Mathematical modeling to assess health and economic impact of cardiovascular interventions and implementation strategies among people living with HIV: SAIA HTN [PDF]

Implementation Science Communications
Background Few economic evaluations distinguish between the cost and impact of evidence-based interventions and the strategies used to improve their implementation. This distinction is essential for understanding whether a strategy is cost-effective, why

Assessing the sustainability of the Systems Analysis and Improvement Approach to increase HIV testing in family planning clinics in Mombasa, Kenya: results of a cluster randomized trial [PDF]

Implementation Science, 2022
Background In Kenya, HIV incidence is highest among reproductive-age women. A key HIV mitigation strategy is the integration of HIV testing and counseling (HTC) into family planning services, but successful integration remains problematic. We conducted a
