Effect of male partners' involvement and support on reproductive, maternal and child health and well-being in East Africa: A scoping review.

Background And Aims: East African countries have high rates of maternal and child mortality and morbidity. Studies have shown that the involvement of male partners in reproductive health can benefit maternal and child health (MCH). This scoping review aims to provide an overview of the evidence across East Africa that describes male partner involvement and its effect on maternal, reproductive, and child well-being.

Trustworthy clinical AI solutions: A unified review of uncertainty quantification in Deep Learning models for medical image analysis.

The full acceptance of Deep Learning (DL) models in the clinical field is rather low with respect to the quantity of high-performing solutions reported in the literature. End users are particularly reluctant to rely on the opaque predictions of DL models. Uncertainty quantification methods have been proposed in the literature as a potential solution, to reduce the black-box effect of DL models and increase the interpretability and the acceptability of the result by the final user.

Barriers and opportunities for health service access among fathers: A review of empirical evidence.

Issue Addressed: Engagement with health supports benefits the whole family, yet few health services report successful engagement of fathers. Our aim was to describe available evidence on barriers and opportunities relevant to health system access for fathers.

Methods: Scoping reviews were conducted seeking empirical evidence from (1) Australian studies and (2) international literature reviews.

Engaging culturally diverse fathers in maternal and family healthcare: Experiences and perspectives of healthcare professionals.

Issue Addressed: Australian maternal, family and child services increasingly espouse the value of being 'father-inclusive'. However, fathers report feeling excluded or marginalised during healthcare visits with their partners/infants, and experience barriers to engaging in perinatal healthcare at the community, individual and healthcare service level. These barriers may be amplified in men who are members of minority groups, such as those from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds.
