Determinants and gaps influencing zero-dose immunization and maternal Health service utilization in Nigeria
BACKGROUND: Nigeria continues to experience high maternal and child mortality, despite extensive health reforms and international investment. Missed opportunities across the continuum of care, antenatal care (ANC), skilled birth attendance, facility-based delivery, and child immunization, contribute to these outcomes. Children who receive no vaccines (zero-dose) reflect a key vulnerability in service delivery. OBJECTIVE: To identify factors assoc…

Rebuilding research capacity in fragile states
This paper presents an initiative to revive the previous Somali-Swedish Research Cooperation, which started in 1981 and was cut short by the civil war in Somalia. A programme focusing on research capacity building in the health sector is currently underway through the work of an alliance of three partner groups: six new Somali universities, five Swedish universities, and Somali diaspora professionals.

Effectiveness of an SMS-based maternal mHealth intervention to improve clinical outcomes of HIV-positive pregnant women
We conducted a retrospective study to investigate the effectiveness of an mHealth messaging intervention aiming to improve maternal health and HIV outcomes. Maternal health SMSs were sent to 235 HIV-infected pregnant women twice per week in pregnancy and continued until the infant's first birthday. The messages were timed to the stage of the pregnancy/infant age and covered maternal health and HIV-support information. Outcomes, measured as antena…
Opt-out HIV testing during antenatal care
Two years after the introduction of provider-initiated, opt-out HIV counselling and testing during antenatal care (ANC) in Uganda, HIV testing uptake is still low. This study was carried out to explore pregnant women's experiences of, and views on, the policies for opt-out, and couple HIV testing, and to understand how the policy implementation could be improved in order to increase access to prevention of mother-to-child-transmission (PMTCT) ser…
