BACKGROUND:Over the past two decades, international health policies focusing on the fight against the human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS), tuberculosis (TB), malaria, and those diseases that address maternal and child health problems, among others, have skewed disease control priorities in China and other Asian countries. Although these are important health problems, an epidemic of chronic, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in China has accounted for a much greater burden of disease due to the ongoing rapid socioeconomic and demographic transition.DISCUSSI

In the human gastric mucosa, an inflammatory response stimulated by H. pylori infection can lead to gastric cancer and peptic ulcer disease. Expression of the i1 active variant of Vacuolating Cytotoxin A (VacA) by the colonising bacterial strain has been identified as an independent risk factor for disease. VacA skews the adaptive immune response towards a regulatory phenotype to promote persistent H. pylori colonisation. In H. pylori-infected individuals, regulatory T cells (Tregs), which suppress inflammation through mechanisms including interleukin-10 (IL-10) production, are thought to play

Background Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common illness in patients admitted to hospital, accounting for nearly 10% of acute medical admissions.

In recent years in the UK, there have been significant developments in both preventative and treatment strategies for this illness. To understand the impact of these changes and direct future management strategies, it is important that the epidemiology of this disease is fully understood.

Nevertheless, take-up rates among HCWs have rarely exceeded 50%, even during the pandemic.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) causes acute and chronic liver diseases in humans. Its two envelope proteins, E1 and E2, are heavily glycosylated. They interact with host cell receptors and provide a target for host immune recognition. The host virus interactions determine the pathogenesis and outcome of HCV infection. L-ficolin is a soluble pattern recognition molecule of importance in innate immune defence against microorganisms. It activates the lectin complement pathway upon binding to carbohydrate recognition patterns on microorganisms. It was hypothesised that L-ficolin could interact with HCV g

Background: Globally, the number of adolescents living with perinatally-acquired HIV continues to rise including in Malawi. To date, this group has received relatively less attention in the field of HIV care; yet they are increasingly surviving into adulthood. There is a growing need for the development of appropriate care and support services for this group; however their sexual and reproductive health (SRH) needs remain poorly addressed. Research Aim: This study aimed to explore perinatally-infected young women’s experiences of growing up with HIV in order to understand their SRH outcomes wi

Background: The global policy focus of today’s HIV efforts and strategies is to reverse the spread of HIV/AIDS and provide care, treatment and support. A key component of this strategy is to increase individual HIV status awareness through expansion of HIV testing and counselling (HTC). However, the numbers tested still remain low and evidence suggests that there are significant missed opportunities for HIV testing in clinical settings. One key strategy to expand HTC in clinical settings has been to implement a policy of ‘provider initiated counselling and testing’ (PITC) in which all patients

Background Papular pruritic eruption (PPE) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is common HIV-infected populations who live in tropical and subtropical regions. It is characterized by chronic and intensely itchy papules that are usually more highly concentrated on the extremities, adversely impacting on quality of life. Its aetiology has been postulated to be an altered and exaggerated immunological response to insect bites or stings. It has been reported to diminish in severity or resolve with antiretroviral therapy (ART). Its presence after at least six months of ART has been prop

Background (Kenya) Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is in the midst of experiencing an unprecedented increase in non-communicable diseases (NCD), specifically diabetes and hypertension. This shift has required public sector health systems, which have historically focused on managing acute diseases, to redesign their services to appropriately serve chronic disease needs. Issue Addressed In order to provide a description of our efforts to bring up comprehensive services for NCDs in rural Kenya within this thesis, I have specifically selected publications which target different aspects of the healthcare
