Natural Language Processing-Powered Real-Time Monitoring Solution for Vaccine Sentiments and Hesitancy on Social Media: System Development and Validation.

Background: Vaccines serve as a crucial public health tool, although vaccine hesitancy continues to pose a significant threat to full vaccine uptake and, consequently, community health. Understanding and tracking vaccine hesitancy is essential for effective public health interventions; however, traditional survey methods present various limitations.

Objective: This study aimed to create a real-time, natural language processing (NLP)-based tool to assess vaccine sentiment and hesitancy across 3 prominent social media platforms.

Access to cardiovascular medicines in low- and middle-income countries: a mini review.

Background: Many cardiovascular (CV) medicines are required for long term. However, with their limited resources, low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) may have challenges with access to cardiovascular medicines. The aim of this review was to provide a summary of available evidence on access to cardiovascular medicines in LMICs.

Blood pressure-lowering medication prescribing, its adherence to guidelines and relationship with blood pressure control at a family medicine department.

Background: In many resource-constrained countries, control of blood pressure (BP) is low. Antihypertensive drug prescribing practices may influence BP control. However, adherence of prescribing to treatment guidelines may not be optimal in resource-constrained settings.

West Africa's CO emissions: investigating the economic indicators, forecasting, and proposing pathways to reduce carbon emission levels.

This paper investigates the nexus between carbon emissions (CO) and economic growth in West Africa based on the Environment Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis by utilizing spatial panel data technique to check the possible effect of spatial dependence among countries in West Africa. Our empirical findings suggest the presence of spatial dependence of carbon emissions distribution in West Africa. By examining the existence of EKC embedded within the Stochastic Impacts by Regression on Population, Affluence, and Technology (STIRPAT) approach, we conclude an inverse N-trajectory of the relationship between carbon emissions and economic growth.
