In the Netherlands, general practitioners (GPs) play a key role in provider-initiated HIV testing, but opportunities for timely diagnosis are regularly missed. We implemented an educational intervention to improve testing by GPs from 2015 2020, and observed 7% increase evaluation using laboratory data. The objective current study was gain deeper understanding of whether how practices perceptions GPs' HIV/sexually transmitted infection (STI) behaviour changed following intervention.We...
This study investigates the hemodynamic impacts of localized aortic valve calcification, utilizing immersed boundary-finite element (IBFE) method simulations with realistic inflow patterns uniform and helical blood flow from left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). We modeled leaflets varying grades assessing their influence on performance, including transvalvular hemodynamics, wall shear stress (WSS) indices, vortical structures. The findings highlighted that calcification significantly...
Abstract Background Late presentation remains a key barrier towards controlling the HIV epidemic. Indicator conditions (ICs) are those that AIDS-defining, associated with prevalence of undiagnosed > 0.1%, or whose clinical management would be impeded if an infection were undiagnosed. IC-guided testing is effective strategy in identifying HIV, but opportunities for earlier diagnosis through being missed. We present protocol interventional study to improve awareness and increase patients...
As highly effective therapy against hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is available with rapid uptake, there newfound optimism for HCV elimination. Nevertheless, certain key populations have a high risk of reinfection, in particular men who sex (MSM) Western European countries. Modelling data indicate that elimination will not be feasible without reduction behaviour, thus supporting the need interventions aimed at reducing behaviour and preventing reinfections MSM.The ICECREAM study an...
