Surveillance without silos: a One Health data imperative for avian influenza in West Africa

Emmanuel Musa, Francis Akpa, Godfred O. Boateng

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology

Type
Journal article
Scope
Benin, Ghana, Guinea

Why it matters nowThe paper presents integrated surveillance as relevant to preparedness and to earlier detection and response for human or animal health threats in West Africa. This relevance is framed as an operational and preparedness priority in the abstract.

Heterogeneity of use, access, and retention of insecticide-treated nets: Implications for subnational tailoring to maximise malaria control

Andrew C Glover, Hannah Koenker, El Hadji Amadou Niang +2 more

eLife

Type
Journal article
Scope
Burkina Faso, United Kingdom, Ghana

Why it matters nowThe findings indicate that subnational variation in net use after access may be relevant when considering malaria-control deployment strategies. The abstract describes a framework for using routinely collected data to support subnational programme tailoring.

Unravelling the genomic epidemiology and antigenic evolution of Chandipura virus: A genetically constrained neurotropic threat

Pooja Rani Kuri, Amit Sharma

PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases

Type
Genomic study
Scope
India, Kenya, Nigeria

Why it matters nowAntigenic variations identified in key viral proteins indicate possible challenges for existing diagnostic assays and immunization platforms, reinforcing the value of continuous genomic tracking for health planning.

Prevalence, predictors, and management of advanced HIV disease among individuals initiating ART in Senegal, West Africa

Noelle A. Benzekri, Jacques F. Sambou, Sanou Ndong +13 more

BMC Infectious Diseases

Type
Guideline
Scope
Senegal

Why it matters nowThe high prevalence of advanced HIV disease at ART initiation and numerous missed opportunities for prevention and early diagnosis suggest substantial gaps in implementing WHO guidelines, indicating potential for preventable HIV-associated morbidity and mortality in Senegal.

Combining Hydrology and Mosquito Population Models to Identify the Drivers of Rift Valley Fever Emergence in Semi-Arid Regions of West Africa

Valérie Soti, Annelise Tran, Pascal Degenne +6 more

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases

Type
Journal article
Scope
Senegal

Why it matters nowThe study provides contextual evidence that rainfall, temporary pond behavior, and the joint dynamics of two mosquito species may be relevant to understanding Rift Valley fever emergence in semi-arid West African settings.
