  • Trends and country-level variation in age at first sex in sub-Saharan Africa among birth cohorts entering adulthood between 1985 and 2020

    Open AccessVăn Kính Nguyễn, John W Eaton et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    AFS increased slightly in most SSA countries, but changes were modest relative to large and persistent variation between countries and sexes, indicating relatively entrenched socio-cultural practices around sexual debut. Sexual health, family planning, and HIV/STI prevention services should adapt to local practices rather than focusing interventions to change AFS. These estimates for rates of sexual debut provide data to guide programmatic priori…

  • Population-level adult mortality following the expansion of antiretroviral therapy in Rakai, Uganda

    Open AccessDorean Nabukalu, Georges Reniers et al.ARTICLEPopulation Studies2020References: 30

    There are limited data on the impact of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on population-level adult mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. We analysed data for 2000-14 from the Rakai Community Cohort Study (RCCS) in Uganda, where free ART was scaled up after 2004. Using non-parametric and parametric (Weibull) survival analysis, we estimated trends in average person-years lived between exact ages 15 and 50, per capita life-years lost to HIV, and the mortalit…

  • Mapping HIV prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa between 2000 and 2017

    Open AccessLaura Dwyer-Lindgren, Laura Dwyer‐Lindgren et al.ARTICLENature2019

    HIV/AIDS is a leading cause of disease burden in sub-Saharan Africa. Existing evidence has demonstrated that there is substantial local variation in the prevalence of HIV; however, subnational variation has not been investigated at a high spatial resolution across the continent. Here we explore within-country variation at a 5 × 5-km resolution in sub-Saharan Africa by estimating the prevalence of HIV among adults (aged 15–49 years) and the corres…

  • Non-disclosure of HIV testing history in population-based surveys

    Open AccessChristopher T Rentsch, Georges Reniers et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2018

    Background: HIV/AIDS programmes and organisations around the world use routinely updated estimates of the UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets to track progress and prioritise further programme implementation. Any bias in these estimates has the potential to mislead organisations on where gaps exist in HIV testing and treatment programmes. Objective: To measure the extent of undisclosed HIV testing history and its impact on estimating the proportion of people…

  • Prevalence and Associations of Psychological Distress, HIV Infection and HIV Care Service Utilization in East Zimbabwe

    Open AccessMalebogo Tlhajoane, John W Eaton et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2017

    The correlation between mental health and sexual risk behaviours for HIV infection remains largely unknown in low and middle income settings. The present study determined the prevalence of psychological distress (PD) in a sub-Saharan African population with a generalized HIV epidemic, and investigated associations with HIV acquisition risk and uptake of HIV services using data from a cross-sectional survey of 13,252 adults. PD was measured using …

  • The relationship between parental education and children’s schooling in a time of economic turmoil

    Open AccessErica L Pufall, John W Eaton et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2016Cited by: 2References: 5

    Using data collected from 1998 to 2011 in a general population cohort study in eastern Zimbabwe, we describe education trends and the relationship between parental education and children's schooling during the Zimbabwean economic collapse of the 2000s. During this period, the previously-rising trend in education stalled, with girls suffering disproportionately; however, female enrolment increased as the economy began to recover. Throughout the pe…

  • Effects of cash transfers on Children’s health and social protection in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Open AccessThomas M Crea, Andrew D Reynolds et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    Orphaned children are at higher risk for poor social protection outcomes even when cared for in family-based settings. UCT and CCT each produced direct effects on children's social protection which are not moderated by other child- and household-level risk factors, but orphans are less likely to attend school or obtain birth registration. The effects of UCT and CCT are not moderated by asset-holding, but greater household assets predict greater s…

  • The impact of HIV on children's education in eastern Zimbabwe

    Erica L Pufall, Constance Nyamukapa et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2014

    Little is known about how HIV impacts directly and indirectly on receiving, or particularly succeeding in, education in sub-Saharan Africa. To address this gap, we used multivariable logistic regression to determine the correlation between education outcomes in youth (aged 15-24) (being in the correct grade-for-age, primary school completion and having at least five "O" level passes) and being HIV-positive; having an HIV-positive parent; being a …

  • Asset ownership among households caring for orphans and vulnerable children in rural Zimbabwe

    Thomas M Crea, Margaret Lombe et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2013

    The high prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome in sub-Saharan Africa has resulted in a dramatic increase in orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) over the past decade. These children typically rely on extended family networks for support, but the magnitude of the crisis has resulted in traditional familial networks becoming overwhelmed and more economically and socially vulnerable. Previous research consis…

  • Involving Communities in the Targeting of Cash Transfer Programs for Vulnerable Children

    Open AccessLaura Robertson, Phyllis Mushati et al.ARTICLEWorld Development2013Cited by: 3References: 4

    We used baseline data, collected in July-September 2009, from a randomized controlled trial of a cash transfer program for vulnerable children in eastern Zimbabwe to investigate the effectiveness, coverage, and efficiency of census- and community-based targeting methods for reaching vulnerable children. Focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with beneficiaries and other stakeholders were used to explore community perspectives on targetin…
