Trends in advanced HIV disease, treatment interruption, and viraemia in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
Advanced HIV disease (AHD), treatment interruption and viraemia remain key challenges to effectiveness of HIV programmes in South Africa. Understanding the trends of these measures and their variation across geographic regions can inform more targeted and responsive interventions. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using routine, de-identified data from TIER.Net, a national HIV electronic register. We curated data from 116 primary care cli…
Quality assessment of data for decentralised antiretroviral therapy referrals and laboratory results in the South African national electronic HIV management register Tier.Net
Three Interlinked Electronic Register (TIER.Net) is South Africa’s national electronic HIV patient database, used to monitor antiretroviral therapy (ART) delivery and laboratory results. However, few published evaluations have quantified TIER.Net data quality relative to national sources. We aimed to evaluate how well decentralised ART referral and laboratory result data are captured in TIER.Net. We conducted a retrospective analysis comparing TI…
Impact of increasing CD4 count threshold eligibility for antiretroviral therapy initiation on advanced HIV disease and tuberculosis prevalence and incidence in South Africa
INTRODUCTION: We investigated the impact of increasing CD4 count eligibility for antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation on advanced HIV disease (AHD) and tuberculosis (TB) prevalence and incidence among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in South Africa. METHODS: We conducted an interrupted time series analysis with de-identified data of PLHIV aged ≥15 years initiating ART between April 2012 and February 2020 at 65 primary healthcare clinics in KwaZ…
The impact of the Covid-19 lockdown on HIV care in 65 South African primary care clinics
BACKGROUND: The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on HIV outcomes in low-income and middle-income countries is poorly described. We aimed to measure the impact of the 2020 national COVID-19 lockdown on HIV testing and treatment in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, where 1·7 million people are living with HIV. METHODS: In this interrupted time series analysis, we analysed anonymised programmatic data from 65 primary care clinics in KwaZulu-Natal province…
