• Perceptions About the Relationship Between HIV, Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), and Fecundity in Sub-Saharan Africa

  Open Access•Erica Sedlander, Alison M El Ayadi et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS and Behavior•2026

  Añadir item

  Advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART) enable women living with HIV to safely conceive and give birth without vertical transmission. However, in sub-Saharan Africa, 1 in 6 people experience infertility and women living with HIV face even higher rates. Research shows that ART and virologic suppression improve fertility/fecundity, yet this benefit is often overlooked in ART adherence education. To map the literature on people’s understandings and…

• Acceptability and perspectives on clinic-based urine tenofovir testing for antiretroviral therapy adherence monitoring

  Ashley R Bardon, Ashley Bardon et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS Care•2026

  Añadir item

  Real-time, urine tenofovir testing may allow for clinic-based monitoring of adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART). We aimed to assess (1) the acceptability of monthly point-of-care urine tenofovir testing over the first five months following ART initiation and (2) perspectives on the implementation of point-of-care urine tenofovir testing among people living with HIV (PLWH) and healthcare providers participating in a randomized controlled tri…

  Mentorship plays a critical role in promoting career development and generating impactful research and programs, yet it is typically considered an altruistic endeavor and a luxury. Mentorship programs are largely unfunded and unsupported, particularly in the Global South. However, they are important in global health given the high need for mentors in many settings as well as the cross-cultural complexities and power dynamics inherent in the field…

• Acceptability and feasibility of a urine-based tenofovir adherence assay for monitoring and providing feedback on PrEP adherence in Kenya

  Phelix Okello, Jennifer Velloza et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS Care•2025

  Objective measures of oral PrEP adherence - especially point-of-care (POC) measures that enable real-time assessment, intervention, and feedback - have the potential to improve adherence. Our team previously developed and validated a novel urine-based POC metric of PrEP adherence. In this study, we sought to determine whether this assay is acceptable and feasible among women taking PrEP and PrEP providers in Kenya. We conducted a trial comparing …

  Despite oral daily HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) effectiveness, uptake remains a challenge. Awareness of one's HIV status and engagement in prevention is essential to interrupting transmission among populations at high risk of HIV. We explored gaps in HIV risk perception, screening, and PrEP uptake among high HIV-risk fishermen living and working along Lake Victoria, Kenya. Data are from the Owete study (NCT04772469), which evaluated the im…

  Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is highly effective at reducing HIV acquisition. We aimed to estimate usage of oral-PrEP, and factors associated with adherence among female sex workers (FSWs) in Nairobi, Kenya, using a novel point-of-care urine tenofovir lateral flow assay (LFA).

  Current antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence monitoring is premised on patients’ self-reported adherence behaviour (prone to recall error) and verified by blood viral load measurement (which can delay results). A newly developed Urine Tenofovir Rapid Assay (UTRA) assesses tenofovir in urine at point-of-care and is a novel tool to test and immediately respond to adherence levels of people living with HIV (PLHIV). We explored PLHIV and health wor…

  Early identification and management of treatment failure on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is crucial in maintaining a sustained response to therapy in HIV infection. However, HIV viral load (VL) and resistance testing, and second-line HAART regimens, are unaffordable to many patients in India, leaving them with limited treatment options. Predictors and reasons for antiretroviral switching, therefore, are likely to differ in setting…
