No cost-effectiveness information of preventive strategies for mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has existed for policy decision making. This study aimed to compare the cost-effectiveness of alternative strategies to prevent MTCT of HBV in Vietnam. Cost-utility analysis using a hybrid decision-tree and Markov model were performed from healthcare system and societal perspectives.

Article Synopsis
- * Diagnosis relies on cerebrospinal fluid analysis and neuroimaging techniques like MRI and SPECT, and there are recent advances in testing methods and imaging to monitor treatment effectiveness.

Department of Global Health, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: Ethiopia aims to eliminate mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV by 2030. In 2020, Dolutegravir-based antiretroviral treatment (ART) regimen optimization was done for the Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT). However, data tracking progress, particularly post-rollout of the Dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimen, and the real-world effectiveness of the new regimen are unavailable.
