H3Africa is developing capacity for health-related genomics research in Africa
BackgroundSub-Saharan Africa has the highest incidence, prevalence, and fatality from stroke globally. Yet, only little information about context-specific risk factors for prioritising interventions to reduce burden in sub-Saharan is available. We aimed identify characterise effect of top modifiable Africa.MethodsThe Stroke Investigative Research Educational Network (SIREN) study a multicentre, case-control done at 15 sites Nigeria Ghana. Cases were adults (aged ≥18 years) with confirmed by...
Diagnosed hypertension stands out as a prominent global cause of mortality, prompting recent efforts to understand not only treatment options but also determinants across diverse age and occupational groups. However, the literature on impact environmental factors diagnosed is limited, especially in rural areas with restricted access health infrastructure. Geographical research has often focused spatial variations different units, potentially masking individual contributions. Data patients...
As the second leading cause of death and adult-onset disability, stroke is a major public health concern particularly pertinent in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where nearly 80% all global mortalities occur, burden projected to increase coming decades. However, traditional emerging risk factors for SSA have not been well characterized, thus limiting efforts at curbing its devastating toll. The Stroke Investigative Research Education Network (SIREN) project aimed comprehensively evaluating key...
Qualitative methods are becoming widely used and increasingly accepted in biomedical research involving teams formed by experts from developing developed practice environments. Resources rare offering guidance on how to surmount challenges of team integration resolution complicated logistical issues a global setting. In this article we present critical reflection lessons learned necessary steps taken achieve methodological coherence international synergy. A series 10 pretest interviews were...
Background and Purpose— The Questionnaire for Verifying Stroke-Free Status (QVSFS), a method verifying stroke-free status in participants of clinical, epidemiological, genetic studies, has not been validated low-income settings where populations have limited knowledge stroke symptoms. We aimed to validate QVSFS 3 languages, Yoruba, Hausa Akan, ascertainment control subjects enrolled an on-going epidemiological study West Africa. Methods— Data were collected using cross-sectional design 384...
Abstract Background African ancestry populations have the highest burden of stroke worldwide, yet genetic basis in these is obscure. The Stroke Investigative Research and Educational Network (SIREN) a multicenter study involving 16 sites West Africa. We conducted first-ever genome-wide association (GWAS) indigenous Africans. Methods Cases were consecutively recruited consenting adults (aged > 18 years) with neuroimaging-confirmed ischemic stroke. Stroke-free controls ascertained using...
<h3>Objective</h3> To characterize risk factors for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) occurrence and severity among West Africans. <h3>Methods</h3> The Stroke Investigative Research Educational Network (SIREN) study is a multicenter case-control involving 15 sites in Ghana Nigeria. Patients were adults ≥18 years old with CT-confirmed sICH age-, sex-, ethnicity-matched stroke-free community controls. Standard instruments used to assess vascular, lifestyle, psychosocial factors....
Objective Worldwide, the highest frequencies of APOL1-associated kidney variants are found in indigenous West Africans among whom small vessel disease (SVD) ischemic stroke is most common phenotype. The objective this study was to investigate association and effect sizes 23 selected SNPs 14 genes relevance, including APOL1 G1 variants, with occurrence SVD African participants Stroke Investigative Research Education Network (SIREN) Study. Materials Methods Cases were consecutively recruited...
We conducted the first-of-its kind randomized stroke trial in Africa to test whether a THRIVES (Tailored Hospital-based Risk reduction Impede Vascular Events after Stroke) intervention improved blood pressure (BP) control among patients with stroke.Intervention comprised patient global risk factor report card, personalized phone text-messaging, and educational video. Four hundred recruited from 4 distinct medical facilities Nigeria, aged ≥18 years stroke-onset within one-year, were group....
Introduction: The African Rigorous Innovative Stroke Epidemiological Surveillance (ARISES) study is focused on developing an integrated mHealth community-based interactive Information and System. This the first paper to qualitatively investigate contrast community beliefs, attitudes, practices related stroke prevention, risk factors care from alternative/complementary medicine providers/healers, orthodox/modern medicine/health providers, members leaders in Nigeria. Methods: Six focus groups...

The relationship between diagnosed high blood pressure (HBP) and proximity to health facilities noise sources is poorly understood. We investigated the associations number of persons with HBP at different distance corridors noise-generating (churches, mosques, bus stops, road networks), monitoring outlets (healthcare pharmaceutical shops) in Ibadan, Nigeria. In addition, we likelihood being using from sources, outlets, socio-demographic clinical status participants. 13,531 adults African...
Purpose Globally, black women experience poorer breast cancer outcomes suggesting the need for effective health promotion approaches to increase perceived susceptibility and improve screening practices. Although narrative communication by patients or survivors is increasingly considered an approach better outcomes, there limited information on its use in Nigeria. This study assessed perception, willingness generalized self-efficacy of at University College Hospital, Ibadan, implement...
