenges toward achieving herd immunity, and recommends solutions for policymakers to develop sustainable interventions.

Introduction: Hospitalization is a stressful event that affects the nutritional status of adults and elderly. Inpatients with non-communicable diseases (NCDs) represent a vulnerable group facing an increased risk of malnutrition. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of malnutrition in Algerian inpatients with non-communicable diseases in a public hospital in Skikda (Algeria). Methods: This was a cross-sectional, descriptive survey carried out during one month from the 15th November 2020 to the 10th December 2020, with inpatients with at least one NCD (cardiovascular diseases, cancers, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases). The assessment of their nutritional status was carried out using the Subjective Global Assessment tool (SGA). Results: One hundred and five patients were included. One of two patients had at least one non communicable disease. In our study, the SGA allowed us to estimate the malnutrition prevalence at 44.76% (ranks B and C: moderate and severe malnutrition). Our study showed a length of stay (LOS) of 4.14±7.69days. Conclusion: The considerable prevalence of malnutrition was, in part, due to reduced food intake and short LOS. In order to detect and prevent malnutrition, the nutritional status assessment must be included in the routine of health care in Algeria.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate the follow-up of hypertensive patients with or without associated cardiovascular risk factors in western Algeria. And to establish a biological and epidemiological profile. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. Two hundred patients aged 40 years and over followed up for the HTA were collected among the population of patients seen in consultation at the hospital of Mascara and Saida (two cities in western Algeria) from November 15, 2017 to February 15. The questionnaire, anthropometric parameters, biological assessments and treatments were noted. Results: Among the 200 hypertensive subjects recorded, 60% were women and 40% men. The participants had been hypertensive for an average of 10 years. There were more men with diabetes than women: 71.25% vs. 65% for women. About a third of them were type 1 (30% of men and 12.5% of women, p=0.228). Both sexes were almost equally represented, with regard to dyslipidemia: 57.5% of women vs. 60% of men. Conclusion: High blood pressure is a disease that is progressing rapidly in Algeria. The risk factors associated with hypertension are: Age, BMI, diabetes and dyslipidemia... These data confirm the importance of this pathology in terms of public health.

Currently, the Algerian health system is facing the fourth wave of COVID-19 in which the number of recovered cases grows exponentially each day due to the COVID-19 Omicron variant. According to the Algerian National Institute of Public Health (ANIPH), it was reported 168 668 confirmed cases and 4 189 deaths till 29 July, 2021. In this work, we aim to utilize supervised Machine Learning (ML) based models in an attempt to forecast the future trend of the disease in Algeria. To that end, we use three forecasting models: Facebook Prophet, LSTM and ARIMA. Forecasting results of the 90 future days are provided. The used dataset contains the confirmed and death cases collected from the daily Epidemiological Situation (ES), published by ANIPH, from 19 April 2020 to 29 July 2021. The forecasting accuracy of the models are assessed and compared using several statistical assessment criteria. The results show that ARIMA outperforms Facebook Prophet and LSTM in the case of confirmed cases. However, LSTM shows best performance in the case of death cases. This study shows clearly that the pandemic spread is still in progress and protection measures like contact restriction and lockdown should be strictly applied especially with the appearance of the COVID-19 Delta and Omicron variants.

A prospective study of notified cases of tuberculosis started on treatment during 1984 in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis situated in the northern suburb of Paris was undertaken with the help of the Ministry of Health, and the National Committee for the Prevention of Tuberculosis. Fifty-seven hospitals were involved as were 42 sanatoria, 19 clinics and private hospitals and 157 doctors enabled 578 cases of tuberculosis to be registered. For these 578 cases there were 884 notifications coming principally from the control services of the Social Security and public hospitals. Although several sources of notification had declared the same patient, no source had registered all the patients of whom they had knowledge. The notifications made on 12 different forms were often incomplete and sometimes erroneous. Of the 578 patients declared there were 34 different nationalities, of whom 190 were French, approximately 33%; 87 were Algerian, or 15%; 83 came from Mali, or 14%. The study compared the level of notification of tuberculosis in the French, Algerians and those from Mali and has shown that they are six times higher amongst Algerians than the French population and 39 times higher in those from Mali than in the French population. The proportion of patients already treated were 11% and those patients suffering from exclusively extra-respiratory tuberculosis was 16%. A bacteriological and/or histological confirmation was obtained in 70% of cases. The study of the socio-demographic characteristics of the patients has enabled a portrayal of the representation of unskilled workers and the unemployed in comparison to the general population of the department.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

WHO advocates that financial and fiscal measures, aimed at making tobacco acquisition less affordable, are most effective, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.The objective is to analyze the application and effectiveness of the tobacco fiscal policy in Algeria in accordance with the provisions of the WHO Convention-Framework for Tobacco Control.Using macroeconomic data covering the period 1970-2018, we verified whether the levels, structure and evolution of tobacco taxes are oriented towards the implementation of a tobacco control tax policy. Then, we analyzed the conditions for the effectiveness of this policy and its viability through an econometric study of the price elasticity of cigarette demand, the income elasticity of cigarette demand, and the elasticity of affordable tobacco demand.We have shown that in Algeria, the tobacco control fiscal Policy is not applied, it is not effective in the long term, and the conditions for its viability are not met.The results of this study have led to question Article 6 of the WHO FCTC.

The Algerian health system operates in a demographic, economic, environmental, and societal specific context to meet the challenges of epidemiological transition. Development of information and communication technologies in this atmosphere allow telemedicine and e-health emergence in the vast country of Algeria. Thus, the country may face these challenges by including them in a national telemedicine plan and making a major focus of global action for the prevention and control of prevalent diseases. The interest to adopt this tool in daily practice stems from an improvement in the quality of communication between practitioners and in the doctor–patient relationship with a possibility of quick access to care and more efficient care pathways. Thus, national goals in fight plans against diseases will be achieved. Telemedicine and e-health projects that methodologically well-defined, respecting regulations and using all means and all available resources, including WHO mobile health, are to be designed and implemented in all areas, especially in the national plan against not-communicated diseases, maternal and child health, old aging health, and mental health. This approach will integrate telemedicine in the health care system whose inevitable implementation can be done on solid foundations and will be actively supported by SATeS.

Introduction: brucellosis is a disease caused by the pathogenic bacterium Brucella that attacks several species of mammals among them the human being where it produces a nonspecific fever. Objective: to apply an educational intervention to increase the level of knowledge concerning human brucellosis in patients and health workers living in the highest risk areas of disease transmission from the clinical-epidemiological characterization of human brucellosis in children of the Guettara Commune Wilaya Djelfa, Algeria, during September 2015 - February 2017. Method: a descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out with children of the Guettara Commune Wilaya Djelfa, Algeria. The target group was represented by all the patients who attended the polyclinic with a diagnostic impression of human brucellosis (98), and the sample by 69 patients with positive diagnosis (by clinical, epidemiological evidence of exposure and laboratory results). The variables age, sex, clinical and laboratory findings and combination of drugs were studied. From this, an experimental intervention research was developed where the residents of the areas with the highest risk of infection were included. Conclusions: the development of the research generated a positive impact on both health personnel and the population at risk of human brucellosis, the educational intervention showed a favorable impact.

Cystic echinococcosis is a neglected tropical parasitic disease affecting both humans and animals with considerable socioeconomic impact on affected pastoral and poor communities. CE is endemic in the Mediterranean basin, including Algeria posing a real threat for either animal and public health. This study was conducted to evaluate the level of awareness and knowledge of Algerian university students about this disease and to describe their attitude toward some risky practices. Results showed that despite that a high number of students (76.1%) have heard about CE, their level of knowledge is however medium (63.3%) especially among students of non medical and life sciences specialties. The gaps of knowledge concerns especially the life cycle of the parasite even they are aware about the association of dogs (43.7%) and sheep (59.4%) and considered that dogs are the main source of contamination of humans (58.1%) through contaminated foods (45%) or direct contact with their faeces (44.5%). Regarding their practice, a good level was shown since washing vegetables (99.2%) and washing hands after touching a dog (97.9%) and dogs deworming (82%) were common. These results highlight the need to improve knowledge about the transmission cycle of the parasite through awareness campaign targeting students which could be helpful in CE eradication.

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a parasitic vector disease transmitted by a dipteran insect bite, the sandfly. This still poses a public health problem in Algeria and in many countries. It is a widespread pathology that develops in sporadic or endemic form. In order to assess the epidemiological situation of this disease in the Djelfa region and to determine the influence of the factors of variation and to estimate the risk on public health, a study was extended from January 2018 to May 2018.
The results showed that the number of cases of human cutaneous leishmaniasis was 249 cases with an average of 49.8 ± 37.18 cases (20.00 ± 14.93%). The highest rate of this condition was observed during the month of January (37.75%) and the disease is strongly negatively correlated with mean monthly temperature (r = -0.87, R2 = 0.75). ). Statistical analysis has shown that the incidence of the disease is highly dependent on months (P <0.001).
Our results showed that the disease mainly affects men (57.83%) than women (42.17%). The pathology is better related to sex (P <0.05). In parallel, the distribution of results by age shows that patients aged between 20 and 50 years are the most affected by the disease (42.17%). In addition, residents of Ain Oussera commune are more affected by the disease (22.09%).
These results testify to the real risk posed by human involvement with cutaneous leishmaniasis in this region of Algeria and the need for vector and reservoir recognition, and to implement a program of extension and control in this region according to epidemiological aspects of the disease.

One of the reasons of high pediatric mortality in developing countries, sickle cell disease is gradually emerging and is becoming a public health problem in many countries where it is rife. In Algeria the incidence is 2.7%. The management of sickle cell disease is increasingly better codified now thanks to better knowledge of the condition. It takes into account not only currently accepted universal principles but also the realities specific to our country. Purpose: to share with health care professionals our therapeutic attitude during main acute complications as well as during the inter3critical phase of sickle cell disease in Algerian children. Clinical cases. In this article, we presented three clinical cases concerning two adolescents and a two3year3old infant, carriers of major sickle cell syndrome, who were hospitalized for severe forms. Conclusions. Providing right care for children with sickle cell disease could help prevent or improve many complications associated with this disease and allow them to lead healthier and more productive lives. Our patients were presented late. These cases revealed the problematic nature of early diagnosis, regular follow-up and early detection of complications in SCD patients especially with asymptomatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki declaration. The informed consent of the patients was obtained for conducting the studies. No conflict of interest was declared by the author. Keywords: sickle cell disease, acute anemia, stroke, osteonecrosis.

Since the global spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for COVID-19 disease, has been declared a “public health emergency of international concern” by the World Health Organization, epidemiological plans of control and investigation were established. In this study we aim to identify the epidemiological situation, mortality rates, and vaccination response in the population of Oum el Bouaghi, Algeria from March 2021 to March 2022. Clinical characteristics of COVID-19 confirmed cases, and vaccination data were collected from the Health and Population Directorate (HPD), as well as the COVID-19 unit in the Mohemed Boudiaf Public Hospital Establishment. The epidemiological profiles of the COVID-19 patients, along with cumulative number of people vaccinated depending on vaccine’s type were reported by numbers, percentages, curves and graphic histograms. The epidemiology of Covid-19 infection in Oum el Bouaghi, was similar to that recorded in many countries during the study period. It experienced two peaks, in August 2021 and in January 2022 which coincided with Delta and Omicron variants respectively. A total of 2068 COVID-19 cases were reported, with the average age of 54 and a female predominance (57%). Furthermore, people beyond the age of 40, especially over 65 years were the most hospitalized category (43% and 31% respectively), and presented the highest rate of morality (36% and 56% respectively).Among the 1510 hospitalized cases 169 (11%) patients passed away. They had a high profile of chronic diseases, especially cardiovascular diseases (high blood pressure/heart disease) 48% and diabetes 43%.Of a total of 84.047 people vaccinated, 59% were men, and 77% preferred Sinovac. People over 65 years had the highest vaccination rate (42%). People with chronic diseases accounted for 74% of the vaccinated population, clinicians and health professionals 7% and the rest of the population presented only 19%.In conclusion, People above 65 years with comorbidities appeared to be more susceptible to present the severe form of the infection. The quarantine adopted by Algeria and the strict precautionary measures has allowed the return to stability and a gradual reduction of positive cases. Additionally OEB had a medium participation in vaccination, with a dominance of people with chronic diseases. This perfectly meets the mechanism of COVAX and the indications of the Algerian High Authority of Health.

Aromatherapy is a complementary medicine modality that involves the utilization of plant-derived essential oils for therapeutic purposes. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of aromatherapy use among the general population and health professionals in Algeria through two surveys. The first survey was conducted over a 30-day period in 20 department and included 237 individuals, while the second survey was conducted over a six-day period in Algiers and included 61 health professionals, including physicians, pharmacists, and herbalists. Both surveys were self-administered and conducted through online platforms and various institutes, companies, shops, and stores. Our findings revealed a notable level of confusion among both the general population and health professionals between essential oils and vegetable oils. In addition, essential oils were not commonly prescribed or recommended by physicians and pharmacists, whereas herbalists were found to be more likely to suggest their use. Considering the abundant flora in Algeria and the public's interest in natural medicine, aromatherapy could potentially serve as a valuable healthcare modality by establishing scientific and therapeutic foundations, promoting the production of high-quality essential oils, and training qualified professionals. However, it is important to exercise caution when utilizing these products due to their potential toxicity, and their use should be guided by specialists in the field.

