Prevalence and factors associated with obesity in Rwanda
Obesity is an emerging public health concern in Rwanda, yet nationally representative data on its associated factors remain limited. This study analyzes recent survey data to assess the prevalence of obesity and explore associated demographic, behavioral, and metabolic characteristics. The study analyzed data from the 2022 Rwanda NCD STEPS Survey, a nationally representative cross-sectional study of 5,509 adults aged 18–69 years. Data collection …
Sensitivity and specificity of Dried Blood Spot and Plasma Separation Card samples for Hepatitis C Virus RNA Testing
Dried blood spots (DBS) and plasma separation cards (PSC) have the potential to improve access to hepatitis C virus (HCV) testing. This multicenter study evaluated the performance of two HCV RNA assay platforms using capillary or venous DBS and PSC. Participants were enrolled in Cameroon, Rwanda, Georgia, and Greece. DBS and PSC prepared from capillary and venous blood samples were collected from three target populations; individuals at risk of H…
Three decades of community health workers in primary healthcare delivery in Rwanda
BACKGROUND: Community health workers (CHWs) have been instrumental in the delivery of primary healthcare (PHC) services in Rwanda since 1995, with their responsibilities expanding from basic health promotion to integrated community case management. This study explored the evolution, contributions, challenges and policy implications of Rwanda CHW programme over the past three decades. METHODS: A qualitative descriptive study was conducted across 1…
Governance and structure of national public health agencies
BOX National Public Health Agencies (NPHAs) play a critical role in national and global health security, coordinating and leading the response to public health emergencies
Strategies for mitigating emerging artemisinin-based antimalarial drug resistance in Rwanda
Malaria treatment failures associated with reduced efficacy of chloroquine (CQ) and amodiaquine (AQ) antimalarial drugs emerged in Rwanda during the 1980s, prompting the policy shift towards adopting artemisinin-based combination therapies in 2006 as an alternative. However, recent findings from malaria surveillance and therapeutic efficacy studies have revealed a countrywide increase in antimalarial drug resistance. Particularly, artemether-lume…
Resurgence of Intestinal Parasitic Infections in the United Villages Region, Northern Khartoum state
Intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) are a silent struggle affecting people globally. Their impact is particularly devastating in developing countries like Sudan, a sub-Saharan African country where the healthcare system was already on the brink; the eruption of a devastating war has resulted in many outbreaks of infectious diseases. This study sheds light on the distressing resurgence of Intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) amidst the armed …
Prevalence and Factors Associated with Repeat Mental Health Service Utilization During Rwanda’s Genocide Commemoration Week
The genocide commemoration week in Rwanda often triggers heightened mental health (MH) needs, necessitating targeted support. Understanding factors influencing repeat MH service utilization is essential for effective interventions. This cross-sectional study analyzed data from individuals seeking MH services during the 2024 Rwandan genocide commemoration week, distinguishing between first-time and repeat users. Descriptive and logistic regression…
Prevalence of Non-Daily Teeth Cleaning and Its Associated Factors Among Adult Population in Rwanda
Oral hygiene practices are vital for maintaining health, yet many adults do not engage in daily teeth cleaning. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and determinants of non-daily teeth cleaning among adults in Rwanda using data from the 2022 Rwanda Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) STEPS Survey which used a cross-sectional design and multistage cluster sampling. Weighted prevalence estimates and logistic regression models were used to examine …
Undetectable = Untransmittable (U = U)
Our findings highlight the necessity for broader dissemination of the U = U concept across all PLWH subpopulations. Further research is essential to better understand the challenges faced by PLWH, which is critical for achieving the UNAIDS goal of ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2030
The use of innovative approaches to strengthen health system resilience during the Covid-19 pandemic
This article is part of the Research Topic ‘ Health Systems Recovery in the Context of COVID-19 and Protracted Conflict ’. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the vulnerabilities and limitations of many health systems and underscored the need for strengthening health system resilience to make and sustain progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC), global health security and healthier populations in tandem. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic,…
Care seeking and treatment for hepatitis C infection in Rwanda
An estimated 71 million people live with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and without an effective vaccination, control efforts depend entirely on prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment with direct acting antiviral medication. The experiences of accessing care and treatment, as well as how HCV is locally perceived, are context specific and require an understanding of local epidemics. The objectives of this study were to explore the experiences and dem…
