    High prevalence of HIV drug resistance among newly diagnosed infants aged <18 months: Results from a nationwide surveillance in Nigeria

    The study found a high prevalence of pretreatment HIV drug resistance, predominantly nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-based regimen (NNRTI) associated, among HIV-infected children (less than 18 months) in Nigeria. The findings support using a non-NNRTI regimen in children less than 3 years of age as a preferred first-line antiretroviral treatment regimen, as recommended by the World Health Organization. Child-friendly, fixed-dose, combination co-formulated drugs need to be widely available in the country.

    Electronic health, telemedicine and new paradigms for training and care

    This qualitative literature review assesses eHealth and mHealth training methods for HIV care that were published between 2016 and 2017. Notable findings were that the merging of electronic medical records systems improved telemedicine through mobile networks and instant messaging services to low-resource areas, and that few trials established efficient strategies to train HIV care providers or extenders on HIV care outcomes. The authors recommend more rigorous testing of electronic training interventions to demonstrate the impact on services for people living with HIV.

    The usefulness of a handwashing proxy in large household surveys

    Because tracking handwashing practices is challenging, this paper tested a proxy — the presence of functional handwashing stations with soap and water — and its association with reports of child diarrheal disease in five sub-Saharan African countries. The authors found limited to moderate evidence supporting the potential usefulness of this proxy, suggesting that further exploration in other African and non-African contexts is warranted.
