R., Legnitto-Packard, D., Gruber, V. A., Dawson-Rose, C., Johnson, M. O., Saberi, P. BMJ Open, 9.04.2021 Tilføjet 09.04.2021 06:43Objective Youth represent a population disparately impacted by the HIV epidemic. With most new HIV diagnoses occurring among adolescents and young adults, novel approaches to address this disparity are necessary. The objective of the current study was to describe the Youth to Telehealth and Text to Improve Engagement in Care (Y2TEC) intervention, which aims to fill this gap. The Y2TEC intervention (trial registration NCT03681145) offers an innovative approach to improve HIV treatment engagement among youth living with HIV by focusing on treatment barriers related to mental health and substance use. This allows for a holistic approach to providing culturally informed intervention strategies for this population. Participants and setting The Y2TEC intervention was developed for youth with HIV in the large metropolitan area of the San Francisco Bay Area. The Y2TEC intervention was developed based on formative interdisciplinary research and is grounded in the information–motivation–behavioural skills model. Results The intervention includes 12 sessions each lasting 20–30 minutes, which are delivered through videoconferencing and accompanying bidirectional text messaging. The intervention sessions are individualised, with session dosage in each major content area determined by participant’s level of acuity. Conclusions The Y2TEC intervention is well positioned to help decrease HIV-related disparities in youth living with HIV through its innovative use of video-counselling technologies and an integrated focus on HIV, mental health and substance use.

Therefore, this study aims to assess the status of uptake and identify its determinants using the 2016 Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey data. Method Data of 10,903 Ethiopian youths were extracted from the 2016 Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey. The association between the response variable and the predictors was modeled by multilevel binary logistic regression, whereas adjusted odds ratio and confidence intervals were used to measure associations and their statistical significance. The variation in the uptake of counselling and testing of HIV across regions of Ethiopia was quantified by intra-class correlation. Result The current study revealed that, overall, 34.9% (95% CI: 33.5, 36.2%) Ethiopian youths were ever tested for human immunodeficiency virus. Results show that about 9% of the variation in the probability of being tested for the disease was due to the regional variations. Moreover, having moderate and comprehensive HIV knowledge, being rich, having risky sexual behaviour, having a better educational level, having professional work, being married, owning of mobile, and having access to media were positively associated with human immunodeficiency virus voluntary counselling and testing uptake. On the other hand, being male, following protestant religion, following Muslim religion, and following other religions than orthodox religion were negatively associated with the uptake of human immunodeficiency virus counselling and testing. Conclusion Voluntary human immunodeficiency virus counselling and testing uptake among Ethiopian youths is very low and varies across the regions which might hamper the ambitious plan of Ethiopia to end the disease as a public health threat by 2030. Emphasis should be given to promoting the youths’ HIV-related knowledge through community-based education, encouraging and empowering the youths to participate in professional works by giving due focus to poor youths, and promoting mass media utilization to better achieve the plan.

Available evidences in this regard are controversial and non-conclusive on this potential issue and therefore, we estimated the pooled effect of the proportion of knowledge, attitude and practice of HIV infected African women towards cervical cancer screening to generate evidence for improved prevention strategies. Methods We applied a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies conducted in Africa and reported the proportion of knowledge, attitude and practice towards cervical cancer screening. We searched electronic databases: PubMed/Medline, SCOPUS, ScienceDirect, Web of science, Cumulative Index of Nursing and allied Health Sciences (CINAHL) and Google scholar databases to retrieve papers published in English language till August 2020. We used random-effects model to estimate the pooled effect, and funnel plot to assess publication bias. The registration number of this review study protocol is CRD42020210879. Results In this review, we included eight published papers comprising 2,186 participants. The estimated pooled proportion of knowledge of the participants was 43.0% (95%CI:23.0–64.0) while the pooled estimates of attitudes and practices were 38.0% (95%CI: 1.0–77.0) and 41.0% (95%CI: 4.0–77.0), respectively. The proportion of the outcome variables were extremely heterogeneous across the studies with I2> 98%). Conclusion The pooled estimates of knowledge, attitude and practice were lower than other middle income countries calls for further activities to enhance the uptake of the services and establish successful strategies.

