Evaluation of point‐of‐care diagnostics for sexually transmitted infection on oral PrEP initiation and persistence among young people in South Africa: a randomized controlled study

Journal of the International AIDS Society, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Introduction Pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) services are linked to increased sexually transmitted infection (STI) diagnoses, which may facilitate PrEP uptake. We hypothesized that point‐of‐care (POC) STI testing and treatment would improve PrEP initiation and persistence. Methods Between September 2023 and November 2024, we conducted a single‐
