Filter by:We will conduct a four-year, observational study of 850 participants to measure physical activity and diet, once a year for three years. All participants will also complete the standard Centers for AIDS Research (CFAR) Network of Integrated Clinical Systems (CNICS) patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and clinical assessment procedures. An enhanced PRO assessment (consisting measures of physical activity, diet intake and anthropomorphic factors) will be included after the routine patient clinic visit at four CNICS sites: Case Western Reserve University, University of Alabama at Birmingham, University of Washington, and Fenway Health.
The purpose of this study is: 1. To develop a new mobile health (mHealth) system that will send text messages to remind both pregnant and non-pregnant women with HIV to adhere to their treatment plan (like keeping appointments, fillings prescriptions, and taking their medication) and address individual barriers to HIV care (like stigma, medical mistrust and resilience). 2. Investigators also want to see if the mHealth system is feasible, easily accepted and if it will impact patient health in a positive way.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about both HIV-1 infection and advancing age, and their association with increased risk of serious infection and impaired response to the Prevnar 13 vaccine.
A three arm cluster randomized trial randomizing government primary health clinics to a) standard of care (SOC) with clinic invitation only; b) standard of care (SOC) and one self-test kit to give to sexual partner (s); c) standard of care (SOC) and self-test kit and monetary incentive given to partner conditional on clinic attendance and completion of pre-set procedures to determine secondary accuracy. Trial to be conducted in four districts (Blantyre, Zomba, Machinga and Chikwawa) in Malawi in collaboration with the Ministry of Health. Two primary outcomes: 1. proportion of male partners of antenatal care clinic attendees reported by the woman to have tested for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) within 28 days of enrolling the woman 2. Number of new HIV positives identified by providing trial services to newly tested HIV positive clients in routine HIV testing service within 28 days of enrolling the index client. Data analysed as intention to treat with all eligible antenatal care (ANC) attendees and index clients at each health facility as the denominator, with unpaired t-test used to compare each intervention arm to the standard of care (SOC).
The overall goal of this 5-year Mentored Research Scientist Development K01-Award is to support Henna Budhwani, PhD, MPH to become an independent implementation science investigator in the field of HIV prevention. The proposed project seeks to address the HIV crisis in Alabama, where rates of undiagnosed HIV in black young men who have sex with men (YMSM, 18-29 years) exceed 20%. This project will adapt and test a behavioral intervention to promote HIV rapid testing in the community, deliver culturally appropriate prevention education, offer sociostructural support, and refer eligible participants for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Four training objectives are proposed that are in lockstep with three specific aims.
Aim 1: Adapt Ottawa Decision Support Framework for the HIV PrEP decisional needs of African, Caribbean and Black (ACB) Canadian patients Aim 2. Pilot Test The Adapted Decision-Support Intervention Using a Two-Arm Randomized Controlled Design
To observe the efficacy and safety of simplified therapy regimen for treating with HIV-1 infected patients in Chinese real word.
The study aims to evaluate the virological effectiveness of a third-line regimen combining dolutegravir (DTG), ritonavir-boosted darunavir (DRV/r) and optimized NRTI in Cambodian HIV-infected adults, who failed a protease inhibitors (PI)-based second-line regimen despite 3 months of boosted adherence counseling (BAC).
Vulnerability to HIV infection in Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW) is mainly influenced by structural factors which mediate through sexual risk behavior. The Sauti program as implementing partner of the DREAMS initiative will provide unconditional cash transfer on quarterly basis to vulnerable AGYW in selected districts of Tanzania. The CARE study will evaluate the impact of this activity through a cluster randomised controlled trial that involves quantitative and qualitative research techniques. The study will inform policy makers on the impact of Cash transfer programs in AGYW as a tool to reduce vulnerability to HIV infection in Adolescent Girls and Young women.
A retrospective and prospective study among people living with HIV (PLWH) that assesses hepatitis C (HCV) treatment uptake during periods before and after direct acting antivirals (DAA) introduction, and its impact on the HCV epidemic among PLWH.
