Background: Several studies indicate that depression is associated with nonviral suppression among persons living with HIV (PLWH) using antiretroviral therapy (ART) worldwide. However, among PLWH with major depressive disorder, factors associated with non-viral suppression remain uncertain. We determined the prevalence and identified the factors associated with viral non-suppression among PLWH with major depressive disorder using ART in Northern Uganda. Method: A total of 30 primary care HIV clinics across three northern districts (Gulu, Kitgum, Pader) participated in the study. Using baseline data from the SEEK-GSP study, a cluster-randomized trial in northern Uganda (2016-2019) that involved 1140 PLWH with mild to moderate major depressive disorder; we examined the demographic, clinical, and psychosocial factors using standardized questionnaires.

Introduction: In Côte d’Ivoire, people living with HIV are estimated to 460,000 with about 290,000 who know their HIV status. Index testing is a strategy for screening unidentified HIV carriers. This study aimed at analyzing the screening of contact subjects of people living with HIV at the anti-venereal health center of Treichville in Abidjan. Methods: We carried out a cross-sectional study from January 2009 to December 2018. The target population was index patients and their sexual partners. After giving their consent, index patients and their sexual partners were interviewed during their medical visit. Data were analyzed using Epi info 3.5.4. The khi 2 test was performed at 5% significance level. Results: A total of 114 index patients and 114 contact subjects (106 sexual partners and 08 children) have been included in the study. The majority of sexual partners were men (sex ratio M/F = 1.5) with an mean age of 43 years (±9.77). 87.7% of index patients lived with a partner. The analysis showed that 87.7% of index patients had disclosed their HIV status to their sexual partners and 94.3% Ms. or Mr., the Department of Public of the of Medical Sciences of Abidjan is studying the problem of screening of contact subjects of people living with HIV that the country is facing. This study will make it possible to propose other strategies to raise awareness about testing at all levels of the health pyramid in order to achieve the 1st 90 of UNAIDS. This anonymous interview will take only 10 minutes of your time. Thank you for helping the scientific community to control the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Côte d’Ivoire.
简介:在Côte科特迪瓦,艾滋病毒感染者估计有46万人,其中约29万人知道自己的艾滋病毒状况。指数检测是一种筛选身份不明的艾滋病毒携带者的策略。本研究旨在分析在阿比让Treichville抗性病保健中心对艾滋病毒感染者接触对象的筛查情况。方法:我们于2009年1月至2018年12月进行了横断面研究。目标人群为指数患者及其性伴侣。在表示同意后,索引患者及其性伴侣在就诊期间接受了采访。采用Epi info 3.5.4对数据进行分析。khi 2检验在5%显著性水平下进行。结果:共纳入指标患者114例,接触对象114例(性伴侣106例,儿童08例)。性伴侣以男性居多(性别比M/F = 1.5),平均年龄43岁(±9.77)。87.7%的指数患者有伴侣生活。分析表明,87.7%的指数患者向其性伴侣透露了其艾滋病毒状况,94.3%的患者是女士或先生。阿比让医学公共部正在研究该国面临的艾滋病毒感染者接触对象的筛查问题。这项研究将有可能提出其他战略,以提高卫生金字塔各级对检测的认识,从而实现艾滋病方案的第一个目标。这次匿名采访只会占用你10分钟的时间。感谢你们帮助科学界在Côte科特迪瓦控制艾滋病毒/艾滋病流行病。

Background: The Sustainable Development Goals commitment to Ending HIV/AIDS by 2030 requires sustained adequate investment. This study sought to examine the association between HIV/AIDS spending and outcomes in Thailand between 2008 and 2019. Methods: A quantitative secondary data analysis with time-series was conducted using a retrospective dataset of HIV spending and some selected outcomes including the number of people living with HIV (PLHIV), incidence and prevalence of HIV/AIDS, the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) and AIDS-related deaths. Data were obtained from a diverse set of sources. Descriptive statistics and univariate regression model were used to analyze HIV expenditure and outcomes. Results: HIV spending per PLHIV rose by two folds from $347 in 2008 to more than $600 in 2019, mostly financed by domestic sources. This increase of domestic resources per PLHIV was significantly associated with better HIV-related outcomes especially in the reduction of PLHIV and AIDS-related deaths through increased number of people receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, the spending per PLHIV varied across the three public health insurance schemes. Comparison of HIV expenditure and health outcomes across upper-middle-income countries shows Thailand is not highly ranked in terms of spending efficiency despite having made good progress. Conclusion: Domestic financing for HIV programs is indispensable for achieving the goal of ending AIDS. Despite significant improvement in HIV-related outcomes, challenges remain in achieving the 90-90-90 goal. The redesigning of payment methods should be considered to increase the efficiency of HIV financing. Other factors related to strengthening the health system should not be overlooked.
