Evaluation of HIV antiretroviral treatment adherence in 2019 using anonymized data from the French national health insurance claims data base: The COCOVIH study.

Objective: Adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) plays a key role in achieving viral suppression in people living with HIV. We aimed to quantify ART adherence in the entire French HIV-infected population treated in 2019 and to determine factors of influence.

Methods: People living with HIV were identified using HIV diagnosis according to International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision criteria, HIV-specific laboratory tests, and prescription of antiretrovirals in 2019.

Decrease in CD4 T-Cell Count and Risk of Severe Morbid Conditions in People With Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection With Controlled Viral Load After Initiating Combination Antiretroviral Therapy Between 2006 and 2018.

Background: A previous study showed an association between CD4 T-cell count decline in people with human immunodeficiency virus infection (PWH) with viral suppression and an increased risk of severe morbid conditions. We aimed to assess the risk of CD4 T-cell count decline (hereafter, CD4 decline), determine associated factors, and evaluate the association of this decline with the risk of severe morbid conditions (cardiovascular disease and cancer) or death.

Methods: From the Agence Nationale de Recherches sur le SIDA et les hépatites virales (ANRS) CO4 French Hospital Database on HIV cohort, we selected PWH >18 years old who had been followed up for ≥2 years after viral suppression following the initiation of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) between 2006 and 2018.

Introduction: The urban planning between France and Geneva leads us to target the local HIV epidemic dynamics in its cross-border dimension. We aim to assess its importance while taking into account cross-border movements.Purpose of research: This study aims to describe the HIV epidemic on a cross-border scale by comparing data with two other areas known for their HIV incidence, Lyon and Zurich, using epidemiological data available in France and Switzerland.

DEPIVIH 2: Use of three HIV testing methods in French primary care settings - ELISA laboratory screening versus two rapid point-of-care HIV tests.

Objective: The primary endpoint was to evaluate the use of HIV testing methods by French primary care providers: Elisa laboratory screening, instant result HIV diagnostic test and rapid result HIV diagnostic test. The secondary endpoints were the population screening rate of unknown HIV status consulting during the study period, reasons for screening and for choosing the specific screening method, the investigators' satisfaction with the rapid diagnostic test (RDT) and problems encountered.

Patients And Methods: National prospective interventional study with French family physicians (FP) from December 2013 to December 2014.
