- Impact of randomised <em>w</em>mel <em>Wolbachia</em> deployments on notified dengue cases and insecticide fogging for dengue control in Yogyakarta City January 26, 2023CONCLUSIONS: Deployments of wMel-infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes resulted in an 83% reduction in the application of perifocal insecticide spraying, consistent with lower dengue case notifications in wMel-treated areas. These results show that the Wolbachia intervention effect demonstrated previously in a cluster randomised trial was also measurable from routine surveillance data.Citra Indriani

As the world charts a way towards an equitable and resilient recovery, Public Health and Social Measures (PHSMs) that were implemented since the beginning of the pandemic need to be made a permanent feature of health systems that can be activated and readily deployed […]Chuan De Foo
- Multimorbidity and out-of-pocket expenditure for medicines in China and India November 3, 2022CONCLUSION: Multimorbidity was associated with substantially higher OOPE for medicines in China and India compared with those without multimorbidity. Our findings provide supporting evidence of the need to improve financial protection for populations with an increased burden of chronic diseases in low-income and middle-income countries.Dennis Tuan Vu La
- The Use of Mobile Health Interventions for Outcomes among Middle-Aged and Elderly Patients with Prediabetes: A Systematic Review October 27, 2022CONCLUSIONS: The use of mobile health was not sufficiently proven to be effective for middle-aged and elderly patients with prediabetes.Yaltafit Abror Jeem

This medical specialty should be prepared for a surge in patients due to a pandemic. The present study aims to evaluate the preparedness of anesthesiologists in facing the surge in the number of COVID-19 patients at the beginning of the […]Mochamat Helmi
- The relative impact of underweight, overweight, smoking, and physical inactivity on health and associated costs in Indonesia: propensity score matching of a national sample September 17, 2022CONCLUSION: Combined together, obesity, overweight, physical inactivity and tobacco use contributed to an increased number of NCDs as well as medical costs and productivity loss in Indonesia. Interventions addressing physical and behavioural risk factors are likely to have substantial benefits for individuals and the wider society in Indonesia.Zulfikar Ihyauddin
- Provincial heterogeneity in the management of care cascade for hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidaemia in China: Analysis of nationally representative population-based survey September 12, 2022CONCLUSION: Our research found significant provincial heterogeneity in the CVD risk scores and the management of the cascade of care for hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidaemia for persons aged 45 years or more. To improve the management of cascade of care and to eliminate regional and disparities in CVD care and risk factors in China, local […]Yang Zhao
- Two-years antibody responses following SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans: A study protocol August 16, 2022The long-term antibody response to the novel SARS-CoV-2 in infected patients and their residential neighborhood remains unknown in Indonesia.

- Disruption of spatiotemporal clustering in dengue cases by wMel Wolbachia in Yogyakarta, Indonesia June 14, 2022Dengue exhibits focal clustering in households and neighborhoods, driven by local mosquito population dynamics, human population immunity, and fine scale human and mosquito movement. We tested the hypothesis that spatiotemporal clustering of homotypic dengue cases is disrupted by introduction of the arbovirus-blocking bacterium Wolbachia (wMel-strain) into the Aedes aegypti mosquito population. We analysed 318 serotyped […]Suzanne M Dufault
