This Data Article describes a novel dataset from the “Re‐Examining Traditional Method Use” ( TEAM‐UP ) project, which systematically collected data on the measurement of and motivations for use of non‐modern (traditional and folkloric) contraceptive methods and/or modern methods, in four sub‐Saharan African countries: the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria. TEAM‐UP comprises four datasets (two quantitative and two qualitative…
Methodological Innovations for Evidencing and Estimating Modern and Traditional Contraceptive Prevalence and Use Dynamics in Sub‐Saharan Africa
Contraceptive prevalence estimates are indicators of the performance of family planning programs. Yet, available evidence suggests that national surveys may be underestimating the prevalence of traditional methods. The apparent underestimation of traditional methods stems from current approaches for collecting, analyzing, and reporting contraceptive data. We examined the effect of survey methodological innovations on the estimation of traditional…
Unravelling factors influencing demand for modern contraception and evaluating coverage progress since 2015 in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Nigeria
The study unveils demographic, geographic, and socioeconomic mDFPS disparities, signalling progress and stagnation across administrative areas. The findings offer policymakers and governments insights into targeting interventions for enhanced mDFPS coverage. Context-specific strategies can address local needs, aiding SDG attainment
Reliability of reporting of HIV status and antiretroviral therapy usage during verbal autopsies
OBJECTIVE: Verbal autopsies (VAs) are interviews with a relative or friend of the deceased; VAs are a technique used in surveillance sites in many countries with incomplete death certification. The goal of this study was to assess the accuracy and validity of data on HIV status and antiretroviral therapy (ART) usage reported in VAs and their influence on physician attribution of cause of death. DESIGN: This was a prospective cohort study. METHODS…
