  • Improving estimates of the burden of severe wasting

    Open AccessSheila Isanaka, Christopher T Andersen et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2021

    INTRODUCTION: Estimates of incident cases of severe wasting among young children are not available for most settings but are needed for optimal planning of treatment programmes and burden estimation. To improve programme planning, global guidance recommends a single 'incidence correction factor' of 1.6 be applied to available prevalence estimates to account for incident cases. This study aimed to update estimates of the incidence correction facto…

  • Measuring coverage of infant and young child feeding counselling interventions

    Open AccessJowel Choufani, Sunny S Kim et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2020

    Most countries implement nutrition counselling interventions as part of programmes to support breastfeeding and complementary feeding. However, data to track coverage of counselling interventions are rarely available. As a result, little is known about the coverage of counselling on infant and young child feeding (IYCF). Survey-based data collection systems generally collect data on IYCF practices but do not collect data on coverage of interventi…

  • National, regional, and worldwide estimates of low birthweight in 2015, with trends from 2000

    Open AccessHannah Blencowe, Julia Krasevec et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Global Health2019

    BACKGROUND: Low birthweight (LBW) of less than 2500 g is an important marker of maternal and fetal health, predicting mortality, stunting, and adult-onset chronic conditions. Global nutrition targets set at the World Health Assembly in 2012 include an ambitious 30% reduction in LBW prevalence between 2012 and 2025. Estimates to track progress towards this target are lacking; with this analysis, we aim to assist in setting a baseline against which…

  • Prevalence thresholds for wasting, overweight and stunting in children under 5 years

    Open AccessMercedes De Onís, Elaine Borghi et al.ARTICLEPublic Health Nutrition2019

    Objective Prevalence ranges to classify levels of wasting and stunting have been used since the 1990s for global monitoring of malnutrition. Recent developments prompted a re-examination of existing ranges and development of new ones for childhood overweight. The present paper reports from the WHO–UNICEF Technical Expert Advisory Group on Nutrition Monitoring. Design Thresholds were developed in relation to sd of the normative WHO Child Growth St…

  • Monitoring HIV Treatment and the Health Sector Cascade

    Open AccessDaniel Low‐Beer, Michel Beusenberg et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2017

    Although not originally part of the MDGs, HIV treatment has been at the center of global HIV reporting since 2003, marked by achievement of the target of 15 million people receiving treatment before 2015 and 18.2 million (16.1-19.0 million) by mid 2016. Monitoring of treatment has been strengthened with harmonized partner reporting and accountability with regular, annual reports. Beyond treatment numbers, increasingly measures of treatment adhere…

  • Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV and Paediatric HIV Care and Treatment Monitoring

    Open AccessPriscilla Idele, Chika Hayashi et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2017

    Progress towards achievement of global targets for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) and paediatric HIV care and treatment is an integral part of global and national HIV and AIDS responses. This paper documents the development of the global and national monitoring and reporting systems for PMTCT and paediatric HIV care and treatment programmes, achievements and remaining challenges. A review of the development of the m…

  • Use of service data to inform pediatric HIV-free survival following prevention of mother-to-child transmission programs in rural Malawi

    Open AccessJustin Mandala, Tiwonge Moyo et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2012

    When mothers and newborns received nevirapine, the estimated 24-month probability of HIV-free survival among children was high at 82% (CI: 54% to 99%). However this conclusion should be interpreted cautiously 1) due to the wide confidence interval; and 2) because the confidence interval range includes 55%, which is the natural HIV-free survival rate in the absence of a PMTCT intervention. This analysis highlighted the need of quality data and wel…

  • Global Progress in PMTCT and Paediatric HIV Care and Treatment in Low-and Middle-Income Countries in 2004-2005

    Chewe Luo, Priscilla Akwara et al.ARTICLEReproductive Health Matters2007Citada por: 4Referências: 6

    A growing number of countries are moving to scale up interventions for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV in maternal and child health services. Similarly, many are working to improve access to paediatric HIV treatment. This paper reviews national programme data for 2004–2005 from low-and middle-income countries to track progress in these programmes. The attainment of the UNGASS target of reducing HIV infections by 50% by 2…
