Adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is critical for HIV treatment success, yet the impact of tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT) remains inadequately understood. Using observational data from 4152 HIV patients in Ethiopia (2005-2024), we appl...
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed HIV from a rapidly progressive and fatal disease to a chronic disease with limited impact on life expectancy. However, people living with HIV(PLWHs) faced high critical illness risk due to the increased pr...
Failure to rapidly diagnose tuberculosis disease (TB) and initiate treatment is a driving factor of TB as a leading cause of death in children. Current TB diagnostic assays have poor performance in children, thus a global priority is the identificati...
BACKGROUND: Malaysia, an upper middle-income country in the Asia-Pacific region, has an HIV epidemic that has transitioned from needle sharing to sexual transmission, mainly in men who have sex with men (MSM). MSM are the most vulnerable population f...
Artificial intelligence (AI) holds significant potential to transform HIV prevention and treatment through the application of advanced technologies such as machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and generative AI (Gen AI). These technologies can ...

BACKGROUND: Adherence with Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) reduces viral load, as well as HIV-related morbidity and mortality. Despite the expanded availability of ART, non-adherence remains a series problem, leads increased viral load, a decline CD4 c...
BACKGROUND: It remains unclear whether the existing health care services reflect the HIV care continuum, which underscores the need for integrated care beyond viral suppression.
This study assesses the influence of social support, self-esteem, depression, and education on psychological resilience among men who have sex with men (MSM) to inform policy-making. Data were collected from 1,070 MSM via an online survey in Zhejiang...
OBJECTIVE: With survival steadily improving among people living with HIV(PLWH), quality of life (QoL) has emerged as the ultimate benchmark of therapeutic success. We therefore aimed to develop and validate machine learning models that predict QoL tr...
BACKGROUND: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) prevents HIV transmission but has low uptake among women. Identifying women who could benefit from PrEP remains a challenge. This study developed a women-specific model to...
