Stakeholders’ perspectives on the management and prevention of non-communicable diseases in rural Tanzania
Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), such as hypertension, diabetes, sickle cell disease, and rheumatic heart disease, pose significant health burdens in low-income countries, not the least rural Tanzania, exacerbated by limited healthcare infrastructure, human and financial resources. This paper reports the perspectives of key stakeholders on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges (SWOC) in managing and preventing non-communicable…
Community benefits of mass distribution of three types of dual-active-ingredient long-lasting insecticidal nets against malaria prevalence in Tanzania
Our study demonstrated that at a community usage of 40% or more of dual-AI LLINs non-users benefited from the presence of these nets. Noticeably, even when usage was ≤ 40% in the chlorfenapyr arm, non-users were better protected than non-users in the higher coverage pyrethroid-only arm. The greater difference in malaria risk observed between users and non-users indicates that LLINs play a crucial role in providing personal protection against mala…
Assessing risk factors for malaria and schistosomiasis among children in Misungwi, Tanzania, an area of co-endemicity
Malaria and schistosomiasis are two major parasitic vector-borne diseases that are a particular threat to young children in Sub-Saharan Africa. In the present study, we investigated factors that are associated with malaria, schistosomiasis, and co-infection among school-aged children, using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods approach. A cross-sectional study was conducted in January 2022 in Misungwi, Tanzania, that sampled 1,122 children age…
