Abstract:
Skin cancer is a non-communicable disease that has been underexplored in Africa, including Southern Africa. Exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is an important, potentially modifiable risk factor for skin cancer. The countries which comprise Southern Africa are Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa, and Swaziland. They differ in population size and composition and experience different levels of solar UVR. Here, the epidemiology and prevalence of skin cancer in Southern African countries are outlined. Information is provided on skin cancer prevention campaigns in these countries, a

Abstract:
This paper traces the development of policies dealing with HIV/AIDS in Botswana from their beginning in the late 1980s to the current programme to provide population-wide anti-retroviral therapy (ARV). Using a variety of source material, including long-term ethnographic research, it seeks to account for the failure of Western-inspired approaches in dealing with the pandemic. It does this by looking at the cultural and institutional features that have created resistance to the message and inhibited effective implementation. The negative response to the first educational campaign stressing condo

AbstractAn obesity paradox has been proposed in many conditions including HIV. Studies conducted to investigate obesity and its effect on HIV disease progression have been inconclusive and are lacking for African settings. This study investigated the relationship between overweight/obesity (BMI≥25 kg/m2) and HIV disease progression in HIV+ asymptomatic adults not on antiretroviral treatment (ART) in Botswana over 18 months. A cohort study in asymptomatic, ART-naïve, HIV+ adults included 217 participants, 139 with BMI of 18·0–24·9 kg/m2 and seventy-eight participants with BMI≥25 kg/m2. The prim

Abstract:
Abstract Highly active antiretroviral therapy has revolutionized the battle against human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS). From its current global rollout, HIV/AIDS morbidity and mortality has been greatly reduced, yet there exists substantial interest in the development of new therapies to further mitigate the HIV/AIDS health burden and to inhibit any fallout from the development of antiretroviral drug resistance. One potential intervention is the human pegivirus (HPgV). HPgV is not known to cause disease, and most remarkably it is shown to delay the prog

This study endeavoured to explore and describe the experiences of social workers in their intervention with HIV and AIDS clients within the Department of Clinical Services of the Ministry of Health in Botswana. The researcher undertook a qualitative research study, using an exploratory, descriptive and contextual design to explore these experiences as perceived by the social workers. The method of data collection included semi-structured face-to-face interviews, as this was deemed most appropriate to the nature of the study.

Abstract:
This chapter highlights the current state of HIV/AIDS care that fits Lewis Thomas’s 1971 definition of a “halfway technology.” It explains halfway technology as an intermediate stage between “nontechnology” and as a supportive medical care that does little to affect the course of disease, while “high” or “transformative technology” depends on advances in basic sciences. It also clarifies that transformative technology included immunization, chemotherapy, and antibiotics, while halfway technologies included dialysis, organ transplants, and mechanical ventilation. The chapter focuses on AIDS, which is as much a concern in the twenty-first century as it was forty years ago. It elaborates how the AIDS epidemic is ravaging African countries, such as South Africa and Nigeria; spreading in parts of Asia, such as Thailand and the Philippines; in Eastern Europe in countries like Russia and Ukraine; and in Caribbean and Central American countries.

Abstract:
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has reduced by about 30% in developed countries the incidence of some cardiovascular complications observed in the pre-ART period (dilated cardiomyopathy, pericardial effusion, and cardiac involvement by AIDS-associated malignancies). However, the incidence of some cardiovascular complications (endocarditis and pulmonary hypertension) was not significantly changed after the introduction of ART. In developing countries, where the availability of ART is scanty and the pathogenetic impact of nutritional factors is significant, an increase was observed of about 35% in the prevalence of cardiomyopathy and pericardial effusion, with a related high mortality rate for congestive heart failure. The increased incidence of ART-associated lipodystrophy in developed countries (range 18–83%) has changed the landscape of cardiovascular complications in HIV disease, with an apparently increased incidence of coronary artery disease in patients receiving protease inhibitor-based ART because of a process of accelerated atherosclerosis. This new clinical landscape led to a greater awareness by cardiologists in taking decisions regarding the use of antiretrovirals for a careful stratification of the cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract:
Despite the advances of medicine, many illnesses continue to evade cure. Chronic, progressive, incurable illness is a major cause of disability, distress, suffering, and, ultimately, death. This is true for many causes of cancer, AIDS, and other disorders of vital organs. Such progressive, chronic diseases are most common in late adulthood and old age, but they occur at all ages. Disease-modifying treatments and the relief of suffering through symptom management, care planning, and family support are central to care, and these four domains are core goals of palliative care. This chapter offers an overview of how epidemiological studies may be used to clarify the population/s of people who may benefit from palliative care, to assist the planning for how services may meet the needs of people towards the end of life. Symptoms associated with a series of common, progressive, chronic illnesses will be discussed, thereby further facilitating planning for individual patients and for services.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the various definitions applied to pain including chronic, nociceptive, neuropathic, and breakthrough. It gives a broad overview of the epidemiology of pain including its prevalence of greater than 50% in those patients with advanced disease and its under-treatment. The second part of the chapter explains how best to characterize the pain complaint. It acknowledges the importance of a thorough history, including pain characteristics such as severity and associated features. Several pain measurement scales, which can be used both in clinical practice and research, are presented. Clinical examination and imaging are also discussed as aids to diagnosis and management of pain. It concludes with how to assess pain in the context of a palliative plan of care, stressing the need to consider the many challenges that patients face with advancing disease and how the management of pain is affected by other symptoms patients may have.
