Women’s Perceptions of Novel 3-D Printed Vaginal Rings for Multipurpose Prevention
Intravaginal rings (IVRs) can be efficacious, user-controlled devices to prevent pregnancy and HIV. Understanding potential user preferences for device characteristics can promote device uptake and use by informing design optimization. We elicited sensory perceptions from a convenience sample of women aged 18-45 years from a large statewide health system to iteratively inform design of a novel 3D-printed multipurpose (contraception and HIV preven…
Understanding the Influence of PrEP Motivations and Concerns on PrEP Use Among Pregnant Women in Lilongwe, Malawi
Survival, trust, and compassion
Background: Members of Black sexual and gender minority (BSGM) groups in the Southern US experience disparities across all pillars of the HIV prevention continuum. Social network strategy (SNS) is an intervention that trains people with reasons to test for HIV to reach out to peers to increase HIV testing and may improve uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). We conducted formative research to design an enhanced SNS to implement within partne…
Understanding PrEP misconceptions and their impact on PrEP initiation and use among pregnant and lactating women in Malawi
Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV remains a challenge in Eastern and Southern Africa. Oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a powerful tool to reduce MTCT, but women face barriers to effective use including those related to inaccurate comprehension of PrEP To understand women’s misconceptions about PrEP and their potential impact on PrEP use, we conducted interviews with 33 pregnant and lactating women in Malawi using PrEP, and ten PrE…
Champion and audit and feedback strategy fidelity and their relationship to depression intervention fidelity
Background: Globally, mental health disorders rank as the greatest cause of disability. Low and middle-income countries (LMICs) hold a disproportionate share of the mental health burden, especially as it pertains to depression. Depression is highly prevalent among those with non-communicable diseases (NCDs), creating a barrier to successful treatment. While some treatments have proven efficacy in LMIC settings, wide dissemination is challenged by…

How Perceived Structural Racism and Discrimination and Medical Mistrust in the Health System Influences Participation in HIV Health Services for Black Women Living in the United States South
There are racial and geographic disparities for HIV in the United States; Black women have nearly 20 times the risk of White women in being infected with HIV, and lifetime HIV risk is greatest for people living in the southern United States. These disparities, layered with the structural racism and discrimination that is more prominent in the south, is a public health issue. The purpose of this article is to share Black women's perspectives of ho…

Interviews focused on stakeholders’ chal…
Female adherence self-efficacy before and after couple HIV testing and counseling within Malawi’s Option B+ program
Adherence self-efficacy, belief in one’s ability to adhere to daily medication, is strongly associated with antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence and preventing mother-to-child HIV transmission. Couple-based interventions could enhance self-efficacy and adherence. We assessed the relationship between couple HIV testing and counseling (cHTC) and adherence self-efficacy using a 100-point culturally-adapted adherence self-efficacy scale (ASES). Sec…
HIV-related stigma, depression, and social support are associated with health-related quality of life among patients newly entering HIV care
Entering HIV care is a vulnerable time for newly diagnosed individuals often exacerbating psychosocial difficulties, which may contribute to poor health-related quality of life (HRQOL) ultimately influencing health behaviors including ART adherence, the driver of viral load suppression. Understanding HRQOL in people newly entering HIV care is critical and has the potential to guide practice and research. This exploratory cross-sectional study exa…
