  • Perceived benefits of community-based TB preventive treatment in children in Uganda

    Open AccessElijah Kakande, Jason Johnson-Peretz et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) uptake among children at risk for TB remains low in sub-Saharan Africa.

In-depth int…

  • Men “missing” from population-based HIV testing

    Open AccessCarol S Camlin, Emmanuel Ssemmondo et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2016

    Men's uptake of HIV testing is critical to the success of "test and treat" strategies in generalized epidemics. This study sought to identify cultural factors and community processes that influence men's HIV testing uptake in the baseline year of an ongoing test-and-treat trial among 334,479 persons in eastern Africa (SEARCH, NCT#01864603). Data were collected using participant observation at mobile community health campaigns (CHCs) (n = 28); foc…
