Background Schizophrenia is a leading cause of disability, and shift from facility- to community-based care has been proposed meet the resource challenges mental healthcare in low- middle-income countries. We hypothesized that addition mobile texting would improve schizophrenia resource-poor community setting compared with free-medicine program alone. Methods findings In this 2-arm randomized controlled trial, 278 community-dwelling villagers (patient participants) were randomly selected...
Per United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, Nepal is aspiring to achieve universal and equitable access safe affordable drinking water provide adequate sanitation for all by 2030. For these goals be accomplished, it important understand the country's geographical heterogeneity inequality of its drinking-water supply (WSS) so that resource allocation disease control can optimized. We aimed 1) estimate spatial improved WSS among overall Nepalese population at a high resolution; 2)...
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is commonly used alongside Western for stroke management in China. However, there significant variation TCM practice, and the utilisation of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines inadequate.

Chinese patent medicines, produced using advanced pharmaceutical techniques and available in various forms, including powders, granules, tablets, pills, capsules, finds extensive utilization among Western medicine practitioners primary healthcare (WMP-PHC). However, the inappropriate overprescribing of these medicines has led to significant resource waste raised considerable concerns. Therefore, we aim address related knowledge gaps by employing unannounced standardized patients (USPs) as a...
Abstract Background An English version of the Patient Perception Patient-Centeredness (PPPC) scale was recently revised, and it is necessary to test this instrument in different primary care populations. Aim This study aimed assess validity reliability a Chinese PPPC scale. Design A mixed method used study. The Delphi collect qualitative quantitative data address content by calculating Content Validity Index, Ratio, adjusted Kappa, Item Impact Score. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA)...
Primary healthcare (PHC) serves as the cornerstone for attainment of universal health coverage (UHC). Efforts to promote UHC should focus on expansion access and quality. However, robust quality evidence has remained scarce in China. Common assessment methods such chart abstraction, patient rating clinical vignette use indirect information that may not represent real practice. This study will send standardised patients (SP or healthy person trained consistently simulate medical history,...
BackgroundThis study aims to evaluate primary care providers' adherence the standard of measuring blood pressure for people aged 35 or above during their initial visit, as per Chinese guidelines, and identify factors affecting practices.MethodsWe developed 11 standardized patients (SP) cases tracer conditions care, deployed trained SPs unannounced visits randomly selected providers in seven provinces China. The used a checklist based on guidelines record whether how was measured. Data were...
We analyzed COVID-19 influences on the design, implementation, and validity of assessing quality primary health care using unannounced standardized patients (USPs) in China. Because pandemic, we crowdsourced our funding, removed tuberculosis from USP case roster, adjusted common cold asthma cases, used hybrid online-offline training for USPs, shared USPs across provinces, strengthened ethical considerations. With those changes, were able to conduct fieldwork despite frequent interruptions....
Background Schizophrenia is a severe and disabling condition that presents dire health equity challenge. Our initial 6-month trial (previously reported) using mobile texting lay supporters, called LEAN, significantly improved medication adherence from 0.48 to 0.61 (adjusted mean 0.11, 95% CI 0.03 0.20, P=.007) for adults with schizophrenia living in resource-poor village rural China. Objective We explored the effectiveness of our program improving participants’ adherence, functioning,...
Despite the abundance of measures to assess medication adherence by persons suffering schizophrenia, few studies have evaluated their concordance and validity against a reference standard in resource-poor community settings. We explored several antipsychotic community.
Introduction As direct-to-consumer teleconsultation (hereafter referred to as ‘teleconsultation’) has gained popularity, an increasing number of patients have been leaving online reviews their experiences. These can help guide in identifying doctors for teleconsultation. However, few studies examined the validity assessing quality against a gold standard. Therefore, we aim use unannounced standardised (USPs) validate both technical and patient-centred teleconsultations. We hypothesise that...
