Systemic inequities, dignity, and trust in the context of HIV care
Open AccessAmanda L Sanchez, Chynna Mills et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for Equity…2025
Adherence and retention in care are key targets to achieve favorable health outcomes for people with HIV. Challenges with adherence and retention are pronounced for marginalized communities facing intersectional structural oppression. Community health worker delivery of Managed Problem Solving (MAPS+), an evidence-based behavioral intervention, has the potential to improve adherence and retention, yet understanding structural inequities affecting…
HIV Prevention Continuum Outcomes Following Implementation of a Municipal HIV Self-Testing Program
Open AccessCedric H Bien-Gund, Knashawn H Morales et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2025
HIV self-testing (HIVST) must lead to engagement in the HIV status neutral continuum to maximize its benefits. The objective of this research was to determine the reach of a public health HIVST program, characterize the HIV prevention continuum following self-testing, and identify correlates associated with obtaining post-test care and discussing PrEP. We prospectively recruited individuals who obtained an HIVST through a municipal program in Phi…
Salient beliefs related to secondary distribution of Covid-19 self-test kits within social networks
Open AccessCedric H Bien-Gund, Molly Sarbaugh et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2024
Background: Widespread access to testing is critical to public health efforts to control the COVID-19 pandemic. Secondary distribution of COVID-19 self-test kits, where an individual distributes test kits to others in their social networks, is a potential strategy to improve access to testing. In this qualitative study, we identified salient beliefs about distributing and accepting COVID-19 self-test kits within one's social network, as well as o…
Antiretroviral Treatment Gaps and Adherence Among People with HIV in the U.S. Medicare Program
Open AccessPengxiang Li, Girish Prajapati et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2023
Approximately one-quarter of people with HIV (PWH) in the U.S. receive coverage through the Medicare program; however, no prior real-world study has examined antiretroviral therapy (ART) gaps and adherence and associated factors in this population. This retrospective cohort analysis used 2013-2018 national Medicare fee-for-service claims data to identify all PWH initiated on a new ART regimen including protease inhibitors [PI], non-nucleoside rev…
Implementation mapping to plan for a hybrid trial testing the effectiveness and implementation of a behavioral intervention for HIV medication adherence and care retention
Open AccessKatelin Hoskins, Amanda L Sanchez et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022
Background: Implementation mapping is a systematic, collaborative, and contextually-attentive method for developing implementation strategies. As an exemplar, we applied this method to strategy development for Managed Problem Solving Plus (MAPS+), an adapted evidence-based intervention for HIV medication adherence and care retention that will be delivered by community health workers and tested in an upcoming trial. Methods: In Step 1: Conduct Nee…
Reasons for discordance between antiretroviral adherence measures in adolescents
Elizabeth D Lowenthal, Rachel Ohrenshall et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2022
Adolescents with suboptimal medication taking may deceive caregivers about non-adherence. We conducted a 5-year longitudinal study of adolescents monitored simultaneously with both easily manipulated (e.g., self-report) and hard to manipulate (e.g., microelectronic data) strategies. Adolescents with repeatedly high adherence on the former and low adherence on the latter were invited along with their parental figures ("parents") to participate. We…
A National Opioid Tax for Treatment Programs in the US
Open AccessRebecca Arden Harris, David S Mandell et al.ARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2022
Two million people have an opioid use disorder (OUD) in the US, 1 putting local and state governments in desperate need of treatment funds. Five states-Delaware, Maine, Minnesota, New York, and Rhode Island-recently enacted opioid excise taxes or fees to generate revenue and curtail excessive opioid prescribing (Table )

Improved clinical outcomes among persons with HIV who quit smoking
Su Fen Lubitz, Alex Flitter et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2020
Quitting smoking among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) is a priority. However, PLWHA and clinicians working with PLWHA are reluctant to use tobacco use treatments out of concern that smoking cessation can diminish anti-retroviral therapy (ART) adherence and quality of life (QoL) and increase psychiatric symptoms. This secondary analysis from a placebo-controlled varenicline trial for tobacco dependence among PLWHA (N = 179) examined if smokin…

Mapping patient-identified barriers and facilitators to retention in HIV care and antiretroviral therapy adherence to Andersen's Behavioral Model
Carol W Holtzman, Judy A Shea et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2015
Andersen's Behavioral Model (ABM) provides a framework for understanding how patient and environmental factors impact health behaviors and outcomes. We compared patient-identified barriers/facilitators to retention in care and antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence and evaluated how they mapped to ABM. Qualitative semi-structured interviews with 51 HIV-infected adults at HIV clinics in Philadelphia, PA, in 2013 were used to explore patients' expe…
Factors associated with self-reported adherence among adolescents on antiretroviral therapy in Zimbabwe
Revital Gro, Robert Gross et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2015
Nonadherence to medication is the key obstacle to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatment success. The group at highest risk of nonadherence is adolescents, but relatively little is known about risk factors for and protective factors against poor adherence in this age group. We undertook a cross-sectional study of 262 HIV-infected adolescents aged 10-19 years on antiretroviral therapy at two clinics in Harare, Zimbabwe, to investigate person…
