Temporal trends and spatial heterogeneity of sanitation facilities in Ethiopia: evidence from the 2005-2019 Demographic and Health Surveys

Background
The main aim of sanitation is to prevent human contact with faecal pathogens to decrease occurrences of diseases. However, no region in the world is on the right track to accomplish Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6.2 for universal access to sanitation. Sub-Saharan Africa, including Ethiopia, is significantly behind in meeting the 2030 SDG 6.2 targets. Hence, this study focused on the spatial and temporal analysis of sanitation in Ethiopia based on four demographic health surveys.

Design
This research was undertaken among households in Ethiopia based on a weighted sample size. Variables with a p

Temporal changes in the burden of leukaemia and lymphoma in the Australasia and Oceania regions, 2010-2019: an analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019

Objectives
Leukaemias and lymphomas are among the most prevalent and significant cancers in Australasia and Oceania. This study aims to examine the burden of leukaemias/lymphomas and its temporal trend in Australasia and Oceania from 2010 to 2019.

Design
Epidemiological study

Methods
Data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 were used to examine the burden of leukaemia/lymphoma key subtypes (acute lymphocytic leukaemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), Hodgkin-lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL)) by sex and 5 year age groups (from
