Background: Decentralized human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a model adopted to improve access antiretroviral therapy (ART) within communities and mitigate the burden of HIV treatment care on health facility. In Ethiopia, these services help clients fully benefit from ART as they are able their catchment areas. However, still travel out areas commence ART. Thus, this study aimed assess magnitude out-of-catchment area initiation its associated factors among people living with (PLWHIV) in...

The test-and-treat approach recommends early ART initiation (same day). Early start has double the benefits as treatment and prevention. However, there is limited information regarding same-day in Ethiopia. Hence, this study aimed to assess magnitude factors of among people living with HIV (PLHIV) on at Nekemte specialized hospital, Western Ethiopia.A cross-sectional was conducted 483 PLHIV from January 10 February 15, 2021.

Therefore we aimed to assess magnitude and associated factors among neonates admitted intensive care units Wollega University Referral Hospital. Accordingly, facility based cross-sectional study was conducted on 289 by reviewing medical records unit. The collected data were entered Epi version 3.1 Stata 14 used for analysis. Variables with P-value < 0.25 at 95% confidence interval binary logistic regression analysis...
Background: The function of antiretroviral therapy is to enhance immunity and prevent the occurrence opportunistic infection. But showed a failure manage infection after time. Nowadays, an accepted criterion confirm Antiretroviral (ART) treatment virologic failure. Regarding this failure, there are no well-addressed findings, especially in study area. Therefore research, magnitude factors that contribute for virological ART have been identified. Methods: Facilitybased cross-sectional was...
Abstract Background The conduct of research is critical to advancing human health. However, there are issues ethical concern specific the design and in conflict settings. Conflict-affected countries often lack strong platform support technical guidance monitoring ethics, which may lead use divergent standards some poorly elaborated loosely enforced. Despite growing about research, a dearth information compliance areas. Valid ethically informed decision-making premier pact with participants...
HIV continuum of care demands early ART initiation for all HIV-infected individuals. Early reduces onward transmission facilitating rapid viral suppression. Despite this, delayed use is a challenge among newly diagnosed HIV-positive individuals, and there limited evidence on time to this group in Ethiopia.
