  • Effect of a digital training package on clinical outcomes in Malawi’s index case testing programme

    Open AccessNora E Rosenberg, Nora Rosenberg et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2026

    INTRODUCTION: Training health workers is a common implementation strategy to expand evidence-based interventions. Digital training is a promising way of reaching more health workers, minimising clinical interruptions and lowering costs, but clinical outcomes are rarely evaluated in low-income settings. Clinical outcomes were evaluated in Malawi's HIV index case testing programme through the Package of Resources for Assisted Contact Tracing: Imple…

    Objectives. To analyze War on Drugs encounters and their relationships to health care utilization among White people who use drugs (PWUD) in 22 Appalachian rural counties in Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina. Methods. We recruited White PWUD using chain referral sampling in 2018 to 2020. Surveys asked about criminal–legal encounters, unmet health care needs, and other covariates. We used generalized estimating equations to regress…

  • Positive contact and empathy as predictors of primary care providers’ willingness to prescribe medications for opioid use disorder

    Open AccessLindsay Y Dhanani, William C Miller et al.ARTICLESSM - Mental Health2023

    Introduction: Patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) have a heightened need for quality health care, including access to evidence-based medications to reduce cravings and prevent overdose. However, primary care providers (PCPs) are reluctant to work with patients with OUD and implement medication prescribing into primary care practice. Previous studies have sought to identify potential ways to overcome these barriers, but often utilize intervent…

  • Preferences for enhanced treatment options to address HIV care engagement among women living with HIV and perinatal depression in Malawi

    Open AccessSteve Mphonda, Josée M Dussault et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    This study highlights the importance of peer encouragement to support perinatal HIV care engagement among women with HIV and PND. The results from this study can be used to support intervention development to increase HIV care engagement and improve long-term HIV outcomes in women with PND

  • Relationships Between Stigma and Intimate Partner Violence Among Female Sex Workers Living With HIV

    Open AccessAmelia Rock, H Luz Mcnaughton Reyes et al.ARTICLEViolence Against Women2022Referências: 19

    Violence against female sex workers (FSWs) perpetrated by their intimate (i.e., non-commercial) partners, particularly against FSWs living with HIV, is understudied. Stigma can deplete the economic resources, social relationships, and mental well-being of stigmatized people, which may increase their intimate partner violence (IPV) risk. We quantitatively assessed relationships between HIV stigma and sex work stigma and IPV victimization among FSW…

  • “A way of escaping”

    Angela M Bengtson, Vivian Go et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2020

    Clinic transfers among women in Option B+ are frequent, often undocumented, and may lead to suboptimal engagement in care and HIV outcomes. The reasons women move between HIV clinics are not well understood. We conducted four focus group discussions (FGD) among HIV-infected pregnant women in Option B+ and four FGDs and five in-depth interviews among healthcare workers (HCWs) at two large ART clinics in Lilongwe, Malawi. Mobility and fear of inadv…

  • Beyond mobile phones

    Angela M Bengtson, Wiza Kumwenda et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2020

    Disengagement from HIV care has emerged as a challenge to the success of universal test and treat strategies for HIV-infected women. Technology may enhance efforts to monitor and support engagement in HIV care, but implementation barriers and facilitators need to be evaluated. We conducted a mixed-method study among HIV-infected, pregnant women and healthcare workers (HCWs) in Malawi to evaluate barriers and facilitators to three technologies to …
