View clinical trials related to HIV.
Filter by:There has been no previous qualitative study conducted in a low-income setting which has aimed to explore the experience of individuals who enrol into a clinical trial for the management of a life-threatening illness. The investigators plan to collect data from trial participants, their next-of-kin, and researchers working on a multi-site randomised controlled trial for the treatment of HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis.
This project is called Test@Work. In this project the investigators will offer general health checks and tailored health advice to up to 650 employees in the construction industry at sites across the East Midlands. The investigators will assess reach and uptake, and evaluate the views and perceptions of employees, managers and the delivery team. Health checks will include Body Mass Index (BMI; weight/height), waist-to-hip ratio, blood pressure, mental health screen, sexual health consultation and an opt-in rapid screening test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Employees will be provided with a resource pack with information and signposting around physical activity, diabetes risk, diet, and musculoskeletal health. A digital resource providing information and signposting about workplace health screening and HIV testing will be developed and provided to managers at the participating worksites 2 weeks before their health check event. Employees will be offered an additional text messaging service involving receipt of a series of messages with advice around HIV and testing alongside general health information. Employees will complete post-health check exit questionnaires and an exit interview. Managers will complete a post-event evaluation questionnaire and post-event interview. Mixed-methods evaluation will include assessment of reach, uptake, and intervention implementation processes.
The aim of the study is to assess the feasibility of HCV, HBV, HIV testing (according to the national guidelines) during consultation with Anesthesiologist before a planned surgery in Lariboisiere Hospital, Paris, France. The feasibility will be the number of tested patients divided by the number of patients who should have been tested according to the national guidelines (for each virus).
Determine if depression, which persists after depression treatment at 26 weeks, is associated with increased innate inflammation in a prospective cohort of HIV-infected Ugandans receiving SSRIs in which group psychotherapy is initiated.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the economic situations, discrimination experiences, and risk behaviors of transgender women. The ultimate purpose of the study is to test an intervention to improve financial conditions and reduce HIV risk behaviors in transgender women.
This study aims to evaluate two ways to help people re-engage with healthcare. The first is to assess if providing HIV treatment on the first visit (or within 1 week) can help people re-engage with care and ultimately stay in care after 24 and 48 weeks. It will also assess the success of starting treatment immediately by measuring the HIV virus in people's bloodstream after 24 and 48 weeks. The second part of this study is to assess a new behavioral treatment called 60-Minutes-for-Health which aims to help people identify and overcome barriers to HIV care, to help with motivation maintaining in care, to help cope with negative feelings about HIV, and to help increase self-reliance in seeking healthcare amid other things that are happening in your life.
The proposed project involves the development and testing of an mhealth intervention to increase adherence to PrEP treatment using texts providing tailored pill reminders, motivational messages, and health education messages. The intervention targets culturally-diverse young adult men who have sex with men (YMSM), who are at high risk for both HIV and non-adherence to PrEP medication. Supporting PrEP adherence would help reduce new HIV infections in this group.
Subjects who go to emergency room for possible contact to HIV transmission receive Delstrigo as post exposition prophylaxis.
The highest incidence of tuberculosis disease (TB) in the world is in India, accounting for 27% of all new cases globally, with approximately 86,000 among persons with HIV (PWH). Unhealthy alcohol use can worsen the health of people who have Tuberculosis (TB) and people who have both TB and HIV. Behavioral interventions that 1) target alcohol use and 2) are integrated into TB and TB/HIV care may lead to better outcomes. The goal of this study is to test if a behavioral alcohol reduction intervention integrated into TB treatment can reduce alcohol use and improve TB and HIV health outcomes among people with unhealthy alcohol use. The aims of the HATHI study are: Aim 1: To test if a 4 session behavioral alcohol reduction intervention, called CAP (Counseling on Alcohol Problems), integrated into TB and TB/HIV Care can decrease unhealthy alcohol use among persons with TB and TB and HIV. Aim 2: To test if the CAP intervention, integrated into TB and TB/HIV care can improve TB and HIV clinical outcomes; Aim 3: To evaluate barriers and facilitators to integrating CAP into TB and TB/HIV care, and to determine the incremental costs of delivering CAP in TB and HIV clinical settings. Investigators hypothesize that CAP intervention will reduce alcohol use among persons with TB and TB with HIV, and that it delivery in the TB and TB/HIV setting will be acceptable to patient and providers and feasible.
This study consists of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a multi-session cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) group intervention that aims to improve HIV outcomes by increasing adaptive, effective coping responses to stigma from intersectional identities related to ethnicity, immigration status, sexual minority identity, HIV status, and PrEP use among Latinx sexual minority men (SMM).
