Abstract:
Background Blood borne viral infections such as Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV), and Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV) cause substantial mortality and morbidity worldwide. Viral hepatitis during pregnancy is closely related to high risks of maternal and neonatal complications. In Ethiopia, only a little information is available on co-infection of HCV or HIV among Hepatitis B surface Antigen (HBsAg) positive pregnant mothers. Thus, the study aimed to determine HIV or HCV co-infection and associated risk factors among HBsAg positive delivering mothers. Method A health facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted in five governmental hospitals in Addis Ababa among 265 HBsAg positive delivering mothers in the year 2019 and 2020. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Structured questionnaires and laboratory test results were used to collect the data. SPSS version 20 software was used to enter and analyze the data. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of HIV or HCV co-infections. Results Of the HBsAg positive delivering mothers, 9 (3.4%) and 3 (1.1%) were co-infected with HIV and HCV, respectively. None of them were with triplex infection. All of the socio-demographic characteristics were not significantly associated with both HIV and HCV co-infections. Mothers who had a history of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) were 9.3 times more likely to have HBV-HIV co-infection (AOR = 9.3; 95% CI: 1.84–47.1). Mothers who had multiple sexual partners were 5.96 times more likely to have HIV co-infection (AOR = 5.96; 95% CI: 1.074–33.104). The odds of having HBV-HIV co-infection were 5.5 times higher among mothers who had a history of sharing shavers, razors, and earrings (AOR = 5.5;95% CI: 1.014–29.69). HCV co-infection was not significantly associated with any of the potential risk factors. Conclusion This dual infection rate of HBsAg positive delivering mother with HIV or HCV indicates that a substantial number of infants born in Ethiopia are at high risk of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HBV, HIV, and HCV. Thus, all pregnant mothers need to be screened for HBV, HCV, and HIV during antenatal care, and also need implementation of prevention mechanisms of MTCT of these viral infections.

Abstract:
In Rwanda the prevalence of mother-to-child HIV transmission is 1.5%, the prevalence was found to be higher in rural area. The purpose of this study was to determine the Prevalence and Risk Factors of HIV Infection among Children born from HIV Positive Women in Musanze District. The study findings help to decrease the rate of HIV infection among children born from mother HIV positive to zero. This study was conducted in Musanze District, Northern Province in Rwanda. The study targeted 420 HIV positive mothers who delivery in different health facilities located in Musanze district form January 2019 to December 2020 and their children. SPSS version 22 was used for analysis. Of 420 children born from HIV positive mothers 91.7% were aged between 18-24 months, 55.2% were female. The majority of HIV positive mothers 80.2% who participated in the study were married. The prevalence of HIV infection among children born from HIV positive women was 2.9%. Children whose mother had poor adherence to ART were 1.5 times more likely to get HIV at birth compared to those whose mother had good adherence (AOR = 1.5; 95% CI: (1.12-2.21)). Children born from mothers in WHO stage II were more likely to get HIV from their mother (AOR = 1.24; 95% CI: (1.32-2.207)). Children born from HIV positive mother with one ANC visit were 2.5 times more likely to get HIV from their mothers (AOR = 1.56; 95% CI: (2.31-5.17)).

