Crack-cocaine use practices, harms and respiratory problems
The use of stimulants, such as crack-cocaine, is a global public health concern. Crack-cocaine use is increasing in the UK, but available data is focused on those who inject or also use opioids. To address this gap, characteristics of people using crack-cocaine in England, including respiratory problems among those who smoke, and variation in these by gender are described. Adults self-reporting crack-cocaine use in the past 28 days, recruited by …
Uncertainty in tuberculosis clinical decision-making
Tuberculosis is a major infectious disease worldwide, but currently available diagnostics have suboptimal accuracy, particularly in patients unable to expectorate, and are often unavailable at the point-of-care in resource-limited settings. Test/treatment decision are, therefore, often made on clinical grounds. We hypothesized that contextual factors beyond disease probability may influence clinical decisions about when to test and when to treat …
Measuring income for catastrophic cost estimates
There is increasing global policy interest in estimating catastrophic costs incurred by households because of ill health, and growing need for information on disease-specific household cost data. There are several methodological approaches used to estimate income and no current consensus on the best method for estimating income in the context of a survey at the health facility. We compared six different approaches to estimate catastrophic cost am…
Impact of Integrated Services on HIV Testing
The impact of integrated reproductive health and HIV services on HIV testing and counseling (HTC) uptake was assessed among 882 Kenyan family planning clients using a nonrandomized cohort design within six intervention and six “comparison” facilities. The effect of integration on HTC goals (two tests over two years) was assessed using conditional logistic regression to test four “integration” exposures: a training and reorganization intervention;…
