Characteristics of longitudinal maternal health studies in sub‐Saharan Africa: A systematic mapping of literature between 2012 and 2022

Abstract

Identifying research trends and mismatches between research topics and disease burden provides useful information for guiding future research prioritization. In particular, gaps exist for studies on hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and ante/postpartum hemorrhage, among the top causes of maternal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa.
