What ails tuberculosis notification from the private sector in urban India
Open AccessAnand D Meundi, Jan Hendrik RichardusARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) case reporting is vital for national and subnational surveillance and is mandated in India since 2012. All health providers, public and private, must report through the web-based system, "Nikshay." The prevalence: notification ratio from 2019 to 2021 was 2.84 (prevalence was almost 3 times the notification), suggesting under-notification. This study explores the experiences, identifies barriers and facilitators, and …
The roles of the general practitioner and sexual health centre in HIV testing
Open AccessDenise E Twisk, Abraham Meima et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023
GPs have a pivotal role in HIV testing in less urbanised areas further away from the SHC, and among some population groups. A relatively high incidence often follows relatively high testing rates. Opportunities to improve HIV testing have been found for migrants, lower-educated individuals, in areas less urbanised areas and further away from GP/SHC. Strategies include additional targeted testing, via for example SHC branch locations and outreach …

Development of a TB vaccine trial site in Africa and lessons from the Ebola experience
Open AccessGrace Kaguthi, Videlis Nduba et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2020
Tuberculosis is the deadliest infection of our time. In contrast, about 11,000 people died of Ebola between 2014 and 2016. Despite this manifest difference in mortality, there is now a vaccine licensed in the United States and by the European Medicines Agency, with up to 100% efficacy against Ebola. The developments that led to the trialing of the Ebola vaccine were historic and unprecedented. The single licensed TB vaccine (BCG) has limited effi…

Are condom-promotion interventions reaching internal migrants in China? Integrated evidence from two cross-sectional surveys
Xiaona Liu, Vicki Erasmus et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2016
Behavioral interventions containing behavior change techniques (BCTs) that do not reach the target populations sufficiently will fail to accomplish their desired outcome. To guide sexually transmitted infection prevention policy for internal migrants in China, this study examines the extent to which BCTs aiming at increasing condom use reach the migrants and investigates the preference of the target population for these techniques among 364 migra…

Open AccessYtje van der Veen, Y J J Van Der Veen et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2014
UNLABELLED: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections are an important health problem in Turkish migrants in the Netherlands. This study describes the effectiveness of a culturally tailored internet intervention promoting HBV screening in Turkish migrants. METHODS: Turkish migrants, aged 16-40 years old, could participate in an online intervention offering either: (i) behaviourally plus culturally tailored (BCT) information; (ii) behaviourally tailored …
Q fever in the Netherlands
Open AccessMarloes Bults, D Beaujean et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2014
During future outbreaks of (zoonotic) infectious diseases, it will be important to instil a realistic sense of vulnerability by providing the public with accurate information on the risk of becoming infected. This should be given in addition to information about the severity of the disease, the efficacy of measures, and instructions for minimising infection risk with appropriate, feasible preventative measures. Furthermore, public information sho…

Increasing girls’ knowledge about human papillomavirus vaccination with a pre-test and a national leaflet
Open AccessRobine Hofman, Puck AWH Schiffers et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013
Reading the information leaflet had a positive effect on knowledge, even more so when boosted by a pre-test measurement. However, knowledge on the degree and duration of protection against cervical cancer remained limited. Focusing girls' attention on important aspects before they start reading the leaflet (e.g. by including a quiz on the first page) may serve to raise their awareness of these aspects

Development of a culturally tailored Internet intervention promoting hepatitis B screening in the Turkish community in the Netherlands
Open AccessYtje van der Veen, Y J J Van Der Veen et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2012
Hepatitis B virus infections are an important health problem in the Turkish community in the Netherlands. Screening for hepatitis B should be promoted through public health interventions, which take into account the socio-cultural and behavioural determinants that influence screening. The Intervention Mapping protocol was used to develop a culturally tailored Internet intervention for first-generation Turkish immigrants in Rotterdam, aged 16-40 y…
Determinants of intention to get tested for STI/HIV among the Surinamese and Antilleans in the Netherlands
Open AccessAlvin Westmaas, Alvin H Westmaas et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2012
The strong correlation and predictive power of subjective norms on the intention to get tested for STI/HIV, endorses the importance of focusing on community-based intervention rather than focusing on personal determinants, to change the present perceptions and attitudes towards testing. Health promoting programs should be aimed at promoting open communication regarding sexuality and testing. Stimulating each other to get tested frequently could a…
Perceived risk, anxiety, and behavioural responses of the general public during the early phase of the Influenza A (H1N1) pandemic in the Netherlands
Open AccessMarloes Bults, D Beaujean et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2011
Decreasing trends over time in perceived severity and anxiety are consistent with the reality: the clinical picture of influenza turned out to be mild in course of time. Although (inter)national health authorities initially overestimated the case fatality rate, the public stayed calm and remained to have a relatively high intention to comply with preventive measures

Awareness, knowledge and self-reported test rates regarding Hepatitis B in Turkish-Dutch
Open AccessYtje van der Veen, Ytje JJ van der Veen et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2010
This study shows low levels of hepatitis B awareness and knowledge in the Turkish community in Rotterdam. Self-reported test rates are lower in people who are not currently married, and in those who have low levels of awareness and knowledge. Especially, knowledge about the consequences of hepatitis B, such as liver cancer, was lacking. Therefore, a health promotion intervention should foremost raise awareness, and increase knowledge on the serio…
