Sex Transm Infect

Research Department of Infection and Population Health, University College London, London, UK Mortimer Market Centre, Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK.
Background: Active recall can improve reattendance rates and could increase retesting rates and detection of HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), but the best strategy remains uncertain.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of active recall for HIV and/or STI testing. We searched six electronic databases using terms for HIV, STIs, tests and active recall (defined as a reminder to retest for HIV/STIs) for randomised, non-randomised and observational English-language studies published between 1983 and 2013.

Article Synopsis
- * Out of 253 patients, 58.5% were found to be deficient in 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, with the highest deficiency rates among non-white patients (73.5%).
- * The research indicated no link between vitamin D deficiency and factors like gender, CD4 count, or viral load, but suggested that low serum calcium levels could signal a need to check vitamin D status.