Abstract:
Option B+ approach for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) has demonstrated the potential to eliminate pediatric HIV infections. Its success depends on early infant diagnosis (EID) of HIV among the exposed infants within the first 6 weeks, and a subsequent confirmatory HIV test within 18 months. However, most mothers enrolling in option B+ in Tanzania do not come for such confirmatory tests. We examined factors associated with the turning-up of mother-baby pairs on the PMTCT program for a confirmatory HIV testing 18 months post-delivery in Tanzania. This study utilized longitudinal data collected between 2015 and 2017, from 751 mother-baby pairs enrolled in the PMTCT-option B+ approach in 79 health facilities from the 12 regions of Tanzania-mainland. Only 44.2% of 751 mother-baby records observed received the HIV confirmatory test by the 18th month. Mothers aged 25 years or above (adults’ mothers) were 1.44 more likely to turn up for confirmatory HIV testing than young mothers; mothers with partners tested for HIV were 1.74 more likely to have confirmatory HIV testing compared with partners not tested for HIV. Newly diagnosed HIV-positive mothers were 28% less likely to bring their babies for a confirmatory HIV-testing compared to known HIV-positive mothers. Mothers with treatment supporters were 1.58 more likely to receive confirmatory HIV-testing compared to mothers without one. Mother-baby pairs who collected DBS-PCR-1 were 3.61 more likely to have confirmatory HIV-testing than those who didn’t collect DBS-PCR-1. In conclusion, the confirmatory HIV testing within 18 months among mother-baby pairs enrolled in the Option B+ approach is still low in Tanzania. This is associated with low maternal age, having a male partner not tested for HIV, lack of experience with HIV services, lack of treatment supporters, and failure to take the DBS-PCR-1 HIV test within the first two months post-delivery.

Abstract:
Background: The prevalence of HIV infection in infants born to HIV-infected mothers is a pressing global health issue. The World Health Organization estimates that in 2018, 570,000 children under age 15 were newly infected with HIV, and the majority of those infections were attributed to mother to child transmission of the virus. HIV infection in infants born to HIV-infected mothers can have devastating and long-lasting effects on an affected child’s health as well as their psychological, social, and economic wellbeing. Methodology: This paper reviewed the current scientific literature examining the prevalence of HIV infection on infants from HIV-infected mothers. We focused on factors associated with a reduction or increase in the prevalence of mother-to-child transmission of HIV, such as the use of antiretroviral drugs, interventions during labor and delivery, and breastfeeding methods. Additionally, we providedan overview of the psychological, social, and economic implications of HIV infection on infants from HIV-infected mothers. Finally, we discussed strategies on prevention, management, and treatment of mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Conclusion: The findings of this paper underscore the importance of improving local health systems and prioritizing resources to search for effective interventions to prevent the prevalence of HIV infection on infants from HIV-infected mothers. This research is critical to reducing the global burden of mother-to-child transmission of HIV and creating health equality for all.

Abstract:
Despite preventive strategies of mother-to-child HIV transmission, there are evidences of low compliance to prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission hence, the transmission of HIV from mother to child has not been successfully curtailed. This study was therefore designed to investigate the social, cultural and economic factors that influence the compliance to prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV among mothers attending Antenatal clinics in University College Hospital, Ibadan. The study adopted the descriptive design of the survey type. The total number of HIV positive pregnant mothers attending antenatal clinics in University College Hospital, Ibadan for the past nine months were 78. Total enumeration was used. The instrument for data collection was a self-structured questionnaire which was divided into six sections (sections A-F). The data collected were subjected to descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings showed that there were significant relationship between the level of knowledge and compliance to the PMTCT of HIV (r = .518, <em>p</em> = .000); and economic factors and compliance to the PMTCT of HIV (r = .315, <em>p</em> = .009) while there were no significant relationship between social factors and compliance to the PMTCT of HIV (r = .180, <em>p</em> &gt;0.05); and cultural factors and compliance to the PMTCT of HIV (r = .056, <em>p</em>&gt;0.05). The findings revealed that knowledge (&szlig; = 0.480; t= 5.559; <em>p</em>&lt;0.05) and Economic Factors (&szlig; = 0.303; t= 2.593; p&lt;0.05) significantly contributed to on the compliance to the PMTCT of HIV among mothers attending antenatal clinics. It was recommended that an economically sustainable, culturally sensitive and primary prevention approach of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV is promoted, especially among mothers of reproductive age. <strong>Keywords</strong>: Factors, Compliance, Prevention, Mother-to-Child, Transmission, HIV, Mothers,

Abstract:
Abstract Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) involve similar transmission routes, namely, blood, sexual contact, and mother-baby contact. Therefore, HIV infection is usually accompanied by HBV and HCV infections. This observation poses a great challenge to the prevention and treatment of HIV/human acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) accompanied by HBV and HCV infection. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has been extensively applied. Hence, liverrelated diseases have become the main causes of complication and death in HIV-infected individuals. This paper summarizes the current epidemiology, mutual influence, and treatment of HIV/AIDS accompanied by HBV or HCV infection.

