Filter by:Youth under age 18 involved in the criminal justice system are disproportionately minorities & affected by substance abuse, mental illness, & HIV/STI. Most young offenders are released on community supervision without the STI, mental health, or substance use screening, diagnosis, & treatment afforded detained youth, despite similar rates of risk behavior. Their long-term trajectory is poor, costs to society are high, & lasting effects on community well-being & individual employment prospects are profound. Altering this trajectory is a public health priority. Preventing HIV Among Teens (PHAT) Life is an evidence-based program that meets the need in juvenile justice to address youths' co-morbid health problems. The next step in ensuring that this decade-long line of research produces actual, real-world improvements in the lives of probation youth is to develop a PHAT Life training strategy that is effective, cost-effective, & sustainable within juvenile justice settings. The private/public collaboration between ORBIS & UIC will leverage existing resources & competencies to create a commercially viable technology-based training tool for PHAT Life with great potential for sustainability & cost-effectiveness. This Phase II uses a formative process to refine, enhance & complete the technology-based training tool to include: (a) an interactive multimedia web browser & mobile application, (b) dynamic multimedia presentations & interactive queries, (c) video examples of mock intervention delivery, (d) audio narration along with scripted language, (e) brief quizzes to ensure comprehension & knowledge acquisition, (f) opportunities to "learn more" by clicking on tabs for supplemental information, (g) targeted referrals to appendix materials, (h) games to promote engagement, & (i) other adaptations based on Phase I feedback. The proposed technology-based training tool should be highly sustainable, because it (a) relies on "indigenous" personnel to deliver the intervention, (b) is likely to prove cost-effective since it will utilize a technology that can deliver training at scale, & (c) will improve fidelity by leveraging technology to provide consistent training experiences to para-professionals. The training tool will be evaluated via a 2-arm RCT with 130 individuals who work with justice-involved youth. Trainees will receive the technology-based training tool.
BCN03 is a Single-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase I study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and efficacy of a vaccine regimen that includes a sequence of the T- and B-cell immunogens ChAdOx1.HTI and MVA.HTI and ConM SOSIP.v7 gp140 adjuvanted with MPLA liposomes in 30 virologically-suppressed ART-treated HIV-1 positive individuals.
IMPAACT 2028 is an observational prospective study to characterize a cohort of early treated children who may participate in future research related to HIV remission or cure. Up to approximately 250 participants will be in the study for approximately seven years. No intervention is provided in the study.
Insufficient screening and diagnostic delay play a significant role in sustaining the HIV epidemic by France. Gender inequalities major factors reinforce social inequalities in order to of heterosexual men born abroad the most later diagnosed with HIV infection. Those gender differences are largely due to efficiency antenatal HIV screening, offered to women every pregnancy and widely accepted: a billed HIV serology in the context of pregnancy monitoring was found for 92% pregnant women benefiting from health insurance in 2015 the health of men is not taken into account in prenatal follow-up current French. The maternity hospital drains a population largely immigrant, often precarious The male prenatal consultation exists but it is not organized: it is possible to implement it, provided that the constraints exerted on men are taken into account. the projet study the feasibility and the implementation processes place of prenatal consultation of future fathers
In Uganda, 130,000 children (0-14 years of age) were living with HIV in 2018. Last year, nearly 450 infants acquired HIV every day; most of them during childbirth and these are at extremely high risk of dying in the first two years of life from treatable infections which present with fever. While fevers are commonly attributed to malaria, most fevers in African children are not due to malaria and clinicians are challenged by the similar clinical features of wide spectrum of potential aetiologies. The prevalence of treatable causes of non-malarial febrile illnesses in children in Africa has been reported to be 45%.
The objective of this proposal is to conduct a pilot test of a program aimed at training traditional healers to conduct HIV testing and implementing HIV testing among people living in Bushbuckridge, South Africa. Pilot Healer-initiated HIV testing uptake and linkage to prevention services. Trust in allopathic health care and HIV stigma will be measured among participants at study enrollment and at month seven. Hypothesis: Healer-initiated HIV counseling and testing (HICT) will increase trust in allopathic health care and reduce HIV stigma.
This phase I trial evaluates the side effects and usefulness of axicabtagene clioleucel (a CAR-T therapy) and find out what effect, if any, it has on treating patients with HIV-associated aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or not responded to treatment (refractory). T cells are infection fighting blood cells that can kill tumor cells. Axicabtagene ciloleucel consists of genetically modified T cells, modified to recognize CD-19, a protein on the surface of cancer cells. These CD-19-specific T cells may help the body's immune system identify and kill CD-19-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells.
This clinical trial aims to find what different tests work best to find high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in the cervix or anus in patients living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Patients with HIV are at high risk of becoming infected with human papillomavirus (HPV) in the cervix or anus where it can turn into cancer over several years. HPV causes changes to the cervix and anus, known as HSIL. This means that there is an area of abnormal tissue on the top layers of the cervix or anus. It is considered cervical or anal cancer if the abnormality spreads down into the layers of tissue below the top. If found early, many cases of HSIL can be treated before turning into cancer. Screening for cervical or anal cancer detection or HSIL associated with HPV may result in earlier treatment, if necessary, for patients living with HIV.
This clinical trial evaluates the usefulness of using a smartphone-based HIV-specific smoking cessation intervention at the time of lung cancer screening in helping people living with HIV quit smoking. Positively Smoke Free - Mobile may help patients with HIV quit smoking.
This study is a double blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel group study, designed to compare the efficacy and safety of VB-201 80mg taken orally once daily to placebo for anti-inflammation in HIV-infected subjects.
