Abstract Background Lebanon, an Eastern Mediterranean country, suffers a large burden of injury as consequence conflict and war, political instability, the lack policies safety regulations. This article aims to systematically map comprehensively describe research literature in Lebanon and, identify gaps for future research. Methods MEDLINE, Embase, Eric SafetyLit, grey literature, including conference proceedings, theses dissertations, government media reports, were searched without any date or language limits. Data extracted from 467 documents using REDCap. Results War-related injuries most prevalent type followed by homicide other forms violence. While existing targeted vulnerable at-risk populations, vast majority focused solely on reporting prevalence associated risk factors. There are considerable dealing with integration preventive programs interventions across all populations. Conclusions historically currently, experiences high number many different external causes. To date, efforts have making recommendations, rather than implementing evaluating inform policies. Future related work should prioritize prevention programs.

Comorbid common mental disorders (CMDs) are pervasive in refugee populations. However, limited research has explored psychosocial factors for disorder comorbidity Somali samples.This study aims to explore potential risk and protective comorbid depression-anxiety depression-PTSD by examining associations between trauma exposure, factors, health symptoms among a sample of refugees displaced urban Kenya.We used snowball sampling recruit youth aged 15 35years(N = 250,n 143 female, n 88 male, 19 unknown gender). We measured 16 types exposure three (endorsing violence, willingness share problems, symptom awareness) the HSCL-25 PCL-C capture individual CMD symptoms, using guided cutoff points and/or algorithms. then ran series logistic regression analyses examine relationships symptoms.Findings showed that increased predicted CMDs. Increased awareness endorsement violence anxiety-depression respectively. Willingness problems buffered depressive but did not predict comorbidity.These findings revealed high prevalence with differential effects on or disorders. This suggests need transdiagnostic approaches cut across Western diagnostic boundaries consider culturally responsive relevant items measures.
