- Mathematical models to characterize early epidemic growth: A Review (2016, background): “, [101]) have incorporated a time changing risk in transmission by modeling an exponential decay in the transmission rate in a similar way, except that the rate of decay is a function of the time-dependent prevalence of HIV/AIDS over time and is not bounded below by a reproduction number at 1.”
- Modeling infectious disease dynamics in the complex landscape of global health (2015, positive): “The debate was transformed in the mid-2000s, when eradication of HIV through a “test and treat” strategy was hypothesized (98, 99).”
- Impact of HIV-related stigma on treatment adherence: systematic review and meta-synthesis (2013, background): “Although the ‘‘test-and-treat’’ approach [36] has achieved a great deal of popularity in a brief amount of time, observers have expressed concerns that persisting stigma may pose a major obstacle to its success [37].”
- Sexual transmission of HIV according to viral load and antiretroviral therapy: systematic review and meta-analysis (2009, background): “The reduction in HIV transmissibility due to antiretroviral therapy includes estimates from two to 100 times [28], two to 10 times [29], and 100 times [30].”
- Decreases in Community Viral Load Are Accompanied by Reductions in New HIV Infections in San Francisco (2010, background): “Indeed, different modeling approaches using varied assumptions regarding adherence, percent coverage of ART-eligible individuals, survival, duration of infectiousness, and risk compensation arrive at different conclusions regarding the net effect of ART on preventing HIV transmission at the populati”
- The spectrum of engagement in HIV care and its relevance to test-and-treat strategies for prevention of HIV infection. (2011, methodology): “These impediments to engagement in HIV care also pose considerable obstacles to the successful implementation of strategies that suggest that early identification of all HIV-infected individuals (‘‘test’’) and initiation of antiretroviral therapy in these individuals (‘‘treat’’) could lead to dramat”
