An evaluation of a choice architecture-based intervention on prescribing of TB preventive treatment to people living with HIV in southern Africa (the CAT study)
INTRODUCTION: While highly effective for reducing the risk of tuberculosis (TB) disease, TB preventive treatment (TPT) is underused among people living with HIV (PWH). We evaluated the effectiveness of a behavioural economics-based choice architecture approach to increase facility-level TPT prescribing to PWH in Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. METHODS: We conducted a cluster-randomised trial within the IMPAACT4TB 3HP rollout, in which 57 healthc…
A cluster-randomized trial of household vs incentive-based tuberculosis contact investigation in rural South Africa
The World Health Organization recommends TB contact investigation in high-burden countries. We examined the implementation reach of two contact investigation strategies in South Africa . Kharitode TB, a cluster-randomized crossover trial, compared household- and incentive-based contact investigation in 28 clinics (July 2016-January 2020). Clinics used each strategy for 18 months (separated by a six-month “washout”). Adults recently diagnosed with…
Cost and cost-effectiveness of pediatric home-based versus facility-based TB Preventive Treatment in Ethiopia (CHIP-TB)
Tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) is an essential intervention recommended for all child contacts in Ethiopia under 15 years who are at risk of tuberculosis (TB) infection. We conducted a cost and cost-effectiveness analysis of home-based versus facility-based TPT provision for child contacts in Ethiopia. As part of the CHIP TB trial, a pragmatic, cluster-randomized trial conducted at eighteen clinics in Ethiopia, clinics were randomized to…
Group-based trajectory modeling to describe the geographical distribution of tuberculosis notifications
GBTM is a powerful tool for identifying geographic clusters of varying levels of TB notification when longitudinal data on the number of TB diagnoses are available. This analysis can inform the planning and evaluation of intervention strategies
Addressing the unmet mental health needs of people living with HIV
Some mental health interventions have addressed mental health among people living with HIV (PLWH) using a variety of approaches, but little is known about the details of such interventions in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), a region that bears the largest burden of HIV in the world. The present study describes mental health interventions for PLWH in SSA regardless of the date and language of publication. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Syst…
High occurrence of witnessing an opioid overdose in a sample of women who use heroin in Tanzania
How does learning one’s HIV status relate to viral suppression? an analysis among perinatally infected adolescents and young adults in Ndola, Zambia
Little data exist on how 15-to-24-year-old perinatally infected youth living with HIV (p-YLHIV) learn their HIV status, and how those disclosure experiences may relate to current viral suppression (VS). Cross-sectional analyses were conducted using baseline data from a randomized controlled trial testing a peer mentoring program in Ndola, Zambia. Analyses were restricted to self-reported p-YLHIV to assess associations between disclosure experienc…
Intimate partner violence, HIV and sexually transmitted infections in fishing, trading and agrarian communities in Rakai, Uganda
Programs should target factors at multiple levels to reduce risk for syndemic conditions of HIV, STI and IPV in Rakai, Uganda particularly among men and women in fishing communities
Efforts to alter the trajectory of neonatal mortality in Malawi
BACKGROUND: The neonatal mortality rate (NMR) in Malawi has remained stagnant at around 27 per 1000 live births over the last 15 years, despite an increase in the uptake of targeted health care interventions. We used the nationally representative 2015/16 Demographic Health Survey data set to evaluate the effect of two types of maternal exposures, namely, lack of access to maternal or intra-partum care services and birth history factors, on the ri…
Factors associated with delay in care–seeking for fatal neonatal illness in the Sylhet district of Bangladesh
BACKGROUND: We conducted a social and verbal autopsy study to determine cultural-, social- and health system-related factors that were associated with the delay in formal care seeking in Sylhet district, Bangladesh. METHODS: Verbal and social autopsy interviews were conducted with mothers who experienced a neonatal death between October 2007 and May 2011. We fitted a semi-parametric regression model of the cumulative incidence of seeking formal c…
Equity improvements in maternal and newborn care indicators
Community-based maternal and newborn care interventions have been shown to improve neonatal survival and other key health indicators. It is important to evaluate whether the improvement in health indicators is accompanied by a parallel increase in the equitable distribution of the intervention activities, and the uptake of healthy newborn care practices. We present an analysis of equity improvements after the implementation of a Community Based N…
Contribution of community-based newborn health promotion to reducing inequities in healthy newborn care practices and knowledge
Although these results indicate promising improvements for newborn health in Malawi, the extent to which the CBMNC program contributed to these improvements in coverage and equity are not known. The strategies through which community-based programs are implemented likely play an important role in their ability to improve equity, and further research and program monitoring are needed to ensure that the poorest households are reached by community-b…
