  • Feasibility, challenges, and lessons learned in implementing antiretroviral adherence club models in Northern Tanzania

We piloted community health worker-managed adherence clubs in two clinics in Shinyanga, Tanzania. We previously demonstrated better stability in care and improved treatment adherence following the establishment of clubs.

  • Hunger and Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy

    Open AccessAmon Exavery, 一浩 栗崎 et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    The association between hunger and adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is less known especially in vulnerable populations receiving HIV care and treatment services.

This research aims to evaluate an annual school-based LLIN distribution programme in Tanzania that began in 2013, c…

    Open AccessBeverly Msambichaka, Ramadhani Abdul et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2018

    Physical activity is essential for healthy aging. Evidence suggests that vigorous-intensity physical activity (VPA) may be more beneficial than moderate-intensity physical activity (MPA). We examined physical activity levels (MPA, VPA and total physical activity), and their socio-demographic determinants in 2311 participants (15−93 years; 68% women) of the MZIMA Open Community Cohort, who had complete relevant data. Physical activity levels were …