Nataro, Karen L. Kotloff, Myron M. Levine, Sharon M. Tennant, Pedro L. Alonso, Inácio Mandomando Background Rotavirus vaccines have been adopted in African countries since 2009, including Mozambique (2015). Disease burden data are needed to evaluate the impact of rotavirus vaccine. We report the burden of rotavirus-associated diarrhea in Mozambique from the Global Enteric Multicenter Study (GEMS) before vaccine introduction. Methods A case-control study (GEMS), was conducted in Manhiça district, recruiting children aged 0–59 months with moderate-to-severe diarrhea (MSD) and less-severe-diarrhea (LSD) between December 2007 and November 2012; including 1–3 matched (age, sex and neighborhood) healthy community controls. Clinical and epidemiological data and stool samples (for laboratory investigation) were collected. Association of rotavirus with MSD or LSD was determined by conditional logistic regression and adjusted attributable fractions (AF) calculated, and risk factors for rotavirus diarrhea assessed. Results Overall 915 cases and 1,977 controls for MSD, and 431 cases and 430 controls for LSD were enrolled. Rotavirus positivity was 44% (217/495) for cases and 15% (160/1046) of controls, with AF = 34.9% (95% CI: 32.85–37.06) and adjusted Odds Ratio (aOR) of 6.4 p< 0.0001 in infants with MSD compared to 30% (46/155) in cases and 14% (22/154) in controls yielding AF = 18.7%, (95% CI: 12.02–25.39) and aOR = 2.8, p = 0.0011 in infants with LSD. The proportion of children with rotavirus was 32% (21/66) among HIV-positive children and 23% (128/566) among HIV-negative ones for MSD. Presence of animals in the compound (OR = 1.9; p = 0.0151) and giving stored water to the child (OR = 2.0, p = 0.0483) were risk factors for MSD; while animals in the compound (OR = 2.37, p = 0.007); not having routine access to water on a daily basis (OR = 1.53, p = 0.015) and washing hands before cooking (OR = 1.76, p = 0.0197) were risk factors for LSD. Conclusion The implementation of vaccination against rotavirus may likely result in a significant reduction of rotavirus-associated diarrhea, suggesting the need for monitoring of vaccine impact.

Data were downloaded from the AIDS Prevention and Control Information System on May 1, 2019. HIV screening, prevalence, and incidence data were analyzed from 2008 to 2018. The incidence of HIV was calculated from the results of BED testing. SPSS software (ver. 19.0) was used for the analysis. The number of people screened for HIV increased by 229.7% from 2008 to 2018, while the incidence of HIV increased from 1.14‱ (2010) to 1.67‱ (2018), peak by 2015 (2.28‱). The proportion of people screened for HIV in medical institutions increased from 62.0% in 2008 to 67.1% in 2018, while of all positive tests, 47.9% were conducted at medical institutions in 2008, which increased to 63.2% in 2018. VCT and STD clinic attendees, who had only 4.5% of all those undergoing HIV tests, accounted for 23.7% of all HIV positive in 2018. The rate of HIV-positive people and incidence of HIV both increased in Zhejiang Province between 2008 and 2015. The most effective strategy for detecting HIV new cases is screening visitors to VCT and STD clinics.

