    Abstract Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of hypertension and its risk factors among adult cotton textile workers in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
    Study design: Systematic review.
    Methods: A review of English articles was performed between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2021, using the following databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. Studies that measure the prevalence and risk factors of hypertension among adult cotton textile workers in LMICs were included. Extraction of articles and quality assessment of included studies were performed independently by two authors using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool checklist.
    Results: Of 2476 titles screened after duplication, 50 studies were shortlisted for full-text review, and a total of 10 studies were included. Of those 10 studies, seven were carried out in India, one in Indonesia, Iraq, and Iran. Using Stata version 6, the pooled prevalence of hypertension among the cotton textile workers was 18.0% (95% confidence interval: 11.0-25.0, random effect model: I
    Conclusion: The limited available evidence indicates a significant prevalence of hypertension among cotton workers in LMICs. In the wave of double burden of non-communicable diseases in developing countries, considering context-specific risk factors is critical in controlling hypertension by prioritizing organizational plans and policies to optimize workers' health.

    Abstract Objective: The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a drastic impact on students' life, causing physical and emotional sufferings. Considering the relevance of unprecedented conditions, we explored perceptions and attitudes of students towards their academic life and well-being amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Setting: We conducted an exploratory qualitative study using a purposive sampling approach conducted at a single-centre private nursing institution in Karachi, Pakistan.
    Participants: The current study used in-depth interviews with female university students. Study data were analysed manually using the thematic analysis approach.
    Primary outcome: The primary outcome is to explore perception of students on academic life and well-being amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Results: A total of 10 in-depth interviews were conducted between August and September 2020. Four overarching themes were identified: (1) impact of COVID-19 on students' well-being; (2) effect of COVID-19 on students' academic life; (3) current coping mechanisms adopted by students and (4) recommendations to address students' concerns. The pandemic-related stressors served as a major impediment on students' motivation, concentration span and socioeconomic conditions which negatively influenced their well-being and academic life. However, students have adopted diverse coping mechanisms to combat unstable circumstances that include connecting with family and relatives, indulging in diverse activities, and getting academic support from faculty, senior students, and university administration. Students also recommended the need for arranging online mental health services, integrating e-learning mediums in existing academia, and constant efforts by the government to address electricity and internet connectivity issues to promote virtual learning.
    Conclusion: University students have been struck hard due to rapid pandemic-related transitions in their life. The study finding served as the potential guide for educational institutions and government officials to employ appropriate psychological interventions and provide infrastructure and technical facilities to provide support with their academic journey and overcoming the ongoing pandemic repercussions.

    Abstract Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic has directed the use of telemedicine and digital mental health services to meet the needs of people in order to maintain physical distancing by preventing person to person contact. The aim of this review is to highlight the role of telemental health services during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Method: An electronic search was carried out between January 01, 2020 and October 31, 2020 to explore the utilization of telehealth services for mental health problems among adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. The primary source of literature was the structured search of major electronic databases from the MEDLINE (PubMed), CINAHL Plus, Science Direct and the Web of Science. We included nine published studies meeting the the eligibility criteria.
    Results: The role of telehealth identified in this review mainly focused on the applicability of this modality for assessing and managing various mental health problems in these unprecedented times. It also pointed out that the provision of telemental health support reduced the burden of mental health diseases and promoted the wellbeing of the individual. Further, it was witnessed that patients preferred remote consultation as compared to face-to-face visits in order to avoid contracting the virus and found online mental health interventions and psychological counseling very helpful to cope up with the current crisis.
    Conclusion: The current COVID-19 lockdown has changed the management of the mental health problems of patients. The use of this innovative modality prevents transmission of infection and provides timely treatment to the community members most in need.
