  • Characterization of 843 children with Zika-related microcephaly in the first three years of life

    Open AccessDemócrito De Barros Miranda Filho, Ricardo Arraes De Alencar Ximenes et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    One of the main gaps in characterizing the congenital Zika syndrome (CZS) up to now is the small number of participants in individual studies. Pooling the data together overcomes the sample size-related limitations of individual studies and provides an opportunity for investigating heterogeneity between studies and, as appropriate, to better characterize the CZS . This study aims to describe adverse anthropometric, clinical, and neuroimaging outc…

  • Covid-19 pandemic in Africa’s island nations during the first 9 months

    Open AccessTimokleia Kousi, Daniela Vivacqua et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    The geographic and economic characteristics unique to island nations create a different set of conditions for, and responses to, the spread of a pandemic compared with those of mainland countries. Here, we aimed to describe the initial period of the COVID-19 pandemic, along with the potential conditions and responses affecting variation in the burden of infections and severe disease burden, across the six island nations of the WHO’s Africa region…

  • An in-depth statistical analysis of the Covid-19 pandemic’s initial spread in the WHO African region

    Open AccessAnanthu James, Jyoti Dalal et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

Yet, there was also considerable variation between countries. Here, we explored potential drivers of this variation among 46 of the 47 WHO African region Member States in a cross-sectional study. We described five indi…

  • Leveraging human resources for outbreak analysis

    Open AccessSara Botero Mesa, Flavio Codeço Coelho et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    Emerging infectious diseases are a growing threat in sub-Saharan African countries, but the human and technical capacity to quickly respond to outbreaks remains limited. Here, we describe the experience and lessons learned from a joint project with the WHO Regional Office for Africa (WHO AFRO) to support the sub-Saharan African COVID-19 response.In June 2020, WHO AFRO contracted a number of consultants to reinforce the COVID-19 response in member…