We report cases of BU-HIV coinfection and the accompanying programmatic challenges encountered in central Ghana. Methods Patients with PCR confirmed BU in central Ghana who were HIV positive were identified and their BU01 forms were retrieved and reviewed in further detail. A combined 16S rRNA reverse transcriptase / IS2404 qPCR assay was used to assess the Mycobacterium ulcerans load. The characteristics of coinfected patients (BU+HIV+) were compared with a group of matched controls. Results The prevalence of HIV in this BU cohort was 2.4% (compared to national HIV prevalence of 1.7%). Eight of 9 BU+HIV+ patients had a single lesion and ulcers were the most common lesion type. The lesions presented were predominantly category II (5/9) followed by category I lesions. The median (IQR) time to healing was 14 (8–28) weeks in the BU+HIV+ compared to 28 (12–33) weeks in the control BU+HIV− group (p = 0.360). Only one BU+HIV+ developed a paradoxical reaction at week 16 but the lesion healed completely at week 20. The median bacterial load (16SrRNA) of BU+HIV+ patients was 750 copies /ml (95% CI 0–398,000) versus 500 copies/ml (95% CI 0–126,855,500) in BU+HIV− group. Similarly, the median count using the IS2404 assay was 500 copies/ml (95% CI 0–500) for BU+HIV+ patients versus 500 copies/ml (95% CI 500–31,000) for BU+HIV− patients. BU+HIV− patients mounted a significantly higher interferon-γ response compared to the BU+HIV+ co-infected patients with respective median (range) responses of [1687(81.11–4399) pg/ml] versus [137.5(4.436–1406) pg/ml, p = 0.03]. There were challenges with the integration of HIV and BU care in this cohort. Conclusion The prevalence of HIV in the BU+ infected population was not significantly increased when compared to the prevalence of HIV in the general population. There was no clear relationship between BU lesion severity and HIV viral load or CD4 counts. Efforts should be made to encourage the integration of care of patients with BU-HIV coinfection.

AIDS, 7.04.2021 Tilføjet 13.04.2021 17:06Objective: Previous studies indicate that transmitted/founder HIV-1 isolates are sensitive to neutralization by the transmitting donor's antibodies. This is true in at least a subset of sexual transmissions. We investigated whether this selection for neutralization-sensitive variants begins in the genital tract of the donor, prior to transmission. Design: Laboratory study. Methods: HIV-1 viruses from semen and blood of two male donors living with HIV-1 were tested for neutralization sensitivity to contemporaneous autologous antibodies. Results: In one donor, semen-derived clones (n = 10, geometric mean ID50 = 176) were 1.75 fold (95%CI 1.11–2.76, p = 0.018) more sensitive than blood-derived clones (n = 12, geometric mean ID50 = 111) to the individual's own contemporaneous neutralizing antibodies. Enhanced overall neutralization sensitivity of the semen-derived clones could not explain the difference because these semen-derived isolates showed a trend of being less sensitive to neutralization by a pool of heterologous clade-matched sera. This relative sensitivity of semen-derived clones was not observed in a second donor who did not exhibit obvious independent HIV-1 replication in the genital tract. A Bayesian analysis suggested that the set of semen sequences that we analysed originated from a blood sequence. Conclusions: In some instances, selection for neutralization sensitive variants during HIV-1 transmission begins in the genital tract of the donor and this may be driven by independent HIV-1 replication in this compartment. Thus, a shift in the selective milieu in the male genital tract allows outgrowth of neutralization-sensitive HIV-1 variants, shaping the population of isolates available for transmission to a new host.

Epicardial fat may play a unique role in promoting coronary atherosclerosis. We measured epicardial fat in participants living with HIV and controls and investigated its association with coronary plaque volume and low attenuation plaque, a marker of plaque vulnerability. Design: This is a cross sectional study, nested in the Canadian HIV and Aging Cohort Study, a large prospective cohort actively following participants with HIV and controls. Participants with low/intermediate cardiovascular risk without symptoms/history of CAD were invited to undergo cardiac computed tomography (CT). Methods: Volume of epicardial fat, coronary plaque and low attenuation component of the plaque were measured. Association between epicardial fat, coronary plaque volume and low attenuation component was tested using adjusted regression analysis. Results: A total of 169 participants with HIV and 81 controls underwent cardiac CT. Participants with HIV had a greater epicardial fat volume compared to controls (p = 0.019). In participants with HIV, epicardial fat volume was positively associated with duration of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) (β=2.19, p = 0.004). After adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors, epicardial fat volume was positively associated to non-calcified plaque volume (OR = 1.09, p = 0.028) and to the low attenuation plaque component portion (β=0.38, p = 0.026). Conclusion: The association of epicardial fat volume to non-calcified plaque volume and to low attenuation component plaque may suggest a potential mechanism by which epicardial fat could be a silent driver of CAD in the HIV population.