The control of mastitis is a crucial step in the preparation of the next lactation in dairy cows. In order to assess the practices and attitudes surrounding the use of antimicrobials at dry-off, a survey was conducted among veterinary practitioners in fifteen provinces of Northern Algeria. The results revealed that 45.95% of the farms followed by the respondents were rather small in size comprising about ten cows per farm and that a large majority of the farmers practised gradual drying off (72.97%) without adjusting the feed ration (70.27%) to this stage. Antibiotic dry cow therapy (DCT) was a common practice and selectively performed in 86.49% of cases regardless of udder health status. Cefalexin was the most infused intra-mammary (IMM) antibiotic (40.54%), while tylosin was the one favoured for parenteral administration (48.15%). Analysis of factors influencing the antibiotic DCT efficacy showed that a frequent (13.51%) occurrence of new intramammary infections (IMIs) was related to farmers’ attitudes (self-medication) and the policy of blanket DCT. Although the use of a teat sealant was uncommon (71.43%) in the farming traditions, the substitution of antibiotics seems to be a plausible prospect, since the majority of participants (89.19%) agreed with the implementation of aromatherapy concept at dry-off, mainly as a complement to antibiotics. This survey gives an overview of risk practices regarding mastitis management in northern Algeria. Hence, further zootechnical, veterinary and organizational efforts need to be made to promote animal production and welfare as well as public health through improved udder health.

It describes Benjamin´s first weeks of work as a new resident of Internal Medicine in a public hospital in Paris. Next to him, an experienced Algerian physician; Abdel, performs his practices of validation. Main problems with these two doctors are described: doubts, decision making, camaraderie, bioethical and liability problems as well as problems derived from public health system budgets. All mixed with short ironic and comic scenes that sometimes reach surrealism.

Introduction: The prevalence of childhood obesity has been dramatically increasing worldwide. This study was performed to estimate the prevalence of overweight and obesity in school children age 8 to 15 years in Sidi-Bel-Abbes (north-western region of Algeria). Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed from February through May 2008 on 428 school children (218 boys and 210 girls) aged 8-15 years in the urban area of Sidi-Bel-Abbes. Their height and weight were measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Overweight, obese and underweight were defined using three different international reference values for BMI: the International Obesity Task Force cut-offs to define overweight and obesity, the French references to define thinness and overweight (3rd and 97th percentiles, respectively) and the Centre for Disease Control 2000 references to define thinness, overweight and obesity (5th, 85th and 95th percentiles respectively). Results: According to the IOTF, French and CDC references, the overall prevalence rates of overweight was 7.94, 7.71 and 7.23%, respectively. Obesity affected 3.73, 3.73 and 4.43%, respectively. Underweight was found in 3.96 and 8.17% of children according to the French and CDC references. Girls had a higher prevalence of overweight than boys did at all ages, while boys had a higher prevalence of obesity. Conclusion: The prevalence rate of overweight and obesity in Algerian children is considered to be high. This is a major public health problem requiring preventive intervention to avoid future health consequences in adulthood.

Many countries have developed limits for public exposure values. However, there are no Algerian recommendations or laws governing electromagnetic pollution. This work aims to assess the exposure by measuring the electromagnetic field. Then, these results are compared with literature studies that treat the effects of electromagnetic field on public health. Because these reactions are characterized by uncertainty and imprecision, we found it useful to analyze these data by fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is perfectly appropriate in our case in which a fuzzy algorithm is proposed to predict the health effects on exposed subjects from the input variables.

To describe trends of gross and specific mortality rates for all five countries of the Great Maghreb and to identify the typology and the main causes of death during the period 1990-2015.This is an observational and descriptive study of causes of death in the Great Maghreb (Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Mauritania and Libya) using the database Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). Causes of death were categorized according to the IHME into three categories: "Communicable Diseases", "Non Communicable Diseases" and "Trauma". These following tracer years (1995, 2005, 2015) were considered in the study of global and specific causes of death by country, disease group, sex and age group.During the period 1990-2015, the general trend in gross mortality rates was going down, reaching in 2015 rates that varied from 547/100 000 inhabitants in Tunisia to 437/100 000 inhabitants in Algeria. The trend in specific mortality from Communicable Diseases has been declining, particularly in Mauritania. Among the "Top 10" list of causes of death, four to eight were "Non Communicable Diseases" including ischemic heart disease, which was ranked first in the Maghreb except Mauritania. For children under 5 years old, prematurity was the leading cause of death in the five Maghreb countries in 2015.This analysis of causes of death in the Great Maghreb confirmed the similarity of the epidemiological transition and health priorities. Hence the urgency of developing common North African strategies for monitoring, training and intervention in public health.

Poststreptococcal diseases constitute an important problem for public health in Algeria. The prevalence rate of rheumatic heart diseases reaches 0.29% in the urban population but higher rates were locally observed in urban foci for the 15–19y. population (4). A nationwide programme for the community control of rheumatic fever (RF) and rheumatic heart diseases (RHD) has therefore been initiated in 1990, according to W.H.O. recommandations (3,6). A national committee was set up, who stressed in particular the necessity of improving the biological support for diagnosis and epidemiological surveillance of streptococcal diseases in the country. Hereafter are reported the preliminary bacteriological, serological and epidemiological data that were obtained as part of this programme.

Despite the extensive body of evidence demonstrating the risks of tobacco, many people continue to smoke. Medical science has not yet found a 'cure' for this. Instead, healthcare professionals (HCPs) have access to a range of strategies, including pharmacological and psychological interventions, to help support smoking cessation. Yet giving up is not easy and not everyone succeeds. The reasons why are as varied as they are complex, ranging from physical addiction to an emotional dependence on the habit. Barriers include a lack of adequate support from smoking cessation services or HCPs, withdrawal symptoms, and psychosocial factors such as the challenges of adapting to behaviour change. For those people who are unable or unwilling to quit, harm reduction strategies can help reduce the risks associated with smoking, from cardiovascular disease to cancer. While the evidence base is still relatively immature, some studies have shown that products such as e-cigarettes and heated tobacco systems can deliver the addictive nicotine with significantly fewer toxicants and carcinogens than cigarettes. In this interview, Krzysztof Filipiak, past President of the Polish Society of Hypertension (PTNT) and former Deputy Rector Magnificus and Dean for Science at the Medical University of Warsaw, Poland, and Nadjib Bouayed, President of the Algerian Association of Vascular Surgery of the University Hospital of Oran, Algeria, share their views on the pragmatic approach. They explain how finding the best intervention for each patient is of utmost importance and why harm reduction strategies have a place in smoking cessation services. They also review the current literature on products such as heat-not-burn (HnB) systems and identify gaps in the evidence base.

A cohort of 120 medical stents who have nearly completed their medical training have been surveyed in Oran, Algeria. Most of them are not satisfied concerning their medical training (82%). However, they accept the conventional pattern of medical learning which allows little room to active participation from the trainees. The most appreciated scientific disciplines are cardiology for men and gynecology for women. In most cases, priority is given to clinical disciplines. Community medicine and public health are rather neglected. Similarly, at the end of their training, medical students' knowledge is rather tiny regarding teamwork or health promotion. Clearly, most of them consider themselves as care providers, not health builders.

A survey on human cystic echinococcosis was carried out in two public health establishments including the state hospital and one private medical clinic in Djelfa province (Algeria) to report the epidemiological profile of surgical cases and to examine the fertility of collected cysts. Total 18 hydatid cysts from 11 patients of different ages living both in rural and urban areas were obtained. Liver localization was noted in 73% of cases compared to lung localization (27%). Microscopic examination showed a fertility rate of 94.45% against 5.55% of sterile cysts.

The restructuring of the basic health care structures represented by basic health care facilities in Algeria, in accordance with Executive Decree 07/140 of 19 May 2007, could have both positive and negative effects: as positive effects, we mention the Bringing diverse health services closer to the citizen. As for the negative effects, this Executive Decree has removed the basic health care facilities from its primary role, which is prevention. Among the results of our case study on the 7 wilayas of East sanitary region: we note inequalities in the health needs, and inequalities in the means allocated to cover these needs, between the communes of the same wilaya, and between the wilayas themselves.

The problem of general access to medical care is a major problem till nowadays, especially in the Third World countries where financial obstacles tend to exclude large categories of population from the health care system. The Algerian experience of setting up a free of cost health care system deserves a heedful investigation, on condition of taking its context into account. This radical measure has been attended by a considerable endeavour in increasing the care supply and unifying the public health sector, contributing to a substantial improvement of the general health condition of the population. Nevertheless, this ambitious policy, excluding any real consult with the users, will face contradictions that will be sharpened by the economic and political crisis, calling in question the whole system.

This paper investigated the causality and co-integration relationships between public health expenditure and economic growth in Algeria during 1974-2014 using annual data. This paper concentrated on time series co-integration and causality in VECM framework. The findings revealed that there is a long-run causality from public health expenditure to economic growth, while it is not observed any short-run causality from expenditure health to economic growth. The lack of strong link from health to economic growth is not necessarily a reason to reallocate health investment away from the health sector. The improvements in health status will be worth the effort even if they turn out to have little effect on growth.

Systemic hypertension is a global public health problem. It affects all parts of the population. In Algeria, according to the TAHINA 1 study, high blood pressure is the most common chronic pathology (24.8%). Despite numerous recommendations from learned societies 2.3.4.5 and the existence of effective therapies, a high percentage of patients remains uncontrolled 6.7.8. Our work aimed to study the clinical profile of hypertensives who presented to our cardiology consultation at the EPH in Laghouat. This is a longitudinal observational study running from October 2022 to June 2023. We collected 560 patients during daily consultations, lasting 10 months. The results made it possible to describe the present risk factors, dietary habits and socioeconomic conditions.

During the Corona-Covid 19 pandemic, the digitalization of Algeria's administrative management system led to rapid and significant changes, including in the local administration, in order to preserve citizens' health. As in other countries, the Algerian government adheres to a health protocol that requires quarantine and social distancing. To maintain continuity in public service performance, the health protocal forced the public administration, including local administration, to perform digitization and distant work. Finally, we conclude that the rapid digital transformation of the work of the local administration, despite its shortcomings, has achieved a great deal of satisfaction and met the general needs of the citizen, not to mention its effective contribution to maintaining public health.

French Abstract: L’objectif de cette recherche est de caracteriser le comportement d’automedication devenant abusif dans le milieu algerien. Il est interessant d’essayer de comprendre ce comportement particulier qu’est l’automedication en presentant les motifs de recours a cette pratique. Changer ce comportement social n’est guere facile car les comportements preconises vont le plus souvent a l’encontre des tendances naturelles. A travers une etude empirique micro-economique descriptive, nous presentons un diagnostic sur le phenomene automedication en Algerie afin de cerner les facteurs declenchant ce comportement. L’etude menee dans le milieu universitaire a revele que le comportement d’automedication est un comportement predetermine par plusieurs facteurs. Nous avons propose a cet effet, un des mecanismes de marketing social permettant d’orienter le comportement des individus vers un comportement plus responsable. Particulierement, amener individu a changer ses comportements en se basant sur la communication cognitive, persuasive et encourageante.
English Abstract: The objective of this research is to characterize the behavior of self-medication becoming abusive in the Algerian environment. It is interesting to try to understand this particular behavior of self-medication by presenting the reasons for using this practice. Changing this social behavior is not easy because the recommended behaviors usually go against natural trends. Through a descriptive microeconomic empirical study, we present a diagnosis on the self-medication phenomenon in Algeria in order to identify the factors triggering this behavior. The study conducted in academia revealed that self-medication behavior is a predetermined behavior by several factors. For this, we have proposed a social marketing mechanism to direct individuals’ behavior toward more responsible behavior. In 2 particular, to lead individuals to change their behavior based on cognitive, persuasive and encouraging communication.

There are considerable sums going to the care of patients, and the average annual unit cost of cancer patients is 237386 DA. This observation raises the issue of equity which must remain at the center of public health concerns. The results also indicate a generally encouraging level of satisfaction with the quality of health care and relations with the staff, however there is a high level of dissatisfaction linked to hygiene and catering. KEYWORDS: private cost, cancer patients, satisfaction, Ghardaia.

Belonging to a health profession requires an understanding of the ethical problems faced by its members. Chromosomal pathologies are very rare among live births; which does not give them priority for public health in developing countries, however these pathologies exist and can affect any family. The present study first describes patients with chromosomal pathologies in the population of western Algeria. The second step proposes to think about applying ethical principles to the practice of cytogenetics. We carried out a study by a triangulation of the sources of information: The study of files, the prospection in the international bioethical literature and the research in the authorized texts as well as the international instruments. This type of approach makes it possible to reflect on the border between ethics and law. Ethical reflection on this subject therefore appears essential to attract attention to these patients in order to give them a better place in our society.

Influenza has been a growing concern for the public health decision makers/policy makers. Indeed, they are in need of a real geo-making tool for monitoring and surveillance. The chapter aims to introduce a novel spatiotemporal decision system based on multicriteria ranking method, information geographic system (GIS), and SEIRSW system for public health. The later was designed, implemented, and validated in previous research for influenza risk assessment. The authors highlight the use of PROMETHEE II ranking method of multi-criteria decision analysis in GIS that incorporates various factors to monitor and identify potential high-risk areas of seasonal influenza and disease mapping. Factors related to the risk of seasonal influenza are obtained from simulation system and constitute the input values of PROMETHEE II ranking method for the 26 communes of the city of Oran, Algeria. The proposed system has demonstrated analytical capabilities in targeting high-risk spots and influenza surveillance monitoring system and it can help public health policy makers prioritize in their response goals and evaluate control strategies.

In his novel The Plague, Albert Camus viewed health as a public good and disease as a public evil. Written immediately after World War II, the novel portrays the diverse reactions to the plague that struck the Algerian port city of Oran. Perceiving the pestilence as inevitable, fatalists resigned themselves to suffering and eventual death. Roman Catholics who deferred to ecclesiastical authority sought solace in prayer. Although Father Paneloux regarded God’s will as incomprehensible, he urged his parishioners to ‘remain faithful and agree to rely on God’, even when they could not understand the reasons for children’s deaths.1 Individualists who doubted the efficacy of prayer tried to escape the city. Those with greater optimism mobilized sanitary squads to improve public hygiene in the more congested areas of Oran. These egalitarian activists helped the official sanitary service disinfect the attics and cellars, so that rats could no longer infest residences with the bacteria that spread bubonic plague. Public policymakers, including the prefect and his subordinates, quarantined the city, fumigated houses, administered social services, and tried to maintain public order. The plague produced contradictory effects. Both solidarity and anomie resulted.

