    Abstract Background: In 2012, the WHO issued a policy recommendation for the use of seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) to children 3-59 months in areas of highly seasonal malaria transmission. Clinical trials have found SMC to prevent around 75% of clinical malaria. Impact under routine programmatic conditions has been assessed during research studies but there is a need to identify sustainable methods to monitor impact using routinely collected data.
    Methods: Data from Demographic Health Surveys were merged with rainfall, geographical and programme data in Burkina Faso (2010, 2014, 2017) and Nigeria (2010, 2015, 2018) to assess impact of SMC. We conducted mixed-effects logistic regression to predict presence of malaria infection in children aged 6-59 months (rapid diagnostic test (RDT) and microscopy, separately).
    Results: We found strong evidence that SMC administration decreases odds of malaria measured by RDT during SMC programmes, after controlling for seasonal factors, age, sex, net use and other variables (Burkina Faso OR 0.28, 95% CI 0.21 to 0.37, p<0.001; Nigeria OR 0.40, 95% CI 0.30 to 0.55, p<0.001). The odds of malaria were lower up to 2 months post-SMC in Burkina Faso (1-month post-SMC: OR 0.29, 95% CI 0.12 to 0.72, p=0.01; 2 months post-SMC: OR: 0.33, 95% CI 0.17 to 0.64, p<0.001). The odds of malaria were lower up to 1 month post-SMC in Nigeria but was not statistically significant (1-month post-SMC 0.49, 95% CI 0.23 to 1.05, p=0.07). A similar but weaker effect was seen for microscopy (Burkina Faso OR 0.38, 95% CI 0.29 to 0.52, p<0.001; Nigeria OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.76, p<0.001).
    Conclusions: Impact of SMC can be detected in reduced prevalence of malaria from data collected through household surveys if conducted during SMC administration or within 2 months afterwards. Such evidence could contribute to broader evaluation of impact of SMC programmes.

    Abstract A 45 year old trader presented with history of persistent productive cough, progressively increasing dyspnoea, malaise and fever of 6 months prior to presentations. He also complained of severe lower backache and stiffness that radiated to both legs of 5 years duration. Chest radiograph revealed left apical fibrosis, coarse, linear shadows with cavities. There was also super infection with aspergilloma in the left apical region. The sputum AAFB was negative. Despite the fact that the patient complained of lower backache and stiffness, the plain radiograph of the affected spine was not requested for by the attending physician. Rather, the patient was commenced on antituberculous therapy based on pulmonary changes on chest radiograph. But after completing the treatment (nine months regimen), there were no improvement in patient's clinical conditions and pulmonary changes on repeated chest radiograph. The plain radiographs of the lumbosacral spine, pelvis and both hips were suggested by the author (Radiologist) who reviewed the patient's chest radiographs. The radiographs of the lumbosacral spine, as well as pelvis and both hips showed features of ankylosing spondylitis with pulmonary complication. His treatment was later reviewed based on the above new findings. This report highlights the fact that pulmonary manifestation in ankylosing spondylitis, a rare entity in our environment can present the same pattern as pulmonary tuberculosis which is far more common in this environment. A high index of suspicion will enhance early proper diagnosis.

    Abstract Introduction: Non-cigarette tobacco (NCT) represents a form of tobacco use with a misperceived significance in chronic disease events. Whether NCT use is sufficient to promote stroke events, especially among Africans, is yet to be understood. This study assessed the relationship between NCT use and stroke among indigenous Africans.
    Methods: A total of 7617 respondents (NCT users: 41 vs. non-NCT: 7576) from the Stroke Investigative Research and Educational Network (SIREN) study were included in the current analysis. NCT use was defined as self-reported use of smoked (cigars or piper) or smokeless (snuff or chewed) tobacco in the past year preceding stroke events. Stroke was defined based on clinical presentation and confirmed with a cranial computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was applied to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for the relationship of NCT with stroke at a two-sided p < .05.
    Results: Out of the 41 (0.54%) who reported NCT use, 27 (65.9%) reported using smokeless NCT. NCT users were older than non-NCT users (62.8 ± 15.7 vs. 57.7 ± 14.8 years). Overall, NCT use was associated with first-ever stroke (OR: 2.08; 95% CI: 1.02, 4.23) in the entire sample. Notably, smokeless NCT use was independently associated with higher odds of stroke (OR: 2.74; 95% CI: 1.15, 6.54), but smoked NCT use (OR: 0.16; 95% CI: 0.02, 1.63) presented a statistically insignificant association after adjusting for hypertension and other covariates.
    Conclusions: NCT use was associated with higher odds of stroke, and public health interventions targeting NCT use might be promising in reducing the burden of stroke among indigenous Africans.
    Implications: A detailed understanding of the relationship between NCT use and stroke will likely inform well-articulated policy guidance and evidence-based recommendations for public health prevention and management of stroke on the African continent.

