It’s Not Easy to Ask Peers and Partners to Test
Objectives The World Health Organization recommends social network-based HIV testing (SNHT) to increase HIV testing coverage and improve early diagnosis, particularly among key populations. Although SNHT has shown promising outcomes, implementing this strategy remains challenging. This study explores multilevel barriers to implementing SNHT in Tehran by exploring the perspectives of female sex workers (FSWs), their clients, pimps, healthcare prov…
Challenges and Facilitators in Scaling Up HIV Testing Among Female Sex Workers
HIV testing is essential for early diagnosis and timely linkage to care, particularly among key populations at increased risk of HIV. HIV testing rates among female sex workers (FSWs) in Iran remain low despite the availability of free and confidential HIV testing and counselling services. This study explores the barriers to and facilitators of access to and uptake of HIV testing among FSWs in Tehran. It incorporates the perspectives of multiple …
Notes on Arboricultural and Agricultural Practices in Ancient Iran based on New Pollen Evidence
New pollen evidence from two sites in South-Central Zagros (Lake Maharlou), Southwestern Iran, and Sahand Mountains (Lake Almalou), Northwestern Iran, provide evidence for the emergence of tree cultivation in Southwestern Iran since the 3rd and 2nd millennia BC and upland agricultural activities in Northwestern Iran since 5th to 3rd centuries BC. Juglans cf. regia could have been cultivated firstly at ~ 2500 BC and became more extensively cultiva…
