“…Socioeconomic and demographic factors, such as wealth quintile, parity, and education are strong predictors of SBA use in Afghanistan (17)(18)(19)(20)(21). Additionally, use of antenatal care (ANC) reduces delays in seeking care for obstetric emergencies (22).…”

Giving birth with a skilled birth attendant at a facility that provides emergency obstetric care services has better outcomes, but many women do not have access to these services in low- and middle-income countries. Individual, household, and societal factors influence women's decisions about place of birth. Factors influencing birthplace preference by type of provider and level of public facility are not well understood. Applying the Andersen Behavioral Model of healthcare services use, we explored the association between characteristics of women and their choice of childbirth location using a multinomial logistic regression, and conducted a scenario analysis to predict changes in the childbirth location by imposing various interventions. Most women gave birth at home (68.1%), while 15.1% gave birth at a public clinic, 12.1% at a public hospital, and 4.7% at a private facility. Women with higher levels of education, from households in the upper two wealth quintiles, and who had any antenatal care were more likely to give birth in public or private facilities than at home. A combination of multisector interventions had the strongest signals from the model for increasing the predicted probability of in-facility childbirths. This study enhances our understanding of factors associated with the use of public facilities and the private sector for childbirth in Afghanistan. Policymakers and healthcare providers should seek to improve equity in the delivery of health services. This study highlights the need for decisionmakers to consider a combination of multisector efforts (e.g., health, education, and social protection), to increase equitable use of maternal healthcare services.

Access to health knowledge for health equality: a multi-phase review focused on disability-health

Background The existing evidence base indicates increased interest in knowledge translation (KT), or, the dissemination of research to ensure uptake and impact. Given this definition, this study aimed to review existing scholarship on knowledge translation (KT) of health research to people living with disabilities (PLWD), and assess the current state of accessibility of health knowledge for people living with disabilities. Methods Given existing heterogeneity in literature as well as a number of varying definitions for both disability and knowledge translation, a reflexive, three-phase approach was utilized to improve methodological soundness. Phase I recognizes that existing review-style studies have been conducted on disability-KT. An existing systematic review on KT specific to the field of rehabilitation and physical medicine was analyzed to assess potential best practices towards inclusivity and accessibility for people living with disability. Phase II used the Center on Knowledge Translation for Disability and Rehabilitation Research (KTDRR) database as an information-source with high-specificity to disability-health KT. Phase III sought to rapidly assess the current landscape of systematic reviews relevant to disability-health KT, with four systematic reviews meeting the inclusion criteria across Cochrane, Psycinfo, CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE. Results The current landscape of disability-health KT is primarily targeted at health professionals who serve PLWD. PLWD are included in KT, mostly as key informants, or as study participants in KT-studies designed as health interventions. Multiple systematic reviews on disability-health KT exist, presenting vastly different foci which prevent assessment of best practices. Conclusions KT efforts are abundant and can be seen across health research related to disabilities, generating considerable literature and systematic reviews. With regards to meeting the public health objective of equalizing and enhancing access to health knowledge, future knowledge translation efforts intending to provide PLWD with up-to-date health research can be of significant value.

Evaluation of knowledge mobilization (KM) activities in community-based mental health and social service organizations is needed. Our objective was to understand how service providers want to access and share knowledge, in order to improve KM practices to better support adults with intellectual disabilities. We distributed information about five strategies for supporting friendships; this included strategy descriptions, outcomes of strategy evaluations, and practical implementation considerations. We distributed information through a conference presentation, online presentations, and online modules. Service providers completed questionnaires and phone interviews. We present findings on their perspectives regarding the format and content of the material, which can inform future KM efforts.
