  • Olive tree at the intersection of environment, public health, and One Health

    Open AccessAngeliki I Katsafadou, Sofia I Prodromou et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    The olive tree and its derivatives—olives, olive oil, and their by-products—are foundational to the Mediterranean diet and are increasingly recognized for their roles in nutrition, medicine, and ecological sustainability. Indeed, one of the most prominent examples of sustainable production and consumption paradigm in a changing climate lies in the olive sector, approached within One Health framework, i.e., the interconnectedness of human health w…

  • Community-based referral for tuberculosis preventive therapy is effective for treatment completion

    Open AccessSheela V Shenoi, Tassos C Kyriakides et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Expansion of tuberculous preventive therapy (TPT) is essential to curb TB incidence and mortality among people with HIV (PWH), yet implementation has been slow. Innovative strategies to operationalize TPT are urgently needed. Here we present an evaluation of community-based identification and referral of PWH on completion of a six-month course of isoniazid in a highly prevalent region in rural South Africa. Using a community-based TB/HIV intensiv…

  • High prevalence of non-adherence to antiretroviral therapy among undisclosed HIV-infected children in Ghana

    Justin S Nichols, Tassos C Kyriakides et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2019

    Adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) remains one of the greatest obstacles in pediatric HIV care. We sought to determine the prevalence of adherence to ART among undisclosed HIV-infected children and adolescents in Ghana. We analyzed baseline data from HIV-infected children and adolescents aged 7-18 years old enrolled in the SANKOFA Pediatric HIV disclosure intervention study in Ghana. Antiretroviral medication adherence was measured using c…

  • Prevalence and correlates of depression among caregivers of children living with HIV in Ghana

    Angela Ofori-Atta, Nancy R Reynolds et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2019

    Prior studies show an association between caregiver depression and child health outcomes. There has been little examination of depression among caregivers of HIV-infected children in sub-Saharan countries where pediatric HIV is concentrated. Using baseline data collected in the pediatric HIV disclosure intervention trial, Sankofa, we examined the prevalence and factors associated with depression among caregivers (N = 446) of children infected wit…

  • HIV knowledge, stigma, and illness beliefs among pediatric caregivers in Ghana who have not disclosed their child's HIV status

    Open AccessElijah Paintsil, Lorna Renner et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2015

    The majority of HIV-infected children in sub-Saharan Africa have not been informed of their HIV status. Caregivers are reluctant to disclose HIV status to their children because of concern about the child's ability to understand, parental sense of guilt, and fear of social rejection and isolation. We hypothesized that the low prevalence of pediatric HIV disclosure in Ghana is due to lack of accurate HIV information and high HIV stigma among careg…

  • Sankofa pediatric HIV disclosure intervention cyber data management

    Open AccessAnn Christine Catlin, Sumudinie Fernando et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2015

    Prevalence of pediatric HIV disclosure is low in resource-limited settings. Innovative, culturally sensitive, and patient-centered disclosure approaches are needed. Conducting such studies in resource-limited settings is not trivial considering the challenges of capturing, cleaning, and storing clinical research data. To overcome some of these challenges, the Sankofa pediatric disclosure intervention adopted an interactive cyber infrastructure fo…