Abstract:
Objective: to investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms in IFNγ gene variant rs2430561 and in NKG2D gene variant rs2617160 as potential risk factors for mother-to-child viral transmission among HIV/HCV-coinfected women.Materials and methods: 65 mother-child pairs were examined, divided into 4 groups depending on the child's infection (HIV/ HCV infected, HIV or HCV infected, not infected). Methods: multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR), PCR for determining the viral load of HIV and HCV, flow cytometry for immunological studies, statistical analysis.Results: the single nucleotide polymorphism in IFNγ gene variant rs2430561 had no prognostic value when determined in the mothers. When recording the TT and AT genotypes of a single nucleotide polymorphism in this gene in a child, it was combined with the probability of the child's infection with HIV/HCV, HIV or HCV, depending on the magnitude of the viral load of HIV and HCV in the mother's blood in different trimesters of pregnancy. The presence of the AA and AT genotypes of the NKG2D gene variant rs2617160 in the mothers had a prognostic value as contributing tothe child infection with HIV/HCV or HIV alone. It was noted that the mechanisms of perinatal viral transmission included a certain level of decline in the absolute number of CD4+ lymphocytes in the woman blood in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy.Conclusions: the presence of AA and AT genotypes of the NKG2D gene variant rs2617160 in woman co-infected with HIV/HCV makes it possible to predict the risk of child infection not only during pregnancy, but also at the planning stage.

Abstract:
Background: Mother-to-child transmission of the HIV remains the main source of HIV infection in children. Targeting pregnant women attending antenatal care follow-up provides a unique opportunity for implementing prevention of mother-to-child transmission programs against HIV infection in newborn babies. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of HIV infection and associated factors among infants born to HIV-positive mothers in the prevention of mother-to-child transmission clinic in the Gondar city health institutions, Northwest Ethiopia, 2021. Methods: Documents were reviewed at the facility. Infants who had been exposed to HIV were enrolled in the study from 1 May–20 June 2021 prevention of mother-to-child transmission service in Gondar health institutions. To collect data from the charts, a structured data extraction tool was developed. The data were entered and analyzed with SPSS version 25 software. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression models were fitted to identify factors associated with HIV infection. The crude and adjusted odds ratios with a 95% confidence interval were calculated to determine the significance level. Result: The prevalence of HIV infection among infants born to HIV-positive mothers at the prevention of mother-to-child transmission level was found to be 8.1% (95% confidence interval = 7.3–12.9). Mixed infant feeding practice (adjusted odds ratio = 5.15, 95% confidence interval = 1.82–14.56), mothers’ lack of education (adjusted odds ratio = 3.43, 95% confidence interval = 2.26–5.0), absence of antenatal care follow-up (adjusted odds ratio = 1.82, 95% confidence interval = 1.17–4.02), and home delivery (adjusted odds ratio = 2.24, 95% confidence interval = 2.10–7.45) were statistically significantly associated with infants’ HIV infection. Conclusion: The prevalence of HIV infection in babies born to HIV-positive mothers was found to be high. Significant factors include mixed infant feeding practice, mothers’ lack of education, antenatal care follow-up, and home delivery. We also proposed that skilled delivery care and community education could reduce HIV transmission from mother to child.

