Article Abstract

Background: A higher risk of psychosis among migrants and ethnic minorities, due to intersecting exposure to social disadvantage, exclusion and discrimination, has been reported. However, first-person experiences and perspectives regarding these topics have rarely been sought.

Methods: We aimed to explore the contexts, experiences, and perspectives of individuals with psychosis from diverse ethno-racial and migrant backgrounds through a qualitative study involving an in-depth interview and an arts-based component (cellphilming).

Results: Four themes were generated through thematic analysis: Facing adversity; Apart from the world; (Re)building structure; and meaning; and Cellphilming as possibility and connection. Themes portray the role of place and society in the lives and development of psychosis of participants.

Conclusions: Findings resonate with previous research on the impacts of social and structural disadvantage, particularly for minoritized populations. By framing these under particular contexts and life stories, our findings allow for contextualization and nuance, and a focus on what mattered the most for participants: hope, meaning, renewal and healing.

Background: In 2023, Mayotte, a French department in the Mozambique channel, experienced a long drought that led to potable water restrictions. Although the French vaccination schedule makes polio vaccination compulsory for children, the large proportion of migrants on the island coupled with the water crisis raised concerns about the establishment of poliovirus transmission chains. Therefore, a surveillance was implemented to detect polioviruses in sewage sampled in the two main wastewater treatment plants.

Having a migration background might be associated with the care experiences of family caregivers of people with dementia. For example, caregivers with a migration background often face additional challenges in accessing professional care. The aim of this study was to provide insight into differences in care experiences between family caregivers with a native Dutch and a European or a non-European migration background.

Background: Dietary acculturation-the process by which migrants adopt the dietary patterns of their host country-has become increasingly relevant given the unprecedented scale of international migration. This phenomenon is often associated with a shift from traditional diets toward host-country patterns that are higher in ultra processed foods, added sugars, and fats, with potential implications for chronic disease risk.

Objective: This mini-review aims to synthesize global evidence on the dietary transformations experienced by migrant populations and to assess the health implications and modulating factors influencing these changes.
