An Epidemiological Study of Lung Cancer and Selected Other Cancers among Namibian Uranium Workers
This study faced considerable challenges with respect to case ascertainment, exposure estimates, and ensuring accuracy of key variables. Persuasive consistent evidence for elevated cancer risk was not found for radiation or other exposures studied at the Rössing uranium mine.PMID:37590489 | DOI:10.1667/RADE-23-00051.1 (Source: Radiation Research)

Gender relations and the utilization of contraceptives and antenatal care services in Kenya, Namibia and Nigeria
Afr J Reprod Health. 2022 Nov;26(11):141-153. doi: 10.29063/ajrh2022/v26i11.13.ABSTRACTThe impacts of gender relations (GR) on reproductive health in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) have received little attention. Virtually non-existent are studies that take cognizance of the socio-cultural diversity of SSA countries in assessing the impacts. Using Demographic and Health Survey data from Namibia, Kenya and Nigeria, this study investigated whether feminine gender relations (FGR) predict higher uptake of contraceptives and antenatal care services (ANC) in SSA. Results from univariate, bivariate and multivariate analyses showed that...