Abstract:
Background: Under SISU RAKSHA program (a joint initiative by SAATHII, not-for-profit organization and Bapuji child health institute, Davangere) the HIV positive pregnant mothers are enrolled, counseled and motivated during pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding to adhere to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) to reduce mother to child transmission of HIV. Objective is to study the outcome of EBF on infants born to HIV positive mothers on ART under SISU RAKSHA program, with Outcome variables: HIV seroconversion, Growth status, Health status. Methods: 86 infant born to HIV positive mothers who completed 18 months follow up were included in the study. A prestuctured proforma was used to collect information about ART adherence, infant feeding practice, HIV seroconversion, growth and health status. Results: The HIV seroconversion of children on EBF among ART adherent mothers, 94.2 % (66/70) were non-reactive at 18th month follow up and 4.28% (3/70) were reactive. 92.8% (65/70) children growth were normal at 18th month follow up and 5.6% (4/70) were under weight and had recurrent infections. All these observations were statistically significant according to Fisher’s exact test. Conclusions: The rate of mother to child transmission of HIV and rate of other infections among children born to HIV positive mothers is reduced and growth is normal if the mother is adherent to EBF &amp; ART. HIV positive mothers are regularly counseled and motivated to do so under the program. Therefore the SISU RAKSHA program is very effective program for prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV.

Abstract:
Mother To Child Transmission (MTCT) of HIV is a major challenge in Sub-Saharan Africa due to a variety of socio-economic and political factors. In South Africa, for example, there was element of denialism by government on the fact that treatment could assist in reducing the likelihood of transmitting the virus to the baby. It was only in 2001 after the Treatment Action Campaign took the South African government to court that they were ordered to develop a programme to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother to child. The South African government established a PMTCT programme that aligned itself with the United Nations’ Millennium Goal of ensuring that all HIV positive pregnant women receive treatment in an effort to eliminate babies born with HIV. This study, therefore, explored the experiences of HIV positive mothers who enrolled on PMTCT programme at Tonga hospital. The researcher explored the participants’ understanding of the programme prior to enrolment, the extent to which they experienced the programme, the nature of support and services they received while on the programme as well as challenges they faced. All this was done with the intention and commitment to strengthening the intervention strategies for the HIV pregnant women, thereby ensuring that they receive top quality services from a group of multi skilled professionals. To achieve this, the study applied a collective case study within a qualitative approach. The population for the study was HIV positive mothers who enrolled on the PMTCT programme between June 2011 and July 2012. The sample consisted of 12 HIV positive mothers who took part in the PMTCT programme at Tonga hospital. For data collection purposes, the researcher applied semi-structured interview. Informed by the findings, the study concluded that there is lack of knowledge and understanding of the programme in the community. It further established that the clinic is situated under the ward where HIV positive patients are treated and that psycho social services are not offered to the HIV positive pregnant women. It also concluded that the women’s husbands or partners are not encouraged to be part of the programme. Consistent with the above, the study recommended that the PMTCT programme should be provided in a holistic and well integrated manner, where all health care disciplines contribute as required to make the participants’ experiences on the programme more comfortable both socially and emotionally. There should be a way to get the male counterparts of the participants more involved in the programme so as to afford them the opportunity to get first-hand information about pregnancy and what is expected of them as partners. Each health worker’s role should be clearly defined and a referral system be developed so that all services are easily accessible.<br>Dissertation (MSW)--University of Pretoria, 2013.<br>am2014<br>Social Work and Criminology<br>unrestricted

