  • Do men face greater barriers to accessing HIV testing services than women? Might HIV self-testing be the answer? Evidence from a longitudinal survey in east Zimbabwe (2018–2023)

    Open AccessWilfred Ouma Otambo, Phyllis Mandizvidza et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    HIV testing is crucial for prevention and treatment, yet barriers may disproportionately affect men in some sub-Saharan African settings. HIV self-testing (HIVST) may offer a promising solution, but its uptake remains under-explored. This study examines sex-specific barriers, HIV testing trends, and HIVST uptake in Manicaland, Zimbabwe, across three survey rounds pre-, during-, and post-COVID-19. We conducted longitudinal surveys 2018–2019 (pre- …

  • Appraising the HIV prevention cascade methodology to improve HIV prevention targets

    Open AccessLouisa Moorhouse, Jeffrey W Imai-Eaton et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Multiple HIV Prevention Cascades (HPC) formulations have been proposed to assist advocacy, monitoring of HIV prevention implementation and research to identify ways to increase use of HIV prevention methods. Schaefer and colleagues proposed a unifying formulation suitable for widespread use across different populations which could be used for routine monitoring or advocacy. Robust methods for defining and interpreting this HPC formulation using r…

  • The impact of Covid-19 on sexual risk behaviour for HIV acquisition in east Zimbabwe

    Open AccessRebekah Morris, Sarah Gregson et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    The Covid-19 pandemic and associated restrictions have the potential to alter sexual risk behaviours for HIV acquisition with important implications for HIV prevention programmes in sub-Saharan Africa. To date, no large-scale data have been published to substantiate hypothesised changes in sexual risk behaviours. We used longitudinal survey data to assess the impact of Covid-19 on sexual risk behaviours in east Zimbabwe. Data on sexual behaviours…

  • Understanding the determinants and consequences of HIV status disclosure in Manicaland, Zimbabwe

    Open AccessTheodora Goodwin, Sarah Gregson et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2021

    Few longitudinal studies have measured trends and effects of disclosure over ART scale-up in general-population samples. We investigated levels, determinants and outcomes of disclosure to relatives and partners in a large general-population cohort in Zimbabwe. Trends in disclosure levels from 2003 to 2013 were analysed, and multivariable logistic regression was used to identify determinants. Longitudinal analyses were conducted testing associatio…

  • The determinants and impacts of age-disparate relationships on women in Zimbabwe

    Open AccessAlenda Y Chang, Rufurwokuda Maswera et al.ARTICLESSM - Population Health2021

    Age-disparate relationships (ADR) with older men have been studied mostly in the context of HIV and found to be associated with increased HIV prevalence among young women in sub-Saharan Africa. Less is known about the impact of ADR on the broader life course of women. The objectives of this study are to identify the factors associated with being in ADR and estimate the association between ADR and a set of life outcomes in Manicaland, Zimbabwe. We…
