The influence of fluid resuscitation strategy on outcomes from dengue shock syndrome
INTRODUCTION: The pathognomonic feature of dengue shock syndrome (DSS) is a transient capillary leak syndrome resulting in profound intravascular volume depletion. WHO management guidelines recommend particular parenteral fluid regimens during the critical leakage phase, including synthetic colloid solutions in certain circumstances. We set out to describe the actual fluid management strategies employed in different settings and to investigate re…
Pilot randomized controlled trial to reduce HIV-related stigma among clinicians in Malaysia via project Echo®
HIV-related stigma from clinicians contributes to global disparities in HIV testing and prevention. Scalable interventions, particularly those reaching clinicians beyond individual healthcare facilities, are needed to reach clinicians worldwide. These interventions are especially important in places like Malaysia where substantial HIV-related structural stigma exists. We tested an intervention that incorporated evidence-based stigma reduction too…
Strengthening HIV Activism Among Clinicians in Malaysia
HIV continues to disproportionately affect key populations in Malaysia, compared to the general population. Lessons learned from decades of research and programmatic experience suggest that HIV activism can be a driver for change. We pilot-tested a tele-training platform, Project ECHO ® for Stigma Reduction (PE-SR), in a randomised controlled trial from July 2022 to March 2023, alongside two comparator groups, i.e., Project ECHO ® -Standard (PE-S…
Charting the path forward in Southeast Asia
With a population exceeding 630 million (8% of the global population), the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) accounted for approximately 61 million (7.9%) of global COVID-19 cases and 808 166 (11.6%) of deaths, with case fatality rate (CFR) of 1.3% by the end of 2023 [1]. The actual figures are [...]
Psychosocial risk factors and cognitive decline in people living with HIV
HIV-associated mortality has improved with the advent of antiretroviral therapy, yet neurocognitive decline persists. We assessed the association between psychosocial risk factors and cognitive function among Malaysian PLWH. Data of virally suppressed PLWH (n = 331) on stable ART, from the Malaysian HIV and Aging study was assessed. Psychosocial factors were assessed using the Lubben Social Network Scale-6 (social isolation) and Depression Anxiet…
HIV Activist Identity, Commitment, and Orientation Scale (Haicos)
I want the doctors to know that I am as bright as a candle”
Acceptability and Feasibility of Online, Asynchronous Photovoice with Key Populations and People Living with HIV
Establishment of a hospital-based health care workers surveillance programme to keep them safe during the Covid-19 pandemic
evere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly transmissible virus, making hospitals potential loci for outbreaks and placing health care workers (HCWs) at risk of acquiring the infection. The high demand for hospital care and the associated morbidity and mortality in the early phases of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has highlighted the urgent need to protect the safety and health of HCWs. With over 15.…
