  • Efficient high-risk human papillomavirus screening through pooled testing

    Open AccessFengming Pan, Marcel JW Greuter et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2026

    Background: The World Health Organization recommends high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing as the primary method for cervical cancer screening. Combining samples in a pool can reduce the expense associated with large numbers of commercially available tests. This study simulated the potential test-saving impact of pooled hrHPV testing using real-world data from two low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods: We simulated a two- and…

  • The effect of hrHPV prevalence on cervical cancer screening strategies

    Open AccessFengming Pan, Jurjen van der Schans et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    Our study demonstrates that the hrHPV test + VIA strategy is cost-effective both compared to no screening and VIA + colposcopy screening strategy under the optimal (70%) and realistic (8.7%) uptake scenarios, with greater cost-effectiveness at higher hrHPV prevalence levels. While VIA-based strategy is cheaper, self-sampling hrHPV test-based strategy offers greater health benefits. Implementing hrHPV testing in national screening programs at lowe…

  • Early evaluation of a screen-and-treat strategy using high-risk HPV testing for Uganda

    Open AccessMarat Sultanov, Jurjen van der Schans et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2024

    Background: Uganda has a high burden of cervical cancer and its current coverage of screening based on visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) is low. High-risk HPV (hrHPV) testing is recommended by the World Health Organization as part of the global elimination strategy for cervical cancer. In this context, country-specific health economic evaluations can inform national-level decisions regarding implementation. We evaluated the recommended hrH…

  • Accelerated HIV testing for PMTCT in maternity and labour wards is vital to capture mothers at a critical point in the programme at district level in Malawi

    Jogchum Beltman, J J Beltman et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2010

    Round the clock (24 hours×7 days) HIV testing is vital to maintain a high prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) coverage for women delivering in district health facilities. PMTCT coverage increases when most of the pregnant women will have their HIV status tested. Therefore routine offering of HIV testing should be integrated and seen as a part of comprehensive antenatal care. For women who miss antenatal care and deliver in a health…
