Depression among persons with HIV is associated with antiretroviral therapy (ART) interruption and discontinuation, virological failure, and poor clinical and survival outcomes. Case management services can address needs for emotional counseling and other supportive services to facilitate HIV care engagement. Using 2009-2013 North Carolina Medical Monitoring Project data from 910 persons engaged in HIV care, we estimated associations of case management utilization with "probable current depression" and with 100% ART dose adherence. After weighting, 53.2% of patients reported receiving case management, 21.7% reported depression, and 87.0% reported ART adherence. Depression prevalence was higher among those reporting case management (24.9%) than among other patients (17.6%) (p < 0.01). Case management was associated with depression among patients living above the poverty level [adjusted prevalence ratio (aPR), 2.05; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.25-3.36], and not among other patients (aPR, 1.01; 95% CI 0.72-1.43). Receipt of case management was not associated with ART adherence (aPR, 1.00; 95% CI 0.95-1.05). Our analysis indicates a need for more effective depression treatment, even among persons receiving case management services. Self-reported ART adherence was high overall, though lower among persons experiencing depression (unadjusted prevalence ratio, 0.92; 95% CI 0.86-0.99). Optimal HIV clinical and prevention outcomes require addressing psychological wellbeing, monitoring of ART adherence, and effective case management services.
艾滋病毒感染者的抑郁与抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)中断和停药、病毒学失败以及较差的临床和生存结局有关。病例管理服务可以满足情感咨询和其他支持性服务的需求,以促进艾滋病毒护理的参与。利用来自 910 名参与艾滋病毒护理的患者的 2009-2013 年北卡罗来纳州医疗监测项目数据,我们估计病例管理利用与“当前可能的抑郁”以及 100%ART 剂量依从性的关联。经过加权后,53.2%的患者报告接受了病例管理,21.7%报告有抑郁,87.0%报告有 ART 依从性。报告接受病例管理的患者中抑郁患病率更高(24.9%),而其他患者(17.6%)(p<0.01)。病例管理与生活在贫困线以上的患者的抑郁有关(调整后的患病率比[aPR],2.05;95%置信区间[CI],1.25-3.36),而与其他患者无关(aPR,1.01;95%CI,0.72-1.43)。接受病例管理与 ART 依从性无关(aPR,1.00;95%CI,0.95-1.05)。我们的分析表明,即使在接受病例管理服务的人群中,也需要更有效的抑郁治疗。总的来说,自我报告的 ART 依从性较高,但有抑郁症状的患者(未调整的患病率比,0.92;95%CI,0.86-0.99)较低。最佳的艾滋病毒临床和预防结果需要解决心理健康、ART 依从性监测和有效的病例管理服务。
