Mental health and ART adherence among adolescents living with HIV in Mozambique
Little is known about the mental health needs of adolescents living with HIV (ALWH) in Mozambique, including the potential relationship between mental health challenges and poor antiretroviral treatment (ART) adherence. We examined mental health problems (anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder [PTSD] symptoms and impairment) and their association with self-reported ART adherence among ALWH ages 15–19 in Nampula, Mozambique. The assoc…
Two or more significant life-events in 6-months are associated with lower rates of HIV treatment and virologic suppression among youth with HIV in Uganda and Kenya
Youth living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa have poor HIV care outcomes. We determined the association of recent significant life-events with HIV antiretroviral treatment (ART) initiation and HIV viral suppression in youth aged 15–24 years living with HIV in rural Kenya and Uganda. This was a cross-sectional analysis of 995 youth enrolled in the SEARCH Youth study. At baseline, providers assessed recent (within 6 months) life-events, defined as c…
Social/Sexual Networks of People Newly Diagnosed with HIV in Ibadan, Nigeria
The secret life of young adolescents living with HIV in northern Mozambique - a mixed methods study
HIV-related secrecy prevails among ALHIV, a situation exacerbated by caregivers and healthcare providers. Caregivers play a major role in supporting adherence among young ALHIV, yet ALHIV could also benefit from adolescent-friendly services, including peer support, sexual and reproductive health services and preparation for independent health management. Integrating such programs into ART services in Mozambique may be critical to promoting ALHIV …
Does Venue Type Matter for HIV-Related Risk Behavior in Urban Adolescent and Young Adult Men Who Have Sex With Men
Venue-based strategies offer effective means of targeting men who have sex with men. Few studies have sought to focus on where younger men congregate and understand risk behaviors that may occur at lower (i.e., community centers) versus higher risk venues. Data from 1,311 young men who have sex with men (YMSM) aged 12- to 24-years-old recruited from publicly accessible venues was used to examine the association between venue type (bar/club, commu…
An HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Demonstration Project and Safety Study for Young MSM
BACKGROUND: Young men who have sex with men (YMSM) are a key population for implementation of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) interventions. This open-label study examined adherence to PrEP and assessed sexual behavior among a diverse sample of YMSM in 12 US cities. METHODS: Eligible participants were 18- to 22-year-old HIV-uninfected MSM who reported HIV transmission risk behavior in the previous 6 months. Participants were provided daily tenofov…
“Youth friendly” clinics
Linkage and engagement in care are critical corollaries to the health of HIV-infected adolescents. The adolescent HIV epidemic and adolescents' unique barriers to care necessitates innovation in the provision of care, including the consideration of the clinical experience. Little research has addressed how "youth friendly" clinics may influence care retention for HIV-infected youth. We conducted 124 interviews with providers, outreach workers, an…
Linking HIV-positive adolescents to care in 15 different clinics across the United States
Linkage to care is a critical corollary to expanded HIV testing, but many adolescents are not successfully linked to care, in part due to fragmented care systems. Through a collaboration of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Adolescent Trials Network (ATN), a linkage to care outreach worker was provided to ATN clinics. Factors related to linkage were explored to better understand how …
Profiles of Risk Among HIV-Infected Youth in Clinic Settings
Factors Affecting Linkage to Care and Engagement in Care for Newly Diagnosed HIV-Positive Adolescents Within Fifteen Adolescent Medicine Clinics in the United States
Creative and Tailored Strategies Needed to Foster Researcher-Community Partnerships
The strategies put forth by Christopher et al.1 are consistent with the experience of HIV researchers who are part of the Adolescent Medicine Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions. These researchers (including us) have been working for more than 5 years in 13 urban areas across the United States and in Puerto Rico to help create and sustain local coalitions focused on HIV structural change strategies.2 We've found that having defined research…
