Thoughts of Death or Self-injury, Non-same-day ART Initiation, and 2-year Incidence of Disengagement from Care Among People Entering HIV Care in Cameroon
Thoughts of death or self-injury and the clinical implications of such thoughts remain largely underassessed among people with HIV (PWH) in Africa. As strong predictors of suicidal ideation and death by suicide, it is paramount to understand these risk indicators, particularly in populations with heightened susceptibility to poor mental health. We aimed to characterize thoughts of death or self-injury (i.e., self-injurious thoughts) and their rel…
Intersectional HIV- and Depression-Related Stigma Among People with HIV Entering HIV Care in Cameroon
Suicide Prevention Training in the Anti-Human Trafficking Sector
Human trafficking survivors report high rates of suicidal ideation and behavior. However, limited training on suicide prevention among anti-human trafficking service providers, stigma, low utilization rates of mental health services, and lack of evidence-based, culturally-congruent interventions create barriers for survivors in receiving needed support. Prior research has identified capacity building in suicide prevention as a critical priority i…
Mental Health, ART Adherence, and Viral Suppression Among Adolescents and Adults Living with HIV in South Africa
We followed adolescents and adults living with HIV aged older than 15 years who enrolled in a South African private-sector HIV programme to examine adherence and viral non-suppression (viral load > 400 copies/mL) of participants with (20,743, 38%) and without (33,635, 62%) mental health diagnoses. Mental health diagnoses were associated with unfavourable adherence patterns. The risk of viral non-suppression was higher among patients with organic …
Coping Strategies and Symptoms of Mental Health Disorders Among People with HIV Initiating HIV Care in Cameroon
Little is known about the coping strategies used among people with HIV (PWH), especially in sub-Saharan Africa, and the extent to which adaptive or maladaptive coping strategies are associated with symptoms of mental health disorders. We interviewed 426 PWH initiating HIV care in Cameroon and reported the prevalence of adaptive and maladaptive coping strategies, overall and by presence of symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Log binominal r…
Qualitative Identification of Intervention Preferences to Support Men’s Engagement and Retention in TB Care in South Africa
Globally and in South African specifically, men account for 56% and 62% of all tuberculosis (TB) cases, respectively. Men are at increased risk of not accessing TB testing or treatment, and having poor treatment outcomes. Unfortunately, no interventions exist to address these issues. Toward the development of targeted, patient-centered TB care and support interventions, we used semistructured interviews to explored men’s social network compositio…
Community-based participatory design of a psychosocial intervention for migrant women in Ecuador and Panama
There is increasing evidence supporting the effectiveness of scalable mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) interventions delivered by non-specialists for improving wellbeing among migrant populations in humanitarian settings. Balancing fidelity in the implementation of evidence-based MHPSS interventions with their fit to the needs and preferences of new populations and contexts remains a challenge when introducing MHPSS interventions in…
Practitioner Experiences Responding to Suicide Risk for Survivors of Human Trafficking in the Philippines
Human trafficking survivors experience elevated suicide risk in comparison to the general population. Anti-trafficking service providers in the Philippines have identified capacity building in suicide prevention as a critical priority given the insufficient number of trained mental health professionals and lack of culturally adapted evidence-based interventions in the Philippines. We conducted a focused ethnography exploring the experiences of no…

AIMS: To examine the prevalence of and associations between food insecurity, mental distress and suicidal ideation in three rural village clusters in sub-Saharan Africa. METHO…
