Abstract 68 Background: Cancer burden is increasing in Malawi, particularly for HIV-associated malignancies. Methods: With support from the National Cancer Institute, the Malawi Cancer Consortium (MCC) was initiated in September 2014. Partners include the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, Malawi Ministry of Health, University of Malawi College of Medicine, and Lighthouse Trust. Spanning Malawi’s two major cities, Lilongwe and Blantyre, MCC includes three support cores (administration, analysis, mentoring) and three multi-institution research projects: (1) a national HIV-cancer match

Abstract:

With wider access to antiretroviral therapy, people living with HIV are reconsidering their reproductive decisions: remarrying and having children. The purpose of the paper is to explore sources of information for reproductive decision used by couples living with HIV in patrilineal and matrilineal districts of Malawi. Data were collected from forty couples from July to December 2010. Our results illuminate five specific issues: some of the informants (1) remarry after divorce/death of a spouse, (2) establish new marriage relationship with spouses living with HIV, and (3) have children hence th

Abstract:

Introduction Western-constructed neuropsychological tests have been used in low- and middle-income countries to assess the impact of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) and other chronic illnesses. We explore using such instruments cross-culturally in a sub-Saharan African setting. Methods IMPAACT P1104S was a 2-year observational study performed at six clinical sites (South Africa—three sites, Malawi, Uganda, and Zimbabwe) to assess and compare neuropsychological outcomes in three cohorts of children between the ages of 5 and 11 years: HIV-infected (HIV)

Abstract:

HIV/AIDS is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the southern African country of Malawi. At the largest referral health facility in Blantyre, the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital, the majority of patients hospitalized in medical wards and up to a third of those in the maternity unit are infected with HIV. Many patients in the surgical wards also have HIV/AIDS. Health professionals in Blantyre, however, often choose not to write down the diagnosis of HIV or AIDS; rather, they prefer to use ‘SGOT’, ‘ELISA’ and ‘spot test’ to represent the HIV test, while ‘immunosuppression’, ‘↓ CD4 di

Abstract Sickle cell nephropathy (SCN) is a prevalent complication among adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) and has been observed in younger populations, suggesting potential early renal involvement in pediatric patients. Initial hyperfiltration and albuminuria followed by frank proteinuria, leading to declining GFR and eventual end stage renal disease is assumed to be the typical progression of SCN; however, few clinical biomarkers exist to identify early-stage renal disease. We describe the renal profile in 119 children with SCD at Kamuzu Central Hospital in Lilongwe, Malawi and propose a

SummaryA growing body of research suggests that orphanhood and fostering might be (independently) associated with educational disadvantage in sub-Saharan Africa. However, literature on the impacts of orphanhood and fostering on school enrolment, attendance and progress produces equivocal, and often conflicting, results. This paper reports on quantitative and qualitative data from sixteen field-sites in Ghana and Malawi, highlighting the importance of historical and social context in shaping schooling outcomes for fostered and orphaned children.

<p>Although the under-five mortality rate in Malawi has been declining since 1960, it still remains one of the highest in the world. In order to appropriately target interventions to achieve substantial reductions in deaths among children under the age of five years in Malawi, there is an ongoing need for better knowledge of the proportion of cause-specific under-five mortality in the country. The aim of this study was to estimate the direct contribution of HIV/AIDS to the observed level of under-five mortality in Malawi during the period 2000 to 2004.</p>

Abstract:

Development aid in most of the developing countries can sometimes compromise the principles of public service broadcasting (PSB). This may be true when reflected against the tension between donor financed programmes in Malawi and the mandate of Television Malawi (TVM). Although the donor intentions are noble, the strings attached to the funding are sometimes retrogressive to the role of PSBs. A case in point is how donors dictate terms on the HIV/Aids communication strategies at TVM. Producers receive money from donors with strings attached on how the money should be used and accounted for. If

Abstract:

If we made a map of the world showing locales with prevailing good public health as mountains and areas with poor health as valleys, the resulting global topography would look rough indeed. The unequal distribution of health and well-being across the world is matched by inequities of health within individual countries, even inside regions and provinces. Whatever the index, from nutrition to life expectancy, from infectious disease to infant mortality, the geography of health displays regional variations that add a crucial criterion to the composite power of place. If it is obvious that the medical world is not flat, the question is whether the landscape of human health is flattening out. Certainly health is a matter of natural environment, cultural tradition, genetic predisposition, and other factors, but power has a lot to do with it as well. In general, the poorest and weakest on the planet are also the sickest. The fact that, in the twenty-first century, 300 million people suffer from malaria and more than one million (mostly children) die every year has as much to do with figure 1.1 as it does with tropical environments and adapting vectors. The rich and medically capable countries of the core never sustained a coordinated campaign to defeat (or at least contain) malaria, a disease of the periphery of much lower priority than maladies of the mid-latitudes. Medical research in the United States and elsewhere did produce treatments for victims of the deadly HIV/AIDS pandemic that has taken more than 25 million lives over the past three decades, most of them in Subsaharan Africa, but those costly remedies are reaching far too few sufferers outside the global core. The obvious link between persistent poverty and endemic disease, so evident from virtually any medical-geographic map of the global periphery, was one of the key factors that spurred all 191 members of the United Nations in 2002 to sign the UN Millennium Declaration, among whose eight Development Goals are the reduction of child mortality, the eradication of extreme poverty and associated hunger, and the defeat of major diseases, including malaria and HIV/AIDS.

Abstract:

Africa’s current 1 billion or so residents are healthier than they have ever been thanks to medical science, special attention in several key countries to chronic disease remediation, and the efforts of several American philanthropic enterprises. Life expectancies are up and morbidity is mostly down, allowing Africans to work more productively, enjoy more leisure, and exert middle class pressures on their respective national governments. Daily life has become a little less brutish in a Hobbesian manner than it once was. There is more space and time now for the cultivation of progress socially, economically, and politically. But children still die in great number from pneumonia, tuberculosis is rife, HIV/AIDS persists, and malaria has not yet been eradicated. So Africans are still at risk.
