This profile is part of a series of Climate Risk Country Profiles developed by the World Bank Group (WBG). The country profile
synthesizes most relevant data and information on climate change, disaster risk reduction, and adaptation actions and policies
at the country level. The country profile se...ries are designed as a quick reference source for development practitioners to better
integrate climate resilience in development planning and policy making.

This study, conducted by Tudu et al. (2020), explores the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with concurrent malaria and HIV infection, a combination that is relatively understudied in India. The research was carried out at the Department of Medicine, VIMSAR, Odisha, over a one-year p...eriod and included patients who presented with fever lasting up to seven days. Out of 340 patients diagnosed with malaria, 52 (15.29%) were found to also be HIV-positive.
The patients were divided into three groups: Group A with malaria and HIV co-infection, Group B with HIV mono-infection, and Group C with malaria mono-infection. The clinical presentation in co-infected patients resembled that of HIV more closely than malaria. Common symptoms in the co-infected group included fever (82.7%), vomiting (72.3%), anemia (72.3%), headache (65.4%), and aspiration pneumonia (57.7%). Laboratory findings revealed that a significant number of co-infected patients had hemoglobin levels below 7 g/dL and CD4 cell counts under 200 cells/μL, indicating advanced immunosuppression.
All patients received antimalarial treatment with injectable artesunate and antiretroviral therapy (ART). Despite appropriate treatment, the outcome for co-infected patients was comparatively worse: while 48 out of 52 recovered, 6 patients died, mainly due to complications such as anemia, acute kidney injury, and aspiration pneumonia.
In conclusion, the study highlights that although malaria-HIV co-infection is not highly prevalent, it is associated with severe clinical outcomes. Routine screening for both infections in febrile patients is recommended to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.

The Country Profiles provide an overview of findings from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD). They are based on over 80,000 different data sources used by researchers to produce the most scientifically rigorous estimates possible. Estimates from the GBD study may differ from national statistics due ...to differences in data sources and methodology. These profiles are meant to be freely downloaded and distributed

Психические расстройства имеют общие черты с другими неинфекционными заболеваниями, в том числе многие основные причины и общие последствия, высокую степень взаи...мозависимости и склонность развиваться одновременно, а также то, что их наиболее эффективное лечению связано с использованием интегрированных подходов. Схемы более интегрированного планирования и программирования включают: вмешательства популяционного уровня, направленные на повышение осведомленности о факторах риска НИЗ и психических расстройств и их снижение (посредством изменения законодательства, регулирования и повышения информированости); внедрение программ, осуществляемых в школах, на рабочих местах и в сообществах в целях укрепления психического и физического благополучия; предоставление более индивидуальных услуг здравоохранения, и предоставление более координированной помощи людям с (часто коморбидными) психическими и соматическими заболеваниями.
