Background The Hypertension Treatment in Nigeria (HTN) Programme established a system for hypertension diagnosis and management 60 public primary healthcare facilities the Federal Capital Territory of through implementation HEARTS, multi-level strategy bundle including team-based care led by community health extension workers (CHEWs). To improve HEARTS implementation, supportive supervision was added as an April 2020. Methods A multidisciplinary team data collection forms were developed...
Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) is a potential alternative therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but its efficacy in clinical setting and the impact of body mass index (BMI; calculated as weight kilograms divided by height meters squared) on treatment response remain unclear.
Nigeria has one of the highest burdens maternal deaths globally, and hypertensive disorders pregnancy (HDP) are leading cause morbidity mortality in country. There is a significant implementation gap utilizing evidence-based practices for management HDP Nigeria. This study evaluated facilitators barriers to implementing home blood pressure monitoring program improve HDP.From August 2022 September 2022, we conducted 15 semi-structured, key informant interviews 4 focus group discussions among...
Background: Differential exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, including phthalate diesters, may contribute persistent racial/ethnic disparities in women's reproductive health outcomes. We sought characterize sources of gestational these agents that differ according maternal race. Methods: enrolled pregnant Black (n = 198), African American, and White 197) women during the second trimester, measured eight monoester metabolites urine. assessed confounder-adjusted associations between...
Abstract Background The clinical findings among children with postnatally acquired Zika virus disease are not well characterized. We describe and compare signs symptoms for aged <18 years. Methods cases were included if they met the national surveillance case definition, had illness onset in 2016 or 2017, resided a participating state, reported to Centers Disease Control Prevention. Pediatric years; congenital perinatal infections excluded. matched adult (18‒49 years). Clinical...
To identify factors that impact parental willingness to consent research studies conducted for their children during visits pediatric emergency departments (EDs).
Background: Large-vessel vasculopathy (LVV), such as moyamoya syndrome, increases stroke risk with sickle cell disease (SCD). We hypothesized that tissue-based cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), indicators of hemodynamic metabolic stress, would differ in hemispheres vs. without LVV. Methods: Patients underwent serial brain MRI time-of-flight MRA to quantify voxel-wise CBF, OEF, infarcts. LVV was defined 75-99% stenosis a major anterior circulation artery....
<title>Abstract</title> The burden of hypertension is large and rapidly rising in Nigeria. We sought to implement evaluate a large-scale treatment control program, adapted from the Kaiser Permanente Northern California World Health Organization HEARTS models, within public primary healthcare (PHC) facilities Federal Capital Territory From January 2020 December 2023, we conducted single arm, type 2 hybrid interrupted time series trial multilevel program 60 PHCs co-primary effectiveness...
This retrospective cohort study assessed the accessibility of a genetic counselor on uptake preimplantation testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) and carrier screening in single academic Reproductive Endocrinology Infertility (REI) clinic. A total 420 patients were evaluated with 219 counseled by REI physician only 201 after addition (GC) to clinic team. Cycles initiated before hiring GC (pre-GC) from June 2018 December integration (post-GC) March 2019 August 2019. Additionally, information...
Cardiorespiratory fitness as represented by maximum oxygen uptake, VO2max, is considered the best indicator for overall cardiovascular health. Fitness technology such wrist worn devices, now allows an easy method to monitor individual's VO2max. This study sought compare estimated VO2max measurements from Polar Ignite (Polar Electro Oy, Kempele, Finland) watch Ignite) against gold standard, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in normal cardiac anatomy and Fontan pediatric patients....
