Filter by:This study will test the effectiveness of a text message-based intervention on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing behaviors among adolescent (13-18 year old) sexual minority men and transgender and gender diverse teens (ASMM/TGD). To test the effectiveness on HIV testing behaviors we will randomize participants to the treatment or an attention matched information only control arm and asses our primary effectiveness outcome of objective HIV testing (e.g., photo of test results).
Psychological distress (anxiety and depression) is common in and experienced differently by people living with long-term health conditions (LTCs). Being able to measure whether psychological distress is related to living with a LTC would allow researchers and clinicians to provide interventions specifically tailored to the challenges of living with a LTC and therefore provide the most appropriate support for these patients. Such a measure would also be useful in research to identify the presence of illness-related distress in different patient groups. This project will therefore create a new measure of illness-related distress that has applications for both research and clinical practice. This will involve the psychometric validation of the new illness-related distress measure to test how valid and reliable the measure is. The aim of the project is to provide initial validation of the Illness Related Distress Scale in a community sample, recruited through online platforms. The objective of the study is to gather initial validity and reliability data for the scale.
Semi structured interviews will be performed to determine attitudes and experiences of people living with HIV and health care providers on counseling on feeding options of babies from mothers living with HIV in order to optimize counseling in the future
This study will be used to develop a program to help Latino men who have sex with men obtain pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), HIV testing, and behavioral health services. The project will then involve a pilot test of this program with a community partner.
The purpose of this study is to assess adherence to home-delivered long-acting injectable rilpivirine/cabotegravir (Cabenuva) among people living with HIV enrolled in the Mobile Outreach Retention and Engagement (MORE) program at Whitman-Walker Health due to significant barriers to being retained in care; the MORE program provides supportive services including dedicated care navigation, transportation assistance, and mobile/home-delivered care. The investigators will examine the equivalence of treatment outcomes among patients receiving injectable treatment within the MORE program as compared to those of patients receiving Cabenuva in standard care at Whitman-Walker Health.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the FPI bundled implementation strategy in increasing HIV testing, Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) linkage (e.g., prescription) and knowledge, and condom use/access.
A randomized, controlled, open-label, dose-exploration study to assess the effectiveness and safety of Lipovirtide combined with nucleoside drugs in HIV-infected patients who have not received antiviral treatment before.
Elimination of mother-to-child-transmission (EMTCT) of HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B are key priorities in Indonesia, the fourth most populous country in the world. Despite national guidelines and strong antenatal care attendance, coverage of antenatal screening for these diseases among pregnant women remains extremely limited in Indonesia. The Indonesian government is committed to improving the integration of HIV/syphilis/hepatitis B testing and treatment into the antenatal platform but currently lacks comprehensive evidence on interventions to support this. We will evaluate a low-cost and locally driven intervention based on the principles of continuous quality improvement to strengthen antenatal care and promote screening for HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B. Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), which involves local antenatal care (ANC) teams systematically collecting and reflecting on local data to inform the design and implementation of service delivery, has been effectively used to strengthen ANC in a number of Sub-Saharan African countries but yet to be comprehensively evaluated in ANC services in Indonesia. This approach holds considerable promise for Indonesia, a highly populous and diverse country where a 'one size fits all' approach to the delivery of quality ANC rarely applies.
The purpose of this study is to adapt a relationship education program. The research team is adapting so that it is helpful for Latino sexual minority men.
This study seeks to develop and pilot test a theory-based, integrated technology and counseling intervention to improve ART adherence among sexual and gender minority (SGM) young people living with HIV (ages 18-24) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The intervention aims to improve social support, self-efficacy for taking ART, and teach skills for problem-solving barriers to promote better adherence.
