The aim of this research was to evaluate a school-based AIDS education programme in Eastern Europe. Four evaluation segments were undertaken: process and outcome evaluations of the training of AIDS educators and of the educational activities for students. While most AIDS education curricula focus on the content of the education, our findings demonstrate that other aspects--including the characteristics of those educators who appear to be most effective, the way in which education is affected by teachers' attitudes, and the cultural implications of transferring programmes from one country to another--also need to be considered, especially in international environments.

Longitudinal patterns of engagement in care among women living with HIV (WHIV) during the perinatal period are poorly understood. We employed group-based trajectory modeling to (1) describe trajectories of HIV visit engagement; and (2) identify predictors of membership in suboptimal care trajectories. Data came from a prospective cohort study across five urban clinics in Lilongwe, Malawi conducted between February 2020 and August 2022.

Objective: This study evaluates changes in HIV transmission and the effectiveness of interventions after two rounds of the Guangxi AIDS Conquering Project (GACP) in Guangxi, China.
Methods: Samples and epidemiological data from newly diagnosed people living with HIV (PLWH) between 2014-2020 were analyzed. Molecular networks were constructed using nested PCR amplification and sequencing of the pol region, and multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with clustering and high-degree nodes.
Development of a core patient-reported outcome set for use in HIV care at the individual patient level in Montreal: protocol for a two-phased multimethod project.

Center for Outcomes Research and Evaluation, Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre, Montreal, Québec, Canada.
Introduction: There is international interest in using patient-reported outcome measures in HIV care to improve the well-being of people with HIV, but the prioritisation of specific outcomes and measures remains unclear. This project's objective is to engage both people with HIV and healthcare, social and community service providers to develop a French and English-language core set of patient-reported outcomes and measures for use in HIV care at the patient level in Montreal (Canada).
Methods And Analysis: This multimethod project will follow guidance from the Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials Initiative and involve two phases.
Sexual and Gender Minority Adolescents' Preferences for HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Social Marketing Campaigns: Qualitative Preimplementation Study.

Jim Pickett Consulting, Chicago, IL, United States.
Background: Sexual and gender minority (SGM) adolescents in the United States are disproportionately affected by HIV. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a highly effective biomedical HIV prevention method, but its awareness and uptake among SGM adolescents are low. There are no adolescent-centered PrEP social marketing campaigns in the United States that have the potential to increase awareness and interest in PrEP.

Department of Public Health Nutrition, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Wollo University, Dessie, Ethiopia.
Background: Exposure to sunlight aids in the body's production of vitamin D, guards against rickets, and treats newborn jaundice. In Ethiopia, the magnitude of sunlight exposure practice varies across studies. Thus, this study aimed to estimate the pooled practices and factors associated with sunlight exposure of infants among mothers in Ethiopia.
