Article Synopsis
  • Introduction of long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) for HIV prevention showed effectiveness, and this study examines its safety and pharmacokinetics in pregnant women participating in the HPTN 084 trial during a blinded period.
  • In the study, pregnant participants were divided into two groups receiving either CAB-LA or TDF/FTC, with careful monitoring of pregnancy outcomes and maternal adverse events, finding that there was no significant difference in adverse event rates or poor pregnancy outcomes between the two groups.
  • The analysis revealed a total of 57 confirmed pregnancies over 3845 person-years, with 81% resulting in live births, and the study concluded that CAB-LA did not result in significantly different safety or outcomes

Background: Minimally invasive surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC) offer superior outcomes compared to open surgery. This study aimed to review the robotic and laparoscopic procedures for CRC performed in Africa, and compare the mean surgery duration, blood loss, hospital stay, rate of conversion, and prevalence of morbidity and mortality. This is the first study to compare the outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic surgeries for CRC in Africa.

Article Synopsis
  • Robotic surgery has significant benefits for African healthcare, including shorter hospital stays and quicker returns to work, but its uptake is hindered by economic, infrastructural, systemic, and training-related barriers.
  • Current use is mainly in Egypt and South Africa, with challenges like limited healthcare budgets, high initial costs, inadequate power and internet access, and a lack of surgeon training facilities in other countries.
  • Recommendations for overcoming these barriers include public-private partnerships, remote training for surgeons, investment in infrastructure, and exploring AI-integrated systems to improve surgical precision and provide better training tools.

Background And Objectives: Prospective data on presentation and outcomes of colorectal cancer (CRC) in Nigeria are limited; however, emergency presentation with advanced disease is thought common.

Methods: Consecutive CRC patients presenting at six sites over 6 years were included. Risk factors for emergency presentation were evaluated using logistic regression methods.
