Preferences for services in a patient's first six months on antiretroviral therapy for HIV in South Africa and Zambia (PREFER): research protocol for a prospective observational cohort study
Maskew M, Ntjikelane V, Juntunen A, Scott N, Benade M, Sande L, et al.
Gates Open Res . 2024 Feb; 7:119. PMID: 38343769

Comparison of patient exit interviews with unannounced standardised patients for assessing HIV service delivery in Zambia: a study nested within a cluster randomised trial
Sikombe K, Pry J, Mody A, Rice B, Bukankala C, Eshun-Wilson I, et al.
BMJ Open . 2023 Jul; 13(7):e069086. PMID: 37407057
Objectives: To compare unannounced standardised patient approach (eg, mystery clients) with typical exit interviews for assessing patient experiences in HIV care (eg, unfriendly providers, long waiting times). We hypothesise standardised...

The integration of tuberculosis and HIV testing on GeneXpert can substantially improve access and same-day diagnosis and benefit tuberculosis programmes: A diagnostic network optimization analysis in Zambia
Girdwood S, Pandey M, Machila T, Warrier R, Gautam J, Mukumbwa-Mwenechanya M, et al.
PLOS Glob Public Health . 2023 Mar; 3(1):e0001179. PMID: 36963019
Diagnostic network optimization (DNO), a geospatial optimization technique, can improve access to diagnostics and reduce costs through informing policy-makers' decisions on diagnostic network changes. In Zambia, viral load (VL) testing...

Integrating isoniazid preventive therapy into the fast-track HIV treatment model in urban Zambia: A proof-of -concept pilot project
Mukumbwa-Mwenechanya M, Mubiana M, Somwe P, Zyambo K, Simwenda M, Zongwe N, et al.
PLOS Glob Public Health . 2023 Mar; 3(3):e0000909. PMID: 36962979
Most people living with HIV (PLHIV) established on treatment in Zambia receive multi-month prescribing and dispensing (MMSD) antiretroviral therapy (ART) and are enrolled in less-intensive differentiated service delivery (DSD) models...

A controlled study to assess the effects of a Fast Track (FT) service delivery model among stable HIV patients in Lusaka Zambia
Moore C, Pry J, Mukumbwa-Mwenechanya M, Eshun-Wilson I, Topp S, Mwamba C, et al.
PLOS Glob Public Health . 2023 Mar; 2(8):e0000108. PMID: 36962510
Fast Track models-in which patients coming to facility to pick up medications minimize waiting times through foregoing clinical review and collecting pre-packaged medications-present a potential strategy to reduce the burden...

Attrition from HIV treatment after enrollment in a differentiated service delivery model: A cohort analysis of routine care in Zambia
Jo Y, Jamieson L, Phiri B, Grimsrud A, Mwansa M, Shakwelele H, et al.
PLoS One . 2023 Mar; 18(3):e0280748. PMID: 36917568
Background: Many sub-Saharan Africa countries are scaling up differentiated service delivery (DSD) models for HIV treatment to increase access and remove barriers to care. We assessed factors associated with attrition...

How soon should patients be eligible for differentiated service delivery models for antiretroviral treatment? Evidence from a retrospective cohort study in Zambia
Jamieson L, Rosen S, Phiri B, Grimsrud A, Mwansa M, Shakwelele H, et al.
BMJ Open . 2022 Dec; 12(12):e064070. PMID: 36549722
Objectives: Patient attrition is high the first 6 months after antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation. Patients with <6 months of ART are systematically excluded from most differentiated service delivery (DSD) models,...
