Interventions to promote adherence to antiretroviral therapy in Africa

Interventions to promote adherence to antiretroviral therapy in Africa

An article from the Lancet HIV journal

From the article abstract: "We searched for randomised trials of interventions to promote antiretroviral adherence within adults in Africa. We searched AMED, CINAHL, Embase, Medline (via PubMed), and ClinicalTrials.gov from inception to Oct 31, 2014, with the terms "HIV", "ART", "adherence", and "Africa". We created a network of the interventions by pooling the published and individual patients' data for comparable treatments and comparing them across the individual interventions with Bayesian network meta-analyses. The primary outcome was adherence defined as the proportion of patients meeting trial defined criteria; the secondary endpoint was viral suppression."
