Prevalence of probable posttraumatic stress disorder among Sudanese refugees in Egypt: a pilot study
These preliminary findings reveal a high psychological burden among Sudanese refugees in Egypt, underscoring the acute nature of the crisis. There is an urgent need for the integration of culturally sensitive mental health screenings and psychosocial interventions within refugee response frameworks. Further longitudinal research is required to explore the long-term effects of displacement on this population.
