Description
Adrian P Mundt and co-authors set out to count deaths inside prisons worldwide in a 2025 protocol paper. People in prison carry heavy health burdens, and deaths after release are well documented. Deaths during custody, oddly, are barely measured, though many may be preventable.
The team will run a global registry study alongside a systematic review of the literature, blending the counts with statistical models that test what drives the rates. Suicide, violence, infection, and untreated chronic disease are all in scope. A solid worldwide rate, broken down by cause and place, would give prison health services and reformers a firm base for action.
