A baseline cross-sectional survey of women’s and household-level health indicators in Tsakare Community, Mount Darwin District, Zimbabwe
Prevalence and risk factors for diabetic foot complications among people living with diabetes in Harare, Zimbabwe

There is an urgent need for policy revisions to include foot screening in routine primary care and increasing insulin use for PLWD to prevent complications such as DF as an integral part of primary care
Optimising the adult HIV testing services screening tool to predict positivity yield in Zimbabwe, 2022
HIV positivity yield declined against increasing testing volumes in Zimbabwe, from 20% (1.65 million tests) in 2011 to 6% (3 million tests) in 2018. A screening tool was introduced to aid testers to identify clients likely to obtain a positive diagnosis of HIV. Consequently, testing volumes declined to 2.3 million in 2019 but positivity declined to 5% prompting the evaluation and validation of the tool to improve its precision in predicting posit…