No official estimates have been published regarding healthy life expectancy in Algeria, and chronic disease-free life expectancy in particular, despite their importance for assessing public health policy effectiveness and predicting social security expenditure.To estimate chronic disease-free life expectancy in Algeria and analyse its changes in recent years, and to determine how morbidity has changed according to age, time, and gender, compared with mortality, following expansion of morbidity, compression of morbidity, or morbidity-mortality balance.We used Sullivan's method to estimate chronic disease-free life expectancy in Algeria using data provided from the Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys and national life tables published by the Office for National Statistics for 2006, 2012-2013, and 2018-2019. The changes in healthy/unhealthy years compared with life expectancy were analysed.Although Algerian women live an average 1-2 years longer than men, their chronic disease-free life expectancy is 5 years shorter. The gain in life expectancy between 2006 and 2018-2019 was accompanied by a decline in chronic disease-free life expectancy from 62.36 and 57.27 years to 61.13 and 55.64 years for men and women, respectively.Algerians in 2018-2019 lived longer but not healthier than in 2006, and the number of unhealthy life years increased compared with life expectancy. Thus, public health programmes need to be more efficient to increase healthy years faster, or at least at the same pace as life expectancy.تحليل التغيرات الحديثة في متوسط العمرِ المتوقع بدون أمراض مزمنة في الجزائر.فريد فليسي، مريم شينون.ليس هناك أي تقديرات رسمية منشورة عن متوسط العمر الصحي، ولا سيما العمر المتوقع دون أمراض مزمنة في الجزائر، رغم أهميتها في تقييم فعالية سياسات الصحة العامة والتنبؤ بإنفاقات الضمان الاجتماعي.هدفت هذه الدراسة الى تقدير العمر المتوقع دون أمراض مزمنة في الجزائر وتغيراته في السنوات الأخيرة، وتحديد كيفية تغيََّّر المراضة حسب العمر والزمن والجنس، بالمقارنة مع الوفيات، وفقاً لتوسع المراضة أو ضغط المراضة أو التوازن بين المراضة والوفيات.استخدمنا طريقة سوليفان لتقدير العمر المتوقع دون أمراض مزمنة، باستخدام البيانات الواردة من المسوحات العنقودية المتعددة المؤشرات وجداول الحياة التي نشرها الديوان الوطني للإحصاء عن الأعوام 2006 ، وما بين عامَي 2012 – 2013 ، وما بين عامَي 2018 – 2019. وحللنا التغيرات في سنوات العمر الصحية وسنوات العمر غير الصحية ومتوسط العمر المتوقع.رغم أن المرأة الجزائرية تعيش في المتوسط أطول من الرجل ما بين عام إلى عامين، إلا أن متوسط عمر المرأة الجزائرية المتوقع دون أمراض مزمنة كان أقل بخمس سنوات. ارتفاع العمر المتوقع بين عامَي 2006 و 2018 / 2019 قد صاحبها انخفاض العمر المتوقع بدون أمراض مزمنة من 62.36 إلى 61.13 سنة للرجال و 57.27 إلى 55.64 سنة للنساء.في عامَي 2018 – 2019 ، عاش الجزائريون عمرًا أطول لكنه لم يكن أكثر صحةً من 2006 ، وارتفع عدد سنوات الحياة غير الصحية مقارنة بالعمر المتوقع. ومن ثَم، ينبغي أن تكون برامج الصحة العامة أكثر كفاءة لزيادة السنوات الصحية بسرعة أكبر، أو على الأقل بنفس وت يرة إرتفاع العمر المتوقع.Analyse de l'évolution récente de l'espérance de vie sans maladies chroniques en Algérie.En Algérie, aucune estimation officielle n'a été publiée concernant l'espérance de vie en bonne santé, en particulier l'espérance de vie sans maladies chroniques, malgré l'importance de ces deux indicateurs pour évaluer l'efficacité des politiques de santé publique et prévoir les dépenses de sécurité sociale.Estimer l'espérance de vie sans maladies chroniques en Algérie et analyser son évolution au cours des dernières années, ainsi que déterminer comment la morbidité à évolué selon l'âge, le temps et le genre, par rapport à la mortalité, suivant l'expansion et la compression de la morbidité ou l'équilibre morbidité-mortalité.Nous avons utilisé la méthode de Sullivan pour estimer l'espérance de vie sans maladies chroniques en Algérie à l'aide des données fournies par les enquêtes par grappes à indicateurs multiples et les tables de mortalité nationales publiées par l'Office National des Statistiques pour 2006, 2012-2013 et 2018-2019. L'évolution des années de bonne et de mauvaise santé comparativement à l'espérance de vie a été analysée.Bien que les femmes algériennes aient vécu en moyenne un à deux ans de plus que les hommes, leur espérance de vie sans maladies chroniques était plus courte de cinq ans. Le gain d'espérance de vie entre 2006 et 2018-2019 s'est accompagné d'une baisse de l'espérance de vie sans maladies chroniques de 62,36 à 61,13 ans pour les hommes et de 57,27 à 55,64 ans pour les femmes.En 2018-2019, les Algériens ont vécu plus longtemps sans pour autant être en meilleure santé qu'en 2006, et le nombre d'années de vie en mauvaise santé a augmenté par rapport à l'espérance de vie. Les programmes de santé publique devraient donc être plus efficaces afin que les années en bonne santé augmentent plus rapidement, ou du moins au même rythme que l'espérance de vie.

Despite Algeria has been able to join the group of countries with moderate tuberculosis (TB) prevalence since the 1980s, the disease remains one of the major public health issues in the country. Over the past decade, the annual incidence rate has hovered around 55 per 100 000 people. The incidence rate remains, however, very high in some provinces. The aim of this study was to describe the temporal patterns of TB in Médéa province which records the highest incidence rate in the country. In this retrospective study, the monthly pulmonary TB (PTB) and extrapulmonary TB (EPTB) data from 2008 to 2017, extracted from the national surveillance system, were analyzed and seasonal fluctuation was examined. The Box-Jenkins approach to fit seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model to the monthly PTB and EPTB notification data from 2008 to 2016 was performed. The models were used to predict the monthly cases of PTB and EPTB for the year 2017. The models were found to be adequate. Our findings indicate that SARIMA models are useful tools for monitoring and for predicting trends of TB incidence in Médea province.

In an underdeveloped country such as Algeria [20 million inhabitants, 2,140 US Dollars per capita gross national product (GNP)], satisfying a high level of health demand is difficult both in primary care and hospital. Limited facilities (hospital beds 2.3%; physicians 1:2,500; public health expenditure: 2% of GNP) combined with demographic pressure (population under 15 years of age: 47%) further compromise medical benefits. Qualitatively severe diseases such as pediatric cancers cannot be wholly managed locally. Thus administrative regulations permit sending patients with such situations abroad. We tested the feasibility of managing locally to a great extent (radiotherapy excepted) pediatric cancers. For leukemias and lymphomas, actuarial life expectancies corresponded to middle values of internationally published data. Cost-benefit estimations seemed good compared with other severe diseases managed both locally and abroad. Our present problem deals with balancing oncologic activity (more than 100 new cases a year) within a general pediatric department practice.

As most developing countries, Algeria does not seem to have escaped the tobacco epidemic raging around the world. Tobacco there has become one of the principal causes of death and illness. To confront this alarming situation, preventive measures have been taken. In particular, an epidemiological investigation of tobacco consumption was conducted among grade-school students in the Wilaya de Setif during the 1986-87 academic year. The fundamental data on tobacco dependency in grade school was obtained. 1,771 students from 12 to 20 years of age were polled through individual and anonymous questionnaires. The dimensions of this scourge were thus revealed: 18% of these students are smokers. The majority (97%) are boys. Smoking begins early, after age 10, with a high point at 14. To face this situation, a National Committee Against Tobacco was introduced by the Ministry of Public Health. A grade school programme is in the planning. The following proposals were made: to inform, widely and objectively, the grade-school population, the teachers and the parents; to take action above all in the primary schools, which constitute an ideal setting to reach these children, who are potential smokers, before they become long-term smokers.

One Health is defined as the collaborative effort of multiple health science professions and their related disciplines and institutions to attain optimal health for people, domestic animals, wildlife, plants, and the environment. This study aimed to present different strategies of Algerian Veterinary Services to manage Staphylococcusaureus (S. aureus) health risk factors. Staphylococcus aureus is an animal and human opportunistic bacterium that causes a wide range of severe diseases. Its danger lies in its potential for transmission from animals to humans and conversely. This zoonotic potential is now well recognized, with the consideration that contact with animals is one of the most important factors influencing colonization and infection in human populations. Given the importance and interdependence of human and animal health linked to S. aureus health risk factors, it is logical to take a One Health approach when addressing this problem. It can be concluded some measures are necessary for the management of S. aureus in food hygiene. These may include launching a control and monitoring plan for residues in food of animal origin and animal feed, as well as a PASCRA plan for the detection of contaminants, such as antibiotic residues, or monitoring of contamination levels in live animals and food products of animal origin at different stages of the production chain.

roduction. Undernutrition is a major public health problem and has many consequences for the elderly health. Objectives. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of malnutrition in an elderly population hospitalized in the Internal Medicine Service of the University Hospital of Sidi Bel Abbes (western Algeria). Population and methods. This was a cross-sectional study, including patients aged 65 years and older. The evaluation was based on the anthropometric parameters (body weight, height, body mass index (BMI)), serum albumin level, and the score of Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) screening. Results. The study included 129 patients, who 49.61% were females. The average age was 75.1±7.5 years. The most common disease was diabetes (51%) followed by hypertension (49%). The average stay length in the hospital was 7.3±3.4 days, and a mean drugs intake of 4.1±1.9 drugs per patient. The average BMI was 23.7±4.8 kg/m2 with an average albumin rate of 34.1±6.7 g/L. The screening tools such as BMI and serum albumin revealed respectively 26.2% and 58.9% of malnourished elderly. The score of MNA screening showed that 51.2% of patients were at risk of malnutrition and 37.2% were malnourished. Conclusion. The nutritional risk and the prevalence of malnutrition for this elderly population are significant and constitute a real public health problem.

Background:The frequencies of the overweight and the obesity are in increase at the children in the world, what led the World Health Organization (WHO) to speak about real epidemic. The situation of Algeria is badly known until now. The main objective of the study was to esteem the distribution, in a population of children and teenagers schooled to Tébessa by the corpulence esteemed by the Body Mass Index (BMI). Methods:All 4-13-year-old children attending public schools in the Commune of Tébessa were measured and weighed during a systematic health check at school from 1995 to 2007. BMI was calculated and plotted on standardized BMI for age tables, using the International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) references. Result: The frequency of the overweight and obesity according to the references of the IOTF was estimated at 11.37 p hundred between 1995 and 2007. This prevalence passed from 17.39 % in 1995 /98 to 8.49 % in 2005 /2007. The older children from 10 to 13 years are the only ones which presented an evolution during this period. The girls are touched by obesity than the boys. Conversely the boys are touched slightly by the overweight than the girls. A significant decrease or in the prevalence of overweight and obesity was observed during this period in both boys and girls. Conclusion: These observations from Tébessa, showing a reduction in obesity and overweight in among the girls and boy. However, follow-ups of the stoutness of the children are useful in order to prevent this epidemic.

In Algeria, as in all countries in the developing world, obesity has become more and more common in adults, suggesting a worsening of risk factors for cardiovascular disease and diabetes for these generations. This study aims to assess the prevalence of obesity by anthropometry in adults in the city of Constantine over the year 2010-2011, and to explore its relationship with certain determining factors. A cross-sectional study with cluster sampling and stratification on sex allowed us to estimate the frequency of all categories of BMI. For this purpose, 320 adults living in Constantine were interviewed. In 2011, the prevalence of obesity was 35.84%. Women are more affected by obesity than men (40.83% vs. 22.08%). The prevalence of abdominal obesity, according to IDF, was 81.0% for women vs. 56.2% for men; according to NCEP ATP III, it was 64.3% in women vs. 35.9% in men. Obesity is more common in families of low socioeconomic status. Similarly, level of education and obesity are inversely correlated. People who have a sedentary lifestyle are more likely to be obese than those who are physically active. Obesity is a serious condition that results in significant health care costs. There is a need to undertake epidemiological surveillance in childhood. Urgent preventive actions are required. Promotion of a healthy balanced diet and physical exercise is a priority in the prevention of obesity.

The Laval University has been involved in many French-speaking African countries for teaching and intervention programs in occupational health and safety. In Algeria and Zaire, seminars for public and occupational health physicians have been aimed at allowing participants to gain the skills, knowledge and attitudes required to implement medico-environmental surveillance programs in industry. These teaching programs were presented in a wider perspective of occupational health services. As defined by the International Labor Organisation (ILO), these services should identify occupational risk factors, conceive and implement occupational prevention programs, realize health surveillance activities, monitor health statistics, promote adaptation of work to workers and rehabilitation of disabled workers, realize information and formation programs and, finally, organize first-aid activities. In Zaire, the program was aimed at integrating the occupational health approach in a more global perspective of community health, which means that the participants were able, at the end of the programs, to identify and analyse the main health problems of a given population and to plan, implement, manage and evaluate the health programs required to meet the health needs of the population. Those aspects were considered important, given that 98% of the active manpower in Africa belongs to industrial sectors which are not covered by occupational medicine legislation, that is the agricultural and informal production sectors. These approaches should help reach the World Health Organisation (WHO) goal set for all countries: "Health for all, by the year 2000".