    Abstract Background: The dietary factors associated with the high burden of hypertension among indigenous Africans remain poorly understood. We assessed the relationship between dietary patterns and hypertension among indigenous Africans.
    Method: In this study, 1550 participants with hypertension matched (for age: ± 5 years, sex and ethnicity) with 1550 participants without hypertension were identified from the stroke-free population in the Stroke Investigative Research and Educational Network study in Ghana and Nigeria. Food consumption was assessed using a food frequency questionnaire, and dietary information was summarized using principal component analysis to identify seven dietary patterns. Conditional logistic regression was applied to compute the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for the risk of hypertension by tertiles of dietary patterns adjusting for age, education, income, smoking, alcohol use, physical inactivity, family history of cardiovascular diseases, obesity and salt intake at a two-sided P less than 0.05.
    Results: Multivariable-adjusted OR [95% confidence interval (CI)] for risk of hypertension by second and third tertiles [using the lowest (first) tertile as reference] of dietary patterns were 0.62 (0.48-0.80), 0.70 (0.54-0.90) for whole grains and fruit drinks; 0.87 (0.68-1.12), 0.83 (0.64-1.08) for fruits; 0.85 (0.65-1.10), 0.97 (0.75-1.26) for vegetables, legumes and potatoes; 0.78 (0.60-1.00), 0.84 (0.65-1.08) for fried foods and sweetened drinks; 1.13 (0.88-1.45), 0.80 (0.62-1.03) for poultry product and organ meat; 1.11 (0.86-1.43), 0.88 (0.68-1.14) for red meat; and 1.14 (0.88-1.48), 1.09 (0.84-1.43) for processed foods ( P  < 0.05).
    Conclusion: A higher adherence to dietary consumption of whole grains and fruits was inversely associated with low odds of hypertension in this population.

    Abstract Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is found mostly in the middle-aged group. We report a rare occurrence of ADPKD in a 17-year-old male student with clinical presentation of bilateral loin pains and total haematuria. Clinical diagnosis of Acute-on-Chronic Glomerulonephritis was made. However Ultrasound and Intravenous Urography confirmed the diagnosis of Adult Polycystic Disease. The possible embryogenesis and associated anomalies of ADPKD and the radiological findings were reviewed.

    Abstract One of the most interesting congenital malformations to manage is a conjoined twin. Conjoined twins are rare occurrences in obstetric/pediatric practice. More commonly known as Siamese twins, this phenomenon is shrouded in mystery and considered a curiosity by general public. Current technology is lending a helping hand in the early diagnosis of these conditions. Frequently, the twins are born dead, but there are few cases in which the twins survive. We presented a case of dicephalus dipud conjoined twins; a rare type of conjoined twins.

    Abstract Background: Brain tumors have been associated with various psychiatric and neurological manifestations. However in some patients with brain tumors psychiatric symptom might be the only clinical presentation for various lengths of time. As such they would be treated as straight forward psychiatric disorders.
    Objective: To report a case of craniopharyngioma presenting as recurrent depressive illness in a 42 years old man.
    Methods: Clinical follow up of a patient presenting with recurrent depressive illness till death
    Results: recurrent severe depressive illness in the absence of focal neurological deficit that is unresponsive to anti-depressant might be due to intracranial neoplasm.
    Conclusion: Brain tumors can sometime present as psychiatric disorders and be difficult to detect in the absences of focal neurological deficit and Neuro-imaging studies.

    Abstract Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (APKD), an inheritable multisystem disease characterized by intrarenal and at times extrarenal disease, has been studied extensively among Caucasian populations. Despite the fact that being black is a risk factor for progressive disease, there is paucity of local published data. As a result, true local incidence and peculiarities in clinical and sonographic characteristics are unknown.
    Aim: To present data from 19 patients diagnosed with APKD in a medium-sized facility over a 16-year period.
    Materials and methods: A retrospective search was done on the ultrasound registers for patients who had undergone abdominal ultrasound in 16 years (1997-2013). Of the 29 sonographic diagnoses of bilateral PKD made, only 19 had complete records and were included in the study. Data extracted were- age, sex, working diagnosis, renal size, diameter of renal cysts, presence or absence of extrarenal cysts, family history of renal cystic disease, blood pressure at diagnosis, and patient outcome.
    Results: A total of 19 diagnoses of APKD were made- 12 males and seven females with a sex ratio of 1:0.6. Total mean age was 54.8 years (range 31-79 years)- 40.1 years for females and 57.2 years for males. In 89.5% of cases, no family history of APKD was obtained. Only six (31.6%) patients were hypertensive at presentation and three patients (16%) were already in renal failure. Ultrasound showed a mean renal size of 88.92 cm² for the right kidney and 98.97 cm² for the left. Mean cyst diameter was 3.46 cm (range 2.08-4.85 cm). Only one patient had documented extrarenal cystic disease. Two patients were lost to renal failure and congestive cardiac failure.
    Conclusion: APKD appears to be uncommon in our environment; however, more studies may be elucidatory. Standard sonographic protocol for collecting data from patients with APKD is needed.
