“…On the other hand, higher than study in Hawassa, Kenya and India, which was 84.1%, 61% and 77%, respectively (20,29,35). Likewise, it was higher than studies conducted in Harar, Barcelona, Peru and Burkina Faso, which was 70.6%, 70.8%, 60% and 88.1%, respectively (16,24,33,37). It is also higher than study in Gondar and Southern Ethiopia, which was 81.7% and 68.8%, respectively (43,44).…”

“…Assisted partner services are rarely available in sub Saharan Africa (13) even though pediatric HIV testing barriers are distinct from adult barriers (14). However, partner noti cation strategies must be feasible in healthcare setting and acceptable to the population (2, 15) as well to children's HIV testing during the routine activities (16). Healthcare settings screen broadly for HIV use social network and partner testing to select high-risk individuals based on their contacts (17).…”

Background: Despite the enormous expansion of HIV testing services (HTS), an estimated 40% of people with HIV infection remain undiagnosed. In Ethiopia, the current working UNAIDS spectrum estimate for PLHIV is 649,264, of the estimated PLHIV, only about 72% know their status. Methods: A facility based cross-sectional study design with internal comparison was conducted among randomly selected 346 people currently on ART in Woliso town. Data entry carried out by Epi Info™ version 7.2.3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 21.0 statistical software for Windows.Results: Among 345 study participants, 333 (96.5%) with 95 % CI (94.5 - 98.3) of index cases have tested families. The odds of HIV testing were 7.22 times higher among those who disclosed their HIV status (AOR=7.22 95% CI: 1.45, 35.82) compared to those who did not disclosed. Those who have stayed <12 months on ART are 87% less likely to have tested families (AOR=0.13 95% CI: 0.03, 0.63) compared to those who stayed ≥12 months on ART. Conclusion: this study finding shows that higher proportions of families of index cases have been tested for HIV. It also shows that partner and family based index case HIV testing has significant association with HIV status disclosure of index cases and the length of the duration that the index cases stayed on ART. It is essential to sustain the platform of partner and family based index case HIV testing service through strengthening disclosure counselling and assisting HIV status disclosure in health facilities with fully trained provider and qualified health providers. It also suggests the need to focus on those who received ART for less than 12 months duration and communicate on the timing of HIV testing for HIV negative families with ongoing risk of acquiring HIV.

“…Similarly, Zoungrana/Yameogo et al [13] in 2021 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, reported that 88.1% of deaths occurred during the early neonatal period, including 39.68% within the first 24 hours of life. Barro et al [15] in 2019 in Bobo Dioulasso, Burkina Faso, found that 96% of deaths occurred within the first 7 days of life. According to Lawn et al [16], neonatal mortality follows the "two-thirds rule": two-thirds of newborn deaths occur during the first month, with more than two-thirds of these deaths occurring within the first week, and two-thirds of those occurring during the first 24 hours after birth.…”

Introduction: Neonatal pathology remains a real public health problem in developing countries. In Burkina Faso, this mortality has declined over the last ten years but remains below compared to the Sustainable Development Goals, which is 12 per 1000 living births at most by 2030. This study aims to identify specific causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality and will contribute to the implementation of preventive and curative measures aimed at reducing neonatal mortality at HOSCO. Method: This was a retrospective study using the records and database of newborns hospitalized from January 1 srt , 2017 to December 31 srt , 2020. Using logistic regression, the factors associated with mortality were determined. Results: During the study period, 3020 newborns were hospitalized. Most newborns (83.71%) were referred by a peripheral health facility. The average age at admission was 0.3 days ± 0.9 and the sex ratio was 1.2. Prematurity was the leading cause of hospitalization (61.13%) followed by neonatal infection (38.34%) and neonatal suffering (23.88%). The mortality rate was 40.6% with 82.71% cases of death in the early neonatal period. The main causes of death were low birth weight (47.39%), respiratory distress (18.76%), neonatal suffering (17.37%) and neonatal infection (13.87%). Home delivery, gestational age < 36 weeks, number of PNC < 4, concept of resuscitation, Apgar at the 5th minute < 7, birth weight < 2000 g and >4000 g, respiratory distress, hypothermia, neurological disorders were factors associated with deaths. Conclusion: Neonatal mortality
