Noncommunicable disease behavioral risk factors in Sub Saharan Africa: A protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis

The finding may even help to identify settings or subgroups of the population where noncommunicable diseases is of higher concern and help to set prevention priorities, to optimize resource allocation, and guide future research to fill knowledge gaps. The protocol has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023431348).
