Understanding the medical challenges for the diagnosis and treatment of bilateral pitting oedema in children
Severely malnourished patients can present with bilateral pitting oedema, which is a common sign of Kwashiorkor. However, bilateral pitting oedema can also be an expression of other pathologies. In Mali and DRC, the number of children presenting with bilateral pitting oedema at MSF (Médecins Sans Frontiers/Doctors Without Borders) hospitals are up to 30% (Mali) and 49% (DRC) higher than in other countries, however, the reasons underlying this tre…
Seroprevalence of Sars-CoV-2 antibodies and retrospective mortality in two African settings
Although seroprevalence studies have demonstrated the wide circulation of SARS-COV-2 in African countries, the impact on population health in these settings is still poorly understood. Using representative samples of the general population, we evaluated retrospective mortality and seroprevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in Lubumbashi and Abidjan. The studies included retrospective mortality surveys and nested anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody prevale…
Cervical cancer screening coverage and its related knowledge in southern Malawi
Most of the survey population had heard about CC. Despite this knowledge, fewer than half of eligible women had been screened for CC. Reasons given for not attending screening can be addressed by programs. To significantly reduce mortality due to CC in Malawi requires a comprehensive health strategy that focuses on prevention, screening and treatment