Abstract:
A prospective study at the University Teaching Hospital of 306 women with their infants, who were enrolled at delivery, was conducted in 1997. The primary aim was to define the magnitude and effects of maternal human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) infection on obstetric problems and infant outcome. Women were mainly over 19 years (87.3%), literate (73.7%) and married (91.4%), with no formal income (75.7%). 48.2% and 46.7% had antenatal or post-partum anaemia (PPA) and of these 1.8% and 6.2% were severely anaemic. Low post-partum (PP) serum retinol «0.7f.lmoI/L) and CD4 counts «400 cells/mm3 ) occurred in 12.8% and 16.2% of the women. The commonest obstetric problems were previous child death (32.4%), malaria treatment during pregnancy (32.6%), previous abortion (16.4%) and hypertension (13.7%). Post-partum, 30.1% of the women were HIV infected, 14.9% rapid plasma reagin (RPR) positive and 4.5% hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive. Factors independently associated with HIV infection were: alcohol intake during pregnancy (RR 5.67); ante-partum haemorrhage (RR 5.85); PP HBsAg positivity (RR 27.45); low PP CD4 cell count (RR 10.63) and PPA (RR 3.99). Primigravidae had a lower risk ofHIV infection (RR OJ). For PPA independent risk factors were: caesarean section (RR 9.95); HIV infection (RR 2.81) and low PP mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC) (RR 8.33); mean corpuscular volume (MCV) (RR 2.39) and serum retinol (RR 3.03). Alcohol intake during pregnancy (RR 0.22) and low PP maternal weight (RR 0.10) were associated with reduced risk ofPPA. The prevalence of low birth weight (LBW; weight <2.5kg), pre-term delivery «37 weeks gestation) and intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR; weight < lOth centile for gestational age) were 18.9%, 23.8% and 25.9%. These showed no association with maternal HIV infection although the mean birth weight was significantly lower in children born of HIV infected mothers (P=0.006). In HN non-infected women, antenatal anaemia was independently associated with increased risk pre-term delivery (RR 5.l2) and low birth weight (RR 5.08). Low PP serum retinol increased the risk of IUGR (RR 3.10). In HN infected women, lack of paternal income was associated with pre-term delivery (RR 11.7), IUGR with LBW (RR 3.59) and antibiotic treatment in pregnancy with IUGR (RR 5.85). The cumulative rate of HN mother to child transmission (MTCT) at 1 year of age was 31 %, with 10.3%, 1O.l% and 9.l% of infants DNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) positive at birth, 1 month and 4 to 12 months respectively. On multivariate analysis, PP maternal viral load (>50,OOOcopies Iml) was the only risk factor associated with early infant HN acquisition (birth and 1 month) (P = 0.005) and cumulative infections at one year (P=O.OOI). At a year of age, HIV infected children were severely undernourished (weight for age median Z-score -3.46) and stunted (height for age median Z-score -4.44). Stunting was the main form of malnutrition in uninfected infants regardless of maternal HN status. Reported morbidity in infancy was unaffected by HN status. The infant mortality rate was 136 per 1000 live births, 85 per 1000 in HN uninfected children of uninfected mothers, 272 per 1000 in infants of infected mothers and 424 per 1000 in infected infants. After correcting for confounders, maternal HN infection (HR 0.28) and primigravidae (HR 0.20) were significant risk factors for infant survival. The population attributable risk percentage of infant mortality was 41.3% for maternal HN infection and 24.9% when the infant was HN infected as well.

Abstract:
Introduction: HIV is a serious problem in Namibia, 13.1% of the adult population is HIV-positive or is a carrier of AIDS. This is one of the highest numbers in the world. HIV is passed from mother to child during pregnancy, during labour or through breast milk. 18.8 % of the pregnant mothers in Namibia who is in contact with the maternity welfare have HIV. Aim: The aim of the study was to describe nurses’ counseling to mothers to prevent mother to child transmission of HIV through breastfeeding. Method: Eight nurses working with PMTCT of HIV were interviewed in Namibia. The interviews were transcribed and a content analysis was made. 18 sub-categories and seven categories were found. Findings: It is important that nurses provide individual counseling, are supportive and motivate the mothers. Poverty is an obstacle for the mothers, stigmatization occurs and cultural differences can have influence on the mothers. It is also important that nurses are updated in counseling and PMTCT. Conclusion: Nurses should provide mothers with the correct information in a pedagogical way. Nurses need to be aware of obstacles for the mothers and their families to be able to meet their different demands. Men are not involved in PMTCT-counseling and nurses think that partner involvement would benefit PMTCT of HIV.

