Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the countries in the Central Asia region are still at the earliest stage of an HIV/AIDS epidemic, they are experiencing a steep growth of new HIV cases, related epidemics of injected drug use, sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) and tuberculosis. They also have a large youth population and low levels of public awareness about the epidemics. This report contains country profiles which identify key issues and recommend further action, covering epidemiology; strategic and regulatory frameworks; surveillance; preventive, diagnostic and treatment activities; non-governmental and partner activities; and resources available.

Book Stopping Tuberculosis in Central Asia

Download or read book Stopping Tuberculosis in Central Asia written by Joana Godinho and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Tuberculosis is still a significant health and economic problem in Central Asia, despite recent progress of the overall economic situation in the region. Over 50,000 new cases were detected in 2003, and over 7,000 people died due to tuberculosis in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan the four countries analyzed in this study. Stopping Tuberculosis in Central Asia examines the control efforts and financing of tuberculosis programs in the region. It also addresses the impending epidemiological crisis that has been posed by the sudden increase in cases of HIV/AIDS infection combined with a prevalent epidemic of tuberculosis. The authors find that it is highly unlikely that the Central Asian Republics will succeed in achieving the global targets for tuberculosis control in the short-term unless decisive action is taken.

This book was released on 2021-03-22 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis. Module 2: screening – systematic screening for tuberculosis disease is an updated and consolidated summary of WHO recommendations on systematic screening for tuberculosis (TB) disease, containing 17 recommendations for populations in which TB screening should be conducted and tools to be used for TB screening. TB screening is strongly recommendations for household and close contacts of individuals with TB, people living with HIV, miners exposed to silica dust, and prisoners. In addition, screening is conditionally recommended for people with risk factors for TB attending health care, and for communities with risk factors for TB and limited access to care (e.g. homeless, urban poor, refugees, migrants). General population screening is recommended in high-burden settings (0.5% prevalence or higher). Symptoms, chest radiography (CXR), and molecular WHO-recommended rapid diagnostic tests for TB are recommended as screening tools for all adults eligible for screening. Computer-aided detection programmes are recommended as alternatives to human interpretation of CXR in settings where trained personnel are scarce. For people living with HIV, C-reactive protein is also a good screening tool. This guideline document is accompanied by an operational handbook, the WHO operational handbook on tuberculosis. Module 2: screening – systematic screening for tuberculosis disease, that presents principles of screening, steps in planning and implementing a screening programme, and algorithm options for screening different populations.

Book Drugs and Public Health in Post Soviet Central Asia

Download or read book Drugs and Public Health in Post Soviet Central Asia written by Muyassar Turaeva and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-27 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book outlines post-Soviet style of health management in Central Asia. Regional studies on Central Asia to date have focused on states, politics, religion and inter-ethnic relations but not on the health system within the region. Soviet-style policies have also covered only other aspects relevant for the region. This book highlights the public health situation of the region with a focus on drug abuse, HIV/AIDS in the context of increased mobility, and drug trafficking routes which became even more porous after the break-up of the Soviet Union. Based on a qualitative study, the empirical data in the book was collected during long-term fieldwork conducted in Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan in 2010-2011 as well as shorter stays in Uzbekistan between 2012-2016. The analysis of the empirical material largely draws on the works of Foucault, particularly his concept of biopolitics when analyzing Soviet-style health management that is still practiced in the region. Applying the Foucauldian genealogical method, this study has been structured to trace the genealogy of epidemics to understand the historical path of drug abuse in the region as well as the discursive genealogy of drug politics and drug abuse. Applying the same genealogical method of Foucault, the formative and discursive trajectory of the institution of Uchyot was traced to contextualize the health governance methods that have historical legacy of Soviet-style governance and control of the total population. Drugs and Public Health in Post-Soviet Central Asia: Soviet-Style Health Management is a unique resource for academic specialists, practitioners/professionals, and advanced undergraduate and graduate students in public health, as well as a range of scholars and professionals in sociology, political science, anthropology, and anyone with an interest in the Central Asia region, drug addiction, or HIV. The book also could appeal to international donors in the field of HIV/drug addiction who are working in the region.
