Using human-centered design to explore telemedicine to improve healthcare engagement among individuals transitioning from prison to community in Malaysia
Pilot randomized controlled trial to reduce HIV-related stigma among clinicians in Malaysia via project Echo®
HIV-related stigma from clinicians contributes to global disparities in HIV testing and prevention. Scalable interventions, particularly those reaching clinicians beyond individual healthcare facilities, are needed to reach clinicians worldwide. These interventions are especially important in places like Malaysia where substantial HIV-related structural stigma exists. We tested an intervention that incorporated evidence-based stigma reduction too…
Strengthening HIV Activism Among Clinicians in Malaysia
HIV continues to disproportionately affect key populations in Malaysia, compared to the general population. Lessons learned from decades of research and programmatic experience suggest that HIV activism can be a driver for change. We pilot-tested a tele-training platform, Project ECHO ® for Stigma Reduction (PE-SR), in a randomised controlled trial from July 2022 to March 2023, alongside two comparator groups, i.e., Project ECHO ® -Standard (PE-S…
Pre-implementation findings on the barriers and potential solutions to initiate same-day antiretroviral therapy among people who inject drugs in Malaysia
HIV Activist Identity, Commitment, and Orientation Scale (Haicos)
Barriers and Facilitators to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis by Men Who Have Sex with Men and Community Stakeholders in Malaysia
Current barriers may be overcome through governmental subsidy for PrEP and evidence-informed shared decision aids to support both MSM and PrEP providers
I want the doctors to know that I am as bright as a candle”
Acceptability and Feasibility of Online, Asynchronous Photovoice with Key Populations and People Living with HIV
Allah will decide my life and death”
We examined the influence of religion and spirituality on HIV risk contexts through in-depth interviews with men who have sex with men (n = 10) and female commercial sex workers (n = 10) in Malaysia. Using a grounded theory approach, five themes emerged from the interviews: (a) religion encourages caring for health, (b) health is influenced by a higher power, (c) prayer is a conduit to health assistance, (d) stigma is compounded by religion but i…
Opening up the HIV epidemic
HIV status disclosure plays a crucial role in reducing risk behaviors of drug and sexual partners and thereby limiting HIV transmission. As people who inject drugs (PWID) bear a significant HIV burden and disclosure research among PWID is relatively few, we reviewed the literature to highlight what is known about disclosure among HIV-positive PWID. Searches of articles published from 2000 to 2015 yielded 17 studies addressing different aspects of…
Islam and HIV related social services in Malaysia
We review HIV prevention and treatment efforts involving Islam in Malaysia. The Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM) conducts HIV-related workshops with Muslim leaders and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) communities. A methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) project was implemented in a mosque in Kuala Lumpur, incorporating religious and social supports alongside provision of health services. Additional services includi…
