Background: In a recent randomized trial, six months of financial incentives contingent for recent alcohol abstinence led to lower levels of hazardous drinking, while incentives for recent isoniazid (INH) ingestion had no impact on INH adherence, during TB preventive therapy among persons with HIV (PWH). Whether the short-term incentives influence long-term alcohol use and HIV viral suppression post-intervention is unknown.
Methods: We analyzed twelve-month HIV viral suppression and alcohol use in the Drinkers' Intervention to Prevent Tuberculosis study, a randomized controlled trial among PWH with latent TB and unhealthy alcohol use in south-western Uganda.

pathogenic susceptibility is influenced by the worm's detection of its environment and its capacity to resist and resolve damage following infection. Here, we use a model where worms can sense, but not ingest, the pathogen (EF) We identify that perception of EF without infection induces the stress-response gene further identify that neural and intestinal signaling genes are necessary for induction without active infection. Finally, we show that overexpression is sufficient to extend lifespan with EF exposure, while KO is not detrimental, suggesting that additional expression benefits worms in this condition.
