Persistently high TB prevalence in Nairobi County neighbourhoods, 2015–2022
National and sub-national population-based surveys, when performed at intervals, may assess important changes in TB prevalence. In 2022 we re-surveyed nine Nairobi County neighbourhoods that were previously surveyed in 2015. We aimed to determine pulmonary TB prevalence, compare prevalence to 2015 estimates, and evaluate changes in risk groups. Participants who reported cough of any duration and/or whose chest x-ray suggested TB submitted sputum …
Predictors of Health-Workforce Job Satisfaction in Primary Care Settings
Job satisfaction in sub-Saharan Africa is crucial as it directly impacts employee productivity, retention, and overall economic growth, fostering a motivated workforce that drives regional development. In sub-Saharan Africa, poor remuneration, limited professional development opportunities, and inadequate working conditions impact satisfaction. This study examined job-satisfaction predictors among health workers in primary healthcare settings acr…
Accuracy of computer-aided chest X-ray in community-based tuberculosis screening
Community-based screening for tuberculosis (TB) could improve detection but is resource intensive. We set out to evaluate the accuracy of computer-aided TB screening using digital chest X-ray (CXR) to determine if this approach met target product profiles (TPP) for community-based screening. CXR images from participants in the 2016 Kenya National TB Prevalence Survey were evaluated using CAD4TBv6 (Delft Imaging), giving a probabilistic score for …
Longitudinal-Survival Models for Case-Based Tuberculosis Progression
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) disease continues to be responsible for a high global burden with an estimated 10 million people falling ill each year and an estimated 1.45 million deaths. Widely carried out analyses to utilize routine data coming from this disease, and well-established in literature, have paid attention to time-to-event with sputum smear results being considered only at baseline or even ignored. Also, logistic regression models …
