Telenursing can increase psychological general well-being in patients with chronic conditions.

The systematic review was registered with PROSPERO registration number CRD42023484361. The review was conducted with five databases: PubMed, Scopus, Willey, Proquest, and Emerald Insight.

Cabo Verde is only the third country in the WHO African region to have achieved this designation, highlighting the potential for other nations to successfully eradicate malaria. Despite encountering hurdles like drug-resistant strains and COVID-19 disruptions, Cabo Verde's success after years of strategic planning and multisectoral collaboration highlights the value of long-term public health initiatives. To emulate this achievement, African countries must take a holistic approach that includes strong leadership, effective monitoring systems, and community engagement. Leveraging current resources and embracing breakthroughs, such as the recent introduction of malaria vaccinations, will be critical to achieving a malaria-free Africa. Countries that integrate socioeconomic development into malaria eradication efforts might reduce the burden of malaria on vulnerable communities while also driving progress towards larger development goals. Cabo Verde's success serves as an example of the continent's malaria fight, emphasizing the significance of long-term vigilance, adaptability, and collaborative action in realizing a common goal of a malaria-free future.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46806,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1658361224000295/pdfft?md5=f4d0d1ff25d7eecaddd6651d203c736d&pid=1-s2.0-S1658361224000295-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140644450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
