Background Central obesity is excessive accumulation of fat around the abdomen, which is associated with the risk of coronary heart and cerebrovascular diseases. This study determined the magnitude of central obesity among adult patients using the waist-to-hip ratio, which has a superior capacity to measure the risk of developing non-communicable diseases compared to the body mass index used in previous studies in Ethiopia. Methods Institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among a sample of 480 adults from April 1 to May 30, 2022. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Data were collected by using interviewer-administered structured questionnaires and anthropometric measurements. The data were entered into EPI INFO version 7 and analyzed by Statistical Software for Social Science Version 25. The associations between independent and dependent variables were checked using bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Adjusted odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were used to measure the strengths of the association. Statistical significance was declared at a P value of less than 0.05. Results The magnitude of central obesity in this study was 40% (51.2% and 27.4% among females and males, respectively (95% CI 36–44%)). Being a female (AOR = 9.5, 95% CI 5.22–17.9), age range 35–44 (AOR = 7.0, 95% CI 2.9–16.7), 45–64 years (AOR = 10.1, 95% CI4.0–15.2), married (AOR = 2.5, 95% CI 1.3–4.7), high monthly income (AOR = 3.3, 95% CI 1.5–7.3), high consumption of milk and milk products (AOR = 0.3, 95% CI 0.1–0.6), family history of obesity (AOR = 1.8, 95% CI 1.1–3.2) were significantly associated with central obesity among the study participants. Conclusion The magnitude of central obesity was higher in the study area. Sex, age, marital status, monthly income, consumption of milk and milk products, and family history of obesity were independent determinants of central obesity. Therefore, it is important to raise awareness about central obesity through behavior change communication that targets the high-risk population.

“…The results align with studies conducted in Mozambique 30 and Ethiopia. 12 – 16 This could be explained by women living with HIV being eager to know about co-morbidities, including CC, and having the chance to hear or read about CC via the news, care providers, and even social media, which might result in them having adequate information. Once the woman had adequate information, she would likely seek counseling and be encouraged to undergo CC screening.…”

“…1 In current studies in Ethiopia, such as Tigray, Gondar, Addis Abeba, and Adama, the uptake of CC screening among women living with HIV (WLHIV) was low and required more effort, with 8%, 10%, 25%, and 26.9%, respectively. 11 – 14 …”

“…Many studies have identified the following barriers to CC screening uptake: Sociodemographic factors such as age, educational level, and occupation; HIV and sexual behavior factors such as having several sexual partners, having a sexually transmitted disease (STI), getting started with sex at a young age, the duration since HIV diagnosis, and having a high HIV viral load; poor knowledge and unfavorable attitude-related factors; facility-related factors such as the inability and insufficient knowledge of medical personnel; the insufficient finances and expensive cost of screening; and a shortage of screening facilities. 5 , 12 , 14 – 16 …”

Background: Although cervical cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women and has a high morbidity, mortality, and low quality of life burden among human immune virus-positive women, there is little evidence of it in northeastern Ethiopia. Objective: Sought to determine the magnitude and associated factors of cervical cancer screening among human immune virus-positive women in public health facilities in northeastern Ethiopia. Methods and material: A multicentered, institution-based cross-sectional study with 401 participants using the systematic random sampling technique was employed. The data was gathered through personal interviews and chart reviews. The predictors were established via multivariate logistic regression analysis. Result: The magnitude of cervical cancer screening was 19.2% (15.7%–22.9%). Multiparity, bad obstetric history, hearing about cervical cancer, recommendations from medical professionals, duration of antiretroviral therapy >10 years, a family record of cervical cancer, and knowing cervical cancer were revealed to be predictors of testing for cervical cancer. Conclusion: The magnitude of cervical cancer screening was 19.2% (15.7%–22.9%). Multiparity, bad obstetric history, hearing about cervical cancer, recommendations from medical professionals, duration of antiretroviral therapy >10 years, a family record of cervical cancer, and knowing cervical cancer were revealed to be predictors of testing for cervical cancer.
