Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Perspectives, Sociodemographic Characteristics, and HIV Risk Profiles of Cisgender Women Seeking and Initiating PrEP in a US Demonstration Project.

Little information is known about the cisgender women who seek and initiate pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention in the United States. Adherence Enhancement Guided by Individualized Texting and Drug Levels was a 48-week single-arm open-label demonstration study of daily oral tenofovir disoproxil fumaratel emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) in cisgender women ≥ 18 years old at risk for HIV. Participants were surveyed at screening and enrollment about sociodemographics, HIV risk perception and behaviors, and PrEP perspectives and aggregated into three risk groups according to HIV sexual risk behavior: being in a serodiscordant partnership (SD), engaging in sex work (SW), and having partners with unknown HIV status at risk for HIV (UP).

Results from a Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Demonstration Project for At-risk Cisgender Women in the United States.

Background: Daily oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) is effective for reducing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition among cisgender women. We report results from the first US observational open-label demonstration project of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among at-risk cisgender women.

Methods: Adherence Enhancement Guided by Individualized Texting and Drug Levels was a 48-week, single-arm, open-label demonstration study of daily oral TDF/FTC in cisgender women ≥18 years old at risk for HIV.

Effects of times of collection and different storage methods on the microflora and nitrogen content of poultry waste.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of times of collection and storage methods on the kinds and numbers of microflora and nitrogen content of poultry excreta (waste). Fresh waste collected in the morning had a higher mean count of viable bacteria than the evening collection in both strains of hen studied. Fresh waste samples had higher mean counts than dried ones.
