🌟This significant modelling study shows how these programs are crucial to declines in new infections and highlights the importance of programs tailored to serve populations disproportionately affected by HIV, for lowering overall HIV incidence.🌟

With HIV prevalence of around 25%, Eswatini was among the first countries to achieve the 95-95-95 treatment targets, with dedicated programs for key populations like female sex workers. Read more on the impact of this achievement in this study below👇 🔗ow.ly/QoNc50Y83EH

Congratulations to @durstenfeld at @DOM_UCLA and the team on this important paper! @CNICSnetwork

Authors show the PREVENT algorithm from the American Heart Association does not adequately predict #cardiovasculardisease risk in a large multicentre cohort of PWH in the USA & may lead to failure to prescribe statins to PWH unless guidelines change. 🔗 ow.ly/U7iG50X8kez

Examining the epidemiology of Kaposi Sarcoma (KS) in the US between 1996 and 2016, authors found that the KS risk was still elevated among PWH in the current treatment era and that consistent HIV control impacts prognosis. 🔗👉 ow.ly/izKf50X2PBz @MoffittNews

Opioid agonist treatment (OAT) can improve HIV outcomes for people with opioid use disorder. In @AIDS_Journal, @CzarinaBehrends and @BruceSchackman explain the urgent need to evaluate the true cost of providing OAT around the world: bit.ly/46gvFVf

Christopher deFilippi and colleagues describe the risks of sudden cardiac death among PWH followed in a substudy of the REPRIEVE trial, now published in AIDS. Check it out here ⬇️ 🔗👉 ow.ly/yKPL50WQZWK #AIDS #suddencardiacdeath

In our current issue, David E. Vance and Junghee Lee review the role of stigma in affecting social cognition and social interactions in PWH, an overlooked and often misunderstood term in the US. 🔗👉 ow.ly/KXL650WQZHM #AIDS #stigma
