Studies of the last two decades have shown that traditional treatment of LBP, focusing on injections and (bed)rest, may contribute to chronification and its devastating individual and macro-economic sequelae.
In addition to deaths, maternal near-miss events and other complications resulting in morbidity and long-term disability also carry devastating effects on the lives of women, children and families in the form of physical, psychological and socio-economic sequelae [ 3- 5].
Our results should encourage further investigation on the perinatal sequelae of economic downturns.
Adding to the human and economic costs are chronic sequelae associated with C. jejuni infection--Guillian-Barré syndrome and reactive arthritis.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) constitutes a major global health and socio-economic problem with neurobehavioral sequelae contributing to long-term disability.
African public health leaders issued a call for action as meningitis rapidly became a public health priority given the high case fatality rates, high attack rates among young adults at the peak of their economic contributions, and the incapacitating sequelae seen in 10%20%% of survivors.
These neurocognitive sequelae generate health and economic problems related to the dependency of survivors.
This possible increased male sensitivity to economic downturns may induce clinically important sequelae such as CD.
