Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, chi-squared tests, Pearson's correlation, and multiple logistic regression analysis.Results: The participation rate of individuals with physical disabilities in the national cancer screening program over the past 2 years was 55.1%. Perceived benefits of cancer screening were positive, whereas perceived barriers were lower than moderate. Self-efficacy regarding cancer screening was slightly above moderate. Individuals with prior health screening experience showed a significantly higher tendency to participate. Previous experience with health screening also led to differences in perceptions of cancer screening. Health screening experience and perceived benefits of cancer screening significantly influenced participation in national cancer screening.Conclusions: To increase cancer screening participation among individuals with physical disabilities, it is crucial to not only reduce barriers to cancer screening but also enhance perceptions of its importance and benefits.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145277031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Negative binomial and logistic regression models were employed to analyze absenteeism, presenteeism, and working hour tension as measures of productivity loss.Results: We found a significant association between multimorbidity and increased absenteeism, presenteeism and working hour tension. After controlling for socio-economic, demographic, health, and workplace-related factors, individuals with multimorbidity had a 1.07-fold higher rate of absenteeism (incidence rate ratios: 1.07; 95% CI: 1.02-1.13) compared to those without serious illness. Their odds of experiencing presenteeism were three times higher, and the incidence of working hour tension was 32% higher.

Adjusted prevalence ratios (aPR) were estimated using Poisson regression models.Results: Less populated areas had increased wait times (aPR = 1.54; 95% confidence intervals [95% CI]: 1.06-2.24) and lower colonoscopy utilization (aPR = 0.86; 95% CI: 0.78-0.95).

The Simplified Medication Adherence Questionnaire was applied, and clinical data were extracted from medical records.

Both non-adherence and viral non-suppression were associated with demographic, behavioral, clinical, and ART-related aspects. In the multivariable analysis, ART side effects [odds ratios (OR) = 0.360; P = .015] and PAS use (OR = 11.375; P = .032) were predictors of non-adherence. Likewise, participation in sex work (OR = 4.334; P = .029) and lack of dietary modifications (OR = 3.176; P = .046) predicted viral non-suppression.Conclusions: Targeted interventions addressing both clinical and psychosocial determinants are essential to improve adherence, achieve sustained viral suppression, and reduce HIV transmission in highly vulnerable contexts.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145152455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These changes may contribute to the growing double burden of malnutrition (DBM), where maternal overweight/obesity coexists with child undernutrition. This study explores how C-section deliveries are linked to household-level DBM in three countries in this region. Understanding this link is key for developing effective interventions to improve maternal and child nutrition and reduce health burdens.Methods: We analysed 2022 Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data from Bangladesh, Cambodia, and Nepal, including women aged 15-49 with at least one child, with available nutritional and delivery mode data. Chi-square tests, analysis of variance, and two-level logistic regression were used to assess the association between C-sections and DBM.Results: C-section deliveries were linked to a significantly higher risk of DBM in Bangladesh and Nepal. Delayed breastfeeding initiation after C-section further increased this risk. Urban households showed higher DBM rates, while longer breastfeeding duration was protective.Conclusion: To reduce DBM, policies should focus on limiting unnecessary C-sections, promoting early and sustained breastfeeding, and supporting maternal postpartum health-especially in urban areas where risks are higher. Understanding local factors is crucial for effective interventions.","PeriodicalId":94107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of public health (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145092855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is limited literature on how these co-design processes are evaluated, particularly in the absence of co-design evaluation frameworks developed specifically for this setting. We examined how co-design processes used with residents and informal carers to develop healthcare interventions in residential aged care are evaluated.Methods: Six electronic databases were searched, and 4594 studies reporting co-design of healthcare interventions with older adults and/or informal carers in residential aged care were screened. Data extraction included study characteristics and co-design evaluation practices.Results: Of 22 included studies, six evaluated their co-design process. Narrative reflection was the most common approach (n = 4). Evaluation was predominantly retrospective and based on researchers' reflections, drawing on data collected during the process. No studies used pre-defined evaluation criteria to measure the impact or effectiveness of the co-design process, or if the process meaningfully involved residents or their informal carers.Conclusion: Co-design is increasingly used in residential aged care research, although evaluation of these processes is uncommon.
