Lower anti-Müllerian hormone levels are associated with HIV in reproductive age women and shorter leukocyte telomere length among late reproductive age women.

Objectives: We sought to better understand factors associated with ovarian aging in women with HIV (WWH).

Design: HIV has been associated with diminished fertility, younger age at menopause, and shorter leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a marker of cellular aging. We herein examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between LTL, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), and HIV.

Age at menopause in women living with HIV: a systematic review.

Importance: With improved HIV care, more women living with HIV (WLWH) are aging and entering menopause. Understanding any increased risk conferred by a potentially earlier menopause transition is important for the care of these women.

Objective: There is conflicting literature regarding the association between HIV and an earlier onset of menopause.

Stability of hepatitis B viral load during pregnancy and implications for antepartum prophylaxis: A prospective cohort study.

Background: We examined changes in hepatitis B virus (HBV) viral loads (VLs) in pregnancy, their association with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), and the associated infant outcomes.

Methods: We prospectively followed 132 mothers positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and their 135 infants from 2011 to 2015 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Outcome measures included association between maternal HBeAg and high (>200,000 IU/mL) or low (≤200,000 IU/mL) HBV VL, changes in HBV VL through pregnancy, infant HBsAg status, and infant completion of the HBV vaccination series.

Exploring the live birth rates of women living with HIV in British Columbia, Canada.

Objective: To evaluate the birth rates of women living with HIV (WLWH) compared to the general population in British Columbia (BC), Canada.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed clinical and population level surveillance data from 1997 to 2015. Live birth rates from 1997 to 2015 among WLWH aged 15-49 years were compared with those of all BC women.

Assessing Maternity Care Providers' Knowledge of the Management of Hepatitis B in Pregnancy.

Objective: This study sought to evaluate maternity care providers' knowledge of the management of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in pregnancy.

Methods: A total of 71 maternity care providers from obstetrics, family practice, and midwifery who were practicing at a tertiary women's hospital in Canada completed a survey assessing their demographics and knowledge of the management of HBV in pregnancy. Descriptive statistics were used to assess the survey responses.
