The implementation of tuberculosis preventive therapy in HIV care clinics in Africa, Asia and Latin America
INTRODUCTION: Towards the 'End TB Strategy' targets, the WHO recommends the provision of tuberculosis (TB) preventive therapy (TPT) for high-risk groups including people living with HIV (PLWH). 3 years after the release of the updated 2020 WHO guidelines, we investigated the implementation of TPT services at HIV clinics in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), focusing on TB screening, populations eligible for TPT and available TPT regi…
The long-term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on tuberculosis care and infection control measures in anti-retroviral therapy (ART) clinics in low- and middle-income countries
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic challenged healthcare systems, particularly in settings with high infectious disease burden. We examined the postpandemic long-term impacts of COVID-19 on tuberculosis (TB) services at anti-retroviral therapy (ART) clinics in lower-income countries. METHODS: Using standardised online questionnaires, we conducted a cross-sectional site survey among ART clinics providing TB services in Africa and Asia from July to …
Authorship inequalities in global health research
BACKGROUND: The International epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS conducts research in several regions, including in Southern Africa. We assessed authorship inequalities for the Southern African region, which is led by South African and Swiss investigators. METHODS: We analysed authorships of publications from 2007 to 2020 by gender, country income group, time and citation impact. We used 2020 World Bank categories to define income groups and…
Integrating services for HIV and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death among PLHIV and multidrug-resistant-TB (MDR-TB) is associated with high mortality. We examined the management for adult PLHIV coinfected with MDR-TB at ART clinics in lower income countries. Between 2019 and 2020, we conducted a cross-sectional survey at 29 ART clinics in high TB burden countries within the global IeDEA network. We used structured questionnaires to collect clinic-level data on the T…
