Background: Seroprevalence studies provide information on the true extent of infection and capture demographic and geographic differences, indicating the level of immunity against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We sought to provide local evidence of SARS-CoV-2 exposure in s...

Introdução: As doenças crónicas não transmissíveis (DNTs) são responsáveis por quase três quartos de todas as
mortes no mundo. A prevalência de DNTs e seus factores de risco metabólicos e comportamentais estão a aumentar
rapidamente nas áreas urbanas africanas. Identificar os factores de ...
Men who have sex with Men (MSM) are known to contribute to increased HIV prevalence as an integral part of key populations with high vulnerability to HIV/AIDS due to their sexual behaviours. Mozambique conducted two rounds of bio-behavioral surveys (BBS) in this population with the main objective of esti...

As Doenças Não Transmissíveis (DNT) continuam a ocupar um lugar importante na carga de morbilidade e mortalidade a nível global, sobretudo nos países de baixa e média renda.
Em Moçambique, foi realizado pela primeira vez em 2005 um inquérito para avaliar a prevalência e factores de risco para ...
OBJETIVO: No mundo, cerca de 16 milhões de mulheres vivem com HIV, muitas delas em idade reprodutiva. Esses níveis de infecção e as taxas de transmissão vertical ainda trazem grandes preocupações, devido à pouca intervenção terapêutica precoce em muitos países africanos. Em Moçambique, país...

Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can be prevented by vaccination. Exposure to blood or body fluids poses a high risk of transmission of HBV in health care workers (HCWs). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of markers of exposure, susceptibility, and protection to HBV infection in H...

The extent of population exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was uncertain in many African countries during the onset of the pandemic.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study and randomly selected and surveyed general population and occupational groups from 6 J...
People living with undiagnosed HIV are big contributors to the transmission of the virus. Although measures
have been made to scale up HIV prevention and voluntary counselling and testing in sub-Saharan Africa, testing coverage remains low in many sub-Saharan African countries, including Mozambique and K...
Mozambique has one of the highest burdens of HIV in the world, where the prevalence is estimated at 13.2% among adults aged 15-49 years. Men who pay for sex (MPS) are considered a bridging population for HIV infection. However, the characteristics of MPS in Mozambique are poorly understood. The objective...
Introdução: A crescente carga global de Doenças Não Transmissíveis (DNTs) exige sistemas de vigilância que permitam acompanhar as tendências e avaliar o impacto de intervenções. O objectivo destes estudos foi testar modelos de vigilância hospitalar e comunitária de factores de risco e de DNTs....
