Moçambique enfrenta, actualmente, uma epidemia generalizada de HIV, onde foram estimadas cerca de de 2,2 milhões de pessoas vivendo com HIV (PVHIV), em 2018 [1]. De acordo com as estimativas de modelagem do Programa Conjunto das Nações Unidas para HIV/SIDA (ONUSIDA) de 2019, aproximadamente 56% das P...
Background: Determination of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) exposure status in infants and young children is required to guarantee timely diagnosis and access to appropriate care. HIV prevalence among Mozambican women aged 15-49 years is 15%, and vertical transmission rate is still high. The stud...

Registou-se um avanço significativo em Moçambique na prevenção da transmissão
vertical de mãe para filho (PTV), desde o lançamento do primeiro Plano de Eliminação
da Transmissão Vertical em 2012: a testagem e tratamento do HIV em mulheres grávidas
e lactantes estão totalmente integrados nos s...

Apesar da prevenção de transmissão vertical (PTV) ser eficaz para prevenir
o HIV da mãe para o filho, aumentando o número de mulheres grávidas HIV+ em tratamento

mulher e c...
Background: Early infant diagnosis (EID) of HIV-exposed and initiation of HIV-positive infants on anti-retroviral therapy (ART) requires a well-coordinated cascade of care. Loss-to-follow-up (LTFU) can occur at multiple steps and effective EID is impeded by human resource constraints, difficulty with pat...

Background: In low-income countries, data on prevalence and effects of group B Streptococcus (GBS) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) colonization among pregnant women are scarce, but necessary to formulate prevention strategies. We assessed prevalence of GBS and E. coli colonization and factors associated a...

Background: In resource-limited rural settings, scale-up of services to eliminate mother-to-child transmission of HIV has not been as effective as in better resourced urban settings. In sub-Saharan Africa, women often require male partner approval to access and remain engaged in HIV care. Our study will...

Background: Few data on HIV resistance in pregnancy are available from Mozambique, one of the countries with the highest HIV toll worldwide. Understanding the patterns of HIV drug resistance in pregnant women might help in tailoring optimal regimens for prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV (...
