Viral load change and time to death among adult HIV/AIDS patients on ART after test-and-treat in Northwest Ethiopia: a retrospective multi-center follow-up study using Bayesian joint modeling

Frontiers in Public Health
IntroductionAmong patients infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus who are on antiretroviral therapy, nearly one-fifth develop viral load rebound within 2 years of initiation of therapy. Studies on viral load change are limited in Ethiopia.

Viral suppression rate among children tested for HIV viral load at the Amhara Public Health Institute, Bahir Dar, Ethiopia

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected children represent a very vulnerable population for anti-retroviral therapy (ART) drug resistance. As a global target, 90% of patients receiving ART should have HIV-RNA viral suppression. A threshold

Costs of streamlined HIV care delivery in rural Ugandan and Kenyan clinics in the SEARCH Studys. [PDF]

, 2018
OBJECTIVES/DESIGN:As antiretroviral therapy (ART) rapidly expands in sub-Saharan Africa using new efficient care models, data on costs of these approaches are lacking. We examined costs of a streamlined HIV care delivery model within a large HIV test-and-

Is Higher Viral Load in the Upper Respiratory Tract Associated With Severe Pneumonia? Findings From the PERCH Study. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND.: The etiologic inference of identifying a pathogen in the upper respiratory tract (URT) of children with pneumonia is unclear. To determine if viral load could provide evidence of causality of pneumonia, we compared viral load in the URT of ...
