Applying implementation science frameworks to understand why fisherfolk continue or discontinue pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention in Uganda
INTRODUCTION: In Uganda, fisherfolk have an HIV prevalence between 15% and 40%, significantly higher than the national average of 5.5%. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is effective in preventing HIV but faces challenges in uptake and continuation among fisherfolk. This study explores factors influencing PrEP continuation and discontinuation among fisherfolk in Uganda using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). METHODS: Pa…
Enhanced Oral Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Implementation for Ugandan Fisherfolk
Mobile populations such as fisherfolk show high HIV incidence and prevalence. We pilot-tested implementation strategies to enhance pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake and adherence in the context of healthcare outreach events in two mainland fisherfolk communities on Lake Victoria, Uganda from September 2021 to February 2022. The implementation strategies included PrEP adherence supporters (selected from PrEP users' social networks), community…
Low acceptance of intimate partner violence by pregnant women in Uganda predicts higher uptake of HIV self-testing among their male partners
Introduction : Heterosexual couples are at high risk for HIV acquisition in sub-Saharan Africa, and HIV self-testing (HST) is an additional approach to expand access to HIV testing services. However, it is not well known how gender equality is associated with HST. Methods : We used intervention-arm data from a cluster-randomised controlled HST intervention trial ( N = 1 618) conducted in Uganda to determine the association between attitudes towar…
The Intersection of Inequitable Gender Norm Endorsement and HIV Stigma
A qualitative study on alcohol consumption and HIV treatment adherence among men living with HIV in Ugandan fishing communities
Ugandan fishing communities are dually burdened with high rates of HIV and alcohol use. This qualitative study explores context and motivation of alcohol consumption, and alcohol's effect on antiretroviral treatment (ART) adherence, among male fisherfolk living with HIV in Wakiso District, Uganda. We conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with 30 men in HIV care and on ART, and used a thematic analysis approach for analysis. Alcohol use wa…
HIV testing preferences among pregnant women attending antenatal care and their male partners
HIV testing rates remain stubbornly low among men - a crucial target population for reaching the ambitious global and regional goals of the HIV programme. In an era of declining donor funding, identifying cost-effective strategies to increase testing rates amongst men remains paramount. Antenatal care is an effective entry-point for the delivery of HIV testing services for women, and partner testing presents an important opportunity to reach thei…
Masculinity and engagement in HIV care among male fisherfolk on HIV treatment in Uganda
This study explored the intersection of masculinity and HIV care engagement among fishermen and other male fisherfolk on antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Wakiso District, Uganda. We conducted 30 in-depth interviews with men on ART recruited from HIV treatment sites and used a thematic analysis approach. Since HIV diagnosis and ART initiation, men had adopted masculine identities more conducive to HIV care engagement. The masculine roles of worker …
HIV fatalism and engagement in transactional sex among Ugandan fisherfolk living with HIV
HIV fatalism, or the belief that HIV acquisition and mortality is out of one's control, is thought to contribute to HIV risk in fishing populations in East Africa. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the association between fatalism and sexual risk behaviours (unprotected sex, engagement in transactional sex), beyond the influence of other known HIV risk factors (e.g. food insecurity, mobility), and identify demographic…
‘If I had not taken it [HIVST kit] home, my husband would not have come to the facility to test for HIV’
BACKGROUND: HIV self-testing (HIVST) can improve HIV-testing rates in 'hard-to-reach' populations, including men. We explored HIVST perceptions, delivery strategies, and post-test experiences among pregnant women and their male partners in Central Uganda. METHODS: This was a qualitative study implemented as part of a pilot, cluster-randomized oral HIVST intervention trial among 1,514 pregnant women attending antenatal care services at three healt…
Multi-level Determinants of Clinic Attendance and Antiretroviral Treatment Adherence Among Fishermen Living with HIV/Aids in Communities on Lake Victoria, Uganda
A Comparison of Home-Based Versus Outreach Event-Based Community HIV Testing in Ugandan Fisherfolk Communities
Barriers to Linkage to HIV Care in Ugandan Fisherfolk Communities
