  • The quality of life and inequalities in health services for epilepsy treatment among patience in the urban cities of Sudan
  • 2019

    • Epilepsy in Sudan accounts for 1.6 annual mortality rates and 238.7 disability adjusted life years per 100 000. These figures are higher among females; children and young adults. It is associated with notable stigma and social burdens. Patients of epilepsy are subjected to various forms of social discrimination that affect their quality of life. They are isolated, neglected and deprived of their education and employments rights and not able to achieve normal social and family life. Aiming at highlighting social implications of epilepsy among Sudanese patients, this study found that social encumbrances due to epilepsy in Sudan are more prevalent among highly vulnerable groups like women, children and poor populations living in remote areas. Lack of trained medical personnel in neurology and the medical equipment's required for proper diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy in Sudan are key reasons aggravating social and health burden of epilepsy both among patients and their caregivers.

  • Effect of COVID – 19 response in Uganda on Street Children
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Pan African Medical Journal. - : Pan African Medical Journal. - 1937-8688. ; 35:Suppl 2
  • Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The unprecedented novel Coronavirus disease, COVID-19, which emerged in December 2019 has been labeled “disease X” by the World Health Organization (WHO) based on its rate and extent of spread as well as harsh ramifications. In response, different nations have adopted different management approaches hinging on various considerations, among them the WHO recommendations. Uganda has incorporated lockdowns, a measure that has affected schools, hospitals, businesses, places of worship, markets, public transport, and a rise in abuse of human rights in the form of police brutality, and domestic violence [1]. However, contextual factors such as socioeconomic realities and poverty pose a different set of problems for the mitigation and suppression of efforts for COVID-19, especially for vulnerable populations. Eventually, the effects of these interventions pitch down to individual citizens but invariably disproportionately affect vulnerable populations such as street children. This commentary examines the effects of mitigation efforts of COVID-19 on street children who roam the streets of Ugandan cities and whose plight barely gets on the research as well as policy agenda [2]. This paper also draws parallels with similar stories from street children in a few other African countries.

  • Why policy action should focus on the vulnerable commercial sex workers in Uganda during COVID - 19
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Pan African Medical Journal. - : Pan African Medical Journal. - 1937-8688. ; 35:Suppl 2
  • Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • According to the Ugandan Ministry of Health, as of 24th June 2020, Uganda had registered a total of 797 cases of COVID-19 [1]. Two months prior, a majority of the positive cases in Uganda had been linked to being spread by long-distance truck drivers who drove into Uganda from Kenya and Tanzania. These neighboring countries had registered more COVID-19 infections and mortality. Seeing as the sex workers in Uganda are popularly found at border points where they interact with truck drivers [2,3] they were a key target in reducing community spread. In response, the Ministry of Health employed a self-proclaimed sex worker and Kampala city socialite to cast a commercial break advertisement as a health promotion measure. She warned girls at the Ugandan borders to avoid truck drivers to keep the nation free of COVID-19 [4]. This move went beyond the discrimination that sex workers in Uganda face to show the importance of such a marginalized group in the community spread of infectious diseases like COVID-19. Building from Uganda´s previous experience with HIV/AIDS, unempowered sex workers are at a higher risk for transmission with a 37% infection rate compared to 9% in the general population [5]. Some of these workers are sometimes forced to ignore regulations geared towards infection control as their ‘daily bread’ depend on the trade [6]. During the COVID-19 times, their plight is worsened by the inability to afford safe sex by using condoms and some of their customers preferring not to use protection [7]. Likewise, the majority of sex workers are illiterates as seen by only 53% of them having attained primary education in contrast to 73% in the general population [8]. Consequently, such vulnerable illiterate sex workers fail to fully comprehend the various health measures imposed by policymakers, and their bargaining power for safer sex is subdued.

  • Knowledge Level of Cervical Cancer Among Women in Cameroon
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Journal of Gynecology and Women’s Health. - 2474-7602. ; 12:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Cervical cancer is a leading cause of dead among women in Africa and Cameroon in particular. It is cancer of the lower portion of the uterus, just above the vagina. Cervical cancer is caused by the Human Papilloma Virus which is transmitted mostly through sexual intercourse. We aimed at finding the reasons why this cancer very common among women in Africa and Cameroon in particular and also to find out if Cameroonian women are aware of the disease using a cross sectional designed study. We found out that more than 50% of the women never knew or have never heard nor screened for cervical cancer.
