  • Can audit and feedback improve health service readiness and delivery outcomes in a low-resource setting? Effectiveness results of the Ideas strategy from central Mozambique

    Open AccessAneth Dinis, Orvalho Augusto et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Limited evidence exists on audit and feedback(A&F) in low-resource contexts. We tested the Integrated District Evidence-to-Action (IDEAs), a multicomponent A&F strategy in Mozambique’s maternal and child health (MCH) services. IDEAs include A&F meetings, readiness assessments, and facility support. We report the effectiveness results. IDEAs were implemented in 2016–2020 across two provinces, 12 districts, and 154 primary health facilities in Moza…

  • HIV viral load testing and monitoring in Côte d’Ivoire

    Open AccessKathryn E Kemper, Orvalho Augusto et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Routine viral load (VL) monitoring is the standard of care in Côte d’Ivoire and allows for effective treatment guidance for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) to reach viral load suppression (VLS). For VL monitoring to be effective in reducing the impact of HIV, it must be provided in accordance with national guidance. This study aimed to evaluate VL testing, VLS rates and adherence to national guidance for VL testing using dat…

  • Covid-19-related healthcare impacts

    Open AccessIvan Manhiça, Orvalho Augusto et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    INTRODUCTION: Currently, COVID-19 dominates the public health agenda and poses a permanent threat, leading to health systems' exhaustion and unprecedented service disruption. Primary healthcare services, including tuberculosis services, are at increased risk of facing severe disruptions, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries. Indeed, corroborating model-based forecasts, there is increasing evidence of the COVID-19 pandemic's nega…

  • Turning the tide on female genital mutilation in a high prevalence country

    Open AccessWisal Ahmed, N Puttkammer et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    Sudan has about 87% of females aged 15–49 years living with female genital mutilation (FGM), mostly performed by midwives (64%). In 2016, the Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH) adopted the WHO’s global strategy to stop healthcare providers from performing FGM. Our review of activity reports from 2016 to 2018 found the format of activities (N=95) was mainly meetings (58%) and trainings (31%) with median costs of US$10 645 and US$14 964, respectivel…

  • The neglected epidemic—Risk factors associated with road traffic injuries in Mozambique

    Open AccessAndré Peralta‐Santos, Steven Gimbel et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    In 2019, 93% of road traffic injury related mortality occurred in low- and middle-income countries, an estimated burden of 1.3 million deaths. This problem is growing; by 2030 road traffic injury will the seventh leading cause of death globally. This study both explores factors associated with RTIs in the central region of Mozambique, as well as pinpoints geographical “hotspots” of RTI incidence. A cross-sectional, population-level survey was car…

  • Trends and outcomes in primary health care expenditures in low-income and middle-income countries, 2000–2017

    Open AccessMatthew Schneider, Matthew T Schneider et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2021

    INTRODUCTION: As the world responds to COVID-19 and aims for the Sustainable Development Goals, the potential for primary healthcare (PHC) is substantial, although the trends and effectiveness of PHC expenditure are unknown. We estimate PHC expenditure for each low-income and middle-income country between 2000 and 2017 and test which health outputs and outcomes were associated with PHC expenditure. METHODS: We used three data sources to estimate …

  • Development assistance for health and the Middle East and North Africa

    Open AccessYingxi Zhao, Angela E Micah et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2020

    BACKGROUND: Donor countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been among the largest donors in the world. However, little is known about their contributions for health. In this study, we addressed this gap by estimating the amount of development assistance for health (DAH) contributed by MENA country donors from 2000 to 2017. METHODS: We tracked DAH provided and received …

  • Wait and consult times for primary healthcare services in central Mozambique

    Open AccessBradley H Wagenaar, Steven Gimbel et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2016

    BACKGROUND: We describe wait and consult times across public-sector clinics and identify health facility determinants of wait and consult times. DESIGN: We observed 8,102 patient arrivals and departures from clinical service areas across 12 public-sector clinics in Sofala and Manica Provinces between January and April 2011. Negative binomial generalized estimating equations were used to model associated health facility factors. RESULTS: Mean wait…

  • Loss to Follow-Up Among HIV-Exposed Children in an HIV Clinic in Beira, Mozambique

    Open AccessAna Judith Blanco Rojas, Ana Judith Blanco et al.ARTICLESAGE Open2015

    Loss to follow-up contributes to the low coverage of HIV care interventions among HIV-exposed infants in Beira, Mozambique. This qualitative study explores the perceptions of HIV-infected women and their health care providers regarding the main obstacles preventing women from attending follow-up visits for HIV care, and factors influencing women’s decisions about newborn care. Fifty-two in-depth interviews and two focus group discussions were con…

  • Treatment partners and adherence to Haart in Central Mozambique

    Benjamin A Stubbs, Mark A Micek et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2009

    Adherence to highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) has been associated with increased survival rates and decreased drug resistance in various settings. There is growing concern that loss to follow-up will increase and adherence rates will decrease as HAART programs are expanded in resource-limited settings. In Central Mozambique, an innovative program was implemented, using community-based (trained community activists) and self-selected …

  • Discussion and revision of the mathematical modeling tool described in the previously published article “Modeling HIV Transmission risk among Mozambicans prior to their initiating highly active antire…

    Susan Cassel, Susan Cassels et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2009

    Mathematical models are increasingly used in social and behavioral studies of HIV transmission; however, model structures must be chosen carefully to best answer the question at hand and conclusions must be interpreted cautiously. In Pearson et al. (2007), we presented a simple analytically tractable deterministic model to estimate the number of secondary HIV infections stemming from a population of HIV-positive Mozambicans and to evaluate how th…

  • Modeling HIV transmission risk among Mozambicans prior to their initiating highly active antiretroviral therapy

    Cynthia Pearson, C R Pearson et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2007

    Understanding sexual behavior and assessing transmission risk among people living with HIV-1 is crucial for effective HIV-1 prevention. We describe sexual behavior among HIV-positive persons initiating highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in Beira, Mozambique. We present a Bernoulli process model (tool available online) to estimate the number of sexual partners who would acquire HIV-1 as a consequence of sexual contact with study particip…

  • Antenatal syphilis in sub-Saharan Africa

    Open AccessStephen GloydARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2001

    PURPOSE: Between 4-15% of pregnant women are believed to be infected with syphilis in sub-Saharan Africa. Active infection with syphilis in pregnant women results in foetal or infant death or disability for 50-80% of affected pregnancies, and is a major cause of adult morbidity as well. Antenatal syphilis screening is cheap and effective; however, it is often poorly implemented in countries with high syphilis risk. This study sought to estimate t…

    Discharge information was obtained from pediatric ward logbooks of the Centre Hospitalier Régional de Bouaké from 1982 to 1992. While number of children admitted per month and discharge diagnosis remained relatively stable throughout the period, the proportion of children who left the hospital against medical advice increased by nearly 5 times during the 11-year period to over 12% of all pediatric admissions. The proportion of discharges against …

  • Unlicensed midwifery practice in Washington state

    S J Myers, Patricia A St Clair et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1990Citada por: 1Referencias: 2

    We examined the role of unlicensed midwives in Washington State by questioning mothers of infants born out-of-hospital with an unlicensed person in attendance. Only a small proportion of the state's births (0.11 percent) were attended by unlicensed midwives. Unlicensed midwives attended 7 percent of home births, licensed midwives and certified nurse-midwives attended 69 percent. Mothers chose unlicensed midwives because they had religious beliefs…
