Barriers in Cleft Service Access in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Thematic Analysis of Practical Needs of Rural Families
CONCLUSIONS: Areas of poor awareness, misinformation from primary health care workers, financial hurdles, multiple transportation logistics and others were identified. Aggressive broadcasting of information through radio, timely treatment and collaboration with influential religious leaders were emphasized. Support, grants and subsidies from government and voluntary agencies are encouraged to mitigate the huge out of pocket cost of cleft care in the region.PMID:38557293 | DOI:10.1177/10556656241244976 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Incidence, predictors and immediate neonatal outcomes of birth asphyxia in Nigeria
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of reported birth asphyxia in the participating facilities was low, with around one in six or seven babies with birth asphyxia dying. Factors associated with birth asphyxia included sociodemographic and clinical considerations, underscoring a need for a comprehensive approach focused on the empowerment of women and ensuring access to quality antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care.PMID:38560768 | DOI:10.1111/1471-0528.17816 (Source: BJOG : An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology)

Women, water and access: inscribing gender power in and through a place
J Water Health. 2024 Mar;22(3):627-638. doi: 10.2166/wh.2024.362. Epub 2024 Feb 15.ABSTRACTThis paper explores the socio-cultural and gender-based dynamics associated with place values, and their implications for women's access to water through case studies of upland and riverine communities in southern Nigeria. We used a range of fieldwork methods including public meetings, focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, keen observations, key informants and other secondary sources. Our findings show that drinking water sources are a part of the many forms of visible material structures that embody and generate automatic re...
