  • Optimising TB investments in Belarus, Moldova, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan

    Open AccessAnna L Bowring, Rowan Martin‐Hughes et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    High rates of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) are a barrier to achieving End TB-strategy targets in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. This analysis collates results from five country-level modelling studies to identify priorities to reduce TB burden. Allocative efficiency studies were conducted in 2023 in Belarus, Kyrgyz Republic, Moldova, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan using the Optima TB model to determine the optimised distribution of funds to maxi…

  • Evaluation of the use of modelling in resource allocation decisions for HIV and TB

    Open AccessAnna L Bowring, Debra ten Brink et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2024

    INTRODUCTION: Globally, resources for health spending, including HIV and tuberculosis (TB), are constrained, and a substantial gap exists between spending and estimated needs. Optima is an allocative efficiency modelling tool that has been used since 2010 in over 50 settings to generate evidence for country-level HIV and TB resource allocation decisions. This evaluation assessed the utilisation of modelling to inform financing priorities from the…

    Open AccessWin Lei Yee, Anna L Bowring et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Hepatitis C (HCV) infection elimination in low- and middle-income countries requires decentralised HCV services to increase testing and linkage to care. The CT2 Study investigated patients’ views of access to and acceptance of two community-based HCV care models in Myanmar using a mixed-methods approach. Point-of-care HCV testing and general practitioner-initiated HCV treatment were provided at two community clinics in Yangon, Myanmar–the Burnet …

  • Predictors of early childhood HIV testing among children of sex workers living with HIV in Cameroon

    Open AccessAmrita Rao, Sheree Schwartz et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Vertical transmission of HIV remains a challenge in Cameroon, and HIV testing among children of FSW living with HIV was very low. ANC attendance and promotion of the mother's health were associated with increased child HIV testing. For women at high risk of HIV and for whom engagement in the health system is low, strategies to promote and ensure ANC attendance are essential for their health and the health of their children

  • Use and Acceptability of HIV Self-Testing Among First-Time Testers at Risk for HIV in Senegal

    Open AccessCarrie Lyons, Karleen Coly et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2019

    HIV Self-Testing (HIVST) aims to increase HIV testing coverage and can facilitate reaching the UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets. In Senegal, key populations bear a disproportionate burden of HIV and report limited uptake of HIV testing given pervasive stigma and criminalization. In these contexts, HIVST may represent a complementary approach to reach populations reporting barriers to engagement with existing and routine HIV testing services. In this study…

  • Comparing short versions of the Audit in a community-based survey of young people

    Open AccessAnna L Bowring, Maëlenn Gouillou et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    Numerous abbreviated variations of the AUDIT may be a suitable alternative to the AUDIT-10 for classifying high-level alcohol problems in a community-based population of young Australians. Four-item AUDIT variations scored more consistently high across all evaluated statistics compared to three-item combinations. Novel AUDIT versions may be more effective than many established shortened versions as an alternative screening tool to the AUDIT-10 to…
