Using the Framework for Reporting Adaptation and Modifications-Expanded (FRAME) to Adapt an Evidence-Based HIV-Prevention Intervention for Zambian Adolescent Girls and Young Women
Despite substantial global efforts, adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in Southern Africa remain disproportionately affected by HIV. In Zambia, the HIV prevalence among AGYW is nearly three times that of their male peers. The Informed Motivated Aware and Responsible Adolescents and Adults (IMARA) program, an evidence-based HIV/STI prevention intervention initially developed in the United States and later adapted in South Africa, demonstrated…
Health promotion messaging reduces HIV risk behaviours and improves repeat testing among adolescent girls and young women in Kenya
Adolescents and young people in sub-Saharan Africa account for about a third of persons newly diagnosed with HIV. Health communication, through mobile health (mHealth) can improve access to sexual and reproductive health information, health services and reduce risky sexual behaviours among adolescents and young people. We assessed the impact of a health promotion messaging intervention on the reduction of risky sexual behaviours among HIV-negativ…
A hybrid effectiveness implementation trial testing an HIV and STI prevention program for mother figures and their adolescent girls and young women delivered by peer leaders
ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT06503666, Registered on 10 July 2024
‘I feel that I should decide on my own….’
INTRODUCTION: Efforts to improve health outcomes among adolescents and young adults living with HIV (ALHs) are hampered by limited adolescent engagement in HIV-related research. We sought to understand the views of adolescents, caregivers and healthcare workers (HCWs) about who should make decisions regarding ALHs' research participation. METHODS: We conducted focus group discussions (FGDs) and in-depth interviews (IDIs) with ALHs (aged 14-24 yea…
An intensive model of care for hepatitis C virus screening and treatment with direct‐acting antivirals in people who inject drugs in Nairobi, Kenya
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment is essential for eliminating HCV in people who inject drugs (PWID), but has limited coverage in resource-limited settings. We measured the cost-effectiveness of a pilot HCV screening and treatment intervention using directly observed therapy among PWID attending harm reduction services in Nairobi, Kenya. DESIGN: We utilized an existing model of HIV and HCV transmission among current and forme…
Accuracy and Acceptability of Oral Fluid HIV Self-Testing in a General Adult Population in Kenya
We evaluated performance, accuracy, and acceptability parameters of unsupervised oral fluid (OF) HIV self-testing (HIVST) in a general population in western Kenya. In a prospective validation design, we enrolled 240 adults to perform rapid OF HIVST and compared results to staff administered OF and rapid fingerstick tests. All reactive, discrepant, and a proportion of negative results were confirmed with lab ELISA. Twenty participants were video-r…
