Abstract

Medication adherence is critical to the effectiveness of benznidazole (BZ) therapy for the treatment of Chagas disease. Assessing BZ adherence using traditional plasma sampling methods presents numerous challenges in resource-limited settings. Dried blood spot (DBS) sampling of BZ can be used to overcome logistical barriers and provides a less invasive method for assessing BZ levels. A BZ DBS assay using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was developed and applied to a clinical study of infants and children being treated with BZ for Trypanosoma cruzi infection in Argentina. The assay was validated over a concentration range of 9.8-5,000 ng/mL. Inter-assay and intra-assay measures ranged from -2.9% to 2.7% and 0.5% to 8.3% for accuracy and from 3.5% to 12% and 1.6% to 13.6% for precision, respectively. The mean recovery of BZ was greater than 91%. Partitioning ratios for DBSs/plasma ranged from 0.95 to 1.02. A cohort of 10 infants and six children with T. cruzi infection being treated with BZ had median BZ concentrations of 1.2 (IQR 0.29, 2.14) µg/mL with seven of 65 (11%) samples above the BZ treatment goal of 3 μg/mL for adults. The reported DBS assay is a simple and accurate method for the quantitative measurement of BZ that can be applied to facilitate urgently needed clinical studies of BZ for the treatment of Chagas disease and assess BZ adherence in resource-limited settings.

Abstract

Objective: To determine the incidence, risk factors and outcomes of babies with neonatal jaundice in a network of referral‐level hospitals in Nigeria. Design: A cross‐sectional analysis of perinatal data collected over a 1‐year period. Setting: Fifty‐four referral‐level hospitals (48 public and 6 private) across the six geopolitical zones of Nigeria. Population: A total of 77 026 babies born at or admitted to the participating facilities (67 697 hospital live births; plus 9329 out‐born babies), with information on jaundice between 1 September 2019 and 31 August 2020. Methods: Data were extracted and analysed to calculate incidence and sociodemographic and clinical risk factors for neonatal jaundice. Main outcome measures: Incidence and risk factors of neonatal jaundice in the 54‐referral hospitals in Nigeria. Results: Of 77 026 babies born in or admitted to the participating facilities, 3228 had jaundice (41.92 per 1000 live births). Of the 67 697 hospital live births, 845 babies had jaundice (12.48 per 1000 live births). The risk factors associated with neonatal jaundice were no formal education (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.68, 95% CI 1.11–2.52) or post‐secondary education (aOR 1.17, 95% CI 0.99–1.38), previous caesarean section (aOR 1.68, 95% CI 1.40–2.03), booked antenatal care at <13 weeks or 13–26 weeks of gestation (aOR 1.58, 95% CI 1.20–2.08; aOR 1.15, 95% CI 0.93–1.42, respectively), preterm birth (aOR 1.43, 95% CI 1.14–1.78) and labour more than 18 hours (aOR 2.14, 95% CI 1.74–2.63). Conclusions: Hospital‐level and regional‐level strategies are needed to address newborn jaundice, which include a focus on management and discharge counselling on signs of jaundice.

