“…This paper describes the exposure data collection for the Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (HAPIN), a multicountry randomized controlled trial of liquefied petroleum gas stoves and fuel among 3,200 households in India, Rwanda, Guatemala, and Peru. OBJECTIVES: The primary objectives of the exposure assessment are to estimate the exposure contrast achieved following a clean fuel intervention and to provide data for analyses of exposure–response relationships across a range of personal exposures. …”

“…METHODS: We conducted a framework analysis comparing experiences of nine purposively selected countries (Chile, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Mozambique, Rwanda, South Africa and Sri Lanka). We utilised qualitative case studies developed by in-country teams to explore enablers and barriers described across components of a predefined theory of change and then identified six cross-cutting themes and recommendations for relevant stakeholders associated with each theme. …”

“…The HAPIN trial will assess the impact of exclusive LPG use on air pollution exposure and health of pregnant women, older adult women, and infants under 1 year of age in Guatemala, India, Peru, and Rwanda. METHODS: Using the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation–Behaviour (COM–B) framework and Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) to guide formative research, we conducted in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observations, key informant interviews and pilot studies to identify key influencers of cooking behaviours in the four countries. …”

“…RESULTS: We found that prevalence of HIV testing uptake in the 28 sub-Saharan African countries was 64.4%, with Congo DR having the least (20.2%) and the highest occurred in Rwanda (97.4%). Women who took healthcare decisions alone [COR = 3.183, CI = 2.880–3.519] or with their partners [COR = 2.577, CI = 2.335–2.844] were more likely to test for HIV, compared to those whose healthcare decisions were taken by others, and this persisted after controlling for significant covariates: [AOR = 1.507, CI = 1.321–1.720] and [AOR = 1.518, CI = 1.334–1.728] respectively. …”

“…RESULTS: Of a total of 282 757 young women from 51 LMICs, 29.3% (95% CI, 24.1% to 34.5%) reported having knowledge of HIV/AIDS in the latest years, ranging from 1.0% (95% CI, 0.7% to 1.3%) in Afghanistan in 2015 to 64.9% (95% CI, 63.3% to 66.5%) in Rwanda in 2014 to 2015. Those living in rural areas, living in households in the lowest income quintile, or with low levels of education reported less knowledge about HIV/AIDS than their counterparts (−12.8 [95% CI, −10.6 to −14.9] percentage points; −21.8 [95% CI, −18.3 to −25.3] percentage points; and −19.4 [95% CI, −16.6 to −22.2] percentage points, respectively). …”

The lack of latrine, traditional pig husbandry practices, unprotected water sources, and increase in age were identified as significant risk factors for the occurrence of porcine cysticercosis in the pooled studies. …”

BP was obtained within a day of 24-h personal exposure measurements at baseline, when participants were using biomass for cooking. …”
