Abstract:
Background Fever with jaundice is a common symptom of some infectious diseases. In public health surveillance within the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), yellow fever is the only recognized cause of fever with jaundice. However, only 5% of the surveillance cases are positive for yellow fever and thus indicate the involvement of other pathogens. Leptospira spp. are the causative agents of leptospirosis, a widespread bacterial zoonosis, a known cause of fever with jaundice. This study aimed to determine the seropositivity of anti-Leptospira antibodies among suspected yellow fever cases an

The two LSES subdivisions had higher prevalences of Plasmodium infection and higher rates of stunting, abdominal pain and low packed cell volume (PCV) than the HSES subdivision. The prevalence and intensity of Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura was not associated with socio-economic status.

Abstract:
There are negative personal, psychological, and professional implications of working with individuals who have suffered from trauma, to include secondary trauma. A significant research gap exists in regard to how secondary trauma bears on psychosocial assistants (PAs). Bukavu, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), has a shortage of trained and licensed mental health providers, and as a result, mental health services have been shifted to PAs. Using Bandura's social cognitive theory and Orem's theory of self-care, this qualitative phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of sec

Abstract:
Background: Task-shifting of care and first-line treatment for people living with HIV (PLHIV) from doctors to nurses is feasible, effective and acceptable in sub-Saharan Africa. Since first-line resistance to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is increasing, comprehensive HIV care should be informed by viral load (VL) monitoring to ensure timely detection of treatment failure and switch to second-line ART if appropriate. Patients identified with a first elevated VL (FEVL) enter a cycle with extra counselling sessions, VL re-testing, and potential regimen switch, putting additional strain on scarce h

Introduction: Le paludisme est une maladie parasitaire curable. Il sévit sous une forme endémique depuis des temps immémoriaux. Malgré le recul de l’endémie observé au cours de la dernière décennie à la suite des efforts menés à un niveau international, l’Afrique essentiellement tropicale continue encore à supporter une importante charge de morbidité et de mortalité liée au paludisme. L’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé (OMS) estime que sur les 216 millions malades et 655 000 décès survenus dans le monde en 2010, respectivement 80,6% et 91,6% l’étaient en Afrique tropicale.
