  • Community cervical cancer screening and precancer risk in women living with HIV in Jos Nigeria

    Open AccessFrancis A Magaji, Mbwas Isaac Mashor et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    The majority of indigent women receiving care at HIV clinics had their first Pap test screening, and lack of organized screening among older and post-menopausal women with HIV, puts women at a higher risk of developing severe cervical precancer lesions

  • Sustaining the momentum for global cancer research and career development in the Covid-19 era

    Open AccessJonah Musa, Francis A Magaji et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2023

    Cervical cancer is the fourth commonest cancer affecting almost 600 000 women annually worldwide with over 300 000 deaths [1]. Over 70% of these cases are in sub-Saharan Africa with correspondingly high mortality due to late presentation of cases and poor infrastructure for treatment of invasive cancer.

  • Accelerated Epigenetic Age Among Women with Invasive Cervical Cancer and HIV-Infection in Nigeria

    Open AccessJonah Musa, Kyeezu Kim et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background Invasive cervical cancer (ICC) is a serious public health burden in Nigeria, where human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains highly prevalent. Previous research suggested that epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) could play a role in detection of HIV-associated ICC. However, little research has been conducted on this topic in Africa where the population is most severely affected by HIV-associated ICC. Here, we investigated the associatio…

  • Association of ongoing drug and alcohol use with non-adherence to antiretroviral therapy and higher risk of Aids and death

    Susan E Cohn, Hongyu Jiang et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2011

    Drug and alcohol use have been associated with a worse prognosis in short-term and cross-sectional analyses of HIV-infected populations, but longitudinal effects on adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and clinical outcomes in advanced AIDS are less well characterized. We assessed self-reported drug and alcohol use in AIDS patients, and examined their association with non-adherence and death or disease progression in a multicenter observatio…

  • The progression of untreated HIV-1 infection prior to Aids

    Donald R Hoover, Alfred J Saah et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1992Cited by: 2References: 10

    Using a case-control study of untreated men, we investigated the physical, mental, and economic effects of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection prior to the diagnosis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Beginning 2 to 2.5 years prior to AIDS, case subjects reported more of 12 HIV-1 related symptoms and during the year prior to AIDS, at least 30.6 extra days of these symptoms than did control subjects. Within the 6 months prece…
