<h3>Importance</h3> Nigeria has the fourth-largest HIV epidemic globally, yet high levels of social stigma inhibit testing among Nigerian youths and young men who have sex with (MSM). <h3>Objective</h3> To report pilot data from iCARE (Intensive Combination Approach to Roll Back Epidemic in Adolescents), a combination intervention using media peer navigation promote linkage care high-risk (hereinafter referred as<i>young men</i>), including predominantly MSM. <h3>Design, Setting,...
HIV substantially worsens human papillomavirus (HPV) carcinogenicity and contributes to an important population excess of cervical cancer, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). We estimated HIV- age-stratified cancer burden at a country, regional global level 2020. Proportions (a) diagnosed women living with (WLHIV), (b) attributable HIV, were calculated using age-specific estimates prevalence (UNAIDS) relative risk. These proportions validated against empirical data applied incidence...
Background: Consistent with the global trend, youth HIV (YWH) in Nigeria have high rates of viral nonsuppression. Hence, novel interventions are needed. Setting: Infectious Diseases Institute, College Medicine, University Ibadan, Nigeria. Methods: In a single-arm trial, participants aged 15–24 years received 48 weeks combination intervention, comprising daily 2-way text message medication reminders plus peer navigation.

Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is prevalent in mucocutaneous surfaces, with the persistence of infections causing approximately 5% human cancers. While HPV presence at one site increases risk others and, possibly, cancer(s) other anatomical sites, this varies among individuals despite similar sexual behaviors. Identifying women high-risk cervical who are also for oral could help reduce HPV-associated This study aims to identify methylation biomarkers explaining concordant infections....
