Adolescents' Use of Sex sites: Developments on the Ten-year Interval in Norway.
the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) declared its 10
outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in 42 years on August 1
2018. The rapid rise and spread of the EVD outbreak threatened health security in neighboring countries and global health security. The United Nations developed an EVD preparedness and readiness (EVD-PR) plan to assist the nine neighboring countries to advance their critical preparedness measures. In Uganda, EVD-PR was implemented between 2018 and 2019. The World Health Organization commissioned an independent evaluation to assess the impact of the investment in EVD-PR in Uganda. Objectives i) to document the program achievements; ii) to determine if the capacities developed represented good value for the funds and resources invested; iii) to assess if more cost-effective or sustainable alternative approaches were available; iv) to explore if the investments were aligned with country public health priorities; and v) to document the factors that contributed to the program success or failureesented good value for the funds and the activities were well aligned to the public health priorities for Uganda.

Ebola virus disease preparedness and readiness program in Uganda developed capacities that played an essential role in preventing cross border spread of EVD from the affected provinces in the DRC and enabled rapid containment of the two importation events. These capacities are now being used to detect and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Severe forms of the disease can lead to respiratory failure with multiple organ failure necessitating rehabilitation in both acute and long-term care. With the increasing prevalence of COVID-19 and rehabilitation needs, the African Rehabilitation Network (AFRENET) produced a guidance document to assist in reducing variation in clinical practice among rehabilitation professionals in the Africa Region. This report outlines the process of the guideline development.Intraspinal tumors are uncommon. Positive diagnosis is based on medical imaging exams, in particular MRI. Anatomopathological examination allows for definitive diagnosis. Surgery is the treatment of choice for most of them. Prognosis is related to the histological type and patient´s initial clinical condition. We here report the histological profile and progression of intraspinal tumors in our department. We conducted a retrospective study over a period of 10 years. All operated patients with histology-confirmed intraspinal tumor (23 cases) were enrolled. Four unworkable records were excluded. The median time from symptom onset and first consultation was 79 days. Patients presented with spinal cord compression. In 11 cases this was characterized by slow onset. Seven CT scan and 14 MRI were performed, which showed 4 intramedullary tumors, 9 intradural, 1 extradural, and 5 of unknown site. Histological examination showed meningioma in 11 cases, neurinoma in 3 cases. In 7 cases, it confirmed the diagnosis based on Imaging tests (4 CT and 3 MRI). Macroscopically complete resection was performed in 14 cases; it was partial in 5 cases. After a 6-month follow-up period 6 patients had fully recovered, 9 partially. This study highlights diagnosis delays. MRI better defined the lesion, but its histological approach was limited. Meningiomas dominated. Complete resection was most often performed. The postoperative course was uneventful.Pulmonary infarction usually appears as a wedge-shaped opacity with its base placed laterally. Rarely, pulmonary infarctions may appear as a well-defined rounded opacity mimicking lung cancer and surgical lung biopsy may often be required for definitive diagnosis. We report a patient who was admitted with submassive pulmonary embolism who had an incidental finding of a well-defined opacity in computed tomography (CT) scan. CH5126766 molecular weight The lesion was avid on positron emission tomography (PET) scan and the patient was a smoker. So, we investigated him further with a percutaneous and later a thoracoscopic lung biopsy. Tumour-like pulmonary infarction is often a challenge for the clinicians.
human papilloma virus (HPV) which is preventable is the main cause of cervical cancer and it targets mostly young adolescents. The study was to determine the practice desire, attitude and knowledge of mothers of adolescent girls on HPV vaccination in Western Kenya.

this was a descriptive cross-sectional study design. Data was obtained using semi-structured questionnaires and analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics at 95% confidence level using the SPSS software version 22. A p-value ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

ninety five percent of the mothers had intentions to vaccinate their daughters and also had a positive attitude and their response to HPV vaccination was significantly lower than those without intentions p=0.02, 95% CI, OR=0.48 (0.90-0.89). Vaccination against HPV was low at 9.4% with a mean age of 34 years. Our results found a high level of cervical cancer awareness (85.0%), HPV and vaccine awareness respectively (62.0%, and 64.0%). "Vaccination of my daughters will prompt early sexual activity and the cost of HPV vaccination being a barrier to vaccination" had a statistically significant influence on the practice of vaccination. Negative attitude to daughters´ early onset of sexual activity significantly reduced up take while positive attitude to cost of HPV vaccine significantly increased up take of HPV vaccination with p value of 0.007 and 0.04 respectively.

awareness of HPV and HPV vaccine prevention is low among mothers of adolescent girls in Western Kenya. There was a positive attitude and high desire towards the use of HPV vaccination therefore a need for awareness, policy and unify efforts to reduce cervical cancer burden.
