Feasibility, challenges, and lessons learned in implementing antiretroviral adherence club models in Northern Tanzania
Introduction : In Tanzania, nearly 1.6 million adults were living with HIV in 2022, with an HIV prevalence rate of 4.4%. We piloted community health worker-managed adherence clubs in two clinics in Shinyanga, Tanzania. We previously demonstrated better stability in care and improved treatment adherence following the establishment of clubs. This study evaluated referral back to the facility, feasibility, and challenges to inform potential scale-up…
Lessons for the HIV response from structural innovations catalysed by Covid-19
While much has been written on how the HIV response laid the groundwork for the COVID-19 response, this analysis examined structural innovations used to respond to COVID-19 and assessed their potential utility for the future of the HIV response. Our analysis indicates certain COVID-19-related innovations are clearly relevant and have potential value for the HIV response moving forward. Public–private partnerships that catalysed the unprecedented,…
Factors associated with overweight/obesity in a cohort of people living with HIV over 50 years of age
Changes in body weight in people living with HIV vary by regimen components, timing of therapy introduction (naive, switch) and demographic factors. Our objective was to evaluate weight change and factors associated in an ageing cohort of treated subjects with HIV at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. We found that the prevalence of obesity was similar to general population and was associated with a number of health conditions, which increase meta…
Beyond viral suppression
Similar HRQoL was observed in DSD and clinic-based care. Our research highlights focus areas to identify supporting interventions, ultimately optimizing HRQoL among PLHIV
Advancing global health and strengthening the HIV response in the era of the Sustainable Development Goals
Screening for HIV-related neurocognitive impairment in clinical practice
With increasingly successful management of HIV, focus has shifted away from AIDS-related complications to other chronic co-morbidities. For HIV-related cognitive problems, the true aetiopathogenesis and epidemiology remains unclear. Rather than a systematic review, this paper presents the challenges and the opportunities we faced in establishing our own clinical service. Papers were identified using Pubmed and the terms "screening", "HIV" and "ne…
Patient satisfaction with HIV service provision in NPMS hospitals
A self-completion satisfaction questionnaire evaluating the standard of care of HIV outpatient services was developed as part of the National Prospective Monitoring System on the Use, Cost and Outcome of HIV Service Provision in English Hospitals (NPMS). The questionnaire was designed in conjunction with service users and health care professionals, and piloted in three London and three non-London HIV clinics. In addition to testing alternative me…
Health service utilization in London's African migrant communities
The objective of this study was to examine health service utilization in relation to HIV/AIDS prevention in Ugandan migrants living in southeast London. A cross-sectional survey was carried out, with face-to-face interviews using a semi-structured questionnaire about knowledge and use of health services, receipt of health promotion information and satisfaction with services. One-hundred-and-eighteen Ugandan migrants residing in the London borough…
