In a prospective observational cohort study, 61 young adults with confirmed stroke were followed up for 30 days. Socio-demographic and clinical characteristics were collected using a study questionnaire. Kaplan–Meier curves, and modified Poisson regression were performed…
Health Care Worker Perspectives of HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Service Delivery in Central Uganda
Background: Scale-up of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) services in Uganda is ongoing. However, health care workers (HCWs) may not be aware of PrEP nor what offering this service entails. We explored the impact of standardized HCW training on the knowledge and perspectives of PrEP service delivery in Uganda. Methods: We recruited HCWs from facilities that offered HIV-related services in Central Uganda. Using the Uganda Ministry of Health curr…
Adherence to recommendations for ART and targeted PrEP use among HIV serodiscordant couples in East Africa
Half of participants completed the PrEP as a bridge to ART strategy and the majority stopped PrEP as recommended. These findings suggest that targeting PrEP to periods of risk is a promising approach; however, tailoring counseling around aligning PrEP use and HIV risk will be important for optimal strategy implementation
Repeat] testing and counseling is one of the key [services] that the government should continue providing”

A novel symptom cluster analysis among ambulatory HIV/Aids patients in Uganda
Symptom clusters are gaining importance given HIV/AIDS patients experience multiple, concurrent symptoms. This study aimed to: determine clusters of patients with similar symptom combinations; describe symptom combinations distinguishing the clusters; and evaluate the clusters regarding patient socio-demographic, disease and treatment characteristics, quality of life (QOL) and functional performance. This was a cross-sectional study of 302 adult …
Antiretroviral Prophylaxis for HIV Prevention in Heterosexual Men and Women
BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral preexposure prophylaxis is a promising approach for preventing human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in heterosexual populations. METHODS: We conducted a randomized trial of oral antiretroviral therapy for use as preexposure prophylaxis among HIV-1-serodiscordant heterosexual couples from Kenya and Uganda. The HIV-1-seronegative partner in each couple was randomly assigned to one of three study regimens-…
Depression, Alcohol Use and Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy in Sub-Saharan Africa
Improving adherence to antiretroviral therapy in sub-Saharan African HIV-positive populations
With the increasing access to antiretroviral therapy in sub-Saharan African HIV-positive populations, it is important to find additional simple, effective, and feasible methods of improving and maintaining adequately high levels of adherence. In this study, we undertook the development, testing, implementation, and evaluation of various adherence support interventions at four sites in Uganda. A one-group pre- and post-intervention design was empl…

P2-484 Diagnosis of smear negative pulmonary tuberculosis in low and middle income countries
Introduction Diagnosis in of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in resource-limited settings relies heavily on detection of bacilli on sputum smears however HIV positive patients often have smear-negative disease. A new WHO diagnostic algorithm was developed to improve PTB diagnosis in HIV-prevalent resource-limited settings (integrated, expedited pathway with 2 rather than 3 smears in each set and no diagnostic antibiotic trial). We evaluated performa…
