n In Sofala province (Mozambique), young people living with HIV (YPLHIV) are estimated at 7%
among people aged 15–24 years. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic threatened HIV health services, data
on the impact of COVID-19 on YPLHIV people are lacking. This study aimed at exploring the seroprevalence o...

In-hospital logistic management barriers (LMB) are considered to be important risk factors for delays
in TB diagnosis and treatment initiation (TB-dt), which perpetuates TB transmission and the development of TB
morbidity and mortality. We assessed the contribution of hospital auxiliary workers (HAWs) an...

The COVID-19 global pandemic reached South Africa (SA), Mozambique and Eswatini in March 2020.[1] Since then an exponential increase in SARS-CoV-2 infections has severely stretched SA’s healthcare system, especially in terms of in-hospital treatment of severe cases. The impact of COVID-19 in Mozambique...

Background: Although the burden of postdischarge mortality (PDM) in low-income settings appears to be significant, no clear recommendations have been proposed in relation to follow-up care after hospitalization. We aimed to determine the burden of pediatric PDM and develop predictive models to identify c...

Background: Characterization of severe malaria cases on arrival to hospital may lead to early recognition and improved management. Minimum community based-incidence rates (MCBIRs) complement hospital data, describing the malaria burden in the community. Methods: A retrospective analysis of all admitted m...
