Cognitive Functioning and Its Stability Among Young Adults with Perinatal HIV Exposure or Acquisition in a U.S.-Based Longitudinal Cohort Study
The growing population of young adults with perinatal HIV acquisition (YAPHIV) or exposure without acquisition (YAPHEU) warrants investigation of ongoing cognitive effects of PHIV and lasting neurodevelopmental consequences of perinatal exposure to HIV and antiretroviral therapy (ART). Within the US-based AMP Up longitudinal cohort study, 608 YAPHIV and 131 YAPHEU completed the NIH Toolbox (NIHT) assessment of cognitive functioning and provided i…
Enhancing routine HIV and STI testing among young men who have sex with men
This study is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03132415)
Results of a Randomized Wait-List Controlled Trial of Caya
Youth experiencing homelessness (YEH) face challenges that increase their susceptibility to HIV/STIs. Nurse case management is effective in managing the complex needs of populations experiencing homelessness and reducing HIV risk. A randomized wait-list control study conducted between September 2019 to May 2023 evaluated the CAYA "Come As You Are" intervention. This nurse-led HIV prevention for YEH aged 16-25 years focused on the uptake of HIV pr…
Technology-Based Interventions, with a Stepped Care Approach, for Reducing Sexual Risk Behaviors and Increasing PrEP Initiation Among Transgender and Gender Expansive Youth and Young Adults
A comparison of adherence to antiretroviral therapy amongst adolescent patients of the Baylor International Pediatric Aids Initiative Children’s Centers of Excellence before and after attendance at re…
Adherence rates among adolescents to antiretroviral medications are poor and average well below the accepted optimal level of greater than 95%. Attendance at recreational therapy camp (RTC) offers a potential mechanism for addressing these adherence issues. The present study investigated the effect of RTC on adherence to antiretroviral therapy, assessed by pill counts on a cohort of patients from the Baylor International Pediatric AIDS Initiative…
Legal Barriers to Adolescent Participation in Research About HIV and Other Sexually Transmitted Infections
Whether adolescents can participate in clinical trials of pharmacologic therapies for HIV prevention, such as preexposure prophylaxis, without parental permission hinges on state minor consent laws. Very few of these laws explicitly authorize adolescents to consent to preventive services for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections. Unclear state laws may lead to research cessation. We have summarized legal, ethical, and policy consideration…
Relationship between viral load and self-report measures of medication adherence among youth with perinatal HIV infection
Poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) contributes to disease progression and emergence of drug-resistant HIV in youth with perinatally acquired HIV infection (PHIV +), necessitating reliable measures of adherence. Although electronic monitoring devices have often been considered the gold-standard assessment in HIV research, they are costly, can overestimate nonadherence and are not practical for routine care. Thus, the development of val…
Food Insecurity, CD4 Counts, and Incomplete Viral Suppression Among HIV+ Patients from Texas Children’s Hospital
“+Click”
Youth account for almost half of all new HIV infections in the United States. Adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) is critical for successful management, yet reported adherence rates for youth are often low. This study pilot-tested "+CLICK," an innovative, web-based, adherence intervention for HIV-positive youth as an adjunct to traditional clinic-based, self-management education. The theory-based application, developed for HIV-infected yo…
Lowering the Risk of Secondary HIV Transmission
HIV-positive youth experience multiple challenges regarding disclosure and sexual risk reduction, and health care providers need innovative tools that can be used in clinic settings to improve adolescents' skills in reducing risky sexual behavior

Adolescents and young adults account for over 10 million HIV infections worldwide. Prevention of secondary transmission is a major concern as many HIV-positive youth continue to engage in risky sexual behavior. This study pilot-tested " + CLICK", an innovative, web-based, sexual risk reduction intervention for HIV-positive youth as an adjunct to traditional clinic-based, self-management education.
