Abstract   Objectives: Since 1985, the international healthcare community has recommended the ideal rate of caesarean section (CS) to be 10%–15% at the national level. The literature has reported that overused CS without necessary medical indications can be harmful to both maternal and chil

Evaluating health-related quality of life has many benefits. It can beused to evaluate the results of treatment from diseases as well as monitor population health. In addition, it can also be used in various types of research such as clinical research and econo measuring generic health status. The d

Background Healthcare policymaking often struggles to account for complex future uncertainties, particularly for policies affecting healthcare infrastructure or stakeholder behaviour. Scenario thinking is a structured approach for exploring multiple plausible futures. It has, however, been underuti

Kidney failure is the most advanced stage of chronic kidney disease, at which point patients require kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in the form of kidney transplant or lifelong dialysis to survive. Although many governments seek to provide KRT for patients with kidney failure under publicly funded

Indoor air pollution has become a significant concern, contributing to the decline in air quality through the presence of gaseous pollutants and particulate matter, especially under poor ventilation.

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is advancing rapidly and playing an important role in healthcare worldwide. However, real-world implementation remains challenging in terms of economic value, patient data security, and acceptance by health professionals. Hence, this study was conducted with three main components: (1) a
