Patient knowledge, attitudes and practices on chronic wound infections in Tanga Regional Referral Hospital, Tanzania; A qualitative study
Bacterial wound infections contribute significantly to global mortality, with nearly half of contaminated wounds progressing to chronic states, which can result in amputations. In Tanzania, the situation is worsened by the misuse of antibiotics and the rise of drug-resistant bacteria, alongside patients’ varied understanding of wound care management. This qualitative study explores patient knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding chron…
Malaria-malnutrition interaction
Although substantial efforts to control malaria are ongoing in the study setting, the dual burden of malaria and malnutrition remains significant. Anti-malaria use for preventive purpose may not be sufficient to improve nutritional status, reinforcing that integrated interventions are required to address both malaria and malnutrition. Public health efforts should combine malaria control with nutrition programs, including community-driven strategi…
High Prevalence of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Rural Tanzania—Diagnosis Mainly Based on Fasting Blood Glucose from Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with poor pregnancy outcomes and increased long-term risk of metabolic diseases for both mother and child. In Tanzania, GDM prevalence increased from 0% in 1991 to 19.5% in 2016. Anaemia has been proposed to precipitate the pathogenesis of GDM. We aimed to examine the prevalence of GDM in a rural area of Tanzania with a high prevalence of anaemia and to examine a potential association between haem…
Community perception on biomedical research
This study has shown that majority of community members had positive perceptions of the about malariometric surveys services provided. The availability of free health services was the major determining factor for community members' participation in malariometric surveys. CORPs are instrumental in mobilizing community members participation during malariometric surveys, despite their experiences and the challenges they face