Abstract

Objective: To describe the outcomes and quality of care for women and their babies after caesarean section (CS) in Nigerian referral‐level hospitals. Design: Secondary analysis of a nationwide cross‐sectional study. Setting: Fifty‐four referral‐level hospitals. Population: All women giving birth in the participating facilities between 1 September 2019 and 31 August 2020. Methods: Data for the women were extracted, including sociodemographic data, clinical information, mode of birth, and maternal and perinatal outcomes. A conceptual hierarchical framework was employed to explore the sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with maternal and perinatal death in women who had an emergency CS. Main Outcome Measures: Overall CS rate, outcomes for women who had CS, and factors associated with maternal and perinatal mortality. Results: The overall CS rate was 33.3% (22 838/68 640). The majority of CS deliveries were emergency cases (62.8%) and 8.1% of CS deliveries had complications after delivery, which were more common after an emergency CS. There were 179 (0.8%) maternal deaths in women who had a CS and 29.6% resulted from complications of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. The overall maternal mortality rate in women who delivered by CS was 778 per 100 000 live births, whereas the perinatal mortality at birth was 51 per 1000 live births. Factors associated with maternal mortality in women who had an emergency CS were being <20 or >35 years of age, having a lower level of education and being referred from another facility or informal setting. Conclusions: One‐third of births were delivered via CS (mostly emergency), with almost one in ten women experiencing a complication after a CS. To improve outcomes, hospitals should invest in care and remove obstacles to accessible quality CS services. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction Though interest is growing for trials comparing planned delivery mode (vaginal delivery [VD]; cesarean section [CS]) in low-risk nulliparous women, appropriate study design is unclear. Our objective was to assess feasibility of three designs (preference trial [PCT], randomized controlled trial [RCT], partially randomized patient preference trial [PRPPT]) for a trial comparing planned delivery mode in low-risk women. Methods A cross-sectional survey of low-risk, nulliparous pregnant women (N = 416) and healthcare providers (N = 168) providing prenatal care and/or labor/delivery services was conducted in Argentina (2 public, 2 private hospitals). Proportion of pregnant women and providers willing to participate in each design and reasons for not participating were determined. Results Few women ( 85%). Believing randomization unacceptable (RCT, PRPPT) and desiring choice of delivery mode (RCT) were women's reasons for not participating. For providers, commonly cited reasons for not participating included unacceptability of performing CS without medical indication, difficulty obtaining informed consent, discomfort enrolling patients (all designs), and violating women's right to choose (RCT). Conclusions for Practice Important limitations were found for each trial design evaluated. The necessity of stronger evidence regarding delivery mode in low-risk women suggests consideration of additional designs, such as a rigorously designed cohort study or an RCT within an obstetric population with equivocal CS indications., Author(s): Melissa M.

Abstract

Objective: To simulate the impact on calcium intake – effectiveness and safety – of fortifying wheat flour with 200, 400 and 500 mg of calcium per 100 g of flour. Design: Secondary analysis of cross-sectional data collected through repeated 24 h dietary recalls using the Iowa State University Intake Modelling, Assessment and Planning Program. Setting: Urban cities in the National Health and Nutrition Survey of Argentina (ENNyS 2018–2019). Participants: 21 358 participants, including children, adolescents and adults. Results: Most individuals in all age groups reported consuming wheat flour. The prevalence of low calcium intake was above 80 % in individuals older than 9 years. Simulating the fortification of 500 mg of calcium per 100 g of wheat flour showed that the prevalence of low calcium intake could be reduced by more than 40 percentage points in girls and women aged 19 to less than 51 years and boys and men aged 4 to less than 71 years, while it remained above 65 % in older ages. The percentages above the upper intake level remained below 1·5 % in all age groups. Conclusions: Calcium flour fortification could be further explored to improve calcium intake. Subnational simulations could be performed to identify groups that might not be reached by this strategy that could be explored in Argentina. This analysis could be used to advocate for a strategy to fortify wheat flour. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: To examine the prevalence of novel newborn types among 165 million live births in 23 countries from 2000 to 2021. Design: Population-based, multi-country analysis. Setting: National data systems in 23 middle- and high-income countries. Population: Liveborn infants. Methods: Country teams with high-quality data were invited to be part of the Vulnerable Newborn Measurement Collaboration. We classified live births by six newborn types based on gestational age information (preterm <37 weeks versus term ≥37 weeks) and size for gestational age defined as small (SGA, <10th centile), appropriate (10th–90th centiles), or large (LGA, >90th centile) for gestational age, according to INTERGROWTH-21st standards. We considered small newborn types of any combination of preterm or SGA, and term + LGA was considered large. Time trends were analysed using 3-year moving averages for small and large types. Main outcome measures: Prevalence of six newborn types. Results: We analysed 165 017 419 live births and the median prevalence of small types was 11.7% – highest in Malaysia (26%) and Qatar (15.7%). Overall, 18.1% of newborns were large (term + LGA) and was highest in Estonia 28.8% and Denmark 25.9%. Time trends of small and large infants were relatively stable in most countries. Conclusions: The distribution of newborn types varies across the 23 middle- and high-income countries. Small newborn types were highest in west Asian countries and large types were highest in Europe. To better understand the global patterns of these novel newborn types, more information is needed, especially from low- and middle-income countries.
