The impact of persistent precarity on patients' capacity to manage their treatment burden: A comparative qualitative study between urban and rural patients with multimorbidity in South Africa

Myrna van Pinxteren et al.

Summary: People with multimorbidity in South Africa, especially in low-income settings, experience precariousness due to continuous economic uncertainty, which impacts their capacity to manage their illnesses. This study highlights the multi-faceted nature of precariousness, including financial and housing insecurity, dangerous living circumstances, and exposure to violence. Understanding the treatment burden and capacity of patients in low-income countries is crucial for improving self-management and providing comprehensive care.

How do social and economic vulnerabilities shape the work of participating in care? Everyday experiences of people living with kidney failure in Argentina

Javier Roberti et al.

Summary: This qualitative study on patients with kidney failure in Buenos Aires, Argentina, reveals that the patients' ability to meet treatment demands is influenced by social networks and control over healthcare services. Patients with limited networks are more vulnerable to health deterioration, while control over services results in scarce information, changes in dialysis schedules, lack of contact with transplant teams, and new rules for medication and requests. Regardless of health coverage, patients face economic burdens related to noncovered medication, copayments, travel, caregivers, specialized diets, and relocation for treatment. Many patients struggle economically and some have migrated seeking treatment, unable to return without jeopardizing their lives. Transplanted patients often have to re-enter the job market in the context of high unemployment rates.

Claudia Goncalves Rebelo Jardim et al.

Summary: This systematic review evaluates the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on accessing HIV services at a primary health care level in South Africa. Decreases in HIV testing, positive HIV tests, and initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) were reported, but the provision of ART showed resilience. HIV services at private PHC facilities were unaffected, while there was an overall decrease in HIV services at public PHC facilities, except for antenatal care which remained resilient.
