Self-reported and Point-of-Care Biomarkers of Substance Use Measures Among Older Adults with HIV from Low- and Middle-Income Countries
Measuring alcohol and other drug (AOD) use remains challenging in HIV care in low- and middle-income countries, where self-report and point-of-care (POC) urine biomarkers capture different time windows. Among 2,059 people with HIV aged 40 years or older across eight IeDEA clinics (2020 to 2022), we examined what self-reported AOD use (AUDIT, ASSIST) and POC urine tests (uEtG for alcohol; 5-panel drug screen) each capture. Self-report identified m…
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…
Adolescents’ and caregivers’ perceptions of caregiver-provided testing and HIV self-testing using oral mucosal transudate tests in Zimbabwe
Uptake of HIV testing remains lower among children and adolescents compared to adults. This study explored adolescents' perceptions of HIV self-testing (HIVST) and caregivers' perceptions of testing their children using an oral mucosal transudate (OMT) rapid HIV test (caregiver-provided testing). We conducted 31 interviews with adolescents aged 16-18 years and caregivers of children aged 2-15 years who received an OMT test. Participants described…
