Costs and cost-effectiveness of an infection prevention bundle to reduce neonatal sepsis and mortality in Zambia
The Sepsis Prevention in Neonates in Zambia (SPINZ) trial was a prospective observational cohort study conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit of the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka, Zambia. Introduction of an infection prevention and control (IPC) bundle reduced hospital-associated mortality, total mortality, suspected sepsis, and confirmed bloodstream infections. This companion analysis was undertaken to analyze intervention costs …
A pragmatic pipeline for drug resistance and lineage identification in Mycobacterium tuberculosis using whole genome sequencing
Delays in accurate diagnosis of drug resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) can hinder treatment. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) provides more information than standard molecular and phenotypic testing, but commonly used platforms are expensive to implement, and data interpretation requires significant expertise. We aimed to optimise a TB WGS diagnostic pipeline balancing user-friendliness, cost-effectiveness and time to results, whilst ensuring accuracy.…
Unveiling the hidden threats
Background Infectious disease agents of animal origin, which can cause mild to severe illnesses in humans, are increasingly spilling over into human populations. Southern Africa, particularly Zambia as a regional transport hub, has experienced notable outbreaks of zoonotic pathogens in recent years. This context underscores the importance of research, as numerous studies over the past 33 years have reported various infectious agents with differin…
Independent and combined effects of improved water, sanitation, and hygiene, and improved complementary feeding, on child stunting and anaemia in rural Zimbabwe
BACKGROUND: Child stunting reduces survival and impairs neurodevelopment. We tested the independent and combined effects of improved water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), and improved infant and young child feeding (IYCF) on stunting and anaemia in in Zimbabwe. METHODS: We did a cluster-randomised, community-based, 2 × 2 factorial trial in two rural districts in Zimbabwe. Clusters were defined as the catchment area of between one and four villag…
