The objective of this study was to describe the trends and profiles of unvaccinated children in Guinea in 1999, 2012, and 2018. Methods and materials: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted from July to December 2024, focusing on children aged 12 to 24 months, as well as their mothers, using secondary data from the 1999…
Healthcare providers’ knowledge, perceptions and practices of malaria control strategies in the Republic of Guinea
BACKGROUND: Despite ongoing malaria control efforts, barriers such as delayed diagnosis, poor quality treatment and out-of-pocket expenditure persist. This study explores healthcare providers' knowledge, perceptions and practice of malaria control interventions to optimise strategies. METHODS: A qualitative study was conducted between December 2022 and March 2023. Data were collected in nine health districts through 63 individual interviews and 1…
Performance of the One Health platform in zoonotic disease surveillance in Guinea
Introduction: Zoonoses are a major global health threat, especially in low-income countries, due to their prevalence and emergence. Repeated outbreaks emphasize the need for integrated, multisectoral surveillance. While the One Health approach is essential, its implementation faces major barriers. Tools like JEE and OH-EpiCap help assess and improve these systems. This study aims to assess the functioning and effectiveness of regional One Health …
Factors associated with HIV-positive status among men who have sex with men in Guinea in 2022
Introduction/Context Men who have sex with men (MSM) continue to carry a disproportionate burden of HIV in West and Central Africa, where stigma, criminalization, and legal restrictions hinder access to essential prevention and treatment services. In Guinea, data on HIV-related risk factors among MSM remain scarce. Objective This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of HIV and identify factors associated with HIV seropositivity among MSM in Gui…
Prevalence and factors associated with maternal and neonatal sepsis in sub-Saharan Africa
Malaria trends in districts that were targeted and not-targeted for seasonal malaria chemoprevention in children under 5 years of age in Guinea, 2014–2021
BACKGROUND: Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) is a main intervention to prevent and reduce childhood malaria. Since 2015, Guinea has implemented SMC targeting children aged 3-59 months (CU5) in districts with high and seasonal malaria transmission. OBJECTIVE: We assessed the programmatic impact of SMC in Guinea's context of scaled up malaria intervention programming by comparing malaria-related outcomes in 14 districts that had or had not be…
Seroprevalence of seven arboviruses of public health importance in sub-Saharan Africa
Prevalence, risks factors, and control of hypertension in Guinean older adults in 2021
Hypertension is a major problem in the elderly population in Guinea, and the level of treatment and control in elderly with known hypertension is inadequate. The place of hypertension among cardiovascular diseases and the identification of associated factors underlines the need to develop innovative approaches to control this major risk factor
Factors associated with the nutritional status of children under 5 years of age in Guinea between 2005 and 2018
Objective: To determine the factors associated with the nutritional status of children under 5 years of age in Guinea between 2005 and 2018. Design: Data from the 2005, 2012 and 2018 Guinea Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) were used for this study. Three anthropometric indicators (stunting, underweight and wasting) were assessed according to the 2006 WHO Child Growth Standards and analysed according to the year, the characteristics of the hou…