Abstract:
Purpose and rationale: In 2012, an estimated 9,500 infants in Ethiopia were born with HIV. Mortality for these infants is high, and preventing infection offers the best hope for reducing the childhood death rates. Effective measures exist which can reduce the likelihood of a child acquiring HIV from its mother to less than 2%, and the necessary anti-retroviral medications are free and accessible to Ethiopian women. However, Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT) efforts in the country have not kept pace with the global reduction in infant infections over the last decade, and the Ethiopian MTCT rate was still 20% in 2012. Although a large number of women are getting tested for HIV during pregnancy, only 41% of eligible women in the country complete PMTCT therapy. The purpose of this exploratory study was to elicit the perspectives of HIV+ mothers on the unique socio-contextual factors which affect them during pregnancy, both positively and negatively, including the beliefs, attitudes, cultural norms and individuals who have influence over their reproductive health decisions. Methods: The mixed-methods study was done at a community level in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. With the assistance of several large networks of people living with HIV (PLHIV), PLHIV mothers who have a child at least one year of age were recruited by mixed purposeful sampling; various socio-economic demographics were represented. In-depth interviews, focus groups and surveys were then completed in Amharic with a research assistant translating to English. Results: 98 women in total took part in the study: 23 completed interviews, 28 participated in focus groups, and 49 completed additional surveys. The greatest barriers to PMTCT completion identified were: feelings of hopelessness and carelessness, a general lack of understanding of the efficacy of ARVs, negative religious influences, stigma and poverty. The strongest facilitators to PMTCT use expressed by the women were: PLHIV peer support, faith, and gaining hope. It was recommended that PLHIV mothers be utilized in all PMTCT planning and interventions in the future. Implications: Program managers and health officials can build on these findings to modify existing PMTCT programs and to develop innovative and effective new PMTCT interventions. This will ultimately result in increased PMTCT uptake and adherence amongst HIV + pregnant women and a reduction in infant HIV transmission.

Abstract:
Magister Curationis - MCur<br>The pandemic of HIV is the most severe health challenge affecting children across the world and it is estimated that more than 90% of all HIV infections in children result from Mother to Child Transmissions (MTCT). The global target of <2% MTCT risk of HIV has still not been achieved despite the duration of the implementation of the programme and its great progress. The prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) programme is a programme developed to enable health care practitioners to provide essential care to mothers in order to prevent the transmission of the virus to their infants.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references (p. 421-474).<br>Lovelines was a didactic textual series that appeared in Fairlady, a South African women's magazine, instructing mothers on how sex should be talked about with young people to inoculate them against the risk of HIV/Aids. My reading of this media discourse, and mothers' appropriation of it, sought to examine how the primary target audience of middle classed mothers were persuaded to adopt particular communicative positions. Foucault's normative apparatus of family-sexuality-risk concerns the distribution of expertise - epidemiological science of risk in populations, developmental psychology-inscribed micro-practices of childrearing in families - and self-responsibilization of disciplinary power. This finds mothers governmentally positioned as relay points between 'public' (health, economy) and 'private' (family, childrearing, sex) apparatuses, tasked with appropriately socializing a new generation of sexually responsible citizens. This governmental rationality of neo-liberalism is read against South African conditions of mass media persuasion, HIV/Aids risk and talking about sex in families.

