Global health reciprocal innovation to address mental health and well-being
Over the past two decades there have been major advances in the development of interventions promoting mental health and well-being in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), including delivery of care by non-specialist providers, incorporation of mobile technologies and development of multilevel community-based interventions. Growing inequities in mental health have led to calls to adopt similar strategies in high-income countries (HIC), learni…
Integration of Common Elements Treatment Approach (Ceta) into public sector HIV clinics for unhealthy alcohol use in urban Zambia
In Sub-Saharan Africa, unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) is a growing threat to achieving ‘the last mile’ towards ending AIDS by 2030. Common Elements Treatment Approach (CETA) is a multisession transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral therapy protocol that can treat a range of common co-morbid mental and behavioral mental health problems, including UAU. In a randomized controlled trial (RCT), we previously reported that CETA was clinically effective in re…
Intersection of alcohol use, HIV infection, and the HIV care continuum in Zambia
Through a nationally-representative household survey, we measured the prevalence and correlates of unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) in Zambia and its association with the HIV care continuum. Adolescent and adult (ages 15–59 years) data, including the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Consumption (AUDIT-C), from the 2016 Zambia Population-based HIV Impact Assessment, were analyzed. UAU was defined as AUDIT-C of 3 + points for women and 4 + for …
Evaluation of kidney function among people living with HIV initiating antiretroviral therapy in Zambia
As the response to the HIV epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa continues to mature, a growing number of people living with HIV (PLHIV) are aging and risk for non-communicable diseases increases. Routine laboratory tests of serum creatinine have been conducted to assess HIV treatment (ART) suitability. Here we utilize those measures to assess kidney function impairment among those initiating ART. Identification of non-communicable disease (NCD) risks a…
Alcohol reduction outcomes following brief counseling among adults with HIV in Zambia
Data from sub-Saharan Africa on the impact of alcohol on the HIV epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa is limited. In this region, it is not well understood how people with HIV (PLWHA) respond to alcohol reduction counseling while they are linked to HIV clinical care. We conducted an explanatory sequential mixed-methods study to understand patterns of alcohol use among adults (18+ years) within a prospective HIV cohort at two urban public-sector clinics…
Growth patterns of infants with in- utero HIV and ARV exposure in Cape Town, South Africa and Lusaka, Zambia
Infant growth trajectories differed by country, highlighting the importance of studying contextual influences on outcomes of infants who were HEU
Efficacy of the Common Elements Treatment Approach (Ceta) for Unhealthy Alcohol Use Among Adults with HIV in Zambia
Effect of Enhanced Adherence Package on Early ART Uptake Among HIV-Positive Pregnant Women in Zambia
Point-of-Care Urine Ethyl Glucuronide Testing to Detect Alcohol Use Among HIV-Hepatitis B Virus Coinfected Adults in Zambia
Awareness and management of elevated blood pressure among human immunodeficiency virus–infected adults receiving antiretroviral therapy in urban Zambia
The prevalence of high blood pressure (HBP) and hypertension (HTN), awareness of the diagnoses, and use of anti-hypertensive drugs were examined among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals on antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Zambia's capital Lusaka. Within a prospective cohort based at two public sector ART clinics, BP was measured at ART initiation and every 6 months thereafter as a routine clinic procedure. Predictors of HBP (s…
Validation of Medicaid Claims-based Diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction Using an HIV Clinical Cohort
BACKGROUND: In nonexperimental comparative effectiveness research using health care databases, outcome measurements must be validated to evaluate and potentially adjust for misclassification bias. We aimed to validate claims-based myocardial infarction (MI) algorithms in a Medicaid population using an HIV clinical cohort as the gold standard. METHODS: Medicaid administrative data were obtained for the years 2002-2008 and linked to the UNC CFAR HI…
