A Remote Intervention Based on mHealth and Community Health Workers for Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence in People With HIV: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

A Remote Intervention Based on mHealth and Community Health Workers for Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence in People With HIV: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

With the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV, people with HIV can now achieve near-normal life expectancies [1-4]. At the end of 2021, >50% of people with HIV in the United States were aged ≥50 years, primarily due to the effectiveness of ART [5]. However, the rates of viral suppression among the 1.2 million people with HIV in the United States continue to remain low, with current estimates of approximately 66% among people with HIV, despite the wider availability of ART [5].

Using Digital Art and Attachment Priming in a Web-Based Serious Game to Reduce Pain and Social Disconnection in Individuals With Chronic Pain and Loneliness: Randomized Controlled Trial

Using Digital Art and Attachment Priming in a Web-Based Serious Game to Reduce Pain and Social Disconnection in Individuals With Chronic Pain and Loneliness: Randomized Controlled Trial

For instance, digital art exposure may alleviate pain and decrease social disconnection by inducing positive affect [24,28,30] instead of by simply operating as a visual distractor. Consider that 1-shot exposure to digital art (ie, a Monet painting) decreases loneliness and anxiety primarily by improving positive social affect relative to no art exposure [31].

A Web-Based Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence Intervention (Thrive With Me) in a Community-Recruited Sample of Sexual Minority Men Living With HIV: Results of a Randomized Controlled Study

A Web-Based Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence Intervention (Thrive With Me) in a Community-Recruited Sample of Sexual Minority Men Living With HIV: Results of a Randomized Controlled Study

Reviews of e Health- and m Health-based ART adherence interventions have found that most have pilot or quasi-experimental designs, and the results of these studies suggest a high potential of e Health and m Health approaches to improve ART adherence [21,22]. However, the results of larger randomized controlled trials of technology-based ART adherence interventions are mixed. One study showed significant reductions in plasma HIV viral load (VL) in the treatment arm compared to the control arm [24].

Co-Designing Digital Health Intervention for Monitoring Medication and Consultation Among Transgender People in Underserved Communities: Collaborative Approach

Co-Designing Digital Health Intervention for Monitoring Medication and Consultation Among Transgender People in Underserved Communities: Collaborative Approach

Unfortunately, these groups often have limited access to ART services. Without proper HIV programming, KPs may continue to serve as a reservoir for new infections, hindering efforts to contain the pandemic [8]. There is a need to expand knowledge on the use of digital health innovations in ART delivery. However, there is a lack of understanding regarding the ethical creation and use of these digital health solutions [9].

Finally, the AB advocated for including a patient-facing video to present and compare ART regimen options in an engaging and entertaining medium while minimizing the time required during MCM visits for ART regimen-related education and decision-making processes. The limited familiarity of patient DCE participants with LAI ART reinforced the need for clear, patient-facing educational materials describing LAI ART and directly comparing it with daily oral ART.

Uptake of an App-Based Case Management Service for HIV-Positive Men Who Have Sex With Men in China: Process Evaluation Study

Uptake of an App-Based Case Management Service for HIV-Positive Men Who Have Sex With Men in China: Process Evaluation Study

Treatment as prevention has been identified as an effective strategy to control the HIV epidemic, and adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) is necessary to maintain an undetectable viral load among people living with HIV, thus reducing infection risk via sexual transmission [4].

Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Stimulant Use and Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence Among Men Who Have Sex With Men Living With HIV: Qualitative Focus Group Study

Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Stimulant Use and Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence Among Men Who Have Sex With Men Living With HIV: Qualitative Focus Group Study

Eligibility criteria for the study included identifying as a cisgender man, having had sex with another man in the past 12 months, currently living with HIV (self-reported diagnosis obtained by a health care provider), and currently taking ART.

 A Theory-Based mHealth Intervention (Getting Off) for Methamphetamine-Using Men Who Have Sex With Men: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

A Theory-Based mHealth Intervention (Getting Off) for Methamphetamine-Using Men Who Have Sex With Men: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Meth use is associated with poor antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence and outcomes [31-34] and reduced adherence to HIV postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (Pr EP) among HIV-positive/-negative MSM, respectively [35]. Providing meth treatment to MSM is a public health imperative for addressing HIV/AIDS in the 21st century.
