“…Participants who received reliable family support exhibited higher levels of adherence to ART. This finding is consistent with a study in Kenya that highlighted the positive association between family support and ART adherence [ 12 ]. Furthermore, a systematic review encompassing low- and middle-income countries underscored the importance of support services, including primary care and family support, in improving ART adherence among PWIDs [ 13 ].…”

“…This cross-sectional study utilizes data collected from participants enrolled in a randomized controlled trial of the Adherence Through Home Education and Nursing Assessment (ATHENA) intervention (NCT03397576) [55]. Briefly, incarcerated persons who were Indonesian citizens �18 years of age and HIV diagnosed (self-reported and confirmed with rapid HIV antibody test at enrollment) were randomized to receive the adapted ATHENA intervention [56] or treatment as usual.…”

Assisted HIV partner notification services provide a safe and effective way for people living with HIV (PLHIV) to inform their partners about the possibility of exposure and to offer them testing, treatment, and support. This study examined whether or not PLHIV in prison might be willing to participate in assisted HIV partner notification services and their reasons for and against disclosing their HIV-positive status to their partners. PLHIV (n = 150) recruited from Jakarta's two largest all-male prisons completed an interviewer-administered questionnaire collecting demographic and risk behavior data, and attitudes toward HIV disclosure and partner services. Among those who were sexually active and/or injecting drugs before incarceration, two-thirds (66.4%, 91/137) endorsed provider referral as an acceptable way to notify their sex partners, and nearly three quarters (72.4%, 89/123) endorsed provider referral to notify their drug-injecting partners. Only a quarter (25.1%) of participants reported that their main sex partner had ever received an HIV test. Participants with anticipated stigma were less likely to endorse provider referral for sex partners (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.35, 0.96) and drug-injecting partners (aOR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.29, 1.00). Relationship closeness was associated with higher odds of endorsing provider referral for drug-injecting partners (aOR = 2.08, 95% CI: 1.25, 3.45). Protecting partners from infection and a moral duty to inform were main reasons to disclose, while stigma and privacy concerns were main reasons not to disclose. Most incarcerated PLHIV have at-risk partners in the community who they would be willing to notify if provided with assistance. Assisted partner notification for prison populations offers a promising public health approach to accelerate diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of HIV infection in the community, particularly among women.

“…Research investigators developed these four items based on their previous research in these prison settings and a review of the acceptability measurement literature, most of which is not specific to the unique concerns of people in prison. Although not exhaustive, these four dimensions of initial acceptability (privacy, confidentiality, overall comfort, and accuracy) were considered important measures of participant approval, precisely because these protections are often lacking in prisons and likely influence whether or not people in these settings trust and accept researchers and clinicians, their technologies, and interventions (Culbert et al, 2019; Lazzarini & Altice, 2000).…”

Mobile health (mHealth) holds considerable promise as a way to give people greater control of their health information, privacy, and sharing in the context of HIV research and clinical services. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of an mHealth research application from the perspective of three stakeholder groups involved in an HIV clinical trial in Jakarta, Indonesia: (a) incarcerated people living with HIV (PLWH), (b) research assistants (RAs), and (c) research investigators. Incarcerated PLWH (n = 150) recruited from two large all-male prisons completed questionnaires, including questions about mHealth acceptability, on an mHealth survey application using a proprietary data collection software development platform. RAs who administered questionnaires (n = 8) rated the usability of the software application using the system usability scale (SUS) and open-ended questions. Research investigators (n = 2) completed in-depth interviews, that were coded and analyzed using the technology acceptance model (TAM) as a conceptual framework. Over 90% of incarcerated PLWH felt the mHealth application offered adequate comfort, privacy, and accuracy in recording their responses. RAs' SUS scores ranged from 60% to 90% (M = 76.25) and they found the mHealth survey application challenging to learn, but highly satisfying. Compared with paper-based data collection, researchers felt that electronic data collection led to improved accuracy and efficiency of data collection and the ability to monitor data collection remotely and in real time. The researchers perceived the learnability of the application as acceptable but required self-instruction.
