The status of ART in the public health sector in Africa: a multi-country survey.

Research Question: What is the current availability of treatment with assisted reproductive technology (ART) in the public sector in Africa, and what are the facilitators and barriers towards its provision?

Design: Cross-sectional quantitative and qualitative data were collected in two phases from February 2020 to October 2021.

Quantitative data were collected via a structured questionnaire (Phase 1); public centre-specific quantitative and qualitative data were then collected via a semi-structured questionnaire followed by a virtual interview (Phase 2).

Correlation between hysterosalpingography diagnosis and final hysterolaparoscopy with dye-test diagnosis in women with utero-tubal infertility: A cross-sectional study of the implication for which test should be the first-line investigation.

Objective: To assess the accuracy of hysterosalpingography in diagnosis of uterine and/or tubal factor infertility, using hysterolaparoscopy with dye test as the gold standard with an implication for which test should be the first-line investigation.
