Unlabelled: Quantification of Viral load and resistance tests of HIV-1 to ARVs from dried blood spots samples in Guinean patients undergoing antiretroviral treatment.

Problem: As in several countries of the South, the virological monitoring of patients undergoing antiretroviral treatment (ARVT) in Guinea is low or non-existent in some locations. The aim of this study was to assess the technical and logistical feasibility of the use of (dried blood spots) DBSs in viral load (VL) and genotyping tests.

Malaria Prevalence among Young Infants in Different Transmission Settings, Africa.

The prevalence and consequences of malaria among infants are not well characterized and may be underestimated. A better understanding of the risk for malaria in early infancy is critical for drug development and informed decision making. In a cross-sectional survey in Guinea, The Gambia, and Benin, countries with different malaria transmission intensities, the overall prevalence of malaria among infants <6 months of age was 11.

Antiretroviral treatment outcome in HIV-1-infected patients routinely followed up in capital cities and remote areas of Senegal, Mali and Guinea-Conakry.

Introduction: Access to antiretroviral treatment (ART) becomes more and more effective in resource-limited settings (RLS). However, this global effort would be even more profitable if the access to laboratory services especially in decentralized settings was strengthened. We report the virological outcome and HIV-1 drug resistance in three West African countries using dried blood spots (DBS) samples.
