  • Frontline healthcare worker barriers impacting tuberculosis service demand and access in high burden settings

    Open AccessSamyra R Cox, Colleen F Hanrahan et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2026

    Background: Extensive literature exists on health-seeking behaviour and barriers related to the uptake of tuberculosis (TB)-related services in high TB burden settings. However, prior reviews have focused on patient- and health facility/systems-level barriers to TB-related care. In this scoping review, we aimed to synthesise frontline healthcare worker (FLHCW)-related barriers that limit individuals' demand for, access to, and retention in TB ser…

    INTRODUCTION: Towards the 'End TB Strategy' targets, the WHO recommends the provision of tuberculosis (TB) preventive therapy (TPT) for high-risk groups including people living with HIV (PLWH). 3 years after the release of the updated 2020 WHO guidelines, we investigated the implementation of TPT services at HIV clinics in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), focusing on TB screening, populations eligible for TPT and available TPT regi…

  • A cluster-randomized trial of household vs incentive-based tuberculosis contact investigation in rural South Africa

    Open AccessEteri Machavariani, Samyra R Cox et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    The World Health Organization recommends TB contact investigation in high-burden countries. We examined the implementation reach of two contact investigation strategies in South Africa . Kharitode TB, a cluster-randomized crossover trial, compared household- and incentive-based contact investigation in 28 clinics (July 2016-January 2020). Clinics used each strategy for 18 months (separated by a six-month “washout”). Adults recently diagnosed with…

  • Integrating services for HIV and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis

    Open AccessKathrin Zürcher, Samyra R Cox et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death among PLHIV and multidrug-resistant-TB (MDR-TB) is associated with high mortality. We examined the management for adult PLHIV coinfected with MDR-TB at ART clinics in lower income countries. Between 2019 and 2020, we conducted a cross-sectional survey at 29 ART clinics in high TB burden countries within the global IeDEA network. We used structured questionnaires to collect clinic-level data on the T…
