Article Synopsis
- * Results show that 72.1% of HIV-negative participants had intestinal parasites, while only 42.6% of PLHIV were affected, indicating a higher prevalence in the uninfected group.
- * The research highlights the need for awareness and treatment strategies focused on HIV-positive individuals, as they often experience more severe infections and complications.
Article Synopsis
- Blood-borne pathogens like HIV, hepatitis B (HBV), and hepatitis C (HCV) are significant health issues in sub-Saharan Africa, prompting a study on their prevalence among blood donors in Koula-Moutou, Gabon from 2012 to 2017.
- In a screening of 5,706 blood donors, 18.5% tested positive for at least one infectious marker, with seroprevalence rates of 3.1% for HIV, 5.9% for HBV, 6.2% for HCV, and 3.3% for syphilis; notably, multiplex infections were present in 5.6% of donors.
- The study
Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to assess how socio-clinical factors influence adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) among people living with HIV/AIDS in Koula-Moutou, Gabon.
- Two methods were used to evaluate adherence: patient declarations and pharmacy visit compliance, revealing higher patient-reported adherence rates compared to actual pharmacy data.
- The study found a link between better reported adherence and lower education levels and calls for further research on ART adherence factors in this vulnerable population.
Unlabelled: Objective : This study determined the prevalence of asymptomatic Plasmodium (P.) falciparum infection and anemia in adults living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) and compared malaria prevalence between 858 HIV-infected (PLHIV) and 272 uninfected individuals in Gabon where such information are lacking. Factors influencing malaria and anemia were also investigated.