Abstract:
Introduction: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in pediatrics represents a significant challenge for global health, as children can acquire the virus vertically during pregnancy, childbirth or breastfeeding. Children's vulnerability to HIV is accentuated by the risks associated with the mother-child bond. This study is based on a literature review, highlighting research that addresses the challenges and treatment strategies of the disease. Objective: The main objective of this study is to examine the approach to HIV in children, exploring research that discusses therapeutic strategies, early diagnosis and multidisciplinary approaches. Methods: A literature review was conducted in the MEDLINE database, using the PubMed search platform. English descriptors were used to cover global studies in the final search, excluding results prior to the last three years. Results and Discussion: Epidemiological data, diagnostic methods, pediatric antiretroviral treatments and psychosocial aspects related to HIV in children were analyzed. The studies analyzed reveal the importance of early diagnosis, through serological and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests, and the prompt initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Furthermore, the need for multidisciplinary approaches to address ART-related disorders and the psychosocial complexities associated with childhood HIV infection was identified. Conclusion: The findings of the present study highlight the importance of early diagnosis, as well as the existence of challenges regarding the diagnosis itself and the infectious management of the disease. Mother-to-child transmission prevention programs must be expanded, and a combined effort that includes strategies to prevent maternal disease, early identification of infected women, and expansion of prophylactic and drug measures can lead to significant reductions in mother-to-child transmissions, as well as improved treatment. safe for HIV-infected babies and children.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In 2016, UNAIDS identified the Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT) as a significant challenge in the fight against HIV/AIDS in Guinea. This abstract presents the key findings of an evaluation conducted on the PMTCT component of MSF's HIV project in Guinea, implemented since the early 2000’s. The main objective of the evaluation was to assess its relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainability. METHODS A mixed quantitative and qualitative methodology was applied, including a desk review of MSF project documents, field observations, and interviews with key stakeholders. The data were analysed by triangulation and benchmarking to ensure internal validity. Quantitative indicators provided information on the number of women receiving PMTCT treatment and the rate of HIV mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) in health facilities supported by MSF, allowing the measurement of the effectiveness of the intervention. The quality of data and the lack of primary data from 2011 to 2015 was the main limitation, hindering the calculation of statistical significance (p-value) for the observed change in the rate of MTCT of HIV. RESULTS MSF's PMTCT intervention was highly relevant and aligned with the country's needs. It demonstrated effectiveness through the significant number of women receiving PMTCT treatment, the establishment of a platform for viral load testing, drug supply support, and a reduction in the HIV MTCT rate. The rate of MTCT in health facilities supported by MSF decreased from 35.9% to 12% [7 – 12] between 2010 and 2021. The challenges relating to data accuracy, monitoring activities, the follow-up of babies born from HIV-infected mothers, and the readiness of the MoH to take over the programme were identified, highlighting the need for improvement to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency. Sustainability efforts remained low as the Guinean health system lacked enough funding to take over the programme. CONCLUSIONS The evaluation affirms the positive impact of the PMTCT intervention in reducing MTCT of HIV, even if project target (5%) was not achieved. Recommendations aim to strengthen investment in PMTCT and enhance the hand-over strategy to ensure sustainability after MSF exit.

Abstract:
Preventing unintended pregnancy among HIV-positive women is an effective approach to reducing pediatric HIV infection and vital to meeting HIV-positive women’s sexual and reproductive health needs. Although contraceptive services for HIV-positive women is one of the cornerstones of a comprehensive program for prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT), a review of PMTCT programs found that implementers have not prioritized family planning (FP). While there is increasing awareness about the importance of FP and HIV integration, data about FP from PMTCT clients are lacking. The Horizons Program is conducting an operations research study testing several community-based strategies to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV in a densely settled urban slum in Nairobi, Kenya. Strategies being piloted include moving PMTCT services closer to the population via a mobile clinic and increasing psychosocial support for HIV-positive women. This research update presents key findings about FP at PMTCT sites, including the interaction between providers and clients as well as HIV-positive women’s fertility desires and demand for contraceptives, from the baseline cross-sectional survey and qualitative interviews with postpartum women.

Abstract:
Malaria, HIV and tuberculosis (TB) are significant public health concerns in Mozambique. Malaria was the fourth leading cause of death in the country in 2019, accounting for 42% of deaths among children under 5 years of age (Mugabe et al., 2021; USAID, 2018). Mozambique is among the top eight countries with the highest HIV prevalence; with the second highest mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) rate in the world (Fuente-Soro et al., 2021; Nacarapa et al., 2021). The incidence of TB is rising, with pediatric TB cases almost tripling in recent years (WHO, 2020b; Nguenha et al., 2018; Orlando et al., 2018). Mozambique has one of the highest global incidence of malaria-HIV and TB-HIV co-infection, which raises the likelihood of poor clinical outcomes (Moon et al., 2019; USAID, 2018). This rapid literature review highlights key aspects of the epidemiology of malaria, HIV and TB in Mozambique and challenges in prevention, detection and treatment; and surveys select interventions that seek to address these challenges. This is part of a series of reports looking into Epidemiology of Malaria, human immune deficiency virus (HIV) and tuberculosis (TB) across a set of African Nations.
