TL;DR: Efforts to limit the effect of mosquito-borne diseases in endemic areas face the twin challenges of controlling mosquito populations and delivering effective public health interventions.

TL;DR: This review highlights areas needing further investigation, including the prevalence of different late effects, determination of risk factors associated with a late effect, a better understanding of the potential impact of late effects on the premature development of common adult health problems, and the value and timing of different tests for screening asymptomatic survivors.

TL;DR: It is suggested that clinical mentoring may be a valuable tool in scale-up of quality paediatric HIV care-and-treatment outside specialised centres and improve clinical outcomes for HIV-infected children.

TL;DR: Findings provide little justification for adding hepatitis C coinfection screening to the management of HIV infection in Botswana.

TL;DR: The findings support the continued investment in programmes employing properly trained nurses in southern Africa to provide quality care and ART services to HIV-infected children who are stable on therapy and task shifting remains a promising strategy to scale up and sustain adult and paediatric ART more effectively.
