  • QT prolongation risk factors and a monitoring strategy in rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis

    Open AccessGareth Hughes, Elena Frangou et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Treatment of rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) involves drugs that can prolong the QT interval. There is limited data on risk factors and the level of cardiac monitoring required. We analysed STREAM Stage 2 data to address these issues. A post-hoc analysis was undertaken of data from participants allocated to 3 regimens: 9-month control (n = 202), 9-month oral (n = 211) and 6-month (n = 143). Risk factors for development of a QT or QTcF (…

  • HIV Incidence Among Non-Pregnant Women Living in Selected Rural, Semi-Rural and Urban Areas in Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa

    Open AccessGita Ramjee, Handan Wand et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2011

    The province of KwaZulu-Natal has the highest prevalence of HIV in South Africa, particularly among young women. In order to more closely examine the HIV prevalence and incidence in non-pregnant women from rural, semi-rural and urban areas, data from 5,753 women screened for enrolment into three HIV prevention studies were combined and analysed. The prevalence of HIV infection was 43% at screening. HIV incidence among the 2,523 enrolled HIV-negat…

  • The orphan problem

    Anatoli Kamali, Janet Seeley et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care1996

    An assessment of the prevalence of orphans and the magnitude of their problems and the extent to which HIV-1 is contributing to this was done in a rural population in South-West Uganda with an HIV-1 seroprevalence of 8% among adults. Slightly over 10% of children aged less than 15 years were reported to have lost one or both parents. Loss of the father alone (6.3%) was more common than loss of the mother alone (2.8%). Generally orphans were livin…

  • Socioeconomic Status, Gender, and Risk of HIV-1 Infection in a Rural Community in South West Uganda

    Open AccessJanet Seeley, Janet A Seeley et al.ARTICLEMedical Anthropology Quarterly1994Cited by: 11References: 14

    This report explores the hypothesis that the presence of HIV infection in rural south west Uganda is associated with socioeconomic status and gender. As part of an ethnographic, medical, and serological survey in 15 villages in Masaka district, population 9,950 persons, data were collected on a series of possible socioeconomic indicators. Serological specimens were collected from all consenting individuals for the determination of HIV serostatus.…

  • Changes in tuberculosis notification rates in the white ethnic group in England and Wales between 1953 and 1983

    V H Springett, J H Darbyshire et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…1988Cited by: 2References: 13

    Since the early 1960s notification rates for tuberculosis in England and Wales for the whole population have been influenced by high rates in certain ethnic groups. Using data based on country of birth from the British (Thoracic and) Tuberculosis Association surveys of 1965 and 1971, and based on ethnic origin from the Medical Research Council surveys in 1978/79 and 1983, rates for the white ethnic group have been estimated at those four times, a…

  • Changes in annual tuberculosis notification rates between 1978/79 and 1983 for the population of Indian subcontinent ethnic origin resident in England

    Andrew Nunn, A J Nunn et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…1986Cited by: 1References: 1

    In two national surveys of tuberculosis notifications in England conducted in 1978/79 and 1983 the estimated annual notification rates for the Indian subcontinent (Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi) ethnic groups were considerably higher than the rate for the white ethnic group. The mean annual decline in rates between the surveys appeared to be greater for the Indian and the Pakistani and Bangladeshi ethnic groups, 15% and 16% respectively, tha…

  • A survey of ventilatory capacity in Chinese subjects in Hong Kong

    Open AccessLam Kwok-Kwong, Pang Shing-Chun et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1982

    A survey of three indices of ventilatory capacity (forced expiratory volume in one second, FEV1; forced vital capacity, FVC; and peak expiratory flow rate, PEFR) was carried out on 3490 Chinese inhabitants of Hong Kong aged between 5 and 97 years. The results are compared with those of previous surveys of ventilatory capacity in a variety of ethnic groups. Our results confirm previous findings that the indices FEV1 and FVC are proportional to the…
