    Benoît Cesaire Samadoulougou, Seni Kouanda et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2022

    Our study aims to determine the predictors of access to HIV services among disabled persons in two West African countries. This was a secondary analysis from a cross-sectional study carried out in Burkina Faso, in 2017 and Niger, in 2018. People with a disability of severity 3 or 4 and aged 15-69 were included in the study. Access to HIV-related services was measured separately through three variables (access to condoms when needed, history of te…

  • Determinants and causes of mortality in HIV-infected patients receiving antiretroviral therapy in Burkina Faso

    Seni Kouanda, Ivlabèhiré Bertrand Meda et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2012

    In this study, we investigated the causes of death and the factors associated with mortality in a cohort of patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in Burkina Faso, an African country with limited resources. This retrospective cohort study included patients aged 15 years and older who started HAART for the first time between January 2003 and December 2008 in 14 health districts. We used survival analyses, including the Kap…

  • User fees and access to ARV treatment for persons living with HIV/Aids

    Seni Kouanda, Fadima Yaya Bocoum et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2010

    Access to antiretroviral (ARV) treatment remains a crucial problem for patients living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in limited-resources countries. Some African countries have adopted the principle of providing ARV free of charge, but Burkina Faso opted for a direct out-of-pocket payment at the point of care delivery, with subsidized payments and mechanisms for the poorest populations to receive these services free of charge. Our objectives were to dete…

  • Impact of maternal Haart on the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV

    Seni Kouanda, Halima Tougri et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2010

    Mother-to-child transmission remains the main cause of global pediatric HIV infections, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Many interventions based on single-dose antiretroviral therapy have been implemented to reduce the mother-to-child transmission of HIV. In resource-limited settings, highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has only been recommended for HIV-infected pregnant women requiring treatment for their own health. Here, we assessed…

  • Rates of coverage and determinants of complete vaccination of children in rural areas of Burkina Faso (1998-2003)

    Open AccessDrissa Sia, Pierre Fournier et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2009

    Complete vaccination coverage of children is improving in a context of worsening poverty. Education no longer represents an advantage in relation to vaccination. Continuity from prenatal care to institutional delivery creates a loyalty to healthcare services and is the most significant and stable explanatory factor associated with complete vaccination of children. Healthcare service utilization is the result of a dynamic process of interaction be…