Interventions can address these gaps, but it is unknown how public health initiatives should invest prevention funds into these interventions to maximize their population impact. Design: We used a stochastic network-based HIV transmission model for MSM in the Atlanta area paired with an economic budget optimization model. Methods: The model simulated MSM participating in up to three real-world PrEP cascade interventions designed to improve initiation, adherence, or persistence. The primary outcome was infections averted over 10 years. The budget optimization model identified the investment combination under different budgets that maximized this outcome given intervention costs from a payer perspective. Results: From the base 15% PrEP coverage level, the three interventions could increase coverage to 27%, resulting in 12.3% of infections averted over 10 years. Uptake of each intervention was interdependent: maximal use of the adherence and persistence interventions depended on new PrEP users generated by the initiation intervention. As the budget increased, optimal investment involved a mixture of the initiation and persistence interventions, but not the adherence intervention. If adherence intervention costs were halved, the optimal investment was roughly equal across interventions. Conclusions: Investments into the PrEP cascade through initiatives should account for the interactions of the interventions as they are collectively deployed. Given current intervention efficacy estimates, the total population impact of each intervention may be improved with greater total budgets or reduced intervention costs. Correspondence to Samuel M.

AIDS, 7.04.2021 Tilføjet 13.04.2021 17:06Objective: The objective of this study was to compare HIV-negative cisgender women (CGW) with MSM for mucosal tissue differences in pharmacokinetics, HIV infectivity and cell phenotype. Design: A substudy of HPTN 069/ACTG A5305, 48-week study of three oral candidate preexposure prophylaxis regimens: maraviroc, maraviroc/emtricitabine and maraviroc/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) compared with a TDF/emtricitabine control group. Methods: Plasma, peripheral blood mononuclear cells and cervical and colorectal tissue biopsies were collected at Baseline (no drug), Week 24 and 48 (on drug), and Week 49 (1-week postdrug). Drug concentrations were assessed in all matrices. HIV infectivity was assessed using tissue biopsy ‘explants’ challenged with HIV ex vivo followed by HIV p24 measurement. Flow cytometry evaluated colorectal cell phenotype. Results: Thirty-seven CGW and 54 MSM participated. CGW's colorectal explant p24 was higher than MSM before (0.31 log10, P = 0.046), during (1.01-1.19 log10, P = 0.016) and one week after (0.61 log10, P = 0.011) study drug dosing. Pooling regimens, cervical explant p24 did not differ among visits.

AIDS, 7.04.2021 Tilføjet 13.04.2021 17:06Treatment with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been associated with hypophosphatemia mainly due to injury of the renal proximal tubulus. Studies on the impact of tenfovir alafenamid (TAF) on phosphate homeostasis in PLHIV are limited. Prompted by a patient with phosphate wasting under tenofovir but no other evidence for tubular dysfunction, a retrospective cohort analysis with 102 people living with HIV (PLHIV) revealed that hypophosphatemia remained largely unchanged after switching from TDF to TAF.

