“…Nevertheless, we expanded the initial literature search strategy in order to include index terms and text terms that are expected to increase the likelihood of detecting eligible studies. Furthermore the focus on CHPI and HIV transmission, the diversity of included study and the fact that almost half of the included studies did not show a significant impact on HIV transmission is comforting with respect to publication bias [121].…”

Combination HIV prevention aims to provide the right mix of biomedical, behavioral and structural interventions, and is considered the best approach to curb the HIV pandemic. The impact evaluation of combined HIV prevention intervention (CHPI) provides critical information for decision making. We conducted a systematic review of the literature to map the designs and methods used in these studies. We searched original articles indexed in Web of Science, Scopus and PubMed. Fifty-eight studies assessing the impact of CHPI on HIV transmission were included. Most of the studies took place in Asia or sub-Saharan Africa and were published from 2000 onward. We identified 36 (62.1%) quasi-experimental studies (posttest, pretest-posttest and nonequivalent group designs) and 22 (37.9%) experimental studies (randomized designs). The findings suggest that diverse methods are already rooted in CHPI impact evaluation practices as recommended but should be better reported. CHPI impact evaluation would benefit from more comprehensive approaches.

The sidelining of the role of journalism (media) in disseminating information and framing public health issues deserves serious attention from advocates, policy analysts, and academics in this field, as it affects voter and policymaker misunderstanding, silence, and policy neglect that impacts how much health issues are included in political decisions (Jessani et al, 2022;Picard, 2020).…”
