The burden of air pollution-related morbidity and mortality in developing countries will continue if limited air monitoring and lack of air quality standards continue. This paper focuses on deriving optimal mean indoor threshold concentration levels of particulate matter (PM2.5) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for detecting respiratory symptoms among pregnant women in Ndola and Masaiti, Zambia.

The HIV pandemic has greatly contributed to the emergence of opportunistic fungal infections. Over the last two decades Cryptococcus neoformans infection is estimated to cause more than 500,000 deaths annually among HIV positive subjects in sub-Saharan Africa. However, in this environment scant attention has been paid to the screening of this infection. This study was therefore designed to determi
Public Health Policy and Health Human Resource Preferences in North Central Nigeria: A Costly Paradox?
Hassan Achimugu
Nigeria has some of the most disturbing health indicators in sub Saharan Africa and indeed the world. The WHO estimates that about 157 out of 1000 Nigerian children annually die before their fifth birthdays, from preventable/treatable diseases. This is aside the fact that Nigeria contributes about 10% of global maternal mortality though it hosts just 2% of the world female population. This narrati
