The WHO recommends the integration of routine HIV services within maternal and child health (MCH) to reduce fragmentation promote retention in care for pregnant postpartum women living with (WWH) their infants children exposed (ICEH). During 2020-2021, we surveyed 202 treatment sites across 40 low- middle-income countries global International epidemiology Databases Evaluate AIDS (IeDEA) consortium. We determined proportion providing integrated MCH clinics, defined as full [HIV
Abstract Introduction Adolescent and youth‐friendly health services (AYFHS) have been promoted as a best practice for adolescents young people living with HIV (AYLH). However, thorough descriptions of AYFHS AYLH remain scarce. We sought to characterize adolescent‐friendly in global paediatric research consortium. Methods Cross‐sectional data were collected from 16 sites the Young Adult Network IeDEA (AYANI) International epidemiology Databases Evaluate AIDS consortium between August 2020...
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality for children living with HIV (CLHIV), gaps in TB screening, diagnostics, management, preventive therapy (TPT). We investigated reported practices these domains at sites caring CLHIV low- middle-income countries (LMICs) within the International epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS (IeDEA) consortium. implemented site survey during September 2020-February 2021, querying pre-pandemic practices. This analysis included LMICs...
Audits play a critical role in maintaining the integrity of observational cohort data. While previous work has validated audit process, sending trained auditors to sites ("travel-audits") can be costly. We investigate efficacy training conduct "self-audits."In 2017, eight research groups Caribbean, Central, and South America network for HIV Epidemiology each audited subset their patient records randomly selected by data coordinating center at Vanderbilt. Designated investigators site...
The impact of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection on pregnancies shows regional variation emphasizing the importance studies in different geographical areas. We conducted a prospective study Tegucigalpa, Honduras, recruiting 668 pregnant women between July 20, 2016, and December 31, 2016. performed Trioplex real-time reverse transcriptase-PCR (rRT-PCR) 357 serum samples taken at first prenatal visit. presence ZIKV was confirmed seven (7/357, 2.0%). Nine babies (1.6%) had microcephaly (head...
Mode of HIV acquisition for adolescents with is often not recorded within routine healthcare databases. Hence, age at enrollment in care used as a proxy perinatal versus nonperinatal infection. Using cohort data from presenting 10–14 years age, we developed logistic regression models to predict likely mode
Little is known about the long-term outcomes of children living with HIV in Latin America. Few studies have examined antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen switches years after introduction ART this population. This study aimed to assess clinical among who started second-line Caribbean, Central and South America network for epidemiology.
Abstract Background Studies examining the association between in utero Zika virus (ZIKV) exposure and child neurodevelopmental outcomes have produced varied results limited by absence of a comparison group. The present study aimed to assess among cohort children born with normal head circumference from pregnant people enrolled Pregnancy Honduras (ZIPH) July December 2016. Methods Enrollment was voluntary occurred during their first prenatal visit at health center Tegucigalpa, collection...
Abstract Introduction: Routine patient care data are increasingly used for biomedical research, but such “secondary use” have known limitations, including their quality. When leveraging routine observational developing audit protocols that can maximize informational return and minimize costs is paramount. Methods: For more than a decade, the Latin America East Africa regions of International epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS (IeDEA) consortium been auditing drawn from participating...
