  • Micro-costing for national-scale azithromycin mass drug administration to improve child survival in Niger

    Open AccessBrittany Peterson, William Nguyen et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    As programs for azithromycin mass drug administration (AZ-MDA) to reduce child mortality have begun in some parts of West Africa, it is imperative to understand their financial costs. We combined a micro-costing framework and observations from an implementation-focused sub-study within the AVENIR trials in 80 communities in the Dosso region of Niger to estimate the national health sector financial costs of a scaled-up programmatic approach for az…

  • Predictors of home- vs . facility-based delivery among women living in rural Niger

    Open AccessBrittany Peterson, Ahmed M Arzika et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2026

    Background: Niger has one of the highest maternal mortality rates, and facility delivery can help prevent these deaths. While distance to health facilities predicts home delivery in other sub-Saharan African settings, few studies have examined this relationship in Niger. Methods: This cross-sectional survey, an ancillary study to the AVENIR trial, included women aged 12-59 years old with a child participating in a sub-trial of AVENIR. Trained wor…

  • Seasonality of underweight among infants 1–11 months old in Niger

    Open AccessBrittany Peterson, Ahmed M Arzika et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    INTRODUCTION: Malnutrition is a risk factor for child mortality, with around 45% of deaths in children under 5 globally linked to malnutrition. Seasonality of malnutrition has important implications for the timing of child health programme activities, but evidence is mixed on the nature of such patterns. Moreover, the bulk of the existing evidence is focused on wasting and stunting in children 6-59 months, despite increasing evidence that younger…

  • Comparison of door-to-door and fixed-point delivery of azithromycin distribution for child survival in Niger

    Open AccessAhmed M Arzika, Ramatou Maliki et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Recent evidence indicates mass azithromycin distribution reduces under-5 mortality. This intervention is being considered for child survival programs in high mortality sub-Saharan African settings. The delivery approach used in prior studies required a full-time census and distribution team, which is not feasible for most programs. To determine the optimal programmatic approach to delivery, this study aimed to compare treatment coverage, costs, a…