In Algeria Cutaneous Leishmaniasis remain a public health concern, which is endemic in different provinces including Biskra; the highest focus of the dis-ease in the country. There for our aim was to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice on CL among health care physicians in Biskra province. A de-scriptive cross sectional study was carried out among 120 doctors practicing in private and state health centers areas of the eight localities of the prov-ince. Data were collected through a structured self-administered question-naire from December 2018 to March 2019. Questionnaire consisted of ques-tions related to the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of the disease. The most of the staff (98.3%) knew that the Upper limb is a commonly affect-ed body parts. And at risk groups were observed in 0–10 years persons (82.5%). Most of the respondents believed the disease incidence is higher in men than women. Number of lesions varied with single and double lesions being observed in the majority of patients (50%) and (66.7%) respectively. Some believed that autumn was the main peak incidence of the disease. There was also good Knowledge regarding the clinical features. Majority (89.2%) of respondents knew Wound swab for microscopy culture and sensi-tivity as a definitive diagnostic test for CL. However, most of the respondents knew the pentavalent antimony compound (Glucantime) the conventional drugs for treating CL (95.83%). The study results demonstrated that majority of physicians had adequate knowledge about the disease. Having well trained technical personnel is important to empower the public health con-tribution.

At a time when current world events continue to lead many in questioning what gives meaning and quality to life, it gives us great pleasure as co-editors of this special edition of Applied Research in Quality of Life (ARQOL) to present this collection of six outstanding papers representing diversity in both sample profile and focus. This special edition is truly international in scope with qualitative and quantitative studies offering unique and rich insights from approximately 18,000 people (representing age groups from the young to the old) into what it means to live a satisfying and meaningful life. In terms of geography, this special issue is strikingly like an issue of National Geographic as the articles capture life and wellbeing in places from the lower lands of Germany to the high altitude of Bolivia, from the arid Saharan desert of Algeria to the Mediterranean hills of Catalan Spain and to the verdant mountains and valleys of British Columbia, Canada. In terms of methodologies, the issue includes ethnographic methods, as well as multivariate modeling. In sum, diversity and rich data characterize this special issue of ARQOL. Two papers using large-scale sampling focus upon adolescent respondents. “An Investigation of the Relationships Between Spirituality, Health Status and Quality of Life in Adolescents” by Richard Sawatzky, Anne Gadermann and Barbara Pesut is set in British Columbia. Drawing upon a data set of more than 8,000 respondents, Applied Research Quality Life (2009) 4:1–3 DOI 10.1007/s11482-009-9077-7

Brucellosis is a commonly neglected zoonosis but remains a serious public health concern globally. The epidemiological evolution of human brucellosis has changed considerably over the past decades, and the epidemic geography is continuously expanding. Human brucellosis is increasingly emerging and re-emerging, imported from areas in which it is endemic due to travel, immigration, and international trade. The disease continues to be rampant in Asia and Africa, including West Asia, Central Asia, North Africa, and East Africa, with the highest incidences in Syria, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Iran, Algeria, and Kenya. Re-emerging cases are frequently recorded in places where brucellosis has achieved control, such as Bosnia and Herzegovina, Azerbaijan, and USA. In countries with a high disease burden, control and eradication of the disease has been extremely difficult due to livestock farming as the only source of livelihood, unique religious beliefs regarding animals, a nomadic lifestyle, and low socioeconomic levels. Interventions focused on protecting livestock keepers are needed, particularly for those assisting with goat and sheep births and consumption of raw dairy products. Strikingly, in the majority of countries with a high disease burden, each period of several years with a low incidence rate was followed by a subsequent increase in cases, highlighting that continuous investment and surveillance are necessary. In addition, advocacy for the inclusion of brucellosis as a globally mandated reported disease, strict restrictions on animal movement, mandated consumption of pasteurized milk, and health education are needed. The present study will help in forming an evidence-based strategy for international organizations to curb the future spread of brucellosis.

Public health is determined by the interaction of social, cultural and biological factors. Because of this complexity, a multidisciplinary approach is needed when doing research on public health problems. Medical anthropology and epidemiology share a common interest for human behavior and health, so it is especially appropriate for these two disciplines to work together in studying health seeking behavior and the use of health systems. In order to better understand social and cultural factors associated with health seeking behavior, a suitable qualitative research method was needed for use in association with a medical and epidemiological approach in the research program "Use and perception of health systems by children and their family", carried out in Algeria, the Congo (Brazzaville), Morocco, and Togo. Three factors were considered important: coordinating the qualitative and quantitative research methods within a single time frame, involving all members of the multidisciplinary research teams in each country, and producing data accessible and useful to health care professionals and others responsible for health system performance. A case study method based on "natural histories of illness" was adopted, using home interviews of families about a recent illness episode of an under-5 child. There are several advantages to this approach: 1) analysis of illness episodes reveals the totality of the health seeking process, including therapeutic itineraries; 2) families have little difficulty in describing an illness episode in the order events occurred; 3) these accounts are easily understood by health professionals, resembling as they do a "clinical case study" approach; 4) the content is readily available in the form of common discourse for use by health program planners and administrators. The method is thus able to provide information necessary for organizing health services which meet the perceived needs of the population.

يواجه قطاع الرعاية الصحية الوطنية في الوقت الحالي تحديات هائلة متعلقة أساسا بقدرته على الاستجابة لحاجيات المجتمع الصحية. فالنمو السريع في استخدام الموارد المحدودة وتصاعد النفقات الصحية الوطنية بسبب نمو عدد السكان والزيادة في استخدام الرعاية الصحية الفردية، إضافة إلى التطورات الطبية التي فتحت الطريق لتوفير خيارات أكثر للعلاج والتشخيص دفعت بالطلب على الرعاية الصحية للارتفاع. وبالتالي تعد مسألة تحقيق نتائج صحية أكثر بأقل الموارد أهم تحدي تواجهه السلطات العمومية في الجزائر. تحاول هذه الورقة تقييم كفاءة قطاع الرعاية الصحية الوطنية باستخدام دالة الإنتاج (Cobb-Douglas). الكلمات الدالة : الكفاءة التشغيلية، قطاع الرعاية الصحية، النفقات الصحية الوطنية، دالة الإنتاج (Cobb-Douglas). Abstract The national healthcare system is facing at present enormous challenges related mainly to its capacity to respond to the needs of the health community. The rapid growth in the use of limited resources and the escalating of the national health expenditure due to the population growth, the increase in the use of individual healthcare and medical advances that have opened the way to provide more options for treatment and diagnostics prompted the demand for health care to rise. Therefore, the mater of achieving best health outcomes with fewer resources is the most important challenge faced by the public authorities in Algeria. This paper attempts to assess the efficiency of the national health care system using Cobb-Douglas Production function. Key words: Operational efficiency, health care, National Health expenditures , Cobb-Douglas Function.

Leishmaniasis are among the most important vector-borne diseases being endemic in 80 countries where they constitute a major public health concern. The resurgence of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in North Africa and the Middle East reflects the remarkable adaptability of the parasite in a changing environment including population movements, urbanization, and rural development. CL is endemic in Algeria where both forms have been described previously, the sporadic form caused by Leishmania infantum in the north and the classical form caused by L. major in central and southern parts of the country. In 2005, an outbreak of CL occurred in the province of Ghardaia, located in the northern Sahara: 2,040 humans cases were recorded, many of them from urban areas, and a new enzyme variant has been described: L. killicki (MON-301). The latter species coexists sympatrically with L. major MON-25. Both species are transmitted respectively by Phlebotomus sergenti and P. papatasi, suggesting distinct eco-epidemiological patterns and specific distribution area. The aim of this study is to characterize the environmental determinants of CL in the city of Ghardaia by using SPOT images, entomological and epidemiological collected data in order to establish a risk map for the two species. Our results show that CL due to L. killicki seem to be localized in the outskirts of the city, near foothills where the potential reservoir Massoutiera mzabi (Rodentia, Ctenodactylidae) is present, while CL due to L. major is more likely present within the city, more particularly in palm groves and gardens. This study will provide useful informations for local authorities on the respective risk area of both parasites in order to take prevention and mitigation measures to prevent CL outbreaks.

Background: The coronavirus infection (COVID-19) was declared in January 2020 as a public health emergency of international concern. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA), like other parts of the world, suffered from several epidemics over the years. Pharmacists have vital roles to play to prevent the spread of this virus. Objectives: To assess the awareness of COVID-19 amongst pharmacists from countries located in the MENA countries, and to assess their perspectives of their role, barriers, and roles of the educational institutions and pharmaceutical associations in preparing them for their roles during the pandemic. Methods: An online survey was conducted to run a descriptive cross-sectional study in Jordan from 12th to 22th April 2020. The questionnaire was validated and put on Facebook for pharmacists’ recruitment and assessment of their awareness (20 questions with a score out of 20) about epidemics/pandemics and COVID-19, their perceived roles and barriers, and roles of the educational institutions and pharmaceutical associations. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS). Results: Study participants (n= 2589) had a mean age of 29.3 (8.2) years and 1329 (51.5%) were females. Most of the participants were from Egypt 819 (40.8%), Followed by Jordan, Algeria, and Syria. As for the sources of information about coronavirus treatment among the study participants, 60.8% got their information from the social media. Fear as a consequence was identified by the majority of participants (87.7%). The majority of pharmacists identified positive roles for the pharmaceutical association and pharmaceutical associations. Conclusion: Pharmacists from the MENA countries believe they got enough education previously about epidemics/pandemics, and the majority follow on the latest coronavirus updates from social media. Fear was reported as the major barrier that requires resolution by the policymakers. Certain gaps in the awareness about COVID-19 were identified.

Abstract Background Malaria is a public health concern worldwide. A figure of 3.2 billion people is at risk of malaria a report of World Health Organization in 2013. A proportion of 89 and 91 cases of malaria reported during 2015 were respectively attributed to malaria cases and malaria deaths in Sub-Saharan Africa. Different countries in Africa are reported by Global Forum report to eradicate malaria including Algeria whereby in 2017 was asked a free malaria certificate. Rwanda is among the Sub-Saharan Africa located in East Africa. The several reports indicate that from 2001 to 2011, malaria cases increased considerably especially in Eastern and Southern Province with five million cases. The affected districts included Bugesera in the Eastern and Gisagara in the Southern Province of Rwanda with a share of 41% of the country prevalence in 2014 and during 2017-2018 a figure of 11 deaths was attributed to malaria and both Gisagara and Bugesera Districts were the high burdened. Methodology The RDHS 2014-2015 data was used for the study and a cross-sectional survey was used in which two clusters were considered both Gisagara and Bugesera Districts in the Southern and Eastern Province of Rwanda. Bivariate analysis was used to determine the significant predictors with malaria and reduced logistic regression model was used. Results The results of the study show that not having mosquito bed nets for sleeping is 0.264 times less likely of having malaria than those who have mosquito bed nets in Gisagara District. In Bugesera District, living in low altitude is 2.768 times more likely associated with the risk of getting malaria than living in high altitude. Conclusion The results of the study concluded that environmental and geographical factor such as low altitude is the risk factor associated with malaria than the high altitude in Bugesera District. While not having mosquito bed nets for sleeping is the protective factor for malaria than those who have it in Gisagara District. On the other hand, socio-economic and demographic characteristics do not have any effect with malaria on the results of the study.

Background: Leishmaniasis remains one of the most neglected diseases in the world, affecting mainly the underdeveloped countries. In their cutaneous form, they constitute a public health problem in Morocco. Their eco-endemicity evolves over time and differs from one region, province or locality to another. The endemic foci of Ain Bni Mathar, Bni Mathar, and Ouled Sidi Abdelhakem to cutaneous leishmaniasis at Leishmania major maintain the persistence of cases in the province of Jerada. The present work aims at the epidemiological and ecological study of the factors determining this persistence in these three endemic foci. Methods and materials: A retrospective descriptive study of LCM cases and their determinants in the endemic foci of “Ain Bni Mathar”, “Bni Mathar” and “Ouled Sidi Abdelhakem” in Jerada Province between 2010 and 2016. A Prospective ecological study of the vector (phlebotome) and the reservoir (rodent) in the endemic foci of “Bni Mathar” and “Ouled Sidi Abdelhakem” during the second and third quarter of 2017. Results: The endemic foci studied accounted for 76% of the cases (223 cases). The sex ratio (M/F) is 1.47 with a predominantly young population (70% of cases do not exceed 40 years) and 82% of them are from the rural population. 57.85% of the reported cases have multiple lesions (more than one scar), mostly in the lower limbs (68.13%), upper (57.84%) and face (27.8%). LCMs change cyclically with a peak in December/January. The spatial evolution shows a concentration of LCM cases in the Morocco-Algeria border belt and the peri-urban perimeter of Ain Bni Mathar. The entomological study allowed us to identify as vector Phlebotomus Papatasi with a density peak in August. The rodent study identified Meriones Shawi as a reservoir primarily at the grain fields adjacent to the infected foci. Conclusion: This study showed us that actions target the physical factors of control of leishmaniasis (elimination of manure deposits, drainage of stagnant water, etc.), geographical accessibility (care, control, etc.), urban perimeters, health monitoring of peri-urban agricultural development projects and hygiene of the habitat.

