Risk factors for long Covid among participants of a population-based study in urban and rural Kenya, 2021
PCC were found in approximately one-fifth to one-third of participants with the presence of underlying medical conditions being a common risk factor in all outcomes. Advocacy for the prioritization of interventions such as vaccination of persons with underlying medical conditions could consequently result in a reduction in the risk of PCC
The effect of Covid-19 pandemic on healthcare seeking in an urban informal settlement in Nairobi and a rural setting in western Kenya
The COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread changes and disruptions to healthcare seeking behavior. There are limited studies on the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare seeking patterns in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs), especially in settings with inequitable access to healthcare in rural and urban informal settlements. We investigated the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on reported healthcare seeking at health facilities and chem…
Association between low maternal serum aflatoxin B1 exposure and adverse pregnancy outcomes in Mombasa, Kenya, 2017–2019
We examined the association between serum aflatoxin B1-lysine adduct (AFB1-lys) levels in pregnant women and adverse pregnancy outcomes (low birthweight, miscarriage and stillbirth) through a nested matched case-control study of pregnant women enroled at ≤28 weeks' gestation in Mombasa, Kenya, from 2017 to 2019. Cases comprised women with an adverse birth outcome, defined as either delivery of a singleton infant weighing <2500 g, or a miscarriage…
Estimating excess mortality during the Covid-19 pandemic from a population-based infectious disease surveillance in two diverse populations in Kenya, March 2020-December 2021
Robust data on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mortality in Africa are relatively scarce. Using data from two well-characterized populations in Kenya we aimed to estimate excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic period. The mortality data arise from an ongoing population-based infectious disease surveillance (PBIDS) platform, which has been operational since 2006 in rural western Kenya (Asembo, Siaya County) and an urban informal sett…
Mortality patterns over a 10-year period in Kibera, an urban informal settlement in Nairobi, Kenya, 2009–2018
Background Reliable mortality data are important for evaluating the impact of health interventions. However, data on mortality patterns among populations living in urban informal settlements are limited.Objectives To examine the mortality patterns and trends in an urban informal settlement in Kibera, Nairobi, Kenya,Methods Using data from a population-based surveillance platform we estimated overall and cause-specific mortality rates for all age …
