Mental and cognitive healthcare training targeting primary healthcare workers providing HIV services in Africa
Mental health and neurocognitive functioning remain a concern among people living with HIV. Symptomatic neurocognitive impairment (NCI) and mental illness can cause difficulties in daily functioning, including problems adhering to treatment.

A synthesis of available literature on mental health and NCI training provided …
Cognitive Performance, as well as Depression, Alcohol Use, and Gender, predict Anti-Retroviral Therapy Adherence in a South African Cohort of People with HIV and Comorbid Major Depressive Disorder
Depression and cognitive impairment, which commonly coexist in people with HIV (PWH), have been identified as potential barriers to optimal antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence. We investigated associations between cognitive performance, depression (as well as other sociodemographic, psychosocial and psychiatric variables) and ART adherence in a South African cohort of PWH with comorbid major depressive disorder (MDD). Cognitive performance and…