Africa is the third most populous continent in the world, with an estimated population of 1 billion people. The number of cancer cases has been estimated in approximately 850 thousand people in the African continent [1]. The most common cancers verified in women were breast, cervical, liver, and colorectal cancers. For men, the most common were prostate, liver, Kaposi sarcoma, and colorectal cancers [2]. This information was obtained from population-based cancer registries and death-certified data bases. However, there are few cancer registries in the African continent that have produced continuous data throughout the last twenty years. One of the reasons is the obvious difficulty of the public health system to maintain cancer registries; current priorities in Africa include the availability of treatment, access to drugs, and existence of functional rehabilitation units. In volume X of Cancer Incidence in Five Continents, cancer incidence data for the African population originated from eight population-based cancer registries (namely: Algeria, Setif; Egypt, Gharbiah; Libya, Benghazi; Malawi, Blantyre; South Africa, PROMEC; Tunisia, North; Uganda, Kyadondo county; and Zimbabwe, Harare). The total population coverage is approximately 18 million people, with data until 2007—representing less than 0.18% of the African population. One of the required parameters for the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) to publish cancer registry data is sufficient data quality. Of the aforementioned registries, three do not extract data from death certificates, and the proportion of microscopic verification by cancer site varies significantly (e.g., ranging between 0 and 90% for cervical cancer) [3]. The lack of reliable data on cancer is an indicator of the country’s situation in terms of information, facilities for cancer treatment, and human resources. The evaluation of quality control indicators can provide insights on local conditions for cancer diagnosis and care. Low data quality not only signals the absent collaboration between reporting sources and the inability of the registrar to perform quality

Abstract Introduction Poliomyelitis, which disappeared in Tunisia 30 years ago, should be the second disease to be eradicated after smallpox. However, a few endemic foci persist and its recent detection in some regions is causing great concern. On January 11, 2023, Tunisia received an alert with the notification of 2 polio cases in Algeria, the second of which was detected in November 2022 at about 400 KM from Tunisia. The objective of this study is to describe the results of the investigations following this alert as well as the prevention and response measures triggered. Methods We conducted an active search for acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases in all governorates and a retrospective search for possible unreported AFP cases hospitalized from November 1, 2022. Vaccination coverage was verified for catch-up if incomplete vaccination. Surveillance of poliovirus shedding in patients with primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) was also conducted as well as other public health measures. Results As of April 20, 2023, 38 AFP cases have been reported through active search. Retrospective hospital-based surveillance has revealed 31 cases. In addition, 3142 children with deficient vaccination were identified, distributed differently by region. All of them were caught up with Inactivated polio vaccine (IPV). A total of 90 PIDs were followed up. The replacement of the Oral polio vaccine (OPV) dose at 6 months by IPV in the national immunization schedule as well as a request for verification of the possibility of using the new OPV2 in Tunisia and of the required requirements were made. Conclusions The risk of poliomyelitis resurgence in our country is not negligible. Sustained vigilance is necessary, particularly through ensuring high vaccination coverage and effective surveillance to rapidly detect any imported case. This is essential in view of the global context and the existence of outbreaks especially in certain African countries with which several exchanges and migratory flows remain. Key messages • The Poliomyelitis alert on Tunisian borders in January 2023 is a real threat, that should also be taken into consideration by neighboring countries. • Sustained vigilance is necessary, particularly through effective surveillance and appropriate vaccination strategy.

To the Editor, The ongoing coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly impacted the delivery of routine welfare and essential health services in most of the affected nation owing to the enormous caseload and the ability of the disease to spread rapidly within and beyond national boundaries. Till date, a total of 1,210,956 cases and 67,594 deaths have been reported across the 211 nations wherein cases have been reported and it amounts to a case fatality rate of 5.58%.[1] The European region and the American region are the most affected accounting for 54% and 29% of the global caseload, while the African region has contributed the least share of global cases (0.54%), but the scenario is changing with each day.[1] COVID-19 in African region In the African region, a total of 44 nations have reported cases till date, of which the worrisome concern is that 32 nations have reported local transmission.[1] From the public health perspective, it puts an added pressure on the health authorities, as there is always a potential risk of onset of community-based transmission which can overwhelm the health system. In the region, South Africa and Algeria have the greatest number of cases, but Algeria has reported the maximum number of deaths. COVID-19 in Nigeria In Nigeria, since the detection of the first case on February 27, 2020, a total of 208 cases and four deaths has been reported.[2,3] It is important to note that Nigeria remains one among the 3three nations who have not yet been certified for polio elimination and simultaneously is also fighting against the outbreak of Ebola virus disease in the recent past.[2,3] As the nation has not reported any wild polio case in more than 3 years and their certification is due in the latter half of this year, the plan is that the existing infrastructure will be merged with the national health system to strengthen the process of health-care delivery.[3] Acknowledging the fact that Nigeria is the most populous nation in the region, and the fact that COVID-19 spreads by close contact and droplets, it is high time that the situation should not be ignored, especially because the local transmission has already been reported.[2,3] The unprecedented disease requires an unprecedented response from the national authorities and it has been decided to mobilize all the available resources, especially pertaining to the polio elimination program (namely, human resources, surveillance mechanism, technical assistance, logistics, and the existing community framework) in the nation.[3,4] Utilizing the framework of polio program As contact tracing has a special role in interrupting the chain of transmission, more than 6500 contacts have been tracked in the nation with the help of the staff who were employed in the polio program till date.[3] To bridge the gap pertaining to awareness of the disease, clear myths, and inform the people about modes of transmission and prevention of the disease, the staff from polio program has been highly active in ensuring provision of precise, clear, and timely information to the members of the community.[3] Moreover, with reference to the evidence obtained from nations who have been able to contain the outbreak in their settings, the importance of community engagement has been emphasized. Thus, the staff has been really calculated in their approach and has targeted the various communities or religious leaders through the framework which has been established as a part of control of polio or Ebola virus disease.[2,3,4] At the same time, these staff members have been actively involved in the various prevention and control activities of COVID-19, such as disease surveillance, community engagement, risk communication, laboratory tests, and at the point of entries.[3,4,5] Further, the staff has been advised to use the various innovations adopted as a part of polio elimination, including the use of mobile phones for performing real-time tracking and reporting, and it plays an important role in ensuring overall coordination of outbreak response activities in the nation.[3] Even though all these activities are going on in full pace, there is an immense need to continue the activities and strengthen the capacity of the nation to prepare for a large-scale community transmission, and thus, there is a definite need for financial assistance to fund the ongoing activities. CONCLUSION In conclusion, in the containment of the COVID-19 pandemic, the kind of support which has been extended by the existing framework of polio control in Nigeria is worth taking inspiration. Among these times of public health emergencies and scarcity of resources, each and every nation has to work toward the mobilization of the existing resources and not allows the disease to enter into the community transmission phase.

Background Gender disparities in health care are pervasive worldwide, including the field of rheumatology in Africa, where there is a scarcity of rheumatologists. The heterogeneity of these disparities underscores the importance of addressing unmet needs at a regional level. We aimed to determine the number of rheumatologists in Africa, the gender distribution in the public and private sector, and participation in academia and leadership roles. Methods In this cross-sectional study, fully qualified rheumatologists in Africa were chosen by leadership position and role in national societies to distribute an online survey to members of the African League of Associations for Rheumatology (AFLAR). Data on the number of rheumatologists registered per country or in national rheumatology societies, gender distribution in private and the public sector, and academic involvement were collected from countries that are members of the AFLAR. Gender was self-reported in the survey as man, woman, or prefer not to disclose. Findings Between Feb 2 and March 16, 2022, we collected data from 44 (81%) of 54 African countries. We identified 2970 rheumatologists providing health-care services to 1·19 billion people in 44 countries, representing 0·25 rheumatologists per 100 000 population. There was a wide variation in the distribution of rheumatologists with 1·86 rheumatologists per 100 000 people in Tunisia and no rheumatologists recorded in 15 African countries. Most rheumatologists were from North Africa, with 2592 (87%) from four countries (Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia). 1772 (60%) of 2970 rheumatologists were women. 791 (71%) of 1112 rheumatologists involved in academia were women, 1041 (65%) of 1610 rheumatologists practicing in the public sector were women, and 201 (27%) of 756 in the private sector were women. 18 (41%) of 44 countries had a national society and women served as current or previous presidents in five of the 18 national societies. Interpretation This study highlights the low number and unequal distribution of rheumatologists in Africa. Women predominate and are well represented in academic settings, but not in leadership positions. AFLAR, national societies, and health-care policy makers need to develop a strategy to increase the number of rheumatologists at national and regional level. Gender inequality needs to be addressed to ensure that women are adequately represented and occupy leadership positions within national societies. Funding None.

Abstract Background Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common chronic rheumatic disease in childhood. There is a disparity in the prevalence of Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) subsets between different geographical areas or ethnic groups. In Arabic and African populations, data describing JIA are scarce. However, the epidemiological studies remain the best tool to understand the disease and to improve its management. Objectives To determine subtype, frequency, demographic and clinical features of JIA in Batna -Algeria- and to compare the findings with other JIA populations worldwide. Methods A multicentre retrospective descriptive study was conducted in Batna health centers (public and private sectors), over a seven-year period from January 2013 to December 2019, based on data collected on JIA patients. As public sector source, we referred to the department of pediatrics of the university hospital center (CHU Benflis Touhami Batna), and as private sector source, we referred to private adult rheumatologists based in Batna. The studied variables were: gender, age at the initial symptoms, age at diagnosis, JIA subtype based on International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR) criteria, symptoms at onset, disease duration at the latest follow up, presence of uveitis, auto antibodies (antinuclear antibodies, Rheumatoid Factor and anti-CCP) pattern, joint imaging results, JIA status at the time of enrolment and the latest follow-up. Results The study included a total of 69 cases of JIA that were being followed in Batna health centers over the study period. The female to male ratio was 1.83. The median age at diagnosis was 9 years (range 1–16). Forty-six patients (72%) were diagnosed within the first year after disease onset. At the latest follow-up, the median disease duration onset was 1 year (range 1–8 years). There were 34 oligoarthritis (49.3%), 9(13%) rheumatoid factor (RF) negative polyarticular JIA, 8(11.6%) RF positive polyarticular JIA, 6(8.7%), systemic arthritis, 6(8.7%) enthesitis-related arthritis, 3(4.3%) psoriatic arthritis and 3(4.3%) undifferentiated arthritis. Nine patients (18.7%) were anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) positive, and 21 patients (30.4%) had indeterminate ANA status. Conclusion Oligoarthritis was the most common JIA subtype in our study. The RF positive polyarthritis frequency was higher than in literature. Prospective multicentre studies are necessary to better identify the JIA peculiarities in our country.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a lot of challenges to the globalized world. Globally, it has decimated over six million lives. Since 2019, it has shook the world in many respects, especially, it disrupted economies and societies and halted the majority of human endeavor. Commentaries and reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the media showed an alarming situation that could be damning in low and middle income countries. Economic pundits and global public health experts also anticipated doom and gloom for African countries. However, in terms of mortality, the Americas, Europe and Asia have suffered more losses. Irrespective of these loses in Europe, Africa’s case needs better appreciation within our contemporary historical discourse. The burgeoning challenge of the COVID disease and mortalities arising thereby, among other things, necessitated the introduction of policies based on the WHO’s historical understanding of how the world has dealt with pandemics in the past. Some of the strategies that were deployed to fight the pandemic included hand washing under running water with soap, the use of alcohol based hand sanitizers, the wearing of nose masks, social distancing, self-isolation as well as partial and complete lockdowns of states and communities. The major economic disruption really came about as a result of many lockdown policies that were implemented by several countries in Africa without proper reference to their own societal contexts. These issues notwithstanding, it is important to emphasize that the extent of the impact on different communities differed to a large extent, even though there were similar levels of the nature of the infection and the general economic outlook among the global community. This current contribution on the COVID-19 discourse used political economy and economic shock as bases to highlight the extent of the impact of the disease by highlighting examples from respective countries in Africa, namely, Ghana, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Algeria and South Africa. In particular, the impact of policies like lock-down on some of these African countries are highlighted for further discussions in future empirical research. The study relied on contemporary historical evidence from multidisciplinary sources on health, economics, policy, and other related studies on epidemiology, public health, health education and promotion, reports and sources from the World Health Organization (WHO). Specifically, the authors have used published research in Lancet, the International Journal of Infectious Diseases, BMJ Global Health, Frontiers in Public Health and the Pan African Medical Journal. The others were African Development Review, Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives, Africa Spectrum and International Journal of Financial Research including several other empirical researches. In attempting a social and economic interpretation based on contemporary historical sense, the findings of this present study suggest that African political actors or leaders should make persistent or steady efforts to strengthen the economies of their states to lessen economic shocks and social costs that come about as a result of pandemics such as the COVID-19. It also identified the fact that within the globalized space, application of policies from other countries including international organizations should not be devoid of context.

To understand the awareness of schistosomiasis control knowledge among people going to Africa in Taizhou City, to provide insights into the development of control measures for imported schistosomiasis.During the period from July to October, 2019, a face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted among people that had gone to African countries between 2015 and 2018 and return to China now, including awareness of schistosomiasis control knowledge, type of living and drinking water and contact with river and lake water.A total of 573 peoples going to Africa were investigated, and 572 eligible questionnaires were recovered. Among the 572 people interviewed, senior high school and above was the predominant education level (509 people, 89.0%), labor was the predominant aim (543 people, 94.9%), and Angola (52.3%) and Algeria (15.9%) were predominant destiny countries. There were 7.2% of the interviewees hearing about African schistosomiasis, 19.8% knowing infections by contact with infested water, and 36 people with a history of contact with river and lake water. In addition, 270 interviewees used running water as drinking water and 276 used running water as living water.The awareness rate of schistosomiasis control knowledge is low among people going to Africa in Taizhou City. Health education pertaining to schistosomiasis control is required to be improved among those going to Africa in Taizhou City to increase the awareness of schistosomiasis prevention and avoid parasitic infections.［摘要］目的 了解泰州市赴非人员血吸虫病防治知识知晓情况, 为制定输入性血吸虫病防控措施提供依据。方法 2019 年 7—10 月, 采用面对面访谈的形式对 2015—2018 年去过非洲国家且现已回国的人员开展问卷调查, 内容包括血吸虫病 防治知识了解情况及非洲居留期间生活用水、饮用水使用情况和河、湖水接触史。结果 累计调查赴非人员573人, 其 中有效问卷 572 份。赴非人员文化程度以高中及以下为主 (509 人, 占 89.0%), 赴非目的以务工为主 (543人, 占 94.9%), 赴非主要国家为安哥拉 (52.3%) 和阿尔及利亚 (15.9%)。听说过非洲血吸虫病者占7.2%, 知道血吸虫病是通过接触疫水 感染者占 19.8%, 36 人接触过河、湖水。270 人饮用自来水, 276 人使用自来水作为生活用水。结论 泰州市赴非人员血 吸虫病防治知识知晓率较低; 应加强泰州市赴非人员血吸虫病防治健康教育, 以提高防范意识、避免血吸虫感染。.

