  • Field validation and application of the luminex triplex HIV assay to estimate HIV prevalence and HIV-1 incidence in Nigeria

    Open AccessErnest L Yufenyuy, Olusola Anuoluwapo Akanbi et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    HIV cross-sectional surveys require multi-layered testing with several tests to estimate HIV prevalence and HIV-1 incidence. We evaluated the performance and accuracy of the newly developed HIV Triplex assay to diagnose HIV-1 and HIV-2 and detect HIV-1 recent infections using plasma samples from the 2018 Nigeria AIDS Indicator and Impact Survey (NAIIS). Plasma samples from consenting HIV-positive (n=2,773) and a subset of HIV-negative samples (n=…

  • Methods for conducting trends analysis

    Open AccessThomas Achia, Ismael Flores Cervantes et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    Our approach can be used to support trend comparisons for variables in HIV surveys in low-income settings. Independent national household surveys can be assessed for comparability, adjusted as appropriate, and used to estimate trends in key indicators. Analyzing trends over time can not only provide insights into Kenya's progress toward HIV epidemic control but also identify gaps
