Abstract Background To accelerate progress toward the UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Nigeria country office (CDC Nigeria) initiated an Antiretroviral Treatment (ART) Surge in 2019 to identify link 340,000 people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) ART. Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) threatened interrupt ART following detection of first case February 2020. overcome this disruption, CDC designed implemented adapted strategies during February–September Methods...
Expanded access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) leads improved HIV/AIDS treatment outcomes in Nigeria, however, increasing rates of loss follow-up among those on ART is threatening optimal standard achievement. Therefore, this retrospective cross-sectional study aimed at identifying correlates and predictors patients commencing a large HIV program Nigeria.Records all from 432 US CDC Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) supported facilities across 10 States FCT who started 2004...
People living with HIV (PLHIV) constantly need to address social issues such as the cost of accessing care, stigma, and lack support which impacts on their level adherence clinic visits or antiretroviral treatment leading adverse health outcomes. This study examined barriers in care by clients who returned after transient loss follow-up. was a cross-sectional survey PLHIV from 99 US CDC PEPFAR-supported clinics located 10 Nigeria's 36 states Federal Capital Territory, were momentarily lost...
HIV-1 integrase inhibitors are recommended as first-line therapy by WHO, though efficacy and resistance data for non-B subtypes limited. Two recent trials have identified the L74I mutation to be associated with inhibitor treatment failure in subtypes. We sought define prevalence of mutations, including L74I, West Africa.
Serodiscordance exists when the known HIV result of one member a couple pair is positive while that his/her partner negative. In sub-Saharan Africa, in stable long-term partnerships (married or cohabiting), serodiscordance growing source HIV-transmissions. This study aimed to ascertain across Nigeria, prevalence, status disclosure and explore associations between suspected determinants among PMTCT enrolled pregnant women their partners. A retrospective Quality Care performance evaluation was...
Ineffective linkage to care (LTC) is a known challenge for community HIV testing. To overcome this challenge, robust strategy was adopted by the 2018 Nigeria HIV/AIDS Indicator and Impact Survey (NAIIS). The NAIIS further adapted improve Nigeria's programmatic efforts achieve 1st 90 as part of Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) Surge initiative, which also included targeted In paper we provide an overview LTC describe impact on both initiatives.The collaborated with community-based organizations...
Abstract Background A negative status following confirmatory Early Infant Diagnosis (EID) is the desired pediatric outcome of prevention Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) programs. EID impacts epidemic control by confirming non-infected HIV-exposed infants (HEIs) and prompting timely initiation ART in HIV-infected babies which improves treatment outcomes. Objectives We explored factors associated with outcomes among HEI North-Central Nigeria. Method This a cross-sectional study using data...
Abstract Background A substantial number of persons living with HIV (PLWH) in Nigeria do not experience durable viral suppression on first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART). Understanding risk factors for treatment failure informs patient monitoring practices and distribution limited resources second-line regimens. We determined predictors immunologic virologic failures a large ART delivery program Abuja, Nigeria. Methods retrospective cohort study was conducted at the University Abuja...
Introduction While antiretroviral therapy (ART) coverage for pregnant women has undergone steady scale-up, Nigeria’s final mother- to-child transmission of HIV (MTCT) rate remains unacceptably high at 10%. This study aimed to determine outcomes (MTCT rates) and their correlates among HIV-exposed infants (HEI) in nine states the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria. Methods retrospective, cross-sectional was conducted 96 primary, secondary tertiary health facilities supported by Institute Human...
Nigerian campuses comprises of diverse culture, ethnicity and religion. Controlling these is a very big deal. Cameras are installed to help security personnel in carrying out enormous tasks. However, the closed circuit television [CCTV] cameras only used for evidence sourcing rather than prevention campus vices. With use appropriate technique, vices can be prevented thus securing campus. In this research, an Artificial Intelligent (AI) video surveillance system was developed. The captures,...
sub-Saharan African countries contribute substantially to the global HIV disease burden. Despite this burden, and promises that prevention could deliver, implementation uptake of programmes are still low. The study used decision support system model explore potential impacts on burden (incidence) service delivery.an operational research technique known as discrete event simulation was capture an individual patient´s pathways through care process from diagnosis treatment monitoring. regular...
This study examined the frequency and distribution of musculoskeletal problems among Kaduna Refining Petrochemicals Company Limited (KRPC) engineers, desk workers, security. Data for were gathered using a modified online version Nordic questionnaire. The prevalence patterns disorder (MSD) assessed data from survey given to KRPC employees was analyzed SPSS. According survey, there 62.4% MSD cases overall over 12 months. highest lower back (%), followed by upper (%) wrist (%). Years experience...
The usefulness of Collaborative filtering recommender system is affected by its ability to capture users' preference changes on the recommended items during recommendation process. This makes it easy for satisfy interest over time providing good and quality recommendations. Existing studied fails solicit user inputs also unable incorporate with which lead poor In this work, an Enhanced Movie Recommender that recommends movies users presented improve solicits create a profiles. It then...
Background: Life-changing developments enabled people living with human immunodeficiency virus/acquired syndrome (HIV/AIDS) to live a relatively normal life like the general population. However, there is not any user-friendly platform that enables key decision-makers assess scenarios for improvement. Therefore, objective of this study demonstrate potentials web-based simulation system effective and efficient management HIV services.Methods: SmartHIV Manager interactive planning services....
Introduction: With an estimated 1.8 million People Living with HIV (PLHIV), Nigeria’s response is still heavily donor dependent. However, anticipated decline in funding for HIV/AIDS program as the country takes ownership of program, understanding financing options PLHIV important. One such affordability out-of-pocket payments (OOP) anti-retroviral drugs (ARV) by PLHIV. We assessed OOP ARVs Kano State, North-Western Nigeria. Methods: Four Hundred and sixty-nine receiving donor-supported-free...
Introduction: There were an estimated 37,000 new child HIV infections in Nigeria 2016, the highest globally. For Nigeria, 6 week and final mother-to-child transmission of (MTCT) rates are at 13.1% 23.0%, respectively. The UNAIDS has targeted MTCT <2% <5% among non-breastfeeding breastfeeding infants, Data on 18-month outcomes HIV-Exposed Infants (HEI) is scarce. We evaluated for predictors status HEI 18 months life 10 Nigerian states. Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study...