BIRMINGHAM, UK— Public and professional enthusiasm should be reprioritized more towards the resources and organization of health care, rather than the ‘dazzle’ of specific new treatments, few of which could hope to achieve the level of improvement in cancer survival that hard evidence shows can be brought about by improving the overall cancer management landscape. So said Michel Coleman, MD, MSc, Professor of Epidemiology and Vital Statistics at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, speaking here at the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Cancer Conference.Figure: MICHEL COLEMAN, MD, MSC, said he wasn't against the introduction of new effective drugs in general but that it was important not to lose sight of the fact that better availability of known management techniques can deliver significant improvements in cancer outcomes, as well as to recognize what the data tell about the key influences on outcome.Dr. Coleman began by describing the reactions of British cancer experts to results from a series of big international studies showing an unexpected “survival deficit” despite the universal availability of care through Britain's National Health Service: “In 1995 when the first international comparison of cancer survival, the Eurocare Study, was published, with data from 12 countries including England and Scotland, the fact that survival in those countries was lower even than the average in Europe—never mind than the best—was a considerable shock to clinicians as well as to politicians, and it woke up the media and the public.” The UK was also significantly trailing the US in terms of cancer outcomes, although those data were not at the time available in the form of a direct comparison, which has now been published in CONCORD—i.e., cancer survival in five continents: a worldwide population-based study—the most recent of Dr. Coleman's investigations. Frustratingly, it emerged from the Eurocare studies that not many of the reasons for the “survival deficit” were caused by factors within the control of clinicians. In an interview during the Birmingham conference he described the disbelief with which the data were initially received. And he said: “It took a while—and I'm talking five or six years—before successive studies, and other more detailed studies, were available to show that these differences in survival were not only generally real but also attributable, not just to the competence of clinicians but also to the stage at which patients present with disease, to the efficiency with which the health care system is organized, to the accessibility of diagnostic equipment, whether or not there is radiotherapy equipment around—all of those particular examples were eventually shown to be short or defective in the UK.” The UK now has a National Cancer Plan to cancer control, which involves much more than just treatment, Professor Coleman noted. He said he certainly wasn't against the introduction of new effective drugs in general but that it was important not to lose sight of the fact that better availability of known management techniques can deliver significant improvements in cancer outcomes, and that we need to recognize what the data tell about the most important influences on outcome. For example, he continued, early diagnosis of the very common epithelial malignancies such as breast, bowel, or lung cancer is at least as important (if not more so) than any specific life-extending drug, and the need to measure up in terms of cost-effectiveness is a fact of life in all countries. His just-released data from CONCORD reports on the variations of outcomes in breast, colorectal, and prostate cancers. “We discovered very wide ranges in survival, typically the lowest in Algeria and in Brazil, but also in the poorer Eastern European nations. We also found substantial differences between blacks and whites in the USA,” he said. “And although the analysis of the study cannot pinpoint specific reasons, interpretation of the results suggest that much of the difference in survival between those countries is likely to be attributable to investment in health systems and health care resources more generally and certainly not just in terms of access to drugs.”

Diphtheria is an endemic disease of public health importance in about 50ncountries large and small, from Afghanistan to Vietnam, Brazil, China and India.nDuring the period of the massive epidemic in the former Soviet Union describednin this thesis, outbreaks were also reported in Algeria, Ecuador, Iraq, LaonPeople's Republic, Mongolia, Papua New Guinea, Sudan and Thailand. Thisnstudy examines the effectiveness of the implementation of diphtheria epidemicncontrol strategies across the Newly Independent States (NIS) of the FormernSoviet Union and particularly in Moldova and recommends approaches for thencontrol of future outbreaks.n n After nearly twenty years of low incidence (IR= 0.36 per 100,000 1982-89)nfollowing the introduction of immunization, the diphtheria epidemic began in thencollapsing Union of Soviet Socialistic Republics in 1990. By 1991-1992 thenepidemic had spread to all 15 of the successor Newly Independent States withnsuccessive increases of the IR per 100,000 (0.50 in 1990, 1.09 in 1991 , 1.98 inn1992). In 1993 and 1994 the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendednthe rapid implementation of a strategy of population immunization, antibioticnprophylaxis of close contacts of cases, and the treatment of cases.nImplementation was delayed across the NIS for a variety of reasons.n n A key issue for countries was the choice of control strategy. By 1995-6nAzerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Moldova had fully adopted thenWHO/UNICEF recommendations. Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, and Lithuania laternreported implementing the WHO/UNICEF strategy, though with modifications.nThe diphtheria epidemic was treated as a retrospective cohort study. Relativenrisk comparing country incidence case rates were estimated as a proxynmeasure of the performance of other NIS countries against Russia as thenepidemic baseline. The diphtheria epidemic appeared to have begun in Russianin 1990-1 and by 1991-2 had spread to all of the NIS. Incidence rates did notnreturn to the 1980s pre-epidemic level until January 1997. In Russia, alreadynhigh incidence rates (IR= 16 per 100,000, 1993-4), increased nearly two-fold inn1994-5 (IR=31.4 per 100,000), before declining to 16.7 per 100,000 in then1995-6 diphtheria season. All NIS countries, except for Tajikistan, had lowernincidence rate and relative risk compared to Russia over the same period.n n During 1995-6 only three countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Moldova),nattempted to implement the WHO/UNICEF recommended strategy, and onen(Moldova) was successful. Russia and eleven other NIS countries tried tonimplement other strategies. The effect of control measures in five of thesencountries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania) was about thensame as in Russia, while eight countries (Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan,nKyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan) experienced lessnoptimal control, including five countries which experienced increased incidencenrates in 1995-6 (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine,nUzbekistan).n n Moldova is surrounded on three sides by Ukraine. Ukraine and Moldovanimplemented very different control strategies. Except for the 1994-5 epidemicnpeak, when no control measures were being implemented in Moldova, thenrelative risk was lower in Moldova (1993-4 RR=0.24, 95% Cl 0.19, 0.32. 1994-n5 RR=1 .64, 1.50, 1.78. 1995-6 RR=0.50, 95% Cl 0.44, 0.58. all years pl0.001).nConcerns were raised in Ukraine that the limited effect on diphtheria outbreakncontrol was due to the use of qlow efficacy western vaccinesq, though it seemsnmore likely that it was an effect of the control strategies implementedn n This study confirms the effectiveness of the WHO/UNICEF strategy of rapidnpopulation immunization, and antibiotic prophylaxis of close contacts of cases innMoldova.n n As a consequence of the successful global childhood immunization programs,nlarge cohorts of unprotected adult populations exist throughout the world andnare at risk of diphtheria in the event of its reintroduction. The rapidnimplementation of the WHO/UNICEF diphtheria control strategy of populationnimmunization with anti-diphtheria vaccine, and antibiotic prophylaxis of casesnand close contacts must be the highest priority in the event of a diphtherianoutbreak.n

Thus, malaria is not a specific pathogen although few would argue that Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax should be the focus of eradication efforts. Three species, Plasmodium knowlesi, Plasmodium brasilianum and Plasmodium simium are zoonoses and cannot be considered as viable targets for eradication. The Commission ought to have identified which Plasmodium species were to be the targets for eradication. The use of the term malaria eradication is thus terminologically incorrect and perpetuates confusion.3Molyneux DH Hopkins DR Zagaria N Disease eradication, elimination and control: the need for accurate and consistent usage.Trends Parasitol. 2004; 20: 347-351Summary Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (62) Google Scholar Malaria eradication needs qualification and should therefore be retracted to the accepted definition so all disease programmes comply with terminology be it eradication, elimination, or control. Malaria is not a specific pathogen. Terminology should be aligned with other infectious agents targeted for eradication—polio, guinea worm, and yaws.4WHO Collaborating Center for Dracunculiasis EradicationCDCGuinea worm wrap up 262.https://www.cartercenter.org/resources/pdfs/news/health_publications/guinea_worm/wrap-up/262.pdfDate: Aug 8, 2019Date accessed: September 21, 2019Google Scholar If the Commission means eradication it should choose the target Plasmodium species. I declare no competing interests. Malaria eradicationThe Lancet Commission on Malaria Eradication1 is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the Commission's report reflects the Foundation's approach to global health,2 presenting the three main challenges to eradication as operational, biological, and financial.1 However, deep-rooted political and economic factors are the key to understanding the global distribution of malaria: Nigeria (53·7 million cases, 25%) and DR Congo (25·0 million, 11%) account for over a third of the total burden of global malaria;1 and it is not a coincidence that Nigeria (95·9 million) and DR Congo (63·7 million) are also the two countries with the highest number of people living in extreme poverty —defined as living on under US$1·90 a day. Full-Text PDF Malaria eradicationOne could argue that, considering the proliferation of the Lancet Commissions, a commission about malaria eradication was inevitable. Still, it qualifies as classic bypassing that the Lancet Commission on Malaria Eradication1 worked in parallel to the pre-existing WHO Strategic Advisory Group on Malaria Eradication (SAGme).2 This duplication of efforts and findings has tilted the discussions around the Commission's report and manifesto1 towards two narrow issues. First, there was predominantly a sense of relief to see some degree of agreement between the Commission and SAGme. Full-Text PDF Malaria eradicationWe welcome the Lancet Commission on Malaria Eradication's bold call to action in their report advocating for the global eradication of malaria by 2050.1 We are encouraged by the message and agree with the necessity for eradication. Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) remain the frontline treatment for uncomplicated malaria. Faced with the rise of artemisinin resistance,2,3 do ACTs remain an effective tool in our arsenal? The short and clear answer based on prevailing evidence is yes, as long as the partner drug is chosen correctly. Full-Text PDF Malaria eradication within a generation: ambitious, achievable, and necessary50 years after a noble but flawed attempt to eradicate malaria in the mid-20th century, the global malaria community is once again seriously considering eradication. Momentum towards eradication has been building for decades, and more than half of the world's countries are now malaria free. Since 2000, a surge of global progress has occurred, facilitated by the roll-out of new technologies and the substantial growth in political and financial commitment by countries, regions, and their global partners. Full-Text PDF Malaria eradicationWe do not agree with the conclusion of the Lancet Commission, that global malaria eradication is achievable by 2050.1 Although shrinking the malaria map from the periphery through country by country elimination appears to be feasible as shown by Sri Lanka, Argentina, Algeria, and even by the emerging malaria-free certification of China, elimination appears to be rather unrealistic with the available tools and the degree of poverty and weak governance in the majority of countries with high malaria burden of sub-Saharan Africa. Full-Text PDF Malaria eradication – Authors' replyWe thank our colleagues for their thoughtful letters in response to the report of the Lancet Commission on Malaria Eradication.1,2 Full-Text PDF Malaria eradicationWe share the aspirations of the Lancet Commission on Malaria Eradication for attaining eradication worldwide within a generation.1 Nevertheless, we would like to stress the risks arising from setbacks and the importance of regional actions and long-term plans for achieving malaria elimination, as experienced in the Amazon basin.

<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>Background:</h3> In Mozambique, 1.6 million people are living with HIV, and over 60% of the population lives in rural areas lacking access to health services. Mobile health clinics, implemented in 2013 in 2 provinces, are beginning to offer antiretroviral therapy (ART) and basic primary care services. Prior to introduction of the mobile health clinics in the communities, we performed a rapid ethnographic assessment to understand barriers to accessing HIV care and treatment services and acceptability and potential use of the mobile health clinics as an alternative means of service delivery. <h3>Methods:</h3> We conducted assessments in Gaza province in January 2013 and in Zambezia Province in April–May 2013 in districts where mobile health clinic implementation was planned. Community leaders served as key informants, and chain-referral sampling was used to recruit participants. Interviews were conducted with community leaders, health care providers, traditional healers, national health system patients, and traditional healer patients. Interviewees were asked about barriers to health services and about mobile health clinic acceptance. <h3>Results:</h3> In-depth interviews were conducted with 117 participants (Gaza province, n = 57; Zambezia Province, n = 60). Barriers to accessing health services included transportation and distance-related issues (reliability, cost, and travel time). Participants reported concurrent use of traditional and national health systems. The decision to use a particular health system depended on illness type, service distance, and lack of confidence in the national health system. Overall, participants were receptive to using mobile health clinics for their health care and ability to increase access to ART. Hesitations concerning mobile health clinics included potentially long wait times due to high patient loads. Participants emphasized the importance of regular and published visit schedules and inclusion of community members in planning mobile health clinic services. <h3>Conclusion:</h3> Mobile health clinics can address many barriers to uptake of HIV services, particularly related to transportation issues. Involvement of community leaders, providers, traditional healers, and patients, as well as regularly scheduled mobile clinic visits, are critical to successful service delivery implementation in rural areas.

Gaza has long had water and sanitation challenges, but today it is in a state of emergency. Its aquifer is polluted and depleted, and more than 108,000 cubic meters of untreated sewage flow daily from Gaza into the Mediterranean Sea. The authors describe the relationship between Gaza's water problems and its energy challenges, examine the implications of the water crisis for public health, and recommend steps to avert a regional disaster.

