Rural‐serving primary care practitioners’ and cardiologists’ care adaptations for cardiovascular services
PURPOSE: Rural populations in the United States have less access to cardiovascular care relative to their urban counterparts while bearing a higher burden of heart disease. To understand rural patients' access to cardiovascular care services, we conducted a qualitative study investigating which cardiovascular services rural-serving primary care practitioners offered, how they adapted care, and what factors influenced cardiovascular scope of pract…
Integrating secondary prevention of rheumatic heart disease into the primary healthcare system in Northern Uganda
INTRODUCTION: Over 46 million people are living with rheumatic heart disease (RHD) globally, resulting in 380 000 premature deaths each year. Effective RHD prevention strategies are known but their implementation in low-resource settings has lagged. This study evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of integrating secondary antibiotic prophylaxis into primary health centres to improve access and adherence to RHD care. METHODS: We conducted a …
Harnessing HIV clinics to deliver integrated hypertension care for People living with HIV in Uganda
Access to antiretroviral therapy has led to better treatment outcomes for aging people living with HIV worldwide. However, in Uganda and other parts of sub-Saharan Africa, PLHIV with comorbidities like hypertension experience fragmented healthcare access, despite existing guidelines for the integration of non-communicable diseases into HIV care. We assessed knowledge, attitudes, and practices of PLHIV regarding hypertension care, and their percep…
Current out of pocket care costs among HIV and hypertension co-morbid patients in urban and peri-urban Uganda
Background Despite improvements to the cascade of HIV care in East Africa, access to care for non-communicable disease co-morbidities like hypertension (HTN) remains a persistent problem. The integration of care for these conditions presents an opportunity to achieve efficiencies in delivery as well as decrease overall costs for patients. This study aims to build evidence on the burden of current out-of-pocket costs of care among HIV-HTN co-morbi…
Cardiology Encounters for Underrepresented Racial and Ethnic Groups with Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Borderline Cardiovascular Disease Risk
Background Underrepresented racial and ethnic groups (UREGs) with HIV have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with the general population. Referral to a cardiovascular specialist improves CVD risk factor management in high-risk individuals. However, patient and provider factors impacting the likelihood of UREGs with HIV to have an encounter with a cardiologist are unknown. Methods We evaluated a cohort of UREGs with HIV and bo…
Lifting all boats
Inequities in global health research are well documented. For example, training opportunities for US investigators to conduct research in low-income and middle-income countries (LMIC) have exceeded opportunities for LMIC investigators to train and conduct research in high-income countries. Reciprocal innovation addresses these inequities through collaborative research across diverse global settings. The Fogarty International Center of the US Nati…
The impact of Covid-19 on cardiovascular health behaviors in people living with HIV
The COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on cardiovascular health behaviors including diet, physical activity, medication adherence, and self-care among people living with HIV (PLWH) remains unknown. Using qualitative analyses, we examined the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiovascular health behaviors among PLWH. Twenty-four PLWH were enrolled in this multisite study from September to October 2020. Individuals participated in semi-structured teleph…
Black men’s awareness of peripheral artery disease and acceptability of screening in barbershops
Participants were overwhelmingly accepting of PAD screenings and reported increased awareness of PAD and propensity to seek healthcare due to engagement in the study. Participants provided insight into barriers and facilitators of health and healthcare-seeking behavior, as well as into the community and the barbershop as an institution. Additional research is needed to explore the perspectives of additional stakeholders and to translate community…
Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2020 Update
BACKGROUND: The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest…

Determinants of hypertension in a young adult Ugandan population in epidemiological transition—the Mepi-CVD survey
There is a high prevalence of high blood pressure in this young periurban population of Uganda with sub-optimal diagnosis and control. There is previously undocumented high rate of treatment, a unique finding that may be exploited to drive efforts to control hypertension. Specific programs for early diagnosis and treatment of hypertension among the young should be developed to improve control of hypertension. The relationship between HIV infectio…
Age, stress, and isolation in older adults living with HIV
People living with HIV (PLWH) have increasingly longer life spans. This age group faces different challenges than younger PLWH, which may include increased stress and social isolation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the age and sex of PLWH are associated with measures of physiologic stress, perceived stress, and social isolation. In this cross-sectional study, we enrolled 102 PLWH equally into four groups divided by age (young…
