Dynamics of land cover/land use with heat islands phenomenon and its ecological evaluation using remote sensing data (1992–2022)
Caregiver-assisted testing with HIV self-test kits for children 18 months and older
Caregiver-assisted testing using HIV self-test (CG-HIVST) kits has been proposed to enhance paediatric HIV case finding and contribute toward ending paediatric HIV/AIDS by 2030. We conducted a systematic review to assess the risks and benefits of CG-HIVST. We searched nine electronic databases and consulted experts to identify relevant articles through 5 February, 2022. Studies comparing CG-HIVST to other testing services among children over 18-m…
Use of indirect evidence from HIV self-testing to inform the WHO hepatitis C self-testing recommendation
Cost-effectiveness of Hepatitis C virus self-testing in four settings
Globally, there are approximately 58 million people with chronic hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) but only 20% have been diagnosed. HCV self-testing (HCVST) could reach those who have never been tested and increase uptake of HCV testing services. We compared cost per HCV viraemic diagnosis or cure for HCVST versus facility-based HCV testing services. We used a decision analysis model with a one-year time horizon to examine the key drivers of eco…
HCV Self-Testing to Expand Testing
Background: Hepatitis C virus self-testing (HCVST) may increase test uptake especially among marginalized key populations such as men who have sex with men (MSM). We conducted an observational study to assess the usability, acceptability and feasibility of HCVST among MSM in China. Methods: An observational study with convenience sampling was performed among MSM in Guangzhou, China in 2019. The OraQuick® HCV Rapid Antibody Test kits were used in …

Usability and acceptability of self-testing for hepatitis C virus infection among the general population in the Nile Delta region of Egypt
Our study demonstrates the high usability and acceptability of oral fluid HCVST in a general population. Further studies are needed to establish the optimal positioning of self-testing alongside facility-based testing to expand access to HCV diagnosis in both general and high-risk populations
Sustaining success
HIVST increases the frequency of HIV testing among gay and bisexual men due, in part, to the practical, psychological, and social benefits it offers. To capitalize fully on these benefits, however, strategies to ensure the availability of highly reliable HIVST are required to sustain benefits beyond the confines of a structured research study
Country adherence to WHO recommendations to improve the quality of HIV diagnosis
INTRODUCTION: Ensuring a correct and timely HIV diagnosis is critical. WHO publishes guidelines on HIV testing strategies that maximise the likelihood of correctly determining one's HIV status. A review of national HIV testing policies in 2014 found low adherence to WHO guidelines. We updated this review to determine adherence to current recommendations. METHODS: We conducted a comprehensive policy review through April 2018. We extracted data on …