AIDS, 7.04.2021 Tilføjet 13.04.2021 17:06Objective: People with HIV (PWH) experience increased prevalence of obstructive lung disease (OLD), regardless of greater observed smoking behaviors. We investigated whether the effect of incident OLD on mortality differed by HIV and HIV viral suppression among persons who inject drugs (PWID) and report smoking history. Design: ALIVE is a longitudinal, observational cohort study of HIV-positive and seronegative PWID. This analysis included participants who had at least one spirometry measure to assess OLD between 2007 and 2016, excluding those who never smoked (5%, n = 62) or had baseline OLD (17%, n = 269). Methods: Incident OLD occurred when the first pre-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC Læs mere Tjek på PubMed19 Case Report: Spontaneous Carinal Perforation and Bronchonodal Fistula due to Pulmonary Nocardiosis in an HIV-Infected Patient American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 7.04.2021 Tilføjet 07.04.2021 19:16 Journal Name: The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and HygieneVolume: 104Issue: 4Pages: 1222-1224 Læs mere Tjek på PubMed20 HIV-associated nephropathy: Protocol and rationale for an exploratory genotype-phenotype study in a sub-Saharan African population Aminu Abba Yusuf, Baba Maiyaki Musa, Najibah Aliyu Galadanci, Musa Babashani, Aminu Zakari Mohammed, Donna J. Ingles, Agnes B. Fogo, C. William Wester, Muktar Hassan Aliyu PLoS One Infectious Diseases, 6.04.2021 Tilføjet 06.04.2021 20:08by Aminu Abba Yusuf, Baba Maiyaki Musa, Najibah Aliyu Galadanci, Musa Babashani, Aminu Zakari Mohammed, Donna J. Ingles, Agnes B. Fogo, C. William Wester, Muktar Hassan Aliyu Background HIV-positive persons of African descent are disproportionately affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD). Deterioration to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) also occurs in this population at a higher frequency. There remains a lot to learn about the genetic susceptibility to CKD in HIV positive patients, and the pathophysiology of progression to ESKD. Objectives We will conduct an exploratory genotype-phenotype study in HIV-positive persons with CKD in Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Nigeria, to determine blood-based differential gene expression biomarkers in different kidney risk groups according to the KDIGO 2012 criteria. Methods We will consecutively screen 150 HIV-positive adults (≥18 years of age) attending the HIV clinic of Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Kano, Nigeria, for CKD based on proteinuria and elevation of estimated glomerular filtration rate. Among these, two separate groups of 16 eligible participants each (n = 32) will be selected in the four (4) KDIGO 2012 kidney risk categories. The groups will be matched for age, sex, viral suppression level and antiretroviral (ARV) regimen. In the first group (n = 16), we will determine differential gene expression markers in peripheral blood mononuclear cells using mRNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq). We will validate the differential expression markers in the second group (n = 16) using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Using a systems-based approach, we will construct, visualize and analyze gene-gene interaction networks to determine the potential biological roles of identified differential expression markers based on published literature and publicly available databases. Results Our exploratory study will provide valuable information on the potential roles of differential expression biomarkers in the pathophysiology of HIV-associated kidney disease by identifying novel biomarkers in different risk categories of CKD in a sub-Saharan African population. The results of this study will provide the basis for population-based genome-wide association studies to guide future personalized medicine approaches. Conclusion Validated biomarkers can be potential targets for the development of stage-specific therapeutic interventions, an essential paradigm in precision medicine. Læs mere Tjek på PubMed |

There is considerable genetic diversity among viruses of different subtypes (designated A to J) in the major group of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the form of HIV that is dominant in the global epidemic. If available, HIV-1 sequences pre-dating the recognition of AIDS could be crucial in defining the time of origin and the subsequent evolution of these viruses in humans. The oldest known case of HIV-1 infection was reported to be that of a sailor from Manchester who died of an AIDS-like illness in 1959; however, the authenticity of this case has not been confirmed. Genetic analysis of sequences from clinical materials obtained from 1971 to 1976 from members of a Norwegian family infected earlier than 1971 showed that they carried viruses of the HIV-1 outlier group, a variant form that is mainly restricted to West Africa. Here we report the amplification and characterization of viral sequences from a 1959 African plasma sample that was previously found to be HIV-1 seropositive. Multiple phylogenetic analyses not only authenticate this case as the oldest known HIV-1 infection, but also place its viral sequence near the ancestral node of subtypes B and D in the major group, indicating that these HIV-1 subtypes, and perhaps all major-group viruses, may have evolved from a single introduction into the African population not long before 1959.
