Burden assessment of podoconiosis in Wayu Tuka woreda, east Wollega zone, western Ethiopia: a community-based cross-sectional study
TL;DR: A relatively high prevalence of podoconiosis, frequent ALA episodes and considerable decreases in daily activities were identified in this district, and footwear use and daily foot hygiene were associated with decreased odds of ALA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of early and current Helicobacter pylori infection on the risk of anaemia in 6.5-year-old Ethiopian children
Bineyam Taye,Fikre Enquselassie,Aster Tsegaye,Alemayehu Amberbir,Girmay Medhin,Andrew W. Fogarty,Karen Robinson,Gail Davey +7 more
TL;DR: This study provides further evidence from a low income country that any H. pylori infection in early childhood and anaemia at the age of 6.5 is associated with higher prevalence of anaemia, and reduction of haemoglobin level and red cell indices at age 6.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a scale to measure stigma related to podoconiosis in Southern Ethiopia.
TL;DR: The development and testing of the first standardised measures of podoconiosis stigma will enable an evidence-based approach to mitigating stigma which will enable implementation of more effective disease control and help break the cycle of poverty and NTDs.
Journal ArticleDOI
A mixed-methods study on perceptions towards use of Rapid Ethical Assessment to improve informed consent processes for health research in a low-income setting
Adamu Addissie,Adamu Addissie,Gail Davey,Melanie J. Newport,Thomas Addissie,Hayley MacGregor,Yeweyenhareg Feleke,Bobbie Farsides +7 more
TL;DR: There are perceived to be correctable gaps in the consent process of medical research in Ethiopia, and REA is considered relevant by researchers and stakeholders to address these gaps.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jennifer S. Le Blond,Jennifer S. Le Blond,Javier Cuadros,Yordanos B. Molla,Yordanos B. Molla,Tadesse Berhanu,Mohammed Umer,Peter J. Baxter,Gail Davey +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the extent of alteration was quantified using several chemical weathering indices (Chemical Index of Alteration = CIA; Chemical Index of Weathering = CIW), including an index calculated by multivariate analyses of the soil chemical composition data (weathering “ W ” index).