In low-income settings, cancer is often diagnosed in advanced stages due to late presentation. Good public awareness of cancer signs and symptoms has a positive impact on the time patients take before they present to healthcare professionals. Therefore, this study examined public knowledge of cancer signs and symptoms as well as risk factors in Gaza.This was a cross-sectional study. Participants were recruited from adult visitors (≥18 years) to governmental hospitals covering all five governorates of Gaza, and adolescent students (15 to 17 years) from 10 high schools in corresponding locations. An Arabic version of the Cancer Awareness Measure (CAM) was completed in a face-to-face interview. It described demographic data and knowledge of: cancer prevalence, age-related risk, signs and symptoms as well as risk factors both in recall and recognition questions.Of 3033 participants invited, 2886 completed the CAM (response rate = 95.2%). Adult mean age ± standard deviation was 33.7 ± 11.7 years and that of adolescents was 16.3 ± 0.8 years. Half of the participants (n = 1457, 50.5%) were adolescent (781 females; 53.6%) and 1429 (49.5%) were adult (702 females; 49.1%). About two thirds (n = 1885) thought about cancer as unrelated to age. Only 196 participants (6.8%) identified colorectal cancer as the most common cancer among men. Awareness of cancer signs/symptoms was poor to fair, where 'lump' was most commonly recognized (n = 2227, 77.2%) and 'change of bowel habit' the least (n = 670, 23.2%). Only 217 participants (7.5%) had a good level of recognizing risk factors with 'smoking' being the most identified and 'eating less than five portions of fruits and vegetables a day' the least. There was a higher likelihood for adults to identify most cancer signs/symptoms and risk factors than adolescents, except for recalling 'unexplained pain', 'persistent cough/hoarseness', 'non-healing ulcer', 'smoking', and 'eating less than five portions of fruits and vegetables a day'.Public awareness of cancer signs/symptoms and risk factors needs to improve to facilitate early presentation and diagnosis in Gaza. Combining the delivery of public campaigns with tailored education to population groups, including the youth, may increase their knowledge and maintain its impact.

To date, studies on the outcomes of a shared war reality among mental health professionals (MHPs) in southern Israel have focused only on those residing and working in Otef Gaza. The aim of this study is to determine the impact of different exposure levels to shared trauma on the professional quality of life of MHPs in southern Israel. This study compares the level of secondary traumatic stress, burnout, and compassion satisfaction of social workers from Otef Gaza to social workers living and working in the Beer-Sheva area who experience occasional missile attacks. The Professional Quality of Life Scale was used to examine the level of secondary traumatic stress, burnout, and compassion satisfaction of 125 social workers living and working in the Negev: 72 from Beer-Sheva and 53 from the regional councils of Otef Gaza. No statistically significant differences were found in the three professional quality of life variables between the Otef-Gaza and Beer-Sheva groups. The lack of secondary traumatic stress and burnout differences between the study groups, despite the chronic exposure to terror attacks among the Otef Gaza social workers, may be explained by the strong sense of belonging and support evidenced by many Otef Gaza residents as well as by the comprehensive trauma training MHPs receive for work in the region. The results of this study are important for health policy geared to trauma prevention efforts, moderating the effects of work under shared war reality, and promoting the professional quality of life of MHPs in conflict areas.

The Fourth Global Symposium on Health Systems Research was themed around 'Resilient and responsive health systems for a changing world.' This commentary is the outcome of a panel discussion at the symposium in which the resilience discourse and its use in health systems development was critically interrogated. The 2014-15 Ebola outbreak in West-Africa added momentum for the wider adoption of resilient health systems as a crucial element to prepare for and effectively respond to crisis. The growing salience of resilience in development and health systems debates can be attributed in part to development actors and philanthropies such as the Rockefeller Foundation. Three concerns regarding the application of resilience to health systems development are discussed: (1) the resilience narrative overrules certain democratic procedures and priority setting in public health agendas by 'claiming' an exceptional policy space; (2) resilience compels accepting and maintaining the status quo and excludes alternative imaginations of just and equitable health systems including the socio-political struggles required to attain those; and (3) an empirical case study from Gaza makes the case that resilience and vulnerability are symbiotic with each other rather than providing a solution for developing a strong health system. In conclusion, if the normative aim of health policies is to build sustainable, universally accessible, health systems then resilience is not the answer. The current threats that health systems face demand us to imagine beyond and explore possibilities for global solidarity and justice in health.

Microcystins (MCs) are cyanotoxins produced mainly by freshwater cyanobacteria, which constitute a threat to public health due to their negative effects on humans, such as gastroenteritis and related diseases, including death. In Mozambique, where only 50% of the people have access to safe drinking water, this hepatotoxin is not monitored, and consequently, the population may be exposed to MCs. The few studies done in Maputo and Gaza provinces indicated the occurrence of MC-LR, -YR, and -RR at a concentration ranging from 6.83 to 7.78 µg·L−1, which are very high, around 7 times above than the maximum limit (1 µg·L−1) recommended by WHO. The potential MCs-producing in the studied sites are mainly Microcystis species. These data from Mozambique and from surrounding countries (South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana, Malawi, Zambia, and Tanzania) evidence the need to implement an operational monitoring program of MCs in order to reduce or avoid the possible cases of intoxications since the drinking water quality control tests recommended by the Ministry of Health do not include an MC test. To date, no data of water poisoning episodes recorded were associated with MCs presence in the water. However, this might be underestimated due to a lack of monitoring facilities and/or a lack of public health staff trained for recognizing symptoms of MCs intoxication since the presence of high MCs concentration was reported in Maputo and Gaza provinces.

Second-hand smoke is a major cause of preventable disease and death in the Eastern Mediterranean Region. To assess how second-hand smoke impacts air quality, respirable suspended particles (PM2.5) which are emitted during cigarette and waterpipe smoking, were measured inside and outside of 18 smoking and 5 nonsmoking public venues in Gaza city. Median PM2.5 level inside the smoking venues was 117 microg/m3, which exceeds the WHO guidelines for daily PM2.5 exposure (25 microg/m3) by more than 4-fold. The median level inside the smoking venues (117 microg/m3) was significantly higher than outside the venues (43 microg/m3), and significantly higher than the median level inside non-smoking venues (40 microg/m3). By contrast particulate levels outside non-smoking venues (35 microg/m3) did not differ from the corresponding levels inside (40 microg/m3). To protect employees and the public from second-hand smoke exposure, policies prohibiting sinoking in public niaces are needed in Gaza city.

High-resolution estimates of HIV burden across space and time provide an important tool for tracking and monitoring the progress of prevention and control efforts and assist with improving the precision and efficiency of targeting efforts. We aimed to assess HIV incidence and HIV mortality for all second-level administrative units across sub-Saharan Africa.In this modelling study, we developed a framework that used the geographically specific HIV prevalence data collected in seroprevalence surveys and antenatal care clinics to train a model that estimates HIV incidence and mortality among individuals aged 15-49 years. We used a model-based geostatistical framework to estimate HIV prevalence at the second administrative level in 44 countries in sub-Saharan Africa for 2000-18 and sought data on the number of individuals on antiretroviral therapy (ART) by second-level administrative unit. We then modified the Estimation and Projection Package (EPP) to use these HIV prevalence and treatment estimates to estimate HIV incidence and mortality by second-level administrative unit.The estimates suggest substantial variation in HIV incidence and mortality rates both between and within countries in sub-Saharan Africa, with 15 countries having a ten-times or greater difference in estimated HIV incidence between the second-level administrative units with the lowest and highest estimated incidence levels. Across all 44 countries in 2018, HIV incidence ranged from 2·8 (95% uncertainty interval 2·1-3·8) in Mauritania to 1585·9 (1369·4-1824·8) cases per 100 000 people in Lesotho and HIV mortality ranged from 0·8 (0·7-0·9) in Mauritania to 676·5 (513·6-888·0) deaths per 100 000 people in Lesotho. Variation in both incidence and mortality was substantially greater at the subnational level than at the national level and the highest estimated rates were accordingly higher. Among second-level administrative units, Guijá District, Gaza Province, Mozambique, had the highest estimated HIV incidence (4661·7 [2544·8-8120·3]) cases per 100 000 people in 2018 and Inhassunge District, Zambezia Province, Mozambique, had the highest estimated HIV mortality rate (1163·0 [679·0-1866·8]) deaths per 100 000 people. Further, the rate of reduction in HIV incidence and mortality from 2000 to 2018, as well as the ratio of new infections to the number of people living with HIV was highly variable. Although most second-level administrative units had declines in the number of new cases (3316 [81·1%] of 4087 units) and number of deaths (3325 [81·4%]), nearly all appeared well short of the targeted 75% reduction in new cases and deaths between 2010 and 2020.Our estimates suggest that most second-level administrative units in sub-Saharan Africa are falling short of the targeted 75% reduction in new cases and deaths by 2020, which is further compounded by substantial within-country variability. These estimates will help decision makers and programme implementers expand access to ART and better target health resources to higher burden subnational areas.Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic has escalated the use of telemedicine in both high and low resource settings however its use has preceded this, particularly in conflict-affected settings. Several countries in the WHO Eastern Mediterranean (EMR) region are affected by complex, protracted crises. Though telemedicine has been used in such settings, there has been no comprehensive assessment of what interventions are used, their efficacy, barriers, or current research gaps. Main body A systematic search of ten academic databases and 3 grey literature sources from January 1st 2000 to December 31st 2020 was completed, identifying telemedicine interventions in select EMR conflict-affected settings and relevant enablers and barriers to their implementation. Included articles reported on telemedicine use in six conflict-affected EMR countries (or territories) graded as WHO Health Emergencies: Afghanistan, Gaza, Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen. Data were extracted and narratively synthesised due to heterogeneity in study design and outcomes. Of 3419 articles identified, twenty-one peer-reviewed and three grey literature sources met the inclusion criteria. We analysed these by context, intervention, and evaluation. Context: eight related to Afghanistan, eight to Syria and seven to Iraq with one each in Yemen and Gaza. Most were implemented by humanitarian or academic organisations with projects mostly initiated in the United States or Europe and mostly by physicians. The in-country links were mostly health professionals rather than patients seeking specialist inputs for specialities not locally available. Interventions: these included both SAF (store and forward) and RT (real-time) with a range of specialities represented including radiology, histopathology, dermatology, mental health, and intensive care. Evaluation: most papers were observational or descriptive with few describing quality measures of interventions. Conclusions Telemedicine interventions are feasible in conflict-affected settings in EMR using low-cost, accessible technologies. However, few implemented interventions reported on evaluation strategies or had these built in. The ad hoc nature of some of the interventions, which relied on volunteers without sustained financial or academic investment, could pose challenges to quality and sustainability. There was little exploration of confidentiality, ethical standards, data storage or local healthcare worker and patient acceptability.

The COVID-19 pandemic is a global public health threat of serious concern, especially in conflict settings that face fragility and lack adequate resources and capacities. Gaza suffers from a blockade imposed by the Israeli occupation, environmental deterioration, confiscation of lands, demolition of houses and hospitals, restrictions on movement, lack of control over natural resources, and financial constraints. Gaza's population is consequently living in a poor humanitarian situation with high unemployment rates, poverty, over-crowdedness, and a weak health system. This makes Gaza incredibly fragile and affects its ability to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic effectively. The pandemic is expected to deepen Gaza's systems' fragility, which is already overstretched beyond their limits. This will hinder its capacity to deal with the pandemic, and other pre-existing pressing humanitarian needs. Therefore, in this review, we comprehensively explored Gaza's policy failures and successes related to the COVID-19 preparedness and response by state and non-state actors and recommend potential solutions and alternatives. We have addressed critical issues including the health system, water, sanitation, hygiene, socio-economic, education, food security, and others. In Gaza, effectiveness in combating the COVID-19 pandemic can only come from committed political will, transparency from all regulators, strategic dialogue, comprehensive planning, and active international support.

There is a growing body of evidence that integrated packages of community-based interventions, a form of programming often implemented by NGOs, can have substantial child mortality impact. More countries may be able to meet Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 4 targets by leveraging such programming. Analysis of the mortality effect of this type of programming is hampered by the cost and complexity of direct mortality measurement. The Lives Saved Tool (LiST) produces an estimate of mortality reduction by modelling the mortality effect of changes in population coverage of individual child health interventions. However, few studies to date have compared the LiST estimates of mortality reduction with those produced by direct measurement. Using results of a recent review of evidence for community-based child health programming, a search was conducted for NGO child health projects implementing community-based interventions that had independently verified child mortality reduction estimates, as well as population coverage data for modelling in LiST. One child survival project fit inclusion criteria. Subsequent searches of the USAID Development Experience Clearinghouse and Child Survival Grants databases and interviews of staff from NGOs identified no additional projects. Eight coverage indicators, covering all the project’s technical interventions were modelled in LiST, along with indicator values for most other non-project interventions in LiST, mainly from DHS data from 1997 and 2003. The project studied was implemented by World Relief from 1999 to 2003 in Gaza Province, Mozambique. An independent evaluation collecting pregnancy history data estimated that under-five mortality declined 37% and infant mortality 48%. Using project-collected coverage data, LiST produced estimates of 39% and 34% decline, respectively. LiST gives reasonably accurate estimates of infant and child mortality decline in an area where a package of community-based interventions was implemented. This and other validation exercises support use of LiST as an aid for program planning to tailor packages of community-based interventions to the epidemiological context and for project evaluation. Such targeted planning and assessments will be useful to accelerate progress in reaching MDG4 targets.

Objective: The goal of the current study is to examine whether social connectedness among older adults mitigates the risk of poor health due to exposure to warfare and related symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Prior research has indicated a protective role for social connectedness in the face of trauma in general. However, this same association has not been examined among older adults exposed to warfare, even though they are potentially a more vulnerable population with unique social needs. Method: The study used cross-sectional data from the Israeli component of the Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE-Israel; N = 1,557, mean age = 69.03, age range = 50 to 105). It employed a composite scale of social connectedness, data on exposure to war-related events during the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, and ensuing symptoms of PTSD. Social connectedness, warfare exposure, and PTSD symptoms were used to predict physical and mental health, as well as engagement in health behaviors. Results: Warfare exposure and PTSD symptoms were related to worse health. Moreover, social connectedness moderated this association, such that persons suffering from PTSD symptoms suffered less from worse health when they were highly connected. This trend was found for physical and mental health and in relation to health behaviors. Conclusions: While war-related PTSD is indeed related to poorer health, social connectedness moderates the strength of the association. Practitioners should be aware of the protective role of social connectedness in the context of warfare exposure in old age, and intervention programs with this population should strive toward bolstering social connections.

Introduction The burden of HIV infection in southern Africa is a public health concern with an increasing number of new infections. This study sought to investigate the predictors of HIV prevalence in Mozambique through a complex samples logistic regression and spatial mapping approach using nationally representative data. Methods We conducted a secondary data analysis using the 2015 Mozambique Demographic and Health Survey and AIDS Indicator Survey. The analysis performed in four stages while incorporating population survey sampling weights did the following: i) created a complex sample plan file in SPSS, ii) performed the weighted estimate of HIV prevalence, iii) performed complex sample chi-square test of independence, and then iv) performed complex sample logistic regression modeling. Results Out of 11,270 participants, 1,469 (13.0%) tested positive for HIV. The prevalence of HIV infection was higher in females (15.1%) than males (10.2%). We found that urban dwellers were more likely to be HIV-positive compared to rural dwellers (AOR: 1.70; CI: 1.27, 2.27). We observed provincial variations in HIV prevalence, with Maputo Cidade (17.4%), Maputo Provincia (22.6%), Gaza (25.2%) recording higher prevalence above the national estimate. Other independent predictors of HIV infection in Mozambique included age, education level, marital status, total lifetime sexual partners, and having had an STI in the last 12 months. Conclusions The study revealed associations between high-risk sexual behavior and HIV infection. Results from our spatial mapping approach can help health policy makers to better allocate resources for cost-effective HIV/AIDS interventions. Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) campaigns among high-risk groups should be pursued to lower the reservoir of HIV among high-risk groups.

The armed conflict in Israel and Gaza has strained the medical systems of both places, particularly in Gaza where at least 40 health-care workers have been killed.1Insecurity InsightAttacks on health care in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.https://insecurityinsight.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/3.-16-21-October-2023-Attacks-on-Health-Care-in-Israel-and-the-oPt.pdfDate: Oct 23, 2023Date accessed: October 25, 2023Google Scholar The destruction of hospitals and clinics in Gaza, with more than 75 attacks between Oct 7 and Oct 24, 2023, is a tragic echo of both targeted and indiscriminate violence against health care across the globe.2WHOSurveillance system for attacks on healthcare (SSA).https://extranet.who.int/ssa/Index.aspxDate: Oct 25, 2023Date accessed: October 25, 2023Google Scholar The Safeguarding Health in Conflict Coalition reported nearly 2000 incidents of attacks on health care in 2022 globally, and the 2023 trajectory is set to surpass this.3Insecurity Insight, Safeguarding Health in Conflict, Map ActionAttacked and threatened: health care at risk.https://mapaction-maps.herokuapp.com/healthDate: May 6, 2021Date accessed: October 25, 2023Google Scholar However, beyond the number of incidents is the stark reality that each of these attacks results in the disruption and destruction of health care for an entire community, with cascading effects lasting for years afterwards. Our research in Syria, Colombia, and Myanmar has shown that there are both direct and indirect impacts of violence on health care in every part of the health system and cumulatively, on civilians. Quantitatively, we found that health services are disrupted for extended periods after an attack on a health facility (unpublished). Attacks also often result in prioritising life-saving care over routine care, leading to secondary morbidity and mortality.4Alkhalil M Alaref M Ekzayez A et al.Health aid displacement during a decade of conflict (2011–19) in Syria: an exploratory analysis.BMC Public Health. 2023; 231562Crossref PubMed Scopus (1) Google Scholar Essential infrastructure and secure supply chains can take years, if not decades, to rebuild. For the community, instead of health facilities being a place of health-care provision and safety, they can become a place of fear, where individuals are likely to be targeted. For health-care workers, who face multiple intersecting traumas both as professionals and affected civilians, their psychological traumas can be profound and long lasting, particularly with repeated attacks.5Abbara A Rayes D Tappis H et al.“Actually, the psychological wounds are more difficult than physical injuries:” a qualitative analysis of the impacts of attacks on health on the personal and professional lives of health workers in the Syrian conflict.Confl Health. 2023; 17: 48Crossref PubMed Scopus (1) Google Scholar We hope the recent attacks against hospitals will further mobilise the medical and humanitarian community to stand in solidarity to protect health-care workers and patients in the face of these escalating attacks, wherever they occur. Knowing that the impacts are profound and long lasting, prevention must go alongside recovery and accountability. We emphasise the need for all parties in a conflict to abide by international humanitarian law, to uphold and implement UN Security Council Resolution 2286 (demanding protection and documentation of, and accountability for, attacks on health care),6UN Security CouncilSecurity Council resolution 2286 on protection of the wounded and sick, medical personnel and humanitarian personnel in armed conflict.https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/827916?ln=enDate: May 3, 2016Date accessed: November 1, 2023Google Scholar and support these health systems in coping with attacks. If health-care services or personnel are attacked, there must be condemnation, investigation, and prosecution to deter further atrocities and avoid the normalisation of such attacks during armed conflict. We declare no competing interests. Editorial note: The Lancet Group takes a neutral position with respect to territorial claims in published text and institutional affiliations.

<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>Background:</h3> In Mozambique, 1.6 million people are living with HIV, and over 60% of the population lives in rural areas lacking access to health services. Mobile health clinics, implemented in 2013 in 2 provinces, are beginning to offer antiretroviral therapy (ART) and basic primary care services. Prior to introduction of the mobile health clinics in the communities, we performed a rapid ethnographic assessment to understand barriers to accessing HIV care and treatment services and acceptability and potential use of the mobile health clinics as an alternative means of service delivery. <h3>Methods:</h3> We conducted assessments in Gaza province in January 2013 and in Zambezia Province in April–May 2013 in districts where mobile health clinic implementation was planned. Community leaders served as key informants, and chain-referral sampling was used to recruit participants. Interviews were conducted with community leaders, health care providers, traditional healers, national health system patients, and traditional healer patients. Interviewees were asked about barriers to health services and about mobile health clinic acceptance. <h3>Results:</h3> In-depth interviews were conducted with 117 participants (Gaza province, n = 57; Zambezia Province, n = 60). Barriers to accessing health services included transportation and distance-related issues (reliability, cost, and travel time). Participants reported concurrent use of traditional and national health systems. The decision to use a particular health system depended on illness type, service distance, and lack of confidence in the national health system. Overall, participants were receptive to using mobile health clinics for their health care and ability to increase access to ART. Hesitations concerning mobile health clinics included potentially long wait times due to high patient loads. Participants emphasized the importance of regular and published visit schedules and inclusion of community members in planning mobile health clinic services. <h3>Conclusion:</h3> Mobile health clinics can address many barriers to uptake of HIV services, particularly related to transportation issues. Involvement of community leaders, providers, traditional healers, and patients, as well as regularly scheduled mobile clinic visits, are critical to successful service delivery implementation in rural areas.

Introducing childhood immunization poses challenges in environments of societal fragility. The Palestinian territories (Pt) are considered 'fragile' because of their lack of political, economic and territorial sovereignty. Poverty is rife, infant mortality high, and diseases associated with overcrowding widespread. Under these circumstances the Rostropovich Vishneskaya Foundation (RVF) has assembled a network of public and private stakeholders to introduce a country-wide rotavirus immunization program.The incidence of diarrhea was determined for 18 months before and 18 months after the introduction of rotavirus vaccine among all children younger than 5 years presenting to outpatient clinics in Gaza with three or more loose stools per day. Simultaneously the prevalence of rotavirus was established by rotavirus antigen detection in stool samples collected from children younger than 3 years at Caritas Baby Hospital in Bethlehem during the corresponding time periods.Within 12 months 97.4% immunization coverage was achieved. The incidence of diarrhea dropped by 32.2%, while the prevalence of rotavirus in stool samples decreased by 64.6% throughout the following year.In environments of economic or political instability private-public partnerships for the introduction of comprehensive vaccination programs can work based on close collaboration, shared vision, flexibility and inter-organizational trust.

A Community Health System Strengthening model, which mobilizes communities by applying quality improvement, was used in 39 communities around 3 health centers in Gaza Province, Mozambique, to increase identification of pregnant women and support them to attend antenatal care (ANC). This article describes the process and results. Community group representatives formed a community improvement team to spread messages about the importance of ANC, identify pregnant women, link them to the facility, and follow up. Between March 2014 and February 2015, teams identified 2020 pregnant women. Antenatal care attendance increased at all 3 centers. One health center did an additional chart review and found that postintervention, women were enrolling in care earlier in pregnancy. There were no changes in HIV testing or treatment initiation for HIV-positive women. Community-led improvement initiatives play an important role in connecting pregnant women with services to receive testing and treatment to promote optimal health and prevent HIV transmission.

Background:mHealth is increasingly regarded as having the potential to support service delivery by health workers in low-resource settings. PIERS on the Move (POM) is a mobile health application developed to support community health workers identification and management of women at risk of adverse outcomes from pre-eclampsia. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of using POM in Mozambique on community health care workers' knowledge and self-efficacy related to caring for women with pre-eclampsia, and their perception of usefulness of the tool to inform implementation. Method: An evaluation was conducted for health care workers in the Mozambique Community Level Intervention for Pre-eclampsia (CLIP) cluster randomized trial from 2014 to 2016 in Maputo and Gaza provinces (NCT01911494). A structured survey was designed using themes from the Technology Acceptance Model, which describes the likelihood of adopting the technology based on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Surveys were conducted in Portuguese and translated verbatim to English for analysis. Preliminary analysis of open-ended responses was conducted to develop a coding framework for full qualitative analysis, which was completed using NVivo12 (QSR International, Melbourne, Australia). Results: Overall, 118 community health workers (44 intervention; 74 control) and 55 nurses (23 intervention; 32 control) were surveyed regarding their experiences. Many community health workers found the POM app easy to use (80%; 35/44), useful in guiding their activities (68%; 30/44) and pregnant women received their counseling more seriously because of the POM app (75%; 33/44). Almost a third CHWs reported some challenges using the POM app (30%; 13/44), including battery depletion after a full day's activity. Community health workers reported increases in knowledge about pre-eclampsia and other pregnancy complications and increases in confidence, comfort and capacity to advise women on health conditions and deliver services. Nurses recognized the increased capacity of community health workers and were more confident in their clinical and technological skills to identify women at risk of obstetric complications. Conclusions: Many of the community health workers reported that POM improved knowledge, self-efficacy and strengthened relationships with the communities they serve and local nurses. This helped to strengthen the link between community and health facility. However, findings highlight the need to consider program and systematic challenges to implementation.

Policy Points: Across the globe, the threat from terrorist attacks is rising, which requires a careful assessment of long‐term medical support. We found 3 major sources of costs: hospital expenditures, mental health services dedicated to acute stress reactions, and ambulatory follow‐up. During the first year, most of the costs were related to hospitalization and support for stress relief. During the second year, ambulatory and rehabilitation costs continued to grow. Public health specialists should consider these major components of costs and their evolution over time to properly advise the medical and social authorities on allocating resources for the medical and nonmedical support of civilian casualties resulting from war or terror. Context Across the globe, the threat from terrorist attacks is rising, which requires a careful assessment of long‐term medical support. Based on an 18‐month follow‐up of the Israeli civilian population following the 2014 war in Gaza, we describe and analyze the medical costs associated with rocket attacks and review the demography of the victims who filed claims for disability compensation. We then propose practical lessons to help health care authorities prepare for future confrontations. Method Using the National Insurance Institute of Israel's (NII) database, we conducted descriptive and comparative analyses using statistical tests (Fisher's Exact Test, chi‐square test, and students’ t‐tests). The costs were updated until March 30, 2016, and are presented in US dollars. We included only civilian expenses in our analysis. Findings We identified 5,189 victims, 3,236 of whom presented with acute stress reactions during the conflict. Eighteen months after the conflict, the victims’ total medical costs reached $4.4 million. The NII reimbursed $2,541,053 for associated medical costs and $1,921,792 for associated mental health costs. A total of 709 victims filed claims with the NII for further support, including rehabilitation, medical devices, and disability pensions. Conclusion We found 3 major sources of costs: hospital expenditures, mental health services dedicated to acute stress reactions, and ambulatory follow‐up. During the first year, most of the costs were related to hospitalization and support for stress relief. During the second year, ambulatory and rehabilitation costs continued to grow. Public health specialists should consider these major components of costs and their evolution over time to properly advise the medical and social authorities on allocating resources for the medical and nonmedical support of civilian casualties resulting from war or terror.

Clinical trials contribute to the improvement of health through testing potentially efficacious interventions (e.g. vaccines, drugs, devices, and even behavioural strategies) among selected population segments to provide evidence to support health policy and practice. There are indisputable health benefits, not only to the communities directly involved in the trials but also to the wider population affected by the health problems in question. On the other hand, regardless of the results of the trials, it is assumed that there are immediate benefits disseminated to the whole population of reference resulting from training, resources, services quality, and improvement and local knowledge. Particularly for low-income countries, this assumption is often taken for granted, as the implementation of clinical trials is usually accompanied by infrastructure development, institutional capacity building, and improved standards of care. The actual direct benefit to health and health care delivery, its sustainability, and more importantly, the communities9 perceptions of those benefits are seldom measured, because clinical trials often miss the opportunity to evaluate communities9 acceptability of the potential intervention, and the extent to which their needs and priorities are met through the trials. Formative research, which must be conducted in advance and during trial implementation, is a valuable approach to address such questions and to recommend appropriate ways of conducting the trials so as to gain optimal synergies with communities9 expectations while balancing those with the intended improvement of health. The Manhiça Health research centre takes such approach when implementing complex interventions involving large segments of the population and health services catchment areas, such as entire districts and provinces. This talk focuses on lessons learnt from engaging the community in three different interventions, namely the Malaria Elimination Program in Magude District, the Community Level Interventions for Pre-eclampsia in Maputo and Gaza Provinces, and the Cause of Death Determination using Minimally Invasive Autopsies in Manhiça District, all in Southern Mozambique.
